Chapter 162: Everyone in the World Values Profit


According to Su Xian's thoughts a long time ago.It should be given to the current Ming Dynasty, not a whip method, but a paving into the mu.However, as you live in Daming for longer and longer, you will really discover it when you integrate into the customs of this place.Imaginary laws and regulations do not fit in the current context.Just like a whip law, what is needed is a currency of common credibility between the government and the people.The reason why later generations were able to succeed was that after the Ming Dynasty sailed, in the process of trading with foreign countries, most of the silver flowed into the Ming Dynasty, and the government lost control of the currency.At this time, the system of people's collection and people's liberation, or more precisely, the tax system in which taxes in kind and miscellaneous taxes coexisted, had been completely corrupted from the government and the local government.As a last resort, Zhang Juzheng implemented a whip law based on silver.Of course, Zhang Juzheng's reform of the Ming Dynasty is a comprehensive reform.From the "examination law" of officials, to the military, official administration, land, even labor service, economic and other aspects of the restructuring.And Su Xian can only use the "treasure banknote" as the base point, slowly and imperceptibly.One thing he wasn't wrong.That is the end of the dynasties, including the end of the Ming Dynasty, which is actually the four-word land annexation!

The ultimate trend of the people's collection and liberation is also land annexation.After the princes, nobles, gentry, and nobles have the privileges, they will use various means to occupy the land and hide the wealth.If it is not known to the government, it can take advantage of the rules to pay little or no taxes.The official settlement is more like the power that the imperial court will delegate, completely recycled.On this basis, a whip law on taxation was implemented.Wait until the tax really comes.Then the servitude thereafter will also be abolished!

Land, on the other hand, is fundamental and cannot be touched lightly.After all, the Ming Dynasty has only been 11 years since the founding of the country, and at this time, although the regime is newly established, the local stubborn diseases are still stubborn to the point of being unshakable.The imperial power is not under the county, the officials are not clear, and when it comes to land, it will only do good things and bad things!

After all, at this time, even the center of the capital had to appoint a large number of former ministers of the Yuan Court.The Southeast Shi clan is still deeply rooted!

The landlords and gentry in various places still existed, and the Ming Dynasty did not even eliminate the bandits.Before that, it is necessary to rectify the rule of officials and first support a group of people who have benefited from the new law, which is even more important!

And the treasure money is the key to open this gate.And when Su Xian was pondering, what he didn't know was "Isn't this the unification of finance and taxation?"

”Zhu Yuanzhang muttered, and the others also fell into deep thought."

In this way, won't the importance of the treasure money increase in a straight line?"

At this moment, Li Xiyan quickly reacted.From Su Xian's words, he not only thought of public intentions, but also selfishness."

Your Majesty, don't listen to this son.""

It's too risky!

How long has the new banknotes appeared, there have already been counterfeits, if the imperial court will replace the taxes in kind and all kinds of miscellaneous taxes for treasure money.After that, as long as similar people master the new process of making treasure money, won't the tax revenue of the dynasty collapse directly?

”"What's more, the tax in kind is the fundamental, when I am in trouble, the treasure money is nothing more than paper, cotton clothes can survive the winter, and food can be satisfied!""

If only these miscellaneous taxes and taxes in kind could be exchanged for treasure money.After that, can my Ming grain's money also be exchanged for treasure money?

”"The treasure money is so single, it's just a matter of saying it here today, if this word gets out, how many people will laugh at a little ignorance?

Brag unblushingly!

”Speaking of this, Li Xiyan was already a little angry."

It's just a lie!"

He has a strong temperament, and under anger, he dares to say anything, "The minister can already think that in the future, I will not even collect food, and the devil will be stunned, and all of them will fall into the treasure money."

Then the people covered their own food one after another, you asked for treasure money to give you treasure money, the people imitated it, and there was even an outflow of officials!

”"If this continues, my Ming government can't even guarantee the most basic money and food.""

Besides, this treasure money was originally paid by the government, so what's the use of taking back a pile of broken paper?

What about grain?

What about the cloth?

What about cotton?

Without these things, it would be starvation and freezing to death!

Can I get to that point?

”Swish!

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Jing next to him was taken aback.It means something, the outflow of treasure money, isn't it Su Xian's father Su Guiyuan?"

Your Majesty, the old minister thinks so too."

At this time, even Liu Sanwu slowly spoke.His eyes are vicissitudes, he has lived for nearly sixty years, through the heyday of the Yuan Dynasty, but also through the decline period."

Lao Chen's eyes have seen many things, and what Su Xian said is feasible when you think about it.But the problem is exactly what Mr.

Li said, turning the tax bill into treasure money is too risky!

”"Your Majesty must know one thing, my Ming food is not enough to eat.""

Winters have gotten colder and colder over the years."

Liu Sanwu pointed to the cotton clothes he was wearing, "The old minister is loved by the saints, so the aging body still has thick cotton clothes to protect from the cold, but the guards of the northern defense, is not everyone there?"

”"Can everyone who ploughs the fields be clothed?""

Nope!

None of them!

”"The fundamental tax in kind is to protect the daily needs of my Ming Dynasty.It is to maintain the money, food and armor of the officers and soldiers at the grassroots level. ”"It's not as Su Xian said, in order to reduce the loss, you have to give up the basics, pull boxes of banknotes, and shuttle through my Daming place and center."

He shook his head, completely disagreeing with this matter, "It's just shocking, unbelievable!"

”"Not to mention, the old man can even see that if this so-called fiscal tax can really be collected instead of grain and grass in the future, I am afraid that it will be the day when my great disaster will come!"

The two gentlemen said so, and Zhu Biao couldn't help but shake his head secretly.None of these words are true.They know better than anyone what the national situation is."

Your Majesty!"

Li Xiyan simply stopped hiding it, "The minister will simply pick on Ming Su Xian's young age, and he may not think too much."

There is no need to guess the reason why he said this, that is, to increase the value of the treasure banknote, and then want His Majesty to retry his father's case!

”If it was a metaphor just now, now it's a clarity.Sure enough, others also looked at it and suddenly realized it in their hearts.Zhu Yuanzhang also frowned and looked at Su Xian.He didn't know anything else.But the retrial of his father's case is normal in the eyes of others.But in the eyes of those who know the inside story, it is nonsense.But.These two gentlemen are also right, the reason why it is a tax in kind is precisely because money is too thin.Not to mention that they don't believe it, it is Zhu Yuanzhang himself, although he has unlimited expectations for the treasure banknote, but he has never thought of tying the risk to the treasure banknote.Su Xian was also a little helpless in his heart.He still underestimated that when a new strategy spanning nearly two hundred years suddenly appeared in front of him, it would be shocking.He did not answer Li Xiyan's questioning.Instead, he continued: "What Mr.

Li said is right, the lifeblood of the country lies in food!"

”"It's good to know!"

Li Xiyan said."

But I never said that the output of acres of land is also within this whip law.""

The imperial court collects grain or the original summer harvest, and the dynasty collects it twice a year, namely July and August and February and March of the next year, the former is mainly tax grain, and the latter is mainly miscellaneous taxes such as salt, tea, and cloth.""

Taxes and grain are as usual."

This is Su Xian's idea, "Every year, it is still transported to the treasury of the household department in various places, and finally it is calculated by the household department and reported to the center." ”"But taxes in kind and miscellaneous taxes can be analyzed."

Su Xian's voice paused, and then said slowly: "As for Mr. saying that I don't understand before, I want to say that Mr. doesn't understand." ”Li Xiyan was furious, "You!

”"Sir, from a clan?"

Su Xian asked directly.Li Xiyan was silent at first, and then nodded, "Yes!"

”"So I read poetry and books, and I can rank among the great Confucians at an age when I am not confused, I am afraid that there has never been a day when I have no food and no clothes, right?"

Hearing Su Xian ask like this, Li Xiyan himself smiled, "Do you have it?"

”Su Xian spread his hands and said: "I'm not so exaggerated, but there are poor days."

Even before my father was appointed to the Jiupin Inspection School, it was common for him to go hungry and full, and I also heard that my great-grandfather once took my grandfather and father from Shaanzhou to Huguang, and then came from Huguang to Yingtian, but survived from the starvation. ”"As for the people, what exactly they need, I know better than my husband."

That's all that is said and done.Su Xian no longer looked at Li Xiyan, but at Zhu Yuanzhang.To say this kind of insight, Zhu Yuanzhang knows much better than himself.Really.When he looked at it, the latter immediately glared, "What do you think we're doing?"

”"I just wanted to ask the saint a word.""

When Your Majesty was young, copper coins of the same value and silk of the same value were placed in Your Majesty's "nonsense!

”Zhu Yuanzhang said speechlessly: "Of course it's copper coins." ”"Why?"

Su Xian asked.Zhu Yuanzhang glared, "What else, let's take the money and feed our stomachs first."

None of you have ever tasted hunger, it is the flesh in your stomach that is pulled together, and you want to gnaw on the bark of the tree. ”Su Xian asked, "Why don't you want silk?"

Is it because you don't keep warm?

”"Boy, can you eat silk?

Besides, you have to eat enough to keep out the cold!

”Su Xian asked again: "Then what if it is grain of the same value and the corresponding money?"

”"Of course it's food!""

There are two more questions, first, why doesn't Your Majesty exchange silk for money, and second, why doesn't Your Majesty take money to buy grain?"

As soon as this remark came out.Zhu Yuanzhang even thought that this kid was joking with himself, where did he come from so much.But he soon reacted."

Can you get the same money for silk?

Take it to the silk village, can it be the same price to sell and buy?

Half of the troubled times and famines, half of them are good!

”"In the same way, food is hard currency!

For example, today's grain price, one tael of silver and ten catties of grain, in a few days it may become five catties, you calculate this account, fools will calculate!

”Su Xian said helplessly: "But Mr.

Li won't count." ”"Su Xianling!"

Li Xiyan was furious.I wanted to say more, but I saw that Su Xian had already spoken, "Sir, your question is here." ”Well?

Li Xiyan was stunned.Zhu Biao couldn't help but raise his head and look at Su Xian."

What is he talking about?"

Princess Chongning was confused.Princess Yan said slowly: "It's a very simple thing, food is always the first place in the eyes of the people.Next is money. ”"After all, food, like money, must be eaten after the last meal.When money is spent, it must be earned. ”"On the other hand, cotton clothes for winter, in fact, many people, a piece of clothing can be worn for ten years, it is the least, and it is common for twenty Chinese New Year's Eve years.""

Money is more valuable than before!"

Xu Miaoyun said, and suddenly sighed lightly, "I already know, I'm really smart!"

”"Has Mr.

Li figured it out?"

Su Xian said again: "Taxes in kind and miscellaneous taxes will be exchanged for fiscal taxes." ”"To some extent, it's not that my Daming tax system is more singular, but a real tax increase!""

After all, in the case of silk alone, there are good and bad, cheap and valuable.And the market situation is different every year, so when paying to the imperial court, if the merchant bribes the levy of the errand servant, the poor should be good, and the inferior should be the best grade. ”"Ask sir, is this a loss or a gain?""

It's the same with other objects!""

In addition, there is one of the most important reasons why the treasure money was set to unify all kinds of miscellaneous taxes and taxes in kind, in addition to replacing the people's collection and civil settlement with the official settlement."

Seeing that everyone looked over one after another, even Zhu Yuanzhang was puzzled.Su Xian said: "Let the tax system of Daming be more reasonable, and stimulate the subjective initiative of the people!"

”The first half of the sentence can still be understood.But in the second half of the sentence, everyone was confused."

Taxes in kind and miscellaneous taxes, the collection standards are not transparent, some people are shoddy, the imperial court can not fully find out, and invisibly, a lot of tax revenue has also been lost.""

And exchange it for money, and then you can set a levy standard based on their profits.""

In this way, whether it is a wealthy private household or a businessman from all over the country, they have their own collection system."

When Su Xian said this, he paused slightly.The expropriation system will be discussed later.Next, that's what he wants to say."

As Mr.

Li just said, the banknotes were originally sent out by the imperial court, and a pair of waste paper was recovered.""

It seems that Mr.

Li doesn't care about the previous treasure money reform, so it seems that it is not good to read too many books."

Such-for-tat words came out of Su Xian's mouth, which immediately made Li Xiyan angry.But Su Xian didn't care about this, after all, the change of the treasure money had happened before, and his sudden sentence also made Su Xian irritable."

For the imperial court, collecting taxes is not just as simple as getting money, but more importantly" "Mutual benefit, let the people continue to create wealth!"

”"What Daming wants to do is to make the treasure money a link and circulation between the court and the people, this is the credibility that was said at the beginning!""

If it is according to Mr.

Li, then print it yourself and play with it.And the most important point is that since the imperial power does not go to the countryside, the treasure money can always go to the countryside, right?

”"Take the law as the left hand and regulate the people's bottom line, but the process is too slow!""

But if you take the treasure money as your right hand, you will win the hearts of the people!

This is the sword. ”"If it is used properly, why is there any need for forced labor?

Why do we need to impose responsibility on the rich and grain chiefs who are currently set?

”"Everyone in the world is profitable!""

Da Ming himself will do this profit!""

If you really want to succeed" Su Xian looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, "Treasure money can win thousands of troops!"

Win tens of thousands of officials!
