Chapter 94
Revise taxes?Fill the treasury?
Yao Guangyun didn't want to directly veto it, but from his point of view, it is not a trivial matter to revise the tax, and it involves countless people of Great Wei.

Therefore, Yao Guangyun said directly: "Your Majesty, the people are already under heavy taxes, and in some places, food taxes are collected several years in advance."

"If taxes are raised, I'm afraid there will be complaints from the people."

Yao Guangyun said, as an ordinary citizen, he is naturally not qualified to say such a thing, but it is because he is an ordinary person that he needs to say such a thing at this time.

After all, once the emperor puts his mind on food tax, it will be a big trouble.

"Mr. is wrong. I am not raising taxes, but reducing taxes."

Jiang Ling spoke, and Yao Guangyun was dumbfounded by one sentence.

What the hell?tax cut?The treasury of Great Wei is now empty, and money is needed everywhere. If there is no money, the whole Great Wei is about to collapse.

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, what is the meaning of this, Caomin really don't understand."

Yao Guangyun didn't want to bother anymore, so he asked Jiang Ling directly.

"In the Great Wei Dynasty, there were endless fertile fields, but less than [-]% of the land was taxed. Therefore, I want to change the head-to-head tax collection and use the fertile land system to collect taxes."

"Reduce the people's tax by [-]% and calculate the tax based on the land. In this way, a large amount of food tax can be collected without affecting the domestic people."

"I don't know what Mr. thinks?"

Jiang Ling opened his mouth and revealed his plan to spread all the money into the mu.

"Change the tax system, head tax to land tax?"

Yao Guangyun was a little silent. He repeatedly understood the meaning. After about a quarter of an hour, Yao Guangyun's eyes instantly became astonished.

hiss.

In the hall, Yao Guangyun gasped. Although he was the emperor's teacher, he didn't need any fame or status, and he often traveled to the great Wei mountains and rivers.

Therefore, he has a very good understanding of the survival of the people and the actions of officials in various places.

One of the most important ones is that many officials and gentry families have private land, and these fields are not taxed, especially the aristocratic families, which have thousands of acres of fertile land, but only pay taxes on the basis of three or five people.

On the contrary, some poor people have only a few acres of land on hand, but they have to pay taxes for five or six people.

In this way, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer, completely out of balance.

However, Yao Guangyun did not expect that the empress would come up with such a solution.

Reduce the wealth of the rich, increase the wealth of the poor, let the poor live better, and let the rich earn less.

Firstly, they can get the support of the general public, and secondly, these officials, gentry and rich men dare not rebel. After all, facing countless common people, how dare they make mistakes?

Three times, it can also solve the plight of the court. This is really a matter of killing three birds with one stone.

The ultimate strategy, the ultimate strategy through the ages.

Yao Guangyun was shocked, his breathing became a little short of breath.

On the jade table, the Great Wei Empress enjoyed Yao Guangyun's gaze very much. This kind of shocking gaze is really flattering.

"Your Majesty, this plan is really a great one, and the grass-roots people throw themselves to the ground."

Yao Guangyun was deeply shocked, this strategy is really unparalleled in the world.

It's just that Yao Guangyun said slowly: "Your Majesty, this plan is good, but it offends all the officials and gentry families in the whole Great Wei invisibly. What should I do?"

Yao Guangyun said, although the strategy is good, it is meaningless if it cannot be used.

The whole family of officials and gentry will be affected, will they agree?
"As long as the court officials agree, there is no room for them not to agree."

The empress opened her mouth lightly, showing her arrogance in one sentence.

The latter was taken aback for a moment, but soon understood what it meant. It seemed that the empress had already thought of a countermeasure.

It's just that Yao Guangyun really couldn't think of what means the empress would use to force all the officials to agree.

This is something that affects their interests.

It is equivalent to asking them to spend money to fill the treasury, are they willing?

The answer is obvious.

But if the empress really did it, then this method is far better than Renzong.

He was looking forward to it, very much looking forward to it.

"Your Majesty is mighty, so what does His Majesty need you to do?"

The latter spoke and asked the empress.

"This plan will definitely work, so I hope that you can think about it carefully, and see if there are any loopholes, or what the people below will do to deal with the government reform."

The Empress's meaning was very simple, to let Yao Guangyun think about the details of all things in advance.

After Yao Guangyun thought it over, he could tell himself that he would go to Xu Shouyun with what Yao Guangyun said, and Xu Shouyun would not feel that he was too ordinary.

Yao Guangyun thinks that he is extremely intelligent and can kill two birds with one stone.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the grass people will do their best."

Yao Guangyun didn't talk nonsense and agreed directly.

"Excuse me sir."

At the moment, Jiang Ling pulled Yao Guangyun to talk about other things in detail.

Until the next morning, when the sky was bright, Yao Guangyun left the palace.

After walking out of the palace, Yao Guangyun's heart was full of emotions. The empress clearly has peerless talent, but just two hours ago, the empress has been humbly asking herself about various ways to check and balance.

How can this not make Yao Guangyun feel emotional, after all, such a wise emperor, yet so humble, is really a sage and wise king.

Looking at the busy traffic in the street, Yao Guangyun walked towards the distance. He didn't intend to go home directly, but went to the restaurant to rest for a while and think about what the Empress said.

Tianyue Restaurant.

About an hour later.

Xu Shouyun opened his eyes, and after another day of martial arts practice, he felt refreshed and didn't feel sleepy at all.

It looks like nothing happened today.

Right now, Xu Shouyun planned to go out to find a connector.

In two months, it's time to find a connector outside, and go out of the palace along the way to see the outside world.

It's really boring to spend every day in the palace.

Get up and leave, with the token of eunuch in charge, Xu Shouyun only needs to report to the supervisor of ceremonies.

And at the same time.

The prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice of the Great Wei Dynasty.

An extremely handsome man sat in the inner hall of the prison, with his legs crossed, admiring the various instruments of torture.

At this moment, a policeman came quickly, his body covered with blood.

"grown ups."

The arrester came quickly and bowed to the handsome man.

"Has the prisoner been recruited?"

The handsome man asked slowly.

"Return to your lord, the prisoner is already dead, there is poison hidden in the socket of the tooth, it cannot be saved."

The latter replied, looking down in embarrassment.

"really."

"Poison is hidden in the tooth socket. It seems that this person has a serious problem. He is also a desperate guy. It would be a pity to die."

"However, the information that should be mastered has been obtained. You deal with the corpse, and I will go out."

The handsome man opened his mouth, and after saying this, he got up and walked towards the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Looking at the handsome man who left, the eyes of several policemen were full of envy.

This man is the number one arrester of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Gongsun Yan.

Only 20 years old, martial arts prodigy, thoughtful, decisive, perfect person with both wisdom and strength.

Now he is also the head of the Criminal Department, a sixth-rank official, so young, it is not a big problem to be promoted to the Minister of the Criminal Department in the future.

About half an hour later.

The figure of Gongsun Yan appeared in Tianyue Restaurant.
