The decree promulgated by Fa Zheng as soon as he took office was a pain that penetrated into the bone marrow for the family.

As long as you are not a fool, you know that as long as you do not encounter a catastrophic famine, every acre of land can provide a certain amount of food income for its owner every year, and it is a kind of property that can increase in value in an infinite cycle.

For the families of the two counties, this decree is really not as pleasant as directly sending troops to their homes and directly raiding their homes. This practice of Fazheng is not digging up the flesh of the families, but digging up their bone marrow.

For the merchants in the two counties, it is a feeling of pain and happiness.

Why do you feel this way?

The reason lies in one of the last two of the decrees.

All along, the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty have been emphasizing agriculture over commerce, which is undoubtedly the most correct decision for stabilizing the world that has just been pacified.

However, this kind of policy is very detrimental to the period of war, and when a dynasty develops into the middle and late stages.

In Sima Qian's "Historical Records", there is such a sentence in the biography of the goods colony: 'Zhou Shu said: "If the peasants do not come out, they will lack food, if they do not work, they will lack their work, if they do not produce the three treasures, and if they do not come out, they will have little wealth." "There is little money and the mountains are not clear. These four are the origin of food and clothing for the people.

The gist of this is that agriculture is undoubtedly the foundation, but the business of the four people has always complemented each other, and any link missing will have an impact on the other three people.

When the people live, the source of food and clothing cannot rely on agriculture alone, but requires the people of the four industries to cooperate with each other, so as to truly strengthen the country and enrich the people.

Later, Taishi Gong gave a very typical example to demonstrate his point of view, that is, when Jiang Taigong, the ancestor of the Qi State of the Jiang clan of the Western Zhou Dynasty, began to govern the Qi State, he took the measure of four industries at the same time, enriching the country and strengthening the people, defeating the surrounding barbarian countries, so that the Qi State was able to quickly stabilize.

At the beginning, Jiang Taigong's fief was not only a land of salt and brine, which was extremely unsuitable for vigorously developing agriculture, but also a peaceful place in Qi State, and there were so-called Dongyi tribes around it, which were always threatening the survival of Qi State.

In the new decree promulgated by the law, the last article is directly related to merchants.

The general content of the decree is as follows: Merchants in Jiujiang County and Lujiang County, subordinate counties, when doing business, are still required to pay one-tenth of the tax to the local government on the goods they carry.

However, the tax paid this time is a one-time payment, once the payment is completed, the local government county or county will issue a tax payment certificate to the businessman, as long as the tax payment certificate is held, the businessman can pass through any county under Liu Bei's rule at will, and there is no need to pay any taxes to other local governments under Liu Bei's rule.

After the commercial tax revenue came up, it had to be redistributed among the government.

Specifically, the commercial tax of a county is collected by the county, and the county is supervised by the five departments of the county. At the end of the year, when the counties and counties go to the state to govern, seventy percent of them will be escorted to the state by the magistrates, and they will be paid directly to the Changshi of Bei Jia or Liu Bei.

The remaining 30% is directly subsumed into the treasury of the local government.

After the sixty percent of the commercial taxes paid by the counties and counties to the other driving here, after summing up, thirty percent of them belonged to the government treasury, one layer belonged to the army, one percent belonged to Liu Bei's own private treasury, and Liu Bei himself put them at his disposal, and the last remaining one percent was redistributed to the counties.

According to the statistical results of each county and county, according to the amount of commercial tax paid by each county, the county will be rewarded with high commercial tax, and after it is issued, there is no need to put this heavy reward into the local government treasury, and it can be directly distributed by local officials and subordinate officials in various places.

The top three counties will receive the highest rewards.

Fazheng, or Jin Jue's initiative, is to encourage the local government to vigorously develop local industry and commerce.

If you want to vigorously develop, it is obviously not feasible to rely solely on letting merchants resell local products, and it is also necessary to vigorously develop local industries, such as the Huaihe salt industry, the silk weaving industry, and the agricultural tools unified by the government.

And the people at the bottom of the two counties who saw the notice were naturally very happy.

This time, Fazheng will distribute the collected land to the original people of the two counties free of charge in the form of tuntian, as well as the people of Xuzhou who are about to move to the two counties.

Specifically, every person who is willing to be a guest of Tuntian and accept the government's Tuntian can get a share of Tuntian, which is tentatively set at 50 mu per person. Jianghuai is not as good as Yizhou, where after several wars, even if Liu Bei has the ability to move all the people of Xuzhou, Taishan County, Lu State, and the southern part of Peiguo and Chen State to the four counties of Jianghuai, it cannot be compared with the total population of Yizhou in this time and space, except for Hanzhong County.

Therefore, when Jin Jue first sent himself and Wei Yan's guards to the counties to recruit soldiers with land, he also opened up fifty acres of land, but later, after recruiting enough soldiers, Jin Jue immediately ordered that when Yang Pei allocated land, all ordinary people who did not serve in the army could only get ten acres of land from the local government of Guanghan County and Shu County.

In the whole of Yizhou, all its wealth is concentrated in the three counties of Hanzhong County, Shu County and Guanghan County, so Jin Jue must first take care of the interests of the soldiers in his hands.

This also means that all the ordinary people who accepted the land became the tuntian guests under Liu Bei's rule, and they worked hard every year, cultivated the land, and had to pay five to sixty percent of the land tax to the government for the grain they harvested.

However, these five to sixty percent of the field endowment is not a floating field endowment, but a fixed field endowment.

The law is specifically pointing out in the notice that the tuntian distributed to the people, according to the fixed field endowment, each mu only needs to pay five to six buckets of grain to the government every year, if any tuntian customer is able to endure and can harvest four or five stones of grain per acre, then the final grain income that this person can get is three to four stones.

That is to say, if Liu Bei can really implement this policy well, in the end, the people who can really make a fortune under his rule are all ordinary people who are good at farming.

After the people understood the article in the notice, which had a great deal to do with them, the wise people, in accordance with the notice, went to the gate of the state capital on the second day, consciously lined up, and prepared to sign up as a Tuntian guest and obtain the Tuntian they could get.

For a time, the people, families and merchants of the two counties had the feeling of ice and fire at the same time.
