The third volume sailed in the Ming Dynasty

"Ashamed, ashamed......"

Whenever Qin Hao clearly mentioned a sentence about Zhang Pu's past events, he would say it with a wry smile. In the end, www.biquge.info he was in tears and didn't know it.

Yang Tingshu looked at Qin Haoming with a sad face in a daze, his heart was empty, a layer of paper was pierced, he didn't know what he had been doing all these years, what was the point?

Zhou Tingru's personal morality is at a loss, and everyone in the world knows it, but what are they doing now? Sleeping with the enemy?

"Po Yu, how should our students help the Ming Dynasty and relieve the people from fire and water?"

Half a salary, Yang Tingshu asked in a sad and sad voice.

"Brother Yang was born in the family of the official eunuch since he was a child, and he should have no worries about food and clothing, but do you know that the people are suffering?"

Qin Haoming put his hands behind his back, his eyes were blazing, and he looked directly at the two.

Yang Tingshu is the grandson of Yang Cheng, the Jiangong of Shangshuzhuang of the Nanjing Military Department, and the son of Yang Daqin, so why worry about three meals a day?

Although Zhang Pu was poor when he was young, after becoming famous, how could he be hungry?

What do you mean by that? Isn't it wrong for us to ask the court to reduce taxes and taxes because we are well aware of the people's sufferings and not to compete with the people for profit? ”

Yang Tingshu's originally somewhat decadent mood suddenly rose, these issues are usually discussed the most with the students of the Restoration Society, and everyone has the same views and the most experience.

At this moment, since Qin Haoming talked about this issue, he was full of morale and regained his confidence.

Even Zhang Pu next to him temporarily suppressed the sorrow in his heart, and set his eyes on Qin Haoming to hear what new insights he had.

The situation of the two made Qin Haoming feel gratified, after all, they were not old oilmen in officialdom, and they still had their own principles and conscience.

Even if the Donglin Party is over, he still has to work hard to fight for the resumption of the society.

In fact, whether it is the court or himself, it is inevitable to turn against the Donglin Party in the future. The reason is also very simple, that is, the conflict of interests.

On the one hand, to reorganize the rivers and mountains, it is necessary to centralize power and militarize, and to fully mobilize the country and make full use of the huge national strength of the Ming Dynasty.

Instead of being a mess of sand as it is now.

In fact, the country has a population of more than 100 million, but it was destroyed by a slave of hundreds of thousands of people, and the shaved hair was easy to wear, and the civilization was destroyed, what is this shame?

"I know the suffering of the people, but I don't know why I repeatedly collect taxes from the people, but the officials and gentlemen do not have the slightest?

So that the poor get poorer and the rich get richer!

Or do you just think that the officials and gentlemen are the people, and the ordinary people are ants? ”

The more Qin Haoming spoke, the more angry he became, and his voice gradually increased, faintly reprimanding.

Since he came to Daming, he has not said these words to others, but today he is like a fish in his throat, not vomiting or unhappy.

Fushe and Donglin represent the emerging bourgeoisie and the interests of their own class.

During the Wanli period, tax supervisors and mine supervisors did infringe on the interests of large landlords and big businessmen, and at the same time harmed a large number of ordinary people.

From this point of view, some of the Donglin Party's attacks seem to have some truth.

But more often than not, it's just for the sake of the interests of the class......

"The collection of agricultural taxes and the reduction of scholars are the national policy of the Ming Dynasty, and it has been the case for more than 200 years.

The collection of commercial taxes, tax supervisors and mine supervisors during the Wanli period was the beginning of the disaster to the country and the people, and the people's hearts were loose, so there was today's danger. ”

Zhang Puyu defended himself, which is also the mainstream statement of the current society of the Ming Dynasty.

"Hahaha......"

This is not a joke, but it made Qin Haoming laugh with tears in his eyes.

After that, he shook his head helplessly, and said to the two with a sneer on the corner of his mouth: "I wonder if anyone in the Ming Dynasty has read Shihu?" Don't you even know that only when there is a country can there be a home, and if the country is broken, the family will die?

The country is ruined, and people and property are lost!

People at the time were short-sighted, frantically evading taxes for decades, thinking that they had taken a big advantage, but they didn't know that it was an out-and-out suicide, which is sad and lamentable!

You might as well think about it, if it weren't for the Wanli Emperor collecting taxes everywhere, would there be three major victories? If the three major expeditions fail, what will happen to the Ming Dynasty? ”

Speaking of the back, Qin Haoming spoke sharply and did not leave the slightest emotion.

Thinking of the Jiannu court's evaluation of the history of the Ming Dynasty, it was said that Wanli left hidden dangers, which led to the disaster of destroying the country.

And some so-called historians in later generations even tried their best to advocate it, ignoring historical facts, and making people speechless.

As everyone knows, the finance of the Ming Dynasty was indeed dominated by agricultural taxes before Wanli, but the Wanli Emperor knew that continuing to levy meager agricultural taxes would not only be insufficient for the treasury, but also unbearable for the peasants.

Therefore, Wanli tried to collect taxes from the capitalists in Jiangnan.

Because the household department that manages the outer treasury does not accept industrial and commercial taxes, but only collects agricultural taxes, Wanli will put industrial and commercial taxes into the inner treasury, which is the so-called Wanli greedy for money.

In fact, the money used by the three major levies of Wanli is the industrial and commercial tax of the inner treasury.

Through the wonderful performance of the three cases of the court striking the red pill and moving the palace, the Donglin Party finally took control of the government for the first time after Wanli's death.

They immediately forced Emperor Taichang to abolish various industrial and commercial taxes, fully exposing the role of the Donglin Party as the spokesman of the capitalists.

At that time, the development and imbalance of various parts of the Ming Dynasty, the industry and commerce in the south of the Yangtze River were developed, and there was almost no need to pay any taxes.

The peasants in the northern provinces could hardly endure the high taxes and could not afford to eat in the event of a natural disaster.

The war in Liaodong is tight and the treasury is empty, what should I do?

It was in this context that Wei Zhongxian appeared. What to do, of course, is to find the Donglin Party to pay taxes.

After a few years, the treasury began to gradually become full again.

Apocalypse's death is a good opportunity. Chongzhen sided with the Donglin Party. The Donglin Party wanted to kill Wei Zhongxian and then quickly, but Chongzhen only relieved him of his post and ordered him to guard the tomb.

Later, Wei Zhongxian was given death, and Chongzhen was buried before he died.

Only when Chongzhen hung his crooked neck tree did he remember the words of his eldest brother Tianqi on his deathbed, and he had to rely on Wei Zhongxian.

It's a pity that the young and vigorous Emperor Chongzhen only saw the negativity of the eunuchs, but ignored their ability to do practical things, so there was a saying that everyone in the world could be killed!

Zhang Pu and Yang Tingshu looked at each other, their faces were ugly, and they couldn't imagine that Qin Haoming, who was usually warm in the spring breeze, would be furious today.

Yang Tingshu had the heart to distinguish between the two sentences, but found that he couldn't say it.

Qin Haoming's words today touched him a lot, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is deafening, which makes him doubt what he has done in the past.

"How rich the rich gentleman in Jiangnan is, I believe there is no need for Qin to say more.

Like Donglin's Qian Qianyi and Fushe's Mao Xiang, they are not considered to be rich families. But there are three or five gardens, and a net worth of hundreds of thousands of taels, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with breaking the captives, right? ”

Qin Haoming patted Yang Tingshu's shoulder, sneered and asked, without waiting for him to answer, he walked to Zhang Pu and said:

"The Ming Dynasty has a large population, and the taxes are added to the family, but there are no soldiers available, and there is no salary to pay, why?

Obviously, the amount of silver has risen? The folk gentry and magnates have so much money that they burn their hands? Obviously, the land is vast and rich, the north is troubled, and the south is rich, how can it still be like this?

The two Ming elites who claim to be the country and the people, have you ever thought about it? What to ask?

That's because the Ming gentry didn't pay industrial and commercial taxes, and there were still hidden households, investment and dedication, and there were many tricks, changing the law to suck the blood of the country.

There are even Donglin Party members, who obviously have a huge government, but for the sake of interests, they deliberately resisted, making the administrative efficiency of the Ming Dynasty very low.

In fact, the authority of the Ming Dynasty has disappeared, and the gentry class of this dynasty has formed its own pattern and no longer serves the Ming Dynasty. ”

Qin Haoming asked and answered himself, similar to a roar, everything he said, not to mention the two people in the hall, could be heard from afar.
