Chapter 556: The Dust Has Settled

Wei Zheng couldn't answer, in fact, he didn't know anything about farming, and it was difficult to find loopholes.

“…… The so-called more is just one percent more. Twenty percent of the rent, there is no such landlord in the world. Public grain is not given for free, the court has to spend money, which cannot be counted in the rent. Eldest Sun Chong looked at Wei Zheng's expression, smiled, and said: "Don't hide it, this article set by the teacher is exactly for the gate valve clan, and the gate valve clan who has the opportunity to contract land in the future will have to pay two percent more taxes and thirty percent more public grain than before." ”

Although Wei Zheng didn't understand farming, he could calculate the account. On the bright side, the gate valve has to pay an extra 20% of the rent for the extra land every year, but in fact, there is still 30% of the public grain, which is no longer under their control. That is to say, even if the price of grain is bullish, they will not be able to keep this thirty percent of the grain, because they have to pay public grain and send it to Changping to be controlled by the imperial court.

Moreover, even so, according to Li Mu's design, it is unknown whether the gate valve can be 'contracted' to their existing fields. It's really a desperate plan!

Wei Zheng gritted his teeth and said, "If you do it so desperately, aren't you afraid of local riots?" ”

The eldest grandson said indifferently: "What kind of riot? I don't understand what Wei Gong said. The teacher said that you should believe in Your Majesty, think about the imperial court, and believe in the millions of male soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. We can use the taxes we get to raise soldiers in order to defend the country and stabilize the territory. Any riot, in front of the invincible iron armor of the Tang Dynasty, must be like a local chicken and a dog, not worth it. ”

"You have to know that most of the people who farm the land now are the local gate lords, not ordinary people, if they lose too much, they simply don't plant, is he Li Mu able to plant this million hectares of land, or can you and me?"

"The teacher has another way!" The eldest grandson Chong said more and more confidently, he had heard that Wei Zheng was able to speak well before, and he really exchanged hands, he found that the pressure brought to him by Wei Zheng was far less than that brought to him by Li Mu, he could face Li Mu without stammering, and he could talk eloquently when facing Wei Zheng: "The teacher once said that as long as His Majesty's confidence is firm, he has a hundred ways to solve this problem, although there are difficulties, but no matter what, he cannot compromise, if His Majesty wants to compromise, he will ignore it all, and the new policy will not be implemented at all." ”

Li Shimin frowned and said, "Did he really say that in private?" ”

The eldest grandson nodded and said, "The teacher said so, because this is the key, if Your Majesty compromises, it will fall short over time." ”

"This bastard boy!" Li Shimin snorted and said, "Then tell me first, how does he plan to solve this problem?" ”

For example, he heard that there is very little land suitable for cultivation in Longyou, and many people have to live by grazing, if the land is given to them to plant, fertile land, I believe that many people will be able to attract many people to migrate to the past, set up farms, and specialize in farming. If there are local people who disobey the court and secretly cause trouble, it will be easy to do. You can send a group of men and horses to accompany you, camp the fields on the spot, and take care of the migrating people by the way. It can also allow the people to spontaneously organize young and strong people to protect the fields, and the Longyou people deal with the Turks and Hu people all the year round, and they will not suffer losses. After three or five years, these uncooperative people want to farm, and I am afraid that there will be no land left for them. ”

Hearing this, the eldest grandson Wuji and other people from noble backgrounds were immediately happy. If this is the case, the pattern of five surnames and seven hopes will be changed, and the nobles who have obtained the land will definitely not let go of this opportunity to strengthen their families. The reason why the gate valve is prosperous is because it is rooted in the land, and what the nobles lack is the land. For the sake of land, these military aristocrats did not hesitate to fight.

The officials from the Shandong Shi clan were all pale. They were conquered by Li Tang, who was born as a military aristocrat in Longyou, and they knew in their hearts that they would definitely not be able to defeat them, and they couldn't beat them back then, let alone think about it now. The shadow of war has not yet dissipated, and will it be fought again? Don't try it!

Wei Zheng pursed his lips and couldn't speak, he thought that the eldest grandson would not be his opponent when he rushed out of the formation, but he now understood that it didn't matter who came out of the formation, but Li Mu had already calculated this matter to the bones, even if it was a seven-year-old Mengtong, as long as he memorized what he taught, he would be able to fight the group of Confucians without falling behind.

Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng and was in a good mood. But just like Li Mu said at the banquet in the valley, the imperial technique lies in balance. Now that Wei Zheng has lost the upper hand, and the eldest grandson Chong has won a big victory, Li Shimin can't be completely unscrupulous, and knocks at the right time: "Chong'er, your words are reckless." Whether it is the clan of the gate lords or ordinary people, they are all good people of mine, and as long as there is no dissent, I love them as one. I believe that the gates will forgive me for my painstaking efforts and support my new policy just as I can forgive them for their assassination. After a pause, he asked again, "Wei Aiqing, what do you say?" ”

Wei Zheng's cheeks twitched, and he said, "The minister, the minister's thoughts, are the same as Your Majesty's. ”

"Hahaha......" Li Shimin laughed and said, "Okay, the discussion is here, Chong'er, you present the fold, and I will take a closer look." Many detailed terms still have to be negotiated slowly. Father-in-law Gao presented the fold, Li Shimin flipped through it, saw a few names at the check-in office, and asked: "Is this fold really written by a few of you?" Are they all from Datang Technical School? ”

"Yes, it was written under the guidance of my teacher."

"What a teacher who never leaves you!" Li Shimin smiled and said: "Li Mukou doesn't matter if he speaks wildly, the facts are here, no matter how he teaches, the students he teaches are indeed talents, I am very pleased." As soon as the conversation changed, Li Shimin said again: "This matter will be discussed tomorrow, is there anything else to discuss?" ”

"Ministers, ministers have their own music."

Li Shimin looked over, it was still the green robe at the entrance of the hall, Li Shimin frowned slightly, and said, "Which one is Qing, stand up and speak." ”

Xu Ji took a deep breath and stood out of the queue, and when everyone saw that it was a green robe, they knew in their hearts that it must be someone from the Internal Affairs Office again.

"Chen Xu Ji, served as the director of the Sixth Product Division of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Ordered to deal with matters concerning Turkic trade and trade, here is the statute agreed upon by the Industrial and Commercial Bureau on this matter, and I invite your Majesty to read it. ”

Father-in-law Gao went to take the fold, Li Shimin couldn't help frowning, complaining while flipping, and said, "Li Mu doesn't do anything now?" Why did I give him one thing, and he shirked one thing, it was too unusual-" Halfway through speaking, suddenly Li Shimin saw the content of the excerpt and closed his mouth, until after reading it, he handed the excerpt to Gonggong Gao and said, "Take it and save it, and make an order." If you have nothing to do, go and take a look at this charter, if I remember correctly, the departments of this internal affairs office have just been established for less than a month, look at what people have come up with! Three provinces and six departments, I am ashamed of you! ”

"Retreat!"
