I'm Really Going to Become an Immortal Chapter 664 - 385 Chaos · Philosopher King2

The Human Federation, which has prepared nurous craftsn, is now just waiting for the King’s word to begin work as soon as possible.

To this,

Chen Yun had no interest in making things difficult for the contractors.

Because he actually had no particular requirents for the palace either.

Whatever works is fine.

So, after taking a glance,

Chen Yun decided to build palaces at seventy-two locations, all constructed according to local culture and style.

As for the specific scale and cost, there’s no need to exaggerate, as Chen Yun directly cut the extravagant budget of ten billion King’s Coins for each palace in half.

Converting the King’s Coins into the temporarily recognized and circulated US Dollar during this transitional period, ten billion King’s Coins would be about one billion US Dollars.

The palace does not actually need to be so extravagant.

However, for a palace intended for long-term residence, Chen Yun’s plan was to make it sowhat stunning.

To be honest, he did not plan to let those ordinary craftsn on Earth participate in the construction.

Because Chen Yun intended to build the palace on the Moon.

Though the na Fuyao is taken from "Riding the wind, ascend to ninety thousand miles," there’s no rule saying it can’t an "Riding the wind, ascend to 384,400 kiloters"?

Breaking through the average Earth-Moon distance of 384,400 kiloters to build a palace high above, on the Moon.

This is the true Fuyao Palace.

This truly gives a taste of the God of Mankind.

From now on,

The King stands above the nine heavens, overseeing his mankind.

So, with this in mind, Chen Yun rejected all proposals sent by the Do Council regarding the construction of Fuyao Palace, assigning them to only build the various palaces on Earth.

Of course, with regards to the purely design aspect proposals of Fuyao Palace, Chen Yun still took a good look at many of them.

These designs and styles were quite to his liking.

Therefore, he decided to directly have these designers quickly collaborate with scientists to co up with a new version of the design plan more suitable for the lunar environnt.

When the design plan is completed,

Chen Yun can then directly transport sufficient materials to the Moon and use the Spiritual Position to perform the construction of skyscrapers from the ground up.

Yes.

This brings up one point that cannot go unntioned.

Chen Yun’s teleportation ability can carry non-living matter, as long as the items are wrapped by Chen Yun’s Spiritual Position.

So there is no situation where he is left without clothes after teleportation.

With this ability,

Chen Yun becos an invincible Earth-Moon logistics service.

Having fantasized for a mont, Chen Yun looked at the second proposal that required his decision.

"Taxation Policy Adjustnt: Proposal for Wang En’s Tax and its Details!"

At first glance, it seed like nothing.

It seed like a new tax policy adjustnt that doesn’t require the King’s involvent.

For new taxation policies applicable to the Human Federation, naturally, a bunch of professionals would handle it.

But at this mont, this one was different.

Because this so-called Wang En’s Tax was very special.

[Wang En’s Tax: To praise and thank the King for his grace and dedication to all humanity, every citizen of the Human Federation must annually pay Wang En’s Tax starting from January 1st of the King’s Calendar in the year after they turn eighteen.]

[Tax Rate: Citizens with an annual inco below 100,000 Federation Coins, taxed at 5‰; between 100,000 and 500,000 Federation Coins, taxed at 2%; above 500,000 Federation Coins, taxed at 5%.]

[Exemption Policies: Individuals earning less than 50,000 Federation Coins annually can apply for a reduction to one Yuan. Citizens with valid disability proof can apply for 20%-90% tax reduction. Full-ti students in school after turning eighteen can apply for 30%-50% reduction. Citizens over 65 years of age can apply for a reduction to one Yuan. Those who make significant contributions to society (such as scientists, doctors, teachers, etc.), upon review, can receive 50%-90% reduction...]

...

After taking a closer look, Chen Yun imdiately experienced a strong sense of déjà vu.

The related rules were extensive, and Chen Yun imdiately noticed one particularly glaring point:

[Therefore, all Wang En’s Tax is for the King personally!]

No other explanation was given.

It clearly stated that these taxes belong to the King personally.

Unlike other taxes promised to be used for various aspects of public infrastructure, these are ant for the King’s personal use at will.

It is a voluntary offering of loyalty and respect from the subjects.

Of course.

It’s not saying the King can only use these.

As everyone knows, the King naturally does whatever he wants.

Whether he receives the money or not is irrelevant.

All ard forces are directly commanded by the King, and moving troops of a certain scale requires the King’s approval.

This alone establishes the King’s position.

Let alone the King’s invincible power.

The entire Human Federation is basically a monologue of the King.

It’s just that the King usually doesn’t enjoy handling affairs.

Therefore, this money actually only serves to show that the King does not use supre power in public, and is willing to operate within certain regulatory permissions, maneuvering resources without affecting the normal operation of the market and various sectors.

Of course, if scrutinized in depth,

isn’t this just a breathing tax?

Or to be precise, isn’t this like the Heavenly Gold tributes to the world nobles in One Piece?

These days, Chen Yun had whimsically thought about this matter.

Unexpectedly, what he had denied in his heart, his officials directly proposed.

As long as one is alive, they generally have to pay tax every year.

This indeed is an obligatory tax for all citizens of the Human Federation, which would definitely beco a horrifying astronomical number.

If each person pays just one Yuan, it would already be eight billion annually, not to ntion that it absolutely isn’t just a matter of each person paying one Yuan.

There are not many who can reduce it to one Yuan as a symbolic gesture of respect for the King, most people will still pay a percentage of their inco.

Even many of the current and future wealthy would not dare, as in the past, try to legally or illegally evade the tax.

After all, the significance of Wang En’s Tax implies that those who intentionally underpay or try to evade will be severely punished.

The wealthy will not dare to evade tax, and they will pay a large amount according to the percentage.

In short, all Wang En’s Tax combined.

Will inevitably be an astronomical figure.

But, as always, however large the numbers are, they are rely numbers.

At least, for Chen Yun, this is indeed the case.

He truly could regard money as nothing more than a series of numbers.

Therefore, he directly made so modifications to this proposal.

With a grand gesture.

He diverted more than half of the astronomical Wang En’s Tax to various infrastructure developnts and public welfare subsidies.

The reason he left so is not for himself.

He is indifferent to it, but mainly to allow so reasonable enjoynt for his relatives and friends.

The saying goes.

When one person gains the privilege, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

This is essentially an inevitable process, and he is not entirely alone.

Then besides that, it is also about offering more Wang En’s Tax relief policies for those with insufficient abilities, so that Wang En’s Tax itself does not beco a burden on middle to lower class citizens.

Throughout this decision-making process, he naturally didn’t feel any pain.

Because he has already transcended the monetary system itself, becoming the first truly supre ruler in the history of mankind with his overwhelming personal force.

Money, to him, naturally holds no aning.

He could really stand at the highest level and ponder over how to ensure humanity itself prospers from a perspective untainted by any interests.

The Human Federation itself,

is now, to him, like a simulation managent ga.

In so sense,

he has beco akin to a philosopher-king who does not consider personal interests, caring only about the entire humanity’s interest.

Just like a player in P-series gas,

not caring about personal enjoynt, only caring about the state, pursuing the optimal solution under the current version.

But the issue is,

Chen Yun himself sowhat resembles an incomplete form of a philosopher-king, like a P-series player.

If a P-series player governs, one might even have to worry about him dropping a nuke on his own capital.

After all, the fourth apocalypse does not abide by logic.

Not considering one’s own interest has to be viewed from two sides; positively, one can beco a philosopher-king who puts all effort into strengthening the nation.

But negatively, a nation’s demise wouldn’t affect oneself, leading to whimsical ssing around.

In this way,

Chen Yun, this philosopher-king, perhaps could be prefixed with Chaos.

Temporarily call it:

Chaos Philosopher-King!
