Chen Maoqian, the head of the pimping gang, thought that pimps were the ceiling among gangsters, but he didn't expect that Zhang San was even more of a gangster than them.
I actually want to get some tax statistics.
If this succeeds, it will be incredible!
But for these wealthy businessmen, they are very conflicted inside. They want to maintain the status quo and keep a large gray area, so that they can evade taxes normally.
But tax evasion means they will be controlled by officials.
The money for offering tribute is also indispensable.
If the tax is calculated based on bookstores, it would be a legitimate business transaction. You should pay the exact amount and not even a penny less. This way you won't be controlled by others.
How to strike a balance.
After leaving the bookstore, the three of them discussed their plan.
Let’s wait and see.
They believed that the government would never allow Zhang Fei to do this.
If we do this, how can we exploit the people
This is simply being hostile to the entire ruling class!
But Zhang Fei was definitely not joking. He really decided to do this so that he could make a lot of money. In this day and age, you can't make much money just by filing lawsuits.
For Zhang Fei, any small lawsuit is a risk to his life, so why not take a big risk.
After seeing off Ma Tianhao and the other three wealthy men, Zhang Fei immediately convened a meeting since he moved into the bookstore.
In the lobby.
Looking at the dozen or so people sitting on both sides, Zhang Fei frowned and turned his head to Fan Li and asked, "Are these the only people?"
Fan Li said hurriedly, "That's a lot. Our bookstore has fewer people than Li Xingshou's bookstore."
“But it’s not enough.”
Zhang Fei said: "Your task this year is to recruit more officials from the government office."
Fan Li asked, “Is this okay?”
"What's wrong with that!"
Zhang Fei said: "The court is so overstaffed nowadays, let's share the burden, the court will thank us."
Fan Li said awkwardly: "It's redundant officials, not redundant clerks!"
Zhang Fei said: "If this official is gone, an official will have to take his place. It's the same principle."
"... ... ?"
Fan Li was speechless!
Is this really a truth
Zhang Fei asked again: "Is there any problem?"
Fan Li asked, "How many do you want to recruit?"
Zhang Fei spread out five fingers.
Fan Li breathed a sigh of relief: "Five is no problem."
"Fifty. And I want a clerk who knows taxes and accounts."
"... ... .?"
Fan Li looked at him with a question mark on his face.
Zhang Fei said: "Give them double the reward, I believe it is not difficult."
Fan Li was surprised and asked, "Double the reward?"
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "If our profits cannot double again next year, we will be a failure."
After saying this, he stood up, as if Fan Li had already agreed.
He was hanging around those who were spying on him.
Those people who were used as spies all looked very nervous. In this line of work, who wouldn't be afraid of this spies Zhang San
Snapped!
Zhang Fei suddenly patted a middle-aged man on the back and said, "Stand up straight."
The middle-aged man straightened his back subconsciously.
The others also straightened up.
Seeing this scene, Xu Zhiqian, who was sitting nearby, almost laughed out loud, thinking, I didn't expect this guy to be so intimidating.
Zhang Fei opened his mouth and said, "I won't introduce myself. If you are not familiar with me, you can go to Kaifeng Prefecture and ask. The yamen runners there know me better than my parents. Even if I turned into ash, they would still recognize me."
Everyone present was trying to hold back their laughter.
But no one doubted this statement. This year, Zhang San was definitely the number one on Kaifeng Prefecture's popularity list.
Zhang Fei asked again: "Do you know why I was able to succeed?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of the writers lit up, as if they had seen a martial arts secret book, and they all looked at Zhang Fei with a hint of expectation.
After a while, Zhang Fei slowly said, "Because I firmly believe in the law, I believe that everyone is equal on both sides of the law. I don't mind you getting along well with those clerks and runners, but I don't want to see you kowtow to them again. The court has rules and regulations. If they don't follow the rules, then we will sue them."
“This is not good!”
An old man in his fifties sitting at the front said.
This man's name is Xu Guangfu, and he is the most experienced tea and snack maker here.
Zhang Fei walked over, bent down, and asked in a threatening tone, "What do you think is wrong with this, Mr. Xu?"
"They are officials and we are civilians. Civilians should not fight against officials. If you do this, you will offend everyone sooner or later." Xu Guangfu said worriedly.
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Who said we want to fight with them? There is nothing wrong with giving them gifts during festivals, but we cannot let them dominate our business.
If you want to file a lawsuit, you have to bribe these officials first, so this business will never be big.
You must remember one thing, we are warriors of the law, rules are our way of survival, if the rules are broken, then there is no fun. Therefore, we must abide by the law more than anyone else. Human relations and worldly wisdom are indispensable, but the way to survive, I must not give up an inch, so that we can become bigger and stronger. "
When everyone heard this, they all felt that it made sense.
Do corrupt officials need people like you to spy on them
unnecessary.
The verdict will be based on whoever gives more money, it’s that simple.
The reason why today's spies can't make much money is very simple, that is, the role they can play is extremely limited.
If they do not follow the law, the people they spy on will die.
"As long as it's not against the law or regulations, I will take responsibility for you if something goes wrong."
This sentence gave the people who were listening to the letter a reassurance.
Xu Guangfu also remained silent.
Zhang Fei continued, "Starting next year, our bookstore will start a new business, which is to help people calculate taxes."
Then he told them the reasons and reasons behind it.
“No!”
Xu Guangfu stood up anxiously and said to Fan Li, "Sir, this is absolutely not allowed!"
Zhang Fei asked: "Why not?"
Xu Guangfu asked: "Do you know how many people you will offend by doing this?"
Zhang Fei said: "I only know that those who uphold the law should not be afraid of lawbreakers. Have you ever seen the sun and the moon turned upside down?"
Xu Guangfu smiled coldly: "I don't deny that your ability is above all of us, but you can't deny that you can have what you have today, all thanks to Xu Shisi. If Xu Shisi hadn't protected you, I'm afraid you would have been thrown into jail long ago."
Xu Zhiqian immediately stood up and said, "What protection? Please explain clearly, Mr. Xu. My father was only making an impartial judgment and did not bend the law for personal gain."
Zhang Fei raised his hand to calm the woman down, and then said to Xu Guangfu: "You are right, I cannot deny it, and now I am favored by Grand Secretary Wang, even more than before."
Xu Guangfu laughed and said, "It can be seen that you rely not on the law but on relationships. What basis do you have to say that?"
"shallow!"
Zhang Fei laughed, "Why don't you think about why I get their protection, but you can't? Is it because of your looks
Just as Madam Xu said, they are not defending me as a person, but my actions. If I were to be as servile and fawning as you are, they would definitely not support me anymore. "
"you... ."
Xu Guangfu was no match for Zhang Fei. He looked at Fan Li and said, "Sir, if you do this, your bookstore will be ruined."
Fan Li was very conflicted.
On the one hand, he was also very worried about this, as it was clearly a move against the officials, but on the other hand, he was fed up with being humiliated and wanted to hold his head high.
Ever since Zhang Fei joined their bookstore and won the lawsuit against Cao Dongdong, others have to show some respect to him when they see him.
It is said that it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.
He was unwilling to go back, and looked up at Xu Guangfu, "I agree with Sanlang's idea."
"All right!"
Xu Guangfu bowed to Fan Li and said, "I am timid and dare not accompany you to make big money. Please forgive me."
After saying that, he walked towards the door.
Zhang Fei, who was standing in the middle, hurriedly moved to the side.
Four older tea-service attendants stood up, bowed, and followed Xu Guangfu away.
These tea-drinking people have very close relations with the government, and they are unwilling and dare not go against those officials.
Zhang Fei didn't care about this at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "Hurry up and leave. Don't delay us from making a lot of money."
The rest were some young spies whose ideas were different from those of Xu Guangfu and his team.
The most terrifying thing these days is being poor.
There are people who commit corruption and bribery, so why should we be afraid of something legal
"very good!"
Zhang Fei smiled and nodded, saying, "Mr. Ma and his men just sent over several deals worth about a thousand strings of cash. Logically, they should all belong to me, but in order to get you used to our new rules quickly, I will count these deals as belonging to the bookstore. According to the rules, I will take 70% and the remaining 30% will belong to the bookstore."
Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this, 30% is still 300 strings of cash!
This soup is delicious enough.
Zhang Fei added: "I believe in giving more to those who are capable. You get what you work for. I will assign the remaining work to you. In addition, if you are outstanding and can attract more business to the bookstore, you can also join the bookstore as a partner and become one of the owners."
“Really…really?”
"of course it's true."
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "That's how I joined the bookstore. If I can do it, you can do it too! Mr. Fan, don't you agree?"
Fan Li nodded and said, "Not bad."
He really wanted to have a few more partners, because he now felt more and more that he was completely being stepped on by Zhang Fei.
Those who were listening to the pens were very excited.
In ancient times, people never paid attention to ability in determining positions. No matter how well one did, at most he could be a housekeeper. The master-servant relationship could not be changed. Zhang Fei's move undoubtedly broke this convention.
If you have the ability, you can also be the master.
Zhang Fei added: "If you want to stay, you will sign a new contract, which will detail how your future remuneration will be calculated and the rules for becoming a partner."
Li Si immediately stepped forward and handed them the contract that had been drafted long ago.
Xu Zhiqian came forward quietly, "Do you have anything else to say?"
Zhang Fei didn't know that she was referring to the free litigation for the people, which was also the only reason why she joined the bookstore. He whispered, "First, take a look at their abilities before making personnel arrangements! You don't even understand this."
Xu Zhiqian's snow-white cheeks blushed. "I have never done business before, so how can I think so carefully?" She then asked, "How do you know all this?"
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "You forgot that my family used to be in business."
"Zhang San! Zhang San!"
“Third brother…!”
Suddenly, I heard shouting from outside.
Xu Zhiqian said: "It seems to be Cao Yanei and his men."
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "If he doesn't bring my reward, then they are finished."
