Chapter 746 Three hundred li fiefdom

It is of course a good thing to increase your income by more than one million yuan a year. But pies will not fall from the sky, and nothing is without a price.

Li Shimin thought about it carefully for a while and then thought of some key points.

First of all, if sexual service is abolished, many of the former powerful households will no longer have the opportunity to use sexual service to escape the taxes and miscellaneous labor service of the official service. These regular service are much higher than sexual service. This new household tax policy will obviously harm the interests of these powerful people.

For the officials, the treatment has not changed. It turned out that the court assigned them to escorts, etc., but now it has been changed to discounting them directly and asking them to hire them as needed.

"Don't ordinary people also need to add an extra tax?" Li Shimin came a little more.

It turned out that the children of those big and powerful families were used as sexual servants to evade official service. They paid less taxes, but the other teachers were not affected. Now, the court has added new household taxes and cancelled sexual servants. Although the powerful families can no longer evade official service by serving sexual servants, the ordinary people have to pay a new household tax after renting the official service. Even if the lowest-level one is only 500 yuan a year, this is also a new tax.

"It is true, but I think that as long as the court grants more land to the people, even if the household tax is increased, it is actually OK."

The core of the rent-in-law regime is to be based on the population. It is not taxed by households, but by taxes based on the population. It is based on adult males. Middle-aged men in their teens can also divide the land in Kuan Township, so they will also serve in advance. In general, the equal-land system is based on the same-land system, and the rent-in-law regime is also based on equal-land and deputies.

The land is also a tiny, and the land is also a tiny. Regardless of the land, the tax on the land is the same. Therefore, if the court can add some actual land to the people, even if a household tax is added, their burden may not be increased.

In a normal year, there is twenty coins for rice, two hundred coins per stone, and two and a half meter of five hundred coins, which requires two and a three-acre land output. If Yi Ding really has one hundred mulberry and hemp, even if some mulberry and hemp are planted, then the additional 500 coins of tax will not be too much.

However, Li Shimin didn't think that things would be so simple. Adding a new household tax would certainly increase the income of tens of millions of yuan a year, but it would offend the powerful landlords and the ordinary people. The powerful people could not use sexual intercourse to evade regular taxes and had to pay more taxes. The people added a household tax out of thin air, no matter how much it was, they would definitely be unhappy.

The new household tax offends both powerful landlords and ordinary people. Can it continue to be implemented?

In fact, Li Chao had a more radical tax law, which was the two tax law implemented in the middle Tang Dynasty.

The Two Tax Law is a new law after the collapse of the tax adjustment system of renting and mediocre taxation. The Two Tax Law is very important in Chinese history and is regarded as an epoch-making beginning of the tax law. This tax law has basically been used from the Middle Tang Dynasty to the fall of the Qing Dynasty.

The core of the two tax law is no longer based on population or equal land system, but based on household tax and local tax, which stipulates that households have no master or guest, and that residence is regarded as book. Neither the main household customers nor settlement or business, all residents will be levied and paid taxes in their place of residence.

The principle of collection is that there is no one among people, and the difference between the rich and the poor is the difference. The tax amount is determined based on the amount of land and assets. The previous rent and miscellaneous taxes were abolished. If there were fewer assets, there would be less taxes, and if there were more assets, there would be more taxes.

Theoretically, this tax system is of course much more reasonable than the per capita rental system, especially for those households with no land and little property.

Another feature of the two tax law implemented in the middle Tang Dynasty was that it changed the current old rules that officials did not accept classes, and changed it to an integrated official and gentry paying food.

The bureaucrats and powerful people can only do everything possible to evade taxes, and no longer be open and exempt from classes.

However, Li Chao felt that there was no basis for implementing the two tax laws now. The Tang Dynasty had not been unified for a long time, and the rent-injury regime had not yet exposed many loopholes. At this time, there was no environment for the rent-injury regime to abolish it.

The proposal of household tax is just to repair the current law.

Li Chao proposed to exempt sexual intercourse and promote household tax, and also implement local tax.

Local tax is the original charity warehouse grain. Now the imperial court will directly change this charity warehouse to a local tax to make it more regular, so as to strengthen local grain reserves and enhance disaster resistance.

The direct name of the charity grain to land tax, which is to change the matter that originally belongs to the people to store grain and prepare for wasteland into a strict tax law.

The renting and mediocre system stipulates that princes and nobles, rank officials, and unsettled merchants have certain exemptions. However, Li Chao is preparing to pay taxes and local taxes under the emperor, regardless of princes and nobles, and rank officials, all must pay taxes and local taxes. Merchants without land must also divide household taxes and local taxes according to their assets, etc.

"The land tax is two liters, and the tax amount is determined based on the land output, and the land tax grain will be paid as much as the land tax."

Finally, Li Chao added another sentence to Li Shimin, "No upper limit!"

"The grain of land tax cannot be collected by money, and the grain must not be opened until the time of famine is in danger." Li Chao added another sentence.

The charity warehouse was originally intended to provide disaster relief and storage of grain, so the purpose was very clear, and it was to prepare and prevent disasters. These grains were used for combat preparation and disaster relief and could not be used in normal times.

During this major disaster, the court suffered a great loss in the grain reserves, so everyone realized the importance of food.

Li Chao proposed to directly change the charity grain into land tax and include it in the court's tax system in order to increase the importance of these grains.

In history, during the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, grain reserves increased significantly, and once reached an extremely considerable number.

Historical records: In the eighth year of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, the world stored 96.06 million stones of grain and rice, of which 63.17 million stones of charity warehouses accounted for more than 65%. The financial status of land tax is becoming increasingly important. According to historical records, after the Tang Dynasty launched land tax, charity warehouses were used to provide relief to the poor 106 times, effectively maintaining social stability.

However, in the history of the Tang Dynasty, the land tax was once capped. Although it was collected on a mu, there was an upper limit of several stones. Generally speaking, one mu and two liters, and a hundred mu only had two stones. The upper limit of five stones is actually the upper limit of two hundred and fifty acres. If this number exceeds this, there is no need to pay land tax.

Li Chao plans to get it in one step without setting this upper limit.

The land tax will be paid as much as the land tax as there are. In fact, one acre and two liters are litres. The tax rate is very low. In the history of the Tang Dynasty, the land tax amount has been continuously promoted and several times increased.

Li Chao's family has thousands of hectares of land and hundreds of thousands of acres of land. If one acre and two liters of land tax and the upper limit is set, it will only pay five stones a year. Without the upper limit, it will be worth tens of thousands of stones to pay tens of thousands of stones to pay. This is the difference.

By the reign of Emperor Daizong of Tang Dynasty, land tax grain was no longer a special grain for disaster relief, but became common, and the grain was misappropriated in large quantities. Even the tax rate increased greatly and was levied in two batches of summer and autumn. The tax tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the high-rise tax of the

From the beginning of one acre and two liters, to the beginning of the year, it had been nearly one dou per acre, which had been several times more.

In the late Tianbao period, the land tax and grain reached more than 12 million stones a year.

If the imperial court now imposed land taxes, tens of millions of stones of land tax grain could be put into the warehouse a year to store and prepare for war and famine, then in just a few years, tens of millions of stones of grain would be included in the warehouse. If there is any famine, there would be no need to be so busy.

Li Shimin turned over and sat up, his eyes full of excitement.

A household tax increases its annual income by more than 10 million trumpens, and a land tax increases its annual income by more than 10 million shi of grain reserves.

These figures made Li Shimin extremely excited. But he also knew that levying household tax would offend powerful landlords, and even make ordinary people dissatisfied. If the original charity grain was changed to formal land tax and the upper limit of levying grain by a mu was also cancelled, the more he would offend those landlords and powerful landlords.

But the court's deficit was so big that it took money everywhere. Li Shimin really cared about this tax and tax.

"This matter needs to be discussed in the long term."

After thinking for a long time, Li Shimin finally spoke.

"Finish this battle with salt money first. When the battle is over, the disaster in the north will pass next year. Then the court will introduce tax reforms and introduce household tax and local taxes. Don't disclose the news now. Wen Yuan and I will think more about it and draw up a detailed plan."

Li Shimin clenched his fists and said solemnly to Li Chao.

At present, there are internal and external chaos. Tax reforms, especially the new tax law, will also affect the interests of landlords and powerful people, and this is not a suitable time.

Li Chao nodded to show that he understood.

He is very clear about these principles.

Implementing the new policy, especially reform, requires an increasingly stable environment. Only by using a strong emperor, a stable situation, and the monarch and ministers to unite their hearts, will reform be carried out. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to break the interest circle of existing interest groups.

However, Li Chao did not take those people seriously. As long as the court truly made up its mind to implement them, it could still be implemented. Local tax and household tax were all implemented in history in the early Tang Dynasty. In the middle Tang Dynasty, the two tax laws were directly introduced.

Although the wealthy gentry in the Tang Dynasty was very strong, they were not as strong as the court. Wu Zetian could suppress the clans, let alone Li Shimin?

Li Shimin admired Li Chao's financial management methods very much. In order to express his gratitude to Li Chao, Li Shimin asked Li Chao to lie down.

"I will help you rub your back."

Li Chao said he did not dare to let the emperor rub his back, but Li Shimin didn't say anything.

Ba Shang arched, pressed Li Chao down, picked up the towel and rubbed Li Chao's back. Li Shimin's hands were very strong, and he rubbed his shower very hard.

Li Chao felt a little painful on his back, a little hot, but it felt very good after it was spicy.

It’s like a blind man’s massage, with great strength and strong strength, and after all kinds of soreness and numbness, it’s comfortable.

Alas, if the emperor can help scrub the bath, Li Chao probably is the first person.

"Wenyuan, if you have any good ideas in the future, don't hide them, and I will never treat you badly." Li Shimin patted Li Chao's back and said, "I have thought about it. I will thank you very much. Well, this way, after you lead the troops to defeat the Turks, I will grant the 300-mile grassland northwest of the Houtao Plain Langshan as your territory, and allow your descendants to inherit it for generations and be the Pingxian of the Tang Dynasty forever."

The grasslands in the northwest of Langshan are the Urat grasslands in later generations, 250 miles from east to west and 300 miles from north to south.

It is a good place to connect to Mobei in the north, to Langshan in the south, to Alaxan in the west, and to Baotou in the east.

Did Li Shimin give these hundreds of miles to himself? Or was it a hereditary feudal territory?

Li Chao was a little stunned for a moment, unable to believe the news. Although it was on the grassland outside Yinshan Mountain, no matter what, this was a territory of 300 miles.

Feudal princes? She was hereditary?
