Chapter 465: When the Liquidation is in Progress

If there is no force to support law enforcement, reform is simply a fart, and those landlords who are scattered in the wilderness have many deep-rooted clan forces, and if they violently resist the law and are not rectified, the entire reform will not be able to continue.

The current reform in various provinces was directly transferred by the central army to sit in the town. At the same time, the armed police force is also in place, and there are armed police units stationed at the provincial, prefectural, and county levels, and when the armed police force is insufficient, it will ask the central army for support, especially for some stubborn thorns, and even pillboxes, artillery, and a large number of clan members. This kind of thorn is not very easy for the armed police force to deal with.

But as soon as the Central Army arrived, it was full of chickens and dogs.

Those landlords had artillery, and the Central Army had more. Moreover, it is also the most advanced artillery, and in a few strokes, the earthen artillery of those landlords will be bombarded into the sky.

Basically, every time there is a reform, a large group of landlords have defied the law.

In recent years, the information was not very developed, and those landlords did not know about the previous reforms, and many people had already been strongly sanctioned by Zhu Youxiao. This will still be a thorn in the head, and it will still be sanctioned by the imperial court by force.

The reform brought new laws, a new tax system. It is undeniable that China is a very large country, and the situation varies from place to place. If the Legalist system is simply and rudely implemented, it is easy to cause problems.

However, the essence of the system promoted by Zhu Youxiao is to protect the interests of ordinary people, so the taxation and so on of this reform have little to do with ordinary people. As for the wealthy landlords, workshops, and factory owners, they were not allowed to be taxed softly.

As for whether those people will be forced to rebel, this Zhu Youxiao doesn't care. Even if they are forced to rebel, the base of this group is not large, and it will not cause large-scale social unrest. Even if there is unrest, it lacks a popular base and can be suppressed quickly.

At the same time, under normal circumstances, those people will not be forced to rebel, even if they can't pay taxes, the imperial court will only confiscate part of the land, factories and other ways to deal with it, and it is impossible to arrest people and put them in prison, and then severely torture them or something. The punishment of the imperial court, in response to the problem of not being able to pay taxes, is not severe.

If ordinary people can't afford to pay taxes, the current imperial court system prohibits all rough law enforcement. Moreover, ordinary people now have no taxes, and homesteaders and tenant farmers are exempt from taxes. What ordinary workers need to pay, that is, personal income tax, is usually those who work in enterprises, and they need to pay this money. Freelance or something, basically don't pay this tax, the government won't come to the door.

Nowadays, the groups that are taxed by the imperial court are all rich groups.

It is those landlords, workshops, factories, shops, etc., who are all rich groups, who cannot afford to pay taxes and have assets there. At the same time, the imperial court abolished the conscription system, and the common people did not have to serve conscription in the future.

In terms of taxation in the imperial court, there will be nothing for ordinary people to do in the future, and many ordinary people will not even have to deal with tax matters all the time.

It is equivalent to this new tax system, no one can afford to pay taxes. No one will starve to death because of paying taxes, and it is impossible to force ordinary people to rebel.

As for those who have to pay taxes, they all have assets there. If they can't pay their taxes, then don't be this class! If you want to be an ordinary person, you don't have to pay taxes directly, as long as you pay some value-added tax indirectly. The tax-paying classes that have been eliminated will naturally be replaced.

It can be said that the tax system before and after the reform has made a 180-degree turn. In the past, when the privileged classes were exempt from tax and the industrial and commercial taxes were not levied much, the emphasis was on the collection of industrial and commercial taxes, and at the same time, the emphasis was on the collection of agricultural taxes on large landowners.

The shackles that pressed on the common people were directly removed, and the reform of the imperial court quickly won the support of the majority of ordinary people.

Under the new tax system, the gap between rich and poor has narrowed somewhat. Of course, in essence, it cannot solve the problem of the gap between the rich and the poor, and the imperial court still has a long way to go to solve the gap between the rich and the poor. But at the very least, the society of the Ming Dynasty was not as unfair as it used to be.

The essential reason for the demise of the Ming Dynasty was the unfairness of the system, which distorted the mentality of the people of the entire country. In order to keep their status and wealth, the privileged class does not want Bilian. Ordinary people were cynical and began to worship money.

After the world goes down, it is no wonder that civil officials and military generals are crazy to dig into the corners of the country.

In general, there are too many egoists, and there is no public morality. Many people, regardless of what happens after their death, even if the flood is monstrous, it doesn't matter.

The reforms implemented by Zhu Youxiao this time, vested interest groups have been liquidated by the imperial court, so that the atmosphere of the Ming provinces is positive.

For those proletarians who were destitute, the imperial court had a civil affairs bureau to ensure that the people would not starve to death, and at the same time had an immigration policy.

If they immigrate to overseas and other places, they will be able to get a lot of land, so as to complete the basic allocation of resources, so that they can have the conditions to achieve a well-off life through their own efforts.

The success of the reform is due to the support of ordinary people that the localities can be quickly stabilized. Let all the forces that want to rebel have no mass base. At the same time, it was suppressed by force, and since the reform, there have been two large-scale rebellions, all of which have been suppressed by force by the imperial court.

As for the landlords and heroes who resisted the new tax law, there were too many groups, and they were all cleaned up by the imperial court with the central army and the armed police force.

Today's Ming Dynasty, that is, the remaining southwest part, has not completed the reform.

However, in order to take care of the people in the southwest, Zhu Youxiao announced in the 15th year of the Apocalypse that the southwest would be exempted from agricultural taxes for one year, and at the same time sent a large number of inspection teams.

As a result, as soon as these local officials took action, they were reported by the secret investigation team. It didn't take long for the factory guards to come down and take people, dismiss these local officials and investigate them, and a large number of corrupt officials were escorted to the capital to be beheaded.

If it was said that during the reform in the past, because there were corrupt officials everywhere in the country, Zhu Youxiao did not dare to liquidate too harshly. But now it is different, now that most of the country has completed the reform, the Han Emperor Party has become the absolute political leading force, and at the same time, in terms of capital, it has the support of the national capital consortium, Zhu Youxiao can now let go of his hands to liquidate those corrupt officials.

"Your Majesty, the prison is almost full of corrupt officials and corrupt officials." The secretary of the criminal department told Zhu Youxiao on this day, and Zhu Youxiao pondered: "It's already the autumn queen, and it's time to catch up." How many people have been taken in? ”

"There are more than 2,300 people in total."

"Send someone to review it, and if the evidence is insufficient, it will be taken into custody for the time being, and all the evidence that is conclusive will be cut." Zhu Youxiao ordered that he was now afraid of creating too many unjust and wrongful cases, so the death penalty needed to be reported to the imperial court, and the imperial court sent someone to review it before the execution could be carried out.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"
