Chapter 375 Hostage

If the family has three males, then the amount of land allowed by his family is thirty acres. If it exceeds thirty acres, the deeds will be levied. If their family has 100 acres of land, then the amount exceeds 70 acres, ten percent of the deeds will be levied, that is, seven acres of which must be collected.

In addition, Li Xiao also had to check the household registration and register the property of all the people in the state. If the property reaches a certain amount, he would have to pay property tax, which was similar to the calculations during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han.

This is a one-time tax, but Li Xiaoding's tax rate is very high, 20%.

At the same time, Li Xiao also stipulated that interest rate cuts should be implemented on Baekje's original debt, which means that the original debt between Baekje people should not be higher than 8% of the monthly interest rate, and the total interest rate of the debt should not exceed one double the principal.

This seems to be meddling in other people's business, and is also aiming to attack these BeiGene powerful men.

In the past, those debts that exceed this interest will be reduced. If the interest on the repayment of the debt has reached the principal amount, then there will be no need to pay interest and repay the principal.

This is to win the support of those Baekje people at the bottom and continue to crack down on the powerful.

Another thing is that Li Xiao announced that he would build an official school in the prefecture city, requiring all powerful landlords to send their children to study, and it was not free and had to pay tuition fees, and the tuition fees were still quite high.

It is called reading, but it is actually a hostage.

First, they were forbidden from privately holding weapons, and then they were asked to send hostages to them. Then they measured the land and checked their household registration, collected deeds, property taxes, etc., and also reduced rent and interest rates.

Not only will the debt interest be reduced, but even their land rent is set to limit, and high rent is prohibited.

Step by step, it was all for these powerful men.

He cut their flesh with one knife, but Li Xiao did not stab them to death with one knife.

With the lessons from the three Shayan countries, although Li Xiao’s new regulations made them feel uncomfortable, no one dared to refute them. After all, compared to raiding the family and extermination of the clan, it is better to lose some money and be subject to some constraints now than losing their heads.

Li Xiao put forward these efforts to keep Wu Zhenzhou going.

What the Tang Dynasty wanted was to establish rule here, not to exterminate it. If it was just to kill and kill, it would only be to fish in the waters. There would be no next time after one time.

Now Li Xiao uses the method of cutting leeks. He cuts one by one, so he cannot hurt the roots of the leeks and maintain long-term benefits.

"I will send another list of articles to recruit state soldiers. In addition, after the land measurement results are obtained, the land that is more powerful and powerful is collected at one tenth, and the poor are recruited. The rent and tax can be set to be lowered first. If we can produce grain ourselves, we will be able to avoid the suffering of transporting grain in the Central Plains, and we will also be able to supply the frontline soldiers more quickly and conveniently."

"There is another one. His Majesty used the land here as collateral to sell bonds. Many of the land in Wuzhenzhou have already changed their owners in name. This matter must be handled as soon as possible, and the land in the yamen will be changed and registered first. If each company does not have time to accept it, we will manage it first and charge a certain management fee at that time."

"Then these people were released like this?"

"Stay them here for three days first." Li Xiao said.

Of course, staying for three days is not about treating guests to dinner, but about leaving some time. Use these three days to ask Zhao Chiman and Liu Jun to lead troops to sort out the following, first clean up the three forces of Shayan Kingdom, and then clean up the private armed forces of other powerful landlords.

After each family brings the hostages, these people can go back first.

"I think it's better to just stay here for three months, or I'll ask them to stay at Danluo Island for three months. With three months, everything can be arranged here." Liu Jun said.

"Three is too long, and we really want to send these people to Danluo Island, but we are afraid that people will be in panic. Those people may be anxious and will not be too anxious. Things can't be too urgent, and we will take it step by step. We must leave some room for these Baekje people, and we cannot force them too urgently."

As long as they exchange hostages, things will still be within controllable range.

Li Xiao is not a pure soldier like Liu Jun. They always speak with a knife and cut off the problem in dissatisfaction.

Li Xiao didn't like this. Although he had a military position in his power, he was a governor of herdsmen after all. His more important responsibility was not to conquer cities or kill people. His responsibility was to manage this place for the emperor and establish the rule of the Tang Dynasty in this newly conquered land.

If everyone is killed, then you still have to worry about it.

"I guess there must be many of those guys who are like Sha Yan Kingdom, secretly interacting with the Baekje court." Liu Jun continued.

"I know, but I don't have to worry about this matter for now. The past matters are temporarily written off. As long as they are willing to abide by the law in the future, I will give them a chance. Remember, this is no longer a battlefield, this is a newly established prefecture and county by the imperial court. This is already the land of the Tang Dynasty. The people on this land are also people of the Tang Dynasty. It is not in line with the interests of my Tang Dynasty if they just kill and kill them all."

What is rule?

Of course, there is order and everyone is responsible for their duties. The laws of the Tang Dynasty can be implemented here, the court can collect taxes here, and there are outputs here, and these are the rule.

If we really want to kill all the people, the Tang Dynasty would not be able to immediately move a large number of people from the Central Plains to immigrate and cultivate.

On that day, those people were enthusiastically invited by Li Xiao to stay in the prefecture yamen as a guest.

However, Wuzhenzhou City is still closed, and martial law is imposed on the whole city.

Zhao Chiman and Liu Jun led the team respectively and investigated them everywhere.

The heads of the three heads of Shayan Kingdom were hung from the city gate, and the three tribes were then uprooted and completely removed.

Each family honestly sent the protons.

In Li Xiao's words, he wanted to promote the education of the Tang Dynasty, so the governor would establish a provincial school and even personally serve as the school official teaching officer. The children of each family would become his disciples.

But, everyone knows that this is a hostage.

Hostages are not exchanged for one, but three for one. Only three for one person can be exchanged for one person. When the person is sent over, tuition and living expenses must be left behind.

"Don't worry, everyone, I will take good care of your children. Since these people have been studying under my school, I will take good care of them. You don't have to worry."

At the front of the prefecture.

The parents of each family all looked gray and frightened.

These three days have been the most painful three days.

After finally saving his life, who dares to say what to this smiling tiger again?

"Everyone, remember to abide by the law after you go back, and don't do anything randomly."

"It must be certain." Everyone responded quickly.
