I don't want to do it, but he has a health bar

Chapter 223 Wonderful! Wonderful! (Subscribe)

After Zhang Taiyue stayed in the mansion for a few days, Lu Jing finally came.

Zhang Taiyue was already getting impatient: "Why did you come just now? I thought you had forgotten about my errand."

Although he used to be the prime minister of Dayu and had outstanding abilities.

But the city of Okho was completely different from the provincial capital he had known before.

Even though Zhang Taiyue had once been the prime minister of Dayu, he couldn't help feeling uneasy at this moment.

He was afraid that his skills were outdated and he could not keep up with the new era created by Lu Jing.

Lu Jing laughed and said, "What are you thinking about? In this era, there are no more than five people who can surpass you in political talent. Even if you don't know anything, even if you are specialized in coordinating with Dayu's affairs, you still have a lot to show."

"Hahahaha, that's good! That's good!"

For an extraordinary person like Zhang Taiyue, he is not afraid of doing everything, but is afraid of doing nothing.

So Zhang Taiyue stood up quickly: "Let's go! See the errands assigned to me."

Lu Jing waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, you need to disguise your identity."

As he spoke, Lu Jing took out a leather mask that was as thin as a cicada's wing and soft in texture and gave it to Zhang Taiyue: "Here, put it on."

Zhang Taiyue had no doubts and took him with him.

He just felt a cool sensation on his face, and then the leather mask dissolved into his skin like water. Then he felt his skin itchy.

Zhang Taiyue came to the glass of the door and window, and then he saw the skin on his face and the flesh underneath it rising and falling as if there were bugs crawling, which was very disgusting.

But this situation only lasted for a short while.

When his skin became regular again, Zhang Taiyue was shocked to find that he had changed his appearance.

Zhang Taiyue didn't recognize himself at all because of his appearance.

Zhang Taiyue touched his face and said, "This is something new."

But these are just minor tricks and not worth studying in depth.

Zhang Taiyue turned around immediately and said, "Let's go!"

Lu Jing also handed a package of documents to Zhang Taiyue: "Here are your family's household registration certificates. Don't lose them. If you lose them, you must apply for a replacement in time."

After Zhang Taiyue distributed the things, Lu Jingcai also turned around and transformed himself into a young man with a mediocre face and temperament, even looking dull and lifeless.

Zhang Taiyue was stunned: "What are you doing?"

Lu Jing smiled and said, "If I take you to the place where you are doing your work, they will probably lift you up to the sky. So I will change my identity and take you there. This will also facilitate the most direct observation."

Zhang Taiyue also laughed: "Hahaha, you are thoughtful."

Soon, two unfamiliar faces appeared on the streets of Okhotsk.

Walking down the street, Lu Jing explained to Zhang Taiyue, "I look like a secretary in the Political Affairs Office. The place I'm going to take you to is called the Economic Supervision Office."

Zhang Taiyue humbly asked, "What does this mean?"

Lu Jing smiled and said, "As for economy, it is about managing the world and benefiting the people. It mainly manages the people's livelihood, money, business, and the sale of goods in the areas under the jurisdiction of Ehuo."

Zhang Taiyue understood: "I see, it's the Ministry of Revenue."

Lu Jing shook his head and said, "Similar, but not really. Dayu's Ministry of Revenue is responsible for territory, land, household registration, taxes, salaries and all financial matters. But the Economic Supervision Office is mainly responsible for verifying the total value of local fiscal output each year."

"It's not just about collecting taxes and liquidating property."

Zhang Taiyue frowned.

He has extremely high understanding and wisdom.

Just by listening to what Lu Jing said, I roughly understood why Lu Jing did this.

After he and Lu Jing understood what the total value of financial assets was, Zhang Taiyue couldn't help but gasp!
The so-called "total value of financial output" is the final result of the production activities of all government agencies within a certain period of time. It is a core indicator for calculating the development status of a region and an important indicator for measuring the economic status and development level of a place.

Once this is mastered, everything about a place will be clear at a glance. By calculating the total value of financial output, it is also possible to determine how much tax the place should pay, whether there is corruption, fraud, and the living conditions of the people.

With these things in hand, it can greatly curb the thoughts of those below to commit fraud.

Even if a local official wants to commit fraud and seek credit by creating false prosperity, the funds that should be turned over according to the total value of financial assets cannot be falsified.

If a local official wants to lower the total value in order to embezzle money, then the higher-ups will have reason to come down and calculate and monitor.

Of course, if one wants to commit corruption and abuse the power, there is always a way to do it.

Zhang Taiyue thought of it in a flash. For example, the local chief official made the financial report look good, but secretly extorted money from the people or accepted bribes...

Lu Jing didn't mind it: "Corruption is inevitable. But as long as the economy of a place is developing rapidly and the industry is developing steadily, it's harmless to take some money. To put it bluntly, it's just the money deposited with them."

Zhang Taiyue nodded.

Kill the greedy and take money.

He was too familiar with this routine.

Lu Jing continued: "The most important thing is that the local people's livelihood and economy should be good."

"As for plundering the people's blood and sweat..." Lu Jing said with a smile, "Farmers under the jurisdiction of the Tiandi Yijia Daai League and those with low incomes do not have to pay taxes."

Zhang Taiyue was immediately shocked: "What?!"

If the people don’t pay taxes, where will the treasury get the money?

Lu Jing continued with a smile, "Not only do they not have to pay taxes, but farmers also receive subsidies every year to buy seeds and fertilizers."

Zhang Taiyue's heart was shocked again: "Ah?"

He took a deep breath and scratched his head: "No, your Tiandi Yijia Daai League is so rich?"

Lu Jing shook his head and smiled, "Food is an important daily necessity, so its price cannot be too high. Farming doesn't make much money, and you still expect the people to pay taxes. Isn't that degrading?"

Zhang Taiyue's face suddenly turned a little dark.

Good job, Lu Jing!
Nowadays, the way of swearing is becoming more and more advanced!

The "One Whip Law" he implemented in Dayu was to convert various taxes into silver and pay it to the people, thereby reducing their burden.

Originally he thought he was doing pretty well, but compared to Lu Jing...

Depend on!
How the hell do you compare?
So it’s still the same question!
Zhang Taiyue asked, "Where did you get so much money in the alliance?"

Lu Jing smiled: "You Dayu..."

Zhang Taiyue's face darkened: "It's them, Dayu!"

Lu Jing laughed and said, "Good, good, good, they, the Dayu and the Yaoman tribes are all sending money to our alliance. Our new firearms, beast tamers, food, sugar, aquatic products and other supplies are rare outside the alliance."

"The Yaoman side is very strict and prohibits trade with the alliance, but there are still many smugglers who take risks, and we have also made a lot of money."

"The money earned was either invested in the next round of production or used to subsidize the people. Of course, it also enriched some corrupt officials."

Zhang Taiyue suddenly realized!
That's it!

It seems that the truly valuable things are those that were once regarded as "strange and tricky things" by the gentry and officials!
After the Tiandi Yijia Daai League distributes the money to the people in the league, these people who have made money and become wealthy will naturally want to enjoy life. After all, people's pursuit of a better life is their most simple and basic need.

Better shelter, better food, better supplies, better enjoyment...

As long as Lu Jing can grasp these, the money can flow back into the treasury again!

Then the money in the treasury can be allocated to the industries in need.

This will form a virtuous circle!
Under such laws!

How can the Great Love Alliance of Heaven and Earth not grow stronger?

Wonderful!
