The cleaning work is basically completed, and the first bird that dares to make a mess has also been broken, and it is time to move on to the next step.

Industrial and commercial matters, because they have long been familiar with the way, as early as the cleaning has been done at the same time, all aspects of cooperation are not bad, high pragmatism does not have to worry too much, at least do not have to personally run to every little thing to understand.

But agriculture is different, which is basically a new subject for the high pragmatism of this life, but it is a very important topic - no less important than industry and commerce!

Therefore, he had to ask in person, and sometimes even had to consult with someone.

It's a pity that there aren't many people who can discuss, because what he wants to do is a bit weird, and even Ruan Bingqian, who is definitely knowledgeable in Annan, not only hesitated a little after hearing this, but also thought about it carefully for a long time before saying to him: "Forgive the old man for being dull...... Is Gao Longwen's move to 'build Huangzhuang' for Jinghua Group in Annan? ”

Gao was stunned: How is it to build Huangzhuang? My agricultural system was born out of the contract responsibility system of joint production that I am most familiar with!

Ruan Binglian saw that Gao was pragmatic and frowned, thinking that he didn't understand enough, so he continued: "Gao Longwen, you see, the imperial village of the Ming Dynasty, as far as the old man knows, is one field and two taxes, which requires both the country's taxes and the royal family's tribute, so in the first year of Jiajing, Wang Lin of the imperial history and Wang Huai, the governor of Anlu Prefecture, once said: 'Check the tax of Zhuangtian eight points of silver mu, three times the people's land', and the eunuchs and others in charge of the village are even more ...... bad things."

"Ruan, wait a minute." Gao Pragmatic interrupted: "Old Ruan, are you worried that these fields confiscated by Jinghua will make the farmers bear excessive taxes after the implementation of my joint production contract system, so that they are desolate and helpless?" ”

"Wouldn't it?" Ruan Bingqian said worriedly: "Gao Longwen, your system is first built on the basis of lump sum and production, in other words: no matter what kind of farming they are doing, the taxes of the Dutong Division must be paid on time and in accordance with the amount, and the taxes collected by Jinghua Group - oh, you call it a commission here, and you must also pay it on time and in accordance with the amount, isn't this just a double payment?" ”

Gao pragmatic smiled: "However, I have no one here to impose on them the taxes of the 'empty land', the 'fake land' and the land that is obviously occupied by some powerful people that should not be borne by them. ”

He tapped the manuscript on the table with his finger and said with a smile: "Jinghua Group has a financial department, an audit department, and a supervision department. At the same time, every year, where more fields are cultivated and where fields are abandoned, these changes must also be recorded.

In addition, I can also answer the question of 'managing the village' you said: Jinghua Group only collects taxes, but does not send people to manage the village here, and every 'village' in your mouth, they will elect a person with virtue to serve as the old man of the village, responsible for the affairs of the village in ordinary times.

Under the supervision of the 'election supervision team' dispatched by Jinghua, the Zhuang people will hold a secret ballot to elect the new Zhuang Lao, and they will also cast a 'resignation evaluation vote' for the previous Zhuang Lao to determine whether the previous Zhuang Lao has been conscientious and impartial in his three-year term. If there is any failure to do its best and injustice, Jinghua will conduct an investigation and then deal with it as appropriate and in accordance with the law. ”

Although he said that there is a law, but there is no chūtái in this law, and he knows that he can't make a decision on this specific matter, but only after the system has been implemented for a period of time, and various problems are exposed, and then he will gather more people to discuss according to the feedback below, and he intends to make a decision only at the end.

Ruan Bingqian was stunned, hesitated for a moment, and asked: "It sounds like this is not much different from the actual situation of the people of the Ming Dynasty, but there are three more differences: first, Zhuang Lao has a term of office; The second is that Zhuang Lao must first win the trust of Zhuang Min, and when he leaves office, he must report to Zhuang Min; Third, Jinghua participated in the assessment of Zhuang Laozhi...... That's what it means, right? ”

It seems that Ruan Bingqian regarded Zhuang Lao as the squire of the Ming Dynasty, but fortunately, he still found the difference between Zhuang Lao and the squire.

The reason why a squire is a squire is because of his family background, status, and wealth, while Zhuang Lao is not, if he wants to become a Zhuang Lao, his family background, status, and wealth sound useless, and only by convincing the Zhuang people can he succeed.

In fact, this is the grassroots election system, but high pragmatism will only make this kind of election system exist at the grassroots level, because people in this era have no sources of information, and the people who can usually deal with them are actually so small in a range, and they may be able to distinguish who is good and who is bad when they elect a village head, after all, they meet every day.

But suppose that if they are asked to choose a county order, they may not even know all the candidates, so what is the point of choosing? It's not according to the habit of the Chinese, whether it's good or bad, just choose a fellow countryman - after all, everyone knows that even those who are officials are much better for their hometown than outsiders.

In this case, the election will become a fight for the population of the hometown, and it will be meaningless. Therefore, in this grassroots election conducted by Gao Pragmatic, he will only let it stay at the grassroots level, that is, at the level of villages, villages, villages, and villages.

"These three are enough." Gao pragmatically said: "In fact, as long as there is no elite in the middle, it is not much to pay two taxes...... Now the Annan Metropolitan Department is also levied according to the land endowment of the Ming Dynasty, and the Tian endowment of the Ming Dynasty is extremely low, and the Taizu paid two to four buckets per mu, and now it has been reduced to a little more than one bucket, which is almost nothing. ”

Bucket is a volume unit, different rice, there will be differences in weight, but roughly should be about 12-15 catties in later generations, and 15 catties of tax per mu of land is paid, which is the lowest point of agricultural tax in Chinese history, and no one should say that it is high.

Ruan Bingqian thought for a while, and then asked, "So, how much does Jinghua collect?" ”

Gao pragmatic said lightly: "Jinghua harvests ten buckets of one acre of land. ”

Ruan Bingqian was suddenly taken aback: "How can it be so high?" ”

Gao pragmatic smiled with a faint disdain: "The rice fields in Suzhou have a yield of about 650 catties per mu, while Annan has abundant water power, fertile land, and more sunshine than Suzhou, and the yield per mu will not be lower than this amount - if it is low, it means that the fields are not well cared for." Jinghua collects ten buckets, and the capital division collects one bucket, but only eleven buckets, at most one hundred and sixty-five catties, and the tenants can leave nearly five hundred catties...... Isn't that enough? ”

Gao pragmatic data is that when he was studying a class about the merits of Old Man Yuan in the party school, he saw Mr. Min Zongdian of the Chinese Agricultural Heritage Research Office publish a paper "Discussion on the yield of rice per mu in the Taihu Lake area during the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties", which calculated the average yield per mu of the Taihu Lake basin in the Tang, Song, Ming and Qing dynasties: the yield per mu in the Tang Dynasty was 138 kg; The yield per mu in the Song Dynasty was 225 kg; The yield per mu in the Ming Dynasty was 333 kg; The Qing Dynasty yielded 278 kilograms per mu.

Compared with the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River Plain, the Honghe Plain in Annan is not lagging behind in rice planting, and the rice seed is also Zhancheng rice, and there is no reason for the yield per mu to be lower than that of Daming, so this levy ratio is really not high.

Ruan Bingqian coughed dryly and said with a forced smile: "This ...... Self-collection of taxes, rarely so high......"

Gao pragmatic waved his hand slightly, and said lightly: "That's because since I started, I can't get rid of the elite class and profit from it." My Jinghua is different, Jinghua does not send people to manage the Grange, and the people sent to collect it have nothing to do with the income of these fields, so that the tenants of the Grange have no other burden except to pay eleven buckets of rice per acre of land—or, Ruan Lao thinks that someone dares to beat my Jinghua Grange's idea? ”

Ruan Bingqian's face immediately changed, and he waved his hand again and again: "There is no reason for this, there is no reason for this!" ”
