Chapter 63: Collapse
It's just a pity that many things, people in this era, may not be able to understand.
Zhang Yue also knows that what commodity economy and capital market are talking to others about now must be playing the piano to the cow.
Therefore, he thought for a while and asked, "Brother Wang, do you know what are the main parts of the country's fiscal and tax revenue?" ”
"Jin has heard of it...... Liu Jin thought for a while and replied: "It should be a ...... of land tax, tax, money, salt and iron and sea tax."
"Among them, the land tax accounts for one, the tax accounts for three, the money accounts for two, the salt and iron account for three, and the sea tax accounts for one ......."
This is the fiscal and taxation pattern that has been formed since the sixth year of Yuanjiao.
"If you remove the money, salt, iron, and sea taxes, how much revenue will the state have?" Zhang Yue asked with a smile.
"Forty percent?" Liu Jin's eyebrows jumped, and he was terrified.
"That's right......" Zhang Yue sighed: "If there is no benefit from salt and iron, industry and commerce, and sea fish, the burden on the people will be increased, how much will it be aggravated?" ”
"I'm afraid it's a must, the field tax has to go back to the fifteen taxes of the Qin Dynasty, or even ten taxes and five taxes!"
"As for the money for the conscription, it must be at least tripled......"
"Brother Wang thinks that if the burden of the people is increased, will they be able to live?"
"Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, Yin Jian is not far away, Brother Wang thinks that the people of today are more patient than the people of the Qin Dynasty?"
The answer is......
The prince will have a kind of Xiangning!
Chinese peasants, since ancient times, have been, whoever makes them unable to live, they will let whoever cannot live!
Even airplanes, tanks, and artillery could not stop the peasants from rising up and resisting.
With this broken copper and iron of the Liu family, can you stop the peasants who have no way to live from rising up?
Joke!
The corpse of the Qin Empire can be placed wherever it is, in the Lishan Mountain, in the ruins south of Chang'an City.
Anyone can take a look and see it.
Liu Jin was silent.
He remembered the twelve golden figures he saw in front of Changle Palace.
A golden figure minted by Qin Shi Huang.
The Jin people are tall and mighty, and the Jin people have the inscription made by Li Si and written by Meng Tian, saying: The emperor was twenty-six years old, and he was the first to conquer the world, and the princes were changed to counties, a law, and the same measurement.
Just looking at the inscription, the momentum of the Qin Empire swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger has already rushed to the face.
However, only a few years after the Jin people were minted, the Qin Empire was wiped out.
In the past, Liu Jin didn't have any feelings about these golden people, he only thought it was a little funny.
But now, there was a frost in his heart.
He finally understood why Emperor Gao and the previous emperors would drag the twelve golden figures out of the ruins of Afang Palace and stand under the north gate of Changle Palace.
It is to let an unscrupulous descendant like him take a good look at the corpse of the Qin people!
That's the Twelve, corpses that never decay and fade.
It is the best educational specimen!
It's just that......
Liu Jin raised his head and asked a little confused: "Do you want to sit back and watch Sang Hongyang use the public power of the country to compete with the people for profit?" ”
The stories and things that the teachers had told him were now coming back to his mind one by one.
He said excitedly: "Sang Hongyang used the benefits of salt and iron to seize the interests of the people, and cleverly set up a name to collect money, wantonly create unjust cases, and take advantage of the ...... I have heard that Sang Hong sheep is in the land of Qilu, on the shore of the sea, to be a sea official, collect taxes on sea fish, and even catch them in boats, so that the sea fish do not come out ......" (Note)
This is an ironclad evidence that his teacher told him about Sang Hongyang's conviction in heaven!
In order to ask for money, this god-damn courtier was so shameless that he organized a fleet of ships and government officials to carry out official fishing on the Qilu seashore.
The sea was once rich, but now it is barren.
The fishermen along the coast all cried and mourned.
Their livelihood, deprived of it!
And this is the evidence that Sang Hongyang was convicted by heaven!
If it weren't for the courtiers, the heavens would be furious, how could the sea fish hide?
So, please cook the mulberry lamb, and the fish will surely reappear on the seashore with joy!
Hundreds of thousands of fishermen will rediscover the fish they depend on for their livelihoods!
Zhang Yue listened, but it was a flute.
This was something he had never known before.
This made him have a new understanding of Sang Hongyang's feelings.
Such an official, in Zhang Yue's eyes, let alone in this pre-Yuan feudal society.
Even in the next life, I am afraid that it will be able to mix well.
People's subjective initiative is simply invincible!
If you think about it, a high-ranking official of a country can not only put down the shelves, but also bring the officials and officials to openly sell and sell products in the market.
It can also mobilize all its capabilities, create opportunities, and desperately increase the country's revenue.
If none of these officials can be promoted, who will?
It's Secretary Dakang, I'm afraid it's just that.
"Captain Zhisu, have you gone fishing in the sea?" Zhang Yue pursed his lips, then turned his head to the side, and said to Yuan Chang: "Yuan Gongzi, I heard that Uncle Yuan has an old relationship with Zhisu Duwei?" ”
Yuan Chang immediately jumped up and said with a smile: "Teacher, did you ask me?" Yes, my father is very familiar with the governor of Zhisu...... What, the teacher has something to order? ”
When Zhang Yue heard this, his face twitched a little, and he had no choice but to deal with this shameless man.
I could only pretend not to hear the other party's honorific title, and said: "Please ask Yuan Gongzi to bring a word to Sang Duwei for me, and just say-The fish of Qilu, where are there many of the four counties of North Korea?" Please send a boat to the seashore of the four counties of North Korea to fish, and you will get something! ”
"Well......" Yuan Chang paused, and then bowed: "Follow the teacher's orders, the teacher's words, the disciple must bring it!" ”
Then, Zhang Yuecai turned around and said to Liu Jin: "The fish don't come out, just change places......"
"The ocean is boundless, and there are as many fish as stars, and the fish on the Qilu coast may have been caught too much, so they have become scarce...... Just like this wild animal in the mountains, it is a truth that if there are many hunters, they will become extinct......"
Liu Jin listened, but looked at Zhang Yue dumbfounded.
The people of the world, when they mentioned that Sang Hong sheep was fishing in Qilu and made the sea fish extinct, they either scolded or beat their chests.
Like Zhang Zizhong in front of him, he neither scolded nor regretted, but proposed to let Sang Hongyang change places to fish, this is the first time Liu Jin has seen it.
Zhang Yue smiled and said to him, "Brother Wang thinks it's inappropriate? ”
"Then ...... the other way"
"Is Brother Wang willing to go to the sea to fish for 1 million stones to subsidize the state, or is he willing to give the people another 20 yuan?"
This multiple-choice question is not difficult to do.
"I went to the sea to fish for a million ......stones," Liu Jin said in a low voice.
As soon as this answer came out, Liu Jin felt that his worldview was completely collapsing.
The world that his teachers, who had shaped him, was collapsing.
At the same time, a new world is taking shape.
Liu Jin is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very smart.
When Zhang Yue asked that question, he immediately thought of other things and other questions.
In the same way, if he is asked to do multiple-choice questions.
Between Sang Hong Yang buying and selling salt and iron and raising taxes on the people, he could only choose to let Sang Hong Yang do salt and iron trading.
Because the people are overwhelmed!
