Shen Xing chuckled and said, "What the young master did, in Shen Xing's opinion, is a big deal!"
Liu Zheng asked curiously: "Why is Shen Xing so flattering after not seeing each other for a few days?"
The two looked at each other and laughed.
While riding the horse, Liu Zheng asked Shen Xing: "Now that the Yinzhou Chamber of Commerce is gradually stabilizing, does Shen Xing think that the agricultural tax can be paid?"
Shen Xing cheered up. He was the chief historian and he knew the accounts very clearly. He thought about it carefully and said, "After my calculation, it just balances! Young Master, the most important thing in the world's plan is agricultural tax. This has nothing to do with harvest, but In the hearts of the people!"
Liu Zheng laughed loudly, he knew what Shen Xing meant. This agricultural tax is not only the government's largest source of revenue, but the key is to control the people's hearts. This is what I said before, an empire of two taels of silver!
Since ancient times, no one has dared to really liberalize agricultural taxes. They are just worried that these farmers will be exhausted and have nothing to do, so they will give you some moths.
Liu Zheng, however, disagreed and said calmly: "If the world is unified, the territory is prosperous, and the people's hearts are uplifting and have higher goals, why should we fear that the people's hearts will be unstable?"
"We must remember that poverty should not be a good medicine for governance. But sorrow can make people progress. However, people do not suffer from poverty, but from inequality!"
Shen Xing was shocked when he heard this, and his eyes were horrified.
The world is unified?
How have people of this era ever heard of such a term? Innate imperial power, one person is respected, and the people who control the world are not the king's land; the people who lead the land are the king's ministers. This kind of thinking is deeply rooted, how can it be overthrown at will?
and......
It was really hard for him to imagine that his young master really didn't like that privilege and the feeling of dominating the world?
This is probably a person who wouldn't refuse, right?
When he really started to take charge of a territory, what he considered was the unity of the world?
Shocking!
Once again, he refreshed his view of Liu Zheng.
Liu Zheng's point of view confused Shen Xing for a long time, and he couldn't react for a moment.
Liu Zheng didn't explain much, laughed loudly, and rode to Yinzhou, the real Silver Beach... That vast white salt lake and white sandy beach made Liu Zheng's eyes gleam. It’s all money!
"Master, Shen Xing understands!"
At this moment, Shen Xing was shocked and took a breath.
Liu Zheng looked at him with a smile: "Do you really understand?"
Shen Xing dismounted his horse and bowed his head: "Master, Shen Xing really understands! If we want to stabilize Yin Yang, we must give the people a better life and let them see better things and a more harmonious world. In this way, Who can contend with what the people want?"
Liu Zheng nodded: "Shen Xing..."
"My subordinate is here!"
"Are you interested in taking a job in Yangzhou?"
Shen Xing was shocked and immediately overjoyed: "I accept the order!"
Yangzhou Prefecture still needs a parent official. Although Liu Zheng cannot give Shen Xing the position of county candidate, he can still give him the position of county magistrate. These days, Liu Zheng has been thinking about who is more suitable to manage Yangzhou?
Since Shen Xing has become enlightened today, he is the best candidate.
only......
Liu Zheng sighed deeply: "As soon as Shen Xing leaves, there won't be anyone around me anymore."
Thinking of the process of how the two met and got to know each other, Shen Xing's eyes were red. Suddenly he seemed to remember something, his face changed slightly, and he took out a few pieces of paper from his pocket: "Sir, Shen Xing remembered something. I have been too busy recently. Forgot to report, look!"
