Chapter 785: Returning to the Imperial Court
Shen Qinghong lived in the palace, Mu Ling arranged a palace for him to live in first, Le'er had a good relationship with him, and the stickiness all day long made Mu Ling save trouble for a while.
Qian'er had to go to Taixue during the day, and Mu Ling had nothing to do.
On this day, he was dozing off, and Feng Shou hurriedly came over: "The queen mother, alas, wake up quickly, the emperor called you to the imperial study!" ”
"Huh? But what is the matter? Mu Ling slept a little dazed.
Cuiyan and Shiqin fetched water to wash her face and sober her, while the other chose clothes to help her make up.
After some tossing, she finally woke up, packed up and went to the imperial study.
went to the imperial study, only to find that it was not only Liang Chu alone, but even the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry were still there, Mu Ling couldn't help but be surprised.
"Come here." Liang Chu beckoned to her and handed her the fold in his other hand.
Mu Ling took it in his hand and looked at it, and couldn't help but be more and more surprised.
The excerpt was submitted by the Ministry of Works, writing the planning of the sugar shop and the workmanship of various objects, etc., and it was roughly according to her idea to make an outline, but the specific needs to be carefully discussed.
After reading one, I handed another one.
This is the bank two expenses drawn up by the household department, cost conversion, etc.
I have to say that the efficiency of the country's highest organs and departments is good! It was only a few days before I was able to make the outline of the shop, which was really impressive.
Seeing the joy on her face, Liang Chu knew that she was in a good mood, and then said: "The shop has selected a place for you, and you have to go and see it yourself." Just remember to take the tiger guard with you when you go out and come back on time. ”
"Well, that's not in a hurry." Mu Ling smiled and nodded, her heart full of emotion.
Putting down the fold, I saw another stack piled up on the side, and I couldn't help but look at it curiously.
Liang Chu looked at her, and simply picked up a copy and handed it to her: "It's about the land of the vassal king, after the vassal king is revoked, all the fields will be returned to the imperial court." However, the imperial court could not have so many people to cultivate the land, so it would be a lot of waste, and the vassal kings could not be overthrown. ”
"No, it won't."
Mu Ling took the interface for granted, and put down the excerpt after looking at it.
Liang Chu's heart tightened, and he hurriedly looked at her: "Do you have a good idea?" ”
Even the head of the Tobe Shangshu who was standing next stared closely, for fear of missing something.
Mu Ling blinked, staring a little nervously: "Isn't it very simple?" The vassal king owns the land, but for whom did the land be planted? ”
"Naturally, it was leased to the people, and the people planted grain and handed it over to the vassal king, who handed it over to the court according to the taxes." Tobe Shangshu knows best.
Mu Ling nodded: "The taxes paid by the vassal kings to the people in various places are different, and Rao is that the imperial court has a clear tax index for various places. But if the vassal king wants to be rich, he can only squeeze it from the people, and they only need to ensure that they can hand over the indicators given by the court, and as for how much more they will have after handing over, it has nothing to do with the court. ”
Everyone nodded, it was natural.
"But if there is no vassal king, yamen will be set up in various places**. The yamen is directly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and the imperial court appoints officials to eat the imperial court's money. Later, in addition to avenging the grievances of the people and handling cases, the government also did things for the court and took care of the people. The imperial court directly whitened the fields to the common people, and directly issued tax targets to the people according to the harvest of each year, and there was no link between the vassal kings, so that the people could live a better life, and the imperial court could collect more grain. ”
In this way, there will be nothing to do with the vassal king, and the part that was left by the vassal king in the past can be divided between the people and the court, a win-win situation.
"Yes! The mother is absolutely right! ”
Tobe Shangshu clapped his palms and suddenly realized.
It is the imperial court that takes back the land of the vassal king, no matter how the vassal king makes trouble, isn't there still the imperial court to hold it back?
For the household department, it is just a quiet collection of taxes and a little bit of money from the treasury, and what are the other departments doing?
And how much can this method make the treasury harvest more, and the household department is only happier, and naturally there is no reason to be sad.
The two groaned, and after thinking about it carefully, they also understood the benefits, and couldn't help but smile and nod and said: "This is a good idea, this matter is handled by the household department, and the taxes and fields in each place are listed as a clear project." ”
"Yes, I obey!" Tobe Shangshu is very happy to receive the order.
Mu Ling said: "Actually, I really haven't noticed it before, the climate and soil conditions in each place are different, and the crops that can survive are also different. This matter must be carefully adjusted to find out the crops suitable for planting in each place, so as to ensure a good harvest in each place. ”
"Niangniang is right, but if you run to every place, it will inevitably be a little troublesome, and it is not something that can be completed in a while." Tobe was in a dilemma.
Mu Ling nodded: "I know that this matter still depends on the accumulation of time, and the household department and the agriculture department must pay more attention." ”
In previous years, the amount of taxes paid by various localities and the degree of difficulty in collecting them can all be factors in judging these things, and it is natural that these two departments should pay more attention.
She just made a rough suggestion, and then listened to Liang Chu discuss the details with the Ministry of Household Industry.
Simply idle and bored, Mu Ling took a pen and paper and drew the crystal crown that he had been thinking about for a long time on the side. The big crown can be given to herself, and the small one can be given to Le'er, which just happens to be appropriate.
"What are you drawing?"
"Ahh
The sudden sound startled her.
Liang Chu took the person in his arms, took the thing she had just painted, couldn't help but light up, kissed her and said: "This spar is almost found, and it will be polished by the Internal Affairs Office in a few days, do you like this style?" ”
"Beautiful."
"Well, it's good."
He turned to look at her, meaningful.
Mu Ling was stared at by her and his face was hot for a while, so he simply pushed his face away: "I just found out how much work it takes to open a shop, but this sugar, salt, iron ore and other things should also be collected by the imperial court and controlled by the imperial court." Especially things like nitric acid, sulfur, fireworks, etc., it is safer for the imperial court to control. ”
"Fireworks?"
"Have you forgotten the a**s you used to blow up Ruma at the border?"
"I don't have it, but if something so powerful is really used on the battlefield on a large scale, it will be a real disaster." Liang Chu's eyes were full of seriousness.
Mu Ling couldn't help but sigh, didn't he? During that period of war with these things, the land she loved was ravaged like that.
With those things, Mu Ling didn't want to let it spread anymore.
