Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty One Another Year on the New Year's Eve

Yu Qiu found that since she woke up, her wives have been looking at her with suspicion. Could it be that she has not paid the public food for a long time and they suspect that there is someone outside?

Soon, Yu Qiu denied this speculation.

Because in the past, I had basically never taken the initiative to take the initiative to take Bai Feng, and even if I were to persuade everyone, I would accept it.

They are looking at themselves with a research attitude, just like when Sun Simiao saw an unseen medicinal herb. This feeling is very bad.

In fact, many of the things Yu Qiu did cannot withstand repeated scrutiny. If you think about it carefully, you will find many loopholes.

Not to mention the origin of the big black cows, they are the villa where they are now, and the various high-yield fruit trees or crops planted in the entire Xia Kingdom, all of which suddenly emerged. They were not secret industries left to him by Lu, or in other words, those sent by his masters to him.

The girls didn't think much about it before, but now they think about it, but they have many doubts.

However, they did not guess Yu Qiu's courage. Anyway, the more magical the power Yu Qiu mastered, the better it was for them.

Yu Qiu, who is obviously not treated as a normal person, has been a little depressed recently. Zhang Xier has asked him many stupid questions indirectly these days, such as why he doesn't look old at all.

For example, if he doesn't eat, will he not starve to death?

Yu Qiu was a little amused when asked.

Yu Qiu couldn't explain why he shaved his beard and looked no different from that of more than ten years ago.

This year's Spring Festival is the time when Yu Qiu's family is reunited most. Several girls and their children live in the villa, as well as Hanzi and Datou's wife and children.

Yu Qiu not only took a few children to skate on the ice surface of the reservoir, but also used the snow to build up many snowmen in the yard of the villa.

In addition to not taking the children to do anything to study, Yu Qiu was also a happy New Year with the children.

Zhang Xier or Li Xiuning, who was hoping that Yu Qiu could teach his children a few tricks, was disappointed to ask that on the Lantern Festival, he went to the Arc de Triomphe Square to watch the fireworks party to make up for his lost mood.

Yu Qiu did not refuse. Yu Qiu obviously had differences with the children in their education. He believed that children under the age of seven need more to play, rather than forcibly learning some knowledge that they cannot use or understand now.

Since Yu Qiu will be here for this year's fireworks party, the State Council organized the colorful fireworks that covered the sky for an hour. After setting off the large fireworks, Yu Qiu, Li Shimin and the kings personally came to play iron flowers, which made the people of Xia Kingdom happily watch it for half an evening.

"Once upon a time, such a lively scene also appeared in my dreams, but I didn't want you to realize it in advance." Li Shimin and Yu Qiu, who were tired of playing, sat on the roadside stalls that the people temporarily set up on the roads on both sides of the Arc de Triomphe Square, while eating sweet dumplings, while sighing.

"Everything, when done to the extreme, will have some unexpected benefits, and so will it be for the people. Everyone is happy, and you can't do it or not." Yu Qiu, who was in a good mood, swallowed a dumpling.

"I only realized today that the principle of knowing shame with enough granaries is so correct. The rich are indeed easier to manage than the poor. To govern the country, as long as the people become rich, most problems can be solved.

So, next year I plan to reduce taxes to make the people richer." Li Shimin answered again.

"After the policies of various countries are synchronized with the Xia Kingdom, the land tax will no longer exist worldwide. If you want to reduce taxes, you can only reduce the industrial and commercial tax.

However, as you reduce, you will find that your fiscal revenue will increase, because, according to the current macro conditions, tax cuts are actually a stimulus to the economy, and the development of industry and commerce still have huge potential that has not exploded." Yu Qiu smiled.

"Is that so? As far as I know, the fiscal and tax surplus of Xia State this year is as high as 80 million jin. This is the net surplus after removing all expenses. If you said that the money will accumulate more and more in the future, will there be any problem?" Li Shimin said in confusion.

"Of course there will be problems. With more money, the government needs to face the problem of how to spend money. At present, Xia State still needs to invest in many large-scale infrastructure projects, and the surplus of 80 million yuan is nothing. In the future, when the infrastructure is fully completed, it will have to spend money in other aspects.

For example, let the whole people see a doctor completely free, let all the elderly receive a retirement pension for enough daily life, give people who have lost their jobs, have the lowest living security, give all people who are injured in the accident, have certain living subsidies, and even directly pay money to the people to reduce their living burden." Yu Qiu smiled.

"Just send money to the people directly?" Li Shimin said in disbelief.

Not collecting agricultural taxes from the people has been a tradition that Xia State has overturned thousands of years, and has also given money to the people. Isn’t this prove that the tax policies of the past thousands of years have been wrong?

"Yes, this year, Xia Guo plans to give farming subsidies to the people, at least 100 yuan per mu of land per year. He is also preparing to give home appliance subsidies, agricultural locomotive subsidies, and various breeding subsidies to the people, so that the people can get a financial subsidy when buying home appliances, tractors, cars, poultry and livestock breeding. The taxes contributed by the people should be used on the people. Since you have promoted the synchronization of the countries in the alliance with the Xia Kingdom's political system, you must keep up with this policy!" Yu Qiu said with a smile.

"Your Xia Kingdom has only a population of three million, and more than 20 million acres of arable land cannot make up much money. There are now more than 20 million people under the rule of our court, and nearly 400 million acres of arable land. How can you subsidize it?" Li Shimin said in a daze.

Yu Qiu smiled and said, "If you have subsidies, you can take out a loan if you don't have enough money! When you start paying money to farmers with the largest base, you will find that there are many benefits that will emerge."

"There are many benefits?" Li Shimin grabbed the scalp and couldn't react for a while. He planned to ask his own secretary as soon as possible after he went back. If it didn't work, he would have to prepare some gifts and ask several of the great economists in Xia Guo.

As for the kings of other countries around, they were even more unthinkable.

In their opinion, things that spend more money can only happen in Xia Kingdom.

However, Fang Xuanling, who had been in Xia Kingdom for the longest time, had roughly understood what Yu Qiu meant.

When consumers expand to everyone, industry and commerce will definitely explode again, creating a lot of taxes for the country and allowing more farmers to create industrial value while farming.

Letting more people join production and consumption and expand the labor and consumer market is the basis for promoting the overall economic improvement.

But what he couldn't understand was how to control this degree. He believed that the great economist of Xia Kingdom must have a set of calculation formulas that can obtain specific data and control the intensity of subsidies and support.

"Today, you know roughly what factors a developed and prosperous country needs to have, complete infrastructure construction, certain national cultural qualities, a complete demand supply industrial chain, and a rich reserve material.

Since the direction is already here, what you need to do is do things. We can first regard ten years as a stage. In ten years, I hope to take planes, or even trains or cars when I go to all parts of the world.

I said that, you may not understand it yet. At this stage, your infrastructure must be built to the extent that there are airports, railways, and highways.

When you complete these infrastructure construction and are free from the outside world, you can say goodbye to poverty and hunger.

When your citizens have culture and knowledge, they will have the ability to help you build a complete supply and demand industrial chain. At that time, you will be not far from being rich.

When the supply and demand industrial chain is built, all you need is accumulation and reserves. At this stage, general problems will no longer hinder you. Once you have accumulated enough, you will be rich.

Of course, infrastructure construction is also constantly upgrading. For example, in Xiaguo, we first completed the construction of roads, railways and airports. Don’t increase efficiency to the top. Our construction will not stop at any step. What we want to build next is the network.

Ten years later, countries that you don’t have a network may be far behind our Xia Kingdom.” Seeing that all the kings were there, Yu Qiu remembered his own system tasks and deliberately brought the topic to the topic.

"The Internet? What is this?" Li Shimin and others said with a confused look on their faces.

"A high-tech product, now it can only be said to be a concept product. After our satellite base launches a few more satellites, it will be released." Yu Qiu replied.

"Can you describe this 'network' to us?" Li Shimin asked.

“In short, it is something that can bring everyone closer.

For example, if you are in Chang'an and I am in Mingjing, you want to show me a document, or show me some pictures, and meet me, you just need to use a computer connected to the Internet or a smartphone that we may launch in the future, which can be achieved instantly.

When all regions under the rule of the court covered the Internet, then you can instantly know what happened anywhere under your rule, so as to make immediate orders to deal with it. Do you think it is powerful?" Yu Qiu asked them with a smile.

"It's really amazing to know what happened under the rule immediately and deal with it immediately." Li Shimin said with a serious expression.

If it were as Yu Qiu said, the ruler's control over the rule would reach a very high level, and there would be almost no internal rebellion in the future.

"So, in the future, network construction will be the top priority for our Xia Kingdom's development. Maybe everyone needs to use the Internet in their daily life, or even inseparable from the Internet." Yu Qiu said with a smile.

"Everyone needs to use it? Wouldn't that be very profitable?" Li Shimin reacted first before many kings and asked Yu Qiu.

Yu Qiu nodded and said, "It's really profitable, but it's also very expensive. It requires a lot of investment to achieve full coverage of the network."

"You don't have to worry about investing a lot! You Xia State has money. Our court has human resources and needs. If you have a need, we can work together. Maybe we can build a large group company again!" Li Shimin said very positively.

Upon hearing this, Yu Qiu nodded with a very heart-warming expression and said, "We can really make it together."

"It's up to you if you say this. Please explain what's next. I'll make arrangements for you." Li Shimin didn't pay attention to Fang Xuanling's eyes and said with great care.

Yu Qiu nodded and said, "That's all. You can count the statistics of people who are interested in investing in this project. I will find a few students at Mingshan Academy to take the lead and build a project group to do the technical research and development work of capital raising first."

Without waiting for Li Shimin to answer, the kings around him who were sitting and eating dumplings raised their hands and spoke up that they were willing to join the project.

Yu Qiu smiled and expressed her welcome to join, and told them a lot of the prospects of the Internet, and verbally agreed to open up and let them invest in this project.

We played until the second half of the night, and the festival party ended. On the way back, Fang Xuanling and Li Shimin walked together and said to Li Shimin, "Your Majesty, don't you think that the network project Yu Qiu mentioned is a big pit? According to my estimate, this may be a project with huge investment and great importance, but it cannot make much money, because in the past, Yu Qiu did not do so generously. Yu Qiu must have the majority of the project to make money."

"I know what you said, but I think that even if this network engineering project is not profitable, as long as Yu Qiu does it, we have to do it.

Past lessons tell us that even Yu Qiu is willing to lose money, there must be great benefits. What he said is to bring people closer, pass documents or information in real time, and sell goods to the world in one place. These functions are too powerful and important." Li Shimin spread his hands.

He thought about it and felt that a world with an Internet is so beautiful. Only by connecting this Internet and as a ruler can he truly rule the world.

"But we also have to calculate the issue of investment and return. In the past, Xia Guo did such low-investment and high-income projects, but he did too many." Since Li Shimin knew that this investment might be a pit, but he still insisted on doing it, then he had the reason he wanted to do it. Fang Xuanling stood from the perspective of planning for Li Shimin's investment and income.

"The investment and income are not calculated in this way. Xia State has only a population of 3 million, with a radius of 500 miles. Yu Qiu made the Internet just to lay a radius of 500 miles and rule three million people. But we have a population of more than 20 million, with a radius of thousands of miles. Therefore, we invest more and use more people, and use more in the future, and provide more convenience for us, and we will make money." Li Shimin explained to Fang Xuanling.

After thinking about it, Fang Xuanling felt that Li Shimin's words were fine. He just felt that Li Shimin's heart might hurt when he received the investment list from the project team.

On the way back, Yu Qiu talked to Li Xiuning and other girls about Li Shimin's arrival, and praised him for his improvement in recent years. He was a person with long-term vision and dared to take the initiative to step into the pit of Internet investment.
