Chapter 500: The Boss (1)
Zheng Lang said: "Your Majesty, the long pain is better than the short pain, and the implication is not widespread, if you retreat like this, not only will the exemption law fail, but the two taxes will also collapse, and the consequences will be no less than the collapse of the Tang Dynasty's Juntian system and government soldiers." β
refers to the turmoil caused by Guo Tan and Sun Lin.
There will be a lot of trouble, so Zheng Lang intentionally or unintentionally took over the matter from Zhongshu, first asked Lu Yijian to go out of the mountain, and received a great favor from Lu Yijian, no matter what, Lu Yijian was besieged by the gentleman again for more than ten days for this matter.
But LΓΌ Yijian's appearance brought great benefits, and the opposition to the minister became very few. In the temple, the first step is reduced. Then he issued an edict and notified the world, which was very detailed, but it did not order all states and counties to implement it. Otherwise, you will poke the hornet's nest again. This is the first to say hello and set up laws and standards.
Then issued an edict to let Guo Sun and the others go to Jianzhou, and brought a large number of officials and soldiers from the capital to give Jizhou Haoqiang a time to prepare.
Zheng Lang wrote a letter to all the heroes in Jianzhou, not by himself, but by asking the doorman to write it on his behalf, but with Zheng Lang's private seal, he said the importance of the matter, especially the deed shares. Make money, there are many people involved, and more than 40,000 deed shares have been put into it, there are top tycoons, and there are also third- and fourth-class households with a little surplus money at home, and there is no way to go to the third and fourth class households, which is also what Zheng Lang hopes to see. It is slightly biased, and there are not many people involved, but there are more than a dozen deed shares. In addition to these people, there are also top local families, with a total of more than 30 letters.
Zheng Lang, as the prime minister, can also be regarded as a condescending condescending to the prime minister.
The decree of sanctions is there, the buffer time is there, and face is given. Guo and Sun arrived in Jianzhou without hurry.
There was a lot of rumors, and many big households guessed that the situation was not good, and they reported to Yintian. It can't be all, ten acres can be reported as eight acres, which is good. In fact, before Guo and Sun left, Zheng Lang said hello again and again. As long as it is not hidden too much, there is no need to dig into it. Once again, disputes and difficulties are reduced.
Now it's easier to check Zheng Lang's abacus. Multiplication oral decision, abacus oral decision, and some geometric formulas, since he was promoted in Taiping Prefecture after the division of fields, gradually spread, the three divisions have also been adopted, as well as Guo Zheng's thousand-step measurement method. The measurement error in the field will not exceed 5%.
The situation has been repeatedly corrected by Zheng Lang and has become a little better, but many big families refuse to lower their arrogant heads, why should they measure our Jizhou, and they want to measure the whole country together, and refuse to obey their orders. This is all an excuse, the main thing is taxes, there were originally two taxes. Now I have exempt money, two taxes and one plus, and I don't want to report Shitian. But the fact is that except for the top big families who seek small officials. The implementation of the exemption law was very beneficial to many second- and third-class households who participated in the hidden fields, and completely eliminated them from forced labor. Originally, the law on exemption from military service was not enforced, and they were clamoring to enforce it, but after it was implemented, they had to hide the field, and they wanted to evade the money from military service. It can also be regarded as a normal human psychology, people are not for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed, and there is no suspicion that there is too much wealth in their hands.
Then the means became very tough, and they were measured one by one. All the acres of land that were wantonly hidden were confiscated, but this time the inspection was not like in history, it was still the original head of the household, but he had to pay taxes, which made the field inspection controversial, but it had little effect. The confiscated fields were not used as public fields. The public land was flooded, and in the end, I didn't know how to reward the magnate, and it was still handed over to poor households and tenant farmers as Zheng Lang's previous policy. If you want to buy and sell the land in the future, you not only need to change the title deed of the head of the household, but also change the name of the head of the household from the county government to take effect.
It also played a preventive role, Guo and Sun left Jianzhou, even if these big households can make all the poor people and tenant farmers bow their heads and hand over the land, but can they force the county to bow their heads and revise the land deeds one by one. This magistrate doesn't want to be an official? β¦,
It's not invulnerable, Zheng Lang is very rational about this, for example, Song Xiaozong governed the Southern Song Dynasty, and saw the erosion of the warehouse method, but some businessmen and the people spontaneously formed a community warehouse to prepare for the famine year, which was quite effective, so they vigorously promoted the community warehouse. At first, it was good, but a few decades later, the evils of the Shecang rose again, and it became a new mountain for Haoqiang and officials to partner with the common people.
This is an unsolvable problem, and we can only keep pace with the times, as he wrote in the mean, and make corrections and adjustments from time to time according to the development of things and current affairs, otherwise no matter how good the system evolves over time, there will be many new drawbacks.
Still did not measure, sent people to post notices everywhere, notified the edict and ordinance, and relaxed for another ten days. And under the Huairou and armed suppression of the imperial court, the rebel armies in various places were gradually eliminated, which also gave Guo and Sun a peaceful and authoritative external environment.
Ten days of salutation, followed by soldiers.
In fact, many timid and fearful householders saw that the wind was wrong, or some clever householders also saw that it was wrong, and successively reported the real field, and added 50,000 hectares of cultivated land to the household register of Jianzhou before it was measured. After all, Jianzhou is a large state with a wide area, but there are many more hidden fields that are not reported.
Gradually, more than 90,000 hectares of hidden fields were identified. In fact, how can there be only 90,000 hidden fields in the big state. But the situation began to expand, and many local tyrants quarreled, some of them were not polite, and Guo Jian was thrown directly into prison, released after a cane, and a few bad people were directly exiled. So it went to the capital again, and the other big families in the state capital were also worried that things would develop and it would be unfavorable to them, so they followed suit. Zheng Lang issued an order, asking Guo Zheng to be bold and continue to investigate, but he had to remember four words, salute first and then soldier, and not give the other party a handle.
Since Zhao Zhen mentioned this matter, Zheng Lang said: "Your Majesty, please make another edict to explain that the imperial court will only inspect the hidden fields in one state this year as a warning." Haoqiang in other state capitals will not follow the trouble, and concentrate the dispute in one state. Besides, I hope that the guests will not embarrass the court and continue to hide the fields, if the local officials act unfairly and harshly to the people, they can appeal to the state capital or even the capital, but they can no longer hide. The situation did not expand, and the Chatian case began in Jizhou and ended in Jizhou. If the main households in various localities continue to hide on a large scale, thus reducing the number of fields on the household registers, then next year the inventory will continue to be carried out in one state, two states and three states, until the inventory of all state capitals in the country is completed. β
Zhao Zhen pondered for a moment and said happily: "Wonderful." β
It is not only a division to avoid trouble, but also a combination of warnings and investigations, and a break from benevolence before righteousness. The Confucian way of saluting first and then soldiering. He said melancholy: "Zheng Qing, I really hope that you will participate in the new policy. β
Zhao Zhen faintly felt that with Zheng Lang's participation, the success rate would be greater.
But Zheng Lang has been wandering outside, and there are still some practices of the gentlemen's party. Zhao Zhen's suspicions became more and more serious, and he did not force it. Although he hoped to, out of the goal of protecting Zheng Lang, he tacitly ignored Zheng Lang's wandering. Zheng Lang said again: "Your Majesty, this year is very cold, and there is heavy snow in various parts of the north, and there is a great drought. Many people are in need, not only the displaced people must prepare cold materials, but also the people in the capital and other places must also prepare charcoal and firewood to prevent the people from frostbite. β
"This is also the case, I immediately allocated a million from the inner treasury and scattered it all over the country, and the officials of the state capital prepared more charcoal. lest our people suffer from the cold again. Zheng Qing, you are also that Joseph, who puts love in your heart. β
"Your Majesty. Speaking of benevolence, the minister is ashamed to face His Majesty, His Majesty is benevolence, but the minister is His Majesty's arm, and the benevolence in His Majesty's heart will be released through the mouth of the hands of the ministers, so as to benefit the people, so as to protect my Great Song Sheji. β
Zhao Zhenlong's face was overjoyed, and he said, "Stay and eat with me." β
"Thank you, Your Majesty." β¦,
Zhao Zhen was very happy, but Zheng Lang was not a mechan. If he makes a mistake, he will also say it boldly, and on the premise that he has not done anything wrong, he will not be knocked down for the sake of defeating, and he will listen to what he says. A minister like this, not only Zhao Zhen will like it. Even a British master like Li Shimin will also like it.
Ouyang Xiu came back.
Zhang Yanzhen made him want to die, but he still has to talk about it, what does your lord think. Ouyang Xiu jumped up when he heard this, my lord asked the envoy to go with twenty hearts of peace, but your Yuan Hao is too ignorant, and he actually locked my envoy in Xiazhou for more than two months, and now there is nothing to talk about. I encountered a major drought in the summer and autumn, but the drought crisis was resolved, and if I wanted to fight, I would fight, and if I didn't fight, I could only follow the nine points I said earlier. Nothing else is possible, even the fifty or seventy thousand stone discussion green salt is gone, let alone two hundred thousand.
Zhang Yanzhen was shocked and said, why doesn't what your envoy said count.
Those two envoys, exile to Lingnan now, or I will send someone to escort you to Lingnan, so that you can talk to them slowly.
is so miscellaneous, how can Zhang Yanzhen talk about good things?
was dizzy, so he wrote a letter back, and then closed the door, not wanting to see Ouyang Xiu, so as to be angry to death in the end.
Zhao Zhen was speechless.
Zheng Lang said: "Ouyang Xiu did a good job this time, forcibly reversing the starting point to 100,000. Otherwise, the starting point of my dynasty is 200,000, plus 570,000 stone blue salt, and if you want to make peace, you must increase it again. It can't be increased, Your Majesty, if it is really 200,000, plus 570,000 stone salt, it is 500,000 guan, and if the tax is less than 500,000, how many people will be able to survive the crisis, and if there are more than 500,000 guan in the treasury, how many people can be saved? β
Zhao Zhendong looked around, and Zheng Lang said again: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, it won't be long before Yuan Hao receives the letter, he will definitely send a messenger again." Now they want to make peace, and we want to make peace too. If we retreat, they will advance. If we go in, they will retreat. This time, Yuan Hao came, and he would explain what he wanted to His Majesty. Otherwise, it is very unfavorable for my dynasty to talk like this, there is no boundlessness on his side, but my side is increasing the price step by step, and in the end, what kind of number will it become. The most terrible thing is that many ministers in our dynasty will think like this, today I gave 200,000, and it doesn't hurt to add 50,000, so let's do 250,000. If it doesn't work, it will become 300,000. So it will end up being a shameful treaty that will be infamous for eternity. The ministers don't care, just like Cao Cao went south, many civil servants of Eastern Wu wanted to make peace, they surrendered or officials, and it was Sun Quan, the lord of Wu, who suffered and became a prisoner. The reason is the same, at this time, the officials still enjoy wealth and nobility, but what future generations think, it is not that the minister is incompetent, but that His Majesty is incompetent and weak. β
Yan Shu's eyes opened, and he was so angry that he wanted to jump to his feet.
After putting on this big hat, that minister still dares to participate in the peace discussion?
And Zheng Lang was somewhat pointing at Sang and scolding Huai.
Zhao Zhen didn't consider Yan Shu's feelings, anyway, he only waited for a few months, and this discussion and peace had been grinding for a year, and he didn't care about these few months. After thinking about it, he agreed, but he was not at ease, and issued an edict to let the ministers of Shaanxi prepare for defense, in case Yuan Hao became angry and invaded the border again.
&n
bsp; Then Di Qing also arrived in Beijing, Zheng Lang was afraid of accidents, so he called Di Qing to his home and talked with him for a long time. It was mainly a topography and climate issue, and there was a lot of talk about it when the rebels were exterminated, but Zheng Lang talked about a new issue this time, that is, paying attention to hygiene.
The two armies fought, the flags were unfurled, the horses were galloping, the momentum was tragic, and it looked very mighty, in fact, as a later generation entered the barracks, far from what the descendants imagined, especially health, the soldiers were always facing the danger of death, that had to pay attention to hygiene, and sometimes the soldiers were crawling with fleas.
This has nothing to do in the north, but in the south, it is another major source of malaria and various diseases. Therefore, Di Qing ordered the three armies to pay attention to hygiene, and often used salt water for laundry and bathing, and the clothes and patches should also be soaked in salt water before washing, so as to carry out rough disinfection and reduce the possibility of disease. The main thing is that it is difficult to get started, and after staying for a few years to adapt to the local climate, there will be no problems of one kind or another.
This allowed Di Qing to lead the army south.
Looking at his back, Zheng Lang breathed a long sigh of relief, with Di Qing's departure, the peaceful time of the Song Dynasty was coming.
At this time, he suddenly felt the preciousness of peace.
The New Year came unconsciously, and Han Qi came up from Shaanxi, saying that the country's economy was tense, and it was meaningless to repair Shuiluocheng, so please stop Shuiluocheng.
For this Shuiluo City, many people didn't figure it out later, not to mention Zhao Zhen. Han Qi participated in the war several times, and he shocked the Western Xia, he said that there was no point in repairing, and it probably didn't make much sense, so he issued an edict to stop construction.
Zheng Lang didn't make a move, he actually couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, and the boss battle finally began. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to (.) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation. )
