Chapter 29 Push forward the reform of the tax law!
"Your Highness, this ......"
When the aroma of oil overflowed and the spicy barbecue skewer was handed to everyone, everyone subconsciously glanced at each other, and then swallowed a big mouthful of saliva in unison......
"Come on! How about tasting the spices of the Western Regions that this king stumbled upon in Biansai? ”
Zhao Zheng smiled and raised his hand, signaling everyone to taste it to their heart's content, and then unceremoniously took a bite, chewing it with satisfaction, and without waiting for everyone's reaction, he had already taken the lead in moving!
"Thank you, Your Highness, for the reward!"
Seeing that His Royal Highness had demonstrated it in person, how could they have any more concerns, they immediately bowed down and thanked them, and then immediately picked up the bamboo skewers, took a mouthful of mouth-watering barbecue meat from it, and chewed it instantly.
"Hmm......"
Suddenly, an indescribable sensation of strange stimulation burst out from the mouth!
Everyone closed their eyes slightly, enjoying the unprecedented new taste brought by this magical spice from the Western Regions!
"Your Highness, this spice ...... What a unique flavor! ”
Zhuge secretly immediately praised it, and admired His Highness's vision and keenness.
As he spoke, he subconsciously glanced at the bamboo skewer in his hand, but found that in the blink of an eye, the barbecue in his hand had already been counted, and the tongue was still full of spicy feeling.
"Yes! Your Highness! If this spice is used well, it will definitely set off a gastronomic boom in the land of Kyushu! ”
Hawking was even more eager, even though his mouth was hot, he still couldn't hide the excitement in his heart!
Such a special spice in the Western Regions made Hawking think of the huge business opportunities behind it for the first time through this small skewer of barbecue!
Such a delicacy, if it can be operated well, and then take the opportunity to monopolize the right to operate and trade spices in the Western Regions, what an immeasurable huge amount of commercial profits it will be?!
"Haha! No hurry, no hurry! You have to eat the rice one bite at a time, and you have to walk step by step......"
Facing everyone's excited expressions, Zhao Zheng just smiled and waved his hand, but he already had a complete and detailed plan in his heart.
"At present, Qinchuan's top priority is the dredging of the Tiger Prison's business road! When a trading company was first established, there were great restrictions on manpower and funds......"
Seeing that His Royal Highness King Qin had arranged the business with a solemn expression, even if everyone was greedy in their hearts, they put down the barbecue in their hands and listened carefully to His Highness's arrangements.
"I am not in a hurry to operate these spices, but I will focus on the business of Tiger Prison and strive for it in a year...... No! Completely open up the Tiger Prison Business Road within half a year!! ”
Zhao Zhengdun gritted his teeth and directly reduced the opening time of the Tiger Prison Business Road from one year as originally planned to only half a year!
As a result, the burden on Hawking's shoulders will be even heavier, and the capital and manpower needed to complete this huge project will naturally increase!
"Strategist, you have full authority to coordinate this matter! We must use the strength of the whole county to help the trading company completely open up the Tiger Prison Business Road within half a year!! ”
Zhao Zheng naturally understood in his heart that if he wanted to complete such a huge project in just half a year, it would be almost an impossible task for Hawking alone and the newly established Huaxia Trading Company!
Therefore, such a major event requires the strength of the whole county, go all out, and cooperate with the trading company!
"Whoa!"
In an instant, Zhuge Dian and Hawking had solemn faces, and they all claimed!
"Dredging the Tiger Prison Business Road, this is one of them! Now that the county's disaster relief has been properly handled, the tax law reform is ...... It's officially on the agenda! ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the courtyard was shocked, and their colors changed in unison!
It's just because they all know in their hearts that the tax law reform that His Royal Highness said is a brand-new tax system that wants to use a knife against the entire Qinchuan clan and cut meat from the landlords and wealthy families-paving into acres!
Such an eternal plan can be said to affect the whole body!
At present, it has only been more than three months since he entered Qinchuan, is it suitable to make such a big move and be the enemy of the entire Qinchuan clan? ?
"Your Highness! Tax law reform...... In the opinion of the minister, it may be possible to suspend this matter for two years! ”
Zhuge Dark, a veteran military advisor, was the first to speak out to dissuade him.
Now that he has just entered Qinchuan, he has only finished dealing with the matter of disaster relief and helping the people, and the treasury is empty and the county affairs are erosive, if he provokes a war at this time and openly fights against the Qinchuan clan, is it a bit too hasty? !
"Yes, Your Highness, we still don't know much about the Qinchuan clan, so I took the liberty of mentioning this matter...... I'm afraid of chaos! ”
As a wealthy family, how can Hawking not know the strength of the family in these places and the depth of the foundation!
It can be said that every family has private soldiers, every household has a complete range of knives and bows, and the population of the clan is often tens of thousands of people, and the tenants and farmers under its jurisdiction are countless, countless!
To put it bluntly, with the order of the patriarch, even a small army of thousands of people can be quickly assembled!
Even if this kind of small army is empty in numbers and lacks equipment, it can be regarded as a peasant soldier at most, and it cannot be compared with a serious military that has been on the battlefield at all.
But it's better than the numbers!
Although at the moment, each of these clans is honest and seems to be extremely well-behaved.
But that is all without really touching their own interests!
Although His Royal Highness forced the Qinchuan clan to donate food before, it was also under the premise that he personally took the lead, and donating some food would not hurt his own muscles and bones.
However, the reform of the tax law is very different from donating grain!
Donating grain is just a discount for some grain, but the tax system is asking for the life of the world!
If it is really as His Royal Highness said, the land will be divided into acres, the county land will be counted, and the tax will not be paid on the capitation, but on the acre of land!
Such a fierce tax system can be said to have slashed at the seven inches of all the worlds, almost the same as death!
Even Hawking himself asked himself, if Quyang County is too conservative to act like this, change the tax system to apportionment into acres, and calculate taxes based on fields!
Then the one who suffered the most was naturally their first clan in Quyang, the Huo family!
If this is the case, I am afraid that my Huo clan will be the first to take the lead against this Taishou, how can I accept such a fateful move?!
Therefore, in Hawking's view, such an important plan for the ages must be slowly planned and wait and see what happens!
How can you ignore it and act willfully?
If he really acted rashly, it led to a mutiny overnight, so that many clans united in revolt...... But what should I do?!
"Brother Huang! I know that you are eager to revitalize Qin Chuan, but it is better to be extremely cautious about such a major matter! As...... Write to my father, but what about consulting with him? ”
Although Zhao Yun is ignorant, she also knows the stakes of this matter, and the impact will be extremely far-reaching!
Therefore, while worrying, I couldn't help but think of my father, and thought that such a major change should be discussed with my father!
Zhao Zheng was stunned when he heard this, but he just shook his head and did not see any response.
"Your Highness, the old slave thinks ...... You should also think twice about this. ”
Gao De, the old butler who was standing on the side, couldn't help but speak.
How many years has he been with the king's side, how could he not know how much turmoil will be stirred up by the matter of spreading the land into the acre?
His Royal Highness is only twelve years old, if something really happens, how should he deal with it on the spot?!
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Zhao Zheng couldn't help but glance at him, but he still didn't speak, but he couldn't help pacing in the courtyard, listening to everyone's almost one-sided words of persuasion, and his heart felt heavy as if he was burdened with a thousand catties.
"Your Highness! Think twice!! ”
Seeing this, everyone looked at each other, and then fell to the ground in unison, shouting incessantly.
"Harm...... How could this king not know that the reform of the tax law is very powerful? ”
Seeing this, Zhao Zheng couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then sighed.
"But have you ever thought that it is such a matter of great importance, if you really want to make it happen, it must be the power of thunder! It has to be a cruel method! You can't do it unless you preemptively strike! ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the courtyard was stunned, and then they thought about it and seemed to have an understanding.
"Such a critical move, even if you plan it slowly, look for opportunities and serve...... Will those clans be obedient and let the system be reformed? ”
As soon as the words fell, everyone was even more silent and speechless.
Seem...... That's true!
Such a drastic move, no matter what means are taken, whether it is gentle or tough, it is impossible for the Qinchuan clan to let it go and be willing to give up their ancestral inheritance!
And the more land they own, the more powerful they are, the more intolerable they are, and even accept such tax law reforms!
Thinking about it this way, if we really take a gentle policy, will it be a bad thing, so that these clans who have great appeal in the local area will have more time to prepare, and even cause some great disasters that are difficult to end!
Therefore, what His Highness said was heard in the hearts of everyone, and he lost his mind for a while.
But I don't know whether to take a gentle strategy or a tough way to attack with thunder?
It seems that it can be done, and it seems that it is not possible!
It all seems to make sense, but it seems that there are great drawbacks!
This...... But how do you choose!!
Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but look at His Royal Highness King Qin, how to deal with this matter in the end has to be decided by His Royal Highness!
"Strategist...... I don't know what you think? ”
Zhao Zhengda frowned, and finally looked at the military advisor Zhuge and asked secretly.
To be honest, Zhao Zheng's heart was also a mess, at such a critical juncture, even if he had made a decision in advance, he was even fully prepared.
But when it came to the end, he was still inevitably a little apprehensive, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
"Back to Your Highness, such a tax reform policy of apportioning into the mu is a major event for the country and the people!"
Zhuge secretly immediately gave up, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he laid an unshakable solid foundation for this tax reform.
"Therefore, when His Royal Highness first proposed this policy, the minister already knew that such a great plan was not whether it could be done, but when!"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was bowed, and they obviously agreed with the merits and demerits of the acre in their hearts.
"The minister's words of postponement are because His Royal Highness has just entered Qinchuan and does not have complete control over the affairs of the county, so he made this decision, lest he suddenly change."
Zhuge secretly shook the feather fan, and slowly analyzed it in a clear manner.
"But His Highness acts in a very orderly manner, often plotting and then acting, and rarely recklessly! Therefore, there are only a few words, and the minister is determined that His Royal Highness must have made arrangements and dealt with the sudden change in time! Hence ......"
Speaking of this, Zhuge secretly looked at His Highness's eyes and couldn't help but be full of admiration.
And the rest of the people suddenly realized that they were just peeping at the leopard in the tube, and their knowledge was really too shallow!
With His Highness's meticulous thinking and careful planning, how could he act stupidly and recklessly?!
"Hahahaha! The military advisor really understands me! ”
When Zhao Zheng heard this, he couldn't help laughing!
But he looked at the military advisor Zhuge who was slightly bowing, and couldn't help but sigh.
"If this king dares to act like this, he has already made careful arrangements! What I just asked was just hesitation! ”
After that, Zhao Zheng suddenly waved his sleeve robe, as if he had made up his mind!
"But after listening to the words of the military advisor, he finally made a decision! Since the tax reform is imperative, there will be such a move after all! It's better to have a long pain than a short pain, but it's better to strike first!! ”
Speaking of this, Zhao Zheng's face was rarely cold, and his eyes showed a bit of ruthlessness!
"This king wants to take a look, these Qinchuan clans...... Could it be that it can be turned upside down?! ”
At this moment, Zhao Zheng finally has a decision in his heart, but he is unstoppable, and he must push the tax reform!
I don't know when, Zhao Zheng has experienced ups and downs since he crossed over, and his heart has become more and more cold.
Maybe it's the ditches full of dead babies......
Maybe it's the people who are yellow-faced and thin......
Maybe it's the officials who are on the vegetarian table......
Maybe it's the clans in the fish country......
Or maybe it's just for their own self-interest......
When Zhao Zheng made a strong gesture to implement the tax reform at this moment, in his heart, he had already made unscrupulous preparations and blood-stained ground!
After the thought was understood, he threw off his sleeve robe and said solemnly!
"Within three days! This king wants detailed information about all the Qinchuan clans!! ”
Everyone in the courtyard was awe-inspiring, and immediately knelt on the ground and sang in unison!
"Whoa!"
