Qin State, Xianyang.

"Mr. Li Si, if you are elected as the prime minister of the State of Qin, how would you deal with the economic situation faced by the State of Qin? What you need to know is that Prime Minister Shang Wen has achieved an extremely outstanding achievement, which has brought the State of Qin to an unprecedented height. , I don’t know how Mr. Li responds? Do you have the confidence to make Qin Guo a higher level?" a reporter asked. Li Si held a press conference and he announced his participation in the election of Prime Minister Qin in a high-profile manner. Moreover, he made it clear that he would definitely be elected. Having confidence is one thing, but how to get elected is another matter.

"For Qin's economic situation, I think that Qin needs more markets in the future. At present, all countries are actively doing such things, and Qin must do the same. I mean, through the intentional expansion of the government to achieve After completing such a high level of self-demand, our situation will become extremely favorable." Li Si said.

"Does Mr. Li mean to allow Qin to expand? For example, like the Koreans, as far as I know, such expansion will inevitably bring about a lot of investment. Does this mean that Qin may be able to expand substantially in the future? Spending money? We all know that Prime Minister Shang Wen has solved many, many problems. For example, tax reduction and tax exemption policies. Because of such policies, private taxation has a great potential. Does this mean tax increases?" The reporter is not polite Asked. Moreover, a problem is actively guided to a problem that people are very concerned about. Increase taxes. The State of Qin continued to cut taxes during Shangwen's reign. For example, in order to reduce the burden on the people’s living, Shang Wen passed the "Special Tax Case for the People" during his administration. The purpose of the "Tax Case" is very clear to reduce the tax burden on the people. Increasing their spending power mainly focused on their ability to buy some electrical appliances. Large items, such as buying home appliances, or travel tools such as cars. Because of this, it will drive the rapid development of Qin's related industries.

However, this "Tax Case" also brought great troubles to those in power later, because it means that the private fiscal and taxation capacity has improved, but the government's fiscal revenue has not increased. Not only that, but the Shangwen government still owes money. A large amount of debts only need to be concentrated on public facilities, construction of water conservancy projects, highways, highways, and naval infrastructure construction, as well as naval bonds. If the successor rashly increases taxes, it will inevitably have a greater impact on the economy. However, if there is no tax increase, if the government has no fiscal revenue to deal with the relatively large debt problem, it will be difficult for the government to proceed with many things. And this problem has always plagued the government. Many people are very concerned about this. If this problem cannot be solved or there is no clear answer, it means that tax increases are more likely.

"In this regard, we will not choose to increase taxes. Even if it is to increase taxes, it is mainly used to adjust the upgrading of related industries. After all, many of these industries in Qin State are upgrading and manufacturing." Li Si said.

Although the answer is still rather vague, this question cannot be avoided at all, which means that they may have to face the fact of raising taxes in the future.

Many reporters shook their heads, because all Qin people do not want to face tax increases, which means that their burden will be greatly increased. It's not just Li Si who said that. Even Feng Quji, the most hopeful prime minister, is ambiguous because he said that if Qin needs to increase taxes, he will increase taxes, if not, he will not increase taxes. Doesn’t that mean they must Will tax increase? For tax increases, this burden will bring them great disasters. This is for Qin State. It is definitely not good news.

South Korea, Xinzheng, Supreme Command.

"The Qin State media generally believes that the new government will increase taxes, because during the Shangwen government, a large number of bonds were issued, and taxes were very low, spending a lot of money, but earning limited money, which resulted in a larger amount of money. Fiscal deficit. This situation cannot be maintained for too long, and if the government issues new debt, it means that the old debt must be cleared away. Otherwise, it will cause a great disaster." Zhang Liang said. To.

"Are we in the same situation?" Han Shu asked Zhang Liang.

"Yes, but the debt problem is still within control. We can solve this problem by increasing taxes in the colonies. In this way, our finances will not have too many problems, and the country will not have to increase excessively. Taxes." Zhang Liang said. Zhang Liang adopted a transfer method to solve this problem. It was very simple. A large amount of tax was transferred to the colony, and the problem of domestic burden was solved by increasing taxes in the colony. As for everything that happened in the colony, they didn't care. Because what they know is that if they increase taxes at this time, the country will inevitably be chaotic. At the end of the chaos, South Korea loses all its colonies, but if the colony increases taxes, the situation in the colony may be unfavorable, but it can be corrected. This is Zhang Liang’s choice. He cannot choose an answer that is unfavorable to South Korea. Otherwise, the entire South Korea If it collapses, all situations will become extremely unfavorable. Under such circumstances, no one wants to do such a thing.

"Yeah. Very good. We can't see the turbulence in the domestic situation in South Korea. The people of Qin will inevitably make up for it in other ways, or take a stable measure to moderately resolve such contradictions, but the current situation , How long we can continue, this is not what we can solve." Han Shu said.

"Yes. King." Zhang Liang nodded and agreed. Therefore, many current issues need to be solved by ourselves. Otherwise, most things will be difficult to comply with, which will cause us a lot of trouble.

"It's just that, my lord, the colony's tax revenue cannot be increased too much. Otherwise, big problems will arise." Zhang Liang reminded.

"We have many, many colonies, we just add a little, add a little, a little bit." Han Shu said. It seems that these taxes don't add much. But what they don't know, South Korea's approach is an elite model. Tax increase means that the elites have the opportunity to make money, they will continue to diversify their tax pressure, and these tax pressures will continue to be dispersed. Disperse to a new pressure point. This pressure point is the most important place. people. The colonial people will increase for them. A lot of trouble.

Bangla. Port area. A South Korean customs officer is checking the work here. In fact, he just came to take a look. There is nothing else.

Relatively speaking, there are not many terminal facilities, such as large cranes. These equipment can only be concentrated in some important quay areas. Most areas require manual loading and unloading, or some simple and shabby lifting equipment, which are exported there. They are all agricultural products. They are all cash crops.

"What is going on there?" When the officials inspected, they saw the loading and unloading workers gathered in the dock area. They seem to be very angry, but they are helpless. But they are still fighting for something.

"Sorry, sir. We will deal with it as soon as possible," said a local official. They are the officials responsible for loading and unloading at the docks. Can they come here to work? As well as maintaining the operation of the wharf, they are the ones who do it, because only they can recruit a lot of cheap labor, without these cheap labor. Many things are difficult for them to proceed.

"Sir, they seem to be arguing about their salary." said an interpreter next to him.

"Oh. It seems that their salary is not very high." The official said. Then left. He doesn't need to entangle more on this issue, because there is absolutely no need to do so. Many things are like this. Give it to the people below. They will deal with such problems themselves.

Those dockers are indeed making trouble, but they are fighting for their salary, because the local tax increase, personal income tax has been raised to 25%, which means that a quarter of their income is gone. This is for these dockers. very bad. Very unfavorable. Because their income is not much, they are already in a state of reluctance to live, they simply do not have much to satisfy them in such a situation. They want to have children, and they live in slums in the suburbs, which are filthy. confusion. The living environment is extremely bad, but even so, they still did not give up the idea of ​​living, but now, the authorities want to take away a lot of their income, which means that some children in their family may not have enough to eat. They naturally want to fight.

However, the terminal said that it was unable to do anything. The reason is simple. Most of these things are provided by the authorities, and the tax is collected by the authorities. They are just here to do such a thing. Although these things are more difficult. However, the docks did not want to bear so much tax pressure. They had to solve such a problem. Therefore, they transferred these pressures to the dock workers.

This is very unfair and painful to them, and their lives are already at the bottom. They should not increase taxes towards people like them. This is a very unfavorable situation, but the authorities will not consider these. What they consider is solving most of the problems. They only collected a part of the income. The tax increase is unreasonable.
