In Ji Yue's impression, the deepest impression of land tax was the thirty tax one in the early Han Dynasty, and it was precisely because of such light conscription that the situation in the early Han Dynasty quickly stabilized. \ But what the hell is the third tax two, it's all in time for last week.
So unlike the discussions of the important ministers below, Ji Yue's eyes simply widened, and he looked at Yingzheng in disbelief.
Whether this is collecting taxes or forcing people to rebel, don't you think about the current yield per mu?
Now that the output of one mu is basically below 200 catties, and more than 300 catties will be rewarded lavishly, is it really appropriate to charge such a high tax?
Even if it is not appropriate to mention it, just charging such a large percentage of taxes will cause many people to be dissatisfied.
However, Ji Yue was still too naïve, and the ministers who came to discuss it had almost no objections.
What they're talking about below is more about how to collect it and where to start it.
Ji Yue really couldn't bear it anymore: "Your Majesty, why are taxes so heavy."
Taxes are heavy and the population is difficult to grow" "Why did the national teacher say this, marriage and marriage, there are laws and laws, how can it be difficult to increase the population.
And now there are new farm tools, the area of cultivated land has increased greatly, and the yield per mu has also increased slightly, and there will inevitably be room for growth in two or three years.
Many of the courtiers below basically had the same expression, nodding their heads in approval.
Ji Yue's eyes couldn't be any bigger, this was the first time he discovered the gap between himself and them, as well as the gap between his three views.
"Your Majesty, the law can control the marriage of the people, but it can control the number of children born to the people."
"No, since you are married, the more children you have, the better."
Ji Yue covered his chest hard, and really wanted to spit out a mouthful of old blood.
Fuck you, the more the merrier.
The food tax paid at home is only enough for a family of three not to starve to death, the more the merrier, and the extra drink the northwest wind "If there is no food at home, how dare you have more children And the tax is heavy, with the amount of food that does not starve to death, how to pay the tax of the heirs as much as possible" Ji Yue's tone was much colder, this was the first time he had seen the cruelty of the thinking of this era.
"Master Guoshi, if a child dies early, he does not need to pay the personal tax, and the payment of the personal tax must be paid after he or she reaches adulthood.
According to the law of Shang Ying, if there are two adult males in a household, they must be separated from each other, and the tax on the number of people does not need to be borne by the original head of the family.
Lees stood up and said.
Ji Yue ignored that it was the Qin Dynasty now, not the era when there were many clans and dozens or hundreds of families were still separated.
If the Qin Dynasty did not divide the family, then the tax would have to be doubled.
"Even so, if too much tax is collected, the people will never have surplus food in their hands, and once there is any natural or man-made disaster, it will be a disaster in an instant."
When a family does not have any surplus products in the house except for food for subsistence.
Then this family relationship, the family structure is quite fragile.
Once there is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, the family structure will collapse in an instant, natural disaster refers to the reduction of grain production in a certain year, or even the failure of the harvest, man-made disaster refers to getting sick, or breaking a leg and so on.
Such a family is not capable of resisting attacks, and it is obviously a very unhealthy state.
Once such a family appears in a large area, then it is simply impossible to increase the population, and to be honest, it is good if the population does not decrease.
Ji Yue also understood why the Qin Dynasty collapsed so quickly Such a land tax policy is a great blow to the entire peasant class.
It will directly lead to the peasant class becoming the most vulnerable class, and once there is a natural or man-made disaster on either side, it is almost inevitable that there will be a riot.
Because Ying Zheng took into account Ji Yue's magic, and this was the first time Ji Yue had raised an objection, and it was a very clear opposition, he didn't get angry immediately, and only after sending the ministers away did he ask Ji Yue what was going on.
Ji Yue let out a long sigh.
"Alas Your Majesty has also been in trouble, and when you know that the taste of starvation is not good, what the people want is nothing more than to live, and if you can eat enough to live, it is better to live.
But if the tax is really collected as His Majesty said, then the food left behind will only be enough for them not to starve to death, and what will happen in the event of a natural or man-made disaster?"
"Natural disasters have their own, and I have sent officials to disaster relief, as for man-made disasters."
Ying Zheng is also stuck, he can go to disaster relief on his side for natural disasters, but man-made disasters, where can he manage them "Your Majesty, natural disasters may not always be able to provide timely relief, let alone man-made disasters If the people have a little surplus food in their hands and no money left, they may go bankrupt in an instant once they encounter any natural or man-made disasters However, if the tax is collected less, even if it cannot guarantee that all the people can survive natural and man-made disasters, at least, the probability of bankruptcy will be greatly reduced, and the possibility of rebellion or riot will also be greatly reduced," Ji Yue continued to persuade.
Ying Zheng waved his sleeves: "It is the idea of the national teacher to let me attack the countries of the world, and it is the idea of the national teacher not to increase taxes."
Then I would like to ask the national teacher where the grain and grass for the attack on the kingdoms will come from if there is no tax Will the national teacher be changed to me?"
Since ancient times, there have been few emperors who are willing to listen to advice, and many emperors who are bent on going their own way.
Ji Yue really wanted to hit someone when he heard it.
Damn, do you have to starve the people to death to fight a war, do you have to get wool from your own people?
Go grab it, go grab someone else's.
Didn't you just rob the dog some time ago?
Hit it, just grab it.
If you rely on domestic taxes alone to prepare grain and grass, a hundred catties of grain and grass will be sent to the Roman Empire, and it would be good to have twenty catties left.

But even if he was speechless, he had to explain it Who let this be the path he chose at the beginning, and the path he chose had to go down on his knees.
"Isn't what Your Majesty did when he attacked the dog Rong in the past a good example?
If you can get it from the outside, why oppress the people What's more, I gave His Majesty a few kinds of good seeds last year, and the yield per mu should be able to be calculated at this time If it can be officially promoted, it will be light and thin, and the matter of grain and grass should also be worry-free. ” Ying Zheng took a deep look at Ji Yue, thought for a while and sighed: "But in this way, the attack on the Peacock Dynasty will have to be delayed for a few more years."
"Your Majesty, the grinder is not a woodcutter, recently Weichen is having the idea of refining the Yannian Pill, if the refining is successful, one can prolong the life of a Jiazi.
Your Majesty has a long time, so there is no need to be so anxious."
Ji Yue suddenly understood, and he dared to be aware that Ying Zheng had listened to his description of the surrounding countries before, and was a little worried about his lifespan, so he couldn't wait to raise taxes so as to promote the start of a full-scale war as soon as possible
