Flower Stealing Master Chapter 1462: Standing on the shoulders of giants


Zhou Zhiruo was unmoved, and said indifferently: "Without me, you can be as good as you are, no matter how great you are.." One sentence caused Zhao Min to punch to the empty space, and her heart was suffocated.

Song Qingshu heard her scalp numb, thinking that it was the biggest mistake to ask them both at the same time, and she should talk to them one by one in private.

Seeing that Zhou Zhiruo had the upper hand, he took a triumphant look at Zhao Min on the side, and then he asked Song Qingshu to report another matter: "I have read the resumes of Jianghuai Land Boundary officials during this period. Less greedy and perverted generations, but considering that Yangzhou’s new annex, everything is based on stability, our focus during this time is still on mastering the army, so we only made fine-tunings on those local officials, except for a few special **** officials who were killed by me. Apart from that, the others haven’t moved yet. We will settle accounts with them slowly after everything stabilizes in the future."

"Well done, stability is indeed the top priority now!" Song Qingshu couldn't help but exclaimed. After speaking, he gave Zhao Min a surprised look. "These are what you came up with? The princess is really all-rounder!"

Zhou Zhiruo's face turned dark, Zhao Min couldn't help but giggled: "People are asking you for credit. I didn't expect you to count the credit directly on the princess, giggles~ It seems that I am better than Some people are much smarter and more reliable."

Feeling the murderous aura behind him, Song Qingshu only felt a chill on his back, and instantly changed his words: "However, if you are more powerful, you can drive such a powerful talent to use for yourself."

Hearing what he said, Zhou Zhiruo's face looked better, but Zhao Min's face went dark.

"Where's the tax?" Song Qingshu secretly wiped his cold sweat, and quickly changed the subject.

"Taxation is more troublesome," Zhou Zhiruo frowned. "Although the land of Jianghuai is rich, most of the land is concentrated in the hands of the gentry. However, the previous taxation policy gave preferential treatment to those who have merit, and the gentry can reduce a lot of money. In order to avoid taxation, many poor peasants put their land in the hands of the gentry, and it is easy to be annexed by the gentry over time... The tax collected is much worse than the actual amount of land."

"Land annexation, a necessary stage of feudal society, normal." Song Qingshu began to think about it. Although he understood its inevitability, he had to find a way to solve this problem. He didn't want to fight at that time without military pay and repeat the mistakes of Chongzhen. .

"In fact, it is easy to solve this problem." Zhao Min on the side suddenly said.

"How to solve it?" Zhou Zhiruo had been having a headache for this time, so she subconsciously asked.

Zhao Min raised her chin, and a trace of triumph flashed in her eyes: "Please!"

Zhou Zhiruo took a breath, turned her head and chose to ignore it.

Song Qingshu gave a wry smile: "Princess, don't sell the pass, tell us about it."

"Hmph, because you have a better attitude, I will teach you." Seeing Zhou Zhiruo's mouth saying ignore, but actually pricked his ears to listen, Zhao Min smiled very brightly, "We Mongolia Now that the empire has a vast territory, taxation is also a big problem. At first, it was improved according to the taxation laws of your Han people, but the effect was not very good. Later, some people gave suggestions and invented a taxation method, which is to adjust the tax rate to one. Very high level."

"Cut, what good idea did I have at the time," Zhou Zhiruo sneered again and again, "the lower-class people do not rise up the tax rate?"

"What are you doing so impatiently, I haven't finished it yet," Zhao Min gave her a blank look and continued, "This tax rate is very high, and ordinary people can't afford it. However, the court will establish an institution that can issue loans and will The money is lent to the people to pay taxes, and the repayment period is extended appropriately. Of course, the longer the repayment period, the higher the interest rate."

"Doesn't it mean that the people will not live out? The people will still rise up?" Zhou Zhiruo frowned.

"Of course not," Zhao Min suddenly sneered. "The people at the bottom are all contented animals. As long as there is room for options, they will not rebel. The court lends them money to leave room for them. ."

"Isn't this multi-layered exploitation?" Zhou Zhiruo was quite dissatisfied. "You Mongolians are really vampires."

"What about it!" Zhao Min didn't care. "The law of the weak is to eat the strong. Although this method seems inhumane, the tax collected is dozens of times that of the Han people. Our Mongolian treasury is full. Organize stronger armies to conquer more countries."

"Rude barbarian." Zhou Zhiruo snorted, but in his heart he had to admit that Mongolia was so powerful, and it really made sense.

Song Qingshu looked weird. The court borrowed money from the people to pay taxes. How come it looks like a mortgage for later generations...

"The princess's plan is indeed very reasonable..." Song Qingshu exaggerated Zhao Min's sky-flowers a lot, and suddenly changed the subject, "But this method is too advanced, and it will be easy to catch fish if you are not careful. It may be a short time. There is no problem, but after ten years or so, various problems will erupt. When the people cannot survive, the country is in danger of collapse."

We must know how many economists, mathematicians, and political geniuses are calculating their models in future generations to keep the pulse of the real estate market under control. For this reason, economic crises erupt from time to time around the world.

In today's world, Song Qingshu doesn't believe that there are so many scientists who can handle this extremely complex financial system, and most people are just beginning to get involved in this area. All experience is still being explored, and many major problems will definitely break out in the future.

In history, Mongolia adopted the Huihui people's tax policy. At the beginning, it did hide its sweetness. However, after a serious turbulence broke out, this method had to be abandoned.

Although Zhao Min is smart, it has the limitations of the times. She thinks this taxation method is so effective. She told Song Qingshu without reservation. He didn't appreciate it and could not help but secretly angry: "Huh, do you think this is also No, that doesn’t work either, it seems you must have an idea?"

"I thought of a few ways, let me think about it first." Song Qingshu's mind flew rapidly at this time, but he didn't pay attention to Zhao Min's emotional changes.

When he saw him hit the snake with the stick, Zhao Min snorted and turned his head directly, planning to never give this **** any more ideas. Zhou Zhiruo, who was on the side, was very energetic, apparently pleased to hear about this situation.

Song Qingshu didn't notice the undercurrent surging between the two women and began to pay taxes carefully. The first thought that came up in his mind was to divide the land with local tyrants. The road that Taizu traveled at that time proved to be effective. It gave full play to the enthusiasm of the farmers, and it would burst out terrifying energy.

But he quickly dispelled the idea, and the time is not yet ripe. The reason why Taizu succeeded was because of internal and external troubles. China was faced with unprecedented changes in this millennium and reached the point where it could not be broken or stood still.

In today’s world, the gentry class has a lot of wealth in society, and almost all talents come from the gentry class. If they are completely offended, they will not escape to other countries. In addition, the gentry class still controls public opinion. At that time, he really became the image of a butcher.

You should know that Li Zicheng’s lessons are not far away. When Chongzhen ran out of ammunition and food, he did not attack the gentry in the capital. As a result, Li Zicheng found tens of millions of taels of silver from the gentry’s home as soon as he entered Beijing. For a while, but in the end they were regarded by the scholar-officials all over the world as unshakable enemies; on the contrary, the Manchus treated these gentry very preferentially, so they all became the leader of the Manchus. The party, because the gentry clans were very powerful in the local area. They were huge, and they were the pioneers, so the Manchus could sweep the world with tens of thousands of Eight Banners soldiers.

Song Qingshu still needs the help of the gentry class to govern the place, and the support of the gentry class is needed to compete for the world. After all, farmers in this world have no culture at all. It is okay to expect them to be gangsters and looters. It is really impossible to expect them to do great things. .

He didn't want to be Li Zicheng, so he could only give up the attractive method of later generations.

"Is there any way you can do it? Use mine if you don't." Zhao Min waited aside, seeing that he hadn't spoken all the time, and suddenly became a little impatient.

"Of course there is!" Song Qingshu has straightened out his thoughts at this moment, and replied directly, "We can do both by combining ‘never add money’ and ‘putting a lot of money into acres’."

"What do you mean?" The two women looked blank.

Song Qingshu explained: "I myself used to be just a small citizen. Now that I have the ability, I naturally have to consider the lives of the people. Never adding gifts is mainly to reduce the burden of the people. Of course, it is also to win the hearts of the people. In the future, other countries When the people heard that we were there, they greeted Master Wang with a pot of syrup."

Zhou Zhiruo had also lived at the bottom back then, and she deeply agrees with his thoughts: "Yes, like today’s turmoil, the masses of people are facing all kinds of exorbitant taxes and taxes, and they have to increase taxes at every turn. They are already miserable, Qingshu, you can think of them. , It’s really admirable, I... I also like it~ IndoMTL.com~ Zhao Min couldn’t help but said sourly: “Anyone who wants fame is good, but if you want face, you can’t get lees. If you don’t add money, you won’t have money. Military pay can only be slaughtered in disputes among nations, and there may be another Song Xianggong in history. "

"So this has to be solved by'paying a small amount of money into acres'." Song Qingshu explained calmly, "In the past, taxes were collected as a'poll tax'. How many people pay how many taxes, but often the poor people There are a few people in a family, and there are only a dozen people in the gentry family, but the wealth of the two sides differs by countless levels. It is unreasonable to calculate taxes and fees based on heads. If the tax is paid based on the number of acres of land owned, it will not only reduce The burden of the poor can also greatly enrich the national treasury and collect far more taxes than before."

Never add Fu and Tan Ding Lu Mu were made by the Qing Dynasty in history. Although the Qing Dynasty’s treatment of the Han people and later weaknesses against the Western powers became an inevitable black spot, it was only from the perspective of the feudal dynasty. However, some of its systems are much better than many previous dynasties.

Especially the stall that Yongzheng has acquired. It really solved the stubborn disease of land mergers for thousands of years and the later gentry class invaded the country’s interests. Of course, because of this, the scholar-official class’s reputation for Yongzheng has always been. very bad.
