|->?“ Steward Zhou,"

Li Zheng looked at Zhou Fei with a smile and said, "I happen to have something to look for you here, and I was originally going to take the time to go to Fu's Dock Fort next, but now that Steward Zhou is here, I won't have to go on an extra trip." ”

"The master is in a hurry!"

As soon as Zhou Fei exited, Li Zheng couldn't help but be stunned.

Master?

In an instant, Li Zheng was stunned.

That's right, since Nuro told Zhang Shan and others about his pre-receipt of the Captain Huqiang, there was no reason not to tell Fu Xie about the property.

Looking at the table of Zhou Fei, and then thinking about the changes in the county government, presumably Zhou Lin and the others have already done things properly, right?

Thinking of this, Li Zheng turned his gaze to Zhou Lin.

Zhou Lin smiled indifferently and said, "I hope that the master will atone for his sins." After the subordinates got the news from Nuro, they wanted to surprise their master, so they took the lead and got things done. ”

When Li Zheng heard this, his mind turned twice, but he smiled and said approvingly: "Not bad." ”

Seeing this, Zhang Shan, Zhou Lin and the others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts.

When they decided to do these things, a few people didn't think much about it. But after doing it, I thought that their behavior seemed to be cumming. Only the master has always been the master of the house slave, where can any house slave dare to advocate for the master to be the master?

If you meet a psychologically sensitive head of the family, they will inevitably be unable to eat and walk around. Although, they are also well-intentioned.

When Li Zheng noticed this situation, he was also a little uncomfortable.

It's just a remodeling of the mansion, that's nothing. Small things can be decided by themselves, but big things must be decided by Li Zheng himself. Regarding the Fu family's property, it is not a trivial matter, it is a huge pie that far exceeds Li Zheng's own industry, and it is an important part of Li Zheng's complete rule over Lingzhou!

Regardless of whether there will be a business trip or not, it is intolerable for a person in a position of authority to be beyond his control.

But in the blink of an eye, Li Zheng was a little relieved.

Although the subordinates' practices are excessive, in the final analysis, they are still thinking about him, the master. In essence, there is nothing wrong with sharing worries for the Lord.

Furthermore, Li Zheng thought that his real foundation was actually the system in his mind, followed by the Shenzhou grassland. As for Lingzhou County, to be honest, it's nothing.

It is okay not to be angry, but you can't help but teach them a lesson, so that this kind of thing doesn't happen again in the future.

The smile on Li Zheng's face quickly retracted, and seeing this, everyone in the hall hurriedly sat upright.

"This harvest is quite big, and everyone has their own merits."

Saying that, Li Zheng pondered for a moment and said, "I have decided that before the imperial court sends a new county commander, Zhou Fei will be in charge of Lingzhou affairs!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone in the hall immediately became exciting.

Without waiting for them to react, Li Zheng said again: "Zhou Lin is still in charge of the affairs of the Shenzhou grassland caravan, and he will do his best to expand his influence and add foundation to the grassland. ”

"Wang Laohu will go back to the grassland with me tomorrow and transfer Xu Xiaojiu to Lingzhou to be responsible for recruit training."

"The white wolf is in charge of Lingzhou's military affairs, and Zhang Shan is the deputy. Xu Xiaojiu is in charge of recruit training, and Nuro is the deputy. ”

After this succession, everyone in the hall kept their mouths shut, not daring to speak.

For example, Zhou Fei and others, who had just become Li Zheng's family slaves, all became the head of a county. Zhang Shan and other old people only became other people's deputies.

This made them a little unacceptable for a while.

Li Zheng just gave them a small lesson, to let them understand what to do and what not to do. It is necessary to strangle this budding in the cradle!

As for the appointment of Zhou Fei to take charge of Lingzhou's government affairs, Li Zheng has his own considerations.

If this matter is not out of the moment, Li Zheng will put Zhou Lin in this position. Without him, Li Zheng's subordinates, only Zhou Lin has this ability.

However, Zhou Fei is now his person, and Li Zheng has also dealt with Zhou Fei a few times. Moreover, Li Zheng believes that Zhou Fei has that ability.

"Alright, that's the end of the appointment."

Li Zheng shouted: "Don't complain, you can't relax, you can do what you have to do." I remember your credits, and I remember your mistakes. ”

Everyone shook their heads in unison.

"I am not satisfied with many aspects of Lingzhou, so what I say next, Zhou Fei, you have to remember."

Li Zheng said to Zhou Fei: "From now on, Zhou Fei, you are the chief political officer of Lingzhou, so the first problem to be solved is the problem of population and land. ”

"First of all, you have to keep a thorough account of all the households in Lingzhou. Although Zhou Lin and others have done it once, I believe that among the powerful households, there must be a lot of concealment. ”

"Once the population is counted, it should be divided by category. For all peasants and ordinary people, it is necessary to ensure that everyone has their own land, and ensure that no one is allowed to live in Lingzhou. As for the land, it will be distributed from the land given to me by the Fu family, and if it is not enough, it can also be cultivated. ”

"Secondly, there is taxation. All excesses and miscellaneous taxes will be exempted, the agricultural tax for ordinary peasants will be set at 30 percent, and the commercial tax will also be set at 20 percent for the transactions of shops and tenants, and the agricultural tax will be formally implemented from next year, and the commercial tax will be implemented from now on. ”

"There must be a lot of resistance in terms of taxation, but don't worry, if there is anyone who does not comply, either let him leave Lingzhou, or notify the white wolf to use the sword soldiers!"

"Inform all owners of Lingzhou, the tax generated by agriculture and commerce, in addition to the army, the remaining part will be used for various public facilities in Lingzhou, education, medical and other public welfare undertakings."

"In addition, the traffic problem of the entire Lingzhou must also be solved. All roads in Lingzhou City should be kept dredged, and the roads leading from Lingzhou City to the various towns under its jurisdiction should also be repaired. ”

"Finally, there is the issue of hygiene. In Lingzhou City, to maintain good hygiene, the garbage on the streets and the manure of cattle and horses must be disposed of. Then a sewer must be built, and all kinds of sewage generated in Lingzhou City are forbidden to be dumped on the streets, and it must be discharged along the sewer out of Lingzhou City. ”

After listening to this, Zhou Fei secretly kept a few things in his heart, and prepared to write them down after the meeting so as not to forget them.

At the same time, he asked several questions.

"Lord, my subordinates have a few questions."

"The first is to count the population. There must have been some hiding among the powerful families, such as domestic soldiers, domestic slaves, and tenants. If they are blocked, what should their subordinates do? ”

"The second is the distribution of land property, how much should each household or family share appropriately? Are the towns under the jurisdiction of Lingzhou also according to the same standards? ”

"Third, there is about taxation. The agricultural tax is 30%, and it is reasonable to remove the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, but it may go against the rules of the imperial court. As for the commercial tax, that is, the municipal tax and levy, the tax rate has always been very low, at most no more than 20 taxes of one or twenty percent, is it too high? ”

"Fourth, where does the labor for building roads come from?"

"Fifth, what is a sewer? To clean up the garbage on the streets and the manure of cattle, sheep and horses, is it necessary to set up a new administration? ”

After listening to Zhou Fei's question, Li Zheng couldn't help but be happy.

This week, Fei really has some ability, and the questions raised are all to the point.

"For the powerful and powerful who don't cooperate, you just have to find the white wolf, and you can consider what to do." Li Zheng muttered: "As for the land issue, the basic land yield of each household is set at ten mu, based on four people, and for each additional person, five mu will be added. ”

"As for taxes," Li Zheng couldn't help but ponder when he said this.

Listening to Zhou Fei's meaning, there is no opinion on agricultural taxes. However, when it comes to commercial taxes, there is a big gap. Li Zheng did not expect that the commercial tax rate in this era would be so low, no more than five percent. After thinking about it, I probably understood it a little more.

First, commerce was not prosperous enough in this era. Second, many commercial activities, especially with regard to transportation, were too costly - there were no railways and roads in those days, and there were no large transport machines.

In this way, it is understandable that the commercial tax levied is so low.

So he said, "Well, I don't understand the situation." In this way, the commercial tax is tentatively set at 20 taxes and 1, that is, half percent. As for the agricultural tax that may break the rules of the imperial court, you don't have to worry about that. Special case, besides, Liangzhou is like this now, and the imperial court has no time to take care of it in a short time. ”

"The labor needed to build the roads, you can unite the displaced and the common people who have lost their fields - now it is either the season to sow or the land is allocated, and these people have no choice. It's better to work for relief, build roads and let them live at the same time. As for the food money needed, it will be taken from the property donated by the Fu family, if it is not enough, you can raise funds from the big families in the city, and say that I, Li Zheng, will borrow them. ”

"As for cleaning up the dirt in the city, it is natural to set up a special department to recruit some people, start working with money, and let them be responsible for cleaning up immediately every day."

Then, Li Zheng explained the concept of sewers again, and Zhou Fei chewed carefully for a while, and then bowed and retreated.

After the government affairs were arranged, Li Zheng changed his words and gave instructions to the white wolf in military affairs.

First of all, we must do our best to train the newly recruited 3,000 recruits, and then pull them out to find horse bandits and bandits to practice. At the same time of military training, the law and order in Lingzhou were cleared.

Secondly, the elites who participated in this war must also not relax. It is possible to pick out the tricky bandits in the territory, and at the same time divide a part, Li Zheng intends to extend his tentacles of influence to the grassland of the Hetao in the north. Even if you can't find out what the Huns on the grassland are like in a short period of time, you must find out the Hun forces in the northern area. Of course, this needs to be done covertly.

Third, they also had to scatter several light cavalry to roam around Lingzhou, keeping an eye on the movements of the Han Sui rebels at any time, and ensuring that they could understand the situation when war might come.

There are so many military affairs, Li Zheng's instructions are very detailed, and the white wolf and a few others dare not slack off, so keep it in mind.

Next is the business issue that Zhou Lin is responsible for.

The caravans of the Shenzhou Grassland must do their best to expand their influence.

In Li Zheng's plan, the role of the caravan was not only to collect money, but more importantly, it was also to serve as the important task of the intelligence system - to collect all favorable and unfavorable information from all over the country and quickly convey it to Li Zheng's ears.

Therefore, the wider the scope of the commercial trade influence of Shenzhou Grassland, the greater the benefit to Li Zheng.

After arranging everything properly, Li Zheng asked Zhou Lin to notify the powerful and powerful families in the city and let them gather in the mansion at night, and then waved everyone back.

Before the dinner began, Li Zheng gathered the management of Lingzhou County, that is, the cadres who were attracted by the recruitment order more than ten days ago and entered the management of Lingzhou, and gave up after a general understanding and encouragement.

The current management of Lingzhou, except for those who have a close relationship with Li Zheng, is not worthy of his too serious treatment.

At the next dinner, Lingzhou Haoqiang was all present. In front of these heroes, Li Zheng first told him about his big defeat of Han Sui, the rescue of Fu Xie, the gift of Fu Xie's family wealth, and the appointment of the captain of the Qiang Guard, which severely shocked these wall-riding factions with their eyes on the top of their heads.

Then he talked about the plan to count the population, tax revenue, and transform Lingzhou, and expressed a tough attitude.

But even so, except for a few people who expressed their support, most of the others were silent.

Li Zheng had already known what they were doing. Knowing that these people don't shed tears when they don't see the coffin, and are unwilling to give up the slightest benefit, they don't say much, and they will cry when the time comes.

Throughout this banquet, that Li Boran and Li Lao didn't say anything, and didn't say a few words. Even Li Zheng didn't quite understand the old man's thoughts.

But it doesn't matter, under the general trend, no one can stop it. And in Lingzhou, now Li Zheng is the general trend!
