Chapter 210: Qin Tian's Statue
"Hey, this year's harvest is gone, after paying taxes, there is not much left, and I don't know how to live this day!" An old farmer sat on the ridge of the field, looking at the crops in the field, and was worried for a while.
There were a few other people with him, and their reactions were similar, all of them frowning.
Farmers rely on the land, and if the harvest is not good, the year will basically be in vain.
"Good news, good news......"
At this time, a middle-aged man, with shabby clothes and seemingly poor family, shouted while running, his face was full of joy.
"Lao Zhang, look at your happy face, have you picked up the money, or is your daughter about to get married?" The old man who was still worried just now couldn't help but quip.
"No, didn't I go to Chang'an today? Guess what I saw? Lao Zhang said mysteriously.
"If you see something, just say it directly, grinding and chirping, like an old lady." The people around him scolded him and hurriedly asked.
"Hehe, let me tell you, this is great news, I went to Chang'an today, and I just saw the emperor list, do you know what is written on the emperor list?" Lao Zhang sold another pass.
When everyone saw him talk about the main point, they stopped, and everyone was not happy, and urged: "What did you say, what did you write?" ”
Curiosity kills cats, no matter what time it is, it's the same for everyone.
"I don't know how to read, but I specifically asked passers-by, and I learned that in order to improve the lives of ordinary people, the Holy One has decided to abolish the agricultural tax, do you say, is it good news?" After Lao Zhang finished speaking, he looked at everyone's reactions, and they were all shocked.
"Lao Zhang, is what you said true? Is there really no tax anymore? The old man asked in a trembling voice.
"That's right, not only will we not collect it this year, but we won't have to pay taxes from now on, and in the future, no matter how much or little our food is, it will belong to us, and we don't have to pay a single grain." Lao Zhang's reaction when he first heard it was the same as everyone else.
"It can't be fake, right? How do I feel like I'm in a dream? The old man couldn't believe what he heard, he was worried about how to live this year, and now when he heard this amazing news, he couldn't imagine that it was true.
"It's all clearly written on the emperor's list, how can it be fake? Have you forgotten that today's saints are immortals who have come down to earth to bless our people? ”
"If that's the case, that's great, we don't have to worry about running out of food anymore!"
"Great, what a living bodhisattva today!"
"With today's saints, we ordinary people are blessed!"
At this time, everyone was full of infinite gratitude to Qin Tian, and they all knelt on the ground and bowed. In their minds, they don't really care who is the emperor, what they want is an emperor who can think about the common people, undoubtedly, Qin Tian is now a good emperor in their minds, a generation of Ming monarchs.
The policy of abolishing the agricultural tax has been implemented at a rapid pace.
The response was great, but most of them were positive, and the people unanimously appreciated Qin Tian's initiative and were grateful.
The people live and work in peace and contentment, and this is just the beginning. Now that Datang's productivity is relatively low, it would be good for everyone to be able to solve the problem of food and clothing.
If you want to improve the lives of the people, there is a long way to go!
Qin Tian didn't expect that his own move would make his voice among the people so high, everyone loved them from the bottom of their hearts, they were all very simple, and they felt that Qin Tian was a good emperor who could give them a happy life.
After Qin Tian finished the court, he went directly to the barracks, and his current focus is on the military armed forces, and he believes in the words of the great leader: power comes out of the barrel of a gun!
If you want others to obey you, you must have absolute strength! Not convinced, isn't it? Hit until you serve!
Therefore, Qin Tian attaches great importance to this area, and the Qin family army now has only 3,000 people, and these are his direct forces.
Thinking of the previous Qin family's army, he was annoyed, if it weren't for himself, they wouldn't have sacrificed, they were all one against ten, and the current Qin family's army was completely incomparable with them.
The only way to train is to increase training and strive to cultivate a Qin army with extremely strong combat effectiveness.
Qin Tian took a little time out every day to personally accompany them to train together, he seemed to be safe now, but in fact he was in danger, there were wolves in front and tigers in front of him, internal and external troubles, and he felt that everything was out of his control.
After communicating with famous generals such as Li Jing and Cheng Yanjin, Qin Tian had a big plan in his heart, he wanted to establish a military academy, which was easy for soldiers to obtain, but hard to find famous generals!
As a soldier, it is not enough to use force alone, but also to have a level of education and military leadership.
Qin Tian was a person who thought of it, so he immediately began to prepare for the plan to build a military academy.
In addition to the military, business is also his primary concern.
So he remembered a person, that was Lu Yuan, this guy had a more flexible head.
"Lu Yuan, when I'm not there, how are things going on in the commercial street?" Qin Tian hadn't asked much about his industry for so many days.
"Back to Your Majesty, now the entire commercial street has been completed, and soon the commercial street will take on a new look, and it will be the most prosperous and lively place in Datang." Lu Yuan said excitedly, Qin Tian has now ascended the throne and become emperor, and his identity has also risen with the tide.
After hearing this, Qin Tian nodded appreciatively: "Well, Lu Yuan, you did a good job and didn't disappoint me." ”
"Your Majesty Xie appreciates that the minister has taken the initiative to build a large statue for His Majesty in the center of the commercial street square, please punish Your Majesty!" While Lu Yuan was speaking, his eyes watched Qin Tian's expression from time to time.
Qin Tian saw Lu Yuan's cautious appearance, and couldn't help but be happy: "Well, let's go, take me to the scene to take a look, if it's too ugly, I will cure you for the crime of disrespect." ”
When the two came to the square, Qin Tian saw a mighty knight statue at a glance, the statue was vivid and very realistic, and he saw him riding on a horse, holding the reins in one hand and a sword in the other, very powerful. There is also a row of text below the statue, which reads: Your Majesty Qin Tian of the Great Qin United Empire!
Qin Tian, who was watching, felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart, and he was very satisfied with Lu Yuan's arrangement.
patted Lu Yuan's shoulder and praised: "I am very satisfied!" ”
Lu Yuan saw that Qin Tian was satisfied, and his body relaxed, for fear that he would make Qin Tian unhappy with this move.
"Lu Yuan, how did you come up with the idea of building a statue of me here?" Qin Tian asked.
"Back to Your Majesty's words, because this new type of commercial street was built by Your Majesty, this is of great significance and worth remembering!"
