Chapter 635 Don't even try to escape
There is a saying that people die for money, and birds die for food.
Although Wei Yingfang and other forces behind the scenes have asked the defendants to plead guilty and accept punishment, it is only their expedient measure. They only want to stop the public trial of the imperial court, lest the matter reach the point of irreversibility, because if the trouble is too big, even if the procuratorate wants to let them go A horse may not be able to do anything.
But they still want to use this half a day to operate again to see if they can pay less fines. After all, this huge sum of money is really cut on their flesh, but Erbi can't give them any more. Any support, because if they want to continue to appeal, the procuratorate will inevitably intervene, which is what they are most worried about.
So they can only find a way to find a relationship.
Ran and egg.
The tax secretary is not familiar with anyone, the tax envoy Chen Ming is a small official from the inner treasury, and no official in the court knows him. After a long time of work, they don't know where to start, and the tax secretary's The attitude is very firm, it is absolutely impossible, and in the end they can only give up in embarrassment.
They don't have the courage to violently resist the tax. After all, they have a very clear understanding of what the tax department is doing in the capital.
If you dare to resist violently, the tax department really dares to collect taxes violently. No matter whether you are a civil servant, a general, or even a clan, no one wants to use their small farmyard to try the taste of a siege engine.
Although some generals of the Yongxing Army were also involved, the soldiers in the barracks are currently very supportive of the Public Prosecution Law, because the Public Prosecution Law is the guarantee of military pay. In addition, last time a group of people wanted to fight against the Public Prosecution Law and were directly fired. This time they didn't even dare to show their heads.
Keep the green hills, not afraid of no firewood.
And having said that, this is not to rob their homes, but to target their income last year.
Of course, in the final analysis, it is still the emperor who is behind the tax department. If you want to fight against the tax department, you must take the moral high ground, or take the reason. It is a dead end.
They never thought of doing this. At first, they bet that the tax department would not be able to find out their accounts, because this is a very personal matter. How could they have imagined that the tax department would send someone to steal their accounts and instigate them accountant.
Of course, the more than 130 tax evaders are definitely not the only ones, and some people have a fluke mentality. They think that the tax department is trying to scare the chickens and monkeys.
Therefore, on the second day, it was still dark, and these people went to the tax department to squat.
But the result made them very desperate.
The scene that happened a few days ago was repeated again, and the heavily armed tax police escorted the three big boxes towards the imperial court.
OMG!
Really endless!
These squatting big landlords could no longer calm down, so they rushed forward. Although they were blocked by the tax police, they still begged Chen Ming for mercy: "Chen tax envoy, I know I was wrong, I am already looking for People have calculated their taxes, I am willing to surrender, please let us go."
"Chen Tax Envoy, I don't dare to evade taxes anymore, we pay taxes, we pay taxes right away, we don't dare again."
All the dignity and face were forgotten, and many people really cried. The five times the punishment was already unacceptable to them, and they might also face investigation by the tax department.
You must know that yesterday's group of people all had a very strong relationship. Those people were able to escape and only paid a fine, but it doesn't mean that they also escaped!
Chen Ming didn't want to talk to them at first, but there were too many crying people. If things go on like this, it may take until evening to reach the tax department. Chen Ming can only say to them: "It will take some time for the imperial court to examine the evidence. During this period, if you pay taxes and pay fines, we can withdraw the lawsuit.”
"Okay, okay, after the tax is calculated, we will immediately go to pay the tax and pay the fine. But... But can the fine be reduced?"
"If it is surrender, we can deal with it lightly."
"thanks, thanks!"
"Thanks to the tax envoy for extrajudicial grace."
These old foxes were so grateful for this "lighter treatment" that they almost knelt down to Chen Ming.
Not cheap!
In this world of martial arts, the only thing that can't be broken is speed!
The tax department didn't give them time to think about the countermeasures at all, and it was non-stop, which directly caused the complete collapse of these big landlords. They dared not bet that their names were not in the box.
The key point is that Chen Ming has been very calm so far. You can turn yourself in, but I still have to sue. This only shows one problem, that is, they really have enough evidence in their hands.
If you don't surrender, you will definitely not be able to escape.
Ever since, all the major bookstores in front of the imperial court are full today.
Although there is no shortage of accountants around them, but there are legal issues involved, they can only go to Erbi.
Lee's bookstore!
".No, no, last May, I secretly sold it in May. I sold it. Don't worry about it, the income is [-] guan. And there's more...!"
A staff member stood outside patting his head and muttering, while an accountant next to him hurriedly recorded.
"Wait a minute!"
Li Min said embarrassingly: "Mr. Liu, why don't you just take out the account, no matter what is on it, we will keep it secret for you, otherwise, I won't be able to get along in this business. If you do something like this, you can do something like this." Pen, it’s hard to memorize, and it’s easy to make mistakes.”
Liu Yuanwai wanted to cry, but said without tears: "I didn't keep the accounts in order to avoid taxes. This time it's all right, the tax department will help me record them, oops!"
Li Min almost laughed, "Then don't worry about Mr. Liu, let the people around you think about it for you, so you can be sure."
Liu Yuanwai immediately tensed his face and said, "Can those people be trusted? You were there during the trial yesterday, and you were all wolf-hearted and ungrateful."
After what happened yesterday, they no longer trust the servants, and they sleep with their eyes open.
It's been such a hard day.
Li Min said: "But you are surrendering yourself now, and this is what the tax department wants to see. Even if there are... there are those treacherous villains around you, don't worry too much."
"That's true."
Lu Family Bookstore.
"Mr. Qin, if you calculate it, it's only about 150 guan, and the tax payment is only [-] guan. Why did you take such a risk in the first place?"
Lu Bangxing asked Qin Yuan with a puzzled expression.
Qin Yuanwai hesitated.
Lu Bangxing asked again: "Could it be that Qin Yuanwai still wants to gamble again?"
"How dare I do this!"
Member Qin said timidly, "Isn't there still a blank box?"
Lu Bangxing looked down and saw that there was really only one category, which was "other income", and looked at Yuanwai Qin again.
Qin Yuanwai said: "There is no need to write where it comes from?"
Lu Bangxing nodded and said, "Yes."
Qin Yuanwai asked again: "Then will they ask?"
Lu Bangxing shook his head and said, "Probably not, because many people have filled in this column, but the tax department never asked."
Qin Yuanwai said: "Here you fill in [-] guan."
Lu Bangxing immediately gasped.
Qin Yuanwai said: "You are filling it!"
"Huh? Oh, yes."
Lu Bangxing wiped his sweat and thought, it is rare that the illegal income is higher than the legal income!What kind of shady business does he have?
Of course, he also thought about it in his heart, but he didn't ask too much. After all, the tax department deliberately made this column to cover it up.
At this time, Chen Ming had already thrown several boxes of evidence to the imperial court, a total of one hundred and four.
"I guess these boxes of evidence don't need to be interrogated." Cai Jing asked suddenly.
Shangguan asked curiously, "Why?"
Cai Jingdao: "Go to the door and have a look. Those big landowners are queuing up to find those pens to calculate taxes. The purpose is to surrender to the tax department before the trial. Maybe we have just finished the trial of these evidences, and these 140 people have already surrendered. .”
Several people looked at Zhang Fei at the same time.
Zhang Fei said: "Look at me, what if these people don't turn themselves in, what should we do? Let's all take the blame and resign?"
".!"
Cai Bian hurriedly explained: "The students don't mean that, but it's just a pity that if there is no trial, then we will learn nothing from the teacher."
Zhang Fei sighed: "That's true, who would have thought that they would be so ruthless that they would have no resistance!"
Shangguan Jun said: "How can you resist? The tax department has solid evidence."
Zhang Fei said: "Actually, they can still resist, but they didn't expect Erbi to plead not guilty in advance, which caused them to be caught off guard. If this continues, Ye Zuqia probably won't have to come back."
At this time, Li Si came to the door and whispered something in Zhang Fei's ear.
"I see!"
Zhang Fei said to Cai Bian and the others: "You guys check first, I have to deal with something."
"Yes."
Wait until Zhang Fei leaves.
Cai Bian said, "Are we serious about investigating?"
Cai Jingdao: "Of course check, the teacher has already ordered."
Cai Bian looked at Cai Jing suspiciously, "Brother, when did you become so diligent."
Before Cai Jing could speak, Shangguan suddenly laughed and said, "Your brother wants to see who else is evading taxes."
A flash of embarrassment flashed in Cai Jing's eyes, but he said: "So what, if you know yourself and your enemy, you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. Understanding these people will be of great benefit to the imperial court!"
Cai Bian nodded and said, "My brother makes sense, so let's investigate."
Shangguan Jun suddenly said: "Do you want to call some students?"
Cai Jing was startled, and hurriedly said, "Let's wait for the teacher to make a decision."
In a wing in the backyard.
"Bachelor Yuan came earlier than I thought!" Zhang Fei laughed.
Yuan Jiang glared at him and said, "You're still laughing, boy, you didn't mention this to me about the reform of the liquor system."
Zhang Fei laughed and said: "We have cooperated so many times, this time it is just repeating the old tricks, so there is no need to inform in advance. Facts have also proved that our cooperation is very tacit."
"Stop!"
Yuan Jiang raised her hand and said quite seriously: "You didn't tell me in advance, and I knew what to do. These are two different things. You have to explain clearly."
Zhang Fei said helplessly: "If this was planned by me in advance, I would of course notify Bachelor Yuan first, but this is really just an accident."
Yuan Jiang frowned and said, "Really?"
Zhang Fei nodded and said: "Although I know the situation of the taxation department, I don't know how they will deal with it. Moreover, there is another very important link here, that is, the procuratorate. If there is no strong intervention by the procuratorate, there will be no will be this result.
And I didn't discuss it with the procuratorate before. It was Fang Erbi who came to the door first. During the discussion, they raised these issues, and Prosecutor Su and I thought of this. "
"Let's believe you for now." Yuan Jiang looked at Zhang Fei, saw that he didn't seem to be lying, and he knew Su Zhe's character, and asked, "Then do you have a solution?"
Zhang Fei asked back: "What does Bachelor Yuan think about this?"
Yuan Jiang stroked his beard, "To tell you the truth, I discussed this matter with the prefect Cai last night. Since we want to cooperate with the tax department to collect taxes, we can only open it further so that more people can own wine. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to solve this problem.”
Now the government mainly controls the brewing of most of the koji, and the brewers must buy the koji from the government to make wine. If they brew koji privately, it is classified as bootlegging.
However, how can rural households afford the government's liquor.
In order to deal with this, the government gave some large restaurants the right to brew distiller's yeast by buying them, and used businessmen's means to make up for this. However, only five restaurants in Hezhong Prefecture have the right to brew distiller's yeast, all of which are monopolistic. Yes, because if you want to buy the right to brew distiller's yeast, you have to spend a lot of money. Usually, several companies pool their money to buy it. The surrounding villages can afford it, but if it is a little farther away, you have to include the transportation fee. The cost is too high, and they can't afford it either.
After all, this is not an era of urbanization, and the people are very scattered.
The government usually turns a blind eye and closes one eye. They are really short of money, and then they go to arrest these people and blackmail them.
But it’s different now, the Public Security Bureau has set up the banner of the rule of law, and you can’t turn a blind eye to this kind of illegal behavior.
The only way is to improve the system in this area, or let the big wine households go to the village to sell wine koji, but if it is too far away, the big wine households will also suffer and are unwilling to do so. Collect taxes inside, because the existence of the tax department can do this.
Zhang Fei nodded and said, "Actually, I think so too."
Yuan Jiang said anxiously again: "But the wine tax is an important source of income for the government, so it should not be taken lightly. If it is released, will the tax department be sure to collect the money?"
Good wine was popular in the Northern Song Dynasty, and there are also credits from the government. The more people drink, the higher the financial revenue. This wine tax is the key revenue of the financial system. It can even be said that it is no less than the agricultural tax. Although the agricultural tax is large, the payment The cost is also high.
In fact, it is not impossible to let go, but are you sure you will collect all the money?
No matter how you change it, at least ensure that the income in this area cannot be reduced.
Zhang Fei nodded and said: "I think it is possible. The reason is just like what Bachelor Yuan said, the liquor tax is very important, and there are still huge profits underneath. The tax department will definitely keep an eye on it all the time."
Yuan Jiang nodded, and asked again: "Then what do you think about this, and how should you change it?"
Zhang Fei said: "I think it still needs to be reformed according to Wang Xueshi's new policy."
"How do you say that?" Yuan Jiang asked hurriedly.
He hadn't thought of this, because Wang Anshi's reform has not involved this aspect for the time being.
Zhang Fei said: "Using the promotion of Changping Division, I will go directly to the wine business."
Yuan Jiang said: "Now the imperial court is also doing wine business."
"No!"
Zhang Fei shook his head and said: "I mean, based on the situation of complete liberalization, the imperial court will end up doing this wine business."
Yuan Jiang frowned and said, "I don't quite understand this."
Zhang Fei said: "The imperial court can choose to cooperate with the best distiller's brewers in the market, and buy shares in their wineries through Jiekupu in Hezhong Prefecture. Then, completely release the brewing of distiller's koji, brewing wine, and the sale of wine in the area, so that merchants can They rely on strength to make money.
However, in order to ensure the control of the government, the government can set up a wine-making and sales qualification certificate. If you want to sell wine outside, you must have this certificate.If there is such a certificate, the government will guarantee it, so the evaluation conditions are very simple. First, determine how many stoves, if there is only one stove, it belongs to personal wine making, not commercial behavior, and then determine how many stoves The above belongs to commercial winemaking, and at the same time, the quality of the wine and the stability of the taste are used to control the wine market.
This also provides a legal basis for rural households to make wine. Whether it is selling bootleg wine can be evaluated by the stove. If he only has one stove, even if he sells wine, it is not considered bootleg wine. influential. "
Yuan Jiang said: "In this way, are you sure that the imperial court will earn more?"
"determine."
Zhang Fei nodded and said: "First of all, if you do this, everyone will rely on their strength to compete for the market, then the few wineries that cooperate with the imperial court will definitely be able to eat most of the wine market, and the imperial court will have to make a fortune here.
At the same time, they have to pay taxes. Of course, the government also has to pay taxes, and here is another profit. Now, due to the division of regions by the imperial court to avoid competition, the wine market is relatively sluggish. Instead, bootleg alcohol is more active. Once it is released, it will definitely be exciting. The wine market, according to the new tax law, will only generate more tax revenue. "
Yuan Jiang nodded slightly, "But can the tax department check it out?"
Zhang Fei said with a smile: "As long as there is a reward incentive, the evidence will definitely be found, and it will be easier to search."
Yuan Jiang said, "How do you say that?"
Zhang Fei said: "The most powerful wineries cooperate with the government, so every account has to be recorded, and the tax department will naturally have a way to get the accounts.
At the same time, if other distilleries want to compete with these companies, they must also cooperate with others. Currently, there is a law of contract, which makes them also have to standardize their accounts. Otherwise, if there is a dispute, the possibility of damage Just myself.
This also provides sufficient evidence for the tax department.As for those small drinkers, the tax department will also conduct spot checks on them. As long as a few are caught, they will not dare to evade taxes easily. "
Yuan Jiang nodded slightly.
Zhang Fei added: "However, I suggest that the government only buy shares and supervise the accounts without interfering with operations."
Yuan Jiang asked, "Why?"
Zhang Fei said: "Because according to the new policy, it is to do business to make money, but if it is controlled by the government, interests may conflict, because there are national interests and officials' personal interests, and corruption often arises from this.
Businessmen are different. Businessmen just want to make money. The more businessmen earn, the government will naturally earn more, but the government only needs to monitor the accounts, which can also prevent corruption.So I suggest that the government only needs to control [-]% or [-]% of the members, and the government should not obtain the right to operate anyway. "
Yuan Jiang said, "What about the coal mine?"
Zhang Fei said: "Similarly, it is also a cooperation with businessmen. The imperial court can take out [-]% of the share to buy, which can not only guarantee the government's direct income, but also guarantee tax revenue, and those big businessmen can also get a piece of the pie. If the government takes all If they have their own, they will definitely not be reconciled, and if they destroy it, they will return to the original state over time.
In fact, no matter whether it is wine or coal, if the government does it by itself, corruption will definitely breed in it. At the same time, it will be difficult for the tax department to do anything, because the government does not have to pay taxes if it does business by itself, but it cooperates with businessmen in this way. You have to pay taxes. "
"The old man knows what to do."
Yuan Jiang nodded thoughtfully, but said in her heart, it's so simple, why didn't the old man think of it, could it be... yes, everything he said was based on the public prosecutor's law.
If there is no public security law and no contract principle, even if the government accounts for [-]%, it can still dominate, and businessmen may not be willing to cooperate with the government. It is precisely because of the existence of the public security law that businessmen do not need to fear the government. If something goes wrong, just sue the government directly to the imperial court. Has it been less in the past two years?
Yuan Jiang suddenly thought of something, "That's right! I heard that the tax department will take [-]% of the fine from the tax department?"
Zhang Fei said with a smile: "Scholar Yuan, don't be jealous of these things. You can only be a brave man under this heavy reward. The tax department can find so many evidences, but they just use money to find them. There are not many tricks."
Old Yuan Jiang blushed, "I know this too, but judging from the current situation, it seems that there are quite a few of them!"
I did some calculations yesterday, and the tax department may get more fines than taxes. Why is this a bit exaggerated!
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "But they deserve it."
Yuan Jiang nodded.
He was just asking, he had no right to move the money, because the tax department was the emperor.
It's not that Yuan Jiang is jealous, almost everyone is jealous.
Now the tax department is making money every day, even more than that. In the past few days, I have seen groups of bodyguards with knives rushing to the tax department with boxes of copper coins.
Because their masters were all detained in the tax department, it was impossible for people to release the money if it was not in place.
This is really to the point of day and night.
With the paid help of the imperial court, the procuratorate, the police station, and various major bookstores, the taxation department arranged [-] collection points in the city, and each point has three batches of accounting offices, which are checked in shifts. Fifteen tax collection points are still brightly lit.
It's time for the second watch.
But I saw a group of housewives standing in front of the imperial court, looking forward to it.
After a while, there was a creaking sound, and the door slowly opened.
I saw those rich and arrogant people who were usually arrogant and domineering, but at this moment, their heads were lowered, their backs were hunched, they supported each other, and they walked out from the inside with staggering steps.
Those waiting outside stepped forward immediately.
"master!"
"Daddy!"
"grandfather!"
"Grandson, I... am I still alive?"
"Grandpa, are you okay?"
"Grandpa was scared to death, grandpa was scared to death. Woohoo!"
Seeing their relatives, these people couldn't hold back any longer, and burst into tears immediately.
As far as their strength and their background are concerned, it is true that nothing will happen, or the whole family may die if something happens, so they are really scared inside all day long!
After all the 130 and two rich men were released, the next wave of surrenders came again.
For this wave, the tax department is looking at the amount of tax evasion, and the fine is usually one to three times, because the really super rich are placed in the first batch, and these big fish cannot be missed.
This phenomenon lasted for a month and a half before it finally came to an end.
The main thing is to count the money. They have to pay too much tax and it is too difficult to count. The salt money basically fills this hole, most of which are copper coins.
Really trembling hands counting money.
royal court.
All the officials of the Hezhong Mansion came together, and they looked at Chen Ming with envy and resentment at the same time!
Chen Ming said bluntly: "As of now, our tax department has detected about 53 guan of tax evasion, and received a total fine of 120 million guan."
Everyone present gasped.
Fines are more than taxes.
Nima!
This is really more ruthless than their extortionate miscellaneous taxes!
The essential!
This is all our money!
Wei Yingfang suppressed his anger: "I don't know how the tax department plans to deal with these fines?"
Chen Mingdao: "We will pay [-]% of it with the tax according to the rules, and the rest will go to our tax department."
"It means that your tax department wants to take away 80 guan?"
"Yes."
Chen Ming said.
"How can this work."
Wei Yingfang refused to accept it.
Chen Ming looked at him, "Whether it's okay or not, can Wei Tong judge it?"
"you?"
Wei Yingfang glared at him, then looked at Cai Yanqing and Yuan Jiang.
Cai Yanqing also felt that it was too much, and coughed lightly: "Is this a little too much?"
Su Zhe also nodded slightly.
A government office took 80 pennies away, which is simply...!
It's outrageous!
At least this has never happened in Song Dynasty.
Chen Ming took it for granted, "Not much at all, because if the tax department's finances are reduced, the tax revenue may also be reduced accordingly."
Cai Yanqing smiled awkwardly.
Wei Yingfang refused to accept it and said, "Don't think that you are the only ones in the world who can collect taxes."
Chen Mingdao: "I also want to know why the Hezhong Mansion only collected so little tax before."
".!"
Direct crit!
This time, none of the rich and powerful people in Hezhong Mansion ran away. They control nearly two-thirds of the wealth in Hezhong Mansion. Of course, this tax will be very scary.
The officials of the Hezhong Mansion stopped talking, and couldn't help but murmur in their hearts, what will the officials think when the tax returns are filed, will they think we are too incompetent?
After Zhang Fei saw it, he opened his mouth and said, "Okay, since they have surrendered themselves and paid back the tax money, the imperial court will withdraw their lawsuits."
Su Zhe said: "Our procuratorate will still reserve the prosecution against them until the government improves the relevant system."
Yuan Jiang nodded and said, "We will get out of the adjustment as soon as possible."
After all, he glared at Wei Yingfang and the others again, it's all for you!
Wei Yingfang and the others really lost their wives, and lost their soldiers again!
After the accounts were clarified, Yuan Jiang and the others left. In fact, they were also happy, and they could get 100 million more tax revenue while lying down. With this political achievement, who else is there.
Chen Ming was not in a hurry to leave, he still had to stay and talk to the imperial court about withdrawing the lawsuit. In fact, Qiu Zhengwen and Cai Jing did these things, while he talked with Zhang Fei about how to divide the spoils.
Regarding this matter, Zhang Fei had already made arrangements.
"At that time, you can deposit all the finances of the tax department in Ma's Jieku shop. I have already helped you set up a group of secret depositors there. At that time, you can just give them the savings book directly, and they can go to Ma's house by themselves. Pick it up at the Jieku shop, including those tax policemen.”
"Will this expose our people?"
"Will not."
Zhang Fei said: "Those depositors are all specially arranged by me, and they are all counted as flying money accounts from Bianzhou."
"I see."
