1.17 Thin Tax
Thousands of miles of green seedlings, clear water like dyeing.
Chen Yiyan said: "This season's rice cropping, if there is no accident, when the new grain is 400 million stones, the field can be harvested 11.25 million stones." Among them, tens of millions of acres of official land can obtain 60 million stones from the new valley. The two items are added together, and the total amount is stored: 71,250,000 stones. â
The Manchu Dynasty was civil and military, and each was happy.
Liu Bei asked: "There are so many new additions this season. â
The order replied: "There are 9 million people in the country, and because of the Lord's public order, the households are divided into different households, and the number of households has been reduced to eight." More than 1.12 million households. The new fields opened last year were all distributed to new households at the beginning of the year. Therefore, the total grain is especially high. â
Liu Bei asked again: "How much is the tax collected?" â
The above decree is like a number of family treasures: "household endowment (200 yuan), oral endowment (23 yuan), calculation (120 yuan, Jia people and slaves and maids double calculation (240 money), women over the age of fifteen to thirty unmarried five counts (600 money)), more endowment (300 yuan), labor tax (craftsman tax, 1%), city rent (based on the turnover as the tax basis, 2%), customs duty (10%, tax exemption for goods in the Western Regions and foreign regions), squandering tax (feed, 55 yuan/hectare), and money (property tax levied on merchants, 20 yuan for every goods worth 2,000 yuan). , with a tax rate of 1%. This is the basic tax rate, which varies from industry to industry. The tax rate for handicraftsmen is 0.5%, while the tax rate for chariots and merchants is 2%, and the rest are 1%), etc., are not counted. The salt tax collected by 1.5 million mu of salt fields alone is enough for 400 million thistles. â
As soon as these words came out, the whole house exclaimed.
Bohai beach mudflats, not a single grass grows. In this barren land, the lord turned harm into profit, and opened up 400 million!
Liu Ye of the Great Summer Order, his contribution is indispensable. The thistle king happily gave him the jade with him. It is the envy of hundreds of officials.
Wang Fu Huang Zhong asked with a smile: "If you increase taxes, how much money will you get?" â
The above order came prepared: "The household endowment is more than 225 million yuan (directly exported to the feudal monarchs and princes, belonging to the royal finances, which is not included in the national financial revenue, but since the knighthood, the king of this is confiscated for public use, and no penny has been taken); 756 million; oral endowment of 62,100,000; 1.89 billion; Labor taxes, city rents, customs duties, and taxes have not yet been counted. â
Only the household endowment, the calculation endowment, the oral endowment, and the more endowment, four items, the annual income is nearly 2 billion.
The finances of the country of Ji are not only good. Hundreds of officials celebrated.
The three largest expenditures of the Ji State: 100,000 soldiers and 700 million military funds; More than 300 city officials, large and small, 700 million food; 9 million people, 567 million contributions, just the same as the household endowment, the calculation endowment, the oral endowment, and the four taxes.
And so. The salt tax of 400 million thistles, the tax on foreign processing (121 million), the municipal rent (125 million), the customs duty (312.5 million), and the tax on grain are the fiscal surplus. As a rough estimate, more than a billion thistle dollars.
It is important to know that this is still a "light tax". One can imagine how rich the people are. The country of thistle is prosperous. The proportion of the business population is as high as 10% (10%). The money was collected in 1.25 billion. In other words, the average assets of the businessman's home are as high as one million.
The royal industry does not count. Of course, the thistle does not have to pay taxes. Jiguo's fiscal surplus this year is 2.2 billion.
The king of this tle hides the wealth of the people, and hides the soldiers of the people. It is in response to the sentence of later generations, "Build high walls, accumulate grain, and slow down to become kings".
The surplus of 2.2 billion dollars is enough to recruit another 300,000 soldiers.
It is absolutely not advisable to use military force. Undesirable......
The Western Regions Protectorate, the Longyou Prison Camp, and the overseas ports have not yet been counted.
Farming is really terrible. Once completed, it is unbeatable. It's like a wild ball boxing: level 1 to 9, neither good to see nor useful; Once you have practiced level 10, you will "have nothing difficult in the world, only afraid of wild ball boxing!" â
If the king of this is ruthless, the country of this can raise 400,000 troops. Add Gaoche, Xianbei, Wuhuan, Qianghu, Southern Xiongnu, Buyeo, Wofu, Yamatai, and the Western Regions Alliance, and you can easily form a million-strong army. The accumulated grain and grass is enough for ten years.
Steady.
What? is such a strong country, there are only 1,000 people in the harem, and the concubines are less than 400?
It's true, and the Lord of the world is also!
Notice. Shule usurped the throne of King Hede, the lord of the small country of Yuer in the Western Regions, and there were also 3,000 beauties in the harem.
The lord of the first male domain in the world, the harem is less than four hundred. Seriously, it's undignified.
Whenever the lord of the Western Regions mentioned this matter, King Ji smiled and said: There are three hundred heirs.
So, there was no such thing!
There are 3,000 beauties, and there are only a handful of children. Numerous productive vacancies. What a tyrannical thing. The wise do not do it.
Let's look at the productivity of the Thistle Queen's Harem, running at full capacity.
In a word, the relations of production must be adapted to the productive forces.
Great earthquake Guancheng, Longyou Embassy.
Achillia, the priestess of the Holy Fire, finally meets her best friend, the Roman Empress Rucira, in the far east.
Three days ago, the Roman Empress Rukira, escorted all the way by the convoy of the Western Regions Protectorate, arrived safely at the Great Earthquake Pass. When attending the welcome dinner held by Concubine Zhong Cunhui, she had a surprise encounter with Achillia, the priestess of the Holy Fire. Only then did Rukira learn that the owner of the distant oasis, Lord Protector, had been entrusted by Achilla to rescue her.
The banquet was a Roman affair organized by Achilla. Lukira was greatly moved.
During the banquet, Concubine Hui asked with a smile: "I don't know what the queen is going to do?" â
Ruqila replied abruptly: "I wish to live in the east and live this life." â
Achillia said, "Why don't you borrow 100,000 soldiers from Lord Protector to help you regain the throne." â
Lu Qila remained silent: "Rome and the Han Dynasty are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers. How can 100,000 horses pass through Kushan, Anxi and other powerful countries along the way and arrive in Rome. â
Achillia also said, "Lord Protector has a good relationship with Kushan, Anxi, and other countries. Why don't you form a coalition army for the western expedition? â
Ruqila was unmoved: "This matter, we will discuss it later." â
Concubine Hui comprehended: "The great cause of restoring the country needs to be considered in the long run." â
The dinner conversation three days ago is still fresh in my memory.
Three days have passed. Seeing that Ruqila was exhausted, Achilla couldn't help but ask: "Concubine Hui is the mistress of this city." Such a great opportunity, why miss it. â
With no outsiders present, Rukira broke her heart: "Achillia, you arrived at Seris before me. Tell me how different it is from Rome to the Han people's country. â
Achilla blurted out, "There are no slaves. â
"Yes, there are no slaves." Rucira's eyes were full of fear: "Can you imagine what would have become of Rome without slaves?" â
Achilla blurted out, "Slaves are the cornerstone of everything in Rome." If slaves are lost, the freedmen lose supplies, the army loses logistics, the town hall loses taxes, and the senate loses power. The whole of Rome was ruined. â
"Lord Togo has purchased a large number of slaves from the countries of Wusun, Kushan, and Anxi, several times before and after. and free them all as freemen. If this army arrives in Rome. What about the situation. â
"Do you mean to recruit troops from the 'slave freedmen' who live in the oasis?" Achilla asked.
"Looking at Seris, is there anyone who knows Rome better than this group of freemen?" Rukira asked rhetorically.
"Oh my God......" After a moment of contemplation, Achilla finally realized: "That will be a 'Spartacus' that will destroy Rome!" â
Spartacus (ÎŁÏ?ÏÏαÎșÎż?), Roman Thracian gladiator, slave, and military strategist, led the Spartacus revolt against Roman rule in 73 BC along with the Gauls Cress, Enomayi, and Ganix.
Ruqila bowed her head slightly: "So, no matter what, we can't let the coalition army of the Han Dynasty reach Rome." â
