Yun Hee, who temporarily pacified the ministers, continued his reforms. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Info Yunxi practiced the economic line of Guan Zhong, abolished the entry tax on 13 kinds of raw materials or daily necessities such as vegetables and timber, and also abolished some banknotes, reducing the burden on farmers or small businessmen who just do some small business.

However, those who did not have a permanent shop were still required to enter the city to sell their goods at designated markets, and unauthorized markets outside the city were also forbidden. Yunxi does not require much for commercial tax, but it must be able to receive a fixed amount in hand.

He is most concerned about tariffs. Compared with the domestic commercial tax, the tariff is really too easy to collect, even if the sea has only been opened for less than half a year in the 31st year of Hongwu, there is more than one million yuan of tax revenue; In the first year of Jianye, the total customs tax revenue exceeded 3 million yuan, which was comparable to the gold that Fang Mingqian brought back from Jinning.

Taking advantage of the propaganda of Guan Zhong, Yunxi officially implemented the differential tax system, raising the tariff on some luxury goods to 30%, and the price of other goods to 20%.

These products are carefully selected by Yunxi. The sales of goods with a 30% tariff will definitely not be greatly reduced because of these tariffs, and the same is true for those with a 20% tariff.

After that, Yunxi pushed the reform to the field. However, Yun Xi was still extremely cautious, and after selection, he chose Hangzhou as the place to imitate the Tianfu reform.

Hangzhou is a very economically developed city, similar to the capital, there is Yun Xi's more trusted minister Lian Zining as the political envoy of the Jiang Bu, Hangzhou is close to the capital, if there is a problem, Jin Yiwei can report at any time, so Yun Xi selected Hangzhou as the next Xu official - the pilot city of the police.

=============================================

Hangzhou, the political envoy of the Yamen.

Lian Zining put down Yunxi's holy decree and said happily: "I, Lian Zining, finally don't have to wait any longer. ”

The scribe on the side didn't know what was written on the holy decree, but he knew through what Lian Zining said and his expression that the content of the holy decree was a good thing for Lian Zining.

So he immediately smiled and said, "Congratulations to the little one." ”

Lian Zining smiled: "Do you know what is going on?" Congratulations to this official? ”

"Whatever it is, since the adults are so happy, then it must be a good thing." The scribe said.

"Whatever you say, yours." Lian Zining scolded with a smile. "But this time it's really good. His Majesty selected Hangzhou as a pilot city for reform. ”

"What reforms?" The scribe asked immediately.

Lian Zining glanced at him, although this scribe leaned over immediately after he became the political envoy of the Jiangbu, but Lian Zining knew that he was probably one of the richest families in Hangzhou.

However, this matter does not need to be hidden from the big family in Hangzhou City, and it can't be concealed for a few days. Lian Zining said: "Your Majesty's decree is to implement the police reform of the officials who were in the capital before Hangzhou in Hangzhou. ”

'What is a Clerk – Police Reform?' The scribe thought to himself. He didn't ask, because Lian Zining would never explain it to him.

The scribe was then sent out to work, and Lian Zining looked at his back and said, "I don't know if the family behind you is willing to cooperate with the imperial court." But even if you don't cooperate, it doesn't matter, Your Majesty's means, can't I use it? ”

"It's just," Lian Zining picked up the holy decree again, looking at the two names on it, "It's just that I have been out of the capital for less than half a year, and several new science and technology scholars in this section have entered Your Majesty's eyes, and these two people have also been sent by Your Majesty to assist me in reform." ”

Lian Zining actually welcomed someone to come down to assist in his reforms. He was in Hangzhou, and he could only know what was going on in the reform of the capital through the Di Bao and the letters of his friends, and he couldn't help but feel like he was looking at flowers in the fog, and he was afraid of failure, so he welcomed someone to assist him.

But he was worried about his own saints. A large number of new science and technology scholars entered the court, and there were six people who entered the inner court, which made him feel a crisis.

When this reform is completed, I will ask His Majesty to be transferred back to the capital, even if it is to respond to Tianfu Yin. Lian Zining thought.

……

In a large mansion in the city of Hangzhou, a middle-aged man of about 50 people Wen Yan said to the scribe, "I know. Your message this time is very important. Then he commanded his servants, "Take him to the account house and give him twenty taels of silver." ”

The scribe immediately knelt on the ground and said happily: "Thank you, master!" "My God, twenty taels of silver is enough to chew in Hangzhou City for a year.

When the servant led the scribe out, he said to a man of about thirty years old who was sitting in the seat next to him, "Runcheng, in your opinion, what should our family do?" ”

Runcheng thought for a while and said, "Father, according to my son, our family actually doesn't have much room for interference. ”

"Which of these officials has not accepted bribes? The imperial court has Jinyi Wei and Zhensi, as long as you want to check something, you can't find it? I guess it all depends on the mind of the political envoy, and he will leave which officials he wants to keep. Our family can be slightly influenced by the scribe, but my son thinks it won't be of much use. ”

"With disabled soldiers as policemen, our family can't get involved anymore. The army has always had no contact with the people, and no one in our family is an official in the army, so we can only watch. ”

"In your opinion, our family can only wait for change?" The middle-aged man asked.

"Father, son thinks that although we can't do anything about the police reform, we can make our shops in the city prepare in advance, and the big bones supported by our family can also hide in advance, so let's get them a household registration in Hangzhou City before the change, buy a house and settle down, and wait for the rumors to pass."

"Hehe," the middle-aged man stood up, "Runcheng, you still have too little knowledge." The big bones supported by our family can't be saved, so we should immediately send someone to destroy the documents related to our family, and then send someone to protect the big bone family. ”

"Do you think that when the change is about to begin, Lian Zining will not check the people who have changed their household registration during this time? At this time, it is useless to open an account. ”

"Besides, Your Majesty issued a decree last month to prohibit beggars in the city. Lian Zining did not announce it to the whole province and provincial capital before, probably waiting for today. What's the use of a few bosses without their beggars? Protecting Dagu's family is also to keep him from dying. ”

"Father, what should our family do?" Runcheng asked.

"Let the ambassadors of the city gates listen to us!"

"Ambassador?"

"It's an ambassador! My father had studied the changes in the capital before, and found that the only official who had not changed was the ambassador of the tax distribution department, and even if his officials were dismissed, the ambassador was retained. ”

"Huang Huai probably thought that an ambassador was of little use when none of his subordinates were cronies. Huang Huai's idea is also good, and a single ambassador is of little use in most cases. But in some cases, it's not for sure. ”
