With the Han Imperial Party occupying the court in an all-round way, the word reform has become the main theme in the court today, and no one can hinder the subsequent reform.&1t;/p>

Regarding the progress of the reform, Zhu Youxiao and Shen Wei already have specific charters.&1t;/p>

"First north, then south, first east and then west, step by step" is the general outline of this reform. Because from the four elements of "administrative, capital, road, and grain" required for reform, administrative reform in the north is easier, capital is also located in the north, and the people in the north have relatively weak disaster resistance, so the north first reform.&1t;/p>

Compared with the west, the east has the advantage of transportation. After all, it is close to the coast and can significantly reduce transportation costs through sea transportation, so that commodity grain can be imported and commodity can be exported.&1t;/p>

According to this general outline, Shandong has become the next province to be included in the new policy area.&1t;/p>

"State-owned consortiums have also had great developments in Shandong in recent years, including mining, agriculture, and road investments, so it is relatively easy to reform in Shandong. However, there is a difficult problem in Shandong, that is, the Kong family holds too much land. If the new policy is used to restrict the Kong family, something might happen." Shen Qing said to Zhu Youxiao.&1t;/p>

"The Kong family has been rewarded for generations, so they should think about repaying the emperor's kindness. If they are unwilling to support the court, it will be useless. The court can establish another successor to the Kong family." Zhu Youxiao has been prepared to cut off his arm. The Kong family does not agree with the new policy and must agree with the new policy. Then choose a child from the Kong family to continue to act as a signboard.&1t;/p>

"Your Majesty think twice." Shen Qing hesitated a little. As a scholar, he naturally knew the influence of the Kong family in the world.&1t;/p>

"I have considered it. Even if the Kong family is moved, there will be chaos. There will be no fundamental root. As long as the new policy area remains stable, even if all scholars in the world rebel, what are you afraid of?" Zhu Youxiao said resolutely, with a strong confidence in his words.&1t;/p>

Shen Qing thought about it and immediately became determined.&1t;/p>

The emperor's confidence was obviously not caused by arrogance, but by the support of the military and civilians in the New Deal area. With the current reform achievements of the court in the New Deal area, even if the world is in chaos, it will not be chaotic. As long as this foundation is maintained, what rebellion cannot be wiped out?&1t;/p>

∷♂ding∷♂ Point∷♂ Small∷♂ Say,.￡.o≦&1t;    s="arn:2p    o     2p    o">&1t;srp    p="/aasrp">s_();&1t;/srp>&1t;/p>

In fact, Kong's family is just a sign. As long as the emperor does not smash the sign, but changes it to a new sign, scholars in the world will not rebel. Most of them have criticized the court.&1t;/p>

"Your Majesty's Holy Wisdom." Shen Qing finally chose to support him.&1t;/p>

"After all, we must thoroughly reform the issue of agricultural tax. Since our control over the new policy areas is no longer the same, it is time to completely reform the agricultural tax." Zhu Youxiao said: "In this way, we don't need to pay attention to the Kong family. If they jump up and down, they will take action with them. The cabinet came up with a plan. From now on, whether officials, scholars or powerful people in the new policy areas, those who own land will have to pay agricultural tax. The more land they hold, the higher the tax."&1t;/p>

"Your Majesty, the royal family's salary is also urgently in reform. This is the reform plan proposed by me." Chen Yi took out a memorial and submitted it to Zhu Youxiao.&1t;/p>

Zhu Youxiao took over the memorial and read it. This royal salary reform plan is to set the current royal salary quota. If the royal family members are separated by four generations, they will no longer be given salary if they increase their members in the future.&1t;/p>

"Another one, four generations of royal members are allowed to engage in work, farmer, and commerce." Zhu Youxiao said after reading it, royal members are not allowed to engage in the regulations of scholar, farmer, industry and commerce, and are now in a semi-collapse state. In fact, those royal members with the side departments do not have much salary at all, and are often owed, and have begun to engage in the activities of industrial, farmer, and commerce.&1t;/p>

It is indeed time to reduce the expenses of the royal family's salary. Now that the royal family's population continues to grow, the consumption of national finances is too terrifying. Many of the agricultural taxes, which were originally not large, have been consumed by these royal family members.&1t;/p>

…&1t;/p>

When people thought that the emperor would go to Chengde to escape the summer heat, it would be sanitation for a while, but not long after, the Agricultural Tax Reform Law was officially issued and fully implemented in the new policy areas.&1t;/p>

Compared with the previous agricultural tax reform, this time it is more thorough.&1t;/p>

The Agricultural Tax Reform Law stipulates that those who own land less than 30 mu are exempt from agricultural tax, and those who own land less than 30 mu are charged 5% agricultural tax. Those who have more than 50 mu are charged 10% agricultural tax, those who have more than 30 mu are charged 12% agricultural tax, those who have more than 50 mu are charged 15% agricultural tax, and those who have more than 10 mu are charged 18% agricultural tax, those who have more than 50 mu are charged 21% agricultural tax, and those who have more than 10,000 mu are charged 24% agricultural tax. At the same time, it is stipulated that the agricultural tax of arable land obtained by military merit is sealed at 10%, and the heir will not be sealed.&1t;/p>

The taxes of agricultural companies are constant, regardless of size, are 10%.&1t;/p>

And the Tenant Rent Act was revised again, limiting the maximum amount of tenant rent to 15%. At the same time, the tenant rent of the "Bei Zhili Agricultural Company" was also implemented in accordance with the bill, and the tenant rent was reduced by half.&1t;/p>

When the new bill was promulgated, the share price of Beizhili Agricultural Company fell sharply that day, and investors sold their stocks one after another, and the stock price evaporated more than half. Since Beizhili Agricultural Company went public and sold, Royal Capital has continued to withdraw 6 times. At this time, the stock price fell, and Royal Capital, which was reorganized into state-owned capital, killed it again.&1t;/p>

Because investors have lost confidence in Beizhili Agricultural Company, after all, after paying taxes, the return rate is only 5%, and this stock is too useless.&1t;/p>

As state-owned capital repurchases large amounts of stocks, holdings quickly rose to more than 90%, and only a few investors were unwilling to sell.&1t;/p>

Then the state-owned capital was too high in stock price, and the remaining investors finally gradually wavered and sold their stocks one after another. The state-owned capital's holdings in Beizhili Agricultural Company rose to 98%, and Beizhili Agricultural Company immediately became a relatively thorough state-owned enterprise.&1t;/p>

Then Beizhili Agricultural Company introduced a "land subscription" policy to tenants, selling land to tenants at a price of 5 yuan per mu.&1t;/p>

It is equivalent to farmers who can subscribe or not. If you are willing to subscribe, subscribe to the land they currently cultivate.&1t;/p>

Those who are willing to subscribe can only pay 5% agricultural tax in the future and no longer have to pay 15% of the tenant rent. Those who are unwilling to subscribe can continue to farm and continue to pay 15% of the tenant rent.&1t;/p>

Tenants who subscribe to land can obtain low-interest loans, with an annual interest rate of 3%. This interest rate is indeed relatively low. As the volume of paper money increases in the future, appropriate inflation must be generated. As the people's income increases, the prices of agricultural products will also increase, and the income of these farmers will also increase accordingly.&1t;/p>

After this policy was introduced, farmers were still very enthusiastic about subscribing. Of course, some farmers were unwilling to subscribe to land, believing that 15% of the tenant rent was already very good, which was half the lower than in the past.&1t;/p>

These farmers who do not subscribe will naturally have more money in the future than those farmers who subscribe to land and their lives will be better. Those farmers who subscribe to land have obtained property rights and the land can be passed on to their descendants.&1t;/p>

Whether to buy land or not depends on the conceptual problem, and do not force it.&1t;/p>

So the tenants who were willing to subscribe to the land were happy, and those farmers who were unwilling to subscribe to the land were not affected. And as the tenant rent decreased, they were also happy.&1t;/p>

The introduction of the Agricultural Tax Reform Act caused some turmoil in the New Deal area, and those powerful people opposed it very much because this bill also included them in the agricultural tax collection group. On the contrary, officials in the New Deal area had no objection to this bill.&1t;/p>

Or if you have any objections, you dare not say it. After all, the officialdom in the current new policy area has been firmly controlled by the Han Imperial Party, and at the same time, it adopts a policy of high salaries to maintain integrity. It is not impossible for officials to pay some agricultural tax. Moreover, many officials are not from the Northern Zhili area, and the land is not in the Northern Zhili area and the Northeast area, so this fire cannot burn them.&1t;/p>

But no matter how the powerful oppose it, they have no military power at all. With Zhu Youxiao's high military power and the abolition of the garrison and the border troops, most of the military power in the hands of these powerful people has been stripped away, and a small number of them have not been stripped away, and their combat effectiveness is also very bad.&1t;/p>

They have no military power and cannot incite the people to cause trouble. No matter how they oppose it, it is useless. Especially after the Dongchang and Jinyiwei caught a few powerful people who jumped up and down and made trouble everywhere, the other powerful people kept silent.&1t;/p>

Local governments in the new policy area received the spirit of agricultural tax reform from the court and held meetings one after another, and then began to comprehensively measure the land within the management area.&1t;/p>

After the reform of the new policy areas, the number of official civil servants has increased, and township-level administrative agencies have been added, and police and armed police can also request reinforcements from the garrison troops.&1t;/p>

In this land measurement, the benefits of administrative reform were immediately highlighted. If the former government wanted to complete the land measurement in a prefecture and county, it was not known when it would be necessary to achieve it, because there would be insufficient manpower.&1t;/p>

With the increase in civil servants and the emergence of township governments, the task of measuring land was quickly carried out.&1t;/p>

First, measure the land, and second, clarify the property rights. The official will no longer recognize the legality of the vacancies. Any land transaction must be signed by the official to take effect.&1t;/p>

At the same time, each province can convert the land according to local conditions.&1t;/p>

For example, the sandy land in the northern Zhili area is reduced to one acre of three acres. For example, the land in the Heilongjiang area is only able to plant soybeans and other crops with low yields, but five acres are reduced to one acre.&1t;/p>

Conversion must be reported to the court, and the court will send people to review and severely punish those who secretly operate.&1t;/p>

The collection of agricultural tax has also restored the method of directly collecting currency. After all, the commercialization of agricultural products in the new policy areas is relatively smooth now. Unlike when Zhang Juzheng implemented the one-whip method, many areas in the Ming Dynasty still had a rural natural economic model.&1t;/p>

Nowadays, the rural natural economy has been mostly replaced by commodity economy in the new policy areas. With the increase in the circulation of paper money and the increase in the circulation of copper coins, agricultural producers have enough money to pay taxes. Farmers with land ownership less than 30 mu can enjoy a tax exemption policy, which will not lead to insufficient currency circulation, which will lead to merchants lowering the price of agricultural products. (To be continued.)&1t;/p>
