Dominate the Country

"Brother, this is our home."

As Shen Quan finished speaking, the two brothers turned a corner and a four-story building stood in front of Shen Yuan. This is the new home of the Shen family.

Shen Yuan is very familiar with this completely new building. He also lived in this kind of tall building when he was in Qinhuangdao. However, the accommodation building of the unit where he settled was far less good than the residential building, and because of the loopholes in the original design, it was built with six floors. As a result, the steam engine for lifting water could only barely deliver water to the fourth floor. As a result, countless people regarded the fifth and sixth floors as a daunting task. What's the concept of lifting water to the fifth and sixth floors every day?

Shen Yuan's rank was low, and he was only allocated a small room with one bedroom, one living room, one bathroom and one kitchen. His follower could only live in the living room all day. The first thing he did every morning was to pack his bedding and roll it up on the small balcony.

But after a few years, Shen Yuan felt that there was nothing wrong with this suite. He had adapted to this living mode!

With Shen Yuan's income, he could certainly rent or even buy a large three-bedroom apartment in the city, but Shen Yuan didn't. Because he wanted to save money, and he was not sure how many years he could work in Qinhuangdao. So now the Shen family has a new three-bedroom house not far away in addition to the three-bedroom house in front of them, which has exhausted all of Shen Yuan's savings.

Even the shares of the military-civilian joint-stock companies in western Sichuan and northeast China were sold. Just to buy a house in Nanjing. Is he going to get married soon?

There are a total of 40 households living in this four-story building in front of them. This is one of the earliest residential buildings in Nanjing. There are five units in the building, and Shen Yuan's family lives on the second floor of Unit B, Unit B1.

This house was the compensation paid by Shunfeng Real Estate Company after the Shen family's old house was demolished, and there was also a hundred silver dollars. To be honest, at that time, Shunfeng was very generous to offer such a price. But now looking back at the prices of that year, and looking at the current housing prices and land prices in Nanjing, the Shen family really lost a lot of money.

The one hundred silver dollars solved many problems for the Shen family back then, and even this kind of house, which was very awkward in the eyes of people of this era, was accepted by the Shen family.

Father and mother Shen had one room, Shen Quan and sister each had one room.

Then Shen Quan got married, then his sister got married, and then the third generation of the Shen family was born...

No matter how uncomfortable it is, this is also a house to shelter from the wind and rain, right?

So the Shen family has lived here for so many years.

They lived here until Shen Quan got married and had children, and until Shen Yuan's younger sister got married.

They lived here until last year when Shen Yuan finally saved enough money to let his parents buy a new house in Nanjing again.

Shen Yuan did not feel homesick. When he entered the door of his house and the door was opened, he looked at his parents' familiar but much older faces. Shen Yuan, who was kneeling on his knees, could not control his emotions in an instant and buried his head in tears. When he got married in Sichuan, his parents were not around. His first wife died in childbirth, and he endured the pain of losing his wife and son alone.

Shen's father and mother were in tears. Because they knew that their eldest son had paid too much for this family.

"Silly child, call uncle quickly." Shen Quan's daughter-in-law was standing by.

Real conditions determine social customs. When high-rise residential buildings rose from the ground in Nanjing, and more and more Nanjing people moved into these "narrow" apartment buildings, the original etiquette and customs of women not seeing outsiders were quickly broken by the ruthless reality. Although compared with the entire Chinese society, such families are still a minority, but this is a sign, a trend, there will always be a minority that will become the majority.

Because with the development of the times, the living area of ​​​​residential households in cities will only become smaller and smaller, and this phenomenon will become more and more common. In terms of social influence, it is the city that affects the countryside, not the countryside that affects the city.

Of course, when guests are invited to eat at home, women will still not sit at the table.

But today is a family dinner.

After dinner, the family, whose eyes were as red as rabbits, went downstairs to take Shen Yuan to the new house not far away, leaving Shen Yuan's long-term servant to clean the room and organize the things. Shen Yuan followed his parents and brothers back home.

When relatives who had been separated for many years met, there were countless words to talk about. Moreover, Shen Yuan wanted to get to know Nanjing again. What news could be more reliable and detailed than the news from his relatives? It was just a sudden change that disrupted Shen Yuan's plan. When the family returned home, they found that there were visitors from the Shen family.

Zhang Dahai sat on the stool a little awkwardly, and next to him was his third brother Zhang Dajiang. He was not familiar with the Shen family. Today was even his first meeting with Shen Quan. It was his third brother Zhang Dajiang who was familiar with Shen Quan.

Because Zhang Dashan and Zhang Youcai joined the army, the Zhang family was treated preferentially. Not only did Zhang Dahai enter the technical school, but Zhang Dajiang also successfully entered the technical school. However, Zhang Dahe, the youngest of the Zhang brothers, started to study in school seriously. Zhang Dajiang, who went to a technical school like his second brother, did not learn to be a blacksmith but a chef. He now runs a small restaurant in Nanjing. Shen Quan often eats there, and the two became familiar with each other after a few visits.

The reason for their coming this time is that Zhang Dahai bought a spring workshop in Taiping Mansion on the edge of Nanjing. For this workshop, the Zhang family could be said to have emptied their own wealth and accumulated money. Zhang Dashan and Zhang Youcai had to borrow money. Borrowed money. Because everyone can see how easy the spring business is now. As long as the quality is up to standard, there will be no worries about sales. Zhang Dahai took down the workshop in June, and it has been almost two months now. The business is very good, and he has made a lot of money. It will not take long to get back the capital, but the taxes have also been paid, which is distressing. What's more, the Zhang family is also preparing to enter the horse-drawn carriage market, so the transaction volume will be even greater.

When people are under pressure from foreign debt, they always want to save all their money. Chinese people generally don't like to be in debt, and the Zhang family does too.

Of course Zhang Dahai does not dare to evade taxes, but he can avoid taxes reasonably. This is already an open secret in southeastern China. Although there are no specialized accounting firms in Chinese society to do this, the so-called accountants in China are still very traditional accountants. Almost all the people who can help with "reasonable tax avoidance" are in the government's tax department. Because in China today, they are the only ones who know all the tax details and have professional accounting skills, while the other side still wears the corresponding official skin.

That is simply being a player and a referee at the same time.

Moreover, Taiping Prefecture [Wuhu and Dangtu] is located to the west of Nanjing. It only takes a day to get there, and the distance is very close.

"You want me to give..."

Shen Quan's mouth grew bigger. He wanted to laugh. Can you, Zhang Dajiang, not know his details? Shen Quan has only been working in the tax system for two years, and he is still an absolute rookie. How can he afford this job?

Although the extra money comes quickly, not everyone can do this job. You must understand all the rules and regulations regarding taxation. Otherwise, you will be invited over respectfully, and you will only get a few things out after working for a long time. This will be embarrassing.

Many people in the tax department are now taking private jobs because the court has not made specific regulations. No one would leave money without taking it, and the person who started this source was the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce.

What kind of plan is behind this? If Chen Ming doesn't say anything, no one will take the initiative to stir up trouble.

"Second brother, no matter how junior you are, you have only been working for two years. Do you still not understand the rules here? No matter what you do, you can reduce some taxes, right? I'm not asking you to maximize tax avoidance all at once. , it depends on how much you can save. And the remuneration will be based on the market rules, and you will definitely not miss a penny."

The Zhang brothers are not befriending the current Shen Quan, but the future Shen Quan. As long as Shen Quan can continue working in the tax field, he will be a connection that cannot be ignored.

With the establishment of the national dynasty, the status of these military subordinates has also weakened to a certain extent as the enthusiasm for joining the army has declined. The Zhang family made their fortune as soldiers with Zhang Dashan and Zhang Youcai. However, after the special period passed and everything returned to "normal" Chinese society, military dependents became somewhat worthless. Especially military dependents who have already "made a fortune". After all, there are too many such military dependents in the entire society. However, those military dependents who are still living in poverty are more 'powerful'.

The Zhang family is engaged in business, and they began to weave their own human network when their status as military relatives continued to weaken. In China, where things are changing from east to west, it has once again become a very important social media. Zhang Dajiang got acquainted with Shen Quan by chance and established a good friendship. This was an innate convenience.

Nanjing is the nearest big city to Taiping Mansion, and it is also the market that Zhang's carriage must enter in the future. Even though Shen Quan's status is average, he has a good brother. Those are people who can participate in the training courses of the Central Political Academy as outstanding local officials.

The honest-looking brothers Zhang Dahai and Zhang Dajiang have actually investigated everything. Despite Zhang Dahai's cramped appearance, he gives the impression that he is an honest and responsible person.

Not to mention Shen Quan, even Shen Yuan, who was watching the whole process, probably didn't notice it at all. The Zhang brothers acted as if they didn't know he existed at all.

So, never judge someone by their appearance, otherwise you will really suffer a big loss.

…

Shen Yuan just watched from the side, his face expressionless, but mentally he was extremely surprised. It was not that he had never heard of such a thing, but in Qinhuangdao, he had never seen it with his own eyes. On the first day he returned to Nanjing, he directly saw this "legendary" reasonable tax avoidance. The originally unfamiliar and vague image of Nanjing became a strong outline in his mind.

"Dad, if we follow the market rules mentioned by the Zhang brothers, how much more can the second brother get this month?" The gift money brought by the Zhang brothers was a full 500 Chinese yuan.

"The second brother told me about this. The Zhang family's spring workshop can make 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a month. If the horse-drawn carriage business is added, the figure will probably double. This large and small If you add one yuan for tax, it’s not a small number, it’s a few thousand yuan.”

"If the second son can seize this opportunity, the Zhang family will give him one or two hundred yuan a month no matter what."

This income plus Shen Quan's salary is not much lower than the salary of Shen Yuan, an official. And the Zhang family's spring workshop is just a small one. Don't those big guys who do accounting for the big chamber of commerce have an income ten times or dozens of times higher? That's much higher than their normal salary. Shen Yuan was also puzzled by this.

When Shen Quan came back after sending the Zhang brothers away, Shen Yuan pulled him and said, "Doing reasonable tax avoidance for companies and enterprises, the income is not low. Why is there no one who specializes in this? Is the entire Nanjing market full of public servants taking private jobs?" This phenomenon made Shen Yuan a little unacceptable. This is the rhythm of doing a second job, and it is absolutely high-paying.

"Not only the whole Nanjing, but also Shanghai, Ningbo, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Yangzhou, and the entire southeast." This is an open secret in southern China.

Shen Quan said to his eldest brother without any scruples: "As for doing this specifically? The risk is too great. Without this official title, those bosses who begged you for help the day before will forget you in a blink of an eye. The most important thing is that the court did not say that the tax system is not allowed to do private work. As long as there is no mandatory decree from the top, you can do it for one day at a time." Who doesn't want to wear an official title? Although this thing can't last long no matter how you look at it. "Besides, those who do reasonable tax avoidance for big companies and enterprises now, even though they don't show up, are all big shots in the tax system.

Some of them have even started to bring in younger brothers."

Shen Quan's words actually have another meaning. He is telling Shen Yuan: Don't take skills too seriously. If you don't have this official skin, those factory and company bosses may not come to you.

Because any interest group will protect their food, this is the natural instinct of all objects with thoughts.

The tax system will also protect its food. In the evolution of this phenomenon, the tax system has unknowingly regarded this "reasonable tax avoidance" as its inherent interest.

"Brother, you don't know. When the tax bureaus in some places check the accounts, they will even ask who the company's accounts are done by. It must be someone in the tax system, otherwise you can wait for bad luck..."

The tax department is really black when it becomes black. The general environment continues like this, and this interest is not something that outsiders can easily reach out for.

Not to mention that the society lacks such "accounting experts" who can make enterprises disclose reasonable tax avoidance. Even if there are such "accounting experts", how many people who do business dare to offend the tax department? Even if there are big businessmen behind them, they will not confront the tax department head-on, right?

"We still have to wait for the court to make a system. The tax system takes private work. No matter who says this, it is unreliable. It depends on when the court will make the move." Shen Quan thought of some gossip within the system. Many people in the tax system think that the next cabinet will take charge. This year should be the last good time. This change of term is a node!

"But this incident has made the accounting industry very popular. Brother, you don't know it because you are away from home. In the past two years, in June and July every year, people from all over the country come to Jinling Business College to register for the accounting exam. After these people pass the assessment of the business school, some of them have excellent grades and can obtain the qualification to audit the class, but 95% of them don't even have the qualification to audit the class. At most, they can take the adult college entrance examination under the name of Jinling Business College."

"Those who are capable and perseverant can just follow the regular candidates of the business school to pass the exam one by one, and after getting the accountant qualification certificate, the hard work will be over."

"But most people are bamboo shoots. It's all in vain."

"It's already the fifth year of Chengtian. In less than a year, that is, next summer, the first batch of students majoring in accounting at the business school will graduate. The good days of the tax system should also be over. Professionals who graduated from business schools have studied for three years in business schools. Although their experience is not as rich as those in the tax system, they have no less knowledge points."

"There will definitely be a big conflict at that time."

"Especially when the cabinet is about to change next year, I think the days of the tax system making extra money will not last long."...

Shen Quan said a lot of things, and Shen Yuan heard it all.
