The first edition of the first issue of the Guanzhong Weekly will tell in detail about the rebellion of the Chen family in Yanxian County due to tax resistance, which made the whole Guanzhong sensational, and more importantly, shocked many Guanzhong noble families who have big businesses and are very disgusted with paying taxes with ordinary people.

Thinking of a rebellion that took place more than 200 miles away from Chang'an, it was suppressed by more than 10,000 iron horsemen in less than 12 hours, such a quick reaction speed, and the hundreds of human heads hanging outside the Suzaku Gate, reminded them of how bloody their son's methods of dealing with violent tax resisters were.

This rebellion was not widespread, but its impact was unprecedented, or the bloody methods of this son's ruthless hands made those noble families frightened, although they still complained in their hearts, but they did not dare to pay according to the rules.

It is important to know that nearly three-fifths of the land in Guanzhong was given to his subordinates and princes and nobles by the emperors of the previous dynasties who built the capital in Guanzhong. And this son did this, so that the tax in Guanzhong can at least double more, and in addition to the field tax, the commercial tax has also made clear provisions, if you want to evade taxes, well, the fine will be waiting for you at that time.

If you have the ability, you will raise an army to resist, and my son will just give you the family to exterminate the family, and fill the treasury with your land and family wealth. The common people praised each other, or rather, their hearts were much more balanced, and the officials and gentry paid for food in one piece, which was carried out more than a thousand years ahead of this son.

On the first day, 50,000 weekly newspapers in Guanzhong were swept away, in addition to the current affairs in Guanzhong and the surrounding areas, there were also serialized novels, and there were all kinds of advertisements, and the emergence of newspapers gave birth to a new profession: newspaper readers.

In addition, in addition to the newspaper readers who are not related to the party, the county of Guanzhong Yiying must also publicize various policies and current affairs to the people of the county, and each county has five preacherents, whose daily task is to walk around the villages of each county and preach new policies and new tax methods.

This alone will capture the hearts of millions of ordinary people in Guanzhong. In the past, the pain of conscription was imminent, when Yang Guang conquered Goguryeo, he conscripted a lot of people to serve and transported grain for hundreds of thousands of troops, in addition, many officials also regarded these serving people as slaves and servants, and wantonly beat and scolded.

Nowadays, all government workers are called civil servants, paid monthly, and can retire after 60 years old, and can also have a retirement salary, which has also attracted a lot of attention.

Every new policy will be published in the newspapers, and those preachers will make the vast majority of the people in every county understand the benefits of these new policies, and no longer engage in any foolish policies like in the past, so that the people themselves are oppressed by the officials, but they don't know whether the court really allows these officials to do this.

Immediately afterwards, a special issue of "Guanzhong Weekly" was issued, which also published the news that Li Liang, the king of Hexi, was cleaned up by the army of this son, and that the land of Hexi was all in my hands, which made the people in Guanzhong see the combat effectiveness of the Chinese Revival Army under the hands of this son. At the same time, it also made those guys understand that regardless of whether it is external pressure or internal pressure, in the face of the absolute strength in the hands of this son, everything is a floating cloud.

The autumn harvest is finally coming, and the results of the successive reports make this son very happy, and the previous prediction, there is really not much difference, of course, there are still certain differences, such as the harvest of the Chen family's field in Yan County, which is state-owned at the moment, and after re-verification, the actual land owned by the family is not more than 3,070 hectares, but a full 5,000 and 21 hectares, except for more than 2,700 hectares in Yan County, the others are all distributed in the surrounding counties.

In addition, the fields of the gentry in Yan County were also investigated, and nearly 500 hectares of land were added, which shows that the number of hidden fields in this era is really huge.

"I can't imagine that from the beginning of the emperor to the present, just the son, should we investigate the fields of the entire land under our rule in detail and clarify the number of fields." Du Ruhui frowned, stared at the paper full of data in front of Ben Gongzi and said. "The entire Guanzhong, plus Hexi, and the northern part of Guanzhong, I am afraid that our taxes can increase a lot ......"

Fang Xuanling stroked his long beard and shook his head and said, "If you check it now, it's not time, at least during the autumn harvest, it's too late to make adjustments." What's more, on the occasion of the autumn harvest, the emphasis is on stability, and in the opinion of the ministers, it is better to wait for a detailed investigation after the autumn harvest. ”

"The Ministry of Housing is reasonable, now that the autumn harvest has begun, all households, the taxes paid have been determined, if it is checked and corrected at this time, it is not good for the people, and it is not good for the court, I hope the Lord will be cautious." Pan Wen, the young official, jumped out and spoke.

Pan Wenwen is a person from Xingyang Zhongmu, originally a scholar, but later was guarded by Xingyang Tongshou Zhang Xutuo, served in his account, and then, with Pei Renji to do things, and Pei Renji and his group fled, this guy also ran away, speaking of which, this guy is a rare talent, and now he is the right-hand man of the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Taxation.

This guy is tired like a dog, but this son is definitely not a stingy person, he gets a double salary for a double position, and a third salary for a third position, for example, Fang Xuanling has four positions, but he gets four salaries for the post.

Pan Wen is said to be the queen of Pan Yue, a writer and famous minister of the Western Jin Dynasty, that is, after Pan An, a peerless beautiful man touted by later generations. But I really can't see how the ancestor of this thick-eyed buddy is a beautiful man who will go down in history? Maybe it's a genetic mutation.

Khan, I digress again, although many of the capable people are wearing many hats, but fortunately, they are all brave people, so they have not delayed any political affairs.

At this time, more than a dozen ministers who came in to discuss the matter all set their eyes on me, which means that we have given all our opinions and asked the Lord to decide.

I touched my chin and said, "According to Fang Shangshu's words, after the autumn harvest, we will begin to clarify all the fields under the jurisdiction of the Huaxia Revival Army, and in addition, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Industry and other relevant departments will jointly carry out the clarification and strive to complete the clarification in the spring ploughing period next year." ”

"No," all the ministers stood up in unison and promised. The others were almost gone, but Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui stayed.

"Why, there's nothing I need to deal with, right?" I said with a big yawn. After returning from Yanxian five days ago, he had to continue to deal with the follow-up affairs about the rebellion in Yanxian, and he also had to pay attention to the impact of the "Guanzhong Weekly", which caused Lao Tzu to be more tired than a cow and sleep less than a cat in the past few days

"Childe, during this time, we have been in Guanzhong, but there have been a lot of grain merchants." Fang Xuanling's words made my son's heart skip a beat, sat up straight, and motioned for Fang Xuanling to continue.

All the grain merchants who came from outside Guanzhong were very clear, that is, they wanted to come to Guanzhong to collect grain, and most of them came from all over the country, especially the war-torn Central Plains.

And many of the grain merchants' entourage are not good, according to the intelligence bureau personnel, most of them should be soldiers. The background of these grain merchants is not simple.

As the person in charge of the Intelligence Bureau, Du Ruhui looked worried about the country and the people. “…… The Central Plains is in turmoil, the people are not able to make a living, many people are displaced, uprooted from their hometowns, making the land in the Central Plains barren, and because of the frequent wars, the harvest of the people is also difficult to guarantee, I am afraid that the Central Plains are more or less powerful, are short of food. ”

"And we are peaceful in Guanzhong, the people live and work in peace, God bless the land of Guanzhong this year, the wind and rain are smooth, according to the current situation, there must be a lot of food obtained......" Fang Xuanling's expression was both happy and worried, happy Naturally, Guanzhong had a bumper harvest, and it would definitely be able to meet the demand of the entire Guanzhong. The worry is that the warlords in the Central Plains are like a swarm of blood-sucking mosquitoes smelling the sweet smell of blood, and they sent these grain merchants to Guanzhong, presumably to buy grain in large quantities.

"By the way, what is the price of food in the lands?" Ben Gongzi narrowed his eyes and pondered for a long time, and then asked Fang Xuanling.

"There are many places in Hebei and the south of the Yangtze River, which are about two runs through one stone, and the rest of the places, such as the land of Henan and Shandong, can be as expensive as five stones, and it will not be less than four runs and one stone...... And most of them have no food, and even in some places, I am afraid that they are about to reach the point of eating for their children. ”

Hearing Fang Xuanling's explanation, Ben Gongzi couldn't help but be taken aback, obediently, it is really expensive enough, and the grain in Guanzhong is not expensive, or Guanzhong, which has always been peaceful, has been very strict in maintaining prices after being mastered by Ben Gongzi, plus this Gongzi was originally the largest grain merchant in Guanzhong, and all the counties and counties in Guanzhong have semicolons, so the grain price in Guanzhong has been very stable from last year to this year, maintaining between 450 yuan and 500 yuan, compared to other places, it is definitely more suitable to covet.

More importantly, although the price of grain in Jiangnan and Hebei is already appropriate, the problem is that most of them have no grain at a price, and it would be good to be able to feed the people under their rule, so how can there be surplus grain to sell.

Moreover, according to the news obtained by Du Ruhui, with the growth of power and territory, some scholars began to take refuge in Du Fuwei, relying on these scholars, Du gave up his previous rogue tactics and began to work hard to build his own territory. At the same time, probably out of the innate hatred of the poor peasants for corrupt officials, Du Fuwei ordered all officials and corrupt officials to be executed, regardless of their severity, which was of course unreasonable, but it made Du gain the support of the people.

However, it is not so good to collect Yumin, if there is a shortage of food, let alone Yumin, even the army will disperse, so Du Fuwei in the last month, had the intention of buying millions of grains from Xiao Mill, who was running in the south of the Yangtze River, but Xiao Milling with a high price of three runs and one stone, which made Du Fuwei mad, but he was helpless.

Hearing this, my son's business mind began to think rapidly again, and Du Fang and the others watched me quietly.
