- Chapter 762 - Eating from the bowl and looking at the pot
According to the calculation, the central government of the empire not only failed to collect taxes from the alliance in ten years, but also had to pay 3.3 trillion to the alliance?
That is absolutely impossible.
Let’s not talk about whether the empire is willing to give it or not, they simply can’t take out the money.
On the contrary, the tax department and even the various imperial departments that need the tax department’s funding are looking forward to the high taxes paid by the alliance to fill their holes.
The total tax revenue of the central government of the empire in a year is about 15 trillion to 20 trillion – this is the net income after deducting the 40% total tax amount from various places after leaving it to various places, and then deducting a large amount of tax costs.
This is a very large number, but the empire is too big, and there are too many places to spend money. No matter how much income there is, it is not enough. There are holes everywhere to fill, and wars to fight everywhere.
They can’t give money to the alliance, and they can’t even refuse the alliance’s money.
However, this war expenditure that should be paid to the alliance is clearly here, how can they just ignore it?
This matter was also the key point of the repeated negotiations between the alliance officials and the imperial central government on Holy Terra before the signing of the “Alliance Plan”.
At the beginning, the price calculated by the alliance was different from the price calculated by the imperial military department.
The alliance calculated that it would cost about 29 trillion, which was the result of greatly emphasizing the bonuses for the alliance’s military exploits and achievements, and giving full combat allowances. The military department did not agree with this part.
The first version calculated by the military department was only 21 trillion.
The two sides argued a lot, and Gallardo even personally went to Gu Hang and smiled bitterly and told Gu Hang not to go too far, 29 trillion was absolutely impossible.
No matter how much he stood on the side of the alliance, this number was too exaggerated, so exaggerated that he could not agree to it at all.
As long as he dared to nod, he would immediately be the prime minister of the military department.
But even so, Gallardo was urgently called over by Qi Bodu and scolded, saying that 21 trillion was not acceptable, and this was still a price that the empire could not afford.
Gallardo, who was covered in dust, could only come back to discuss with Gu Hang.
Gu Hang said something to Gallardo and blocked Gallardo:
“Let’s not talk about this issue directly. You should also understand that I can neither give up the benefits won by the alliance nor do I want you to be caught in the middle. I don’t want this matter to affect our relationship. Since the prime minister insists on you to talk, then discuss it with the officials of the alliance.”
Gallardo also recognized this truth, and he would not look for Gu Hang in the future. Even if he did, he would not talk about this issue, but talk about other things.
With the military officials racking their brains to figure out the calculation method and Prime Minister Qi Bo Du personally paying attention, the final amount agreed upon was only 16 trillion.
To be honest, the empire did not want to pay this money.
But it had to pay.
The political convention was here. It was easy to default on the alliance, but what about other universes and star regions? In the future, when the empire recruits other local armies to cross the universe to participate in the war, those local armies will have to think twice.
If they fight too well or sacrifice too much, will the central government of the empire default on their debts?
In comparison, the loss of this reputation is very large, and it will even directly affect the orthodoxy and legitimacy of the central government of the empire.
In the end, the result of the discussion is that the alliance will pay the imperial tax for the first period, that is, the first two years.
In the second period, that is, the third and fourth years, a total of 1.7 trillion taxes will only need to be paid 1 trillion.
From then on, the alliance will only need to pay 1 trillion tax coins of materials every two years as imperial taxes. The remaining part will be deducted as war expenses paid by the central government of the empire.
Until the 16 trillion war expenses are fully deducted, the alliance will resume the normal imperial tax amount.
Adding it all up, it can be deducted for almost 15 years!
This means that in almost 15 years, the alliance only needs to pay 500 billion tax coins every year.
The help brought to the alliance in this way is definitely not as high as giving the 16 trillion directly to the alliance and then paying taxes normally.
After all, if the alliance has 16 trillion in cash directly on hand, there will be a lot of things it can do. Leave some to pay taxes, and the rest can be invested in investment. In this way, the development speed of the alliance will be significantly enhanced.
But it is good to be able to strive for such a result.
After all, later, Qi Bodu even personally went to the scene, repeatedly called Gu Hang over, personally exerted pressure, and even did not hesitate to show the posture of turning against him.
Gu Hang had no choice but to agree.
In general, within fifteen years, before the 16 trillion war expenditure is deducted, the tax pressure of the alliance will be greatly reduced.
As the prime minister of the alliance, Ossena grew several more hairs after hearing the news.
It was really a big relief.

After inspecting Lingze Star, confirming that the first phase of the alliance’s tax work was progressing smoothly, and confirming that Lingze Star’s key project, that is, the construction of the tax port, was advancing as expected and could be completed on time and with quality, Gu Hang did not stay in Lingze Star for long, but continued his journey.
His ultimate goal is to return to the Dragon Eagle Star Region, where he started.
The capital of the alliance is still the Angry Owl Star, and the Dragon Eagle Star Region is still the core area of the alliance.
Before, someone actually proposed whether to move the alliance’s ruling center to the north?
After all, the alliance’s ruling area has now expanded to the entire Spider Web Universe. Gu Hang’s highest status is also the high-ranking chairmanship brought by the chairman of the Spider Web Universe.
It is indeed not appropriate to place the alliance’s central government in the Dragon Eagle Star Region. Among the fourteen star regions actually controlled by the alliance, the Dragon Eagle Star Region is located in the southernmost. It is far away from the Spider Web Universe, especially the north of the Universe, which is not conducive to governance.
However, Gu Hang still rejected the relevant ideas.
First of all, the Dragon Eagle Star Region is the base camp of the alliance for decades. Most of the construction resources that Gu Hang has invested, whether it is funds or gift points, are concentrated here. The productivity of one place in the Dragon Eagle Star Region is almost comparable to the other thirteen combined.
Of course, this will change in the years to come as the vitality of the Spider Web Universe gradually recovers.
Moving is not so appropriate.
In addition, who said that the Dragon Eagle Universe is not suitable to be the core?
Gu Hang’s eyes always look outward.
The spider web universe in the bowl has not been eaten up yet, and he is already looking at the things in the pot.
In that pot, the fragrant food is the Eastern Universe.
