Daqin started with offering immortal medicine

And Feng Quji refuted completely without words, and had to admit: "Prime Minister Zhong is good at calculation."

"Thank you, Prime Minister Feng, for your compliment." Li Yang smiled, and then said: "However, what Feng Xiang said before is actually very reasonable, the annual salary expenditure is indeed too huge, if it is implemented according to the current military annual salary, it will be unavoidable. I'm sorry for the active soldiers in the army. After all, they have been serving the country, and most of those who have military merits and titles and land in the past have already enjoyed the peaceful days brought by our Great Qin. Therefore, this According to the facts, there are two types of annual salary."

"Oh? There are two types?"

Suddenly, everyone became suspicious.

Ying Zheng was also very curious, because this matter had not been discussed before.

So he hurriedly asked, "Which two are there?"

Li Yangdao: "One is the annual salary for serving, which is the current set of annual salary based on military merit and rank. The other is the annual salary for retirement, which means that they are no longer serving in the military and political system of Daqin, so Their annual salaries are naturally lower than those of the same titles in service, so that it is more reasonable for everyone. Otherwise, the same titles, regardless of whether they are in office or not, all receive the same annual salary, then who would want to be in the army? China or continue to do things in the government? There will inevitably be a psychological imbalance."

Everyone nodded their heads one after another. It is indeed more reasonable to divide the annual salary into two types: on-the-job and retired.

If there are time travelers around at this time, they will know that this is the retirement salary system for the personnel in the system of later generations!

Chapter 182 Restructuring (Revised)

The dual-track annual salary system for serving and retired military honors is really eye-catching. It not only reflects fairness to everyone, but also is very beneficial to the court. Li Si immediately came out and said: "The dual-track annual salary system for the Prime Minister is really a good strategy." Also, the minister seconded."

Everyone looked at each other, and immediately said in unison: "The ministers also seconded the proposal."

The emperor was also pleasantly surprised by Li Yang's dual-track salary system.

This strategy is not only fair, but also can encourage everyone to serve Daqin for a long time, because only with long-term service can the annual salary be more generous. But the life of those who continue to serve Daqin.

Thinking of this, Yingzheng Shengxin was overjoyed, and praised: "This policy is indeed a good one, Prime Minister Feng, you are responsible for formulating the annual salary standard of the dual-track annual salary system!"

"Here!" Feng Quji immediately took orders.

However, then he pondered for a while, and then asked: "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister of China has implemented the strategy of replacing military industrial fields with annual salaries throughout the country. Although it is fair to return the military industrial fields that were sealed off in the past to the court, there are still omissions. a place."

"Oh? Where did you miss it?"

Ying Zheng was puzzled.

Li Yang also looked at Feng Quji curiously.

Feng Quji said: "It's just forgetting that those of us who are still in the military and political system of the imperial court, such as ministers, such as the Prime Minister himself, have all been granted the fiefdoms of His Majesty, and usually receive annual salaries. Of course, The ministers can return the previously conferred land to the imperial court for free, but there are not a few ministers and generals who work in the imperial court system like ministers and have been granted land due to meritorious service. If the land is compensated by annual salary, wouldn’t it be necessary to take double annual salary? But if you don’t give double annual salary, it will make some officials and officials chill. So, please think again, Your Majesty!”

As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded, saying that Feng Quji's suggestion was right.

Yes, this is related to the vital interests of every courtier.

It is fair for those who are no longer in the imperial court system to return the former military industrial fields to the imperial court, but it is not fair for those who are still in the imperial court system.

While I am working for the imperial court, I already have an annual salary every year. If I don’t give an extra annual salary, the land will be taken back to the imperial court. Wouldn’t it be a big loss for everyone?

Seeing the enthusiastic response from the crowd, Feng Quji felt a little proud. He had been forced by Ying Zheng to be a bad guy and offend people throughout the early dynasty.

At this time, everyone looked at Ying Zheng, wanting to hear what kind of compensation conditions the emperor could give everyone.

Ying Zheng nodded slightly when he heard this. This is indeed a problem.

Ying Zheng knew in his heart that this matter should be treated differently from other people who are no longer in the court system, because it involves officials at all levels of the court, as well as generals in the army, so it is natural to treat it in a more gentle way.

However, this is a matter of human affection, so he did not answer immediately, but intends to give Li Yang this opportunity to be a good person. How should things be handled?"

Li Yang thought for a while, and said: "What Feng Xiang mentioned is indeed something that I missed, but I think that since those who are still in the court system have already received their own salary, there is no need to receive another one. Therefore, it can be treated differently. For example, the land obtained by previous meritorious service is retained, but the additional land acquired by annexation must be returned to the imperial court."

Ying Zheng nodded and felt that it was feasible, so he turned to ask everyone: "What do you think?"

Everyone nodded. It was good for them to be able to keep their previous fiefdoms. After all, the emperor is now going to deal with the land annexation issue, so no one dares to count on the land acquired through annexation, and even extravagantly asks for compensation from the court, so they all said : "I have no objection!"

"Okay, it's better for me, Daqin minister, to be sensible."

Ying Zheng praised all the officials, and then said: "Li Yang, then do as you say!"

"Here!" Li Yang nodded.

In fact, Li Yang is not completely giving in to the gentry, but is advancing by retreating.

Because if you want to restore the old system of land smoothly, you must stabilize the court internally, so that the policy of restoring the old system of land can be implemented.

Why does Daqin want to restore the old system of land now?

The reason is nothing more than four words: land annexation!

The real fiefdoms given by the emperor to these old nobles and ministers in the court will not affect the self-cultivated land of the people in the world at all.In other words, the land originally obtained by these ministers and ministers is actually not much, and most of them are land acquired through mergers.

As long as the annexed land can be taken back to the imperial court and their original fiefs are left, there is nothing wrong with it at all.

Moreover, as long as the old land system is successfully restored, land redistribution is completed, and buying and selling are eliminated.Then, all the land in the world is state-owned, which means that even if these ministers and old gentry have a lot of fiefs, they are still state-owned, but the only difference is that you have more land to grow food than ordinary people , but it is not your private property, after you die of old age, these lands will still need to be returned to the imperial court.

But those upstarts are different. Most of the upstarts in Daqin were formerly from the old Qin.In normal times, they also cultivated the land, but in wartime, they put down their hoes to fight.Because of the great cause of reunification, he has made great achievements, has a title, and has been allocated land.

These people, after the reunification, Qin Shihuang heavy corvee, and because they have titles, do not need corvee, they can farm at home with peace of mind, and have surplus food, so they slowly annexed the land of the people of the other six countries with the surplus food, so after more than ten years , Slowly sit up and become an upstart.

To put it bluntly, the upstarts of the Qin Dynasty are definitely not the same as the nobles.

Only these bigwigs in the court can be regarded as gentry.Such as the Meng family, such as Wang Li's Wang family, such as the Feng family, these ministers and ministers in the court.

Now, treat these gentry differently, retain the fiefdoms they acquired for generations, and only take back the land they annexed, stabilize these gentry, and other upstarts, can they still shake the sky?

The gentry do not rebel, the active sergeants do not rebel, and with the support of nearly 2000 million civilians, the hundreds of thousands of upstarts who are slowly growing up, do they dare to rebel?

What's more, they have no reason to oppose it, because the imperial court will give them an annual salary to replace the military field in the future.

Therefore, in Li Yang's view, the land is restored to the old system, and the overall situation is settled!

At this time, Ying Zheng also knew that the overall situation of the land reform was over, so he waved to Liu Xi.

Liu Xi immediately stepped out from beside Yingzheng, came to the front of the hall with the imperial edict in his hand, and declared loudly: "Your Majesty has a decree to plan for the great Qin country and society. Starting today, the Great Qin will carry out a new policy of reform in an all-round way, abolish temples and offices, reform Ministry. Added two courts, the official system of nine ranks, and the title of title inherited the old system."

"Set up the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Education, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Set up the State Council, which also manages various ministries. Set up the Supervisory Council to supervise all officials. The Development and Reform Agency is retained and attached to the State Council."

"The original Shangqing Guard Lieutenant, Li Xin, was promoted to the Minister of the Ministry of War, a first-rank official, and took charge of the Ministry of War. The original Jiuqing ruled Li Neishi Ji Kai, and was promoted to the Minister of the Household Department, a first-rank official, to be in charge of the Ministry of Households. The original Jiuqing will be He Zhang of the Shaofu , was promoted to Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, the first rank of official, and took charge of the Ministry of Industry. Meng Yi, the former Jiuqing Tingwei, was promoted to the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, the first rank of official, and took charge of the Ministry of Punishment. Xu Fu of the Qing Ministry of Foreign Affairs was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a first-rank official, and took charge of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The original Jiuqing..."

"The right minister, Feng Quji, was named Minister of State, and was in charge of the post of Vice President of the State Council; the Left Prime Minister, Li Si, was named State Affairs Minister, and was in charge of the post of Vice President of the State Council; The position of dean; Li Yang, the prime minister of the Central Committee, was named Minister of State, and took charge of the post of dean of the State Council, commanding the State Council and all the ministries under its jurisdiction!"

As soon as the edict was announced, the entire hall was in an uproar...
