Chapter 164 Blood-sucking insects, who said that?

"What do you mean? Rotten to the root?"

Chu Feng frowned sullenly, but he was thinking in his heart how to implement some policies against these people, otherwise half of the poll tax would be taken away by these people.

Isn't it raising these blood-sucking worms in the national interest?

Yan Xiang lowered his head, not knowing how to respond.

Lu Su next to him put down his pen and ink, clasped his fists and said, "My lord, the counties in Yangzhou are newly attached to you, and they have been war-torn for a long time. If we really want to investigate thoroughly this time,

Those people have ten thousand ways to make the lord retreat in spite of difficulties! "

"Don't you just let it go?"

"From ancient times to the present, successive emperors have been unable to do anything about it. These people have regarded these people's taxes as their family's. The strict control will definitely inspire these people to resist."

Lu Su shook his head, indicating that Chu Feng couldn't care about it.

It's better to turn a blind eye to this thing.

In particular, Chu Feng is still only a separatist force now, if he forcibly controls it, it will only make the situation more rigid, and even cause the later aristocratic families not to cling to him.

"Damn it, what a bunch of moths."

Chu Feng cursed and cursed, and the exploitation never stopped.

The corners of Lu Su and Yan Xiang's mouths twitched, Boss, your Yuan family seems to be the most blood-sucking, and even controlled many people's careers to a certain extent.

Chu Feng looked at the taxed land again, and couldn't help frowning: "What's going on? The taxed land is actually the same as the statistics in the ancient books I read? Is it the amount from decades ago?"

"Isn't the land cultivated in these decades not counted?"

It doesn't matter if the oral Fu is tricky, but his mother's field tax is also tricky. Jiangnan is in a stage of rapid development. In a few decades, the number of acres can increase by at least [-]%.

In other words, [-]% of the land is not taxed?

In other words, if the [-]% of the land was reclaimed by the common people, then their land tax should not be missed, but it will be handed over to the family and officials, not to themselves.

"This..." Yan Xiang bowed his head.

The eyes gave Lu Su a look, indicating to let him save himself, after all, he can't do anything about it, the influence of the local family is here.

The big man is so powerful, but Emperor Ling is reduced to selling his officials for money. It can be seen that these people are probably even more exploitative of the court.

In the end, the emperor had no money, and the people were exploited, all of which were used to raise these blood-sucking worms.

"My lord, the land tax that has been reclaimed in the past few decades has been pocketed by some people. It's not that they haven't been confiscated, and even the common people have paid more!"

Lu Su said in a deep voice,

His words are still terrible,

Even Yan Xiang gave him a surprised look, as if he was saying Lu Su, your buttocks are crooked, and you are also from an aristocratic family.

"Zijing, is there a way to teach me?"

Chu Feng looked at Lu Su and lamented in his heart. If Lu Su hadn't been upright, no one would have said anything more from his point of view.

A family of iron, a dynasty of flowing water.

Taking the money from the government to embezzle and tax, and this is only a part, these people will also annex land and let the people cultivate it for them,

In this way, they are the biggest winners.

In their eyes, the imperial court is a fart!It's really embarrassing!

"I can't teach it, and I can't teach it!"

Lu Su shook his head and sighed in his heart.

He could even imagine that if Chu Feng used thunderous means to crack down, what he would face would be rebellion from various families and resistance from outside families.

And his Yuan family name will be useless.

"My lord, there are few tenant farmers in the fields of scholars, and the poor have no land to stand on. Instead, there are more corvees. This is not the fault of the lord, but the malpractice of the world."

Lu Su added another sentence.

He is a small family of the Lu family, and his treatment of Zhuangshang Dingcha is not exploitation, but help and generosity, but he has seen too much exploitation.

Chu Feng frowned, he knew what Lu Su was afraid of.

In other words, it is a place that I can't touch.

There are constraints in any era. If you want to break such constraints, you must have absolute strength and make long-term efforts to succeed.

"Zijing, I have a method, which may change this disadvantage." Chu Feng said in a deep voice.

"My lord, why don't you tell me something." Lu Su raised his eyebrows.

"The small tax leads the aristocratic family to hide away and seek personal gain. The people are afraid of the tax. It is better to abolish the small tax, measure the land, and spread the small tax evenly to all the fields,"

"Those with more land pay more, those with little land pay less, and those without land don't pay. Firstly, the pressure on the people to pay taxes will be reduced, so that they will not have to conceal the information, and more generations will be passed on."

"Secondly, reduce mergers, let aristocratic families pay more taxes, and control their corruption and taxation." After Chu Feng finished speaking, he looked at Lu Su and said.

There is nothing wrong with this policy,

Stabilize national income, suppress local tycoons, and also curb mergers and reduce corruption. You can achieve multiple things at one stroke, but you will be opposed by the aristocratic family.

Hearing this, Lu Su fell into deep thought.

I saw his eyes sometimes questioning, sometimes dignified, and sometimes excited.

As for Yan Xiang, his eyes were astonished.

He is a wise man, and this policy hits the nail on the head.

It is a good solution to the problem of hidden households, increases taxation, and can stimulate people to pass on their families, but...

At this moment, Lu Su was short of breath, clasped his fists and shouted: "My lord, if this strategy works, it will benefit thousands of years."

"So, you also think it's feasible?"

"No, but just a few words, you can know the cleverness of this strategy." Lu Su waved his hand, but highly complimented,

He is even more emotional, it seems that his boss has long wanted to engage in these aristocratic families, otherwise such policies, how can they be imagined out of thin air?

"My lord, now that the feudal lords are separatist, your foothold is unstable. Offending the family at this moment is tantamount to cutting off your own arms. At that time, the world's family will compete with you, and it is absolutely impossible."

Lu Su added.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, the family ruled the world,

No one can fight against the aristocratic family, let alone the Yuan family, even the emperor does not have this ability, after all, this class controls the big man.

Unless Chu Feng has enough strength and is replaced by enough talents, no one can shake the foundation of the aristocratic family.

Hearing Lu Su's words, Yan Xiang heaved a sigh of relief. If Chu Feng really wanted to implement such a policy, Yangzhou might not even need Cao Cao to invade.

Will be self-defeating.

And Chu Feng also guessed it, and he didn't report any hope. After all, if he offends the aristocratic family without enough talent reserves, he will definitely die.

Even under Kangxi and Yongzheng, they had many difficulties in implementing this policy, and it took a long time. This kind of policy cannot be completed in one generation.

"Now that the finances are tight, is it okay to kill chickens and monkeys?"

Chu Feng is helpless, there are only a few counties under his rule, and the finances are so bad, even if he can't kill these aristocratic families, he still has to beat them.

"Yes!" Lu Su nodded.

"It's still necessary to beat it!"

"Send someone to investigate, and tell me about all the aristocratic families in Yangzhou, and let them send people to Shouchun. Since killing chickens to scare monkeys, it can't just be beaten, and something must be done."

Chu Feng's voice was deep and low,

"My lord, do you want to?" Yan Xiang asked,

"At that time, you will know that if you are too greedy to chew, you will have to spit out something!" Chu Feng said darkly. In short, he was extremely dissatisfied with these taxes.

Chapter 165 Selling Officials 【Subscription】

====================================

Chapter 165 Selling Officials 【Subscription】

With Lu Su and Yan Xiang retreating,

Chu Feng picked up the tall pile of documents again and began to approve them. However, after what happened just now, he felt a little irritable. He corrected two documents and threw them aside.

"Zhongkang, what would happen to you if this group of aristocratic families took away the riches of the people and used my Shouchun's benefits for their own use?" Chu Feng asked, looking at the strong man like an iron tower behind him.

"My lord, the general doesn't know these twists and turns, but the general knows that if someone wants to take my things, then beat him hard, or deter these people from doing so!"

"When the yellow scarf bandits came to our Xujiazhuang to make trouble, I led my relatives to fight until the arrows in the village were exhausted. At the end, I pulled out the ox's tail and walked a hundred steps angrily.

Those yellow turban thieves fled in fright! "Xu Chu said with a chuckle.

"Haha, you are right, you are much better than those civil servants!"

Chu Feng laughed heartily, and patted Xu Chu's shoulder. He suddenly felt that communicating with these generals was much more comfortable, and at least there was less intrigue.

"My lord, let me just say it casually, governing the country is not defending the enemy, it cannot be compared!"

Xu Chu scratched his head, a little embarrassed.

"It's the same, but Lu Su is right. Now my foundation is not stable. If I blindly suppress it, more people will die, and more families will compete with me."

With his hands behind his back, Chu Feng's eyes were clear and deep. He was wondering if there was any good strategy to exploit the aristocratic family and improve his own ability. Could it be that he could learn from Emperor Ling and sell his rank?

Selling official titles?It seems that it is not impossible!

Thinking of this, Chu Feng strode back to his seat and picked up a pen to write. Lingdi is selling directly, and selling some big officials and nobles, so can he change his thinking?

Like paying for a pre-order?

And promised that the money is temporarily deposited. If the official position is removed, the money will be returned to them?

This is indeed good. Anyway, the grassroots areas are controlled by aristocratic families from all over the world. Instead of giving them control for no reason, it is better to charge some fees, and when you recover, you will find a way to kill them.

He definitely wants to rectify the aristocratic family. The relationship between the superior and the aristocratic family is both a cooperative relationship and a competitive relationship. The source of the aristocratic family's interests is almost entirely based on exploiting the people and withholding taxes.

If the family is not governed, even if he has a chance to rule the world, the family will still overthrow the dynasty in a hundred years or hundreds of years.

But rectifying this thing is as difficult as climbing the sky. Even if the future generations are in power, they will still be "family", just change the name!

After thinking about it, he put the idea of ​​​​rectifying these moths in the bottom of his heart, and looked at the system. There is still a set of rewards for engraved coins that have not been withdrawn.

Seeing this, Chu Feng pondered a little.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, the five baht coin was on the verge of collapse. Many vassals traded with barter, or traded with gold. For the time being, there is no better coin with high credibility to replace it.

If you promote the new currency yourself, although inflation can be controlled, how to make the people trustworthy, the aristocratic family recognize it, and the princes accept it are particularly important.

However, although this problem cannot be solved for the time being, the launch of new coins will definitely be launched, and the market must be controlled, otherwise inflation will cause barter to continue for nearly a hundred years.

This must be prepared in advance!

I went shopping in the system again, and there is almost nothing left, but the cotton given before should be about to mature, and it is estimated that it will be more than a month away.

This winter, we can get a lot of cotton-padded clothes, which are beneficial to the country and the people in Guda.Even until the end of the last century, cotton-padded clothes were still the most mainstream.

As for his second season of potatoes, it should be time to harvest. He specially arranges people to be responsible for sowing and harvesting.

In the next few years, the production of potatoes should occupy a high proportion. Although it is not appropriate to be a staple food, potatoes can fight hunger and make it easy for the common people to eat.

Take a breath, everything is going in a good direction.

But he was a little anxious in Wu County because he found out that the dog system treats all the women it accepts as its own and doesn't give rewards.

Playing with concubines should come first!
