Chapter 9: Deliberations of Monarchs and Ministers
As an emperor, especially the emperor at the beginning of the game, you have to be careful in your calculations, the so-called governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, and the money must be used on the blade, but 30 gold is smashed down, you tell me that the efficiency has only improved so little?
Ren Tian instinctively felt that something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong, so he could only slow down the matter for the time being.
After dealing with another government matter, Ren Tian asked again: "The rest of Aiqing, do you have a performance?" ”
"Your Majesty, the minister has his own music."
Situ Zhang Guangzhi stood up.
"Play."
"Yesterday, the minister ordered the two counties of Ping County and Nanxian County to carry out a population inventory, and learned from Nanxian County that there are about 1,000 households with a population that are not people of our new country, but people from other countries who have wandered to our new country and settled in Nanxian County. However, more than 1,000 households have not paid taxes, and even more than 500 of them have not been registered, which is an act of tax evasion and violates the laws of our new country. May I ask Your Majesty, what should be done with this population of more than 1,000 households? ”
Ren Tianyi frowned: "Do you have any suggestions?" ”
"Your Majesty, there are no more than three ways to deal with these foreign populations. First, they were ordered to join the new country, and a policy was adopted to break up these thousand families and divide them into Nanxian and Heping counties, as long as they were assimilated by our country in time, but this would take a long time, and it might adversely affect the security of the two counties, and more soldiers might be needed to assist in law and order.
Second, kill chickens and monkeys to set an example. Now the world is in turmoil, the homeless people are extremely common, and tax evasion is commonplace, but this is a heavy blow to the new country, so the direct execution of these thousands of homeless people to deter others can effectively reduce this kind of tax evasion, but it may damage the reputation of His Majesty.
Third, banishment. These 1,000 families of displaced people, who are not citizens of our new country, occupy the land of our new country, do not register the population, do not pay taxes, and even collude with local officials to directly exile them and not allow them to enter the territory of our new country again. In this way, it can effectively reduce the impact of displaced people on our new country, have a stabilizing effect on China's public security, and at the same time have a role in improving the morale of the rest of the people. ”
After the three suggestions were spoken, Zhang Guangzhi stopped talking and quietly waited for Ren Tian to make a decision.
These three decisions, in fact, have their own pros and cons, each of which is not easy to choose, such as assimilation, the benefits of assimilation are to increase the population and increase taxes, but the disadvantage is that it affects public security, and even theft and robbery will occur, and even the people of the new country will have friction, and more soldiers will be sent to patrol.
The second decision is a bit brutal, killing one to make an example can effectively reduce tax evasion and increase taxes, but at the same time, it is extremely bad for the reputation of the new country, I am afraid that the country's prestige will directly become negative, and cause a sharp decline in the number of displaced people.
Ren Tian doesn't know what the country's prestige does for the time being, but as long as this decision is made, the country's prestige will directly become negative, and again, Ren Tian himself is not such a brutal person, executing a thousand people, it is too cruel, so this article is directly abolished.
The third policy of exile is a middle way of the road, the advantage is to stabilize the people's will and law and order, and the disadvantage is that it may reduce the increase in population and tax revenue in the future, for the time being, the increase in the population of a country will increase in about a quarter, and the number is roughly a proportion of the total population, which is not much.
At present, the population of the new country is actually small, and in many cases, the increase in population still depends on the displaced people.
It's really hard to choose.
Ren Tian sat on the dragon chair and groaned, every choice has pros and cons, the key is to see how the player chooses himself, there is no completely good choice, make a choice, you have to bear the corresponding consequences.
After a long time, Ren Tian said: "These thousand homeless people, although they are outsiders, but now in the new country, they are the people of the new country, and I have just ascended the throne, so I should practice benevolent government and choose assimilation." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Situ Zhang Guangzhi retreated, and a virtual holy decree appeared in front of Ren Tian's eyes, Ren Tian directly pressed to confirm, this holy decree was also issued, in addition to the energy value deducted, Ren Tian even saw his attribute panel, Nanxian County and Heping County in the territory, which was originally only a few more than 50 points, fell to more than 40 points in an instant.
it!
The corners of Ren Tian's mouth twitched, why did he lose so much?
The security of the city is very important, if there are endless robberies and murders, their own residents will run out, and the population will definitely continue to lose.
Ren Tian frowned: "Guo Bai! ”
Sima Guobai immediately stepped out, clasped his fists and bowed, and said, "The minister is here." ”
This is a military general, the position of Sima, in the Spring and Autumn Period, was in charge of military and political affairs, and the policies on military and political affairs had to be implemented by Guo Bai.
"Carry out soldier signs, replenish the source of the Praetorian Guard, at least increase the number of soldiers of the Praetorian Legion to 3,000, in addition, the number of patrols in Nanxian Pingxian County will be doubled, and the number of patrols will be increased by three times."
"Yes!"
A holy decree appeared in front of Ren Tian's eyes, and this holy decree was drafted by Ren Tian on his own initiative, so the energy value deducted was more, but Ren Tian didn't care about this anymore, and the top priority was to raise the security of the two county towns first.
After issuing the holy decree, Ren Tian breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time, Si Kou Quman stood up: "Your Majesty, the ministers have a performance." ”
"Quasi-play."
"Your Majesty's new accession to the throne, will you grant amnesty to the world in order to raise the hearts of the people?"
Ren Tian took a look at his people's hearts, and it was currently 51.
"No forgiveness."
Ren Tian directly refused, what kind of joke, and amnesty to the world, the previous choice made the security of his two counties drop to more than 40 points, which is already very dangerous, if this is another amnesty to the world, the county security is a little lower, it is estimated that the thugs in the city will directly rebel.
"Your Majesty, in addition, the new national code has many backward places, the two counties of Nanxian and Pingxian have encountered a lot of difficult cases, according to the law, most of the judgments made are unjust, false and wrongly decided, may I ask Your Majesty whether the code has been corrected and revised?"
Si Kou is equivalent to the current supreme magistrate, that is, he is responsible for the formulation of some laws and regulations.
And this is equivalent to the basic task, just like the previous reclamation of farmland and road repair, it is a task that must be done, and Ren Tian naturally chose to agree.
Suddenly, a holy decree appeared in front of him.
"Fengtian carried the emperor's edict and said:
The laws of the past can be wrong today; The laws and regulations of a country must conform to reality and adapt to the feelings of the people. Today, it is specially approved to rewrite the legal code of the new country, so that the new country can have a law to follow. ”
The decree automatically generated by the system is half-written and half-written, but in any case, this decree is drawn up again, and it takes six months, about ten officials, and ten gold dollars.
And Ren Tian checked his energy value, and he was basically about to bottom out.
