Chapter 2238 2240 [Take the way of the other, and return it to the other body]
Subsequently, Tongfu Inn announced that it would suspend operations for comprehensive repairs and decorations.
Yihonglou on the opposite side saw it in his eyes and couldn't help feeling anxious.
Sai Diaochan knew in his heart that the reason why Yihonglou had better business than Tongfu Inn was that its grade was indeed higher;
But once the decoration of Tongfu Inn is completed, the grade of Yihonglou will not be high.
Moreover, Yihonglou must make a profit after all, and it is impossible to always operate at a loss. When the price of vegetables rises, customers are likely to lose a large number of customers.
Therefore, she immediately thought of a way to draw the bottom line, trying to poach the guy from the Tongfu Inn. At that time, even if Tongfu Inn reopens, it will still be impossible without the staff.
…
Subsequently, Sai Diaochan secretly contacted Lu Xiucai, Bai Zhantang, and Guo Furong, and asked for a high salary to poach corners.
Everyone’s salary and treatment have been greatly improved, the monthly salary has been increased from two taels to four taels, and there are four days of vacation every month.
In addition, she also customized different benefits according to the characteristics of each person. For example, a personal maid was arranged for Xiao Guo, Lu Xiucai was equipped with his own study room, and eiderdown quilts were prepared for Bai Zhantang.
Such a thoughtful arrangement shows Sai Diaochan's scheming.
But her plan is doomed to fail.
Lu Xiucai is now a shareholder of Tongfu Inn; Bai Zhantang has always been indifferent to fame and fortune, and has a deep relationship with Tong Xiangyu;
Therefore, Sai Diaochan's poaching was unsuccessful. Instead, Bai Zhantang took the sheep and stole Yihonglou's account books.
After looking through it, I realized that the reason why Yihonglou dared to lose money and make money was because it had been evading taxes.
Nowadays, the taxation of the imperial court is very serious, and taxes account for almost half of the income. Tongfu Hotel pays taxes according to regulations and abides by laws and regulations, so its operating costs remain high.
In comparison, Yihonglou tax evasion, the operating cost is naturally greatly reduced. Therefore, even if the price of vegetables is discounted, she still makes money.
"No wonder, let me just say, she has such a large discount for her guests, so why is she not afraid of losing money? It turned out that this method was used to reduce costs." After reading the account books, Tong Xiangyu suddenly realized.
"Shopkeeper, as long as I hand over this account book to my uncle, she will be overwhelmed." Seeing this, Xiang Nan sneered.
Tax evasion, according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, anyone who intentionally evades taxes will be punished with a cane of seventy and two years in prison, and half of his personal property will be confiscated.
"Okay, let's do it like this." Guo Furong agreed very much.
She likes to be kind and friendly, to punish **** and eliminate evil. Sai Diaochan dared to evade taxes and should be severely punished by the law.
"Forget it, she's not benevolent, we can't be unrighteous." Tong Xiangyu waved his hands and said.
Although Sai Diaochan is bad, he steals the business of Tongfu Inn, and poachs the corners of Tongfu Inn. His behavior is indeed very unethical. But seventy sticks, two years in prison, and half of the property confiscated, this punishment is too much.
She is still willing to give Sai Diaochan a chance to reform himself. If she still doesn't know how to restrain herself, it won't be too late to report her.
"Shopkeeper, you are still too kind." Xiang Nan couldn't help but sigh after hearing what she said.
Tong Xiangyu in "Wulin Biography" does have a bit of the heart of the Virgin.
It's just that people like Sai Diaochan may not understand her painstaking efforts. Tong Xiangyu held her hands high and let her go. Not only would she not be grateful, but she would even worsen her tricks.
In the play, if it wasn't for Yihonglou's sudden bankruptcy, Sai Diaochan would never let it go, and would definitely fight Tong Xiangyu to the end.
"Yes, shopkeeper, is it worth it for that kind of person?" Guo Furong asked in confusion.
"Remember, you have to forgive others and forgive others." Tong Xiangyu said earnestly, "If you have done everything you can to get rid of the evil, I am afraid that some of you will not be here anymore."
Hearing what she said, Lao Bai and Xiao Guo felt close to each other, so they didn't stop her anymore.
…
Tong Xiangyu then found Sai Diaochan and returned her account book to her.
Sai Diaochan held the ledger, her face turning green and then pale. She didn't expect such important evidence to be in the hands of Tong Xiangyu, "How did you get it?"
"You don't even ask, what did my brother do before?" Xiang Nan patted Bai Zhantangdao's shoulder with a smile and said.
"Low-key, low-key." Bai Zhantang laughed.
"Shopkeeper Sai, I just couldn't understand how you made so much money before. Looking at the account book, aren't you afraid of accidents?" Tong Xiangyu said.
"Are you afraid of still doing business? This is called horses without night grass and not fat." Sai Diaochan gritted his teeth.
"You are getting fat, have you ever thought about what will happen to the country? Everyone like you doesn't pay taxes, who builds the roads in front of the gate, who builds the bridges by the river, what the guards on the frontier eat, what the guard posts at the city gate drink. What." Tong Xiangyu said earnestly, "Let's not talk about the distance, if there were no Yamen policemen patrolling the streets every day, Qixia Town would have peace now, and your Yihong Building would have been smashed."
"Shopkeeper Tong, listening to Jun's words is better than reading ten years of books." Sai Diaochan nodded, "I know what to do, so I'll go first."
"Don't worry, you must pay the tax before tonight, otherwise, I will pay it for you." Tong Xiangyu said.
"Really?!" Sai Diaochan said happily when she heard it.
"The amount is talking about the ledger." Tong Xiangyu explained.
Sai Diaochan's smile froze for a moment, then she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I'll hand it over!"
"Boss Sai, our shopkeeper pities you as a young girl, it's not easy to start a business, so I let you go." Xiang Nan said, "Otherwise, according to my idea, I would have reported it to the government a long time ago. Xiucai, tell her that intentional tax evasion is the right thing to do." What crime?"
"According to Article 29 of Chapter 4 of the second volume of the "Law of the Ming Dynasty", it is expressly stipulated that anyone who intentionally evades taxes will be punished with a staff of seventy, two years in prison, and half of his property confiscated." Lu Xiucai replied immediately.
When Sai Diaochan heard this, her face turned pale.
"Boss Sai, I solemnly warn you that we welcome fair competition." Bai Zhantang also warned, "If you dare to play tricks again in the future, don't blame us for being rude to you."
"I see." Sai Diaochan nodded, and walked out with strength, her legs were a little weak.
…
Subsequently, Sai Diaochan was forced to pay more than 700 taels of tax back, and once bitten by a snake for ten years, she was afraid of well ropes, and never dared to evade taxes since then.
Because of this, her operating costs have increased sharply, and the prices of wine and vegetables have returned to high levels within a few days, and the price/performance ratio is far from as high as before.
As a result, many guests complained and stopped going to Yihonglou for consumption, waiting for the opening of Tongfu Inn. After all, Tongfu Inn is the real thing.
