Chapter 118 Sell me for 150 taels?Zhu Gaoxu is numb
"It's natural."

Hearing Zhu Houcong's words, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded immediately, and said with a grim expression: "The reason why we did chieftain back then was because the situation in various places was too complicated, and we didn't have time to make adjustments after the unification. Only then will the existence of chieftain be allowed."

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang paused for a moment, then turned his head, looked at the other emperors, and opened his mouth, saying: "We had a reason for the incident at that time, and we didn't have time to take care of the chieftain. What happened to you at that time?" Son? Why don’t you abolish the toast?”

Zhu Di quickly opened his mouth, expressing that he was not sticky to the pan: "My son did it, but the operation was incomplete. I will go to conquer Tatar and Wala later, which will waste time."

Yes, Zhu Di did.

The chief envoy of Guizhou was written by Zhu Di. Some chieftains in Guizhou and other places were abolished and directly became the land under the jurisdiction of Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yunwen waved his hands helplessly and didn't speak, but everyone knew what he was going to say.

Yes, it has nothing to do with him.

But I believe that if Zhu Yunqi has not stepped down, he will definitely be the vanguard of "reform the land and return the people".

He couldn't bear the vassal king with the same surname, let alone a chieftain with a different surname.

Zhu Qiyu was also very helpless and aggrieved: "Grandfather, in the early stage of my coming to power, I focused on dealing with Oala, and in the middle stage, I focused on restoring people's livelihood. You know what it will be like in the later stage. I really don't have time to manage the chieftain. Once the chieftain rebelled, disputes arose between the north and the south. Daming will be in danger again..."

"Indeed, you also have reasons."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, and looked at Zhu Yijun and Zhu Youjian again.

Zhu Yijun's eyes widened, and he was very innocent: "Grandpa, I am 12 years old this year. Mr. Zhang and the queen mother are in charge of major matters, and it has nothing to do with me."

Hearing Zhu Yijun's words, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to turn around and hold Zhang Juzheng for a small meeting, and then looked at Zhu Youjian.

"Taizu, do you think I can control the chieftain? There are natural disasters everywhere and man-made disasters everywhere. Today a thief will be a thief tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow will be a slave who knocks on the customs. For a while, it is Shaanxi and Gansu, and for a while it is Zhili, It will be Shandong in a while..."

That's right, Zhu Youjian was wronged.

He didn't have any government orders, and he was tortured crazy by bandits, slavery, and civil uprisings. What does it have to do with him?Those chieftains are thankful for not rebelling against Zhu Youjian. Many of them even made it clear that they wanted to fight against the Qing Dynasty and sent troops to support Zhu Youjian!
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, and then turned his gaze to Zhu Houcong: "What about you, Emperor Jiajing?"

Seeing this, Zhu Houcong was at a loss for words for a while.

amount……

it seems to be like this.

Everyone has their own reasons.

Either the war is anxious, or there is something real, or young and ignorant, it seems that only one side has the power, and it is a peaceful and prosperous age.

I raised this point of view, how did it end up being my problem again?
What's the situation? This is it.

Zhu Houcong was numb. He didn't expect that in a few words, he dug a hole for himself. He took a deep breath for a while, and could only say: "There is a reason for me. I am the successor of the vassal king. Countless My eyes are fixed on me. I have spent several years trying to seize power with them! This is not just a power in my hands, I haven't had time to let go to do "spread into the mu", let alone "reform the soil and return to the people" gone."

Hearing Zhu Houcong's words, Zhu Qiyu and Zhu Youjian, the two emperors who were also vassal kings, felt sorry for each other and said so.

It is too uncomfortable for the child of the feudal king to succeed to the throne.

Ugh.

And the other emperor Zhu Di, who succeeded the vassal king, had a normal face, without any expression, and had no empathy for Zhu Houcong's words.

what?
Does the feudal king need to seize power?

Why didn't I have such a thing?
Zhu Di shook his head, feeling that he had nothing to talk about with the emperor who was succeeded by other feudal lords.

But at this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly looked at Zhu Houcong suspiciously, and then said, "What is this 'stand into the mu'?"

"Spreading into the ground, the ground unites into one."

Zhu Houcong took a deep breath, and then said this policy to Zhu Yuanzhang without reservation, and then said:

"The collection of small silver into the land tax has abolished the previous head; the control of household registration has been relaxed, so that farmers and handicraftsmen can move freely and sell their labor; the local governments of each province have checked the number of acres of land in each place, and distributed taxes on an equal basis. ; Those who have a large number of people will have a lot of fields, and those who have a small number of people will also have fields.”

It sounds complicated, but it's actually quite simple.

Peasants without land can no longer bear the previous income tax. Those who occupy less than 30 mu of land will bear less burden, while those who occupy more than 60 acres of land will have a larger burden.

The more land occupied, the more burden will be added.

In a whipping law in the Ming Dynasty, part of the Ding tax was apportioned into the land tax, and the apportionment of the Ding into the mu was to cancel the poll tax.

Although the expansion of the population into the Qing added impetus to the population explosion of the Qing Dynasty, the landlords were not stupid after the expansion of the population into the mu, and they naturally had new methods. They often concealed the number of their own people and land, and then transferred the more Part of it was transferred to the peasants, colluding with officials.

However, this method of tax avoidance has basically existed in all dynasties. Even in later generations, there are many so-called "reasonable tax avoidance", which cannot be avoided.

However, as long as the means are more advanced than before, that would be great.

After the implementation of a whip method, it is extremely easy to spread the people into the mu.

After hearing Zhu Houcong's words, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and then nodded, approvingly said: "That's right, it's a good idea, how did it come about?"

"During the Qing Dynasty, Yongzheng's reform policy."

Zhu Houcong said indifferently: "If there was no Yongzheng, the prophecy of 'Hu Wu's national fortune for a hundred years' would have really come true."

Yes.

The emperor of the Qing Dynasty should really kowtow to Yongzheng. Although this guy is a Manchurian, it can be said that he devoted himself to the Manchurian country and died.

Hearing what Zhu Houcong said, Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head immediately, and then said: "This strategy is good. Write a charter in the future, and Ming Dynasty should implement it, so as to enrich the treasury and increase the number of people."

This is nothing to say, this is a matter of duty.

But at this moment, Zhu Qiyu suddenly opened his mouth, bowed his hands respectfully to Zhu Houcong, and then said: "As for this stall, I would like to ask Emperor Jiajing to explain it carefully, I am very interested in it."

Hearing what Zhu Qiyu said, and the surrounding emperors, except Zhu Yijun, all listened attentively, which surprised Zhu Houcong. After all, even Zhu Yunqi, who is no longer the emperor, listened attentively.

This surprised Zhu Houcong a little.

But it doesn't matter, Zhu Houcong then cleared his throat, and began to describe in detail the situation of the "divided into the mu" situation, and at the same time talked about the taxation method of the modern income tax, to see if you have any questions It is a wonderful idea that this modern income tax taxation method can be improved in ancient times and used for commercial taxes suitable for ancient times.

And listening to Zhu Houcong's narration, Zhu Qiyu became more and more interested.

Although in the Jingtai Dynasty, with the endorsement of Emperor Gao and Emperor Taizong Wen of the Ming Dynasty, no one can shake Zhu Qiyu's throne at this moment, but Zhu Qiyu hated those civil servants deeply, but there was no reason to kill people casually.

After all, he is not like Zhu Houcong, who can call the wind and rain and drive the thunder and lightning as he speaks. He still needs to stabilize people's hearts in the court.

Now that the appearance of "Stand Ding into Mu" naturally made Zhu Qiyu feel a thought and hope.

After all, the appearance of this "stall into the mu" means that Zhu Qiyu can severely attack the civil servants.

what?
Why can "spread into the mu" be able to attack civil servants?
Naturally, because in this era, most civil servants are landlords from their hometowns!

Although the Ming Dynasty has laws and regulations, imperial examinations and officials can be exempted from part of the land tax, but those high-ranking officials naturally cannot only have those fields on the surface, and many illegally acquired fields are named on "relatives of the same clan" to serve as white for officials. Gloves.

In this regard, Zhu Qiyu said that he would strike hard and hit hard!
After explaining the method of 'into the mu' in one breath, Zhu Houcong went on to say: "After entering the mu, the following three points need to be implemented."

"First of all, we must resolutely prevent gentry and landlords from monopolizing the collection of money and food. If anyone dares to resist peace, he will naturally be suppressed with iron and blood methods, and all his achievements will be lost. Future generations will not be allowed to participate in the imperial examination!"

"Secondly, to put an end to the collusion of officials and gentry, we need to order Jinyiwei to patrol day and night. Many landlords and gentry have more or less friends in the court, so we need to set an example to others. If such cases occur, heavy punishments will be required!"

"Thirdly, register the gentry from all over the country. If there are gentry who respond positively, they can take care of the talented children in their clan. If the students with fair talents are selected, they can be given priority. Dispatch of officials! Of course, these students must also be screened to prevent any wave of school strikes, once they occur, they will be expelled from the academy and never be admitted!"

"..."

Zhu Houcong has seen such things as protests and marches many times: all on the news.

This is often the case abroad.

There is one thing to say, sometimes it is very useful for students to go on strike. After all, they are patriotic youths, and they should be.

But students at this age are the easiest to be deceived, and they are completely different from the patriotic students back then, when the country was weak, losing power and humiliating the country, it was natural.

But now there is a powerful imperial court, and the most important thing is that most of the current students are related to the landlord class, and their direct interests are damaged. Once there is any problem, their protests, strikes, etc. How should we judge?

Hearing Zhu Houcong's words, everyone kept in mind, but Zhu Yuanzhang added: "One more thing, regarding the relationship between tenant farmers and landlords, we think we should handle it properly..."

Zhu Yuanzhang moistened his throat and was about to say something when he saw that the time for this group meeting was approaching. He immediately felt a little regretful, shook his head, and then said: "Aiming at this problem, everyone should brainstorm after returning. Throughout the dynasties there have been smart people, and our emperor wants to win over these smart people, use them for us, and provide us with better strategies for governing the country!"

Zhu Houcong also nodded, and then said with a smile: "That's right, Emperor Taizu is right. After he returns, he will mobilize the courtiers to come up with a good idea and implement it together."

"This is the end of today's group meeting. See you next time."

As the time point not far away returned to zero, Zhu Houcong's front gradually became unreal. Soon, he felt dizzy for a while, and returned to the military tent that had disappeared in an instant.

After returning to the military tent, Zhu Houcong suddenly thought of something, and said regretfully, "I forgot to use the point mall."

Yes, Zhu Houcong still has 12 group points, so he forgot to buy something.

But it doesn't matter, just be a rat.

After all, the more points, the better the rewards.

But after Zhu Houcong came back, he glanced around, and saw that he was standing in front of Zhu Houcong, kneeling upright, with his buttocks sticking out high: "Your Majesty, my servant, is blessed and safe!"

Zhu Houcong didn't feel that there was anything wrong, then sat on the dragon chair, looked at Bingbi, and opened his mouth, "What happened during the hour when I disappeared?"

"Qizuo Your Majesty, when Your Majesty and you were wandering in the heavens, the Jiannu launched an attack. The Xianghong and Zhenghong flags came out from the right wing, the Xianglan flag and Zhenglan flag came out from the left wing, and the Xianghuang and Zhenghuang flags shot out. It came out from the main gate, General Yu, General Qiu and General Liu have already led their troops to meet them!"

Bingbi's voice was very obsequious. Although he mentioned several famous generals who were the main force, he did not mention Tu Mo who led the surrender to the green battalion to become a death squad.

After all, Tu Mo is not his good friend now, but his competitor, a big bad guy!
Therefore, as long as the emperor has a good impression of Tu Mo, he will never say a word.

Hearing Bingbi's words, Zhu Houcong had nothing to worry about.

As long as they play normally, the Ming army will definitely win.

If they make a mistake, at least they will be in a stalemate.

Zhu Houcong didn't think that Yu Dayou would be here, facing these Eight Banners soldiers like the ancestors of the second generation, and suffer an unprecedented defeat.

If there is a fiasco, then it will be Zhu Houcong's turn to write an edict of guilt, and Yu Dayou will even die to apologize.

"Beijing City."

Zhu Houcong smiled slightly, and looked at the props that he had traded in the group system: "It can be destroyed with a snap of a finger!"

"By the way, there is also His Highness the King of Han."

……

On Zhu Di's side, they also returned to the Qianqing Palace.

But after Zhu Di came back, he found that the entire palace was full of ministers and generals. The leaders were the prince Zhu Gaochi and the Han king Zhu Gaoxu, and even the grandson Zhu Zhanji and Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui came.

Seeing Zhu Di appearing on the dragon chair again, everyone was startled, and then Zhu Gaochi heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "Father, you are really scared to death. Suddenly disappeared, I thought you were always called away by the gods!"

Zhu Gaoxu also opened his mouth shrewdly at the side, "Yes, father, just now my elder brother almost thought that I conspired to take your old man away."

Zhu Zhanji, who was originally lively and cheerful, didn't dare to say a word, so he could only cup his hands and say, "Grandpa is safe and well", then shrank behind the third uncle, daring not to speak.

But Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui was a little surprised and looked at Zhu Zhanji a few more times.

My eldest nephew went to other dynasties with his second brother, and after returning, he felt that he was different, not as skinny as before, but more sinister and gloomy.

I feel more ruthless than myself.

It seems that on the way to fight for the throne, there is another big enemy!
Zhu Gaosui could only think helplessly.

But he was helpless, half a year ago he was reprimanded for no reason, took away all his powers, and thought about his mistakes behind closed doors in Zhao Wang's mansion, so he didn't get kicked out to become a vassal. This made Zhu Gaosui very helpless, feeling that he was getting farther and farther away from the throne up.

That's right, Zhu Gaosui, the third king of Zhao, also wanted to be emperor.

In the seventh year of Yongle, he framed the prince many times, but was disgusted by Zhu Di.

In history, he even wanted to poison Zhu Di.

Plan to poison the emperor, wait for Yan to drive, order from the middle, abolish the prince, and establish the king of Zhao!

It's just that he was a little too stupid. After being found out, Zhu Di was very disappointed, but also because he was his third son, he was not punished.

And Zhu Gaosui still doesn't know his fate, and he doesn't know why Zhu Di hates him, so he can only dormant aside.

"Okay, okay, let's go."

Zhu Di felt a little annoyed when he saw the black and white crowd, and immediately waved his hands to signal the officials to disperse, and then said: "The boss, the second child, and the grandson stay here!"

Zhu Gaosui said courteously, "Father, what about me?"

"You go too." Zhu Di was annoyed.

Zhu Gaosui could only leave with the courtiers.

Originally, the Qianqing Palace was quite full, but suddenly there were only three people left.

"Father, why are you keeping us here?"

Zhu Gaoxu asked with a playful smile: "Is there something you want your sons to do? If that's the case, then don't bother me. After all, my brother is delicate and fleshy, so there will be no trouble."

Although Zhu Gaochi took the fortifying liquid that Zhu Di gave him, Zhu Gaochi's weight didn't drop at all, just doing some exercise on weekdays so that he wouldn't be out of breath.

Zhu Di didn't know if it would be useful, but at least in the eyes of others, the crown prince has not changed much.

And hearing what Zhu Gaoxu said, Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanji were about to refute something, but they saw Zhu Di nodded and agreed approvingly: "Among my sons, you are the most filial, most like me, and can understand me the most. mind."

Listening to Zhu Di's words, Zhu Gaoxu was overjoyed, but Zhu Zhanji felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured all over his body, and his heart turned cold all of a sudden.

Zhu Gaochi is still the old god, it seems that it has nothing to do with him.

Zhu Gaoxu immediately said loyally: "What orders does the emperor have, I will definitely go through fire and water, and I will not hesitate!"

"You know the country is short of money, right?" Zhu Di sighed.

Hearing this sentence, Zhu Gaoxu was taken aback, and subconsciously evaded: "Father, even if my son has great powers, he can't change money."

"No, second child, you can earn money."

Zhu Di smiled and said, "Aren't you Tang Taizong? Back then when Tang Taizong won the hearts of the people, you might as well sprinkle a handful of golden beans like you."

"Father, you are joking, the story about Jindouzi is all fake..."

Zhu Gaoxu could only smirk.

And Zhu Di then stared at him, and then said: "Okay! I won't pursue with you the matter of your embezzlement of military pay! Now there is a way for you to make money for the treasury. I will rent you to Emperor Jiajing. Emperor Jiajing is fighting now, and he needs the help of the brave Zhu family like you, and you can earn 150 taels a day for the treasury!"

"150 taels?!"

Zhu Gaoxu turned pale with shock, and hurriedly said: "Father, you sold your son for 150 taels?!"

"150 taels, how many people's annual savings is this?! Why is it like a small sum of money to come to you?"

Zhu Di scolded angrily, and then said: "The deal has been concluded, you have to go if you don't want to."

Zhu Gaoxu was numb and could only sigh: "Father, I have no objection to the war. How many soldiers and horses should I bring to help this time? Let me tell you first, I must take my two thousand black armored cavalry. What are the rest?" For infantry and luggage, 6 or [-] people are enough."

"Not that much." Zhu Di shook his head.

Zhu Gaoxu asked subconsciously: "How much is that, twenty to thirty thousand?"

"No." Zhu Di shook his head again.

Zhu Gaoxu couldn't bear it anymore: "Isn't there no ten thousand?"

"Just you."

Zhu Gaoxu:?

 I went to hang the salt water this afternoon, and the state has recovered. I am sorry for the 5000-word chapter today~
  More tomorrow!
