Chapter 1087 (2/2)
Gu Jiu called, and he sat down on the small round stool.
”How are things going?”
”Thanks to my mother, things are going well.” Deng Cunli hung his head and said.
”It's only half a month away from the first day of August. If you have any difficulties, just ask. You will not come for help until the first day of August, and I will not spare you. ”
Gu Jiu looks serious.
The new land law is a great move she has planned for many years.
In order to win the consent of the court officials, many concessions were made.
If it can't be carried out smoothly, she will kill people.
Deng Cunli was well aware of the importance of this matter. ”Report back to the empress. All the staff have been sent. With the help of Sihai meat and vegetable shops, the situation of the state and county governments has been basically understood. On the first day of August, as long as Jin Wuwei and the Ministry of internal affairs cooperate well, they will surely make a good start.At present, the most important problem is that there is a close relationship between the small people and the big families who offer their land. One wanted to take the land back, the other refused to let go. Yamen all over the country can receive similar cases every day. With the arrival of the first day of August, I am afraid that if the young master does not intervene in time, I am afraid it will lead to a big case. ”
Gu Jiu gently taps the table top, ”what you said, this palace has heard several times recently. As the autumn harvest approaches, Xiaomin will have to pay a great price if he wants to take back his land. It is said that some of them have a year's harvest, some even two years' harvest. Whether it is a year's harvest or a two-year harvest, the grain is handed out, which means that these small people will be hungry immediately. It's a tough winter this year, and it's even more difficult in the next year's blue and yellow months. In addition, those who have the heart to help the flames may cause civil unrest. ”
”Is your mother worried about the rebellion?”
Gu Jiu nodded, ”you can't help it! Shaofu grain business should be set up in advance, let Sihai meat restaurant cooperate with you and find out the family background of Xiaomin. After the autumn harvest, it issued an announcement that the grain bank would borrow grain at 10% annual interest rate, and the grain varieties of next year would also be lent. Just take this opportunity to promote the selection of fine grain varieties
Deng Cunli frowned slightly, ”the burden of the Shaofu grain company is very heavy. The profit will be settled after the autumn harvest next year, and the whole court is waiting for the dividend. Isn't it too cheap to lend grain to the peasants at 10% interest? If you can't finish the profit-making task, you will have to pay to Shaofu grain company next year. ”
Gu Jiu yelled, ”is profit important or the promotion of the law important? You are an old man around the palace. You should be able to tell the weight. In order to promote the law, even if it is not interest, you should also borrow food, you understand?
There is no room for error in the law of paying taxes by the whole people. Money is scum before this law. We will give you private subsidies for how much money the government will lack next year. However, the implementation of the law of ”ten taxes and one national tax payment” is not conducive to the implementation of this law. From you, we will be guilty one by one, and no one will be immune from it! ”
Deng Cunli's face turned white, ”my mother taught me. The old slave will not fail to live up to his mother's expectations and resolutely carry out the ”ten taxes and one comprehensive tax payment.”
Gu Jiu's face was a little more gentle. ”About the profit of Shaofu's grain business, grain can be transported to the West and to the grassland. It's all profiteering over there. The wine making workshops of Shaofu grain company can also be put into operation in advance. The liquor produced by Shaofu should occupy at least half of the market. That group of rich people, holding a large amount of land and food in their hands, almost monopolized the grain and wine making market. This palace wants you to break the monopoly of the rich on grain and wine and force them to sell their fields. ”
”Yes, old man! Old slaves don't worry about the market, they worry about the rioting of the rich. ”
”Don't worry about it. Instead of worrying about the rioting of the rich, it's better to worry about the small people who are hungry and become bandits and harm their neighbors. ”
”Your mother is right.”
Gu Jiu frowns.
Deng Cunli asked cautiously, ”is your mother worried that the law will not be carried out smoothly?”
Gu Jiu nodded, ”the first year is the most important, everyone is staring at the first day of August. As soon as the officials don't go along, the quail gang will jump. At that time, the palace and his majesty will be under pressure from officials and rich gentry from all over the world. Therefore, the burden on your shoulders is very heavy. This palace also places hope on your major. I hope you don't let this house down. ”
Deng Cunli has already felt the pressure like the top of Mount Tai at the moment, ”I understand. The old slaves would personally sit in the various prefectures of the capital, watching their children measure the land and calculate the tax. To ensure the smooth implementation of ”ten taxes and one national tax payment” in the capital. As long as there is no problem with the capital, half of the world will be stable. ”
Gu Jiu nodded, ”the remaining half is in Jiangnan. The palace specially sent Bai Zhong, the third prince and Qian Xiang to Jiangnan, hoping that they would not let this palace down. ”
After a pause, she said, ”Your Highness will sit in the capital with you. You don't have to be under pressure, just follow the plan. His Highness the king of Qi will arrange his own itinerary
When he heard that his Highness the king of Qi wanted to sit in the capital city with him, Deng Cunli felt great pressure.
His highness, the king of Qi, can basically be determined to be the prince.
What attitude should he take towards his Highness the king of Qi? This is a question worth pondering.
Gu Jiu reminds him, ”you just have to remember that you are a member of this palace, and you can do whatever you want.”
Deng Cunli trembled and woke up.
”Yes! Old slaves listen to their mothers. ”
He secretly spits on himself. The older he gets, the more turbid he is. He is not as transparent as he was then.
The place of Shao Fu will corrode people's mind.
He reminded himself that he was always introspective and could not lose the Queen's trust.
Gu Jiu sent Deng Cunli off, ready to rest for half an hour.
Ma Xiaoliu, an internal servant, came in quietly with a Book of accounts. ”I'd like to report to my wife that the preliminary tax collection budget has been drawn from the archives.”
”Bring it here.”
According to ten taxes and one tax paid by the whole people, deducting part of the land needed to be tax-free in three years' buffer, and according to the number of land under the world registered by Sihai meat and vegetable shop, the amount of tax on autumn harvest this year can be estimated.As long as the tax collection is smooth, the deviation will not be too large.
The account book is still fine, with the county government as the unit for statistics.
Gu Jiu turned page after page, his face became more and more dignified.
Ma Xiaoliu's heart was tight, ”isn't your mother satisfied with this budget?”
”No, the palace is satisfied.”
Because of her satisfaction, she knew that the Shao Fu had to bear ten times more pressure than she expected.
Why?
Although the tax rate is low, it is known from the budget that the tax collected will be more than five to ten times that of previous years.
This data is terrible!
Once the news of this budget is leaked, officials all over the world will be angry and scold their mother. Maybe he directly revolted against the Liu Dynasty.
Why?
Because the extra tax revenue comes from the pockets of officials all over the world.
