Chapter 1154: The Joy of the New Year

"No, Daddy! Be...... It's an agricultural tax! ”

The young man was so surprised that he stammered.

"Agricultural tax? How? Agricultural taxes have been lowered again? ”

The couple's eyes lit up.

The last time the tax was cut, they were the common people living much better than before, and they all had more money.

If it is lightened a little, the conditions at home can be more relaxed!

"No! No......! ”

The young man waved his hand again and again, and his face was full of joy.

"Isn't it a reduction in agricultural taxes? Then why are you so happy? ”

The couple was somewhat disappointed.

"It's really not a reduction in agricultural taxes, but a direct reduction! In the future, no matter how much land our family plants, we don't need to pay taxes anymore! ”

The young man took a few deep breaths and finally got the point out of the newspaper.

The couple were stunned for a moment, then looked at each other, obviously unconvinced, "Pull it down, how is this possible?" ”

"That's it! Since ancient times, I have never heard of a non-agricultural tax! Could it be that the land of the country is given to us for nothing? ”

"Daddy! It's true! ”

The young man said firmly.

"Pull it down, you kid is bullying us for not being literate!"

The man, thinking that his son was looking for him to be happy, slapped him on the back of the head, turned around and was about to enter the back room.

"Dick...... Come, look at the contents of the newspaper! ”

In order to prove that he was not lying, the young man hurriedly called his younger brother who was playing in the house.

With the popularization of compulsory education, the younger brother also began to read and write.

Although I don't recognize much now, it's enough to look at the title!

"It's here, brother......!"

The younger brother didn't say a word, but ran over and read according to the title pointed out by the elder brother, "Exempt from agriculture!" ”

"What's right or wrong? That word reads tax! ”

The young man frowned in emphasis.

"Oh! Oh! Ha ha......! ”

The younger brother scratched his head in embarrassment, and read it again, word by word, "Exemption from agricultural tax!" Exemption from agricultural taxes? Does it mean that you don't have to pay taxes on farming in the future? ”

After reacting, he quickly snatched the newspaper and picked out the words he knew and read them.

"Dad, Mom, do you hear it? I didn't lie to you, it was a decision just made by the imperial court, and now this matter is being discussed outside, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the government should notify you! In the future, we won't need to pay taxes for farming! ”

There was a younger brother who proved that he was not lying, and the young man had a straight waist.

"Is it true that you don't have to pay taxes? We're not dreaming, are we? ”

However, the couple still couldn't believe it, and their faces were full of surprise.

"It's true, it's been published in the newspaper, and the entire people of Daqin can see it, can this be fake?"

The young man smiled firmly.

"My God, I really didn't expect that I, Zhang Laosan, would be able to catch up with such a good thing!"

"Who's to say it isn't! I was glad that we met Mingjun and reduced taxes for us, but I didn't expect that now we are directly exempted from taxes! If this had been put in the past, it would have been unimaginable! ”

After confirming that this was true, the couple's excited tears flowed out, and they almost hugged their heads and cried.

This is something that has never happened in Great Qin for thousands of years!

"All thanks to Your Majesty!"

"Yes, yes, it is His Majesty who has led us to this day and made our lives better and better!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty......!"

The family went out of the room, knelt directly in the snow outside the door, and kowtowed in the direction of the palace.

Even if their foreheads are covered with snow, their hearts are as warm as a furnace!

Except for them, almost the entire people of Great Qin were talking about this matter.

"Is it true that you don't have to pay taxes for farming in the future?"

"You don't even have to pay for food? Don't use a single pill? ”

"Is the land really giving us white seeds?"

"Your Majesty Shengming......!"

The news spread, and the people were grateful to the court and Ying Feiyu.

Especially those alien races, they can't wait for Great Qin to invade a few decades earlier, so that they can catch up with the good time when they don't have to pay taxes for farming as soon as they are born.

In the future, no matter how much grain you grow at home, it will be your own, and you don't need to hand over a grain to the state treasury.

At the same time, some people also questioned, "If everyone doesn't pay food, what can we do if there is a disaster and there is no harvest?" ”

"Put your heart in your belly! We just don't pay the food, we don't destroy all the food! The annual grain production has not changed! If the imperial court needs to store food, it can buy it from us for money! ”

"Buy? In other words, not only do we not have to hand over grain, but the court also spends money to buy grain from us? ”

The puzzled people looked incredulous.

"That's understandable!"

The people who explained it nodded firmly.

"Good fellows! Times have really changed! ”

The people were excited.

For a time, the exemption from agricultural tax became the hottest topic in Daqin.

Everywhere you go, you can hear the voices associated with it!

Even the shopkeepers who did business were discussing with each other, "On the first day of the new year, the imperial court exempted the agricultural tax!" ”

"Yes! I guessed that His Majesty would make a big move after he ascended the throne, but I didn't expect it to be such a great thing! ”

"The exemption from agricultural taxes is a good thing for those farmers, but for us and other businessmen, it doesn't matter much at all!"

"You couldn't be more wrong! The exemption from agricultural tax is inextricably linked to us! ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"You think! We open our doors to do business, and the customers we face are ordinary people, right? When they have a comfortable life, we can come like a guest! If they are poor and white, how can they come out and spend money? Whose money are we going to make? ”

"Huh? You really think so! Only when the people are rich, can we be rich! ”

"It seems that this exemption from agricultural taxes has a significant impact on all walks of life!"

"Of course......!"

Some businessmen thought it had nothing to do with them at first.

But after the analysis of others, this matter is not only related to them, but also inseparable.

This time, the joyful atmosphere was pushed to a climax again!

When the guards of the Black Ice Platform reported the news to Ying Zheng, he who was warming up by the stove laughed directly, "This kid really dares to think and do!" ”

"Brother Zheng is not afraid that it will be difficult to collect the agricultural tax after it is abolished?"

Lian'er was surprised.

No matter what his son did before, Brother Zheng would find fault.

And this time, making such a big move and directly exempting the agricultural tax, Brother Zheng not only did not get angry, but laughed out loud!

"Now most of the taxes of the imperial court come from the customs, industry and commerce, and there are few agricultural taxes, so it doesn't matter whether they are collected or not!"

Ying Zheng rubbed his hands and said with a smile.

"In that case, why didn't Brother Zheng cancel it when he was in power?"

Lian'er was puzzled.

"That's why I said that this kid dares to think and dare to do it......!"

Ying Zheng said with a smile: "I did think about it at the beginning, but I looked forward and backward, I was afraid that something would happen in the future, and I would need to rely on agricultural taxes, and the people would have opinions when the time came!" And those old ministers in the DPRK and China are stubborn, and they will definitely not agree to it, so they didn't put it forward! ”

Unexpectedly, after his son ascended the throne, he directly took a drastic approach to this matter.

"Presumably this matter has also been carefully thought out by Fei Yu!"

Lian'er must have believed in her son.

"Hmmm! On the first day, the court was able to let the ministers pass this decision, and this kid really has two brushes! ”

Ying Zheng nodded in agreement.

Normally, this kind of major event has to be discussed by confidants, weighing the pros and cons, and after it is passed, it is brought to the court to say.

In this way, these henchmen can help them deal with those who oppose them.

And this kid didn't have to discuss it at all, and he directly dealt with those old guys, and he also has some ability!
