Summon the Mythical Emperor of the World

Chapter 17: Collect all land and state it

   Although Li Si was curious about the reaction of King Goryeo, he didn't care too much!

  The land of bullets!

   Li Si can send Baiqi at any time as long as he wants to kill the Korean royal family.

   The royal family was destroyed, and Korea naturally fell into civil strife.

   At that time, if Datang intervened a little bit, he could directly control the entire Goryeo Kingdom!

   The next day.

   The morning ends.

   Hube Shangshu pays respect to Li Si with a bitter face.

   "See Your Majesty." Hube Shangshu sighed.

   Li Si took a look at Hubu Shangshu: "Why is Aiqing troubled?"

   Hubu Shangshu is one of the few veterans in the court to be loyal to the Tang Dynasty.

   His performance like this must be because of the state affairs of the Tang Dynasty.

  Shangshu of the Ministry of Households sighed lightly: "Your Majesty, the new year is approaching. This year, Datang’s tax revenue has been reduced by 10% compared with last year!

   "The old minister is ashamed!"

   Hube Shangshu knelt on his knees, afraid to face Li Si.

   "Reduce taxes by 10%?"

   Li Si frowned.

   Taxation is the foundation of a country, and it is the basic embodiment of measuring the prosperity of a country.

   In layman's terms, a country can only do things if it receives sufficient taxes.

   "What is the reason?" Li Si asked.

   Hubu Shangshu took out a memorial and handed it to Li Si: "Please see, Your Majesty!"

   Li Si opened the memorial and glanced away, his face getting more and more ugly.

   Datang inherited the land system of the previous dynasty and implemented the land equalization system.

  What is the equalization system?

   is to distribute the land equally to the people!

   Then the people cultivate the land, and Datang collects taxes according to the population!

   As many people as there are in the family, the tax is charged for as many people as possible.

   has nothing to do with the amount of food grown!

   This kind of land system would greatly promote the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty if it did not encounter natural and man-made disasters.

   The prosperity of decades established before the Tang Dynasty is inseparable from the equalization of the field.

   It’s just that there is a huge drawback of the Homo-Tian system.

   That is tax exemption for privileged class!

   Some clan landlords, wealthy families, and officials' children have the right to tax exemption.

   In other words, no matter how much land they own, they don’t have to pay taxes to the court.

   This kind of privileged class has existed since ancient times.

   Even Li Si is helpless for the time being!

   If it's just like this, there is no problem.

   After all, the privileged class is a minority after all.

   The most in this world are ordinary people.

   As long as they pay taxes honestly, they can't shake the country.

   It’s just that the equalization system has been implemented for hundreds of years!

  In the past few hundred years, the people who owned the land at the time had already died.

   The rest are the descendants of those people.

   And these descendants, during these hundreds of years, perhaps due to various reasons, could not pay taxes and could only sell their land to family landlords.

   When the land is in the hands of the family landlords, it becomes their own land without paying taxes to the state.

   Come and go like this.

  The land is still in its original place.

   But it has become a tax-free zone for family landlords.

   The country’s tax revenue is virtually missing.

   This will last forever, hundreds of years later!

   The taxes that the court can collect are naturally less and less.

   the less part, all fell into the hands of the family landlord.

   Li Si became more angry as he watched.

   The court gave these aristocratic families various comforts and various subsidies, but how did these aristocratic families return?

   annex people's land!

   Fighting for taxes with the court?

   This is what those wealthy families do!

   Li Si is in anger!

   The people of Datang sold their land to the wealthy family. If the people lost their land, they could only help the deceased family to help them grow.

   The people helped to cultivate the land, and the wealthy family gave corresponding rewards. Over time, the people only knew about the wealthy family. As for the court...

   They don’t pay taxes to the court, so what do they care about?

  嘭!

   Li Si patted the motion before him fiercely, so angry!

   This is no longer an ordinary land annexation!

   This is shaking the country!

   This is shaking the foundation of Datang's rule!

   It is precisely because of these wealthy families that Datang has been segregated into a country by China!

   The local people only know the wealthy family, but don’t know the Emperor of Tang Dynasty!

   Li Si narrowed his eyes slightly.

   He absolutely cannot allow these wealthy families to continue to act so recklessly!

   Otherwise, after a long time, when all the people's land in Datang is returned to the landlord of the family, is it still Li Si?

   Let these family landlords make themselves kings!

   Li Si's mind turned ill, constantly thinking about countermeasures.

   If you want to reverse the situation, the easiest way is to take back the land of the world!

  Only when all the land under the sky is returned to the state and the people start paying taxes to the state again, can the taxation problem be completely solved!

   Hube Shangshu was trembling with fright at this time!

   didn't even dare to speak, for fear that it would aggravate Li Si's anger.

   Li Si closed the memorial and looked at Hube Shangshu who was kneeling on the ground: "It's not your fault, get up!"

   "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Hube Shangshu said with a trembling voice.

   Li Si pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "I have something for you to do!"

   "Your Majesty, please say!" Hube Shangshu bowed.

   Li Si looked at the Hubu Shangshu: "Take all the statistics of those wealthy landlords who have annexed the land of the people."

   "Not only that, the land of these family landlords is also counted for me."

   "I want to see how much land that does not need to pay taxes now occupies the territory of my Datang!!"

   This word comes out!

   Hube Shangshu feels cold?

  Statistics of the land in the world?

   Why did the emperor do this?

   Hubu Shangshu can't believe that the emperor is simply counting the land.

   just...

   Since it's not simple...

   Not a simple place?

   Hube Shangshu's heart beat faster. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

   Between the electric light and the flint, a few words suddenly appeared in the head of Shangshu:

  Receive the world's land!

   That's right!

   After the statistics are completed, the next step for the emperor is to recover all these lands!

   At this point, Hube Shangshu's face paled!

  Receive the land of the world?

   How is this possible?

  Those people may not matter!

   Anyway, the land is not in their hands.

   But where is the wealthy family?

   Are they willing to give up the land they have accumulated for generations?

How can this be? !

   By doing this, your Majesty is tantamount to being an enemy of the whole world!

   Li Si glanced at the book from the Ministry of Households, frowned and said, "What are you going to do, don’t you hurry down and give me statistics?"

   "Chen..."

   "The minister abides by the edict!"

   Hube Shangshu moved his lips, but finally did not dissuade the emperor.

   It's not that he is afraid.

   but the emperor now, just let him count the land.

   showed no other meaning!

   In this case, Hube Shangshu naturally cannot say much.

"All right!"

   "Go down!"

   Li Si waved his hand.

   Hube Shangshu left.

   Li Si made people call Cao Zhengchun again.

   "What is your Majesty's summoning ministers?" Cao Zhengchun asked respectfully.

   "I asked the Hubu Shangshu to count the land in the world. You can let people stare at them, and look at the wealthy family members who have violated the law!"

   Li Si sneered.

   The matter of statistics on land is related to the self-interest of those family landlords, and it will not go too smoothly.

   Li Si wants to see who will stop him!
