Zhenwu Tianxia: Summon Yuwen Chengdu at the beginning

Dali civil servants are selected through imperial examinations, but Dali does not have martial arts exams. Military officers are selected through recommendation, that is, the nobility recommendation system, which is why the guards in various parts of the five-army governor's mansion are dominated by nobility.

The establishment of Yanwu Pavilion is undoubtedly to break this rule.

For the Xungui Group, this is equivalent to cutting off their roots.

Thinking of this, Qin Wei looked at the military officers of the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion, and sure enough, the faces of these guys were extremely ugly.

After Ji Yuanchen's words fell, the hall fell into a sudden silence.

Qin Wei tapped his fingers on the table, his face expressionless.

He had already thought about this matter.

He wants to promote the Yanwu Pavilion system, the purpose is to select geniuses from the people, so that the geniuses of the people will no longer be buried, so that they can serve the court.

This will certainly violate the interests of some people.

And he has a lot of things to reform, Yanwu Pavilion is just the simplest one, if he can't even do this, then the three-year development plan he formulated is bullshit.

"Do you have any objections from the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies?" Qin Wei asked.

All the military officers bowed their heads and remained silent.

They naturally have objections, but they dare not speak out.

Seeing them like this, Qin Wei didn't care, and said directly: "In the future, if you want to be an official, you can just pass the examinations of Yanwu Pavilion."

"If you can't even do this, then don't be ashamed of yourself in the army!"

Are there no talents among the nobles?

Naturally not.

In fact, martial arts practice has very strict requirements for inheritance, and it is difficult for ordinary small families to cultivate martial artists.

Talent is important, but resources are even more important.

Xungui's ability to control the capital of the five armies is not only due to their privileges, but also because they can cultivate many powerful warriors, and they are also warriors with military talents.

And now Qin Wei wants to give resources to those geniuses from the folk, because there are more folk geniuses.

"If you have any objections, you can tell me!" Qin Wei said in a flat tone.

There was silence in the warm pavilion, and no one spoke.

Seeing this, Qin Wei sneered in his heart.

Dali's nobles look powerful, but they are actually a bunch of paper tigers.

Don't look at them controlling the capital of the five armies, but in fact their strength is very weak.

After all, this world is a world of cultivation, unlike in previous lives and ancient times, having military power is a master.

Self-respect doesn't work in this world.

Just like Beiyuan City, the reason why Beiyuan City can be independent from Dali is not because they have a hundred thousand Skyhawk Army, but because they have a city lord Situ who is born in three realms.

"Since you have no objection, it's settled at this time."

"Zhuge correct me!" Qin Wei called out.

"The minister is here!" Zhuge Zhengwo stepped out and bowed in response.

"You are in charge of this matter, with the assistance of the Zhenwu Division and other government departments. I give you the right to act on the fly, so you can kill first and act later!" Qin Wei grinned.

Cut first and then play!

At the beginning, he relied on this to run wild in the capital, and now he gave this to Zhuge Zhengwo.

As soon as these words came out, the officials in the hall were suddenly as cold as cicadas.

Especially those nobles, their expressions were a little unnatural.

At this time, they suddenly remembered that Qin Wei was not a benevolent person.

When the Zhenwu Division was established, Qin Wei took over Cheng Guogong's mansion. Now that he is sitting on Huangwei, if anyone doesn't open his eyes, he will definitely be lighting a lantern in the latrine and looking for death.

"I obey the order!" Zhuge Zhengwo replied.

Qin Wei nodded, glanced at the notebook in his hand, and said, "The next thing is the tax reform."

As he spoke, he winked at Xiao Shunzi.

Xiao Shunzi understood immediately, and once again summoned a group of eunuchs to distribute booklets to the ministers.

When all the ministers got the brochure and read it, their faces changed, and even the old fellow Ji Yuanchen was a little stunned.

Dali's taxation system is still in the stage of head tax, that is, tax is collected on a head-by-head basis. Taxes are collected based on the number of people in a family. Taxes are generally based on food.

In addition, there are city taxes, tariffs, ship taxes, agricultural mulberry silk and so on.

Just like the Ming Dynasty in Chinese history, there is also a huge tax-free group in Dali.

Scholars with fame, warriors who have reached the fourth rank, noble families in the court and official families are all privileged groups, and they are all tax-exempt.

The key is that the problem of land merger also exists.

The Dali dynasty has been established for more than 300 years, and the problem of land annexation within the dynasty has actually reached a very serious level.

Back then, a single Wanfu Temple in Tianzhou could occupy millions of acres of fertile land, and other sects also owned more or less a lot of fertile land. This was one of the reasons why Emperor Li insisted on suppressing the sects of the world.

But just suppressing the world's sects is not enough, there are still many nobles, official families, martial arts families, etc., are wantonly annexing the land.

The only thing that makes Qin Wei feel lucky is that Dali's situation is much better than that of the late Ming Dynasty in China's history. The main reason is that the old emperor has already discovered this problem and has been solving it all the time.

Killing honorable nobles, exterminating noble families, reusing humble scholars, etc., although not thorough enough, it also suppressed the problem of land annexation in Dali.

But now that Qin Wei wanted to create a truly prosperous Dali, tax-free privileges and land annexation were the biggest gaps before him.

Therefore, he proposed a system of tax payment for each individual and the integration of gentry and gentry.

Collecting small silver into the land tax collection, abolishing the previous "poll tax", so the landless poor people got rid of the burden of small labor; the tax burden on the landlords increased, which can limit or ease the land annexation to a certain extent, while less land The burden on farmers is relatively lightened.

At the same time, the imperial court will also loosen the control on household registration, so that farmers and handicraftsmen can move freely and sell their labor power.It is conducive to mobilizing the production enthusiasm of farmers and other laborers and expanding the productivity of the whole Dali.

Moreover, after the land is divided into mu, the land is combined into one, and the land tax and the land tax are all taxed on the field, which simplifies the taxation and collection procedures.

In conjunction with the taxation of gentry and gentry, the tax-free privilege is completely abolished.

This will not only increase the financial revenue of the court, but also promote the population growth of Li.

With money, Qin Wei can do more things; with people, more talents can emerge, and Dali's strength will become stronger and stronger.

In this world of cultivation, ordinary people seem unimportant, they are not even qualified to rebel, but for a dynasty, the people are the foundation stone at the bottom, and how tall the court can build depends entirely on the people at the bottom. How many resources to provide.

"Do you have any objections?" Qin Wei asked again.

The ministers were silent.

This is more terrifying than promoting Yanwu Pavilion, they don't know what to say.

"Your Majesty, this matter should not be too urgent!" Ji Yuanchen, as the first assistant, saw that no one spoke, so he could only stand up bravely.

He wanted to persuade Qin Wei, but he didn't know how to persuade him.

There is no problem with these two systems proposed by Qin Wei. He knows that the implementation of these two systems is beneficial to the court, but the impact is too great.

This affects almost everyone in Dali, and pushes all privileged groups in Dali to the opposite side.

The interests of noble families, official families, sect forces, martial arts families, and even every official in the court will be damaged.

And once the conflict intensifies, the whole Dali will fall into turmoil.

Ji Yuanchen didn't know what kind of consequences these two policies would lead to after they were promulgated.

But Qin Wei's face darkened, and he said: "Wrong, not only will I not delay, but I will implement these two policies as soon as possible."

"The longer this matter drags on, the greater the turmoil will be."

He stood up and said solemnly: "My dear friends, stay in the front hall to rest tonight. In the early morning of tomorrow, the cabinet will immediately issue a document and send it to all states, prefectures, and counties, requiring government offices at all levels to reopen within three months. Measure all the fields."

"The Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies immediately issued a military order to the guarding troops in each state, requiring the guarding troops in various places to stand by and wait for them. Once they receive the order, they will immediately launch a thunder strike. Anyone who dares to start a riot will be killed."

"The Zhenwu Division and the Huangcheng Division supervise the world. Officials at all levels, whoever is passive and sabotage, will be implicated for three generations!"

What a joke, this kind of thing must not be delayed.

Once the time is prolonged, when those people react, they will definitely make trouble.

Qin Wei just didn't give them time, and finished the land measurement first. As long as the land measurement is completed, the basis for sharing the land into acres will be ready.

It is not easy to implement a policy in such a huge dynasty.

It is almost impossible for officials at all levels and countless officials to seriously follow orders.

But Qin Wei is not without support.

He has the Imperial City Division to monitor the world, and he has the Zhenwu Division to suppress the sect forces.He had just solved the slowdown, and a series of victories forged his emperor's power.

Now that the foreign troubles have been eliminated, he can fully deal with the internal problems of the dynasty.

"Whether Dali can take off depends on this time."

"Whoever dares to stop me is my enemy."

"I will let him know what it means to be angry with the emperor and lay down millions of corpses!"

Qin Wei said calmly.

When all the ministers heard the words, they were all terrified.

They already understood Qin Wei's determination.

Qin Wei looked at the pale-faced courtiers, and a stern look flashed in his eyes.

At this time, there must be no benevolence.

The vast majority of people are afraid of power and not afraid of morality.

He just wants to deter these courtiers in front of him with the power of the emperor. If he can't deter these courtiers, how can he deter so many privileged groups in the world.

Chapter 225 Reform follow-up

All the important court officials were forced by Qin Wei to stay overnight in the front hall of the imperial city. The next morning, the governor's office of the five armies and the six ministers left the imperial city with the imperial decree and official documents of the cabinet in their hands.

Then there was a lot of nonsense.

Starting from the six yamen, within an hour, all kinds of news spread throughout the entire capital, and spread towards all directions of the capital at an unbelievable speed.

However, compared with the dissemination of news, the transmission of official documents by the imperial court was faster. Under Qin Wei's will, all post stations distributed official documents to all states, prefectures and counties at a speed of eight hundred miles.

In just five days, the official document on the promotion of Yanwu Pavilion and taxation reform was delivered to all the prefectures and counties in Dali.

In the face of the sudden official document, the government offices and county government offices in various places were in a panic again.

The prefects and county magistrates looked at the official documents, sweating profusely.

It's okay to say that the promotion of Yanwu Pavilion, if Chaotang asks them to do it, they just do it.

However, this tax reform has a great impact, and they don't know how much trouble it will cause once it is implemented.

However, Qin Wei's decree requires that all the prefectures and counties in the country should measure all the world within three months, that is to say, they only have three months. Sabotage, that is to punish the three clans.

"Why is this, Your Majesty?"

"Does Your Majesty want to force against the people of the world?"

The first thought of many officials when they saw the official document was that the emperor Qin Wei was crazy.

However, the crazier things had just begun. While the prefects and county magistrates were still hesitating, waist cards were delivered to them one after another.

The waist card of the Imperial City Division!

This means that the Secretary of the Imperial City is already in place, and if he dares to violate the law, he will report it to His Majesty the Emperor.

Qin Wei is well aware of the local government's passive sabotage routine, and knows that the officials of the imperial court are the biggest obstacles to tax reform, because all officials are tax-exempt and privileged, and if Qin Wei wants to carry out tax reform, he must first subdue these officials.

The waist badge of Huangcheng Division is a whip, which drives the officials away.

Holding the badge of the Imperial City Division, prefects and county magistrates from all over the country finally had to start measuring the land.

However, the day after the official document was issued, Qin Wei came to the Imperial College.

Accompanied by Confucian Master Yan Zhen, Confucian Young Master Wang Shouren, and Guozijian Jijiu Fu Chengyi.

After everyone saw the ceremony, Qin Wei toured Dali Guozijian accompanied by the three of them.
