Chapter 666 What is the land in the world?

If Wang Ju was an ordinary state governor in other states, he should avoid it now.

Of course, if he was really an ordinary governor, Zhang Xiaobao would not say that, after all, he was also the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. This is how officials of the Tang Dynasty were, and they could be promoted or surrendered.

Unlike Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan at that time, officials either made too many mistakes, and there was no one above, or the people above could not be saved, so they would be dismissed, and in serious cases they would be sentenced.

Most of them will not encounter such situations. Someone will protect them and eliminate some evidence of crimes and push the responsibility to the officials below. There will be two situations: one is to transfer to an important position and move to a leisurely place, and the other is to go down first and wait for the opportunity to come up.

Compared with the two hatchbacks, Zhang Xiaobao felt that the Tang Dynasty system was better, so that officials had no luck, and even if they didn’t have a good position, they could still get into other positions at the same level.

The protection of officials can only be said that the leader’s own power is not large enough. There is a problem with the entire system, which promotes the officials’ ** in disguise.

What Zhang Xiaobao is thinking, Li Longji, Wang Ju and Gao Lishi are not clear. The three of them only know that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan have just promoted the adjustment of the Tang Dynasty tax rate, and have not been fully implemented. They are in "negotiation" with people from various aristocratic families, to be precise, exchange of interests.

Only when the main characters agree can they get it on the table, and then there is no need to worry that others will unite to oppose it.

Wang Ju was also a person who was talked about in this regard. Gao Lishi had sent a telegram before. Anyone whose total property in his family reached more than 3 million guan, Gao Lishi would send a telegram to communicate with the other party.

The exchange condition that can be taken now is the railway's transportation goods distribution rights, which is what Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan said when giving an example.

Because the railway is being built using the Great Leap Forward model, it can give rich people a specific comparison. As long as they are not too stupid, they will agree.

One is that the profit is indeed very high and the power is very high. The other is that if others agree all of them and they don’t agree, it seems... with their own strength, they will only suffer greater losses in the end. At that time, the court will not even give it a chance to exchange interests, so what else can it cause?

In this way, Gao Lishi's work went smoothly. As for Zhang Xiaobao's later methods, let alone other aristocratic families and big merchants, if Zhang Xiaobao didn't say it, even Gao Lishi and Li Longji would not have thought that the exchange of interests would eventually be a trap.

Who would have thought that trains would have to increase a lot of trains? And using another new technology can speed up the operation several times? Who would have thought that the proportion of taxes that increased revenues would be increased, and the court would use it to curb the subsidies for others to bear losses after they had the right to distribute railway goods?

Thinking of this, Gao Lishi began to worry about his godson and said, "Xiaobao, you... your previous work has not been completed yet, and you immediately launched land. Land is the foundation of human beings. At that time, the whole world will oppose you. Do you really force Your Majesty to give you military power in a few places?

In addition to part of the court, the exchange of interests in the railways has more of a share of your family. Do you plan to give up the land? Your family does not seem to have much land."

Before Zhang Xiaobao answered, Wang Ju said in surprise: "The tax increase was a sacrifice to the interests of my grandson? If I had known this... I would have been useless. My family is not worth three million yuan in total assets now, but the development of the Tang Dynasty cannot bully my grandson, right?"

Wang Ju said this at the risk of becoming alienated from the emperor just now. He did not know the word "principle", but he knew how he should choose. For his own interests, what he gave up family affection today and may give up the country tomorrow.

Wang Juan was very satisfied with Wang Ju's words. The thing she knew best was the disaster that happened a hundred years ago between her and Zhang Xiaobao. Some officials knew that their children were buried under him, but did not go to save them, but temporarily placed them there to save others.

As a result, his child died, but what did that official get? His selflessness, which included selfishness, was just promoted by the media, and then he would never think of any further development in his life. It was impossible to go up. Even if things were over, he would be transferred from an important position immediately.

Because the officials above him were also heartbroken. Today, in order to develop upward, you can even ignore your own relatives. What about me tomorrow? Promote you? Dream.

Wang Juan was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Grandfather, our family will soon have three million guan. Sea cabbage can be raised. You can circle it and raise it in large quantities. Xiaobao will then introduce a series of ways to eat it, as well as advertising in newspapers and free advertising.

It is not that we specifically promote our sea cabbage, but also help other places with sea cabbage to promote it together. The purpose is to let the people of the Tang Dynasty know that eating this thing can prevent diseases.

Prices will rise, but they are controllable, just like sea salt. Each place has the highest sales price control and cannot rise at will. With the improvement of water transportation and railway networks, many mainlanders can also eat seafood.

The trouble now is the road and bridge construction. The main reason is that Xiaobao and I don’t know how to design the bridge. It’s not that we just took out the cannons and put them on the bridge pier. Otherwise, there would be no bridge made of iron cables on the bridge pier on the Yangtze River. The iron cables and trains would not be able to pass through the bridge pier on the Yangtze River."

Wang Juan's words were considered as giving Wang Ju a reassurance. It seemed that everyone in the Tang Dynasty knew that with Xiaobao's business, it would be impossible to lose money. Unless the breeding and planting industries encountered natural disasters, but natural disasters would not come every year.

Wang Ju's lips curled up and said with a smile: "I thought I didn't have to pay more taxes, but I didn't expect it. I still can't escape, hey~!"

"You are still good at getting a bargain." Li Longji said to Wang Ju. He didn't care how much benefit Zhang Xiaobao gave Wang Ju. It was his own business.

As a result, Wang Ju said, "The share of Zhang and Wang families in railway transportation has been squeezed out. However, they have a lot of income in other aspects, and the materials for building trains are not very good, at least they cannot meet the standards required by Xiaobao and Juanjuan.

There are always all kinds of minor problems. Industry is in their hands. When trains and railways are maintained, those who have obtained the right to ration must pay.

What's more, most of the industries of Zhang and Wang families are developed based on local resources, and there are few additional transportations. If transportation really requires transportation, it is generally to transport civilian resources to the affected areas and balance the prices of goods in a certain place.

When encountering this situation, they can compete for the share of other people's carriages at any time. Others have no right to agree or not. Tell me about the land. Xiaobao, what price do you plan to pay for exchange?"

Listening to Li Longji's words, Zhang Xiaobao curled his lips: "I can't understand that the land policy of the Tang Dynasty is beneficial to the people of the Tang Dynasty. Why should I bring out the benefits in the end?"

"Because I have been listening to you two for action. What do you say you do? After I ask clearly, I will agree to you and help you. It's like you two are playing table tennis there. I am responsible for setting the ball for you and handing you the shot. The ball and the case are my, but the hole you two have the final say.

Could it be that you two were playing with the pool, and they asked me to help throw the ball into the bag? You didn’t touch the connecting rods for a while, and didn’t use any strength, just talking with your mouth?"

Li Longji gave an example. Wang Ju was confused when he heard this. What a mess? What about state affairs? How did he have something to do with billiards?

Gao Lishi, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan understood it. Li Longji meant that you two regarded the Tang Dynasty as you two? Then you two would just take care of your ideas.

"Uh! It's true... right?" Zhang Xiaobao turned his head and asked Wang Juan. Wang Juan nodded. She admitted that she and Zhang Xiaobao did this. The ideal of the two is not to make a lot of money, but to build the Tang Dynasty into what they think.

Therefore, no one is allowed to stand in front, and at some point they are very strong, with a belief and momentum of killing gods and demons.

In this case, what Li Longji said is right. Since the two of them regard the Tang Dynasty as their own, they cannot distinguish their own family and the Tang Dynasty's great masters when there is a profit.

Seeing that the two of them had a unified attitude, Li Longji said: "Since you are playing, you have to bear the price of losing. I will also have to accompany you to bear it. You should be serious when you are serious, don't consider a little money. After all, sometimes you don't have a game to play for you, right?"

"Are you?" Zhang Xiaobao was speechless by Li Longji.

"So tell me, how do you do the land?" Li Longji asked.

"Of course it's replaced. I went directly to collect it, but people didn't agree. If we expand outward, we will have more land. Tell them that if the land occupies a large area, one acre will be exchanged for five acres, or any rent will be exempted for thirty years. That is to say, they don't need to pay a penny for farming."

Zhang Xiaobao stretched out one finger, then stretched out five fingers.

"What if they don't exchange?" Li Longji asked again.

“No exchange?”

"Yes, the land elsewhere is too far away from their homes, so why do you need to look far away? They can continue to annex the surrounding land. Can you kill people?" Li Longji sneered as if he represented a group with a lot of land.

Zhang Xiaobao also sneered: "Who will I kill? If I force them to death, I would rather pay a greater price to lower the price of grain. At that time, a bucket of millet costs two cents. I will see if it is cost-effective for them to farm?

They don’t want to plant land from other places. I will transport it back when the time comes. Even if I pay a penny for every bull sold, I will be willing. And hasn’t our Tang Dynasty already started to collect rent based on the acres of land?

I used the seeds provided by Sinong Temple, and then the Tang Dynasty increased the rent ratio. They couldn't object, because the Tang Dynasty increased the tax on income according to the situation of new seeds. The money they bought for seeds, and I finally made them unable to make even the money back.

Not to mention anything else, if I grow high-quality rice in the northern part of Hebei Road, once the price reaches the same level as here, they will not even want to sell their grain a pound. Not to mention two ripening a year, three ripening a year, they will have to put the grain into their hands."

Zhang Xiaobao's ruthless statement made Wang Ju and the other two shiver. They had eaten the rice they had just made and only cooked every year. This is still a variety that can be further improved. Sinong Temple is still very useful in recent years.

Wang Ju did know that the rice there was much better than the one here. It smelled when steamed and smelled. It tasted many times better than the one here. I didn’t know why before, but now I know it, it depends on the length of the maturity period.

If someone else said this, Li Longji would listen to it as a joke, but when Zhang Xiaobao said that, Li Longji had to take it seriously. He knew that when he really reached that level, Zhang Xiaobao would definitely do this.

When he thought the solution was feasible, Li Longji suddenly discovered the loophole and said, "Xiaobao, what about the people with land who have land? Aren't they finished?"

"Local people? Subsidies, subsidies according to the cap. Didn't the court already stipulate how much land each person gives? Moreover, officials are also calculated according to the grade. Since it has been stipulated, subsidies will be given to everyone according to the ownership of the land deed.

But the tenant farmers don’t give it because the land is not theirs. The maid doesn’t give it, so they release a new contract and sign it directly with the person with the land deed. If the court needs to use that piece of land, when it forcefully expropriates, the person who signed the contract will be sent to another place and then additional land subsidies will be given.

The key point is not the policy, but the person who implements the policy. Your Majesty, your inspection team must be strengthened. The expenses they spend during the inspection are really insignificant compared to the resources given by local officials who are not inspecting them.

It may cost a thousand guan for their patrols once, but if they do not patrol, the losses caused to the court by the local government are probably dozens or even millions of guan."

Zhang Xiaobao had already discussed this matter with Wang Juan. In fact, they had many ways to do it. They also knew that the people at that time also had too many ways to use it.

However, no matter what the method is, it must be implemented in the end. However, their situation at that time was not optimistic at all. There were relationships and countermeasures at all levels.

The reason for this situation is that no one is clean. Over the past hundred years, the people have developed a habit. When no one is an official, he says that officials are not good, and after he becomes an official, he will do the same thing. When he accuses others of having more women, he also wants to hug them.

That is the sinking of the times, that is the change of people's hearts, so it is useless to stick to a small number of people.

But the Tang Dynasty is different now. The Tang Dynasty still has the hearts of the people. The people of the Tang Dynasty still know that they are loyal to the emperor and patriotism. There are also few thieves in the Tang Dynasty. After being caught, they will not resist because they know what a loss is. If you save someone's life in the Tang Dynasty, they will lead the whole family to kowtow to thank him.

If science and technology had not developed fast enough, production technology was not developed enough, and weapons were more sharp, the society would have been abandoned at that time.

The most fundamental reason for all this is the development of science and technology. Other countries are developing faster, and the threat to a slow-moving country is not only about force, but also about the belief of the nation.

Therefore, what Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan need to do is to use the Tang Dynasty technology to bully others. As long as they are powerful enough, no matter how many people they kill, they can get a peace prize, as long as they are ready, they can first get the inside of the Tang Dynasty.

Both of them thought of this at this moment, looked at each other with a tacit understanding, and then smiled with relief.

Wang Juan kept this smile and followed Zhang Xiaobao's words: "At that time, even if others want to use tricks, their tenant farmers will not do it, because we will directly take the people elsewhere and then give subsidies. In this way, people who use tricks on the land will not dare to play, and want the tenant farmers to cheat with them. Once the tenant farmers know that they can take the opportunity to take advantage of the benefits, they will be a bamboo block and a waste of time."

"Oh, this trick is ruthless." Wang Ju said in surprise. He used to know that the two children in his son-in-law's family were amazing, and he also saw the development of the Tang Dynasty. He also got some information when contacting Li Longji.

However, today when he listened to what the two people said face to face, he realized that only at this time did he feel the deepest. It turned out that many national policies of the Tang Dynasty appeared in this way.

In this way, other officials in the court can only be a decoration, and they have no chance to follow the work and make decisions. Who would have thought of a series of things? Is this the legendary thinking training model of the students of Jianjia Academy?

After hearing many things, I find that they are very simple, but if others don’t say them, I will never think about this aspect, nor do I know how my grandson and daughter-in-law have learned the skills. It seems that I can do everything. Even if an ordinary child is really attracted by the two masters behind it, he probably won’t be able to learn one in ten. This must be extremely intelligent from a very young age.

Li Longji was not surprised at all. He was used to it. If the two of them couldn't say anything, he would be surprised.

Therefore, he nodded and said, "If you want to say the best point, it should be the method of continuous patrol personnel. I plan to send out a group of patrol personnel every month, and then add additional patrol personnel every quarter.

According to what you have mentioned all the time, if the previous group of patrolers did not find the problem, the next group went over and found the problem and found that it had already appeared at the time of the group, then the previous group of people... kill.

If everyone cannot find the problem and Xiao Bei and the others are caught, all the people in front will be exterminated. I will definitely not allow local officials to have problems, and just develop the habit.

As for the money paid for inspection, it is too little compared to the benefits of stable development. In this way, I agree to the land plan, and Lis is responsible for implementing it."

"Yes." Gorix agreed.

When Wang Ju heard that the matter was so easy to decide, he pondered the issue of the inspection and advised him: "Your Majesty, local officials have many means. The inspectors may not be able to see through it. Is it too heavy to directly exterminate the clan?"

"Serious? Not heavy, not heavy at all. I just chose people from the local area as patrol personnel. It has not been implemented for a long time and I have not made any effort. In the future, I will assess the people who are patrol and test them all kinds of methods. Whoever can propose a response method that cannot be solved will receive a lot of rewards.

For example, a county magistrate suddenly came up with a good idea. If others could not find out, I would issue an order to recruit capable people every month. As a county magistrate, as long as he tells his method, I will reward him with 20,000 yuan.

To deal with local officials, local officials must be used. Those who are usually selected to patrol, except for patrols, other tasks are just thinking about various means. You say, if you can't find any problem, wouldn't they be careful?"

Li Longji also expressed his plan and looked at Zhang Xiaobao proudly. Zhang Xiaobao had never told him such a safe way.

"Your Majesty, one thing is that this county magistrate gets more, so why would he be greedy? In the future, local officials will find that thinking about the means is worse than greedy for themselves, and they all think about the means."

Wang Ju is still worried.
To be continued...
