Wang Yue was angry, but Empress Dowager Jiang didn't care.

"The mourning family took out five million taels and recovered five million taels, within half a year, there was no interest, and the loss of the mourning family was not small!" Empress Dowager Jiang's face was full of unwillingness, and she sighed: "Little rich and noble, don't look at the mourning family is the queen mother, the family has a big business, but the big family also has the difficulties of the big family, and everything needs money when you open the door." Your Majesty is a person who can't settle accounts, and there is no mourner staring, in this palace, you may have to drink the northwest wind. ”

"The mourning family lent you money in private, but you are not allowed to let others know, otherwise someone will talk nonsense and say that the mourning family is biased."

Wang Yue complained: "Queen Mother, do you want me to write an IOU, it's easy to talk." ”

Empress Dowager Jiang was stunned for a moment, then coughed: "Okay, the mourning family still doesn't believe you!" Don't play with the mourning family, I still have the final say on the affairs in this palace! When I turn around, I will have someone send you the silver! ”

……

Wang Yue came out of the palace and felt full of malice, thinking that at the beginning, how simple a person the Empress Dowager Jiang was, in order to buy fame for her son, she took out 350,000 taels without hesitation and handed it over to herself, and she didn't want to return it at all, how long has it been? How did you forget your original intention, it's really the capital of all evil!

A good person has become a calculating person, and he still calculates interest with me, won't you have a bad conscience?

Wang Yue went home directly with a stomach full of grievances, he had to think about it, after half a year, how to deal with the old lady, if he wanted to have an extra income of two million taels, it was not easy, it was almost equivalent to half a year old.

Earn half a year in half a year...... This is the speed at which I can make money compared to the household!

This old lady really thinks highly of my skills!

Wang Yue was so worried...... But I didn't know that the capital at this moment had set off a monstrous wave, whether it was the back wave or the front wave, everyone was up.

At the cabinet meeting, Zhang Xuan openly admitted that the method he proposed was instructed by his mentor Wang Yue. Zhang Xuan said it as a matter of course, and he didn't feel that this was causing trouble for Wang Yue at all.

On the contrary, Zhang Xuan thinks that it is a brilliant idea, a pioneering and a good way to go down in history.

The weakest item in the Ming Dynasty is finance and taxation, and some people blame Zhu Yuanzhang for this disaster. Of course, Lao Zhu has a lot of pots on his back, not bad for this one, but if he forces Zhu Yuanzhang to see through the 200-year history and formulate various national policies in advance, it will really embarrass his old man.

And Zhu Yuanzhang is facing a devastation waiting to be lifted.

At that time, he was recuperating and recuperating, whether it was the official system or the tax system, he wanted to be simple and clear, and if he could not toss, he would not toss.

It is precisely because of Lao Zhu's efforts that Hong Yongrenxuan has a prosperous age.

However, by now, taxation has become a battlefield for various interest groups.

Everyone has to rack their brains, fight wits and courage, and fight ruthlessly!

Like Zhang Xuan, he is ruthless enough, but although Zhiyong is not bad, he is still too much worse than Wang Yue.

Replacing preferential exemptions with grade allowances really made Zhang Xuan's eyes shine, and it can even be said that it was an eye-opener, and his thinking was suddenly opened...... In the past, he just wanted to push Qingzhang and snatch meat from the mouths of hundreds of officials.

But Wang Yue's move gave him a different understanding.

Aren't you exempt from taxes?

All right!

Lao Tzu still gives you exemptions, not only reductions, but also in the name of allowances, directly to you, so that you can save trouble, and directly take money and food, see what you say?

In this way, you can block the mouths of the vast majority of officials, and see how you still oppose it?

But what...... Behind the allowance, it is completely clear...... There is no preferential land at the local level, and there are no special groups that can not serve in the army.

In all government decrees, what I am most afraid of is complexity. The more complex something is, the harder it is to execute, and it seems to be exhaustive, but in fact it is full of loopholes.

The most direct way to evaluate the quality of a decree is to look at the frequency of "etc" in the text, once there are too many, it is by no means a good decree.

For example, if an official is given an upper limit of preferential exemption, a family needs to pay 100 koku for the field, and the imperial court exempts 30 koku, leaving 70 koku...... It seems very simple, but the question is how to determine the total number of fields, which acres are preferential, how to calculate this, and whether there are loopholes...... In fact, it is precisely because of the complicated operation that the families of the gentry officials, no matter how many acres of land, will be exempted from taxes.

Now the imperial court pays money and gives subsidies to officials, and all localities are cleared, and there are no preferential exemptions, and all taxes are levied, and the biggest loophole is filled.

This is a typical example of spending a little money and doing a lot of things!

And there is also a problem that has been solved. That is, Da Ming's Yu Lu is too low!

is still the same sentence, Daming's salary is too low, and it is not Zhu Yuanzhang's problem.

You can't take the disgraceful old Zhao family and old Zhubi.

The old Zhu Tang has laid down the country in a dignified manner, so that the officials can live enough, how can it be possible to treat the scholars as ancestors?

In fact, in the Hongwu Dynasty, many officials said that the money given by Lao Zhu was enough to live.

But the problem is that in the next hundred years of development, commerce and trade are booming, prices in Daming have risen rapidly, except for the small fluctuations in grain, everything else is rising, and the rent in Beijing has risen more than ten times.

Frankly speaking, the same fortune is indeed not enough to live.

However, if the allowance is paid according to the grade, the income of the officials can generally be doubled.

This is nothing to corrupt officials, but those who are clean and self-righteous can get great preferential treatment.

The imperial court can capture the hearts of Qing officials.

What is a good policy?

First of all, he occupied the righteousness, and the division was famous.

Secondly, the complex process is simplified and done in one step.

In the end, allies were also co-opted and the enemy was isolated!

Who said that changing the law must offend people?

The real change of law should be to let more friends and fewer enemies, and constantly grow new interest groups in order to replace the old forces.

Zhang Xuan became more and more convinced that what Master said that he had a way to make the change successful, was not an empty word!

The benefits of this method are not only clear to Zhang Xuan...... Even a few talented people are full of praise, such as Tang Yin, who is a six-grade official, who can get a grain allowance of 12 stones, and 72 taels of silver equivalent to 12 Ding wages.

Wen Zhengming is one level lower than him, but he also has 10 stone of grain and 60 taels of silver to get.

"Brother Bohu, speaking of which, we have been in Beijing for so long, and we haven't eaten a good meal yet, I'll treat you when you go back, and then call Brother Zhu, he dealt with the matter of Xishan some time ago, and he did a good job, and he hasn't asked him for credit yet!"

Tang Yin couldn't help but chuckle, "Brother Wen is willing to have a treat, that's the best." But I'm afraid that Brother Zhu won't be happy! ”

"Who says I can't be happy? Do I wish Yunming this open-mindedness? The surname is Tang, you explain it to me! "I wish the big fat man from the outside, rushing in, like a behemoth, uprooting mountains and trees, and the sound is terrifying.

When he arrived in front of Tang Yin and Wen Zhengming, he snorted angrily: "Do you want to talk about my grandfather? ”

Wen Zhengming hurriedly waved his hand, "It's not me, it's Brother Bohu, it's what he said!" ”

Zhu Yunming snorted, "I, I think that if their Xu family is smart, they should be honest and don't go against the imperial court." After all, it is shameful enough to die in Shaobao, and if you fight against the law change, it will really be stinking for 10,000 years. ”

It turned out that Zhu Yunming's mother was the daughter of the late pavilion elder Xu Youzhen, and Xu Youzhen was most remembered for framing Shaobao...... Zhu Yunming's imperial examination was not smooth, and his career was bleak, which also had something to do with his identity...... The so-called genius, who is not a belly of bitter water, and who is lucky, who is a talent!

"Brother Bohu, Brother Wen, I plan to write a letter to thank you...... Are you willing to follow? Zhu Yunming sent out an invitation.

Tang Yin and Wen Zhengming barely hesitated, and immediately nodded.

So the thanksgiving table concocted by the three great talents was sent to Zhu Houxi.

They praised the new law, shouted the grace of heaven, and said that Zhu Houxi was as if Yao Shun was alive.

With the three of them taking the lead, a large number of imperial party officials followed the book, especially some young Qing officials, who had not had time to enjoy much of the benefits of contribution, and it was the most important thing to get more allowances and live a little easier in the capital.

What's more, if you can get the allowance openly, why bother to evade taxes, it doesn't make sense!

How do these young people know how much property there is in the homes of those high-ranking officials, and how much profit they can make every year...... Wang Yue invisibly gave those old ministers another hard stab!

It's just that that's not enough,

Zhang Xuan smiled and found Yang Dan, "Yang Tianguan, this pavilion has told you that I want to go to the table together, thank you for your grace, I have written it all, and your joint name is enough!" ”

Zhang Xuan didn't care about Yang Dan's pale face at all, and directly threw the thanksgiving table in front of him...... If you have the ability, you won't write!
