Chapter 384
In the spacious and luxurious bedroom, the spring atmosphere that had just become full of spring suddenly disappeared without a trace, and the whole room became quiet.
Zhang Yan's pretty face turned from red to white, she lowered her head slightly, and she felt sad for a moment, and tears in her eyes almost slid out.
She didn't expect that she finally had the courage to pluck up the courage and refused regardless of her shameless plea. After thinking about the reason carefully, she understood it.
It is precisely because I figured out the reason that I became even more sad and helpless. After all, I was just a plaything.
This was the first time that Qin Yu saw her showing such a miserable look, and his heart suddenly became soft.
He said he couldn't bear it, but he probably didn't have any man to bear it. He wanted to agree, but he was worried that once the punch was opened, he would be out of control.
After giving birth to one, he would definitely want to give birth to two more. Zhang Yan started, and it was definitely not easy for other women to refuse. In the end, they were busy giving birth to children and compete for favor. Who would do his job?
Thinking of this, I forced myself to put my heart on my arms, and comforted her softly: "Sister Yan, don't worry, even if I become the emperor in the future, I will always spoil you. In the future, you will be the biggest in the harem and will never let you be as lonely as before..."
After coaxing for a long time, who would have thought that Zhang Yan would never speak silently, and she would no longer beg, and would no longer be red when she was teased as before. Instead, her eyes were a little lost and she leaned against Qin Yu's chest like that. She felt sorrowful than her heart was dying.
Seeing her attitude and reaction, Qin Yu lost interest in seeking pleasure. He just hugged her and slept for a while. After she fell asleep, he sighed, got up and left the bedroom, and walked towards the courtyard on the side.
In the yard, Li Wan'er and Xiao Xinru sat on stone benches, supporting their chins, as if they were lost. When they saw Qin Yu walking in, they were surprised and happy, so they quickly got up to meet them.
The three of them chatted in the yard until dark, mostly about Wuchang and the Xiao family. Li Wan'er was fine, but Xiao Xinru wanted to go back to Wuchang immediately.
"Madam, I will stay in Xiangyang for at most half a month this time, and I will go back to Wuchang to preside over the imperial examination. Then you can go with me. As for the college, I will leave it to Wan'er. Anyway, she can stand alone."
Qin Yu naturally knew that she missed her family and said with a smile. Mrs. Li was naturally very happy, but Li Wan'er refused and hugged Qin Yu's arm and whispered: "Brother Xiaoyu, I haven't seen my grandfather for many years, and I want to go with me, okay?"
"This...you're going to the Lady Academy, what should I do? There is also supervision on money and food, why not next time."
Qin Yu felt a little embarrassed, but actually wanted to send her away.
Mrs. Li's face turned slightly red, she secretly glanced at Qin Yu, lowered her head, and obviously guessed Qin Yu's thoughts.
"Well, Wan'er listens to Brother Xiaoyu."
"Brother Xiaoyu, it's a bit of a problem for me to find Sister Lan'er. You can talk to your mother."
Although Li Wan'er was a little disappointed, she still nodded obediently, then stood up and found an excuse to leave.
"Haha, madam, Wan'er has indeed grown up and is becoming more and more sensible." As soon as Li Wan'er left the yard, Qin Yu hugged Xiao Xinru and laughed.
"Young Master..."
Mrs. Li was startled and looked back nervously. Seeing that her daughter had gone away, she glared at him with anger.
"Madam, this place is too dangerous, let's go to the house to chat!" Qin Yu was also worried that Li Wan'er would shoot her back, so he picked her up in the waist and walked into the room.
That girl is so weird now that he can't even see through it.
For three days, Qin Yu rewarded his concubines in the harem, and the civil servants were also tactful and did not come to the palace to pay homage. It was not until the fourth day that Qin Yu held a grand court meeting, and this time there were as many as hundreds.
After all departments reported on the situation in the past few months, Qin Yu announced many matters in government affairs. Obviously, he had a rough plan in his mind when he was in Wuchang.
The State Council has performed well in the past few months, so Qin Yu plans to transfer the political affairs of the Great Qin State to the State Council.
In the future, the Office of the Internal Affairs will only be responsible for commercial banks, banks, and education, and all other matters will be responsible for the Government Affairs Council.
The arsenals are still under the jurisdiction of the Military and Political Court. As for the mine iron smelting plant and the industrial area on the north bank, they are private property of the royal palace, so they are still managed by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The stall is getting bigger and bigger, and it is definitely not possible to be separated from public and private.
The wives of the towns of Nanyang, Xiangyang and Yunyang, Qin Yu will draw them back one after another and go to other prefectures in Huguang to be the mayors. As for the women rescued from Kaifeng and Runing, they will go to various counties to serve as shopkeepers of banks and commercial banks.
For those prefectures and counties that took the initiative to open their doors to offer surrenders, the landlords and gentry in the country can still retain their own property and land, but they can only collect 50% of the land rent, and 10% of them will be used to pay agricultural taxes. Moreover, all the IOUs of the people will be invalidated. In the future, no one except banks likes usury.
All the maids and servants in the mansion must be recorded and reported to the government, pay taxes according to the head, each person will have one tael of silver per year, and these matters will be supervised by the wife of the mayor who sent them.
In the future, each county will implement the separation of powers, the county magistrate will manage civil affairs, the county magistrate will manage military affairs, and the judge will be responsible for judging cases. In addition, Qin Yu of each county will also send a wife envoy to supervise the implementation of various policies of the Great Qin State and accept reports.
In other words, the main work of these ladies in the future is to supervise, act as Qin Yu's eyes and propaganda officers, go to various towns to check and balance the gentry and landlords, and promote the national policies and related laws of the Great Qin State to the local people.
Of course, Qin Yu would not let those gentry and landlords go so simply, and would treat them differently.
Each county will select a landlord with the worst reputation to search the house and destroy the family. All the males will be killed, all the female relatives will be sent to the Jiaofangsi. The other landlords and gentry will also hand over their daughters of appropriate age and go to Lady College to serve as teachers.
After the officials are in place, the Qin State will officially collect taxes, which will be implemented by the Taxation Department. The taxes will be divided into agricultural tax, commercial tax and capitol tax.
The agricultural tax is worth ten to two, and all land within the territory of the Great Qin State must be paid, and all agricultural taxes must be paid to the Ministry of Revenue.
Commercial tax will temporarily only collect business tax, 70% will be handed over to the Ministry of Revenue, 30% will be used for office funds for each government office, and all the cap tax will be owned by each county, acting as the official's annual maintenance fee. As for salary, the Ministry of Revenue will be unified in the time being and distributed to banks.
As the policy was read out, the civil servants were so excited that they almost cried. Qian Bin's body trembled even more. After so long, he finally got over it. The State Council is no longer just a slut and can finally collect taxes.
