Crossing Wu Dalang starts from selling cakes

Chapter 442 Song Huizong wants to inspect the people's sentiments!

Wang Fu also echoed at this time: "We don't doubt King Yan's ability, it's just that the sudden surge of such a high harvest, Yan Yun's situation can't be seen, can't be confirmed!"

Wu Zhi looked at Wang Fu: "Master Wang, you mean to tell the truth, you are the prime minister of a country, and you will lie in front of His Majesty in the Great Song Dynasty?"

"Looking at the truth, Mr. Wang is old, and his mind is a little confused!"

"This..." Wang Fu lost his temper after being teased by Wu Zhi, but he didn't dare to speak back.

He only dared to raise doubts, but he dared not defy the prime minister openly.

Otherwise he is really confused.

Wu Zhi: "Reporting false data in the court, thanks to your imagination, this tax is turned over to the Song Dynasty treasury. Could it be that I lied, and I have to find so much money to fill it in? Would you do this kind of thing? ?”

Guo Feiming still said: "Although this is the case, this kind of harvest is too amazing, and it is reasonable for us to raise doubts. Minister Wu, there is no problem with this!"

Wu Zhi smiled and said, "What did Mr. Guo just say?"

"What?" Guo Feiming was puzzled.

Wu Zhi: "You said that even if Yanyun is a land of barbarians, under the management of the truth, the harvest must have skyrocketed, which can be compared with the Song Dynasty, but the data that I wanted to report now can indeed be compared with the Song Dynasty. How can Mr. Guo I'm getting suspicious again!"

Wu Zhi shook his head, with a helpless look: "You are the one who said that Yanyun is a barbarian land, and you are the one who said that Yanyun can be governed by the truth, and you are the ones who raised taxes, but now Yanyun's tax revenue is obviously many times higher than in previous years. But you don't believe it anymore?"

Wu Zhi: "Master Guo, what do you want to be satisfied with? Your Majesty, you can judge, Mr. Guo, and Mr. Wang are neither on the left nor on the right. Isn't this nonsense!"

"..." Guo Feiming was at a loss for words for a moment, his face turned pale.

Prince Zhao Heng also bowed his head, embarrassed by what he said.

It was indeed he and the prince who praised and killed Wu Zhi just now, but now that Wu Zhi has made achievements, they began to question again.

Yes, what kind of trouble is this?

Right or left?

You all have one mouth to co-author, so you can say whatever you want?
Song Huizong smiled and said: "Mr. Wu, don't worry about it like them. Now that Yanyun has such a good harvest, they doubt you, but I don't doubt it, but I am also curious about how Yanyun raised so much tax at once. Even I can't imagine, the tax of more than 200 million is really amazing!"

Wu Zhi nodded, and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty also pricked up their ears patiently, wanting to hear how Wu Zhi did it.

Wu Zhi said with a smile: "The reason why there is such a high taxation in Yanyun is not only because of the excellent seeds provided by Wei Chen, but also because in Yanyun, all the land is distributed to the people, and the loan allows them to plant, plant Good thing they all got something.

There are no complicated dignitaries occupying the fields, so every place will increase production and pay taxes through the efforts of the people. "

"In the Northeast, Jinfu, Northwest, and Northern Shanxi are all places with extremely fertile land, and there are also many planting and breeding industries developing there."

"In addition, the new fields that have been reclaimed are all used, and there is no hoarding and waste. There are also all kinds of good seeds. The common people plant their own fields, and instead of working for other nobles, they work harder. The fields are distributed fairly. It is also hard work, so it is not uncommon for the tax to come up under the hard work of the whole people!"

Song Huizong asked: "But all the land in the south will also be taxed. Why are there so many Yanyun?"

Wu Zhi smiled, and then looked at a group of courtiers behind him: "Your Majesty, I have to ask them!
Since the period of Emperor Taizong of the Great Song Dynasty, many nobles of the Great Song Dynasty have obtained their own territories in many areas. Their lands are of different sizes. In order to ensure the production of their own places, they occupy the best fertile and fertile fields. Those fields that can't grow anything at all, side fields, and barren land are all planted by the common people! "

"The good things are all taken by these nobles, and all the bad things are given to the common people, and many of these nobles don't need to pay taxes!"

"This leads to the fact that those with high output do not pay taxes, and those with low output have to pay taxes instead. If the tax does not come up, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. This leads to the rebellion of the people all over the world. In the long run, it can only be a downturn. !"

"It's different in Yanyun. Every piece of land in Yanyun is publicly owned and distributed to the common people on an average basis. There is no unfair distribution of good and poor land. Moreover, every farmer, whether noble or ordinary, must Taxes are treated equally."

"In this way, every piece of Yanyun's tax land has been utilized, and there is such a high amount!"

As soon as these words came out, the meaning was already obvious.

In the Song Dynasty, too many nobles occupied the fields. They did not pay taxes, evaded taxes, and occupied good resources.

It's no wonder this tax can come up.

This……

The courtiers and others present were all talking.

In the final analysis, it was some nobles who were at fault, and Wu Zhi looked at these people.

They lowered their heads one after another, not daring to meet Wu Zhi's eyes.

What Wu Zhi said offended a group of people.

But he is not afraid.

He is the whole group of people.

These people took advantage of their power to occupy too many good resources, enriched themselves, and impoverished Da Song.

Who has few selfishness.

But so many people gather to want Da Song to continue to develop, that is nonsense.

So these must be rectified.

Even Wang Wei, Minister of the Household Department, lowered his head, not daring to meet Wu Zhi's eyes.

In the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, not many people dare to speak at the moment.

They were afraid of Wu Zhi's questioning.

I feel a little guilty.

Song Huizong nodded: "Wu Aiqing is right. This is a problem in the Great Song Dynasty, and it is impossible to increase the tax output!"

Wu Zhi said: "Therefore, the implementation of the new law is imperative, and only in this way can the situation in the Song Dynasty be completely reformed!"

Song Huizong nodded: "Wu Aiqing is right!"

At this moment, Guo Feiming couldn't bear it any longer: "Your Majesty, Yan Yun's situation is unclear now, so we can't listen to what Minister Wu has to say!"

Wu Zhi smiled and said: "Your Majesty, whether it is true or not, you can go all the way to the north to have a look. It will be clear at a glance! Your Majesty can also go out and relax!"

Hearing that he could go out to play, Song Huizong immediately smiled and said: "What Wu Aiqing said is reasonable, I have decided to go north to inspect the people's sentiments!"

Song Huizong was extremely excited that he could go out to play.

Guo Feiming said: "Your Majesty, if you go out, this Bianjing..."

Song Huizong: "Master Guo, you don't know what's going on with Yanyun, so I'll go north to have a look in person, so as to reveal the real situation of Yanyun to the ministers, isn't it just right?"

Guo Feiming: "Just let other people handle such trivial matters!"

Little things?

Song Huizong can go out to play, is this a trivial matter?
Song Huizong frowned: "Master Guo, this is a matter related to the world. I want to go and see it for myself, so please stop trying to persuade me! It's time for me to go out and inspect the people's sentiments!"

make a sightseeing tour.

Song Huizong's favorite.

There is also the difference between the north and the south, and the cultural sceneries are different, which is more conducive to him finding inspiration in art.

Besides, staying in this palace all day is boring enough.

Moreover, Song Huizong suddenly thought of a good idea.

Song Huizong: "That's right! I never thought that Yanyun would have such a development. Since I want to go out, I am determined to let all civil and military officials travel with me. I will go to the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun to see the appearance of the military minister after the reform. We can enjoy the scenery of Beimo together.”

Hearing this, Wen and Wu of the Manchu Dynasty trembled all over.

Your Majesty is not only going to Yanyun Sixteen States, but also taking them with him?

Absolutely not!
Since ancient times, emperors have visited privately in micro-services.

In addition to fearing that someone would organize an assassin to murder the emperor and kill him, it was also for the sake of the situation that the court could not be left alone for a day.

If there is no emperor in the court, the minds of the officials will be unstable and problems will arise.

Maybe the emperor will never come back after leaving.

But now, this Song Huizong is not visiting privately in a micro-service, but is going to bring the officials together.

Many people are unwilling.

Why?

Because where is Yanyun?That was Wu Zhi's fiefdom.

It's all under his influence.

Going there is fraught with too many risks.

In addition, after a long journey, some veterans are old, and after tossing back and forth, they may die of illness on the way.

And Wang Fu and others, if they really went to Wu Zhi's territory, wouldn't they have their wealth and lives controlled by Wu Zhi?
How dare he go?

What if Wu Zhi tried to torment them?Then really let it be slaughtered.

Many courtiers were nervous and unwilling to go.

At this moment, Prince Zhao Heng couldn't help but come out and speak: "Father, take the officials to Yanyun. The road is bumpy and tiring, and the journey is far away. You will encounter many bandits. If your father's itinerary is revealed, My son is worried that there will be assassins harming the father, so the father can't leave Bianjing easily, otherwise there will be danger, and it will shake the Song Dynasty!"
