Chapter 307 If (2)
You know the dangers of the imperial village. I will not tell you.
Zhu Yunxiu smiled at the ministers on the throne. Yesterday, Gu had just returned to Beijing and told the emperor about this matter. Gu said to the emperor that Fengyang is not only Fengyang of the Zhu family, but also Fengyang of the people of Fengyang!
The ministers were a little surprised and then bowed down together, Your Highness benevolent!
I will just make it clear in front of you! The fields, livestock outputs, etc. of the imperial village are left with a small part, which can be used as expenses for the imperial tombs and imperial cities. The rest must be collected first and then divided into fields according to Ding!
However, starting from this autumn tax, the people of Fengyang no longer have to pay tax on duty, but a unified land tax. Whether it is self-cultivated farmers, medium-sized households, or large households, they all pay taxes according to the land acres. The amount of land they have at home will pay as much imperial grain as their families have!
Suddenly, the ministers were filled with discomfort.
Ding tax means Ding silver, which is to be bluntly the head tax. In history, government officials have counted the population, and ordinary people have to pay Ding tax, mainly male people. If the government is peaceful and peaceful during the Taiping period, the people with land can still afford it. But once the war is in chaos, the year is not good. Because the people want to evade taxes, they have to protect the temples and be under the great officials and gentry.
The privileged classes such as officials, gentry, temples, etc. are unhappy with these obedient and free labor forces.
The officials of the court knew all the tricks about this, but no one mentioned them for thousands of years. First, the officials were originally privileged classes, and second, since the tax laws of the Song Dynasty, the D tax was collected by local governments and did not really belong to the central government's finances.
The demographic statistics of all dynasties have been a confusing account, and there is only one false general account reported by the central government.
The existence of the tax on the tax also accelerated land annexation faster. The rich had a lot of land and a lot of land, while the poor had no place to stand, but they had more corvee labor.
Furthermore, this kind of taxation has never become one of the main sources of finance in the country. In addition to the deliberate obstruction of local officials and gentry classes, there is another point that the country is very tired because it cannot accurately count the population, so it can only focus on the poor peasants.
This is a tax that is least efficient, the most unfair, and the most likely to lead to social unrest!
Among the ministers, Fu Youwen, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, said, "If you do not collect taxes for taxes and instead collect taxes for land, what should people without land?"
If there is no land, there is no need to pay taxes! Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, if the tax is cancelled in Fengyang, then the hidden population will emerge. Anyway, there is no need to pay taxes. Who would be willing to hide in the families of big officials and gentry as a cattle?
Those who are assigned to the fields will farm, and those who have no land can make a living at will. They either work, do business, or work for craftsmen. People always have to live, and they have to earn money and food when they live. Only when there are more people working can the economy develop rapidly!
The most important thing about abolishing the C tax is to liberate the labor force.
There is only so much land in the world, and the population is not a fixed number. For example, for a large number of urban population, they save money without paying tax on duty. The rural population has no tax on duty, and they will lose the heavy burden and no longer have to be bound to the land.
In this way, the population will inevitably grow explosively, and will emerge from the wealthy families of officials and gentry, and eventually be implemented in the household registration book. With more labor, more value can be created.
In this case, I am afraid... Fu Youwen is a little embarrassed and said intermittently.
What are you afraid of? The officials and gentry who are afraid of being criticized by many land? Zhu Yunqi immediately curled his smile and said, "Is it a good thing to call the officials who hide their population a cry?"
Since it is a good thing that benefits the people, why ask them whether they surrender? Is this the world their leader?
If they were taken into account, the court would not know how many people there were in the world, and the people would be happy to avoid Dingshi and sell themselves as slaves?
After a few words, the hall was silent.
Officials and gentry are the pillars of the country, and gentry are the foundation of the local area. This has been the argument since ancient times. In fact, if the people cannot pay taxes, they will not be allowed to be the people.
I also think this is a virtue! Hanlin scholar Fang Xiaoru suddenly said that since the Han Dynasty implemented the tax on the rank of the tax, the tax was divided into four levels. The rich, middle-aged, lower-ranked, and poor people have different pays. But since ancient times, I was afraid that the tax on the tax on the tax on the tax on the tax on the tax on the tax on the tax on the tax on the tax on the tax on the tax on the tax on the tax on the tax on the tax on the tax on the country is beneficial to the population and to the people.........
As he said, Fang Xiaoru performed etiquette and taxation, if one point increases, the people will suffer a little; if one point is reduced, the people will benefit one point. To lenient government morality, consolidate the foundation of the country, benefit the people, and the country will be stable!
Mr. Fang said this great kindness! Zhu Yunxi smiled.
Why don’t this virtue and politics promote the world? Fang Xiaoru asked.
As soon as I praised it, I immediately started to be a leader. If I cannot secretly find a pilot project for this kind of important matter, I will directly promote it in the world. I am afraid that good things will turn into bad things. Many of the things in China are bad in the local areas, and I deliberately recite the scriptures wrongly.
In Zhu Yunyu's mind, Fengyang is the first pilot, because Fengyang is in the inland and cannot cause any trouble. The second pilot is Zhejiang, the main production area of cotton cloth in the world. Once the labor force is liberated, Zhejiang's handicrafts, manufacturing and commerce will develop rapidly.
Fengyang is Zhongdu, after all, it is different from other places! Zhu Yunxiu was sloppy and then said, once Fengyang is given land according to Ding, your Ministry of Revenue must make the account details and check the land level population, and the land and population of Fengyang must be clear!
As he said that, he pretended to sigh, but the imperial village is so good, and the honor fields are hard to move?
The topic turned to the land of the nobles.
I think there is nothing difficult to move. This time, there is a time, and at the beginning of the country, the fiefs of nobles and military generals were to reward merits. Now, the plan is to collect land for the people, to the country! Ling Han, the Minister of Personnel, spoke up. Besides, the imperial village has moved, what are they?
After the words came, the ministers nodded one after another.
For them, any chance to open fire on the noble group is a once-in-a-lifetime good thing.
Moreover, the fire was opened this time to seek welfare for the people and be justified.
That's not to say, those fields are all their contributions. Although they have to share with the people, they can't lose them! Zhu Yunxiu continued, in fact, if the people of Fengyang had no land to plant, they would never have wanted their land.
In this way, how should you use words? After you retire from the court, Zhu Yunxiu thought about it, not only to benefit the people, but also to take into account the dignity of the heroes!
Then the monarch and ministers talked about some government affairs, and the court would disperse in an hour.
The ministers whispered in groups of three or three, talking about how to submit the report tomorrow, and talking about the imperial village’s noble land.
In the opinion of Mr. Liu, the minister, the layup of His Highness is definitely not as simple as Fengyang’s implementation! On the way out of the palace, Fang Xiaoru said to Liu Sanwu.
The latter smiled slightly, and it was natural. This highness was what I watched as growing up. He was not a whim!
Things are good things, but they will definitely be full of difficulties! Fang Xiaoru said worriedly, maybe the world is in full swing!
How could Your Majesty and Your Highness be afraid of these violent attacks? Liu Sanwu smiled and said, in the past, you and I had hoped that Your Highness would be a wise king. But now it seems that Your Highness will only be afraid that his name is wise, and he will not be able to get along with him in the future!
Yes, sometimes when His Highness has a cold face, he looks like His Majesty! Fang Xiaoru also smiles. For the king, the appearance of the king is a bit harsh to the world!
Be careful! Liu Sanwu said, hey, if what Your Highness said is that it is really harsh to promote the world!
Isn’t it true that the harsh officials and gentry are lenient to the people? Is it true that Meng Sheng’s words, the people are the most important? Fang Xiaoru said, “If it really is the day when the world is promoted, Fang is willing to take off this noble job and inspect the censor for this virtue and politics!
Liu Sanwu didn’t understand, you don’t know the local affairs, so why bother to wade into the muddy waters?
Fang Xiaoru smiled and said, "The lower-ranking official, he's so stupid!"
~~~
The reason why I told these ministers that the matter of spreading the ditches was to give them a signal first. Then from their performance, we can see who can really use it and who can't help.
After meeting the court officials, the tycoon came in with a thick stack of memorials and placed them on the imperial desk.
Zhu Yunxiu asked while writing a letter to the emperor and asked, "Is Duke Cao here?"
Here we are, waiting outside!
pass!
A moment later, Li Jinglong met.
minister...........
There is no need to be too polite. You sit down first, and talk to you alone. It is a good thing to ask you to come. If there is something that can only be trusted by others, you can only let you......... As he said that, when Zhu Yunyu looked up, he suddenly paused. What's wrong with you?
Li Jinglong lowered his head and sat on the round stool ashamed. His handsome face was blue, and he seemed to have been beaten.
Why are you, your eyes are blue?
