"Then find a way to solve it yourself!" Yu Huatian said with a serious face: "You have to come down to make up our minds for us in everything, and what do you want us ministers to do!"

Hearing this, Hubu Shangshu couldn't help but his face tightened, and he lowered his head.

"It's all gone, and do the things at hand well!"

Yuhuatian said seriously!

The ministers agreed and withdrew one after another.

The ministers were sent away.Yu Huatian came to Liu Bowen, and said angrily: "I said Liu Bowen, didn't you see what the ministers were doing just now?"

"I see it, and I can see it clearly." Liu Bowen said calmly.

"I've seen it all, why are you still standing by and watching the excitement like a normal person?"

Yu Huatian couldn't help frowning, and said angrily, "Can't I help, let me tell you, just do their work?"

"I said, Lord Prime Minister, didn't you do a good job just now?"

Liu Bowen said calmly, "A few words calmed them down?"

Hearing this, Yu Huatian couldn't help but look helpless, and then said: "That's just using my prime minister's coercion to calm them down temporarily!"

While talking, Yu Huatian said to Liu Bowen with a serious face: "Master Liu, to be honest, I am also very surprised that His Majesty suddenly lowered the tax rate to 50 per cent and stopped collecting all corvees. I was not prepared at all. !"

Liu Bowen asked earnestly: "So you also feel that you have no idea, Mr. Prime Minister?"

Yu Huatian couldn't help but his face tightened, and then he said with some embarrassment: "To tell you the truth, I really don't know what to do!

Your Majesty's edict was too sudden, and he didn't inform us beforehand.

If you can communicate with us in advance, we should be prepared and discuss a countermeasure, right? "

"Who said His Majesty didn't ventilate in advance?"

Liu Bowen said with a straight face: "Didn't Your Majesty's previous edict already stated that the tax rate will be reduced to 50 per cent? Will the corvee be stopped?"

"At that time, it was said to be gradual, and it did not say that it should be implemented immediately!"

Yu Huatian hurriedly said: "It's meaningless to say these things now. Master Liu, you should think of a way, how to deal with the current problem!"

Liu Bowen then said: "Don't worry about the tax issue for now. After all, this year's tax has been exempted, and it will be collected next year."

Yu Huatian's eyes lit up immediately, and he hurriedly said, "What Master Liu said is absolutely true! The issue of tax rates will be discussed next year! There is no rush right now!"

Then he asked him anxiously: "Then what about the suspension of draft labor? This matter must be resolved immediately!

Otherwise, build the Great Wall and go straight.Chidao and the Mausoleum of the First Emperor are about to be shut down! "

Liu Bowen thought about it carefully, and then asked seriously: "Is there enough money and food in the treasury?"

"Master Liu, everyone is worrying about corvee work!"

Yu Huatian suddenly became anxious, and said anxiously: "Why do you still ask the treasury for money and food?"

"Just tell me whether the treasury has enough money and food!" Liu Bowen asked seriously.

"The national treasury is quite sufficient!"

Yuhuatian said angrily!
"Then it's okay to spend half a year's rations for 30 strong men, and another 3000 million yuan?"

Liu Bowen then asked.

"Squeeze it or get it out..." Yu Huatian suddenly understood what he was saying, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Master Liu, what do you mean, use money and food to hire strong men to work?"

"exactly."

Liu Bowen nodded and said: "Your Majesty's edict is to permanently stop conscripting labor, but it didn't say that it is forbidden to recruit strong men to do work!"

"This is really a good way!"

Yu Huatian nodded again and again, thought carefully, and couldn't help but feel sad: "Just to help a strong man are all recruited from everywhere. After working for so long, I have long been homesick."

As he spoke, Yuhuatian couldn't help but feel sad: "They are the strong laborers of the family, even if we provide money and food, they may not stay and work!"

"Prime Minister, don't worry."

Liu Bowen smiled slightly and said, "It's autumn harvest time now. Even if the strong men return to their hometowns, the autumn harvest has already ended, and the farm work is not busy anymore!"

Speaking of this, Liu Bowen said confidently: "They don't have anything to do when they get home, and they can earn a little money by staying here! After the calculation, they will stay!"

"It really makes sense!" Yu Huatian nodded after thinking about it carefully and said, "Master Liu, you really understand the people's thoughts very well!"

"It's just a long-term carelessness, knowing the sufferings of the people."

Liu Bowen said seriously: "Old people, don't you just want to have food, clothing and stability to live a life, and no one wants to make trouble! As long as they have enough to eat and wear warm clothes, they are the most honest people in the world!"

"What Master Liu said is absolutely true." Yu Huatian nodded and said, "Let's do it like this!"

Immediately, Yuhuatian made arrangements.Every civilian husband who serves in the army can go home, but if he continues to work, everyone will not only be provided with food and housing, but also get 30 yuan a month, which is a stone of millet wages!

"Prime Minister, since ancient times, there has never been a practice of paying wages to civilian husbands who serve in the army!"

Upon hearing this, Hubu Shangshu couldn't help frowning, and said hastily.

"They are not civilian husbands serving in the army now!"

Yu Huatian said with a serious face: "Don't forget that His Majesty has issued a decree, and from now on, any corvee will be permanently stopped!"

"Prime Minister..." Hubu Shangshu wanted to say more, Yuhuatian waved his hand impatiently, and said loudly: "Permanently stop conscription, they are free people now! If you want them to work, you have to pay! "

"I understand." The Minister of the Household Department agreed.

"This is the first time we have adopted the form of employment, we must establish credit!"

Yu Huatian went on to say: "The wages must be settled daily, and there must be no arrears! It is not allowed to deduct at will!

Tell those big and small leaders who are in charge of the project and manage the project, if they dare to be tempted by the workers' wages, I will definitely punish them severely!
Put them all into the project one by one, and serve hard labor! "

"Understandable!"

Hubu Shangshu hurriedly agreed loudly.

Soon, the folks at various construction sites got the news.

"Your Majesty has issued an edict to permanently exempt all kinds of corvee!"

A craftsman hurriedly shouted excitedly: "We can all go home now!"

"How is this possible? We are all home, who will do this job?"
