The young master is not the kind of person who pretends to be poor even if he has money, but he is really unreal. The land and tenants occupied by several big families in Shandong can almost account for two-fifths of Shandong's total tax revenue. This is not counting the relationship between them and merchants. The gray income they operated by their own business. Just referring to the Zheng family, just Zheng Xuyou revealed to me that his family's industries are almost all over the north and south of the world, and the total wealth value can definitely reach an astronomical figure, at least higher than the tax revenue of a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty.

This was revealed when Zheng Xuyou was half drunk and half awake while drinking and chatting with me. Of course, although this gentleman, as a gentleman, did not disclose this amazing news to others, I could at least understand through observation and private knowledge, and through the Jinzouyuan channel, the princes and nobles of the Tang Dynasty and the nobles and aristocratic families accounted for at least one-third of the Tang Dynasty's tax revenue.

According to the tax revenue of Zhenguan for 21 years, a total of 6.85 million jin. Of course, this only refers to the taxes of the people of the Tang Dynasty, and does not include the contributions of the various vassal states. From this point of view, if all the people of the Tang Dynasty could pay taxes according to the rules, it would be normal to increase the tax revenue of Zhenguan for 21 years of 21 years of jinping. These bureaucrats, princes and nobles, and scholars were simply a group of blood-sucking insects that cling to the Tang Dynasty. Although I am one of them, I am an enterprising and reform-oriented mentality, a revolutionary spirit, and a revolutionary spirit, and can give up self-interest for the sake of national justice and accusing this social unfairness and sacrificial spirit.

After working hard and spending a lot of time, I finally completed these things roughly. In fact, the taxes of the Tang Dynasty were not heavy. It can be said that the taxes of farmers were quite light, and the rent and mediocre system was based on the equal land system. It stipulates: "Each 100-year rent is two stones of millet. The mixing is two zhang per year. The silk and silk are two zhang each. The cloth is one fifth. The one who exports silk and silk are three liang. The one who exports silk and silk are three jin. The one who receives the cloth is three jin. The one who receives the cloth is three jin. The one who receives the cloth is two jin. The one who receives the traffic is three jin. The one who receives the traffic is three jin. The one who receives the traffic is three jin. The one who receives the traffic is three jin. The one who receives the traffic is five days and the one who receives the traffic is three jin. The one who receives the traffic is five days away. The one who receives the traffic is all exempted from the traffic for 30 days. The rent and transfer is all exempt from the traffic."

In fact, there are two important reasons why the people become hidden households. One is that disasters occur. People have no food and clothing, so they can only sell their land to help their stomachs. In this way, after losing the land, they can only become landlords and tenants who buy their land. They become hidden households. They go out to beg for food when they have land, and are later accepted by nobles or noble families, and become farmers in their land. This becomes a fugitive.

Another reason is labor service. The Tang Dynasty stipulated that the annual service was twenty-year, which means that every farmer would need to work for the country for twenty days. If you were unwilling to do it, then you would have to pay the corresponding money for the voluntary construction site days. However, if you work for the country for more than twenty days, five more days will be exempted from the land transfer you needed to pay back then. If it is thirty days, it would be one month. Then, you can exempt the land rent transfer this year.

However, some state officials do not do their jobs as required and even drive the people to work for two or three months. Sometimes, they use the name of government places to ask the people to do private affairs for them. In this way, after the farming season, the farmers have no output, and naturally they can only sell their land to make a living. If you get rid of your skin and flesh, it is considered a slightest place to get rid of your skin. If you really make trouble for the county magistrate or the head of a state, you may be charged with rebellion against the government. After a while, everyone will have to escape.

The increase in fleeing households will naturally reduce the country's taxes, which is certain. Moreover, although I did not directly point out the national administrative orders, it is very likely that the reverse effect will be caused by the officials' inaction and wanton acts. My father has already seen the key. I believe that Uncle Li's IQ can be seen. If I can't see it, I'm not afraid, but my father will definitely give advice to Uncle Li.

As long as the old man can give this list that has been carefully considered by me and a few wives, he handed over to Uncle Li, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty who likes to be ruthless will definitely be angry and will not say that he may also rush to the city gate tower to yell overnight.

Sure enough, after the old man went to court the next day, he met with Uncle Li in private. Uncle Li became furious on the spot. I don’t know how many uncivilized words Uncle Li said. Naturally, the old man would not reveal it to me, so as not to damage the face of His Majesty the Emperor. However, the old man still told me that Uncle Li was so angry that he almost overturned Qifeng Pavilion. Moreover, he ordered the old man to tell me that no matter what, he must give Uncle Li a reform plan that can solve these disadvantages, otherwise Uncle Li’s anger would probably throw on my head.

After hearing what the old man reposted, I quickly saluted to the palace. Well, the two middle fingers pointed at the sky, I was not ashamed, old man, despicable and vulgar. I am a grandpa who serves the country selflessly. This old guy is so good that he actually treats me as a punching bag?

I can't see my chest full of resentment. "Haha, Erlang is so angry that I'm really a young man."

"My father taught me a lesson, but His Majesty's words really made the child feel a little unacceptable. He obviously did something good for His Majesty, so why did he want to put the shit on my head?" He should respect the old man, but he did not have so much concern for the old hooligan in front of the old man.

"Okay, okay, you should not be arrogant when you win, you should not be discouraged when you lose, and you should not be shocked by honor and disgrace. Only then will you be the true nature of heaven and man and the way of a gentleman. Erlang, you are still far from being apart. You are right. Your Majesty is just inspiring you and telling you boy. Your Majesty has something to say behind you. If you can do this to satisfy Your Majesty, your Majesty will say it in person, as long as you are willing, you will be granted a county official."

"County Duke?" I couldn't help but take a breath. Although the founding county duke was the lowest among the highest titles in the Tang Dynasty, this was definitely not something that could be given lightly.

My mother's eyes were so excited that she pulled the master's clothes regardless of her manners: "Master, what Your Majesty said in person? Are you teasing me and Erlang?"

The old man sighed helplessly and smiled bitterly: "Can I make such a big deal be a joke? However, whether it will be successful depends on whether our Erlang can fight for this."

Since the eleventh year of Zhenguan, the Tang Dynasty established a new rank system, and divided the nine grades of titles: first-class kings, fiefs of ten thousand households, and the first-rank; second-class kings, princes, fiefs of five thousand households, and the first-rank; third-class dukes, with fiefs of three cents, and the first-rank; fourth-class dukes, founding counties of two cents, and the second-rank; fifth-class dukes, founding counties of two cents, with fiefs of five hundred cents, and the second-rank; sixth-class dukes, founding counties of one thousand cents, with fiefs of one thousand cents, and the second-rank; seventh-class dukes, founding counties of seven hundred cents, and the fourth-rank; eighth-class dukes, founding counties of five hundred cents, and the fifth-rank; ninth-class males, founding counties of three hundred cents, and founding counties of five cents, and founding counties of five cents, and founding counties of five cents, and founding counties of three hundred cents, and founding counties of five cents.

My son's current title is the sixth-class Kaiguo County Marquis. However, if you want to be promoted from Kaiguo County Marquis to County Prince, you must make a great contribution. But then I think that if you lose the title, I really don't see the fief. To be honest, I really don't see it. There is no use for many people. I will not rebel. In addition, my son's fief is far away in Liaodong. Even if the cement straight road from Chang'an to Liaodong is now open to traffic, it will take two months to go back and forth. Unless I am full, I will not go again if I beat you to death. Nothing else, because I am not free, the output is not enough for a year of a workshop under my command.

If Uncle Li saw my expression, he might praise me for being firm in his will, not being invaded by external things, or being confused by wealth. But the problem is that I can't be excited. However, it will be different in my parents' eyes. The old man's thoughts are different from ours. He thinks that one family and two men are definitely a great joy, and it is also the glory of the whole family of Fang, adding luster to his ancestors.

My mother's eyes were almost full of golden flowers. If it weren't for the old man's stopping her, I'm afraid that my mother might have rushed to the ancestral hall to burn incense and worship her ancestors. "Madam is in such a hurry, and there is no question of the matter yet." The old man was a little amused. My mother finally came back to her senses and restored her true nature as a shrewd and capable mistress of the Fang family. She said to me very seriously: "Erlang, you are making trouble on weekdays, and you can turn a blind eye to the other side of your eyes. However, you can't be careless about this kind of big thing that shines the lintel and brings the face of our Fang family. You can't be careless at all. At that time, be careful not to spare your mother, do you understand?"

Under my mother's power, what else can I say? I promised my mother and the old man that I would work hard and make progress, carry forward the spirit of the Chinese nation's not afraid of sacrifice or sweat, and strive to bring glory to the Fang family, and finally got the two elders. After saying goodbye to the two elders, I looked so angry that this shameless imperialist leader had a good business. He didn't need to spend too much money at all, so he took an empty viscount to trap this young master.
