Chapter 215 Big Leek
"So much has dropped?" Wen Yanbo was also shocked.
Huh?
Chen Zhizhong was stunned when he looked down, so he continued to recite: "But at the same time, the revenue of commercial tax in Kaifeng Prefecture has increased significantly by as much as 30%... Your Majesty's Holy Wisdom!"
At this point, Old Chen started to "edit" the newspaper again and shouted flattery.
What!
It's impossible!
With all kinds of thoughts, the whole court was really in full swing.
This data is quite strange. What's going on with such a big ups and downs? The carbon tax dropped by 30%, while the commercial tax also increased by 30% in a crazy way?
What is obvious and clear is that the commercial tax in the Song Dynasty was slightly more than all other tax types combined, and it was so awesome. The sharp drop of coal tax by 30% seems scary, but the commercial tax also rose by 30%. So if you don’t need to pass the math, you will know that Kaifeng Prefecture’s overall finance this time is very prosperous.
At this point, Ouyang Xiu could no longer resist this "exaggeration" and questioned: "This is impossible to understand at all. It's not... the statistics were wrong or intentionally concealed, right?"
Chen Zhizhong himself felt that he could not understand it, so he carefully read the newspaper and said that it was true. This is how the newspaper was written.
Zhao Zhen had a very happy expression, but he had read Wenbao for a long time, and his slightly suspicious personality was a little unresolved. So he didn't stop Ouyang Xiu's doubts and waited for them to tell him.
Now, everyone looked at Zhang Fangping.
Zhang Fangping spread his hands and said, "Why are you looking at me? The carbon tax is directly under the jurisdiction of the court, and I personally monitor it. So the carbon tax data is correct, it has indeed dropped, and the range has also made me frightened. After repeatedly reviewing this data, I have no choice. This is the price paid to protect people's livelihood."
He paused and said, "But the local government is in charge of the business tax. Bao Zheng is in charge of Kaifeng Prefecture. This is how he reported it to me. Our company also finds it strange, so if you want to question it, please look for Bao Zheng."
In theory, something must have happened, because it is not a hawker buying vegetables. At the national level, the biggest tax source of Kaifeng Prefecture, a major city that accounts for nearly half of the financial and taxation of the Song Dynasty, how can such a large fluctuation occur in a short period of time?
So Ouyang Xiu just couldn't figure it out and always thought it was an exaggeration of collusion between the top and the bottom.
According to the rules of the Song Dynasty, this is indeed a political achievement. Many local officials like to be fat and do conceal the exaggerated political achievement. However, if local governments dare to report data, they must submit the corresponding amount to the treasury of the three departments, so the money can be received.
But after this happens, of course, the local people suffer, because the consul will not pay for the taxes out of their own pockets, and will only increase the burden on the people to embellish them.
There are indeed quite a lot of such things, but the strange thing is that others will do this. Lao Bao will not do this, right? And there are almost no such things in the capital, so it is too easy to find and be exposed.
Thinking of this, Ouyang Xiu glanced at Bao Zheng and stopped talking for the time being.
This is where Lao Bao’s reputation lies. No one likes him, but overall everyone trusts him very much.
Zhao Zhen looked around and saw Bao Zheng standing heartlessly and was too lazy to even speak. So Zhao Zhen became more confident and knew that this time the finances were starting well, and there were no false alarms or data errors.
So Zhao Zhen deliberately said: "Bao Zheng, is there any false alarms in your Kaifeng Mansion data?"
Bao Zheng shook his head dry and said, "There is no false alarm."
Zhao Zhen said again: "There is a reason for this abnormal significant increase. Have you found the source?"
Bao Zheng thought about it and said, "There are too many people involved and the factors are complicated, so it is a bit vague. But there are traces to follow, that is, the honeycomb coal yard plays a significant role in the increase in commercial taxes in this period. Although the coal yard itself does not pay carbon tax, it also pays a considerable amount of tax resident tax. In addition, the number of workers in the coal yard is now large, and the wages are paid more. The old minister personally visited the coal yard many times and found that unlike other places, the situation is that most people in the coal yard are very confident in the future, the wages are stable and the benefits are good, so they dare to spend money compared to ordinary people. Many people like to go to the city and buy whatever they see. This stimulated a considerable number of Bianjing workshops to hire people and increase production."
"As the price of carbon falls, the production costs of many related workshops are also falling, and their profits have increased, so there are obviously more people joining production and manufacturing. In addition, since the old minister took office in Kaifeng Prefecture, he has made great efforts to strictly control the order of the street market. Now everything is developing in a positive direction."
Hearing this, Zhao Zhen laughed and said, "Are you not stingy when you praise yourself?"
Bao Zheng said: "That's what the old minister thinks, so he said that."
This fact is too mysterious, but since Bao Zheng said so, many people who specifically wanted to speak on this did not speak out, lowered their heads and pretended not to hear any good news.
Chen Zhizhong said again: "Don't stop everyone, there is still content under the newspaper."
What else?
Is it over or not?
Chen Zhizhong continued: "I finished talking about the short-term carbon tax and commercial tax in Kaifeng Prefecture. It is worth noting that the total mining volume of the coal industry near Jingji has not decreased, it is still growing, and the number of workers working has increased significantly. Nearly 10,000 originally unemployed vagrants have joined the industry's labor production. In this regard, although it is not sure that this is directly related to the increase in commercial tax in Kaifeng Prefecture, I think that the statement that the 'honeycomb coal yard' in Kaifeng Prefecture' is important in economic and fiscal tax is objective and can be supported."
Zhao Zhen twisted his beard and nodded frequently in a very good mood. Even though he had read these news in advance, he just wanted to hear the prime minister read it again during the dynasty and confirm it.
It feels so good to hear. As a news control Zhao Zhen, he used to be quite sad, and he could hear very few good news, and most of them were troubles from all over the country.
The following Wang Yun, who was waiting in the hall, smiled at this. From a psychology perspective, the more problems the Song Dynasty, the more the emperor would like to listen to good news, and he would pay special attention to the people who created good news. This is why Wang Anshi could be the prime minister in the future and could exhort the emperor to reform.
To be fair, Wang Anshi has many problems. He did not like to advise the emperor in a way that was unpleasant and unpleasant way, but instead used the argument that "describes the many benefits that reforms can bring to the country" and brought the emperor together. Then the more dangerous the situation in the Song Dynasty at that time, the higher the degree of Wang Anshi's rise.
Sometimes things in the world are just like this virtue, just like the more gamblers in later generations lose, the more they want to win, and the more they feel that they will win in the next round.
Those leeks trapped in stock market crashes know that the trend has become bloody, but they absolutely do not like to listen to pills such as "cutting the stock and leaving some money for the New Year". They will only selectively watch the remarks of "anticipated rebound" on the Internet media, but they will not watch any of them who say they will fall again.
Human nature is just this kind of virtue. Those who always win big money on the mahjong table like to make excuses to slip away. These people are technical gamblers. They know that Feng Shui and luck will not be good forever, and they should leave after winning expectations.
In fact, this type of mahjong master is the same as a stock expert. He uses quantitative means to set up reasonable "stop losses", and then continues to try and make mistakes, while controlling losses.
Their winning rate may not be very high, but they keep trial and error with reasonable frequency and follow the trend. Once they catch the "luck wheel", they will make profits run and turn into big meat.
Just as Buffett sold PetroChina at 40 to the old lady stock god, those who win big money on the mahjong table will definitely leave. If they don’t leave, there will be something wrong. Then this type of person is either “big leeks or big frauds.”
If you are very familiar with each other and often play cards together, you will find that someone often wins and wins a lot. Nine and a half of these people are cheating.
If you find that someone often loses small but stands on the spot as soon as they lose and occasionally wins big, this is not a fraud, but a real technical professional expert, Buffett is talking about them in the card market.
If you find someone who loves you very much, often loses and wins, and fights for 16 rounds, this kind of leek is a stupid person who has a lot of money, also known as a big addiction and poor technology. You can adjust your mindset to learn technology and specifically win the money of this type of leek, because the goal of a wolf must be a sheep, not a tiger.
This is the current situation of casinos, or human nature, which will never change in ancient and modern times. History is not gentle and always has amazing similarity.
The above is Dalian’s experience and the psychological yy that appears based on Zhao Zhen’s performance.
Zhao Zhen is a kind man, not a scam, he is a benevolent man, not a famous man, but a "big leek". There are too many benefits he has been harvested by the barbarians and the old masters.
So at the scene, I watched this uncle who couldn't live for too long but had a kind face facing a group of cunning old men. For some reason, Dalian actually felt a little sympathetic to him?
