Chapter 197: Sloganism
It's not that Zhu Changluo's conditions are too harsh, almost at the same time as Zhu Changluo said these conditions, the thoughts in the minds of the people present were that this was too cheap for the other party!
However, the difference is that Zhao Shizhen and Yang Lian's brows are furrowed, and their faces are faintly ugly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
You must know that among Zhu Changluo's three conditions, except for the second one, which touches Liu Shouyou's interests, the others are simply given away for nothing, okay?
Even if it is the second condition, it is just a change of soup and not a change of medicine, although it is said that this newly established tax department is in the palace, but don't forget that the people and horses are Liu Shouyou's people, it is just a change of office, for Liu Shouyou, it is just to pay more attention to management.
As for the first and third conditions, it simply made Zhao Shizhen and Yang Lian feel that they were following the wrong person?
Without him, the implication of the first condition proposed by Zhu Changluo is simply not too obvious, and the amount of commercial tax submitted by the palace is not obvious, and he plans to do something in the taxes to the imperial court.
As for the third one, it is even more naked to seek their own interests, and directly let the big merchants deposit their money into Hang Lung Bank!
This is simply something that only a tyrannical prince can do!
Yang Lian was young, and he couldn't hold his breath the most, and immediately got up and said indignantly after listening to Zhu Changluo's words.
"How can Your Highness be like this? Taxation is a matter of great importance to the state, how can His Highness be in the same league as the corrupt officials and deceive the court? For the benefit of the family, to damage the prestige of the court, is it what the prince should do? ”
Zhao Shizhen didn't speak, but he looked at Zhu Changluo with a little disappointment in his eyes, but Luo Yangxing didn't feel that there was anything wrong, how could His Highness be cheated in vain? These silvers were swallowed by Liu Shouyou, so naturally they had to find them from other places, which was the usual method used by eunuchs and Jinyiwei, so it was not strange for Luo Yangxing!
However, Yang Lian's behavior was inappropriate after all, because before Zhu Changluo could speak, Zhao Shizhen's face sank and he spoke.
"Yang Lian, what are you talking nonsense? Is this an attitude towards His Highness? Your Highness is such a greedy person for money, quickly apologize to Your Highness! ”
But Yang Lian was stubborn and didn't say a word.
Looking at Yang Lian's indignant gaze, Zhu Changluo patted his head, how could he forget this stubble, the one in front of him was an angry young man!
If you don't explain this matter to him clearly today, it is not impossible for Yang Lian to leave with his sleeves brushed up.
His face remained unchanged, Zhu Changluo raised his hand and pressed it, and said slowly.
"Yang Jishan is a little restless, and after listening to this king, this king's three conditions, one is to appease that Liu Shouyou, and the other is to implement another policy and never give more!"
Although Zhu Changluo was very disdainful of most of the policies of the Manchu Tartars, he had to say that it was really bluffing to say the name of a certain perfect old man, at least after he threw these four words, Yang Lian's eyes quickly changed from hostility and dissatisfaction to shock and disbelief.
If Zhu Changluo's three conditions just now made Yang Lian feel that he was looking at the wrong person, then what Zhu Changluo said now directly pushed Yang Lian's opinion of him from one extreme to another.
Never give? For literati and doctors, this is simply the best way to buy people's hearts, and this deceptive slogan does not know how many people will sing the praises of the Tartars of later generations.
But in reality?
Only Zhu Changluo knows that there is a sentence before the so-called Tartar will never be endowed, "The prosperous world breeds people, and never endows!" ”
In other words, what they are propagating is that they will never increase the levy of the levy, but the problem is that if they do not add the levy, they can increase the land endowment, the salt tax, and the forced labor, but it is just a left-handed and right-handed slogan, I don't know how many hearts have been bought!
And what is interesting is that although the Tartars claimed that they would never be allocated, but later they implemented the apportionment into the mu, simply put, the meaning of the apportionment into the mu is to evenly divide the people into the field, and the two are combined into one, unified collection, so that the people's hearts are bought, and the government's finances have no loss, which can not be described as an unclever show.
Of course, Zhu Changluo still has a temperance, what he said about never adding endowment is not this kind of show trick, but the real never endowment, with a righteous expression, Zhu Changluo said with righteousness and awe.
"This king is the prince of the vassal country, since the people are suffering, it is not easy for farmers to plough today, it is because this king has already planned, as long as this king is in Ping'an Mansion for a day, the land of Ping'an Mansion will no longer be levied!"
"Your Highness Gaoyi!"
Before Zhu Changluo could react, Yang Lian fell to the ground, and even tears appeared in his eyes.
Unlike the others in the hall, only Yang Lian was from a humble background, his family was a farmer, and he lived on a few acres of thin land, so only he knew best how far-reaching the significance of this policy was.
You must know that in today's tax system, although it is said to be a few taxes, in fact, the way of collection and payment is that the imperial court sets the amount of taxes according to the expected output of the acre, and the local government must pay the amount according to the quota in the coming year.
After all, the annual harvest of each place is different, and the magistrate can only forcibly increase the tax in order to complete the figure of the imperial court, resulting in the final Oh, although the official tax rate is three taxes and one tax for the field, but in fact, some places have reached a terrible two taxes and one or even five taxes and three.
However, he also knew that there was no way to do it, the imperial court wanted to collect taxes, and it was impossible to see how much was produced by an acre of land, and only through this method could the smooth collection of taxes be maintained......
It is precisely because of this that Yang Lian will feel extremely shocked by Zhu Changluo's policy, because as long as Zhu Changluo's policy is implemented, it is equivalent to giving up nearly thirty percent of the land to appease the peasants.
For a moment, Yang Lian couldn't help but feel a strong sense of guilt for his suspicion of Zhu Changluo just now.
His Royal Highness is so deliberate for the sake of the people, and even does not hesitate to flatter corrupt officials and corrupt officials, but he can't understand his painstaking efforts, and he refutes him, which is not the way of a human minister.
As soon as he thought of this, Yang Lian lowered his head and said guiltily.
"The minister was impulsive and offended His Highness, please punish Your Highness!"
When Zhu Changluo saw Yang Lian's appearance, he couldn't help but sigh, sloganism is really harmful! Even a smart person like Yang Lian can't escape the fate of being poisoned by slogans......
