The industrial base of Ambiluo State is almost zero. There are mostly handicraft and light industrial enterprises here, with the largest proportion being mining companies and smelters.
The ore veins in the Yakul Mountains were discovered one after another, allowing some mining companies and metal companies to establish their own processing plants in Ambluo State, and then transported them by sea to some industrial cities on the east coast and the north.
In recent years, as the immigrant population has continued to increase, more and more companies have settled in the west. Taxes here are cheaper and labor costs are very low. Labor unions have almost no presence in the west.
Since the previous branch president of the Western Union resigned voluntarily, the Western Workers Union was almost completely paralyzed. It was only in the past two years that it resumed operations.
Various convenient conditions have promoted the large-scale development of the central and eastern parts of the west, and a large number of enterprises have settled in the west, providing necessary assistance for the economic development of the west.
However, these companies will have some problems, especially in terms of taxation. The tax system in the west has been paralyzed in the past. In other words, they have not paid taxes at all in recent years!
It is not normal for the empire's enterprises not to pay taxes to the empire. The four bills on the tax system passed under the chairmanship of Kubal at the beginning of this year have shown how much the old party government attaches importance to the money bag.
At this time, the Imperial Tax Administration sent a whole team to Ambiro State, and their purpose was obvious.
They want to rebuild the tax system in the west, and they will start from Ambiro State, which makes the businessmen in the state panic.
So they joined forces with the Chamber of Commerce and jointly requested to visit the governor, hoping that Dulin could come forward to solve some problems within their capabilities for these entrepreneurs.
This is also a common method used by capitalists to resolve their demands in the South. Legally "kidnapping" local government officials through influence on society and other means has become the main method of appeal for capitalist groups.
If there are any demands that cannot be solved, then add a thousand workers who may lose their jobs at any time, and the matter will become much easier to solve.
The chamber of commerce manager also felt that this was a good opportunity. In the process, he would reconcile the conflicts and differences between the capitalists and Dulin, and then resolve the unreliable content in the external rumors and press the matter.
But sometimes having ideas is indeed a good thing, but having too many ideas is not necessarily a good thing.
Dulin received a group of people in the living room of the state government, including the manager of the Chamber of Commerce, a representative of Jindis Mining Group, a representative of Olivia Mining Group, and representatives of two light industry manufacturing groups, a total of five people .
After Dulin asked Dove to bring tea, coffee and snacks, he sat on the sofa with his legs crossed. After a brief conversation, Dulin said, "I don't like hypocritical social interactions. Let's light up the lights. Let’s start directly from the topic, what do you think?”
Several people looked at each other and nodded, and then their eyes focused on the manager of the General Chamber of Commerce. His scalp was slightly numb, and he managed to keep the smile on his face and said with a smile, "Dear Mr. Governor, there are some things in society recently. Some rumors generally say that Ambiluo State is going to restart the collection of various taxes, is that true?”
Documents from the General Administration of Taxation accompanied the commissioners to Ambluo State, but before the specific situation was announced to the public, these people already knew about some of the next government work.
Therefore, it is not unreasonable for Magus to be wary of the rise of capitalism. When the government’s internal working information has almost become public information known to the capitalists, this is actually not good for the government, the empire, and the entire society. a good thing.
Dulin nodded, "Starting from the end of the month, the Ambiluo State Taxation Bureau will be re-established. Paying taxes in accordance with the law is a system that every citizen and enterprise in the empire must abide by. Even I will pay taxes according to the regulations."
This sentence suddenly blocked what the manager wanted to say next. He opened his mouth and then touched his eyebrows. "Your Excellency, Governor, what I mean is that the situation in Ambiro State is different from that in developed areas. There are fewer opportunities here." , The survival situation of enterprises is relatively difficult, so I think it is possible to make some changes through local policies, such as adjusting the tax rate? "
Du Lin looked at him for several seconds. Although his eyes were calm, he always gave people a huge pressure, forcing the manager to look down at the dessert plate on the coffee table.
At this time, Du Lin asked, "You? When you say 'I', do you mean you personally, or do you or more people?"
The manager of the General Chamber of Commerce was speechless, then lowered his head and said, "I have been entrusted by some to represent some entrepreneurs in Ambluo State, including seeking solutions to some of their demands."
Dulin nodded, then pointed to the door, "Then you can go out and tell the entrepreneurs you represent that this is the Ambluo State Government, not a paradise where capitalists can play around with just waving their money. . If they want to make demands, they must first correct their attitude.”
"You don't even want to appear in person for such a thing. Do you think I'm not qualified to meet with them?" Du Lin sneered and lit a cigarette. "Help me convey a message to them, or come to see me in person." Or shut up!"
The door of the reception room opened, and two staff members stood outside the door and looked at the manager of the General Chamber of Commerce. The manager's face turned pale and red, his chest bulged, he stood up and turned around to leave.
After he took a few steps, Du Lin stopped him, "You didn't say goodbye to me politely."
The manager paused, twitched his eyes, turned around and bowed, "It's a great honor to chat with you, Mr. Governor, I'll take my leave now."
Du Lin nodded, "What's your name?" The manager opened his mouth and before he could speak, Du Lin waved his hand again as if to ward off mosquitoes, "Forget it, I don't want to know, you can leave. ”
Sandra sat aside and laughed out loud, then quickly shut her mouth. The laughter was like a slap in the manager's face, making him feel his face burning.
In Ambluo State, the manager of the State Chamber of Commerce may not be a great role, but over the past many years, his influence on the business side of the entire state and his influence on the state government are also extraordinary.
If nothing else happens, in four or six years, he will have the opportunity to work in a developed area. But now he is so humiliated by Du Lin. Once word gets out, it will most likely destroy all his efforts!
What's even more irritating is...he just can't do anything to Du Lin!
