As the butler has been a long time, although he has become more and more stingy, his vision is indeed getting higher and higher. He has begun to break out of some rules and regulations, and predict the development trend of the next five to ten years from big data.

Even if you advocate taking the money for peace, as long as the probability reaches more than 70%, you will be sure to bet.

Of course, Xun Yu's 70% confidence is probably 10% sure for many people. After all, when people make plans or goals, they will inevitably have some confidence, leading to misjudgment.

There is a probability of ten percent, of which the fault tolerance rate is about 1% to 30%. Therefore, it is often said that after formulating a plan, a remedial plan must be formulated.

In Xun Yu's eyes, the railway plan already has an earnings of 80% and can digest excess labor.

The proportion of agricultural population these days is relatively large, which means that during the slack season, there are often two or three months every year, and a large number of people will come out to work as small workers to earn some money and subsidize their household income.

As the Minister of Revenue, every year, I see so many labor forces that cannot be well allocated, and I feel that I have lost several hundred million.

This is when the new Han Dynasty was changed, there was a period of labor service. How could you have time to earn extra money? Not only did you have to perform labor service, but you also had to bring your own dry food.

If it is a project that is farther and bigger, it is possible to die of exhaustion in corvee service. After returning from corvee service, you have to start rushing to harvest crops. If the tenant farmers have to pay land rent and taxes...

Now the Han Dynasty stipulates that local labor service must be paid from fiscal revenue and food must be managed. Officials embezzled for personal use will be punished. However, if there is a repaired place and the repair is not done well, the officials will also be punished.

So naturally, some small county magistrates began to complain that it was becoming increasingly difficult to be a great official in the Han Dynasty.

Of course, these are not what Xun Yu needs to worry about. If you don’t want to become an official, you can change to another group of people. There is nothing to say about nonsense.

The only thing I dissatisfied with is that the cost of iron smelting is too high. If the railway is laid in large quantities, the expenses are not a small amount. Any policy and supporting technology are the key, and it cannot be done by just slapping your head.

"Take it slow, we have a lot of time." Liu Tao said casually. It should be said that it is too abundant. There are a lot of messes in the entire Central Plains that need to be managed.

Not to mention that the funds in the past two years have actually been focused on water conservancy construction, mainly targeting Yanzhou and Yuzhou.

There is plenty of time, but the technology, capital, and even the population are not sufficient. Liu Tao does not intend to do military affairs. The standard for governing the country is based on big data. For this purpose, the statistics department was established, although there were similar departments in the past.

"Shangshu Xun..." After leaving the side hall, Su Shuang found Xun Yu, "In fact, many people, including the officials, don't quite understand why they didn't directly recruit corvee labor like before..."

"This..." Xun Yu was not surprised when he heard this. In fact, many officials complained that they needed money everywhere, as if they could never save money in the treasury. "Indeed, the biggest problem for each ministry now is how to spend every penny."

After all, the treasury has little money, so every penny must be used in place. The Jinyiwei and the Ministry of Revenue are both watching closely, so the most pleasant thing about spending money suddenly becomes painful.

"Your Majesty is hiding wealth from the people. Compared with the situation in Shanxi Province, you will find that the private consumption there has been improved. In order to change the future, some young people have been buying books and learning." Xun Yu explained briefly.

After all, if you have spare money, should you save it and marry a wife or use it to change the future. It doesn’t matter to the elderly, but who would like to cultivate land for the rest of your life for young people? Especially many people have been admitted to the imperial examination and become officials, why do they still need to cultivate land?

With role models, naturally, many people go to study and study. No matter how bad they are, they have to exercise their bodies well and then join the army.

Bingzhou, the latter said that Shanxi Province is now in the Longxing land of Liu Tao. The people here are used to it, either by literature or by martial arts. No matter which one, with the current situation of the Han Dynasty, they can have a good future.

As long as you are a scholar, you have to study, so the cultural industry develops very rapidly; to join the army, you have to be physically strong, so the breeding industry and the grain industry have developed greatly. Finally, I became an official and participated in some literary clubs, so the entertainment industry also began to develop.

With money in these industries, they will naturally expand their industries, so various expenses will increase, and eventually become tax returns to the court. What Xun Yu is doing now is to tell Su Shuang about the fiscal expenditure situation in the past five years, taking Jinyang as an example.

"From the current results, Jinyang's finances are constantly improving every year and are far from reaching its peak. Local governments use new taxes to recruit people to work during the slack season, which not only improves efficiency compared to before, but also makes money. Considering the loose policies, many people will only save a small part of the emergency, and most of them will use it to improve their lives." Xun Yu explained.

As a result, business was further improved, and fiscal revenue was also further improved.

Before, I was in labor service, and not only did I say that I had to prepare my own food, but the people had no energy to work and were spending time every day without working seriously. Beating and scolding too hard will also cause hatred for the government and are easily exploited by villains.

"Simply put, this arrangement will not only make the people more stable, but also have a stronger sense of belonging to the court. The quality of life of local people is indeed constantly improving, and the places to be built can also be completed on time and in quality. The most important thing is that local finances are also improving, and the employment costs are deducted, and the surplus is increasing." Xun Yu concluded.

All officials once advocated "hiding wealth among the people", but this "people" was obviously just an excuse, and in fact, it was to let local tyrants and aristocratic families monopolize this interest; in the end, the people did not get benefits, and the court would still take the blame.

The series of policies that Liu Tao has implemented now are truly rich in the people. The court receives taxes and the people benefit, and the wealthy families have no losses. If you really want to say that there are any losses, you will lose the power to monopolize prices.

After all, there is a big business here. As long as the profit is good, they don’t sell it. Other places will transport grains, let alone warehouses.

It really forced Liu Tao to be dissatisfied and directly ordered that all grain produced by the people would be purchased by warehouses in a normal manner. At that time, those gentry who wanted to guard one acre of land and farm and study and pass on their families would probably start to think about how to operate and make money.

Don’t say that farming and reading are passed down from generation to generation. Those who say this in history are not the ones who farm.

There are a lot of tenants at home, helping them farm, and the grain they grow will be purchased at a low price, otherwise they will not be sold at all. Now the grain production is low, so it’s okay to say that after the change, you have to rent money and land, how can you pay if you don’t sell the grain?

For Liu Tao, the grain output must first be increased so that everyone can’t finish it. Then it will either be exported or processed. Otherwise, the grain fields will be converted into vegetable fields and tea fields.

It would be fine if you don’t farm. Most of them are tenants. Only with more proletariats can industry be developed. Otherwise, they will do odd jobs during the slack farming period, which is not enough! Without enough workers, industrial technology will not be able to be carried out at all!

This is what Liu Tao urgently hopes to change.
