Chapter 863: Hot Potato
"Impossible, these royal relatives are not stupid, why should they give up such a big benefit! Dashuai, are you confused? Huang Xing asked with a look of disbelief!
Yang Xingguo sneered: "Confused, of course not." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"The reason why these people dominate so much land is because land can bring them huge benefits. If we let these lands become a hot potato in their hands, not only can they not generate income, but they will also owe it every year, do you think they will still dominate these lands and not let go? ”
"Definitely not!" Huang Xing replied immediately.
But in a few seconds, Huang Xing shook his head and asked, "But, how can the land become a hot potato!" Dashuai, in my opinion, this is almost impossible to do! ”
Yang Xingguo replied confidently: "No, this can be done, and it is very easy to do!" ”
"As far as I know, our current field tax should be the lowest in all dynasties, and my idea is that the tax should be further reduced!"
"Only in this way will ordinary people have more surplus grain in their hands to exchange for silver, and then buy things to stimulate business and economic development!"
Huang Xing frowned and asked, "Isn't this a way for the imperial relatives who hold a lot of land to gain greater benefits?" ”
Yang Xingguo shook his head and replied: "No, the tax reduction I am talking about is only for ordinary people, for the imperial relatives and landlords who hold a lot of land, not only will I not reduce taxes, but also increase taxes!" ”
"Raising taxes, that's not the same as bandits, and in the end, all the landlords who own land are pushed to the opposite side!" Huang Xing asked with a look of incomprehension!
Yang Xingguo shook his head and replied: "No, a small group of people like these imperial relatives and relatives who own a lot of land will become our enemies. However, Ben Shuai is not afraid, as long as most of the landlords and gentry are on our side, even if those people rebel, they will not be able to make any big waves! ”
"And after we cut taxes, ordinary people will definitely stand behind us. Without the support of the people, even if they wanted to rebel, they would not be able to find anyone! ”
Huang Xing's face slowly showed a look of expectation, and then asked, "Dashuai, what is your solution?" ”
"Different standards pay taxes according to different proportions! No matter how much land we have in our family, we calculate it on a per capita basis. Less than 10 mu per capita, we implement it according to the minimum standard, 10 mu to 20 mu, the tax standard is slightly higher, but it must be lower than the original standard of the imperial court. Between twenty and fifty acres, the tax standard is a little higher, and it is better to be the same as the standard of the original imperial court. For more than 50 acres, all of them adopt high taxes, and the standard is twice the original tax rate of the imperial court! ”
Huang Xing quickly understood the hidden meaning of different standards of taxation.
The average landlord has only a few hundred acres of land in his hands, and the average is more than ten acres in the hands of each family member.
Even if you pay taxes at a rate higher than that of ordinary people, it is much lower than that of the imperial court, and they are the ones who get the benefits in the end. Therefore, this standard will not only not arouse opposition from these people, but will also be embraced.
The proportion of landlords with more land is already very small, at most only 20%.
Let them pay taxes according to the standards of the imperial period, and there is basically not much to lose. The only thing to worry about is that as ordinary people begin to get land in their hands, there will definitely be fewer and fewer people willing to farm for them. In order to avoid not being able to pay taxes, they can only find a way to dispose of the land in their hands.
These people will certainly oppose this policy from the bottom of their hearts, but since the capture of Gyeonggi by the National Defense Forces has become a foregone conclusion, there are certainly not many who really dare to stand up and directly express their opposition.
Besides, the Wehrmacht doesn't mind them coming forward. In this way, the Wehrmacht was cheaper, and by killing chickens and monkeys in Gyeonggi once, they not only won the hearts of the people, but also reaped a lot of benefits from these landlords.
As for those who pay taxes according to the last criterion, not only do they not get the slightest profit from the land, but they have to pay a huge price to hire people to cultivate the land, or their losses will be even greater.
According to the rules of the Wehrmacht, as long as the land is in your hands, whether it is cultivated or not, the tax that should be paid is one tael of silver.
In this way, these lands are no longer hens that lay golden eggs in their hands, but a hot potato that constantly consumes their wealth.
In this case, they will definitely find a way to resist this standard, and even rebel is possible.
However, the Wehrmacht did not have to worry at all about their rebellion.
Although they have a great deal of wealth, they are too few. In the words of the big handsome, this person can't make any big waves at all.
If they really have any different intentions, they plan to rebel. Huang Xing is sure that the handsome man sitting in front of him will definitely raise his hands in approval.
Although the Wehrmacht already has a lot of taxes in various places, as the territory continues to expand, so will the tax revenue. However, the expansion of territory and the expansion of the army also means that the attrition of the Wehrmacht is increasing.
Therefore, the handsome Yang Xingguo is also worried about silver every day.
And these imperial relatives who held a large amount of land happened to have a large amount of silver in their hands, and everyone in the Wehrmacht, including himself, coveted this silver. If there is a chance to keep the silver in their hands for themselves, the marshal will definitely not let go of this opportunity.
The more Huang Xing thought about it, the more he felt that Dashuai's method was good.
In less than two minutes, the hesitant expression on his face was shrouded in excitement, and then he hurriedly supported: "Dashuai, I completely agree with this idea." In addition, if there is a willingness to hand over the land to the government, the government will buy it back at a certain price! ”
"In any case, they have acquired these lands at a cost, and if they don't get a silver tael or two, it will not be justified and the image of the Wehrmacht will not be good!"
"It's just that in this way, we still have to prepare at least ten million taels of silver!"
Yang Xingguo decided very happily: "You don't have to worry about the silver, I'll figure it out." What you have to do now is to immediately form my ideas into a policy, and then publish it as soon as possible to stabilize the hearts of millions of people in the Gyeonggi area! ”
As soon as Huang Xing left, Yang Xingguo shifted his gaze to Sun Liechen next to him.
"Chief of Staff, the prisoners of the forbidden army have all been sent to the prisoner camp outside the city!"
Sun Liechen immediately replied: "Except for the 10,000 or 20,000 people consumed by Yuan Shikai's Beiyang Army, the remaining nearly 70,000 prisoners are all in the prisoner camp outside the city. Do you want to? ”
Yang Xingguo, whose face quickly flashed a mysterious smile, directly ordered: "Divide all the officers above the sentry commander among the captives, and then give me their specific identities to count, I will be useful!" ”
