Chapter 454 Good Government

After a long time, the talented man from Nanda pondered and said, "This is a good governance, but there are many inappropriate things."

How dare all the officials interfere? Do you think about this good policy? How can the emperor, the six ministries and important officials in the cabinet handle themselves, how can the world think about and do it, and how can they view the intentions of the three departments of Taiwan?

Ma Cheng's expression remained unchanged and said magnificently: "The sage said, "Who is the best for the people, and who is the best for the people??"

The governors' yamen officials were speechless when they heard this. Ma Cheng sneered in his heart. This was the original words of the Donglin Party's verbal attack on the late emperor. Now I have copied it word by word and given to all the humble gentlemen in the court.

It's just retribution. I want to see how the Donglin officials in the court can distinguish themselves. Nan Juyi was a little angry and embarrassed. He was putting him on the fire. The court still discussed it in the court and wanted to increase the agricultural tax.

The increase in agricultural taxes and the levy of Liao funds was actually done by the Donglin Party and Wen Tiren.

The court was discussing the increase of agricultural taxes and the collection of Liao salaries. The Taiwan Governor's Office made a food protection price. At that time, the world would be cursed, and the Wen Party and the Donglin Party would not be able to escape. Isn't this against the center?

After a long time, Nan Juyi gritted his teeth and said, "But, let's get the rules."

Some of the dozens of officials in the next chapter could not help but feel ashamed: "We are ashamed to read the books of sages."

After a word was made, all the adults were full of passion. Loving the people and governing the country was the core of the saint's thoughts. The saint advocated the prosperity of the country and the strong people, but who could have read the books of sages and sages to truly do it? It was not as good as a military person.

The warrior can see and do it clearly, can he not be ashamed? If this good governance can be implemented, it will be a true good governance that has been remembered forever, and has never been done before.

The fourth year of Chongzhen, the first month.

The Taiwan Governor's Office became busy, and the subordinates began to calculate the costs required for the food protection price policy.

To be good at governance, you also need to pay what the governor’s yamen can pay.

The food protection policy proposed by Macheng is not only price protection, but also includes a series of preferential policies, such as establishing an agricultural department to provide technical support to grain-growing farmers, providing seed oxen, and the government sets a minimum purchase price.

In this way, the most impacted are grain merchants and profiteers, which effectively prevent the profiteers from hurting farmers. How much is the lowest protection price to profiteers? God knows, because the minimum purchase price is set by the government, not by

Grain agreed.

The government holds the pricing power in its hands and takes advantage of the profiteering business, which is another big weapon of killing.

The Ming Dynasty was not a legal society in later generations, and there were loopholes in the law. Will the government that mastered the pricing power reason with you? It is impossible. The government set a minimum purchase price. If the price you offer is lower, the people will

If you sell grain to the government, you can only collect grain higher than the government’s price. What? Do you dare to raise the price of grain? Try to see if the government’s knife is not good. Yi Nan Juyi’s temperament will probably be cut off with one knife.

Pricing rights are good things. Ma Cheng was proud and slowly pushed open a door in front of Nanjuyi and Taiwanese officials.

This is the late Ming Dynasty or the late Ming Dynasty in the fourth year of Chongzhen. Who is the right to price grain? The prodigal businessman. Ma Cheng firmly believes that what free pricing power should be used in the Ming Dynasty? The free pricing power will only lead to the prodigal businessman.

In the future, especially when it comes to life-saving food, there should not be too many unscrupulous merchants who make money from the national crisis. If you take back the pricing power, you will sooner or later like a price bureau. In times of chaos, it is important that the government controls the pricing power of grain.

.

Ma Cheng is not an economist, nor does he understand what impact the government will have on the Ming Dynasty if it revokes pricing power. He just takes advantage of the situation and uses the knowledge of later generations to influence this era. As for what problems will arise, it is the Governor's Office.

The difficulties that employees should consider, have been in the top position for a long time, and Ma Cheng has long understood the best way. He must not ask about everything personally. He handed over professional matters to experts. The superiors only need to take advantage of the situation and do these four words.

Enough.

What Macheng can confirm is that this dispute over pricing power will inevitably shake the world and attract a rebound from the gentry class.

But I don’t care, what can the rebound of public opinion? Can I stop the heavy cavalry? One day, I will be in the world and I will deal with the gang of Jiangnan’s tyrants sooner or later.

How did the Qing people deal with the unscrupulous merchants in Jiangnan? Three slaughterings in Jiading in ten days in Yangzhou.

When the Ming Dynasty collected commercial taxes, the people in Jiangnan did not want to pay, and they delayed again and again, resulting in the demise of the Ming Dynasty.

Later, people in Jiangnan thought that Qing would definitely be as easy to talk to as Ming, even better than Ming, so when Qing came, Jiangnan people were very happy, thinking that the Ming Dynasty, which was collecting taxes, had an unpaid tax, and a man came. Unfortunately, after Qing came,

It is even more straitier than a bald-tailed dog and crueler than a wolf, but it is not as easy to talk like Ming.

I imagine that I would delay the return of the year as Ming did, and I would drag it out to chop it.

I imagine going to the streets to demonstrate like Ming, dragging it out and chopping it.

I want to discuss it privately and beheaded in jail.

I thought Qing was like Ming, and the emperor didn't pay taxes, just scolded him, but was angry but wouldn't take ruthless actions.

Qing doesn’t care about these things, and if you don’t obey, you will kill them until you are obedient.

How to collect taxes? Among the historical knowledge of Macheng, Zhang Juzheng's one-whip method is excellent. The Qing Dynasty's previous life's stalls were just a perfect whip method. Zhang Juzheng is a powerful man.

I once saw an article on the omnipotent Reader's Digest, saying that in the early Qing Dynasty, it completely followed the one-whip method of collecting land taxes during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty's whip method was to spread some of the silver on land and acres, but it was not thorough and had many disadvantages.

The Qing Dynasty completely improved the One Whip Law, adopted the method of fixed the total collection of national Dian silver, and canceled the double standard of taxation based on Dian and local governments, making the collection content, collection procedures and collection methods easier, and the tax burden is reduced, and effectively restricted.

Corrupt officials and local tyrants and evil gentry transferred the taxes, harshly stripped the people, and fed the private pockets. Later, they distributed silver to the land to collect them, completed the reform of taxes and labor to integrate taxes and labor, and promoted agricultural production.

Tax sources have been cultivated, national tax revenue has increased significantly, and fiscal conditions have improved significantly.

The commercial taxes in the Qing Dynasty included salt tax, customs tax, tea tax, wine tax and duty tax, etc. The tax items were more than in previous dynasties, and the tax amount gradually increased. In the fifth year of Wanli, the annual tax revenue of the Ming Dynasty was 3.67 million yuan.

Two, 26 million stones of grain, and rice or wheat were not divided into crops. During the Yongzheng period, the annual tax revenue of land and silver was 30 million taels, and the salt tax was 5 million taels, and the grain revenue was more.

In general, during the Qing Dynasty, the monetary tax was increased by about ten times.

The Qing people had already given the answer to how to collect taxes, so they just did it. Ma Cheng couldn't help but show his white teeth. If he dared to resist taxes, he would be in prison. Just kill a few people with hard necks.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Hongmao City, Taiwan’s Zhenjun camp.

The newly married Zheng Zhilong was busy without touching the ground, counting and extracting a large number of weapons, preparing to wait until the spring is in full bloom, transport it to Shanhaiwei, and then transport it from Shanhaiwei to Tielingwei. The 100,000 new muskets were purchased from the Portuguese, and it was consumed.

The Portuguese made a lot of money for silver, but it also solved the problem of Kaiyuan Army's dress-up. Buying a gun is much easier than making a gun, provided that the Portuguese are willing to sell it.

This is Zheng Zhilong's ability, and he bribed the Portuguese Governor who was in Jingfu for a large sum of money.

Orders from the Ming Dynasty also made the Portuguese make a fortune, with orders of up to 1.6 million taels of silver, making the Portuguese crazy and even planned to build an arsenal in Jinghao. With the years of accumulation of Kaiyuan Ma family, one at a time was taken out.

One and a million taels of silver were also difficult, thanks to Nanjuyi's help.
