Chapter 143: With great power comes great responsibility

"It's going to change the law again!"

When the Di Bao officially announced that the land of Gyeonggi would be used as a pilot to implement the use of apportionment into the mu, Kaifeng City was in an uproar.

Many people couldn't help but flash the painful scene of the Shenzong change eight years ago, at that time, it can be said that the crowd was angry, Wang Anshi called him a bad man, this is not the slander of the world, but his character is really portrayal.

At the beginning of the implementation of immunization money, Wang Anshi was extremely stubborn, and everyone was treated equally, whether they were poor or rich, they all had to pay immunization money.

After all, no one wants to pay money, and naturally everyone slanders him, and Wang Anshi's reputation for changing the law is extremely stinky, and no one is willing to support it.

"Servitude into the acre? Isn't it levying immunization money? ”

The people of Kaifeng were in an uproar, after all, the immunization money was really angry and resentful, and this stall should not change the soup or the medicine when it entered the mu!

"Blessed are the mud legs, the apportionment into the mu is no longer levied immunity money, but according to Yuanfeng's eight years of immunity money evenly distributed to the acres of land, this is called apportionment into the mu!" A showman's face was obscure.

The eighth year of Yuanfeng was the last year of the implementation of the new law, and after the old party came to power, it abolished the exemption law that everyone shouted about.

"What if there is no field?" An old man with a sad face asked tremblingly.

Xiucai said impatiently: "If the apportionment is into the mu, naturally there is no need to levy immunization money if there is no land, pay less for those with less land, and pay more for those with more land!" ”

The miserable old man's face was happy, and he shouted in his mouth: "Good plan! That's a great way! ”

For a long time, the poor people have been the object of oppression and exploitation, and now there is finally a good plan in favor of them, who are suffering from their lives.

A crowd of onlookers applauded.

Some people calculated that according to the regulations on the amount of labor per mu, a family with about 100 mu is equivalent to the tax paid before, and the less land there is, the lower the tax borne by the people, and the higher the tax borne by the landlord with more land.

Most of the land in Gyeonggi is where the powerful are located, and the land is very concentrated, and more than 70% of the households are less than 100 mu.

In other words, at least seventy percent of the farmers have supported the use of the apportionment, and in addition, the city of Kaifeng has a strong business, and many families do not rely on the land to live.

"What a good law, it's simply a bad law!" A group of landlords and wealthy households said angrily.

It is extremely unfriendly to the landlords who have a lot of land, so they have to bear several times more taxes than they did under the new law.

"Well deserved!"

The landlord overcharged taxes, which was naturally something that ordinary people were happy to see.

A group of large landowners repented of their mistakes, according to the original errand law, they were able to evade many taxes by virtue of their status and power, and when Wang Anshi changed the law, they treated them equally and paid the same taxes, but they were still not satisfied, and instigated those poor people to oppose the new law.

Now that the new law has been abolished, they will have to pay several times more than once the service is in the mu.

"Or we'll ............ again." A wealthy landlord was unwilling to complain and wanted to encourage the people to slander the apportionment of labor again. I think they used this trick to destroy the exemption law in the first place.

An enlightened person frowned and said: "Eighty percent of the mud legs are beneficial to the mu of servitude, who will follow you." ”

"Evil Doctor Fan Zheng!"

The landlords hated it so much, thinking about what kind of scenery the prince Anshi had at the beginning, but in the end he was not defeated in their hands, and he resigned several times.

However, in the face of the extremely evil Fan Zheng New Law, they have a feeling of helplessness.

"It's not over!" The landlords said coldly.

Inside the arched hall.

"Qiyu official's family, as soon as the servant enters the mu and goes out, everyone applauds the people with less land and more people! The people who have more land and less land have complained! Su Shi was responsible for collecting civil news from the newspaper and reporting it solemnly.

"Qiqi officials, most of the families with less land and more are poor families, and the apportionment of the mu is enough to reduce their taxes, while the people with more land and less are mostly rich families, and the increased taxes do not have much impact on them, this strategy is feasible!" Zhang Dian was the first to support.

Lu Dafang frowned and said: "The rich suddenly pay more taxes, I'm afraid they will be resentful!" It is not conducive to the name of the official family. ”

Baiguan nodded slightly, after all, they were all landlords and wealthy families, so they naturally didn't want to see their interests damaged.

Zhao Xu's face also sank, he naturally knew that once this strategy came out, it would cause dissatisfaction among the rich and landlords, but for the sake of enriching the country and strengthening the army, he couldn't take care of it.

Seeing this, Lu Dafang said again: "The policy of apportioning into the mu comes from the hands of Fan Taicheng, if the old minister remembers well, Fan Taicheng once said that the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, since everyone is responsible, how can the responsibility be attributed to the rich family." ”

"Lu Xianggong's words are reasonable!"

"Please think twice!"

The ministers were overjoyed in their hearts, Lu Dafang deserved to be the head of the hundred officials, and he found the loophole of the apportionment so quickly.

Attack the shield of the son with the spear of the son! This time, let's see how Fan Zheng quibbles.

The official family does not trust Fan Zheng the most, but they want to see how the official family maintains Fan Zheng.

Zhao Xu frowned, he didn't expect Lu Dafang to find a loophole in the stall service, and he would attack the new law at a critical moment.

Fan Zheng couldn't help but be stunned, he didn't expect that he was already hiding in the corner of the court, Lu Dafang still didn't let him go, and he had no choice but to come out at the moment: "In this way, Lu Xianggong recognizes the rise and fall of the world of the lower officials, and the husband is responsible."

"Fan Taicheng's words are subtle and thought-provoking, and he naturally agrees with him." Lu Dafang admired the eyes of his juniors, which made Fan Zheng extremely angry.

The other officials also looked shocked and praised Fan Zhengda.

However, the new party frowned, and how could they not see the sinister intentions of the old party.

"Everyone is responsible, not everyone's responsibility, is it the same as Lu Xianggong's responsibility for the prime minister and the responsibility of the imperial doctor?" Fan Zheng asked rhetorically.

Lu Dafang couldn't help but be stunned.

Fan Zheng continued: "The responsibility of the prime minister is to manage the officials of the world and assist the officials in handling the affairs of the world, while the imperial physician of Weichen is responsible for the doctors, so that the people of the world can be treated when they are sick, and they are responsible for the health and well-being of the officials. It is the same responsibility, but the responsibility is not the same, and the responsibility of the prime minister is naturally greater than the responsibility of the lower officials. ”

Zhao Xu's heart moved, and he immediately understood the main point of Fan Zheng's rebuttal.

Sure enough, Fan Zheng looked around at the ministers and said: "In the same way, the responsibilities of the hundred officials are also different, a seven-grade official only needs to be responsible for one county, and the Kaifeng prefect Su is a second-grade member who is responsible for the entire Kaifeng Gyeonggi land, how can the responsibilities of the two of them be the same, naturally the greater the official position, the greater the responsibility." ”

"And the officials are like this, and the people are not like this, the more fields, the greater the responsibility! The richer the farmer has more land, the stronger his ability to bear taxes, the more taxes he will naturally have to pay, and the poor have less land, and the weaker his ability to bear taxes, he can bear less taxes. ”

"This is the case for hundreds of officials, like the people, and for hundreds of families, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility!"

As Fan Zheng made a loud noise in the court, the hundred officials fell silent.

Right Prime Minister Su Zhe said solemnly: "The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, Weichen agrees with this!" It seems unfair to apportionment into the mu, but in fact, it is the great public of the world. ”

With Su Zhe's statement, the neutrals in the court expressed their support for the apportionment into the mu.

Seeing this, Lu Dafang sighed helplessly: "Fan Taicheng is talented, and he admires him!" ”

"Good! Su Aiqing, you will publish today's court opinion in the Di newspaper, so that the people of the world can understand the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, and understand the law of apportionment into the mu. Zhao Xu said in his heart

"Obey the order!" Su Shi said solemnly.
