In short, in Liu Zongyuan's eyes, this Duke of Wei decided not to reduce taxes from Caizhou and Guangzhou.

When he was in court, the Duke of Wei asked him: Everyone said that my methods in Caizhou are too cool, what do you think, Zihou?

As a result, I don’t use Xiaoren to harm the righteousness. Now I feel extremely ashamed when I think about it.

At this time, Gao Yue continued to talk in the hall:

The governors of Huainan prefectures and counties and magistrates of each county have only one job from now on, that is, to establish a deadline, collect taxes, and collect all the taxes for summer and autumn this year as soon as possible! In addition, in the summer and autumn seasons, people are prohibited from quarrels, and they are working hard to harvest and transfer taxes. If someone goes to the government office to argue, they will be punished by sticks and fined money and grain!

Hearing this, Liu Zongyuan only saw that Han Yu, the county magistrate of Jiangdu County, was extremely solemn on the seat. When he heard about tax collection, Han Tuizhi, who had practical experience, understood that Duke Wei’s words were by no means a joke - the governor and the county magistrate, his job was to collect taxes, and the rest were all false.

Alas, Han Chuzhi was passionate at Dongwei Bridge that day. He wrote "The Fu of Two Birds" and angrily criticized the government. But when he was in trouble, he would definitely use all kinds of means to order the people to pay taxes. He really said one thing and did another.

When Liu Zongyuan complained secretly, Gao Yue's plan did not stop like a cannon. He said to Wang Haichao, the queen of Yangzi, "Please promote salt induced throughout Huainan."

Wang Hai was obviously tugging at the muscles at the corner of his mouth, and then he could only bow his hands to listen.

Gao Yue means: "In terms of salt profit, we are bounded by Huainan, Xuanrun and Sanchuan, Hedong. Sichuan salt, Xia salt (salt in Kuifu) are sold to Jingxiang, and Jie salt (salt produced in Hedong) are sold to Jingjin, Dujin, Shuofang salt and Qishan salt are sold to Helong. For our Jianghuai, Xuanrun Suzhou salt is sold domestically in Xuanshe, eastern Zhejiang, western Zhejiang, and exported to Jiangnan West Road and Fujian; Huainan salt is sold domestically in Yang, Chu, He, Shou, Lu, Chu, Shu, Cai, Ying, Guangjiuzhou, and exported to Eyue and Hunan. The boundaries of each security are based on the salt citations published by the military government. The salt without salt is regarded as private salt. The salt is divided into ten, twenty, fifty, and one hundred citations are different in size. Yangzhou salt merchants must exchange cash for salt citations, and abolish the false estimation method and prohibit the use of cloth for salt citations."

All the inspectors present were shocked.

This means that the high profits of the entire Huainan salt merchant were immediately cut off by Gao Yue.

Originally, the huge profits of salt merchants were derived from the false estimation method, using so-called "four silos of money per piece" of cloth to deal with equivalent salt, and then selling them to the people at a higher price, taking advantage of both transactions and making profits at both ends.

Now it doesn't exist. The salt farms, that is, production bases in Yangzhou, are still controlled by the government. Therefore, Gao Yue is very confident. Don't use cloth to deal with salt in the future. We only collect cash.

"Duke Wei, what if the salt merchants don't come to question salt?" Wang Haichao didn't give up and asked this question.

Yes, the reason why salt merchants were domineering in the past was that the Tang court had set a quota of 6 million guan per year for Southeast salt profit since the time of Liu Yan. Therefore, in order to complete this quota, officials had to flatter and condone salt merchants, and then exchanged the quota for salt profits into a mess of "light goods", and then priced the light goods at a high price, and collected enough 6 million guan per book to vacate the court.

In short, the market dominance was in the hands of salt merchants in the past.

Gao Yue sneered at this.

Meng Zhongyang from Shoulu Inspection Institute over there understood it and immediately left the list, "Then my Salt and Iron Department is willing to take over the Yangzi Salt and Iron Academy and attract merchants from other states to sell Huaiyan."

Wang Haichao was embarrassed.

If he didn't do it, Meng Zhongyang from the Salt and Iron Department would do it.

"Salt is owned by the state, cooked in the sea water, and the salt owners are tired of it. Could it be that the group of salt merchants really think that the dominance is in his hands? They are unwilling to ask for this profit, and there are merchants in the world who replace it." Gao Yue was completely confident about this. Not only that, Gao Yue also made a tough rule:

"From then on, with the salt inlet, the whole Huainan was not allowed to raise the price at will. In order to satisfy the hard work of the salt household, the salt cost per bucket increased to twenty-five cents; the merchants deducted salt, and each bucket of 125 cents (excluding the salt copy, 100 cents belong to the government), and after the money was paid, the price was sold at a minimum of 200 cents, and then every 500 miles, the price was raised for 15 cents, and the price was not allowed to increase the price at will. Violators would be severely punished."

In other words, the market price of salt-producing Chu, Yang and salt to the people is one dou and two hundred yuan.

After five hundred miles, when you arrive in Shoulu area, the market price is 215 cents, and the additional fifteen cents are the money for foot strength;

If you sell it thousands of miles away, you can buy it in Guangzhou, or Eyue, and each bucket is only 230 cents.

In addition, every year, the government transports some salt at the base price in the salt farm (the output of sea salt is actually much greater than the sales volume, but because of the government's specialty, the excess will not be put into the market) and store it in salt warehouses in various places. Once the price of salt in Huainan fluctuates due to market reasons, these salts will be used to balance the price.

Hearing Gao Yue's words, Liu Zongyuan felt admiration in his heart again.

In the end, Wang Haichao had a sad face and could only express his obedience to the arrangement.

The task that Gao Yue arranged for Yangzi's backyard was to build up the salt induced system and seize cash from the salt merchants.

Gao Yue's power is much greater than that of the simple Huainan Jiedushi. He also has unquestionable power over the entire Jianghuai Third Division's patrol.

Next is the Shoulu Inspection Institute. Gao Yue gave Meng Zhongyang two tasks. One was to imitate salt induction, and also set up tea induction and wine induction. Gao Yue abolished the Tea Detective Law, but in order to facilitate tax collection, he still ordered all tea and wine to receive introductions at the site before they could be sold in all directions. The second task was to ask the Shoulu Inspection Institute to send additional personnel to survey projects in Jiminggang, to connect water and apply water, and to enter Chaohu.

Meng Zhongyang also received this.

Then Gao Yue stretched out his fingers with scars and announced loudly that the audience was full of "In addition, I want to set up a new military office in Huainan. First, I will be responsible for all key areas, taxation sites and taxation in the market towns, and second, to completely draw the land of Jiuzhou in Huainan. Let's start with the simplest Caizhou and Guangzhou!"

His Jingjie Inspection Court was directly under the Yangzhou Governor's Office and the governor of Huainan. Gao Yue immediately named him, and Sima Gu Xiu of the Governor's Office was appointed as the Chief Inspector. Liu Zongyuan, Ouyang Zhan and Pei Du were also listed on the list of inspectors. This list was read by Gao Yue himself, which shows that he had been planning for a long time.

"What, this means that I have to act directly under the Duke of Wei, and I still need to do things like taxes and painting land..." Liu Zongyuan had a lot of psychological activities.

Gao Yue was definitely decisive. He claimed that the Jingjie Inspection Institute first set up two places, one in Yangzhou, and asked Gu Xiu to coordinate and be responsible for setting up the venues; the other in Runan, Caizhou, "Pei Zhongli Quan learned it! He painted Caizhou's field and promoted Baojia."

As soon as these words came out, the four seats were shocked again.

Pei Du is only at the eighth rank, but now he is promoted to the level of Quanzhi First Academy by Gao Yue. Liu Zongyuan and others still have to do things under him.

Even Han Yu had a jealous expression.
