Chapter 1351 Robbery

After the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, in the fourth year of Gaozu Wude and the sixteenth year of Taizong Zhenguan, they all issued edicts to check the household registration.

After Gaozong and Wu Zetian, land was annexed and developed, and the peasants' land was decreasing day by day, and they could not afford to pay taxes and forced labor, so they were forced to abandon their homes and leave their hometowns.

In particular, in Wu Zetian's later years, the heavy burden of servitude forced a large number of peasants to flee, and a situation of "more than half of the people in the world escaped".

In view of such a grim situation, Wu Zetian sent ten envoys to flee from the world.

It's all petty.

The largest bracket in the Tang Dynasty was completed during the reign of Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty.

In the early years of the new century, the situation of peasants fleeing continued to develop, some of them fled to the mountains and forests or to cultivate land in other places, and some fled to the cities to serve as employees.

More of them became tenants and servants hidden by the landlords, and even in the ranks of the fugitives, some new landlords were born.

and the creation of false orders and the use of erotic servants to evade servitude.

In order to increase the country's financial income and expand the sources of conscription and military service, in the ninth year of Kaiyuan, Yu Wenrong suggested that the pseudo-use of sexual service should be checked and the fugitive households should be searched.

The first plan was not too successful, and the Tang government ordered that the prefecture and county escape households should surrender within 100 days, and asked Yuwen Rong to push the hook.

Because the fugitive peasants could only be "attached to their hometowns" by order of approval, and the rest had to be "returned to their hometowns," they were resisted by the peasants.

So in the twelfth year of Kaiyuan, Xuanzong clearly changed the plan in the "Edict on Persuading the Peasant Envoy to Pacify the Hukou": "First escape, and allow yourself to surrender." If you can serve the acres of ridges and work hard, the idle fields where you are located are persuaded to reclaim. ”

Farmers are allowed to attach their nationality in their localities and no longer return to their hometowns.

It was Yu Wenrong who raised the matter, and persuaded the 29 agricultural judges and the imperial history to be distributed throughout the country, including fugitives and foreign fields, and at the same time, exempted the newly attached customers from rent and conscription for six years, and only collected light taxes.

In just three years, the Tang government expanded the number of more than 800,000 households, millions of people, and increased the imperial court tax revenue by more than 4 million, which directly promoted the arrival of the prosperous era of the Kaiyuan Dynasty.

The key to the success or failure of several household expansions lies in the six-year stimulus of "light taxes" and the temptation of "narrow households" to become "wide households".

And the development of the Great Song Dynasty to this day, such a problem has also arisen.

For example, in Hebei, there have been repeated disasters and injuries, so there are slippery officials who report their death and hide the displaced people, and embezzle taxes.

When Su You and Han Chunyan were studying the Hebei problem, they keenly discovered that since the recovery of Hebei began to recover in the Xining period, the cultivated land has almost doubled, but the population has still not increased at all.

So Su You wrote to Zhao Xuan, Your Majesty is amazing! The people of Hebei have all used oxen to plough luxuriously, replaced manpower, doubled production efficiency, and solved the big problem of mismatch between land growth and population growth. I am really happy for Your Majesty.

Zhao Ji was furious and ordered Wang Kechen to investigate the matter thoroughly and take down a large group of officials.

The problem of hidden households in the Great Song Dynasty has a special name, called "strange name".

Including several situations such as coercion under false names, hijacking households under false names, consignment property under false names, and being coerced by false names.

False name coercion means that free people who own cultivated land take refuge in the name of "official households" and use the name of tenant households, but in fact the land deeds are in their own hands, and they discuss the distribution of interests with the official households, and everyone gets benefits.

The reason for this problem is that the Great Song Dynasty levied too many miscellaneous taxes and the poor distribution of science and technology was too heavy.

Although the law stipulates that the number of acres of official households is limited, and more than part of them are taxed according to the regulations, but in addition to taxes, the Great Song Dynasty also paid taxes and taxes, which was actually more serious than the problem of taxation.

Ke is the government's forced purchase, and sometimes even does not pay, called "baike".

Not to mention forced labor, repairing canals, building roads and transporting grain are all counted.

There were even cases of those who went to serve directly and forcibly sent to the battlefield, and Sima Guang once denounced this matter to the imperial court.

Official households are completely exempt from these, and in addition, they are exempt from many names such as expenditure transfer and conversion, so they can play the role of "shelter".

Fraudulent hijacking of households is to change from one family to many households through the method of changing one family to many households.

Because the Great Song Dynasty protected and supported tenants and lower-class households, they did not need to pay taxes and serve, so many families who should pay taxes used this method to exploit loopholes.

The false name is for another type of tax - Ding tax.

The Song Dynasty stipulated that men from 20 to 60 were Ding, and all kinds of labor were assessed according to Ding, and there was also a tax on Ding in the south.

At the same time, the laws of the Song Dynasty also stipulate that the family of Shan Ding can be exempted from these, so the Dotten family disguises itself as a single family, or entrusts himself as a tenant of a wealthy family, or does not wrap his head at the age of 30 and pretends to be less than 20, which is a way.

These problems were not basically solved until the Qing Dynasty, and the policies included the integrated payment of grain by the gentry, a whip law, and the apportionment of the land into the mu.

However, Su You didn't dare to let Da Song play like this immediately, because every law has the background of the times in which it was produced.

For example, the premise of apportionment into the mu is the large-scale use of currency, and the copper money must be implemented only after it is spread all over the city and countryside, otherwise it is the same as a whip system for converting silver, the common people have no silver in their hands, and in order to pay taxes, they have to exchange grain for copper money, and copper money for silver, and they are exchanged and exploited by the gentry twice more times for no reason.

What Su You can do is to write to Zhao Ji to encourage local officials to expand their households and reward them - expand 800 households and rise to the rank for half a year; 1,500 households, exempt from examination; 3,000 households, one year of grinding and grinding; 12,000 households, three years of grinding and grinding.

At the same time, these people are encouraged to move to Ningxia three roads - as long as they arrive in Ningxia, one ding can rent 40 acres of Huangzhuang, ten years of tax exemption, and the rent is two cents and five cents; Officials give farm tools, cattle and sheep; In addition, the most important one is to give local material incentives for transporting and expanding passengers.

There is another way, that is, any person without household registration, as long as he is in Ningxia No. 3 Road, can report to the local government for registration, apply for land, and become a household registration.

This is not only a reward, but also a coercion.

In the false name, by dividing the upper household into the lower household, Su You believes that this is just a reasonable tax avoidance, not a big crime.

But it's not that you can't help it, you like to change from the upper household to the lower household to evade taxes, right? Now we have a policy for the lower households – immigration.

So whether you want to choose tax evasion or immigration, you choose.

This article effectively avoids the occurrence of false name hijacking.

At the same time, it is also a beating on officials, and moving the lower households to produce and eat is a policy that the Great Song Dynasty has been piloting for a long time, and a set of models has been explored for so many years.

There are so many low-class households registered under the rule of noble officials, and when it comes to emigrating, you can't change these people to the court...... Hey, hey, hey......

Finally, I suggested that Zhao Ji, now that the Great Song Dynasty has entered a period of population gap, it is necessary to stimulate population growth, how to do it? The easiest way is to spread the land into acres.

Of course, it is definitely not possible to do this in the whole country at the beginning, so we can only start from the developed areas - Bianjing, Liangzhejiang, and Shuzhong.

Because of the commercial development of these three places, the Ding tax has been replaced by the commercial tax and is no longer an important local tax.

However, this will lead to a larger population in the three regions, which is already very dense, and the advantages of tax exemption for immigrants will become more prominent, which will lead more people to go to sparsely populated places to become "wide households".

Therefore, the land of Ningxia Sanlu has also been greatly discounted and allowed to be bought and sold publicly.

Social problems have always been complex, and they must be treated with traditional medical techniques.

If you just take a penicillin tablet, I am afraid that not only will it not cure the disease, but the condition will be more serious.

These issues are still being discussed in the court, but Su You no longer cares about them, pasting preferential measures everywhere on Ningxia Third Road, and advertising in "Shuzhong Business Daily", "Liangzhejiang Chao Daily", "Bianjing Business Daily", and "Times".

Zhao Ji also turned a blind eye, because these people went to Sanlu, which was to help him plough the land, so he did not support or oppose it, and let things develop naturally.

Shuzhong is the best place for the masses of Suyou, and it is also the area with the most serious land tension problem, and the economy has been booming for 30 years, although it has been diverted by the development of Zhejiang and Jinghu to some people, but now it has reached a tense level.

Therefore, this policy is quite popular in Shuzhong, and it is originally a matter of your affection, Sichuan officials expand their hidden households to earn a political achievement, and send them to Ningxia to earn another money, how happy and happy they are.

The enforcement of Bianjing City is a little worse, but for many proletarians in the city, the temptation is still very great.

However, the officials of Kaifeng Mansion did not make any money, because Zhao Ji mainly used this indicator to solve the problem of redundant troops in Bianjing, and the prices in Bianjing City were so high, Yiding's usual reward was not very attractive.

In Liangzhe Road, there was almost no response, but instead taught Wang Shao a good job.

What are you doing in Shaanxi, come to my South China Sea less, but isn't it fragrant three times a year? Besides, you can't get used to eating noodles over there, come to the South China Sea, come to the South China Sea, let's eat rice?

Whatever policy the Duke of Shu gives you, I will give you the same policy!

After Su You received the report from the palace, he was so angry that he scolded Wang Shao at Li Shunju for not being authentic, there are not many people in total, and he still wants to intercept my nonsense and rob my political achievements!
