Chapter 87

The national fortune of Daming is getting worse year by year. In folk terms, Wang Xiaoer's new year is getting worse year by year.

In the Apocalypse Dynasty, the castration party was rampant and the people were miserable, but at least they could keep the construction of slaves out of the pass, but now it's better. Today's emperor is very hard, hard-working and hard-working, but he has made a mess of the country's government.

Since Zhu houzhao, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor of Wuzong, has written the character of being confused with the king, but the days have passed. However, today's emperor shows that he is a generation of Ming and benevolent monarchs in every way, but he has made a mess of the country and the world.

Since Chongzhen Zhu Youjian became emperor, the state affairs of the Ming Dynasty have been getting worse and worse day by day.

Moreover, today's emperor, he is very strange. In the past, every emperor from Zhu Di trusted eunuchs. They all thought that eunuchs were domestic slaves and ministers were family ministers. Using domestic slaves to deal with family ministers could achieve a certain balance, and then the emperor could benefit from it. However, today's emperors hate eunuchs' interference in politics and don't trust eunuchs at all, Since he took office, he has deprived the power of the East Hall almost. The royal guards supervise all officials. The royal guards belong to a department under the dual leadership of the inner court and the imperial court. They are eaten by the civilian departments, and they simply lose the role of supervision. Without supervision, the civilian forces are growing uncontrollably.

Emperor Chongzhen also found this. He also found the power of the Donglin Party, so he went to play with the ministers himself. As a result, he was tired to death, but the effect was not good.

Liu Bu couldn't understand the important events of the imperial court, and he couldn't see the power struggle between ministers and factions and the emperor, but he felt that the most pitiful thing was that the emperor actually exempted the taxes of officials.

Liu Bu is also a member of the official family. He himself is also a beneficiary. However, he still feels that this is very inappropriate. Those who are not rich today do not have to pay taxes. Because of the problem of the little ice age, Daming is either a drought or a flood. There is no good life at all, but they have to bear the heaviest taxes, Thus, it has evolved into a consequence, that is, Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and the road has frozen bones.

Now, in order to attract talents and recruit people, Liu Bu has greatly exaggerated his wealth, because he knows that in today's era, he still worships authority and wealth. If he has a hatred complex for the rich like later generations, it is estimated that he would have been dragged out, beaten to death and slaughtered directly.

Moreover, Liu Bu was modest when he bragged. He only bragged in front of his subordinates. Everyone mixed with him. He felt that mixing with this rich and powerful boss would have special face and security. He started from this point to show off his wealth, not like those online celebrities in later generations, but just to be famous and pretend to be forced.

Moreover, he also found it useful to pretend to force and boast, which greatly improved the cohesion between them, and everyone was willing to mix with a boss like him.

Liu Bu found that it seems that people in this era look at things very long-term. As long as they have a full meal in front of them, they will consider future things.

It's not that people in this era have long-term and accurate vision, but that they prefer to pursue long-term things, such as iron rice bowl. Even if you give them an iron rice bowl, they won't be at ease. Only if you give them an iron rice bowl, they will work hard. For example, when you are an official, you have to add the word hereditary, Let his children and grandchildren be born rich and noble. These people will feel at ease and will try their best to do so.

This system can stimulate people's great potential in the short term and make them work hard, but over time, it will inevitably produce a kind of inertia and institutional rigidity.

For example, at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the peasant, industrial and commercial classes actually played an extremely excellent role, but after hundreds of years, this system has completely deteriorated into powerful oppressors, small oppressors and weak ones. They can't jump out of this frame and scope to fight back, but let them slaughter them, As a result, it has become a dominant situation at present.

Liu Buhe thinks his top priority is to organize the people of Jimo camp so that they can produce benefits. He can no longer choose those who can fight from the two or three thousand disabled and defeated soldiers, nor can he train them into elite soldiers, because their original strength and elite have been destroyed, It is impossible to select excellent elites.

For example, the Qi family army had been recruiting troops from Yiwu area. As a result, with the death of a large number of soldiers and the serious loss of local population, the last county magistrate applied to the imperial court not to recruit troops here. If they recruit troops here again, it will be over here. Jimo camp is almost the same. Their sources of troops have been exhausted, You can no longer add troops to them.

He can't train the people here into elite soldiers, but he must find a job for them to live safely. Everyone can have food, clothes and clothes, and the place is stable. As the head of the city, mizhu has the responsibility and obligation to lead the people to work and let them have food, clothes and clothes.

As a resident soldier like him, in terms of his duties, he is commonly known as taking charge of the army and the people. He has a responsibility to defend the land. Liu Bu doesn't know so much about the high sounding bullshit. He just understands that the people he wants to rule have clothes, clothes and food. He doesn't dare to think about others.

Liu Bu has also found that there are both natural and man-made disasters that cause this situation and the people's inadequate food and clothing.

Natural disasters refer to the harsh environment during the little ice age. This climate leads to extreme weather, either flood or drought. There is no good weather. In this way, people have poor harvests every year and have no good life.

Then there was political corruption in the imperial court, and party disputes continued.

The imperial court was corrupt and the party struggle continued, which led to a series of bad consequences, that is, there were JianNu outside to capture Liao Town, and there were rogue bandits inside, which wreaked havoc in all directions, resulting in an extremely difficult situation for Daming.

Moreover, there are more and more rogue bandits now. The imperial court has no choice but to continue to increase taxes on the people, collect more money, and form more troops to fight against the rogue bandits and build slaves.

The problem is that their tough tax collection methods have destroyed many people's families. When they have no way, they have to rise up and start a war to make trouble, resulting in a bad consequence, that is, the more and more bandits are suppressed.

And now the Ming Court has a wrong understanding, that is, they always think that the more and more bandits are suppressed, which is a military problem, because the military leaders are not effective in suppressing bandits, which leads to the continuous flow of bandits. In fact, they have never thought of one, that is, why there are so many bandits and bandits, which are constantly suppressed and killed. When you kill them, the spring breeze blows, It's reborn again.

At present, Liu Bu has only two small base areas. At present, he is in this small base area. His plan is to restore people's livelihood. First of all, let the people move. Whatever kind of seed should be raised, let the people move anyway.

Then there is the issue of taxation. In the case of Taxation, he will hang all the people in this area in the name of their Liu family, and then they don't need to collect taxes.

When the Liu family pushed down the tax revenue, even if the people's life was hard, the weather was bad during the little ice age, and the people's income was less, they could reluctantly stick to it.

As long as people have a bite to eat, they can always live and work in peace and contentment. They will not join the roving bandits in rebellion. This is the plan he wants to implement.

Mizhu can only communicate with his military division song xiance. Song xiance is now in Linqing. They can only write letters and exchange opinions in this regard.

However, Liu Bu's most important and most important point is to let the people under his rule move and let them produce value and food by themselves. Then they don't need the Liu family to transfuse blood for them. If the Liu family has been allowed to transfuse blood for them, they can't raise so many people and will eventually bring down and drag down the Liu family.

Therefore, Liu Bu took tough measures against the tax collectors who came to collect taxes. If the other party dared to come, he would let them work in the labor camp of Liu's Fushan Institute for free.

So that the tax collectors in the nearby area were terrified and dared not come here to collect taxes.

Daming's tax policy is the apportionment of the top officials. The top officials ask for a number from the bottom, and then the bottom ones are responsible for collecting it. Of course, many people collect it by means of violent collection. If you don't pay the tax, they will send someone to your house to block it.

As an analogy, like the tax office in Fushan in the past, Li Wu was actually the only one officially established, but Li Wu just recruited hundreds of people to help him and collect taxes forcibly and violently. Such a small place is to let him collect more than 40000 liang of silver.

Moreover, when the Liu family, the largest local landlord, did not pay taxes, it can be seen how heavy the burden of the local people is. The crows in the world are generally black, and the officials in every place are almost the same. As a result, the imperial court clearly wants to levy a tax of one or two silver coins, and the people below will receive 100 Liang. However, the 100 liang of silver will be cut off layer by layer, and only one or two silver coins will eventually flow to the imperial court. Therefore, their current political system is suffering the people all over the world and enriching the officials.
