"Salt, tea, copper and iron are things that the people cannot do without. Since the Western Han Dynasty, they have specialized in salt and iron. What they want is a stable and abundant tax source... There is no problem with this strategy, but after thousands of years, especially in the Song Dynasty, trade was prosperous, and merchants were connected. Many wealthy merchants accumulated wealth comparable to the national treasury, and tens of thousands of liters of fighting against the common people are not as good as a big businessman. The so-called way of heaven has damaged the excess and made up for the shortcomings, so we should make money from these richest people and the most profitable industries. Unfortunately, the tax revenue of the imperial court was seriously lagging behind, and at most it was a small repair and a small compensation was useless!"

Wang Ning'an's grand statement, Wen Jifu clapped his hands repeatedly, regardless of his father's black face, and praised: "Mr. Wang is indeed a high-level person, and he made things clear so clearly. But Mr. Wang has always advocated the unity of knowledge and action. It is not difficult to know, but it is even more difficult to do it!"

Wen Yanbo said in a muffled voice: "That's the reason! Merchants' transactions are going on every day. How many people do the court arranges to collect taxes? What should they do if they conceal the reports? What should the tax officials and servants bully the people? Lord Wang, don't you want to cause chaos in the world, right?"

"How could it be!"

Wang Ning'an smiled, "What Mr. Wen said is right. It is precisely in order to facilitate the court to collect taxes and reduce the harm to the merchants and the people that our dynasty implemented the tax-packing system!"

The so-called tax-inclusive system means demarcating a certain area and stipulating an industry, and certain specific personnel first give the tax to the court, and then collect it. The most typical example is that salt and wine are bought by merchants and gain the power of business. Of course, the taxes for salt and wine are all imposed on the price, so the wine that ordinary people drink and eat are extremely expensive and poor!

In the Song Dynasty, large markets were called markets and small ones were called services, collectively called services. The court sent officials to recruit officials, and these officials would also hand over the power of tax collection to local people with power to collect commercial taxes, so that the court could enjoy the benefits.

Obviously, these practices have serious disadvantages, but finding a better solution is not an easy task. Even in later generations, many restaurants and stalls only paid taxes based on their estimated turnover, and they could not find out one by one. There is no need to say about the Song Dynasty.

"Mr. Wen, the situation is different." Wang Ning'an smiled and said: "In recent years, first trade money shops, and in recent years, the bulk transactions in the market have been collected in one go, and they contributed millions of taxes to the court every year. There was never any mistake! Then the Royal Bank was established, and all the bulk commodities in Bianjing were transferred through the Royal Bank. In the past two years, the Royal Bank has extended its business to Hangzhou, Yingtian, Yizhou, Wuchang, Lingnan, and of course, Luoyang."

Wen Jifu continued: "Yes, Royal Bank is indeed very important. Merchants from all over the country can do so without having to carry money when they are trafficked from a long distance. All accounts are processed by Royal Bank, which is both safe and convenient, and they are inseparable from... Wang Xianggong, what do you mean is to use Royal Bank to collect taxes?"

"clever!"

Wang Ning'an smiled and said, "As long as it is stipulated that all commodity trade must be settled by bank settlement, and when bank settlement, the tax payment certificate must be checked, in this case, the merchants cannot escape, at least the big merchants cannot escape! Of course, they can also try their best to deal with banks, but after all, with more bank checks, the effect will be much better. I estimate that with the economic scale of the Song Dynasty, it will be no problem to impose commercial tax of more than 50 million guan a year."

Wen Yanbo didn't believe it very much, "If you say you want to collect it, what if they just bring cash to trade, there is no need for a bank?"

This time, without Wang Ning'an's explanation, Wen Jifu laughed and said, "Dad, bulk transactions are very important to safety. If the court and the bank intervene, they can report it. If it is a private transaction and something happens, no one will deal with it. According to the child, as long as they are serious business people and the taxes are reasonable, they are still willing to pay taxes. There are also some workshops and factories where they are there, and there are evidence to check how much materials and goods they send, and they dare not hide."

"Something makes sense!"

Wen Yanbo frowned and suddenly widened his eyes, "Mr. Wang, if I was not wrong, would the cement workshop also have to pay taxes?"

Wang Ning'an rolled his eyes, "Our shipyard is all paying taxes!"

"this……"

Wen Yanbo has experienced how much money the cement workshop is. After a few months, the benefits of being able to get Wen’s family are more than 170,000 yuan. Although Wen’s husband has a great family, he still has to be blushed and enthusiastic!

"No, absolutely not!"

Lao Wen shook his head like a rattle, and he wanted to cut his flesh from him, so he didn't think about it!

Wang Ning'an was so angry that he turned around several times, "I said to Mr. Wen, why are you so confused? As long as you hold on to the bank, master the cash flow, and have hundreds of millions of yuan of transactions every year, you can easily make more money than mere cement. If you keep an eye on this little profit, you will always be a rusty bun that is ingested in the soil!"

Thunder rolls in the sky!

Mr. Wen has always been known for his shrewdness, but he was called a local bun. He made Old Wen vomit three liters of blood and almost died on the spot. However, his son Wen Jifu, he fought a copper price war with Wang Ning'an. The power of the Royal Bank made him heart-wrenching and engraved his bones!

Over the years, he has really gained a lot of experience in studying and observing the every move of Royal Bank.

He felt that his father’s idea was really a perfect country bun!

What is wealth?

It's not the little money that exists at home!

Wealth is the power that dominates the world. Only when it moves can wealth exert its power.

Mastering the bank is equivalent to mastering the lifeblood of wealth and affecting the flow of wealth. Let’s put it this way, the local rich man who knows that he is making money to save money is herbivores such as cattle and sheep, and mastering finance is predators such as lions and tigers! As for the common people, they rely on the light of sunshine, rain and dew, and are collectively called organic matter plants. From ancient times to the present, they are all...

Wen Jifu spent a whole night explaining this truth to his father. Wen Yanbo finally changed his mind and stood with Wang Ning'an completely.

"Mr. Wen, you will be excited about your decision because you stand with the strong!"

"Strong? Is it you?" Wen Yanbo hesitated.

"I? I just work for the strong."

Wen Yanbo sneered, disagreed, "Who has such great ability to make you, Lord Wang, work? I want to know which monster it is..."

Speaking of this, Wen Yanbo suddenly closed his mouth, his eyes full of horror!

Yes, it's Your Majesty!!

Oh my God, Zhao Zhen is standing behind Wang Ning'an!!!

The old Wenwan Finance is not very good, but the direction of the wind is definitely among the top three in the world. No wonder Zhao Zhen supports Wang Ning'an, and no wonder Wang Ning'an dares to think about anything. This kid and the emperor are already tied together... Wen Yanbo was both surprised and lucky.

Cooperating with Wang Ning'an was also considered as a ship by Zhao Zhen, and then the emperor was guarded by the emperor.

...

From a model of Shilin, a noble husband, to a cadre of the imperial party, to an emperor's minion... Our husband Wen became a traitor, degenerate, became bad, and shameless... There are countless negative words to describe him. Wen Yanbo originally felt that it would be painful for a while, but after a night of sleep, the old man figured it out.

Damn it, what big cloves of garlic are there? How many people want to squeeze in but can’t!

Wen Yanbo quickly found Wang Ning'an and discussed what to do.

After all, this situation is too big. Currently, only Wang Ning'an, Zhao Zhen, and the Wen family's father and son know that the first step is to open up the Qingyan of Xixia.

Just in time, there is another month to be the 10th birthday of the King of Xixia Li Liangzuo. According to convention, the Song Dynasty was going to send envoys to congratulate him.

"Mr. Wang, please recommend someone!"

Wen Yanbo said happily. He thought Wang Ning'an would recommend his disciples, but Wang Ning'an thought for a moment and then smiled: "Let that Sima Guang go!"

"What?"

Wen Yanbo was shocked and thought that Sima Guang was greedy for merit and made a rash defeat in Linzhou. Fortunately, Pang Ji was charged with the crime and was difficult to investigate because the war in the northwest was difficult to investigate. Only Sima Guang was safe and sound, but his image fell sharply in the eyes of the imperial court, and his career might be cut off.

What medicine did Wang Ning'an take wrong and give Sima Guang the opportunity to make contributions? Could it be that he had any collusion with Pang Ji? Or if he did not agree, Wang Ning'an would go to Pang Ji to cooperate?

No matter how much Wen Yanbo wants to break his head, he can't guess that Wang Ning'an has read "Zizhi Tongjian" and knows how powerful Guangguang is!

I thought Wang Ning'an had a collusion with Pang Ji, but Wang Ning'an was misunderstood by Wen Yanbo. He had to keep seven points when dealing with this old fox at any time, otherwise he would have to suffer a loss!

...

A middle-aged man stood by the Quye River and looked at the other side, full of melancholy and complicated... Only success can be achieved in this way, not failure! If it fails, jump into the Quye River and die together with those more than a thousand soldiers!

Guangguang fought towards Xixia with a full sense of determination. He might not be able to fight, but when it comes to being scheming, he compared his IQ. Not to mention the Song Dynasty, I am afraid that for two thousand years, there are not many people who dare to say that they are better than Guangguang...

It took a month and a half before the Song Dynasty and Xixia finally reached an agreement, and Xixia handed over the five officers who launched the war without authorization, dealt with the Song Dynasty, and apologized to the Song Dynasty.

On the Song Dynasty, the Deal was reopened and agreed to give Xixia a trade volume of 300,000 stones of green salt every year. The Song Dynasty and Xixia always maintained peace and did not violate each other...

The news came out. Before Sima Guang could return to the Song Dynasty, the salt prices in the northwest changed three times a day and fell rapidly.

In half a month, Luoyang dropped from 35 pounds per pound to 28 pounds per pound, and it was still falling. Wang Ning'an was very satisfied. He deserved to be Sima Guang, but he was amazing!

If this guy can be included in the account and let him praise himself when he writes "Zizhi Tongjian" in the future, so that people in future generations will admire him and become excited when they think about it!
