At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang called Zhu Jun over, "You tell us, do you really have the intention of canceling the world's agricultural tax?" ”

"That's right!" Zhu Jun nodded, "But not now, the abolition of agricultural taxes is a good thing for the people right now, but the imperial court can't afford it."

At present, ninety percent of the taxes in our great cause are mainly grain taxes, and most of the taxes distributed to officials are grain.

Abolishing agricultural taxes is tantamount to a one-size-fits-all approach, and something will happen. ”

"You know that, too?" Zhu Yuanzhang snorted: "You give us an explanation, what do you think, if this matter is spread by someone with a heart, do you know how much trouble it will cause?" ”

"Yes!" Zhu Jun nodded, "But, there are two sides to everything, Dad, the people of the world, have been suffering from agricultural taxes for a long time."

If you want to put an end to land annexation and prevent the great cause from embarking on the road of national destruction in the future, you must find another way! ”

"In your eyes, the cause will perish?" Zhu Yuanzhang is angry, even if Guozuo Wannian is fake, no one wants to listen to this kind of.

"Am I still talking about this?" Zhu Jun asked rhetorically: "In fact, after coming to Fengyang, I have been thinking about how to get the great cause out of the predicament, just relying on the gourd to draw a scoop according to the previous dynasty, or the previous dynasties to solve the problem, it is still not enough."

Every dynasty has its own difficulties.

More than 1,000 years ago, the world was not unified, countries were side by side, and wars were raging.

So the First Emperor came into being, destroying all countries and unifying the Central Plains.

Later, the family gate valve was high, the imperial examination came into being, and the gate valve finally ushered in the end.

Later, the gate valve was gone, and the emperor shouted out the sentence of ruling the world with scholars.

The literati ruled the country and the armament was relaxed, which wiped out the backbone of the Central Plains people.

This is where the Meng Yuan invasion took place.

Later, the Red Turban Army came and expelled the Mengyuan, and the Three Kingdoms were established, although the Mengyuan people had not been completely eliminated, but it was difficult to become a big trouble.

Destroying Chen Han and Zhang Zhou and expelling Meng Yuan is the long-term goal of my great cause.

But this is external.

The internal problem is very big, just like the empty seal case, at first glance it seems that the officials are lazy, but in fact, it is the problem of the imperial court.

It's a matter of traffic, freight, information lag.

In Guo Heng's case, the imperial court was dedicated to relief, but it fed these rats.

If you think about it, isn't this a problem with the system? ”

"What the hell are you trying to say?" Zhu Yuanzhang frowned.

"Dad, what I want to say is that the problems that Daye has to face now are actually no different from those hundreds of years ago, some problems have been solved, but some problems have always been there.

The first thing to bear the brunt of is the agricultural tax, as I said a long time ago, the tax of the great cause is extremely low, and all dynasties and dynasties have ranked first.

However, the preferential treatment of the literati is too much, the land annexation will come back sooner or later, and the small people rely on the sky for food, and their ability to resist risks is too low.

encountered a disaster year, sold his sons and daughters, just to survive.

In order to avoid taxes, they will hang their land on the bodies of those who raise them, so that eventually there will be less and less land, and less and less taxes can be collected.

And in the future, the population of Daye will be more and more.

The emptiness of the treasury is, to some extent, a problem of the imperial court system.

If we want to get rid of this and make the great cause strong, sustainable taxation, and prosperity, we must let the farmers and the common people have the ability to resist risks.

A businessman with a family fortune of 10,000 taels is worth hundreds of farmers, how many businessmen are there in the world?

Thirty thousand, or fifty thousand?

How many households are there in Daye?

Has Dad thought about it?

Instead of squeezing the peasants, why didn't the imperial court shift its goals?

In the future, Fengyang will definitely be dominated by commercial taxes, and all the villages in Fengyang will implement the contract system, centralized planting, centralized harvesting, and yamen support.

Removing the family's food and selling the rest to the imperial court, I believe that the people will be able to live a better life.

And the court doesn't have to worry about running out of food. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was speechless for a long time, "So, you actually built the road to reduce losses?" ”

"That's one of the reasons." Zhu Jun said: "Abolishing agricultural taxes is the ultimate goal, once it is realized, do you know what it means?"

This means that you will be the first emperor in thousands of years to do such a feat.

At the same time, as soon as this news is released, what will the people over there be Chen Han and Zhang Zhou? ”

"They're going crazy!" Zhu Yuanzhang's breathing was heavy.

"That's right, they're going crazy!"

"What the imperial court wants is silver and grain, as long as a virtuous circle can be formed, what about the abolition of agricultural taxes?

So, I thought about it, and it was imperative.

You just can't do it all at once, you have to take your time! Zhu Jun said.

"Are you alone in thinking about this?" Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him directly.

"Some of them are what I thought about myself, and some of them were mentioned when my eldest brother taught me, and I love to think about it when I have nothing to do.

Coupled with the fact that Wu Wangfu also does business, I find that the people who do business are too rich.

It is much more than the peasants who make too much money by digging in the fields, but they can get rich with only a little tax. ”

"Therefore, the Yingtian Chamber of Commerce has made a lot of restrictions on businessmen, so you want those businessmen to recruit people on a large scale and give those workers the work to support their families."

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to know Zhu Jun for the first time, he now looked back and thought about Zhu Jun's various measures, at first he thought it was nonsense, but now he looks at it, it is clearly planned.

"I didn't think about it so much at the beginning, I just wanted to do something for the people, this is not coming to Fengyang, when the disaster was relieved, those people were too bitter.

If it weren't for my coincidental arrival, more than 3,000 people would have died, and I'm afraid more than half of them would have died.

I'm ashamed.

Among those who died, there were old people, young and strong, pregnant women with big bellies, and even ...... There are no full-term dolls.

My heart aches! ”

Zhu Jun looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with red eyes, "The peasants are too bitter, they have always been the most bitter, Dad, didn't you start the incident back then just to live a good life?"

So what is the difference between what we are doing now and Mengyuan in the past?

Therefore, we have to liberate thousands of poor people.

Just like you! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was silent, he was really taught a lesson by Zhu Jun today.

He's a bastard, he's really grown up.

The most important thing is that he has a kind heart, a brave heart to be the master of the people and dare to be the first in the world.

Yunwen Yunwu, and smart, have means, have a thunderbolt heart, and care for his relatives and friendship, it is really ...... Stunning!

Just like his big brother!

But his eldest brother is more calm, he is a little more jumpy, and he is even more composed, otherwise, he would not have kicked Yang Xian.

"We know, we will look at the results of Fengyang, and Hu Guoyong's side, we will also look at it, if it is suitable, those directly under the central government will be given priority as a pilot."

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "After you go to Ningbo Mansion, we will give you a power, and we will allow you to open the sea over there!" ”
