All kinds of changes in the monarch are based on the more taxes they can get.

The system in Song was quite chaotic.

Some people who teach double fields do not have techniques such as compost and deep cultivation, need to abandon one piece of land and cultivate the other piece to take turns.

Such double-field land will also be subject to tithing taxes, so it is called the second tax.

If there is a single-part land, tithing tax will be imposed, and you will also have to participate in the well-field system to work on public land with the number of private land. Nine households and one public household can also be regarded as tithing tax, so it is also a tithing tax.

There are also the original hemp tax, silk tax and other strange taxes.

The serfs under the aristocratic fiefs also need to bear certain labor obligations for the aristocrats, and they also need to be summoned as disciples to fulfill their military obligations when fighting.

Farmers who are not in the aristocratic fiefs will have to bear the taxes and taxes that will make them quite dissatisfied, as well as the labor of feeding military horses, riding carriages and oxes, which will make them suffer.

Whose land belongs to?

This is a question that cannot be explained clearly.

The emperor, duke, and marquis said that these lands belong to the emperor according to etiquette.

The emperor gave it to the princes, the princes gave it to the doctors, the doctors gave it to the scholars, and the scholars were then distributed to the farmers to farm.

Therefore, farmers must fulfill various obligations for their superiors, nominally in exchange for land.

Whose land belongs to?

If it were the Emperor of Zhou, then it would be unreasonable for the Mohist to change his private acres like this.

The Mo people are more rational, especially when debating with others.

The question of who land is has long been concluded within the Mozhe, and there is a complete unified opinion on where wealth comes from.

But this principle does not need to be explained to the public for the time being, but needs to be slowly instilled...

People can make success, but not know the beginning. It is not completely wrong to use it here. People’s demands on private acres are not a day or two.

However, private acres need iron tools and oxen plowing as support, so it is best to use a group of ten households to better deal with natural disasters.

Now that iron tools have appeared, the Song State is about to be in chaos, and the Mohist army is in full swing. If this kind of change is not made at this time, there will be fewer opportunities in the future.

Pei County is not a man of Mo in name, but still belongs to Song Gong, so the fu still needs to be collected.

However, this time, Mozhe went to Shangqiu to defend the city, and what he wanted was the control of taxes and taxes, so the tax would not be handed over to the hands of Song Gong in the end.

The nobles obtained fiefs with military obligations, and the Mos actually used the righteous army as military obligations in exchange for a whole fief.

However, because Song State was often beaten and it was difficult to hit others, it was in line with the Mohist concept of "not attacking, resisting unjust battles", and a small edge ball was played here.

If taxes and taxes remain unchanged, the people of Peiyi have already seen the reforms of the Mohist in the Jiafeng period with their own eyes, so they are extremely supportive of this reform of taxes, which is obviously beneficial to them.

Not to mention the other conditions, the fact that the Mohists want to tax the nobles from their private acres is enough to support the people.

A very simple algorithm, even the stupid farmer can know that the total amount of taxes remains unchanged, and the taxation of the nobles' private acres means that the taxes are also borne by those nobles, and there are fewer ones assigned to the remaining acres.

This kind of thing would be extremely difficult to do in a country even in the late Warring States Period. The famous Pingyuan Jun turned his face to the tax collector because of the taxation tax.

Furthermore, this involves the renting tax issues of renting farmers under the private acre system. Once taxes are imposed on the private acres of the nobles, it actually means taxing from the renting farmers. If this problem cannot be properly resolved, it is easy to incite a rebellion.

The ink master must guarantee five conditions before he dares to do this.

First, the situation in the world has changed, and the king’s eyes will not be placed on Peiyi within a few years.

Secondly, the military power of the Mohist was enough to suppress the nobles who might turn against each other.

Third, the Mo people were familiar with Peiyi enough and had enough "scholars" who could measure the land as basic officials.

Fourth, with sufficient financial support, when acknowledging that the nobles do not divide the land, it is guaranteed that the rented farmers on the nobles will not rebel, but will actively join the Mozhes and force the nobles to sell uncultivated private fields.

Fifth, the spread of the farming technology of the Mozhe, various experimental fields, and the yield per mu of the town pavilion can intuitively make the people of Peiyi believe that taxes are a policy that is beneficial to them and will not require much publicity to support them.

For this law and these five conditions, the Mozhe waited for two or three years, and now he finally waited for this opportunity. How could he miss it?

The ownership system is the basis of all changes, so once this is moved, the remaining supporting policies must be fully implemented.

After the quietness after the people cheered, the remaining changes that must be made began to be explained.

“The second is the change of weights and measures.”

"All pavilions in Pei County and its surrounding townships are prohibited from using the original weights and measures."

"Length, number of acres, area, weight, quantity... are all verified by Mozheshu's secretary, and the specific measurement items are in Peiguo Township."

"After that, taxes, land mu, etc. are paid; weekday transactions are all subject to new weights and measures."

"Abolish the weights and measures of the old rulers, cauldrons, beans, yi, dou, stone, and sheng, and unify them into the new weights and measures stipulated by the ink masters."

"All those who want to become officials must be familiar with the new weights and measures of Pei County."

"Third, the change of writing."

"From today, all official documents, acres, land deeds, and wealth deeds in Pei County will be written in the official script."

"Numbers are used in the numbers of official script and ink, which is convenient for the public to understand and understand."

"All officials who are not able to use documents proficiently will not be qualified to participate in the selection of talents."

"The fourth is labor."

"All the labourers will abolish the original physical military tax, and all military taxes will be purchased by taxes."

"Salt, iron, cotton and other products are sold by Peiyi."

"The rest of the items will be paid for one-thirty of the price of each item, and the specific amount of the tax will be promulgated and negotiated in five days."

"Pei County tax officials provide seal stamps, and use the seal stamp as a tax mark. Anyone without seal stamps will be considered tax evasion. In addition to the penalty for confiscation of the original property, one double the property will be collected."

"Those who stamp fake will be fined ten times."

"All items with seals can be sold in Peiyi."

“Fifth, commercial tax.”

"If the goods are stamped by Pei County, they do not need to be paid again."

"The items transported from other places will be subject to specific taxes and fees."

"Sixth, labor."

"All labor service is proposed by the Mohist, and the people of Pei County agree on whether to agree or not."

"If you agree, it may be labor or make money every day, and the specific amount will be negotiated after five days."

…………

It involves various changes in various industries in Pei County, and is spoken out from the right mouth, basically covering the entire Pei County in terms of taxation issues.

The low taxes for industry and commerce can appropriately allow some landless farmers who originally wanted to open fields to choose to become handicraftsmen or enter the workshop of the Mozhe to work.

The collection of indirect tax is just a form of the situation. The majority of the income of the Meghans in industry and commerce still comes from the workshops they have mastered, as well as huge profits of iron, wine and other goods.

The existence of the well-field system is the best result of adapting to the original low productivity, and is accompanied by a complete set of management models and military systems.

The Mozhe changed the land ownership and destroyed the well fields in Pei County, which actually means that the original management model and the military system are meaningless in Pei County.

The special situation in Pei County makes the changes in Pei County impossible to replicate elsewhere. The supporting grassroots officials, the huge profits of the Mozhe Workshop, are completely elite soldiers. The military system in which grassroots officers can expand their troops at any time in the future, and are military recruitment that has not been prepared for large-scale wars within ten years...

All these are the characteristics of Pei County. Even the Wei State, which has been reformed, has implemented another private acre system on a large scale, and it is impossible to replicate it.

If the Duke of Song dared to follow the model of Pei County and promote it throughout the Song Dynasty, it would be certain that he would be killed within one month.

All these changes will affect the interests of many people, but the greatest interest that will be touched is the change in the land system.

Since we are determined to change the land system, we might as well propose all kinds of basic changes at once and completely, and smash any possible rebellion before the main force of the Mozhe left Peixian and went to Shangqiu.

The nobles' fiefdom privileges are deprived, which will inevitably arouse dissatisfaction among a large number of people, but some nobles with more private acres will choose to endure silence.

The Mo people did not force all the nobles to the opposite side. At least the nobles' private acres of the Mo people admitted it and did not divide it.

As for the later use of renting farmers to escape and forcing the nobles to sell land, forcing the old nobles to devote themselves to industry and commerce or business, the current vision of these nobles cannot be seen for the time being.

The nobles will be divided into two factions, one will be with the Mozhe and will never die; the other will accept the Mozhe's changes and will not see the dangers they face for the time being.

The farmers absolutely support Mozhe, not only because of Mozhe's private acre reform, but also because Mozhe holds iron, salt, oxen and horses and other supplies in his hands.

The most important thing is that the ink person has money. He is rich enough to provide various loans: this money may not be gold and copper, but this money can be exchanged for the seeds of iron and agricultural tools that farmers need urgently.

After the industrial and commercial food officials system was broken, the Mozhe had his own workshop, which could accommodate some craftsmen originally included in the industrial and commercial food officials, as well as craftsmen associations and other organizations that could implicitly manage these private handicraftsmen.

Anyway, the Mo people do not play chariot warfare, do not need a large number of chariots, and have their own ordnance workshops, so they can not collect military taxes from industrialists and businessmen.

It is difficult for the merchant class to transport some goods to Pei County for sale. Whether it is grain, cloth, iron, wood, etc., Pei County has the advantage of price and quality, and transporting these things outside can also make great profits. This is temporarily under the jurisdiction of the Mozhe.

Civil laws and regulations can directly use the twelve grass and silk methods, and add some more to the Pei County after the reform.

This change is just the beginning, and people need to adapt. After about three years of productivity development, some corrections will be made.

The political system that matches it will also be decided at the gathering in five days. It is not difficult to have the construction of six townships outside as the basis.

Amid the cheers of public support, some people were ready to quietly escape and pass this shocking news back after listening to the first proposal of Mozhe on land system change...
