Chapter 2 The Taxation System of the Xia Tribe
After Pei's father and Pei's mother left, Ran Fei could enter the orc world with confidence and boldness, but he still had to find an opportunity to renovate the newly rented Yamada around the farm in large quantities.
Part of the foundation is deep for residential areas, part of the foundation can be laid shallower, and when the time comes, the scale of the chicken farm will be expanded, and the small hill that is attached to it can not destroy the ecological environment.
Ran Fei originally wanted to use it to open a pig farm, but first, the wild boar gouged the roots of the tree, which destroyed the ecological environment, and second, after the scale was large, it could not be managed at all without expanding the number of employees, and it was not something that could be solved by one or two employees.
After thinking about it, Ran Fei decided to dig and build a few ponds in the mountains, raise some fish and lotus lotus, and cultivate sentiment in summer, focusing on exercise...... (cranky)
I just don't know if grass roots have an effect on fish.
In the evening, after Zeng Shunlan and Wang Xiaoxiong went back, Ran Fei brought out a team of ko-headed craftsmen and five teams of rat-headed orcs.
The rat-headed orcs began to lay the foundation in batches, and as they made their rounds, the kobolds discussed the construction of the houses and measured the size of the rented land.
Just in case, Ran Fei also asked the rat-headed orcs to lay bushes in a hidden place, and there was also a tunnel below, so a total of a dozen tunnels were set up, and if necessary, the dog-headed craftsmen and rat-headed orcs would go into the tunnel to hide.
The piles used to lay the foundation are fine iron piles built by the dog-headed craftsmen themselves, and the deep pits are dug by the rat-headed orcs. (Pure bragging13, complain about yourself...... )
Ran Fei shook it, feeling that the entire construction site didn't need him, so he told Pei Yan and flashed into the Xia tribe.
Man Zheng sat in the middle of the hall, waiting for Ran Fei.
After seeing Ran Fei, he quickly stepped forward with an anxious expression: "Chief, the promotion effect of copper coins is extremely poor, and the people are reluctant to use copper coins. ”
Ran Fei frowned: "What's the matter?"
"At the beginning, we started to use copper coins in a few shops that we opened ourselves, and the livestock raised by the tribesmen and the crops they planted were all exchanged for materials in our shops before, but now we know that we can only exchange them for this kind of copper coins, especially if there are taxes, except for a few female orcs who lead the family, no one else is willing, and would rather exchange them in small quantities with the surrounding neighbors. Man said.
It seems that the situation has begun to deteriorate, Ran Fei pinched his brows and said:
"What about inside the troops?"
"Soldiers, the copper coins used to pay the military are distributed, and they can also exchange the copper coins for meat, clothes, and salt in our shop...... It doesn't matter to them. Man said truthfully.
"Then it seems that the troops are not affected...... Wait a minute, what did you just say?" Ran Fei suddenly noticed, and then said in surprise:
"No one makes salt privately, right?"
After thinking for a while, he said, "No, the method of making white salt is still what you told us, Chief...... That's right, they still have some reserve salt, and when they run out of salt, they will naturally have to find a way to exchange it for copper coins and buy it in our store!"
Man's expression couldn't help but get better, and Ran Fei also smiled and said:
"That's not all, we collect taxes to build the tribe, tomorrow during the day, tell them truthfully, if you don't pay taxes, you won't issue tribal iron cards, and those who don't have iron cards don't belong to the orcs of the Xia tribe, and we won't care if we encounter enemies." Ran Fei said.
Man hesitated for a moment, frowned and said, "Will this be tough?"
"Forced measures must be taken, do you think that the Xia tribe can really develop by producing and selling it in this way, and for a long time, the comfortable Xia tribe will be slowly swallowed by other tribes. Ran Fei said categorically.
Man nodded and said no more, when Ruya knocked on the door and walked in.
"Chief, the stele has been built. ”
Ran Fei lifted his spirits, stood up and said, "Are you outside?" ”
Ruya nodded, and Kazuman quickly followed.
The stone stele that Ruya instructed the dog-headed craftsmen to build was a tribal tax and some punishment measures for the tribe to be lazy and not abide by the tribal rules.
The taxation of the Xia tribe is the crystallization of the combination of the feudal period in China, but because the currency cannot be unified, the monetary tax cannot be chosen for the time being.
The land of the tribe is leased, that is to say, these lands are actually Ranfei's, but they are leased to you for use, and the tax taken is not high, thirty taxes one.
In addition, minerals, livestock and other things are also subject to taxes, and the soldiers of the army do not collect taxes, and after enlisting in the army for more than five years, regardless of the official position, Ran Fei will give you the land that really belongs to you, although there is money at that time, taxes must also be collected, but at least, you have the bottom in your heart.
For the recalcitrant ones, Ran Fei was not prepared to waste any more time, expelling from the tribe, and collecting his belongings, leaving only part of his food.
Now the soldiers and craftsmen who belong directly to Ran Fei are issued copper coins, and there is no need to charge taxes for the use of copper coins at present.
This is the key, even if an orc is tempted to use copper coins first and is exempt from taxes, other orcs will fall into contradictions after a while, and then start to use copper coins, and wait for copper coins to become popular, and then raise taxes when the time comes.
It's just that the monetary tax is lower, only two percent, and the benefits of the troops have increased, and the compensation for the victims has also increased.
As for those who are lazy and lazy, enjoy a comfortable living environment all day long, and run to the army canteen from time to time to eat, they will be detained for one day at a time, two days at a time, three times for four days, and so on, and no food will be provided!
Ran Fei rubbed his temples and asked Ruya to lead someone to nail the stone tablet outside the shaman hall in the center of the tribe.
At present, the Xia tribe has a total population of nearly 20,000 people of the five races, among which the rat-headed orcs are the most, miners, troop spies, scouts on the city walls, and new soldiers of the construction team......
The management personnel are seriously insufficient, and Ran Fei not only explains many things, but also personally supervises the implementation, even if Ran Fei has been strengthened, he feels powerless.
The promotion of administrators of various races should also be put on the agenda, and not only those who have made many meritorious contributions on the battlefield can become managers, but you can build a house well, be honest and hardworking, and not be rigid, that line, you come up, mine, fight weapons, and even raise livestock, you have a chance.
After carving all these regulations on the stone tablet, Ran Fei waited to see the effect tomorrow.
Moreover, the two elders of Man and Ruya have also been tired recently, and there was originally another candidate, Ghost Ya, who was also in the Shu tribe and didn't know when he would return.
"Man, you go back and rest first, get up tomorrow, open a school next to the shaman hall, all orcs who have not yet reached the 10th anniversary must enter the school to study, and the teacher's words will temporarily tire you and the few leaders of the barbarian ones to take turns to temporarily replace. Ran Fei pondered for a while, and then spoke. (The tenth anniversary of the orcs is adulthood, compared to the eighteen-year-old of humans, and the orcs live longer, if there is no disease and no disaster, 150 years old is no problem, of course, the medical environment is extremely poor, few orcs can live to be more than 70 years old.) )
Man nodded, dragging his tired body back to his house.
Ran Fei couldn't help but be a little worried when he looked at it from behind, the medical environment in the tribe was extremely poor, and he couldn't help but be so tired that he couldn't stand it, and it was estimated that his full body would not be able to hold it for a long time.
No one will use the medical equipment on the earth, and those who can use it can't be easily kidnapped, Ran Fei couldn't help but think of it, in addition to shamans, patriarchs, and those who command these special abilities, there is also one of the most important abilities, that is, witch doctors.
Unlike shamans, witch doctors will have a kind of medical wand-like thing after reaching the high-level shaman, which can heal external injuries as quickly as possible, and internal injuries can be used for a long time, and can also heal, but very slowly.
Although the time for witch doctors to treat external injuries is not much different from that of shamans, but the treatment of internal injuries and diseases, that is their strength, in the final analysis, witch doctors are Chinese medicine in China, and they combine their own special abilities, not only herbs and other essential things in Chinese medicine, but also to create plagues, as well as poisons. (Bimo has always felt that our Chinese medicine is really magic!13 of the most cow!)
However, the tribe also needs to slowly improve their quality, not to ask them to know too much, at least to know a certain amount of common sense.
Ran Fei once saw a little orc, found a water source, and began to drink it, and Ran Fei, who remembered his eyesight, also saw some small insects burrowing into the mouth of the little orc along the water.
If this knowledge can be disseminated, orcs will also be able to increase their lifespan in general.
It was getting late and late, Ran Fei glanced at the red moon in the orc world, shook his head, and went back to earth to sleep.
The Ghost Tooth looked at the red moon in the sky, and couldn't help muttering: "Xia ......"
A pair of snow-white arms suddenly wrapped around his waist, it was the girl kobold orc before: "Ghost Fang, go to sleep, don't think about it, one day, you ...... We're sure we'll be able to go back to the Xia tribe. ”
There was a touch of tenderness in the eyes of the ghost fangs that none of their brothers had ever seen, and he turned his head, hugged the girl kobold orc to the bed, pressed it, and gently vented the anxiety in his heart.
Under the arrangement of Chief Shu, the people of the Shang tribe were stationed in the camp where the Ghost Tooth was, but at this moment, the Ghost Tooth was falling into the gentle country and had no time to pay attention.
"Chief Shang, you must know that your current situation is that it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree...... "Red Hair said to Chief Shang with a muddy face.
Chief Shang nodded, and said with a smile: "Shang Tomb understands, the red-haired commander can greet me if he has something......
"Haha, then in this case, I won't fix those vanity, you try your best to suppress that ghost tooth, don't worry, whatever happens, I'll bear it for you, as long as my red hair is still in the day, I will definitely not treat you badly." The red hair patted Shang Fen's shoulder with relief, and slowly left in Shang Fen's compliment.
After watching the red hair leave, Shang Tomb couldn't help but spit out: "After waiting for Lao Tzu to take the throne, you will be the first to die, but is that ghost tooth also in the Shu tribe? It's a little interesting......
