"Right Minister, do you have any ideas?" Mu Jingyi looked at Wang Huaxin.

"Lord Qiqi, the lower officials feel that they should be severely punished for corrupt officials and corrupt officials!"

"And then? What is the use of the government? There is no use, can you guarantee that the newly appointed officials will be able to breeze on their sleeves? Mu Jingyi asked.

Wang Huaxin wiped his forehead, and a cold sweat broke out on his back, "The lower official is blunt, and I ask the prince to punish him." ”

"Master Fu, what do you mean?" Mu Jingyi looked at Fu Yi again.

Fu Jian took a step forward, "Lord Wang, although there is no way for the lower officials to solve the root cause of the problem, but the current problem comes from the officialdom, and the lower officials believe that the symptoms can be treated using the "test method"

"What is the test method?"

"At present, the government treasury is empty, but the officials are redundant, and there are many empty salaries, which makes the exploitation of the common people more and more serious. The lower officials suggested that redundant officials and redundant personnel in government agencies should be eliminated and the postal service should be reorganized. Fu said.

His words were echoed by Huang Yuzhang and others.

"So what do you think about the current situation of displacement?" Mu Jingyi looked around.

Wen Gangsheng, who fell on the tail of the crowd, was a little speechless and stopped, Luo Xiaoqiao forcibly requisitioned him from the railway, and he was not very familiar with his position.

"Master Wen, you say!" Mu Jingyi nodded at him and asked.

Wen Gangsheng looked up in astonishment, and the hundred officials also looked at him in surprise, as if they couldn't imagine why King Jing would value such a person with no reputation.

"Say it", Mu Jingyi nodded at him, "With so many adults here, there must be different ideas, it doesn't matter, they all have a chance." ”

"Lord Wang, since the founding of the country, Da Chu has always implemented the Juntian system." Wen Gangsheng thought for a while and said slowly: "Originally, it was to encourage farming, and the idea was good, to distribute the ownerless land to small farmers according to the number of people, and after a certain number of years of cultivation, it would be owned by them. ”

"Yes, what Master Wen said is exactly the situation of my Great Chu," added the right minister, "At the beginning of the founding of my Great Chu, the people had just finished the war, were displaced, and a large number of fields were barren, so the land was distributed to peasant households, and the peasant households bore the burden of taxation and conscription and military service. ”

"But now, the Juntian system doesn't work," Mr. Wen said.

"What do you mean?" Several Kyoto officials don't quite agree, where can the rules set by the ancestors be arbitrarily placed?

"The adults must have discovered that now the land annexation is so serious, a large amount of land is in the hands of the family, and the land in the hands of the treasury is getting less and less, even if you want to divide the land, there is not much land to divide!" Wen Gangsheng said.

"Moreover, people are burdened with too many taxes and their lives are becoming more and more difficult, which is not good for the stability of the situation. Isn't this already confirmed by the current situation of uprisings everywhere? ”

"What is Master Wen's plan?" Huang Yuzhang asked.

Now that the government is short of taxes and silver, and the people are short of grain and grass, it shows that the previous "rent adjustment law" is time to change it. Wen Gangsheng said.

"What is the two tax laws?" Even Hua Lang looked at this seemingly inconspicuous person a little.

Is the official selected by the Northland really so set?

"The so-called two-tax law is to change the rent-based method of collecting grain, cloth and other physical goods to collecting money, which is taxed twice a year." There is no owner or guest in the household, and the residence is the book; There is no one among them, and the rich and the poor are the poor." As long as there are assets and land, they must be taxed. ”

Wen Gangsheng's words aroused everyone's contemplation.

He does have a point, but an increase in taxes on large landowners will inevitably lead to a backlash.

There was a lot of discussion for a while, but there was no conclusion, but no one dared to refute him rashly, after all, they themselves could not come up with a better solution.

Seeing that it was getting dark again, the discussion on this matter was not over.

Cai Wenhan cleared his throat, attracting everyone's side glances, "Lord Cai, what do you think?" ”

"Lord, why don't you ask the princess what she thinks?"

The officials really didn't expect that they would hear such a sentence?

What do you mean?

They can't solve a major national event that a group of men can't solve, and they want a woman's family to come out?

Listen to this, or do you want to ask for advice?

"Lord Cai, this is not necessary. Although the princess has planting experience, after all, she is young and still a woman......" Huang Zhendong, an official of the Ministry of Rites, took the lead in standing up and said.

"No, no, Lord Huang, maybe the princess's opinion is far better than that of men like us", Cai Wenhan replied by touching his beard.

Hundreds of officials in Kyoto were full of forbearant anger on their faces, and this person from the north, even if he wanted to build momentum for that woman, it was too much.

Family and country affairs, how can it be child's play!

Su Kongqing looked at their expressions and smiled coldly, "Later, when you regret it." ”

"Go and ask the princess!"

Mu Jingyi pinched his brows, he didn't expect Luo Xiaoqiao to do anything, but after all, it was a good opportunity to establish his prestige, so let her see.

Even if she really can't help it, he can make her get out of the way.

"Lord, this ......" Several petty officials wanted to speak and stopped, but after seeing the left and right ministers shaking their heads faintly, they all retreated and stopped talking.

There was a brief silence in the main hall.

Luo Xiaoqiao was preparing a meal in the backyard, and after hearing the message, he simply cleaned up and followed Mingyi.

"Sit down for the princess!"

"Princess, sit down!" Immediately, someone placed the seat next to Mu Jingyi.

Luo Xiaoqiao waited quietly, and after a while, Wen Gangsheng bowed down and handed over a document and came up: "Princess, please see!" This is a bill that the lower officials have just sorted out, and I ask the princess to decide. ”

Luo Xiaoqiao took it casually, glanced at it twice, and put it aside.

Wen Gangsheng's eyes kept staring at her, and when he saw this, his eyes drooped little by little.

She shouldn't have looked at this expression at all, right? Sure enough, there shouldn't be any hope for this woman.

Just when Wen Gangsheng was a little disheartened, Luo Xiaoqiao's clear voice sounded: "Master Wen, I don't understand, you can tell me directly in the vernacular." ”

When several officials from Kyoto heard this, they almost didn't hide their disdain on their faces, didn't this princess even know how to hide her clumsy scheming? Does she really take on the role of the mother of a country?

Wen Gangsheng didn't care about this, he told his reasons and thoughts again.

Luo Xiaoqiao nodded again and again when he heard this, "Lord Wen's idea is mainly to improve the tax system, but it has not changed the principle of private ownership of land, right?" ”

"Yes!"

Luo Xiaoqiao blinked, "Then have you ever thought about it, now that after the war, there are some borderless lands, and you can continue to use the equalization system to divide them, but when the land controlled by the state becomes less and less, and the land annexation continues to expand, what should you do when there is no land to divide?" ”

"What does the princess mean?" Wen Gangsheng raised his head, his eyes blazing.

"I don't deny that your solution is a good one, but I have a specific idea here, and I want to hear your opinions."

"Please!" Wen Gangsheng didn't care about humility at all, he wanted to know what else was better than the method he had meditated on and studied for three days.

"My method, the name is very vulgar, it is to "household production contract responsibility system"! Luo Xiaoqiao smiled and said without pressure.

"The land will always belong to the state, the family only has the right to use it, the land is leased to the family, and the peasant household belongs to himself except for a small part of the grain and taxes. As for the landlord's land, the same method of expropriation! ”

"Hiss......" This is really unheard of.

"I don't know if the princess may explain it in detail, what does this mean?" Cai Wenhan asked.

"First of all, it can solve the dilemma of one day, there is no land to divide. Second, it can solve the problem of farmers' autonomy and enthusiasm in work. Again, it is possible to increase our tax revenues. Finally, if there is no harvest for the time being, can't I get grain on credit in the northland? It can be continued to be promoted. ”

The crows are silent, they are really the crows are silent.
