Chapter 310: The Economy Determines Success or Failure

Liu Wei was very satisfied with the solution of the tax problem, looked at the group of internal affairs officials who seemed to have been pocketed by themselves, and talked about the truth that the people are the water, and we are all fish.

"My lord, but in this way, our income has been greatly reduced." Yuan Lian's facial features were almost together.

Liu Wei beckoned, Baoyu on the side handed over an account book, Cheng Yu took it and turned a few pages, and his expression of excitement swelled.

When other internal affairs officials saw Cheng Yu's changes, they knew that something good must happen, and they swarmed Cheng Yu around the core.

"Oh my God!" Zheng Yu was the first to shout, "Lord, is the value on this account real?" ”

Liu Wei smiled secretly in his heart, "Fake." "This value has subtracted the profit of the small treasury.

Seeing that the lord nodded easily, several internal affairs officials looked at Liu Wei with teary eyes, and the affection in their eyes, even if the Peach Blossom Pond was a thousand feet deep, it could not be described in case.

"Zhongde, this money is all yours, and it will be more next year." Liu Wei's voice was full of temptation.

"Enough, enough." Cheng Yu looked at the Zheng brothers beside him affectionately, his voice trembled, and Yuan Lian also looked at his lord with tenderness.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the money provided by the Heroes Association and Wangdu City is enough for us to use for a year, and the business affairs will be taken care of by the Heroes Association, and there will only be growth every year, please rest assured, we still have a big plan to make money this year."

The success of Zhongshan County's commerce has made everyone rich, and when the Silk Road is opened up and the Age of Exploration is opened, the circulation of goods will reach a new level.

Although it can't be circulated all over the world now, Asia has already made Liu Wei a financial giant, and after his monopoly on gold and silver reaches a certain level, he will launch a business war with lightning speed, so that the Wei family and other major families will all go bankrupt, the people will have nothing to eat, the army will have no grain and grass, what will the princes use to expand?

After reassuring his subordinates, Liu Wei talked about the two points he was most concerned about in internal affairs.

Land reform!

The matter of land is the most important thing in China, and the Han Dynasty distributed land directly to the peasants, but there is a big drawback - the wealthy families will carry out a large number of land annexations.

The peasants seemed to have land, but it would not be long before the big officials would take advantage of their power or money. or inducement at high prices or rhetoric to seize by force, and in a short time the land was gathered in the hands of a few.

A large number of peasants lost the land on which they depended for their livelihood and became displaced people, according to the Matthew effect, the wealthy families were rivaled by the country, which could affect the change of imperial power, and the displaced people were desperate, and once an uprising broke out, chaos would come.

The land is the root of the trouble, the peasants and the family are not on the same competitive line at all, no matter which dynasty, there is no essential change.

"How is the lord going to reform the land?" Cheng Yu knew that Liu Wei didn't like internal affairs, and he thought that the lord couldn't put forward any constructive suggestions, but now he didn't dare to despise it anymore, and began to humbly ask for advice.

"It's actually quite simple. That is, the newly measured terra nullius land, as well as the land that has been cleared, are all owned by our group, not given to private individuals, and these lands are given to the people who are willing to cultivate them on a per capita basis, and they have no ownership of the land. However, land can be leased indefinitely. ”

"The proportion of the land rent, the means of payment, depends on the number of years the people rent and the cultivation tools they bring to refine the formulation, this matter is led by Zhong De to formulate, if the tenant himself dies, it can be passed on, if it is determined not to rent, and then we will take it back."

Public ownership of land, this is a means of stability in wartime, and it is not too late to wait until the world is unified, and then it is not too late to slowly formulate a more scientific system.

"This law is really a good law for those who have never been seen before or since, this is the cultivator in disguise who has his land, and there are no drawbacks, great goodness!" Yuan Lian's eyes now looked at the lord with more and more admiration.

Liu Wei threw out the last topic of the day.

Storing grain for the people.

This measure made a group of officials scratch their heads, and Liu Wei had to patiently explain.

"Now that we have money, there will be a steady stream of money in business, I won't hide it from you, when the time is ripe, Feng is ready to fight an economic war and snatch the money of Chen Liuwei's family, if the Lu family in Jiangnan is disobedient, we can also fight this war in Jiangnan."

As soon as they heard that the lord was so domineering, the officials who did not have much research on economic warfare were also overjoyed.

"If we store grain for the people, the rent we collect will no longer be grain, but will be replaced by money."

Before Zhang Juzheng's reform, at that time, the imperial court, the taxes collected, all in kind, only to the Ming Dynasty Zhang Juzheng, the implementation of a whip law, the tax in kind, into money tax.

Liu Wei doesn't mind letting this process go ahead, everything that is beneficial to the people is a good means, and everything that can make the people rich is a clever trick.

Only those harsh taxes can be paid in kind, and many unreasonable miscellaneous taxes can be eliminated by paying taxes with money.

"We can tell the people of the world in a clear way, how much money you charge a year, and if any official wants to make any other harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, they can refuse to pay them, and then sue you, and you can all be Bao Qingtian."

"Lord, which talent is Bao Qingtian?" Cheng Yu frowned for a long time and couldn't figure out who this was, so he asked.

"This ...... That one...... Bao Qingtian is an immortal official in the sky who is in charge of injustices in the world. Liu Wei found that if you say too much, you will lose.

"The lord is a great talent!" Lu Qian finally spoke, "Storing grain for the people, the grain will not be consumed layer by layer, and the people's cherishing of food is more than life, and it is also very convenient for us to march and fight in the future, and it will be very convenient to collect grain on the spot, and there will be no shortage of food." ”

"That's right!" Cheng Yu also praised loudly, "Not to mention the transportation of grain, not to mention the disturbance of the people, the consumption of the people and escorts on the road is an astronomical amount, as long as the people become rich, storing grain for the people can solve this problem well." ”

Seeing that the matter was almost discussed, Liu Wei straightened his body and his voice became serious, "Next, each ministry will handle the affairs of its own department, and Feng will not interfere, but all things must be reported to Shangshutai, and after Shangshutai agrees and approves, it can be implemented." ”

Seeing that everyone nodded in agreement, the corners of Liu Wen's mouth raised, "Our military department is here today to carry out the military flag awarding ceremony, to make a reference for the other five departments, welcome everyone to watch the ceremony, and please correct any shortcomings." ”

After saying that, Liu Wei stood up, and a majestic air leaked out, and the atmosphere in the lobby immediately became solemn and solemn.

"The ceremony of awarding the military flag to the Ministry of War starts now!" Liu Wei used his voice with spiritual power, and he looked extremely domineering.

The military flag is the symbol and honor of an army, but also the soul of the army, the soldiers will unite under the guidance of the military flag, overcome all difficulties to strive for victory, Liu Wei began to implant the concept of the military flag into the army.
