The feudal marquis not only brought fame to Jin Yu, but also benefits, Fenglu is a relatively stable part, and there is also the repair cost of the mansion by the imperial court...... This article has not changed much for thousands of years, even if there is no title in later generations, as long as it reaches a certain level, there will also be unit dormitory points, of course, only part of it is villa nature, and more are buildings. If it weren't for the imminent arrival of the guests at the big banquet, Yang Ying would have carried out a new round of expansion projects long ago.

Humans are profit-seeking animals. In view of the various benefits brought by the feudal marquis, only some people went thousands of miles to win military merits. It can be seen that it is difficult to obtain military achievements, but there are still women who "repent of their husbands and seek the marquis", and the reason for their regret is only their youth, not because they are worried about the safety of their husbands. What is the use of marrying such a daughter-in-law? In order to top the savannah on the head?

Jinjiazhuang has had several large-scale banquets before, but this is the largest one so far. Most of the famous families, princes, and marquis in Chang'an City have sent congratulatory gifts in advance, solid real money! At the beginning, Jin Yu was still a little complacent, but as more and more congratulatory gifts were given, Jin Yu was a little nervous.

It's just a marquis, from the treatment of the third grade, to the future generations, it can't reach the deputy ministerial level, not to mention that there is no real power? Why are there so many gifts?

After consulting Old Man Qin, Jin Yu realized that his title not only had the contribution of the pox planting method, but also the credit of promoting the planting method.

What's missing now? Person! Grain! Compared with the previous dynasty, the population has dropped sharply! In history, population is everything, and fertility has been encouraged throughout the ages. Pox vaccination can effectively reduce the number of child deaths, but without food support, it is still impossible to achieve stable population growth. It's something that goes hand in hand.

Some people may question, Zhenguan is not short of food, and after receiving so many granaries from the previous dynasty, it is not a problem to eat for thirty or fifty years, right? Those who can ask this kind of question can be described as "why not eat minced meat".

In later generations, vacuum-packed rice had a clearly marked shelf life of only 18 months! Can you still eat the expired ones? Eat it, anyway, the problem comes from a person responsible, and the manufacturer doesn't care.

Wang Jue said that "counting the world's accumulation, you have to supply it for fifty or sixty years", but people have a time premise - to the end of the emperor, that is, 600 AD. When Yang Ying and his father took the throne, the population was also quite large, all kinds of digging, building, and repairing, how long can people eat horses and chew? What's more, the next 30 years of war and chaos continued, and no one farmed, even if there was an old book, how long could it last? Take a step back, even if there is a surplus, who would dare to eat the grain that has been stored for thirty years? After Li Er's boss took the position, he clearly stipulated that "Su Zang for nine years, Mi Zang for five years, Lower Wet Land, Su Zang for five years, and Mi Zang for three years, all of which are written in the order".

There may still be people who question that the rice is four or five dollars, and the rice is four or five dollars! The price of rice is so cheap, how can there be a shortage of food?

People who don't live in this era don't know what they are facing.

In the first year of Zhenguan, there was a great drought in Shandong, a heavy frost in Henan and Longyou, and Boss Li Er took the initiative to reduce his diet due to the famine in the world. Boss Li Er's food is less, you say there is no shortage of food?

In the second year of Zhenguan, there was still a drought, and there was a locust plague, and the people in the Guannai begged for food and amnesty (the prison food was not so delicious, there was no food, and they couldn't afford it).

Zhenguan for three years, still drought! What should I do if I have been in drought for three years in a row? Boss Li Er is also very helpless! I personally went to the field to do a demonstration, so that everyone could stabilize. To what extent is there a shortage of food? Even the rewards have been exchanged for food! It was also in this year that the army marched out and went on an expedition against the Turks!

In the fourth year of Zhenguan, "the world is great, and the displaced people return to their hometowns", "rice buckets are four or five dollars", and the grain is harvested! Have you ever heard of rice and cheap farmers? When there is a bumper harvest, the food will be cheap, however, don't worry, is there still a shortage of food? Lack! Only when you have food at home can you not panic! Although there is a bumper harvest, there is still abnormal weather, have you ever seen a strong wind that can uproot the weeping willows? Zhenguan has been there for four years! No one can guarantee a bumper harvest next year! So, how did Boss Li Er reward the meritorious ones of the expedition to the Turks? Free of rent this year! Just leave some surplus food for their families.

How important is food in these days? From the prince to the people, the treatment is mostly settled with grain, so Yang Yingcai said that most of the rice warehouses at home are Jinyu's Lu rice. There are not many people who recognize money, whether it is casual work, or monthly salary, many people choose grain instead of copper money. Even the shops accepted the use of grain by the people to settle the value of goods. Therefore, food is hard currency, and it is okay to have no money, but it is absolutely impossible to have no food! It also incidentally created the people's attachment to the land, and land annexation is actually a preference that goes deep into the bones, and I am afraid of hunger!

"Doumi Sanwuwen" is just a reference, and there are not many people who really buy grain. Besides, Zhenguan's grain store is really different from the grain store of later generations. It is difficult to see moldy and spoiled grain in grain stores in later generations, and rice is real rice, and all kinds of millet, rice, and brown rice are complete. What about Zhenguan's grain store? Moldy and sand-mixed are also available. In those days, there was no vacuum technology, and the shelf life of everything was relatively short. In order to prolong the shelf life of food, what do ordinary people do? That's right, it's storage with a shell, and even the rent collection is with a shell, and you can eat and grind as you go. Therefore, the rice of three or five pieces of rice is definitely not a good rice, moldy, spoiled, sandy, and shelled...... Word games, a thief.

Some people may still question it, thinking that this is nonsense, prosperous times, it is impossible. However, just by analogy, Jin Yu listened to his grandfather talk about the ancient times when he was a child, and there were no high piles of grain, pure memories. In the fifties and sixties, there were many people in the countryside who did not have enough to eat, and there were not a few who begged. What's more, Wude and Zhenguan have always been blessed by natural disasters and wars, and it is strange that there is no shortage of food.

Although there is a shortage of food, the tax rate of Wude and Zhenguan is outrageously low!

Li and his wife engaged in a tax system called "rent adjustment and yong", which was the source of most of the fiscal revenue during the Wude and Zhenguan years (in 1950, agricultural tax accounted for 39% of the state's total fiscal revenue). For ordinary people, the comprehensive tax rate is about 6.5% (the family produces 100 catties of grain a year, and if you pay six and a half catties, you don't have to do anything, and you don't have to go to labor).

Tea tax? No. Salt tax? No. Iron tax? No. Business Tax? The most obvious example of this is the East Market and the West Market. The other is the land tax and household tax. After Li Er's boss took the position, he found that he was really poor and couldn't even afford to build a palace, so Zhenguan increased the land tax in the second year, two liters per mu. The household tax is probably the income tax based on the family, and those with more income pay more, and those with low income pay less. All taxes are combined, accounting for about 8% of the annual income of ordinary people (if you plant two crops a year, the tax rate will be even lower).

Although it has been more than two years since the great drought, hunger still lingers, and when they are not working, no one is willing to let go of their stomachs to eat dry rice, two meals a day, and one meal of hunger is the norm. Saving more surplus food to cope with disaster years is a consistent understanding from top to bottom.

The people want to collect more grain, the family also wants to save more grain, and Li Erye wants to collect more agricultural taxes. Tuhun Valley is not honest, and he has long wanted to scare them, Goguryeo is too arrogant, and he will be destroyed! The world is so big, and there are many places where he has not designated his own territory. The house is also old, it's time to renovate it, right? There are not many palaces outside, and it is not easy to escape the heat. What doesn't need food?

However, don't look at the low tax rate, there is no high-yield and high-quality seeds, and there is no proper planting method to lay the foundation, and the over-taxation will be sprayed to death by the people, and the boat of friendship will capsize (water can carry a boat and also capsize). Only when the yield per mu has increased and the people have become rich, can Li Erye have a reason to justifiably charge more taxes.

Old Man Qin also said, Your Majesty This is a conspiracy of killing several birds with one stone, and planting pox can not only reduce the number of premature deaths, but also do a census by the way, laying a solid data foundation for future tosses. It is also through the matter of the feudal marquis, so that Jin Yu can really come up with a way to increase grain production.

After listening to Jin Yu, one head and two big, this task is not easy to complete, and the pressure is very high! However, how can there be a grain seed that can be conjured out of thin air? I have to ask for some benefits, and by the way, I will detoxify the potatoes, this plan is very good!
