Chapter 144: Mountains and Rivers

You Hongyin hesitated between a single whip and a piece of cake.

The so-called one-whip method means combining taxes and servitude, apportioning land tax, corvee, and miscellaneous labor among the acres of fields, that is, the servitude is assigned to the land, the land is counted as Ding, mu is expropriated, and silver is expropriated.It means that land tax and poll tax are no longer based on poll tax, but land tax. Then, the poll tax on the people will be reduced immediately, especially for those people who do not have land, the tax will be reduced a lot a lot of.Of course, those landlords who own a large amount of land will have to pay more taxes, and their interests will indeed be greatly touched.

However, the method of distributing Ding Ding Mu is more intense than a single whip. To be precise, the method of distributing Ding Ding Mu is based on the method of one whip.Divide the small tax into the land tax equally, collect unified land small silver, and completely solve the dual-track taxation form of small land and land collection.That is, the poll tax was completely abolished, and only land tax was collected.

As for the modern public ownership of land that is more conducive to agricultural development, it is not realistic under such a ruling situation.

What You Hongyin hesitated was whether to proceed step by step, or to complete it in one step.After the gradual implementation of the one whip method, it may be very difficult to reform the system during his reign, and the turbulent and frequent replacement system is not good for the people at the bottom.

The adoption of the method of distributing the land into the mu is indeed a one-step achievement. It completely abolished the poll tax, reduced the burden of corvee, and completely liberated the labor force locked in the place of birth.But at the same time, this method has a greater impact on the interests of the class and the rich, and it is very difficult to implement it.

In the end, You Hongyin still decided to adopt the method of distributing the income to the mu. Now that he is in the prime of his life and the court has the highest prestige, many capable officials under his command have also been promoted, and the military system has been completely changed. The corvee burden of ordinary people In terms of military service, they have completely broken free. If other aspects, such as forced labor and miscellaneous labor, are slowed down, the lives of the people at the bottom will be completely different.

Difficult, it must be difficult, but you can't stop doing it just because it is difficult.You Hongyin believes that if he really wants to do something, the chance of failure is very small.

As for the executor, You Hongyin finally chose Wei Qian.

Wei Qian has become more familiar with handling political affairs in recent years, but the power of the cabinet has been dispersed, and his wish of being a powerful minister has never been realized.

It is true that civil servants are good at power, but the starting point of good power comes from good name.Therefore, You Hongyin lured him with his name, and drew a big cake for this old official. After all, he still took the bait, and he willingly took the bait.

As smart as Wei Qian, he naturally knows how difficult this reform is, how complicated it is to implement, how much effort it will take to maintain and constantly adjust, and how many people will be hated if you take the lead in doing this.

But he also understands that to succeed in this matter, he, Wei Qian, is the most capable minister in the century since the founding of the Huang Kingdom!Not like a prime minister, but better than a prime minister.Yes, his biggest goal is actually to abolish the cabinet system, re-introduce the prime minister system, and then become a prime minister with less than one person and more than ten thousand people, but it is a pity that he was wrong at the beginning.But now that he is the Chief Assistant, and he accomplishes this thing, he will definitely leave a very strong mark in history even if he is not a prime minister.

To put it bluntly, after a long, long time, maybe the Huang Kingdom is destroyed at that time, and the new dynasty will choose to use this tax collection system, and then pass it on for thousands of years.

You Hongyin naturally gave Wei Qian enough support, and Lord Shoufu threw away the daily affairs of the cabinet, and with the equally excited officials and household ministers, he began to formulate detailed new tax laws day and night. After a long period of compilation, discuss one by one at the court meeting, gradually modify it to perfection, and then promote it to the world and begin to implement it.

After the promotion, You Hongyin specially recruited personnel from the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Officials, and Yushitai to set up a team, and handed it over to Wei Qian to inspect the world, promote, monitor and give feedback on the implementation of the new law in various places. The ever more powerful Zhanyin Chamber of Commerce and Zhanying have also been reporting and feedbacking the situation in various places.

Naturally, there are always people who take advantage of loopholes, obey others, and bribe others to make troubles, but they work together, and these people are often completely dealt with before they admire their wit. The low-level officials who did not act took the opportunity to deal with some corrupt officials who had already obtained criminal evidence but had no chance to deal with it.

And Huangguo has really gradually emerged from the quagmire of decline, decadence, decay and chaos, and started the road to revival.

"It seems that your former country was also governed very well." Even if You Hongyin ascended the throne, Yang Yizhan still didn't appear much.

But You Hongyin understood that although he didn't talk much, he was always paying attention to the outside world.

"Under the circumstances of trying to grasp the general trend, slowly pruning the branches and leaves of this big tree of the country can always take good care of it." You Hongyin said.

It is now the summer of ZTE’s 22nd year, and You Hongyin is over 40 years old. As usual, he can’t stand the scorching summer temperature, so he lives in a summer resort. It is surrounded by water and is very cool, and some basic work can be left to his son. Practicing hands has greatly reduced the workload, and it can be regarded as a vacation for myself.

And at this moment, he was lying in the water pavilion admiring the moon.

"I remember that you seem to have been sorting out some national policies in the past few years, but you are going to wait until the time is right before implementing them." Yang Yizhan said.

In fact, he was very shocked by You Hongyin's several national policies, such as road construction, sea ban, military academy, reorganization of salt administration, popularization of education, increase of imperial examination subjects, etc., all of which are closely related to each other. The thread into the knot can not only strengthen the country's strength, but also expand the territory. It will definitely allow the Huang Kingdom to embark on another path of complete prosperity, achieve eternal dominance, and not lose to any emperor.

Yang Yizhan is looking forward to it very much. Although he also understands how difficult it is to ascend the throne and how difficult it is to adjust and balance the court situation, his nature likes such big moves of reform and strengthening the country. It has not changed for so many years.

"Governing a big country is like cooking a small fish." You Hongyin threw out a sentence: "Although this sentence is not completely correct, it does say what a ruler needs most, and that is patience." He looked at the moon, Slowly explained to Yang Yizhan: "If an empire does not move, it will fall into a deadlock, and slowly, it will rot and disappear like a dead leaf falling into the soil. Therefore, it must continue to develop when the national strength can support it, not Stop, stay in the so-called dream of a strong country, and wait for the torrent behind you to submerge yourself."

"so?"

"So these things can't be completed in a short time, and it's best not to squeeze them all in a short period of time. These policies are slowly changing the way of life of people across the country, and they need to be implemented step by step. To change everyone's thinking, it will be perfectly implemented in the end, instead of being forced to go on, once I die, it will become nothing." You Hongyin said.

"You mean, these national policies will be reserved for the emperor, let him implement them?" Yang Yizhan asked doubtfully.

The prince that Yang Yizhan was talking about was naturally the prince, but the eldest prince, Yang Zhi, was better than the prince, because he was the only prince in the harem.He was pressured to study by his unscrupulous father since he was a child, and he had no childhood at all. After he was 12 years old and listened to the court for two years, his father would occasionally be lazy and leave the memorial to him for approval. Now the young man is completely mature. It's not like a young man who was left by You Hongyin to watch the house in the palace, dealing with the cabinet and those old foxes in Liubu alone.

"Naturally, it is not just for Xiaobao to complete so many things by himself, he will be exhausted. These policies of governing the country need to be continuously implemented by generations of emperors of the Yang family. At the same time, as time changes, some policies also need to be constantly changed. .In this way, the vitality of the empire can be continuously maintained, instead of turning into a pool of stagnant water without waves and waves, which is completely rotten." You Hongyin said.

Yang Yizhan smiled wryly: "I don't know if it's luck or misfortune for the emperor to have you, father."

"It depends on what he thinks. He is the only son. It is true that he has saved the brotherly dispute, but he has also brought double danger to himself. At the same time, the responsibility of the throne has become an inescapable shackle. If What he yearns for is not power in the world, so he will naturally suffer. But I believe that among the children who grew up in the palace, there are only a few who don't like power."

Yang Yizhan said: "Then why do you regard the throne as a beast and train the emperor so eagerly, because you want to abdicate as soon as possible."

You Hongyin said: "For those who only have power in their hearts, the emperor is naturally the best position in the world, but for those who have a heavy sense of responsibility, the throne represents endless memorials, which consumes a lot of energy. Trembling thinking and so on."

"And you are the kind of person with a great sense of responsibility." Yang Yizhan helped him complete it.

"No, I'm an exception. It's just that I'm tired of being an emperor and don't really want to be an emperor. Those who are bothersome and tired will die."

Yang Yizhan was speechless and disappeared, not wanting to hear this person continue.

The tulle of the water pavilion was lifted, and Xiao Yinzi walked in. His martial arts had already reached the peak, and he did not wear eunuch clothes outside. He was dressed in green clothes like a green pine. He stayed in his twenties, but it was You Hongyin. No matter how well maintained the emperor was in his 40s, there was a trace of age after all.

"The night wind is dew heavy, don't be greedy for coolness, get some rest early." Xiao Yinzi brought a bowl of soothing soup.

You Hongyin was recently dealing with the plague relief in the Guangdong and Guangxi areas. He said it was a vacation and the eldest prince supervised the country, but in fact some important court affairs were still sent here, so he couldn't sleep well.

"Don't drink, it's very bitter." You Hongyin refused: "Go to bed early today."

He got up and walked towards the bedroom, but he seemed to have remembered something, and said to Xiao Yinzi: "Help me put away those things I wrote."

"You mean the 'Eternal One Emperor Study Guide' you wrote?" Xiao Yinzi smiled slightly: "I don't know if the emperor's face is thick enough, don't worry, I will keep them properly for you."

"That's good, this is the first gift I will give Xiaobao when he ascends the throne in the future."

Before the history class of later generations.

"I heard that CCTV is going to shoot "The Prosperous Age of Zhongxing." A group of young girls got together to gossip.

"Didn't you already film "Ruizong"? Ah, I, Yang Zhan, don't want it. I really want to be Queen Xie."

"Please, where is Yang Zhanshuai? It's obviously Ruizong who set up Su Potianji. Anyone who shoots will be handsome." Ruizong's idiot fans retorted.

"It's about good looks and acting skills, otherwise it will become the "Da Huang Xie Hou Biography" a few years ago, okay, what the hell, he traveled through Marysu to help Ruizong win the heir, fight for power, make suggestions, and even get Ruizong A lifetime of affection. I laughed to death."

"Maybe this is the truth." Some people still had a girlish heart, and tried to refute: "You are not from that dynasty, so what you say is useless."

"Pfft, if the Xie family is really the emperor's true love, will there be only one son of Shengzong in his life? Empress Xie was only in her 20s when she gave birth to Shengzong. Don't tell me why she was injured and couldn't give birth. They are all still kept in the Yang family."

"Hey, I think that Dahuang, the number one master in the inner palace back then, had a story to tell with Ruizong~"

"Just know it in your heart, don't talk nonsense."

"...Mingming Ruizong was such a wise emperor. He worked diligently and cared for the people all his life, devoted himself to the affairs of the people, and was not obsessed with beauty. There was only one empress in the harem, and he was not in love with power. He abdicated to his son at the age of 50. His scheming skills and talents in governing the country belonged to the top. Top, the reform of the official system, the military system, and the land tax system have laid the foundation for the prosperity of the Zhongxing Dynasty, and left countless very advanced and wise policies for governing the country, why do you just stare at other people's gossip and talk about it." The teacher who came to the classroom in advance listened After a while, helplessly interjected.

The little girls are not afraid: "Because the gossip fits our fantasy. It is better to listen to the teacher about things like political achievements and historical facts~"
