On the third day after the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner, it was also the great court meeting of the Tang Dynasty, and in the early morning of this day, the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, officials who were qualified to participate in the court meeting from all over the country, and the families of Central Asia and South Asia basically arrived.

Because of the large number of people, this court meeting was specially held in front of the people, and a famous eunuch held up a parasol for everyone.

This court meeting talked about the newly changed system of the Tang Dynasty.

These include the change of titles, the change of treatment, the maintenance of officials, the specific situation of the fiefdom of the family, and the materials that can be obtained in the Tang Dynasty after someone has accumulated enough military merits and political achievements in the future, etc.

This court meeting also raised the status of businessmen, gave businessmen tax payment, non-governmental scientific and technological innovation, and maintained a stable promotion system.

Yes, Li Shimin is very awesome to add tax payment to his contribution to the country.

And the tax rate of all walks of life has been re-approved.

Taxes are levied according to the degree of windfall profits in each industry.

Li Shimin's hand made all the participants understand one thing, Li Shimin really wants to maintain peace in Datang.

As long as he can contribute to the stability and prosperity of Datang, then he is willing to give the other party a noble identity and status.

The South Asian families did not care about the improvement of the status of merchants, and even resisted a little.

The Central Asian families welcomed it.

South Asia resists because in their view, they are just working part-time, although they also have a lot of power, but what they do is more to educate other places, destroy the other party's culture, and turn it into the culture of the Tang Dynasty, which is also their main contribution to the Tang Dynasty.

And in this process, they can get the title of Datang and a lot of money.

The reason why the Central Asian family welcomed the elevation of the status of merchants was that it would allow commerce to expand, and with merchants as a link, the Tang Dynasty would drive the economic development of their feudal state.

In Central Asia, there were only thirteen states established by a single family plus the alliance-like feudal states.

And the northern families of the Tang Dynasty add up to more than 60 large and small.

It can be said that this gap is very large.

It can also be seen that the difficulty of establishing a feudal state, they need merchants as a link to give them blood transfusions from the Tang Dynasty.

After the businessman's business was finished, Li Shimin talked about the craftsman again, no, it should be a matter of the status of a researcher, and he set up a glorious title.

This has also been welcomed by everyone.

As everyone has paid attention to technological innovation in recent years, everyone has found that every technological change can make their strength skyrocket and plummet.

The skyrocketing is because the technology was made by itself, and the wild drop is because the other party has made it out and affected itself.

Therefore, everyone welcomes the promotion of the status of craftsmen with the official endorsement of Datang.

They are willing to give money, give people status.

The court meeting was held for five days in a row, and everyone came every day, listened every day, and chose what was beneficial to them.

Basically everyone gets what they want.

On the second day after the end of the court meeting, as the content of the court meeting was distributed to the whole country with the Di newspaper, a large number of big businessmen from all over the country poured into the county offices.

They admit that they are guilty, that it was wrong for them to evade taxes in the past, and that they are willing to pay taxes and make up taxes.

And one merchant after another holds his own account book.

With a blank eye, he paid one large amount of taxes after another to the county office.

This made the officials everywhere very angry, and they really wanted to cut them down, you brutes had escaped so much before.

Li Shimin was also very angry when he got the news, and angrily issued a forgiveness order, and the past things were written off, and if he evaded taxes in the future, he would all be killed.

However, the merit obtained from the tax payment will be halved from the previous one.

Even so, these businessmen are willing, and patted their chests and said that they will never evade taxes again, and will truthfully improve the wages and efficiency of the people, and strive to stimulate local economic development and assist the government.

As soon as Li Shimin's regulations for accumulating merits came out, they were really excited.

It's so cool.

The businessmen working in Liaodong were even more excited, and they even asked, can we come to Datang to pay taxes with the money we earn from Liaodong?

We are also willing to halve the merits.

The remark embarrassed many officials.

A group of officials even wondered if they should learn more about the new era, and they felt that they were more or less unable to keep up with the development of the times, which was very bad.

After returning home, officials from various localities also vigorously publicized the contents of the meeting.

They want to motivate the people under their command.

One of the contents of the court meeting is that if you farm well, the state will also reward you.

Land, money, origin.

If you contribute your experience and drive the output of the people around you, the government will reward you with a sum of money.

This made many people go straight into a state of disbelief when they heard it.

The title of the House of Honor has also been sent to all parts of Datang.

Many of the families of former meritorious ministers have hung up the sign of the House of Honor.

After studying all the contents of the court meeting, Li Kuan found that Li Shimin was really awesome, and Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others were also really good at playing, and they were thieves who played with honor.

It really drove the subjective initiative of all classes in the Tang Dynasty.

If nothing else, let's just say that the veterans who died in the Central Asian war, there is a person from a Central Asian family, a local official from a local official, and a person from the military on behalf of the country, and the three of them jointly wrapped the ashes of the veteran with a military flag and sent them back, and presented the title of the House of Honor in front of everyone, which directly made the remnants of this family burst into tears.

Coupled with a series of accompanying benefits, many people knelt down directly to say that Datang is really getting better and better.

After personally seeing the situation of a common man's house crying bitterly, Li Kuan couldn't help but sigh: "It turns out that the blood of honor has long been engraved into the DNA. ”

In the 21st century, Li Kuan personally saw the situation of three generations of a family and five men who sacrificed their lives for the country.

When the children of the fourth generation grew up, they resolutely chose to join the army and serve the country.

Li Kuan always thought that it was the situation in the future, but he didn't expect to see it in this era.

The influence of this court meeting has emerged in Datang one after another.

Li Kuan has a feeling that Li Shimin in this life will definitely be pushed to the first emperor of the ages, the kind of civil and martial arts.

But he also sincerely blesses Li Shimin, hoping that Li Shimin can do better and better, and don't be old and faint.

As long as it doesn't become like Li Longji, other Li Kuan can accept it.

Li Longji's guy is really speechless, he could have competed for the first emperor of the ages, but he almost fell to the level of King Zhou You.

"Tsk, with the current population of more than 40 million people in Datang, it is estimated that the land reward will not be sealed for 50 years."

Li Kuan couldn't help but complain after seeing the population of the Tang Dynasty.

The main reason is that the scope of Datang's control is too large now.

Not counting the original Central Plains, it now includes Central Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia and part of Eastern Europe.

Eastern Europe was sent by the families of Central Asia.

There were all races of tribes, and they were crushed by a blow.

But the land there was indeed planted with the banner of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Kuan was also thinking about whether to get a flag-raising ceremony for Datang.

Thinking about it, I wrote a letter and folded it.

However, the scope that Datang now has is indeed large, and the big one is outrageous, and it can't be occupied at all with the current population alone.

Of course, 40 million is talking about the Han population of the Tang Dynasty.

There are still millions of Xia people in the steppe, a small Sassanid Persian population of 20 million in Central Asia, and a population left behind by the Brahmins in South Asia.

It is worth mentioning that the most high-quality population in this era is still the Tang Dynasty, and the most garbage is the Wa Kingdom.

The average height of the population of the Tang Dynasty in this era was more than 1.7 meters, and the level of the Wa Kingdom was less than 1.5 meters.

The gap is big.

Li Kuan thief was happy.

After the influence of the dynasty, the first thing Li Kuandid was to find Lu Dongzan.

"Although you provoked me, I still decided to release a batch of Tibetan prisoners back with mercy."

"Do you want it?"

Lu Dongzan's face immediately became gloomy when he heard Li Kuan's words, and he had a bad feeling.

If you want to say it, the weasel is not happy to give the chicken a New Year's greeting.

But Lu Dongzan still gritted his teeth and said, "I want it." ”

Li Kuan said happily: "Let's go, I'll take you to the workshop and factory to pick up people." ”

"A whole factory of people, all pay you back."
