Chapter Twenty-Nine: Abolishing Taxes and Abolishing Wang Tian (10)

When Zhao and Tuesday Wang left, Huang Daozhou opened his arms and hugged Li Xianfeng. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Brother Li, it has been several years since the apocalypse was separated in the second year, and I never thought that you and my brother would meet again here!"

Speaking of this, Zodiac Zhou was obviously a little excited.

To say that these two people are fellow scholars, Huang Daozhou was taken care of by Li Xianfeng back then, so the friendship between the two was very deep.

The two exchanged pleasantries, but after that, Li Fengxian said cautiously.

"Brother Xuanwu, I don't know if I came to Henan this time, but it was only for the sake of King Fu?"

And at this moment, hearing this, Huang Daozhou was stunned at first, and then laughed.

"Brother Li said this, but he was worried that his brother would rob his brother's job?"

Hearing Huang Daozhou's jokes, Li Xianfeng was busy.

"Youxuan, I misunderstood, I misunderstood, Youxuan was sent by the Son of Heaven, that is, to replace the position of my brother, how can my brother have any complaints, but I heard that Youxuan is quite appreciated by His Majesty in Beijing, hey, Youxuan, you also know that you have been in this Henan land for several years!"

For Li Xianfeng's words, for Huang Daozhou, there is something not so smooth in his heart.

Although Li Xianfeng was kind to him back then, with his zodiac Zhou's temperament, it was impossible for him to seek the interests of the country for the sake of his own personal kindness!

Therefore, at this moment, Huang Daozhou's complexion changed slightly.

"Brother Li, there is a way, the governor, the pastor of the ancient state, is to shepherd the people of one side for the Son of Heaven! It can't be said that it is the weight of the party, Brother Li said this, but my brother did not dare to agree! ”

Faced with Huang Daozhou's changing face, Li Xianfeng was also a little embarrassed for a while, but he also knew a little about himself, a classmate and friend back then.

To use his words.

Learn from the past and the present, and directly advise Qingde!

If it weren't for the fact that he had been in Henan for a long time, and the local governance had become more and more difficult over the years, for Li Xianfeng, he would have been beyond his strength!

For example, in the case of the blessed king before, he alone occupied more than 20,000 hectares in Luoyang and other places, not including the number of kings of Zhou, and these princes not only did not have to pay taxes, but also because of the lack of land, the princes' reward fields were mostly 'idle fields', and most of them were offset by taxes, and all of them were added to the people.

A few years ago, someone in Shaanxi raised an anti-flag, but for Li Xianfeng, the land of Henan, he didn't know when such a disaster would befall him, so Li Xianfeng wanted his classmate and friend back then, in front of the emperor, to recommend himself to be a Beijing official, but he also stayed away from this place!

"Youxuan, but it's abrupt for my brother, but it's not easy to be an official for my brother all these years!"

Speaking of this, Li Xianfeng sighed heavily.

Seeing this, Huang Daozong also put away his previous face, but he also said in a deep voice.

"My brother's predicament is known to my brother, so my brother is ordered to come here today, but it is for my brother to solve the predicament here!"

Hearing Huang Daozhou's words, Li Xianfeng was interested for a while.

"For a brother, I would like to hear about it!"

It turned out that during this period, Huang Daozhou was ordered to come, one was to deal with the matter of King Fu, and the other was to seal Zhu Jian's will to carry out a comprehensive rectification of Henan and Shanxi.

As for Zhu Jian's intention, firstly, it was because Zodiac Zhou had just arrived at the beginning of the year, and there was no team in his hands, and secondly, it was also to train a new patrol battalion to take over the defense work of Henan and Shanxi.

"Brother Li, take the order!"

And just when Li Xianfeng put on a look of wishing to hear the details, Huang Daozhou took out another holy decree from his sleeve.

Seeing this, Li Xianfeng was busy kneeling down to receive the order.

"Fengtian carries the emperor, the edict says: Now the mountains and rivers are broken, the people are not happy, however, harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes are rampant, the people sell their children and women, and flee all over the wilderness, so that the fat land is now a barren place, I think about it here, and I feel very sad, so I sent Huang Daozhou, the minister of the Political Affairs Bureau, to ...... for the governor of Henan and Shanxi."

"Your Majesty really wants to make a big move?"

When he heard the decree of the Zodiac Sect, Li Xianfeng at this moment actually showed a trace of doubt.

Hearing this, Huang Daozong said with a resolute face.

"Your Majesty for the country, for the people, hard work, even if it is a sea of swords and fires, we should also walk with us, fearless!"

"Your Majesty is really a generation of saints!"

After hearing Huang Daozhou's incomparably affirmative words, Li Xianfeng sighed heavily and said, but this statement came from the bottom of his heart.

"Brother, in addition, Lord Qu will be here soon, you and I should personally welcome him!"

"That's nature!"

Here, the Lord Qu in Huang Daozhou's mouth is the Zuo Shilang Qu Shiyun of the Ministry of Agriculture and Industry and Commerce, and the reason why Zhu Jian sent this Qu Shiyun to be the auxiliary minister of the new policy in Henan and Shanxi is partly because in the first year of Chongzhen, the Ministry of Household Affairs said "Qing Cao Zheng Shu", and secondly, this Qu Shiyun's talent is clear through Zhu Jian's memory from his previous life.

However, it was said that when Huang Daozhou had a conversation with this Li Xianfeng, the money in the treasury of the Fu Wang's Mansion had been sorted out by the sergeant himself.

"Eight million taels of silver, countless gold and silver utensils, what a big deal!"

Hearing what the soldiers said, Huang Daozhou was a little dumbfounded by the wealth that King Fu had accumulated over the years, which was unimaginable!

"Yes! It's really hard for the people of Luoyang! ”

At this moment, Li Xianfeng, the governor of Henan, also sighed.

"Come on, seal all the five million taels of silver seized here, and wait for Lord Qu to come and transport them back to the capital for later use! The remaining three million taels were reserved for rectification in Henan and Shanxi, and the rest of the gold and silver artifacts were all auctioned in Luoyang in the near future! ”

Within a few days, such two notices appeared at the same time in many counties in Henan and Shanxi.

One is about Wang Tian in Henan and Shanxi.

First, inform the people that all Wangzhuang is nationalized, can be cultivated by the people, those who are willing to go to farming, the year is exempted from taxes, the government will give cattle and improved seed subsidies, the next year is to collect a tax of three cents per mu, and another year, it is to collect six cents per mu of land tax, and then never add taxes, disaster years are not to pay field tax, and the so-called levy and pre-levy!

Second, just like the establishment of farms in Beijing, in Henan, Shanxi and other places at the same time set up eight farms, the people are willing to go to the farm, to give salary subsidies, for the country to grow grain naturally exempt from taxes, during the establishment of public canteens, schools, hospitals, all the children of farm workers, in the meantime, only a small fee, of which the school is all exempt from fees, and for the empire to cultivate grain production of large households, in addition to giving you a lot of material rewards, but also by the governor of Henan, Shanxi on behalf of the emperor to award the medal of honor!

The other is about recruiting new troops.

The governors of Henan and Shanxi recruited new recruits for the patrol of the two provinces, but all the subjects of the empire, if they did not have traitors and bad habits, as long as their bodies met the standards, they were all used, and for the recruits, they were given a salary of five stones per year, and the families of military families were exempted from conscription! If a soldier is disabled on duty, he will be given a one-time subsidy of thirty taels of silver and exempted from taxes for life!
