Since the beginning of the new year, Yang Guang, who is in Jiangdu, has already sent people to greet the county commanders of all parties, so that they can prepare early, and starting this year, the general jurisdiction of the old Yangzhou, the original forty-four prefectures, except for Jiangdu County, all other taxes will be paid.

As the chief person in charge, the Taishou of each county must spread this news as early as possible, so that all taxpayers can be prepared.

This preparation is necessary, because if you have not paid taxes for six years, then your daily expenses will be more relaxed, but if you have to pay taxes this year, you have to save a little bit and set aside the tax money for me.

lest I collect my taxes then, and you say you have no money.

This point is mainly to do the ideological work of the common people, and the family will not be short of that little tax money, but the tax is a very large expense in the family for the common people.

The reason for this is the lack of land grants.

But in Jiangnan, it is different, the entire Jiangnan is now full of wide townships, that is, there are few people and many fields, and the acres of land under the name of the people here can make the people in the north envious to death.

After thousands of years, coupled with the Grand Canal, the development of Jiangnan has entered its heyday, and the degree of wealth here is staggering.

Some people in the land of fish and rice have as much acres of land as high as 70 percent of the land prescribed by law.

Where there are no heroes, the phenomenon of land annexation is not so serious.

That's why Yang Guang likes to come to Jiangnan, the people here have more smiles on their faces than northerners, and this place is like a prosperous era.

The Jiangnan Canal from Jiangdu to Yuhang has been excavated, in fact, this canal existed in the Spring and Autumn Period, but it has long been silted.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs is going through a process and drawing an account, but in fact, the money is in Jiangdu.

The money of the Yangzhou Mint is still minting, and it does not cause any inflation, after all, the money of the nobility is almost not in circulation.

To be precise, the money you spend is seriously disproportionate to the money you have, and the money is concentrated in the hands of a few people, but the bulk of consumption is always contributed by ordinary people.

Lingnan Xidao did not pay taxes last year, and there was no Tugong, which the imperial court understands, but from this year onwards, you must pay me the full amount of taxes, otherwise you will be exempted.

What Li Mi brought to Li Shimin was a set of acres of land system led by the prince and revised and improved by the subordinate officials of the East Palace, which was in line with the situation of Lingnan West Road.

Last year, Li Shimin didn't take it out, because the finishing things were too cumbersome, and he and the county officials didn't have time to explore the new system of acres of land, and he was still preparing for the weaving workshop.

But now, he had to prepare.

On this day, the magistrates of all counties were invited to the Shangshuling Mansion in Ningyue County.

This mansion is actually Ning Chun's home, and Li Shimin is a dove occupying the magpie's nest.

"The reserves of kapok are sufficient, and Ning Chun's several weaving mills in the city have been successfully renovated, and they are now weaving cotton cloth," reported Ning Huizao, the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

The kapok here in Lingnan is not the same thing as the cotton grown in the Yellow River and Jianghuai, it is staple fiber cotton, which is distributed in large quantities in Yunnan, Guangxi, Guangdong, Hainan and other places.

Staple fiber can also be made into cotton cloth, but it's rough, Feng Yuzhi's Jibei, aren't people also a baby?

Good quality has a good quality price, rough has a rough price, the goods on the market have a three, six, nine and so on, it is impossible to only have high and medium-end, no low-end goods, moreover, staple fiber kapok as a filler, is very suitable.

Li Shimin nodded and said with a smile: "The matter of weaving cloth will be handed over to you, I only need cloth, and I won't listen to your nagging." ”

The main thing is that he doesn't understand it, and he doesn't have the time to study it.

Sitting next to him, there is also Yang Qi, the princess of Jinyang, the relationship between the husband and wife is very good, Yang Qi is no worse than the eldest grandson queen, it can be said that it is still excessive.

Li Shimin looked at Li Mi and said, "Xuanmi, tell them about it." ”

Li Mi nodded, unfolded the file on the long table in front of him, and explained in detail to everyone:

"The prince in the East Palace to draw up this set of acres of land system, is on the basis of my Sui Tian system, according to the current situation in Lingnan slightly modified to become, in the new system, men and women under the age of three for yellow, under the age of ten for the small seventeen for the middle, eighteen or above for the Ding, Ding from the service, sixty for the old, is exempt from service, sixty-six and no, retired from the field."

Compulsory service is taxation and service, and at the age of sixty you are exempt from service, and if you die at sixty-six, you must return the land given to you by the state to the state.

Qiu He raised his hand and frowned, "Eighteen years old is considered Ding?" Three years more? ”

Li Mi explained with a smile: "Lingnan has few fields, so they can only give it like this, and if they give it to Tian at the age of fifteen, they can't keep up with the current speed of reclaiming wasteland." ”

Qiu He nodded: "It sounds quite reasonable, you continue." ”

Li Mi nodded, and continued: "Change the open air to divide the field into the mouth, a husband will give eighty acres of land, a woman will give forty acres, and each ding will give Yongye mulberry field twenty acres, that is to say, a husband and wife, a total of 120 acres of land and 20 acres of mulberry fields, the family has Ding Niu, an additional 40 acres of land, limited to four cattle, this is the same as the uniform field system, and has not been modified, but the prince said that although there are few fields in Lingnan, there are also few people, and we should try to give full land. ”

Cen Mingxiu, the Taishou of Yulin County, was dumbfounded: "If you give it like this, the chiefs of the tribes will not agree, isn't this just a household calculation, decomposing the tribal people from the tribe?" I thought you were going to change it, but it didn't change at all. ”

"This is the Juntian system of the Great Sui, do you know what steps the restructuring will go through?" Li Mi smiled: "How can it be an exception for Lingnan." ”

Cen Mingxiu shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid something is going to happen." ”

"With such a good system, those tribal slang people must be willing, and only those chieftains are not satisfied," Li Shimin said in a deep voice:

"I don't want to offend the people, but I'm not afraid of offending them, as for how to let the people understand and accept the country's policies, this is a matter for you to keep too much.

Cen Mingxiu didn't say anything more, and Li Shimin motioned for Li Mi to continue.

Li Mi said: "Among them, the Yongye field, that is, the mulberry field, the death of the inheritor, the family is poor, there is no burial, can sell the Yongye field, if the household is extinct, it will be returned to the government to re-grant the land; Among the Ding men, the disabled only gave 40 acres of land to the mouth and paid half a tax; Twenty acres of land for waste diseases and diseases are exempt from tax; Among the women, if they are widows and concubines, they will be given 30 acres of land, which is also half tax, and if there are other yellow, small, and middle to be raised, they will be exempt from tax. ”

Qiu He and the others were dumbfounded when they heard it, it was good enough, and they really took good care of Lingnan slang.

Li Mi looked at the crowd: "These policies, the township is wide and the law is followed, the narrow mouth is divided into fields by half, the taxes are also halved, and those who have no land in the county are subject to the county grant; In addition, the field is divided into three grades, the cultivator is not easy to go to the field, the one year old is one easy to go to the field, the two years old is easy to go to the field, when the field is granted, if it is the middle field, it needs to be doubled, that is, one hundred and sixty acres, if it is the field, it is doubled, that is, three hundred and twenty acres. ”

Everyone looked at each other, and in the original system, there was no such thing as three times the field, but twice the field, and forty acres more than the middle field.

In the field, it is necessary to let the land rest for a year before it can be cultivated, otherwise it will not grow when it is planted with grain, and it will not grow when it is planted, and it is called raising the field for two years.

Later generations are the use of various scientific and technological means and a variety of chemical fertilizers, in order to cultivate every year, in ancient times, the land is in need of rest.

"As for your positions, there are also revisions," Li Mi said.

The office field means that the local officials use the public land as their income, and the land granted to them is the place where the official governs, which is actually the salary.

This is of great interest to everyone.

"Fifteen hectares for one product, twelve hectares for two products, and ten hectares for three products." Li Mi said slowly.

One hectare is 100 acres, which is not low.

Qiu He and others are also very happy, because this salary is higher than the original salary, he is the founder of the county, is the second grade, the previous salary was ten hectares, but now it has risen by two hectares, not bad, two hundred acres.

Then, Li Mi explained in detail the amount of acres of land in Gongjian Field, which has increased compared with other places.

Therefore, Lingnan West Road is considered to be a high salary, after all, it is a poor place, and no matter how low the salary is, no one really wants to do it.

There is also Tuntian.

What is Tuntian? Tuntian is the field of supply of military rations, recruiting people to plant, this thing originated from Cao Cao, in the Northern Wei Dynasty entered the heyday, and then slowly changed to a border area or a place that is difficult to govern, only Tuntian.

Because Tuntian occupies the people's land, and if there is more Tuntian, there will be less people's land, so at present, there are only a few places in the Great Sui, Hexi, the northern border, the northeast Liaodong, and Lingnan also have to be implemented, because I have to raise soldiers.

The mainland generally does not cultivate fields, which is to compete with the people for profit.

In the early years, when the Chen Dynasty had just been destroyed, the Great Sui was in Tuntian in the Jianghuai region for three years, just to raise troops to suppress it, which was later revoked.

This is also the case in Lingnan now, there are still 5,000 people under Li Shimin's hands, these people will not farm here, and they have to rely on the locals to farm and raise.

So how much tuntian is set by Yang Ming, each county according to the situation, set up two tun to five tun, one tun is equal to 20 hectares, like Shi'an County, more stable, then you can set up two tun, that is, 4,000 acres of land to raise soldiers.

However, there is a premise that these tuntian fields cannot be allocated from the existing acres of land, but must be newly reclaimed acres, which is tantamount to using the army to persecute the people and actively open up wasteland.

Each camp is set up in a barracks to live in, each with a battalion number, and the captain is the battalion master.

Donggong's transformation of Lingnan, in addition to Tuntian, is Yang Ming's future reform of the Dasui Tianmu system, and Lingnan West Road is the experimental field of this system, and the various problems exposed here will be summarized and summarized into a system of fields and acres suitable for all parts of the world.

The first step in granting land is to check the household registration, which is the matter of Wei Fuhei, the secretary of the Lingnan Xingtai Military Department, and it is also the most difficult first pass.

After that, everything is fine.

Li Shimin was full of enthusiasm and decided to do a big job in Lingnan in accordance with the system agreed upon by the East Palace.
