Chapter 218 Xiaoling Mausoleum (2)

After years, Zhu Yunqiu has become more mature and he knows very well that the country is actually ruled, and in the face of the interests of the country, the interests of the people are very small.

No one can do it, truly putting people first!

However, because of this, we cannot avoid talking about heavy taxes. If a ruling person faces these disadvantages calmly and ignores them, what are the faces to say that he dares to be the first in the world.

Zhang Shan! Zhu Yunxiu said to Zhang Shan, who was sitting upright, tell me!

There are a few words that Master Ma agrees with! Zhang Shan spoke slowly, and the taxes are lighter, and the people may not be the ones who will benefit in the end!

But the grain tax is indeed collected from the people! Zhu Yunxiu frowned slightly and said, "I'm asking you to come here, just think of a way together. It can not only make the burden on the people in Jiangnan lighter, but also eliminate all kinds of hidden dangers from the root!"

Difficulty! Zhang Shandao, I have been the governor of Zhejiang for three years. As he spoke, he pointed at his temples and smiled. When His Highness chose his ministers as an official, I still had black hair, but now my temples are gray!

Zhu Yunxi nodded and said with a smile, "I know that it is not easy for you to be an official in Jiangnan!"

These words made the atmosphere in the hall much easier.

It’s not that being an official is not easy, but that doing things is too difficult! Zhang Shan continued to say that Magistrate Ma would be scolded by others when he said what he said, and what he said would offend people even more!

Speaking of this, I paused for a moment and continued to speak. Your Highness has the intention to reduce the agricultural tax. I naturally know that your Highness is concerned about the people and the people. But I am stupid and can't think of a way to achieve the best of both worlds. Your Highness means that after the tax cut, although the national taxes are reduced, the people's families are rich!

But after the tax cut, there are several disadvantages. The land hoarding in Magistrate Ma said was one of the first things to do... As he said that, he paused again. The world was uneven with the rich and the poor. Throughout the dynasties, poor places were less and rich places were more. If this place was reduced, should other poor places be reduced?

If their taxes were exempted from the previous year, if they were all reduced, wouldn’t the treasury be empty?

To put it further, except for official land, most of the land is in the hands of gentry, and the final tax reduction is still the highest happiness for the gentry. Although the tax on official land is heavy, the people have no other burdens except for paying taxes, and their lives are still acceptable. However, the benefits of the people who farm for gentry cannot fall on them at all!

Besides, Your Highness also knows the situation in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places. It’s okay for wealthy businessmen to be the people, but they are still the people. There are more scholars in wealthy and prominent families. They may not be able to collect taxes, but they can benefit the most!

This is the crux of the problem. This is why the old man suppressed the wealthy landlords in Jiangnan.

Even when the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, emperors of all dynasties waved butchers' knives at scholars in Jiangnan, there were such reasons.

Let's talk about it later.........

Sometimes, strengthening the country and enriching the people is not equal, but contradictory, and even difficult.

Zhu Yunxi nodded, you all know the stalls that were alone in Fengyang Zhongdu and Henan promoted by Ding Renmin, right? As he said, he said to Wei Renguan, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, "Tell me, what are the results?"

Wei Renguan said that since the Fengyang Huangzhuang Xuntian was distributed to the people, the number of people in Fengyang was 30% higher. After the Henan disaster, the harvest this summer was 25% higher than in previous years. Although His Highness was graceful, he exempted the money and food this year. If it were collected, the national treasury would have at least 40% higher than in previous years!

He was originally from Henan, and he had a smile on his face when he said this. In the past, there were a few poor places in Henan that had to be supplemented by the court, but now he can be self-sufficient. If officials and gentry pay food together, they will not be charged taxes and agricultural taxes. In a few years, those poor places can also feed back to the court!

As he said that, he bowed to Zhu Yunxi, and his nobles were benevolent and the people were worshipped for the people!

The ministers were a little puzzled and didn't understand why they were talking about the heavy burden of grain tax in Suzhou and other places, so they suddenly jumped to the new policy of digging into the acres.

I wanted to wait a little longer, but I couldn't wait. It really happened to the emperor's words, good things in the world are the most afraid of waiting! Zhu Yunxiu smiled and said, the grain tax in Suzhou and other places should be reduced. No matter what, the people have more than three or five dou left, at least there is no worries about hunger and cold!

However, given that the land in Jiangsu and Zhejiang has been severely annexed since ancient times, and there are many wealthy families and prominent families. Therefore, I plan to promote this place of vacancies and the officials and gentry will pay the food together!

If you collect taxes according to your land, you will pay as much tax as your family will! Whether it is officials or gentry, or scholars with fame and fortune.........

Your Highness, no! Before Zhu Yunyu finished speaking, several scholars from Jiangnan who were born in a prominent family led by Li Shen had kneeled down, and the king and scholars...

Shut up! Zhu Yunxi shouted fiercely, is Gu too tolerant to you? As he said that, he said to the outside world, pull it out, and beat it hard!

He was already full of anger because of the tax cut. Tax cuts are a good thing, but most people not only do not get benefits, but they are full of hidden dangers and are holding their breath. These people just hit him at the gun.

Your Highness...the officials were stunned. They could not have imagined why the crown prince, who was usually very tolerant of them, suddenly became furious.

A few officials who were led by the turtle, led the turtle and wrong butts and walked out.

Take a little further and beat him! Zhu Yunxiu remained angry. After the fight, he sent all of them to Shaanxi and Gansu to be county magistrates. Go and see what people's livelihood is, and then think about how to become an official!

Ling Han, the Minister of Personnel, smiled and said, "I obey the order!"

He is also a native of the North and he doesn't like these scholars from prominent families in Jiangnan the most.

No matter who you are, you have to pay taxes if you have land at home! Zhu Yunxiu continued to say that as much land as you have, you will pay as much as you have! The more land there are, the more you pay! In addition, governments at all levels should be alert, and look at the wealthy families and not allow them to hoard land. Buy and sell more than 20 acres and pay 70% of the tax, and see how much money they have!

If they dare to make false statements, they will make some things to pieces, and sell them in a few acres. After verification, they will be punished ten times the total number, and the rest of the property and land will be confiscated!

Remember, you are the local officials, and I will give you the right!

Zhu Yunxi's tone was stern, completely different from what he had just said.

Gu knew that such a new policy would inevitably cause an uproar! Zhu Yunxi continued, but Gu didn't care, they didn't care about scolding them behind their backs, and they didn't care about being criticized. No matter who it is, he dared to disobey government affairs, or be careless, or confront them, and investigate and deal with them.

Especially those wealthy and prominent families who dare to make small moves, you can do whatever you want! Zhu Yunxiu told Zhang Shan, Ma Jing and others that he is not afraid of being called a mean king, so don’t be afraid of being scolded as a cruel official!

Why don’t they collect taxes? What’s the burden of taxes? What’s the common people’s habit of paying taxes!

The Ming Dynasty did not abuse of their bad habits and wanted to continue to be the local emperor like the previous Mongolian Yuan Dynasty. Then go to the desert and find their Mongolian master!

I followed the order! Everyone replied.

The people need to reduce the burden, the rich need to keep an eye on it, you can take the right measures for yourself! Zhu Yunxiu said coldly, and just said the agricultural tax. Fu Youwen, you talk about the commercial tax this year!

In the implementation of commercial tax, only Ningbo, Quanzhou, Fuzhou and the three places have this year's current bank inputs.........

I heard you were sick a few days ago?

In the imperial garden, the old man was walking with his hands behind his back. Li Jinglong was holding a docile little foal beside him, and six kilograms of horses were nervously grasping the reins. With the support of the guards, his little face was full of excitement.

After hearing the old man’s question, Li Jinglong bowed a little, and I felt the cold and it was already cured!

I thought you wouldn't be sick and would be an idle Duke in the future! The old man glanced at him, looked back at his grandson, and smiled, where did you make this pony?

The crown prince sent several noble children to the Yunnan army to serve the year before yesterday. They were grateful to God and thought to his Highness. Hearing that the King of Wu is growing, he found such a docile little horse to the capital and asked me to send it to the palace! Li Jinglong said with a smile.

The old man from the Chang family asked.

Your Majesty has a clear understanding of thousands of miles! Li Jinglong said with a smile that this little horse was indeed brought back by a boy from the Chang family.

It’s good to know the future! The old man nodded and walked, and suddenly stopped.

There was a sound of slapping on the board in front, and there were people screaming loudly.

What's going on? The old man asked.

Park Bushen was busy and asked someone to go and see it. Later, someone rewarded him. It was His Highness who was in court that he was a disobedient civil servant!
