In various churches in Beijing, it is full of worshipers everywhere. Today is Sunday after all, and at this time those who believe in Western religions also come to have a week. However, at this time, the minds of these religious people are also very complicated, because they feel that their lives are not going well. As early as a few months ago, they were five and six, and they were still proud of being a church member. Tan thinks that he is a Christian and can be sheltered by Westerners.

They join this Western religion not because they like any Western religion, nor do they really approve of the Western religion, but because they think that joining a Western religion can gain the protection of foreigners. Because foreign missionaries have a high status in China and even have many privileges. And once these believers enter a foreign religion, they can also obtain certain privileges. For example, when they pay taxes, they will no longer pay taxes to the government, but pay taxes to these foreigners. These Western religions are also euphemistically called worship, and they will no longer pay taxes for the government from then on.

Even when they break the law, they are handed over to the priests of the church to deal with it, and they will not be dealt with by the Chinese judicial department. This is one of their privileges. Therefore, many wealthy people also hope to join Western religions and obtain the privilege of lowering taxes. Because China's taxes are too harsh, there are many exorbitant taxes, and naturally there are many unreasonable expenditures. And joined the base. After Christianity, they can also get great benefits, at least those officials dare not exploit too much.

Now, though, their days are coming to an end.

"Your Majesty Wang has ordered that all tax evaders who evaded taxes under the rule of the Manchu Qing court in the past must pay additional taxes. Otherwise, they will be punished as tax evasion and tax evasion. However, in view of the fact that Manchu Qing had many extra Assessed, you only need to pay the regular tax burden of 30 and 30 taxes. You don’t need to pay the likin apportioned. If you take the initiative to pay taxes, you can still be a legal citizen who pays taxes according to the regulations. If you are not willing to pay additional tax, then don’t blame us for sending you to the trial seat!”

When the order of the taxman came. The pot exploded in here. Because they originally joined foreign religions, that is to say, they hoped to obtain a reduced tax standard. According to the tax standard of foreigners, it is the so-called one-tenth. Of course, this is actually much higher than one-thirtieth of the Manchu Qing. However, there were still a lot of miscellaneous apportionments in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, so the addition was still very heavy. They think that after joining a foreign religion, they can get a lower tax burden, but now they actually have to pay taxes, and they have to make up for those tax burdens in the past, which makes them very angry.

"Let us make up for the tax burden of several years or even ten years at once, why don't you grab it?" A businessman immediately scolded.

"That's right! This is a tax burden that lasts for several decades. If we replenish it at once, our capital chain will be broken." "Why do we have to pay taxes? We haven't paid taxes in the past." , we've all turned the tax burden over to the church."

"I'm sorry, the church is not the government office of our court. They have no right to collect taxes. And if you are willing to donate to the church, that is your business. However, we should pay taxes to our court. That's still a lot. Thirty percent One, the tax is already very low. We also act according to the charter. Therefore, what you pay to the church is not tax, but offerings. Foreign churches have no right to collect taxes, so some of you have already evaded taxes. It has been more than ten years. And we only pay taxes this time to collect all the taxes that you missed in the past. We only collect one-thirtieth of the regular tax, and we don’t collect extra likin apportionments and so on. So are you not satisfied?" asked the tax man.

"However. If we pay taxes for more than ten years at one time, our capital chain will be broken, and we will all be in bad luck at that time. Should we sell our property and pay taxes at the expense of meat?" asked the priest.

"That's your business. You didn't pay taxes in the past, so you accumulated it over and over again. Don't blame others if you die yourself! Our Lord Wang has a saying, that is, don't look at this year's fun, just I’m afraid of making a list in the coming year. Calculate it yourself, how much tax evasion you have evaded, don’t let us figure it out, once we find it out, it will not end well.” The tax official said.

After the tax officer finished speaking, he left immediately. In the headquarters of Prince Qing's Mansion, Li Zhanfeng took the initiative to ask Wang Guorui: "My lord, is this a violation of the practice of religious freedom if we are so aggressive against the religious people this time?" ?”

"Hmph, freedom of religion? On our land in China, most moderate and non-violent religions are welcome, but we absolutely do not welcome those who break the law and discipline. In our China, the biggest thing can only be the law, religion Nor can they go beyond the law. Any illegal provision, once it conflicts with the law, it must be dealt with according to the law." Wang Guorui said.

But Li Zhanfeng said: "If we do this, will the rabbit die and the fox will be sad? We must know that those monks and Taoists are very powerful in our place. Even, if we follow this theoretical logic, wouldn't all those monks be able to get married?"

"Yes, love between men and women is a basic right that every citizen should have. Marriage is also one of the natural rights of the law, and no one can deprive it of it. If citizens are unwilling to exercise this natural right, it is also a His business. But if monks want to get married, although they violate the religious rules, they do not violate the law. Therefore, we should also register their marriages. Any religious rules cannot exceed the law. If religious provisions violate If the law is written, it is invalid. Of course, our government cannot replace the people to exercise some powers. However, we must also protect the people's qualifications to exercise power."

"As for these foreign religions, they all rely on the power of the country and the so-called privileges, and then further extend the privileges to the believers. And those domestic religious headquarters are also willing to facilitate the preaching, and chose to allow them to do this. It’s a matter of playing around the edges. However, paying taxes according to the law is the obligation of every citizen, no matter in the Manchu era or in the era of our rule in the future, we must pay taxes according to the law. Paying taxes is the obligation of every citizen.”

However, Kang Tongwei asked: "Husband, these religious people are also like this because the imperial court's taxes are too heavy!"

"Tong Wei, you don't need to help them excuse. These believers seem to join foreign religions to avoid high taxes, but in fact you saw them, they don't even pay one-thirtieth of the most basic tax They are also unwilling to pay. If they join Western religions in order to avoid those exorbitant taxes, then I can forgive them. But once they join Western religions, they are not even willing to pay one-thirtieth of the taxes they should pay. If you hand it over, it won't be justified!" Wang Guorui said.

In fact, Wang Guorui would definitely not object to the fact that the Manchu Qing levied a lot of miscellaneous taxes. However, this exorbitant miscellaneous tax is based on the situation of "miscellaneous taxes", and the official tax revenue of the country is only one-thirtieth. One-thirtieth, less than 3.3%, such a low tax is simply unthinkable in later generations. You must know that the various value-added taxes, corporate income taxes, and other taxes on business from the governments of later generations are very large, let alone one-thirtieth, and some industries may have one-third. If it is to avoid exorbitant taxes, it is understandable to join a foreign religion. But if you join a foreign religion and don't even pay such a low statutory tax, that's your business.

Paying taxes is the obligation of every citizen, and avoiding paying more unreasonable taxes is also the right of every citizen. However, they only enjoy the right not to pay taxes, but they are not able to actively pay taxes, and even evade taxes. This is not something Wang Guorui can tolerate.

"Husband~lightnovelpub.net~ Will these religious people take the opportunity to make trouble? You must know that these religious people are quite capable, and they also have a lot of people with money in their hands!" Zheng Hong said.

"Don't be afraid, I just want them to come out to make trouble. If they don't make trouble, then I can't hold them accountable. But since they dare to make trouble, then don't blame us for being rude. The Christians, they are not real Sincerely believe in religion, but only believe in religion for the sake of gaining benefits. Even, many of these religious people have become traitors, and many of them will secretly help foreigners to spy on our power. These Western religions are extended by foreigners. A tentacle that entered us. So we have to cut off their tentacles, otherwise the battle ahead of us will definitely be very unstable. Keeping one of these believers here is like keeping a time bomb ! Therefore, they must be resolved." Wang Guorui said.

"Okay, let's prepare right away, and then take care of these religious people! These religious people, who believe in foreign religions, have forgotten their own motherland and helped foreigners invade the motherland. Of course, we cannot tolerate these traitors." Zheng Hong replied.

"Hey, how many religions in this world really uphold the righteousness of the nation? Even Confucianism was changed to cater to the Manchu Qing Dynasty? Few of these religions are really reliable." Wang Guorui sighed Said in a sigh of relief. (to be continued...)
