Early the next morning, Chen Mu went out of the palace to meet the bigwigs of the military department and the official department.

The Ministry of War naturally wanted to build a subordinate military school, and when he heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wanted to support the construction of a military school, his eyes were blurred with tears.

While crying, he said, only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is sympathetic to the soldiers!

The Ministry of Rites is naturally easy to say, but the Academy of Rites is a bit special, not only to learn etiquette, but also to learn various arts and musical instruments.

The Ministry of Rites also quickly resolved.

In the afternoon, Chen Mu asked people to tell his father in the palace the news of leaving the capital, and then took more than ten people all the way to the north.

The first place I came to, I did Anbei County early.

Chen Mu first found an inn to live in, and then asked people to go out to find out what are the social contradictions in Anbei County? What problems do the people want to solve?

Soon I learned that the people of Anbei County were very dissatisfied with the current tax of the imperial court, and the main contradiction was taxation.

"Taxes? Isn't the twelve taxes that Great Xia has always enforced? Chen Mu found the county order of Anbei County and asked directly.

The Anbei County Commander hurriedly knelt down and said with a wry smile: "Your Highness, you don't know, before the war, it was indeed twelve taxes and one, but after the war began, the tax revenue increased every year. ”

"The imperial court's projects are constantly being built, and the expansion to the outside world has never stopped, but where does the money come from? They were all taken from the mouths of the people! ”

"How much are taxes now?" Chen Mu was silent for a while, and then said.

Anbei County ordered: "Your Highness, I don't know about other places now, only Annan County, now the agricultural tax is already fifteen taxes." Many people can't hold on anymore. ”

For every ten catties of grain harvested, five catties of taxes must be paid......

It's already a cool tax!

The words of the Anbei County Order shocked Chen Mu's heart.

Chen Mu remembered some things in his previous life.

Some countries are just collecting taxes, and they collect a lot of taxes. For example, in the previous life, the beautiful country divided the population of the whole country into four parts, and distributed the resources of the whole world to each citizen, and these allocated resources were distributed according to the labor force of the people, not including property.

And the beautiful country is still collecting taxes at the same time, but also collecting taxes from other countries. For example, the colonies of beautiful countries in Europe, the colonies in the English Channel, such as the colonies of beautiful countries in South America and Asia. They all pay taxes to the local people, and the local people are also responsible for the taxes in these places.

If a country's taxes are not borne by domestic taxes, but by these people. Then the national strength of this country will definitely be weakened, the domestic tax will be reduced, and the people of these countries will naturally go hungry.

The tax in Great Xia is too high!

"I see, but why did I go into the city and see the people in all their glory and joy? If it was in the previous dynasty, the ten taxes and five would have caused the people to revolt. Chen Mu continued to question the Anbei County Order.

The Anbei County Commander looked like he had been wronged, and explained: "Your Highness, this is because the people know that the country's major projects are for their good, and you are pioneering everywhere for the sake of future generations, plus the seeds you brought back from the outside a few years ago, although the people are ten taxes and five, they can finally live and see hope." ”

After the Anbei County Order was finished, Chen Mu was instantly a little moved.

His subordinates couldn't even understand why they were expanding around, but a common man who didn't know these big characters could understand him.

Support yourself.

The people of Daxia are really the most industrious people in the world and the most reasonable people.

Chen Mu swore that he would never fail these people in this life!

Chen Mu asked people to go out of the city to inquire about the social contradictions in Anbei County, and then asked this person to come back quickly and tell himself.

By evening, the man had returned.

After coming back, Chen Mu wrote all these things in his small notebook, and waited until he returned to the capital to make other plans.

Early the next morning, when Chen Mu was about to leave the city, he heard a woman shouting in front of the county yamen.

"What's wrong with me being a woman? I also read, I am also literate, why can't I be a clerk, the law of Daxia has never written a county government document, only a man can be a clerk, right? ”

Ouch my mother, don't make trouble, you are disturbing the court, hurry up and leave...... A group of county officials all dissuaded him.

These women did not listen to the dissuasion at all, and shouted there, and said that the county government favored men, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that they would be meritocracy.

"His Royal Highness the Prince? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in the capital! If you want to find an official, go to the capital to find His Royal Highness the Prince! The official said angrily.

The woman sneered: "You wait for me, I will go to the capital, find His Royal Highness the Prince, and see what you say when the time comes!" ”

So she turned and left.

It's inexplicable! The officials shook their heads.

After Chen Mu, who was not far away, saw it, he immediately frowned.

Take out your little notebook and write at the bottom: Equality between men and women......

Then write a note: In primitive times, the level of productivity determined the superiority of gender.

After finishing writing, Chen Mu set up a fast horse and went back to the capital.

Anbei County can get little information, but Chen Mu is not alone, when he left the capital, he asked people to go to all parts of the country to collect local people's feelings and contradictions, and then feedback to the capital.

galloped all the way, and in the early morning of the third day, I finally arrived in the capital.

After Chen Mu rode to the capital, he went straight to the prince's mansion.

By noon, all the phone calls from all over the country had been made, and the contradictions and conflicts in each region were introduced.

Chen Mu asked someone to record them one by one to ensure that nothing went wrong.

In the evening, a cart full of folds was transported to the palace, and Chen Mu also entered the palace.

"Mu'er, these are the problems that all regions face?" Rao is Chen Xingtian was also shocked when he saw so many twists and turns.

Chen Mu nodded and said, "Yes, Father, I plan to hold a court meeting tomorrow to discuss this matter!"

No, this matter must not be taken lightly, if it triggers a contradiction between the DPRK and China, it will be troublesome. Chen Xingtian immediately vetoed Chen Mu's proposal.

Now that the war is over, the most important thing in Great Xia is stability, and stability comes first!

"Father, if there is a conflict between the court, I will record it and solve it one by one." Chen Mu's eyes looked directly at Chen Xingtian.

continued: "Father, you are old! ”

Chen Xingtian suddenly sat on the dragon chair weakly, touched his pale sideburns, and said helplessly: "Yes, I am old, and I don't have the courage to make bold moves back then." ”

Then Chen Xingtian waved his hand to Chen Mu and said, "You go and do what you want...... All! ”
