The matter of personnel reform has been finalized, and the next step is to start the economic reform, specifically to reduce the taxes on the heads of the people of Liangzhou, and the collection of taxes is determined according to the harvest of the year. In the case of frequent natural disasters and frequent agricultural harvests, tax exemptions and exemptions will be provided in the event of unstable agricultural harvests; In the face of special disasters and in the case of extreme natural disasters and wars, there is no harvest, so that taxes can be exempted; In addition, some measures have been made for agricultural production: for example, encouraging farming, that is, farmers who are able to cultivate can get corresponding incentives from the government, and the greater the cultivation results, the more rewards they will receive; Encourage weaving, that is, women can also get government rewards, and the more achievements of weaving, the more rewards they will get; Encourage the development of animal husbandry, the more livestock you raise, the more encouragement you will get from the government;

Economically, taxes are levied on the fields of industry and commerce, handicrafts, economy and trade, but to a limited extent and not to be heavily taxed, and the existence of small traders and hawkers is allowed to give them room for development, but they must pay taxes, allow free buying and selling and commercial exchanges, and encourage commodity trading and trade exchanges, but pay corresponding taxes.

The third aspect of the economy is to impose restrictions on some monopoly industries, strictly prohibiting the sale of illegal salt and the hoarding of grain; In terms of cultivated land, there is a differential taxation, and the corresponding tax for those with more land will be more, and the tax for those with less arable land will also be less

In the final analysis, these policies and measures are to encourage the development of production, although the policy is good, people must implement it, in the final analysis, "the key lies in the people", Zhang himself is not the kind of corrupt officials, he does not want to get much benefit through these reforms, there is a saying that "his body is upright, do not order; His body is not right, although he will not be able to do it" It means to say. If the person who is an official acts and sets an example, he does not need to be severely punished, and the people below can also do their own thing, that is, like Guan Ning in the Han Dynasty, he ruled by inaction. There is no one in the territory who commits adultery; If the style of the official is not correct, although there is a decree, no one abides by it, and it is regarded as empty words, so Zhang Ji sets an example in this regard, sets an example in advance, and is dedicated to the public, and there is a saying that "those who seek justice will win, and those who do things because of the people will succeed", Zhang Ji's economic policies are all out of consideration for the people. There is only one purpose, that is, to revitalize Liangzhou through these reforms, so as to drive the production development of the entire Xiliang, so he firmly believes that his reforms will be successful.

Before the promulgation of the economic reform decree, Zhang first arranged for the people promoted by the previous personnel reform to serve in the new post, and he first held a farewell ceremony to see off the 40 county commanders who had been recruited before, and before seeing them off, he made some advice to everyone: "You are all people from cloth clothes, and now you stand out among many people through selection, and you are finally hired as county commanders." I hope that you can cherish these hard-won days and make some achievements. Of course, you are still young, and you have the opportunity to be promoted, so I hope you will work hard and be a good man. As long as I Zhang is still in Xiliang for a day, everyone will have a promotion day, of course, if I don't do a good job, I will naturally not condone, and finally I wish you all better and better on the new journey! ”

Zhang Ji's words not only lifted his spirit, but also sounded the alarm bell for these people, and at the same time placed hope on these people, these are all talents selected by him personally. This is like his own children, Zhang has more hope for them, he hopes that these people can do great things and work for themselves in the future.

And these 40 people listened to Zhang Ji's words are also enthusiastic, silently cheered up in their hearts, as a hot-blooded young man with the ideal of serving the country, everyone is more about a beautiful vision of the future, with the mission on their shoulders, these people embarked on the journey, Zhang both sent out of Liangzhou more than 10 miles, on the way he continued to discuss and communicate with everyone, as a young man he is still the same age with everyone, and naturally has a common topic, he hopes more that he is not a superior nor a leader but a friend of everyone, He doesn't want to be lonely as the king, but to integrate into a life with a sense of collective belonging, maybe so that he can get rid of the loneliness and loneliness in his heart.

Reform immediately put on the agenda, the whole Liangzhou earthquake again, the streets and alleys, villages and villages outside the village began to talk about it, everyone for Zhang Ji's policy measures or more believed, the happiest are the farmers, reduce the tax on the head of the people of Liangzhou, the collection of taxes according to the harvest of the year, such as agriculture in the case of smooth weather and granules, taxes are not reduced; In the case of frequent natural disasters and frequent agricultural harvests, tax exemptions and exemptions will be provided in the event of unstable agricultural harvests; In the face of special disasters and in the case of extreme natural disasters and wars, there is no harvest, so that taxes can be exempted; In addition, some measures have been made for agricultural production: for example, encouraging farming, that is, farmers who are able to cultivate can get corresponding incentives from the government, and the greater the cultivation results, the more rewards they will receive; Encourage weaving, that is, women can also get government rewards, and the more achievements of weaving, the more rewards they will get; Encourage the development of animal husbandry, the more livestock you raise, the more encouragement you will get from the government; These measures make the farmers all rejoice, this is Liangzhou since ancient times has never had a thing, originally by the landlord's exploitation of the tax so heavy now can finally be easier, life has a rush, everyone's enthusiasm is more sufficient, for the days to come are more full of expectations.

Just when Zhang Ji was ready to carry out drastic economic reforms, Liu Bei and Zhu Jun and others came to Liangzhou, first of all, Liu Bei made a promulgation of the appointment of Zhang Ji and others, Zhang Jiyuan was unable to attend the meeting of the imperial court in Xiliang, and he was appointed as the great Si Nong at the previous court meeting, this appointment happened a year ago, but he did not know it in Xiliang, of course, the court did not send a document to him, this time Liu Bei came to Xiliang to implement this matter together, Zhang was crowned Dasi Nong, Jia Xu was crowned in the middle of the service, This is really unexpected by the two, especially after Zhang Ji took power in Guan Yu, this position is soaring, from a county guard Qingyun to the position of Zhengyipin, ranking the third duke has become the great Si Nong, although he has not yet stepped into the imperial court half a step, but such an appointment has fully demonstrated that Xiliang is by no means his long-term residence, and he will be stationed in the capital in the future to take on a big responsibility. However, at the moment, he must work hard to do Xiliang's affairs well, so as to live up to Guan Yu, a virtuous brother, who values and cultivates him.

Jia Xu was crowned as a position in the service, although this position is not too prominent, but the importance is self-evident, this is the prime minister's secret, that is to say, Jia Xu's future responsibility is Guan Yu's secretary or think tank. In the future, he will inevitably be stationed in Beijing to assist Guan Yu, which also shows Guan Yu's respect and recognition of him, although Jia Xu followed Guan Yu for such a short time, but in such a short period of time, Guan Yu promoted him exceptionally, which also fully shows Guan Yu's discernment, and Jia Xu is also very pleased to be able to obtain such recognition from Guan Yu, it can be said that Guan Yu has the grace of knowing him, how dare Jia Xu slack!

After explaining this matter, Liu Bei and Zhu Jun then listened to Zhang Ji's work report. Zhang Ji will take office in Xiliang for half a year since the work of the two made a report, mainly in terms of personnel reform, Liu Bei and Zhu Jun after hearing about Zhang Ji's work to give full affirmation, Zhang Ji in the past six months in Xiliang work in favor of the two people, the purpose of the trip and Zhang Ji made an explanation, Zhang both to Liu Bei and others to welcome the arrival, Zhang both for the reform of the imperial court is also very praised, which coincides with their original intentions.
