Chapter 835 Colonial Policy
Therefore, under Lin Yifan's modification and filling, some changes occurred in the policy.

Lin Yifan changed the militia group into an expedition team, allowing the civilians to form expedition teams to go overseas to explore unknown worlds.

After the folk explore and conquer the land outside the territory, they only need to declare to the imperial court to have the permanent right to use the land.The imperial court incorporated it into its territory and gave it the necessary protection by force.

As for the development of the area, it is all built by the people themselves. As long as it is legal and compliant, and taxes are paid in full, the imperial court will not interfere.

At the same time, those who discover new lands will be able to obtain titles bestowed by the imperial court.Even if you discover a small island, you can get the last township baron.If a new continent comparable to the Central Plains can be found, the highest can be obtained as the Duke of the Kingdom.

From Lin Yifan's point of view, if someone discovered a piece of land as large as the Central Plains, his merits would definitely be enough to get a duke.

Only with heavy rewards can a hero be born.Only Gaojue can stimulate people's desire.Only benefits can make Tianhua move forward forever.

As for the second point, Lin Yifan not only hoped that Tianhua's industry and commerce could go out.I hope they can take on the important task of immigrating to the world.

Therefore, Lin Yifan deliberately added an attractive clause.Anyone who can attract enough people to emigrate and settle overseas will not only be able to receive subsidies and exemptions from the commercial tax that should be levied.The imperial court will also support and transfer technology to their products to make them more competitive.

Moreover, [-]% of the taxes generated by the immigrants will be distributed to those merchants and workshop owners for a period of ten years.

For example, a businessman moved 1 immigrants for the imperial court. According to the current year, the average tax collected by each person in Tianhua is about one tael.Then, the 3000 immigrants will be able to generate 3 taels of tax, and [-]% will be withdrawn, which will be [-] taels of silver.For a period of ten years, it is [-] taels.

This is not to mention that with the improvement of the living standard of immigrants and the reproduction of the population in the future, the tax they will pay will only be higher.The merchants got far more than 3 taels.And the cost of relocating an immigrant is less than one tael of silver.

What's more, after these immigrants migrate overseas, most of them will still work in their workshops and shops, and the invisible profits are even more difficult to calculate.

There is also a change in the bank's deposit and loan interest rates. Although it can absorb part of the money and give some benefits to the people, the effect is not too obvious after all, and it cannot really attract the people to participate in the dividends of expansion.

Therefore, Lin Yifan is going to try out stock bonds. First, government-run workshops and shops will be used as pilots, and shares of different sizes will be allocated for public sale among the people.

Of course, in order to prevent merchants with ulterior motives from buying most of the stocks, it must be stipulated that these stocks cannot be traded privately, but can only be resold to corresponding workshops and shops.Moreover, a purchase limit is also set.Make it difficult for big merchants to swallow a large amount of stocks and affect private sales.

Most of the government-run workshops are mines and military industries involved in national strategies.As long as the imperial court continues to expand abroad, the development of these industries will never stop.

People who hold stocks in these industries can continue to rise with the expansion.

As for private stock issuance and trading, Lin Yifan didn't think about it yet.Because at present, the imperial court needs more money to develop the country's various strategic projects and external expansion.

Therefore, the imperial court must use private financial resources as much as possible to support the continuous construction of these century-old projects.Instead of letting the money flow to the hands of those big merchants.

At the same time, the imperial court can also issue bonds to borrow money from the people in the name of the imperial court, and the interest will be higher than that of bank deposits.

Relying on the reputation of the imperial court for more than ten years, the people in Tianhua's prefectures and counties who have been operating for a long time are more trustworthy. As long as more people can taste the sweetness, more people can be attracted to participate.

In fact, Lin Yifan hopes to promote paper money to facilitate the circulation of transactions.However, this matter involves too much and too much, and if one is not good, it is very likely to cause turmoil.Therefore, Lin Yifan could only hold down this plan for the time being, and wait for it to be implemented in the future.

However, during this period, he decided to gradually let the people understand and accept banknotes, and finally recognized the convenience and reliability of banknotes.

In fact, the banknotes issued by banks now have the function of replacing silver money to a certain extent, and have become paper money in its infancy.

However, the denomination of banknotes is too single and huge, which is only suitable for large commercial transactions, but not conducive to private transactions.

First of all, he decided to implement salary tickets within the imperial court first. In the future, the salaries received by court officials will be replaced by salary tickets of different sizes.Officials can withdraw money from the bank for use, or deposit it in the bank to earn interest.

At the same time, it can be used as an ordinary transaction.The imperial court will issue a decree to prohibit the common people from refusing to accept the imperial paycheck.

As for the salary ticket, Lin Yifan didn't expect it to be effective in circulation.Instead, use this as an example for the common people to see.Even court officials use banknotes, so what do ordinary people like them have to worry about?

The second step is to implement the same in the army, and the military salary and rewards in the future will be mainly based on salary tickets.When the soldiers send their paychecks home, they can influence the family members of the military and use the paychecks for transactions.

You must know that Tianhua now has a regular army and a reserve force, totaling more than 150 million people, involving at least 700 million people.Moreover, the recruitment of soldiers every year will involve tens of thousands of people, and if things go on like this, more and more people will be affected.

Then the third step is to implement it in government-run workshops and shops. The wages of workers will be replaced by paychecks, so as to activate Tianhua's hundreds of thousands of government-run workers, and the millions of family members involved, to become the currency of paper money. user.

The fourth step is to further expand to the payment method of taxes. The imperial court will gradually abolish the collection of silver and use paychecks instead.

People pay taxes, and they can only go to the bank to exchange the same amount of paychecks to complete the payment of taxes.During this period, the imperial court can introduce some preferential policies. As long as the tax is paid by paycheck, there will be preferential tax discounts.

At the fourth step, it can be said that whether it is guidance or coercion, the people of Tianhua have begun to accept the transaction of salary tickets.

Then, the fifth step can be taken, officially confirming paper money as the national currency, completely prohibiting the market transaction of gold and silver, and finally completing the conversion of the currency trading system.

Of course, these five steps are not accomplished overnight. In Lin Yifan's plan, the implementation will last for 20 years.Let the people really accept paper money, not because of the imperial court's coercion.

The most important thing is that the promotion of banknotes involves extremely complicated interests and contradictions. It must be promoted steadily, and problems should be drawn from them, and then solved, so that when they become popular in the world, a relatively complete system has been established to prevent endangering national interests. danger.
