Chapter five hundred and eighty fifth gambling(1/2)
Except for the opening statement about the wife, the rest are all practical things.
Nothing is a bit nonsense.
Guo Dan's speech was really beyond everyone's expectations.
No one expected that Guo Dan would be so fierce that he would just throw a million taels out.
So much so that after Guo Dan left, many people were still standing there stupidly.
They still feel that this is a bit unreal.
And wealthy businessmen like Zhou Feng and others immediately ran to find Guo Dan.
First of all, they were eager to know whether this was true!
They think Guo Dan may not be able to take out one million taels!
Secondly, a careful analysis of Guo Dan’s subsidy plan actually centers around them, rather than ordinary people. The welfare of the people is just to ensure that prices do not rise and that they will not lose their jobs because of this.
All the main profits are given to the merchants.
Of course, they hope to get a specific implementation plan immediately.
How should we make these profits?
But unfortunately, they all lost.
Guo Dan did not return to his residence, nor was he in the money shop. No one expected that Guo Dan was sitting in the court at this moment discussing the matter with the court president Wang Yu and the litigation court president Xue Wenqing.
This is because since the implementation of the new tariff law, everyone seems to have ignored the Third House. After all, the Third House's responsibilities are only to maintain social stability and have little to do with money. They cannot interfere with the court's policies.
It's useless to find them.
Court.
"You said...you said our court will enact your subsidy plan?"
Wang Yu looked at Guo Dan incredibly.
Guo Dan nodded and said, "I have mentioned it repeatedly before. I hope our Weihui Mansion can unite, and the Third House is the core of our Weihui Mansion. Of course, I don't want the Third House to suddenly disappear from the people's vision in such a crisis. Instead, I hope the Third House can stand up in time and stand with the people. In addition, if it is not published in my personal name, it will be somewhat lacking. After all, personal prestige and the law are different."
Wang Yu and Xue Wenqing couldn't help but look at each other.
Everyone thinks it is so incredible.
Xue Wenqing suddenly stood up and bowed: "People Guo are noble and self-reliant. Mr. Xue really admires me. Please accept Mr. Xue."
Guo Dan’s suggestion is naturally very beneficial to the Third Hospital. After all, it is to pay money, not collect money. Guo Dan is doing it himself.
However, Guo Dan could have announced the entire subsidy plan without going through the court, because it belongs to the finance department, and Guo Dan has always been under the supervision of the finance department of Weihui Mansion.
It is not an exaggeration to say that he is noble and honest, self-disciplined and dedicated to the public!
Guo Tan smiled and said, "Director Xue, there is no need to do this. I am a more practical person. I am not taking care of you, nor is I giving you charity. This is actually something you have won through hard work. You have done very well over the years, and I am also very satisfied. If I am not satisfied with you, then you can't get a tael of silver from me."
Xue Wenqing smiled and said, "We do these things not to satisfy Captain Guo, but to satisfy the people and make Wei Hui Mansion better."
Guo Tan smiled and said, "The people are satisfied, Wei Hui Mansion is better. This is exactly what I want. Otherwise, why would I spend one million taels? This is much more money than the construction of the Third Hospital!"
In fact, the reason why Guo Dan did this is the same as the reason why he established the Third Hospital, because he could not stay here every day. I need to establish the prestige of the Third Hospital so that they can better manage the place.
If he portrays himself as a savior and has prestige over the Third House, then when he is not here, a crisis may arise.
After confirmation, the court was naturally very happy to accept this request.
As for how the court promulgated, even Guo Dan prepared the draft for them.
In fact, it is to promulgate what Guo Dan said in the name of the law into regulations.
Although it is not a real law, it has legal effects.
If Guo Dan doesn't give this money, you can sue him.
But one thing is not listed as a clause, it is about the number of one million taels.
Guo Dan’s explanation is very straightforward. I have to mobilize this million tael from all over the country, and I can’t afford one million taels at once. So if this is listed as a regulation, the court will inevitably interfere in the finance.
You must make sure I took out a million taels, and you must check the accounts, ask this, ask that.
This is something that Guo Dan cannot accept. Not to mention that the court does not have the power to check taxes, even if there is one, this million tael is not just tax money, but also Guo Dan’s personal money. Why should the court check private accounts?
The court only needs to ensure that these subsidies can be reached by everyone.
This is what the court should do.
If Guo Danyi was not careful and only took out 990,000 taels, would the court want to convict Guo Dan? That would be a bit irritating!
This is not about taking cash, this kind of subsidy.
The court also felt that Guo Dan’s statement made sense. In fact, they were not very good at calculating these accounts. Maybe they had to ask the money shop to help them calculate, so why bother?
The amount does not matter. The important thing is whether this subsidy is really given to everyone.
They agreed.
On the same day, the court listed the subsidy plan as an regulations and announced it to the public based on Guo Dan's draft.
The people of Weihui Mansion are already accustomed to the authority of the court. Any regulations that the court promulgated must be abide by, otherwise, the pickets will come to you to talk to you and ask about your well-being.
This undoubtedly gave the entire Weihui Mansion a reassurance.
Moreover, businessmen don’t need to look for Guo Dan anymore. It’s useless to ask Guo Dan now. They have already written very clearly. Do you want Guo Dan to violate the law?
Businessmen are now busy calculating what advantages these subsidies will bring to themselves.
Textile workshop.
"Master, come out, calculate it."
An accountant took an account and quickly came to Qinzhuang excitedly and handed the account to Qinzhuang and said, "Master, if we calculate it based on our current production situation, our price will have a great advantage in any place, and it will even be better than before."
"Yeah?"
Qin Zhuang excitedly borrowed the accounts and looked carefully. After a while, he suddenly frowned, "If we go back to the production method before the adjustment, our price will be similar to before."
The accountant nodded and said, "Yes, because most of the poor clothes used to be bought in Weihui Mansion. This part does not involve too much tariffs, but when we sell clothes from other places, the silk materials we use are very good, and we have to pay a lot of tariffs back and forth."
Qin Zhuang frowned, and after a while, he nodded and said, "I understand, I understand. It turns out... it turns out that he had planned to do this a long time ago."
Other merchants are also very similar to the situation in Qinzhuang. If the production plan is adjusted, the price of their goods will become extremely advantageous in various places, but if they return to the pre-adjustment, their prices will not have any advantage.
From this we can see that Guo Dan is definitely not impulsive. The reason why he went to various workshops every day to check out their production plans, costs, profits, and gave them advice is all purpose.
His comments were based on the entire subsidy plan.
In other words, Guo Dan had already decided to do this before he came, or had this plan.
At the same time, the money shop was crowded!
Those merchants who were about to leave Weihui Mansion, or those who had already taken the bill of exchange and had not left, rushed to the bank, returned the bill of exchange to the bank, and took out the silver.
In other words, they plan to stay in Weihui Mansion.
Rents are reduced, no-profit loans are reduced, and transportation costs are reduced in half.
Only if you are stupid and flawed will you leave Wei Hui Mansion.
And on that day, many people had already received real money subsidies from money shops.
Almost all these people were merchants who came to Weihui Mansion to rent houses and trade within these three months. They could go to the money house to get the subsidy they deserve with their deed tax invoices.
The money bank cashed out on the spot.
Although there are not many people in this group and not a lot of money, they are all real money and have been taken out, which makes everyone believe in the entire subsidy plan.
Jiang Yinglin sat in the tea shop next to the money shop, looking at the merchants who came out with silver, with confusion on his face.
It's really a silver deal!
No government has done this before.
This really opened his eyes!
No matter how confused he was, he still gave Guo Dan a thumbs up in his heart. This guy is really extraordinary. You say he is cunning, treacherous, and greedy for money, but so many people in the world who claim to be upright will not do this.
Guo Dan is not a person with millions of taels. It is a bit difficult to get one million taels.
"I see!"
Huang Daxiao suddenly exclaimed: "Guo Dan is gamble."
"bet?"
Jiang Yinglin said curiously: "What are you betting on?"
Huang Daxiao said: "Guo Danding knows that the new tariff law will actually harm the interests of some powerful people. The reason why the government and the opposition support the new tariff law is to deal with him. He bet that the court will not be able to support it first. I guess that one million taels are scary, and he can't afford so much money at all."
Jiang Yinglin suddenly realized and frowned and said, "You are right, there is a possibility."
As he spoke, there was a little sadness on his face.
Because he also believes that what Huang Daxiao said is very likely to happen.
The new tariff law not only imposes taxes on wealthy people in disguise, but also harms the interests of officials and the canal transportation. The tricks here are very big, and there is no way to start now. How long can those people endure?
