"Relocation to the Great Moe Country?" Fuso townspeople are all stunned, Nakatane-cho is not a big town, the total number of people is less than a thousand, and Tanegashima is isolated overseas, even in a poor and remote country like Fuso, it is also a poor and remote place, if it weren't for the fact that this became the birthplace of Fuso's fire, I don't know how many Fuso people don't know that there is such an island in their country.

The whole of Fuso is still in a barbaric state, and the culture has not been opened, so in a rural place like Nakatane, the culture has not been opened, and these townspeople don't understand what kind of place the big moe country is.

In fact, this phenomenon is not surprising, even in later generations when there were televisions, telephones, all kinds of modern communication equipment and media, the old people in some mountain villages in Yunnan could not understand the world outside the mountains, and if you told them about the United States and Britain, they would not know what it was at all.

After Oda Nori finished speaking, these Fuso townspeople had never heard of the Great Moe Country at all, and asked blankly: "Your Royal Highness Princess, where is the Great Moe Country?

The so-called Shikoku is actually a large island in Fuso. The China in the mouth of the Fuso people does not refer to the Great Moe Country, but to the central part of the main island of Fuso, that is, near the Kyoto Town, where the emperor is located, and that place is called China by the Fuso people.

Fuso is a very place, and they like to use the word "country" to refer to some mung bean-sized land, such as Echizen Province, Omi Province, and Higo Province...... These places called countries are actually only the size of a palm, or the size of a mung bean, and put them into the big budding country. It's not as wide as a small Jiashan oasis.

Therefore, the big moe country that Oda Nori said in his mouth was understood by these townspeople to be a small place on Fuso Island.

Oda Nori was about to explain, but Iyun reached out to stop her. Although he didn't understand Fusang very well. But after playing games for a long time and watching too many anime, I can still understand the words Shikoku and China. So big that I guessed what the townsfolk were asking.

He dragged Oda Nori aside and said with a grin: "You don't need to explain to them, just let them think that the Great Meng Country is in Fuso, and then turn them to the Great Meng Country first! My oasis is in ruins, and it needs a lot of labor, so if you can cheat, you can cheat, if you don't have to cheat, you have to escort them with a fire gun, how discordant." ”

Oda Nori nodded obediently. He turned back to the townspeople and said, "Dameng Country is on the other side of the sea, and it is a very prosperous place, and you will definitely like it when you go." ”

The townspeople didn't have any special opinions about whether it was prosperous or not, but one of the townspeople had the courage to jump out and ask, "May I ask Your Highness, how does the Great Meng Kingdom collect taxes?"

The tax at the time of the Fuso Warring States period was very perverted!

To what extent is it perverted? The peasants put away 10 catties of grain. Seven catties must be handed over to the daimyo, and even some harsh daimyo have to collect eight catties, that is, the tax is as high as ten taxes and seven, or ten taxes and eight. What a horrible collection is this?

Can you imagine that you worked hard for a month and got a salary of 1,000 yuan, and as a result, the state collected 700 yuan in taxes, and you still don't have to live? So, in the shabby place of Fuso, the peasants could not afford to eat rice, and after they planted the rice, they gave 70 or 8 percent of the rice to the daimyo, and the remaining 20 or 30 percent were used to exchange it for salt, cloth, and some necessities of life.

So what do they eat?

Bran!, or rotten vegetable leaves boiled in water!

This is by no means nonsense and alarmism by the author, and if the officials are interested, they can check the relevant historical documents, and there are many documents that have recorded this. There is an anime called "The Legend of the Seven Samurai", which also depicts this problem from the side.

Tanegashima's tax revenue is seven out of ten! This is relatively low in Fuso, and the peasants here are quite satisfied with this kind of tax, and their small life is actually difficult, but they can barely survive. When they heard that they were going to be ordered to relocate, the first thing they thought of was the tax issue, and if the tax was raised from seven out of ten to eight out of ten, it would be over. ...,

Oda Nori said to Iyun, "Xianggong, they asked questions...... Ask us, how much tax does Da Meng collect in the country?"

"How much tax do you collect?" Yi Yun listened to this question, and almost blurted out a sentence: tax exemption for low income.

The current Shanghai Oasis implements a tax system similar to that of later generations, and Yiyun has delineated a tax line according to the average living standard, and people with lower income do not have to pay taxes. But that is for the people of their own country, and it is regarded as a social welfare for the people of their own country, but now it is necessary to levy outsiders, which is different. If the tax exemption policy is also used for the Fuso people who have relocated to the past, it will not be used to give the welfare of their own country to the people of other countries?

Yi Yun turned to Li Chengyu and said, "What is the tax collection method of our Dameng Country?"

Li Chengyu laughed and said, "I haven't explained it for a long time, and now it's finally my turn." Let me make a special explanation, our Dameng country has adopted a policy of encouraging Mintun in the newly developed oasis. If the government provides ploughing cattle for the peasants to cultivate, then at the time of harvest, the peasants will pay five out of ten taxes, and if the peasants do not use the ploughing cattle provided by the government and cultivate the land on their own, then there will be three out of ten taxes. ”

Yi Yun laughed and said, "Interesting, Seawe, you can translate what General Li said to these townspeople." ”

Oda Nori hurriedly translated it softly.

As soon as she finished speaking, the townspeople suddenly shouted: "So low? This is impossible, too low!"

I saw a kind of surprise and surprise on everyone's face, and some people even fainted with joy on the spot, and some people rubbed their ears, suspecting that they had heard it wrong.

Think about it, let's say you are a farmer, and you have paid ten taxes seven or eight for several lifetimes, and suddenly someone comes to you and says, "Come to me, as long as you pay three of the ten taxes, if I give out the cattle to help you plough the land, you only need to pay five of the ten taxes." Can you not be overjoyed to hear such news?

"That's it!" Oda Nori said very seriously, "I'm a princess, can I lie?"

As soon as she said this, the doubts of the townspeople immediately dissipated. Although the poor place of Fusang was not civilized and poor, although it was so poor that it was to death, the people of Fusang were still very good at speaking at that time. When two samurai fight, they say that they will only move their hands and feet, and those who violate the faith and move their feet will regret it afterwards and die by seppuku.

In fact, although the spirit of bushido has many silly places, it is still very good in terms of paying attention to words.

"Wow, that's great, moving, moving!"

"I'm going to the big moe country!"

"Let's all go, it's great to pay three out of ten!"

"If I only need to pay 10 taxes and 3 taxes, I can eat the rice I grow...... I really want to taste what rice tastes like. ”

Seeing these fools blindly happy, Yi Yun couldn't help but snort a few times in his heart: A group of second goods, when you arrive in the country of Da Meng, live for a few more days, learn the Da Meng language, and communicate with the local people, you will slowly find out. The local farmers in the big Meng country don't have to pay taxes, it's ten taxes and zero at all, only you stupid forks are ten taxes three and ten taxes five, and then you will cry and beg me to join the big Meng nationality...... But it's not so easy to join our Dameng nationality, I can only temporarily issue you a green card, allowing you to temporarily live in Dameng country, hum! You must live for a certain number of years before you can give you a new nationality, hahahaha.

Yi Yun thought evilly, and couldn't help but smile on his face.

At this time, the blacksmiths among the townspeople also began to come out of the crowd and gather aside. Tanegashima is the birthplace of Fuso firearms, and the total number of residents in Nakanegase Town is less than 1,000, but there are more than 100 blacksmiths who come out of the crowd. ...,

The usual job of these blacksmiths was to make a large number of "iron cannons", that is, fire guns, and hand them over to Tanegashima Tokiyao, who then sold these iron cannons to the whole of Fuso.

After the blacksmiths walked out, one of them came out a big man who looked to be about forty years old, and he said respectfully to Oda Nori, "Your Royal Highness Princess, my name is Yaban Kanbei, and I am the master of all Tanegashima craftsmen. ”

The so-called master craftsman means master, and this person named Yaban Jinbei actually claims to be the master of all the gunsmiths, which is really a big breath. In fact, he is qualified to say this, because Yaban Kanebei is the craftsman who made the first fire gun in Fuso.

Ten years ago, when Hachiban Kanebei was still thirty years old, the Portuguese drifted to Tanegashima Island, where they demonstrated a weapon that could kill enemies from a distance, namely the fire gun. At that time, Tanegashima Shiyao was very interested in this kind of firecracker, so he bought two for two thousand taels of silver, and ordered the eight-plate gold guard to copy it.

Pity...... The eight-plate gold guard has not been able to imitate successfully, just like the blacksmiths of the Great Meng Kingdom under Yi Yun can't imitate the parts of the rifle. As it happened, the following year, another Portuguese ship arrived at Tanegashima, and Yachiban Kanebei hurriedly ran over to ask the Portuguese how to make a few key parts.

But the Portuguese are not stupid, how can good technology be passed on to outsiders? As soon as Yaban Kanbei, he married his daughter to the Portuguese, and as a result, he finally learned the technology of making firecrackers, and made the first firecracker in Fuso, which was later known as Tanegashima Gun.

Therefore, it is not too much for him to call himself the chief master of the Fuso Craftsman. He rubbed his hands together and said, "I want to ask on behalf of the craftsmen, the taxes given to the farmers in the Great Meng Country are so low, is there any special treatment for the craftsmen?"

This is nonsense, being a craftsman under Yi Yun's hands is really a lot of discounts. For example, the last time Yi Yun and Zheng Zhilong teamed up to deal with the Dutch, he built a blacksmith island, and the blacksmiths gathered on the island at that time all received huge rewards, which could allow them to eat, drink and be merry, for more than ten years.

However, with the matter of collecting taxes from farmers in front, Yi Yun had a long heart, and he would not casually talk about his welfare, he asked first: "Tell me first, how does Tanegashima Shiyao treat you?" (Your support on this site is my biggest motivation.) )
