Chapter 956: Immortal Tablet

The events in the palace determined the content of the "Datang Weekly", and on the second day, the "Datang Weekly" was issued, and the first announcement promulgated a new Datang edict.

The content is very simple: after discussions between His Majesty and the three provinces, in order to encourage the people of the world to immigrate to plant more land, and in order to make the people of the world live a better life, His Majesty decided to subsidize the existing agricultural tax of Datang.

The method of subsidy is very simple, all the people of Datang will pay agricultural tax to the Datang National Grain Reserve Management Company according to the original tax amount. However, the Tang Dynasty will subsidize the agricultural tax paid by all the people according to the market price, and the subsidized price is the national uniform price, once wheat is 100 Wen, a stone of corn is 80 Wen, and once rice is 110 Wen.

The subsidy will continue to be subsidized for five years, during which the people of Datang can pay the minimum agricultural tax, but there is no upper limit, and they can also buy and sell freely in the market.

Tang grain storage did not limit the amount of grain that the people could buy and sell.

As soon as this announcement came out, the people of the entire Chang'an City thought that they were wrong at first, wasn't it a notice of price and tax? When they repeatedly asked the people around them to confirm the content of this announcement, the entire Chang'an City and all the people around it were completely boiling.

Many people who are usually reluctant to buy newspapers have paid a few pennies to buy these newspapers! They felt that such an important event must be bought back as a witness.

What's more, Datang Weekly is actually not expensive!

Only a small part of the people in Chang'an City have really left farming, and the first batch of workers are not completely out of farming, but are still farming.

In other words, this announcement is at least closely related to 80% or 90% of the people in the entire Chang'an City!

You can imagine how big a sensation it caused! They had never heard of a dynasty that had completely exempted the peasants from taxes, and even ten taxes were an extremely benevolent policy in many dynasties! What's more, now it is not only equivalent to tax exemption, but more importantly, it is necessary to pour money to the people.

Is this called an agricultural tax? Isn't this a benefit?!

No wonder all the people were in disbelief when they first heard it, shouldn't this be a scene in a dream? On this day, on the streets of Chang'an City, from time to time, people who got the news knelt on the ground without saying a word, heading in the direction of the palace.

Outside Chang'an City, in a village about fifty miles away from Chang'an City, in the morning, a fast horse galloped directly into the village, and the people who came shouted loudly while running: "Everyone gather in the threshing field, everyone gathers in the threshing field!" ”

The familiar and rough voice woke up the whole village, now all the people in the village are living very well, especially this year's harvest year has made all the people smile, now the winter wheat has already been ready for the last crop, and the next long winter will not be a big deal for them.

The only problem is that this year's agricultural tax has not been paid, but they don't care about the agricultural tax at all, although the agricultural tax paid in the past few years may add up to the sum of the past few years, after all, the agricultural tax is calculated according to the output of a field.

But the remaining grain is enough for them to have a good year, not to mention, they can even take out a large amount of grain to sell in exchange for some cloth, in exchange for some iron tools, and even buy some meat, so that they can have a good year during the Chinese New Year this year! Eat a meal of dumplings with meat!

They all knew the voice coming from outside the door, it was Wang Er, the security army in charge of their village, Wang Er was actually a person in their village, after becoming a government soldier, and now he has become a member of the security army of the Ministry of Public Security.

But they are all people from their own villages, of course they are very familiar with each other, and when they hear Wang Er's greeting, they all know that I am afraid that the matter of agricultural taxes has come down, after all, there is such a major thing left this year.

But everyone had no opinion, and they all went to the barn with a smile, after all, the days of Datang are too good now. This year's high-yielding seeds are all provided by His Highness, and such high-yielding seeds do not require them to pay more agricultural taxes, but only require them to plant.

And after planting, there are no requirements, just hope that the people of Datang can live a good life.

It's a pity that such a good highness is actually the third son of His Majesty, not the crown prince. If it was the crown prince, Datang might be better. All the people had a longing in their hearts, but of course they couldn't say it.

If the royal affairs are spread in vain, it will be a head-off.

However, every household actually secretly set up an immortal tablet for His Royal Highness, and of course His Majesty.

They hope that His Highness will live forever.

All the people in the village soon gathered in the barnyard, their village has a large population, the whole village is close to a hundred households, Guanzhong is densely populated, and their village is not the largest.

"Fellow villagers, my second king will be rude once today." Wang Er was standing on top of the largest stone mill in the middle of the threshing floor at this moment, looking at the more than 100 people around him, and said loudly.

"Everyone is a folk, Wang Er, if you have anything, just say it directly." Someone in the village immediately spoke loudly.

"Yes, let's talk quickly, is the agricultural tax going down? Where do we have to pay the agricultural tax? Is it a township or a county seat? ”

"That's it, hurry up, while it hasn't snowed yet, otherwise the road won't be easy to walk after the snow."

"That's right."

Everyone in the village spoke one after another.

"Fellow villagers, this time you have to thank Your Highness well, and hurry up to set up an immortal tablet for Your Highness." Wang Er was a little excited and said loudly.

Wang Er's words made the people in the village stunned for a moment, and then there was a "boom", and everyone burst into laughter.

"Wang Er, you're not mistaken, right? Do you think there are still people in our village who have not set up an immortal tablet for His Highness? Who? Say it and see, without His Highness's blessing, we can live a good life today? We all wish that Your Highness would live forever. ”

"That's it, Wang Er, what kind of nonsense are you talking about, what are you going to say quickly?"

"Wang Er listens to you, is this year a good thing? Isn't it going to take a tax cut? ”

The people in the village all smiled and said, Immortal tablet? It's not just the immortal tablet, their village is ready to invest in every household, and then build a new smaller ancestral hall, and then worship His Royal Highness inside! Give His Highness incense during the New Year's holidays!

Let's not talk about living a good life, and I heard that the "Barefoot Doctor's Manual" was studied by Sun Simiao and Sun Zhenren under the auspices of His Royal Highness, and the "Barefoot Doctor's Manual" alone saved at least several children and mothers in their village.

What is it? This is obviously a book for children, many sons and many blessings! So if you have an ancestral hall in the future, it's okay to ask His Highness for a son, right? His Royal Highness must be a god in the sky, and he must know everything.
