"Tell me about it." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"Exemption from agricultural taxes and forced labor is something that all dynasties and dynasties have not been able to do, but if we do our great cause, it will undoubtedly be able to quickly win people's hearts.

These two things are the two things that weigh the most on the peasants.

If we ......."

Before Li Shanren finished speaking, Song Lian sneered: "How can the country develop, is it all supported by commercial taxes?" ”

Li Shanren smiled, "Why not?" Two or three hundred years ago, the Central Plains was weak, but the annual tax revenue was 120,000 yuan, at that time, the Central Plains only occupied the south, there were Jin Kingdom, Western Xia, and the surrounding areas were strong enemies.

And my big business, isn't the situation very similar to back then?

It's just that the country is strong and the people are rich at this time, which is far from being comparable to the Central Plains at that time.

But now, the national tax is only 11 at that time, isn't this a joke?

If the great cause has 10,000,000 taels of tax silver a year, then what does it matter if the world's agricultural taxes are exempted?

What does it matter if the world is exempted from servitude?

It's not my empty white teeth nonsense, it's a comparison. ”

"Yes, but there was no exemption from agricultural taxes at that time, was there?" Song Lian sneered: "If the state doesn't collect grain, will it let those businessmen take it and then raise the price of grain?" ”

"Didn't the king of Weihai already say that he would change the agricultural tax to collect grain, and choose more places as grain collection areas.

If the national tax is 10,000 taels, take out 11 to collect grain, which is enough to support the country for one or two years. ”

"All this is 10,000,000 taels of taxes, but now it's only 15,000,000 taels, when will the state collect so many taxes, let's talk about it!" Song Lian said coldly: "For now, exempting grain taxes and forced labor is shaking the foundation of the country!"

If an enemy country uses this to propagandize, how should it be handled? ”

Liu Ji also said: "Master Song's words are reasonable, although the idea is good, but it must also be in line with reality." ”

"What is realistic? In my opinion, you are too cowardly to let go of your hands and feet to take this opportunity.

King Weihai has set an example for us with practical actions, if we can't learn anything, then we can only say that we are incompetent, and we can't blame King Weihai for shaking the foundation of the country!

King Weihai's small actions can easily shake the foundation of the country, which shows that the foundation of the country for our great cause is not reliable at all.

In that case, it's better to rebuild the foundation! Li Shanren's words were a bit radical, but he felt that the time was ripe for the new system to be promoted throughout the country, or it would not be long before the tax revenue of the great cause would inevitably rise to a higher level.

The country has money, if it continues to squeeze the people, the country is strong and the people are weak, this is not a good thing.

"Fallacy!" Song Lian said with a cold face.

"Okay, don't fight, wait until you get to Weihaiwei, and you'll know when you see the sixth child!" Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, and then the carriage fell silent.

In the past few days, Zhu Yuanzhang has passed through several directly governed prefectures and seen the city-states around the directly governed prefectures, and the state capitals around the roads of these directly governed prefectures, all of which have benefited.

That kind of prosperity is something Zhu Yuanzhang has never seen before.

At the beginning, he jumped out to oppose Song Lian in various ways, but he didn't speak anymore in the back.

Li Shanren said: "Your Majesty, the prosperity of this directly governed government is no longer lost to Wu Di, and some places are even better developed than Wu Di. ”

Wudi, as a major tax area for the great cause, has always developed very well.

But now someone suddenly told you that a few unfavored little brothers outside of Wu Di actually slowly caught up, and even had the meaning of going hand in hand, how can this not be shocking.

Zhu Yuanzhang usually only got a glimpse of the situation in the Zhizhi Prefecture in the twists and turns, but now he has seen it with his own eyes.

Well-groomed streets, excellent facilities, hospitals, schools, public transport, and workshops.

In particular, the extra numbers in the yamen's ledger are unbelievable.

For the first time, Zhu Yuanzhang felt the power of the new system.

Finally, on the twenty-fifth day, Zhu Yuanzhang came to Weihaiwei.

Before that, he spent two days in Qingzhou.

Zhu Zinc is also a complete learner of his sixth brother, and he has done a good job in Qingzhou, but this kid is timid and does not dare to be exempted from agricultural tax and servitude, which is a symbolic exemption from grain tax and forced labor for five years, even so, it is already praised by all the people.

However, what made Zhu Zin depressed was that many people in Qingzhou also migrated to Weihaiwei.

When Zhu Yuanzhang's royal car arrived, Zhu Jun also took his family out of the city to greet him.

When they left Beijing, Da Niu and Erniu couldn't walk, and now the two brothers are like chatterbox.

Zhu Jun also looked more calm than before.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang, he stepped forward and knelt down to greet him, "The son of the emperor sees his father." ”

Seeing that Zhu Jun still hadn't changed his title, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart, "Get up." ”

Immediately, he didn't look at Zhu Jun much, but ran over to tease several of his grandchildren.

To say this, Zhu Yuanzhang is very satisfied.

Zhu Jun is definitely the most fertile among all his sons.

Almost all of the wives and concubines gave birth to children, and this time, Xu Miaojin and Guanyin Nu were pregnant with a second child.

Very good.

Zhu Yuanzhang just likes the prosperity of his children and grandchildren.

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was unwilling to take care of himself, Zhu Jun didn't bother to come up.

Instead, he chatted with Li Shanren on his own.

Of course, Liu Ji and Song Lian did not fall behind.

Tang Ding is also there.

He's meeting his two daughters right now.

Tang Xiuling is also about to give birth, and this daughter who does not let him give birth to it can be regarded as taking root safely at this time.

After a period of greetings, Zhu Jun took Lao Zhu into the city.

The seaside town is much more prosperous than they could have imagined.

In Weihaiwei's previous descriptions, it was a small place, with simple people, but too poor.

At this moment, there are many people in Weihai Acropolis, and the people on the street are standing there watching and admiring themselves.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's royal car, they all knelt down and praised the Holy Son of Heaven.

This made Lao Zhu's vanity unprecedentedly satisfied.

Entering the Weihai Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang looked simple and rough, and felt a little indebted in his heart.

Like the other sons, when they became vassals, they were all kinds of rewards, and the royal palace of the fief was also built a long time ago.

Only Zhu Jun, when he was in the domain, there was nothing.

Even the palace is freshly made.

It's no wonder that Zhu Jun is alienated from himself.

"You're quiet here, away from the crowds, and this beach is a good place to take a walk." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"It's okay, it's not far away from the sailor training base, and it's lively every day.

Moreover, there are people in the city who have county offices and guards, and it doesn't matter if I'm not in the city, if there is a problem, I can meet the enemy at the beach as soon as possible! Zhu Jun said.

"This time you went on the expedition, you worked hard, everything you did, we can see it!" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes softened.

Zhu Jun said: "It is the duty of the sons and daughters to share their worries for their father!" ”
