Chapter 563： Stand in line

On the 20th, the second DPRK meeting.

The controversial issue is still land reform.

Compared with the last time, more officials expressed their opinions this time.

Some resolutely opposed it, some expressed the need for long-term deliberations, and some chose to support it.

Relatively speaking, there are more people who oppose it.

After all, most officials belong to this class.

This is a matter of their vital interests, no matter how dangerous they are, they have to fight.

Faced with this situation, Wei Ziwen spoke.

He put forward his own view, that is, Wu Changqing's solution, a taxation bill in cascades.

As soon as this plan came out, both the opposition and the neutrals were slightly surprised.

Because this plan sounds very subtle, it doesn't look like a temporary idea, it's a bit like a plan that has been prepared for a long time now.

Many aspects have been considered in great detail, and the opposition has not even been able to find the issue of the plan for a while.

After contacting Wei Ziwen's identity, many things are ready to come out.

This is his Wei Ziwen's suggestion, it is obviously Wu Changqing's compromise plan.

People in the opposition are about to vomit blood, which is really bullying.

The emperor's side was meticulously planned, one after another, and well prepared.

But their opposition has been rushing to respond.

If they are prepared to deal with it on the spot, they will naturally suffer a big loss.

Suddenly, they couldn't even think of good rhetoric to refute.

Faced with this plan, the opposition is naturally still dissatisfied. Such a taxation system is not much better than the forced distribution of land for free.

Although the forms are different, the end result is that the land in the hands of the big landlords will be transferred to the hands of the poor.

The methods seem to be much milder, but it doesn't make sense.

Their core demand is to keep the land in the hands of the big landlords.

If the land is gone, you will lose.

However, although they were dissatisfied, their opposition was not as fierce as before.

On the one hand, the word is poor, and on the other hand, it lacks firm confidence.

In any case, the emperor made a concession.

If you want to negotiate a result, you must make some concessions. Just like bargaining in the vegetable market, you can only proceed with each other's concessions, and finally reach a compromise and complete the transaction.

If they continue to stick to their previous attitude, I am afraid that the emperor will set the table up, which will not benefit both parties.

If you want to counter-offer, you can't just pay it back.

There is much more, and there is no way to continue the discussion. If there is less, it is easy to suffer.

This kind of research should have taken time, but now it is in debate, and there is no time for the opposition to study it.

At this time, the officials' abilities are tested.

"In order to guarantee the landlord’s private property rights and at the same time to increase the enthusiasm for production, the minister believed that the landlord’s ownership of the land can be maintained.

However, through government decree regulations, landlords are allowed to contract their land to other people for rent. The people pay a fixed rent, and all the food produced is owned by the people.

In this way, in order to increase their income, the people will cultivate more carefully. The landlord is also more receptive to this plan, and there will be no big rebounds and turbulence. "

Qian Qianyi personally came off the court and proposed his compromise plan.

In this plan, the landlord class will suffer a little loss, and there is no way to exploit the people unlimitedly.

However, compared to the land being divided, this result has been many times better.

If they can win this condition, it will be regarded as a victory for their opposition.

Moreover, when the policy is concretely implemented, the landlord can also use its own capital's superior position to continue to protect its rights and interests.

For example, one mu of paddy field requires a very high rent, and at the same time, regardless of drought or flood, such a high rent is required.

When encountering a good harvest, the people may still be able to taste a bit of sweetness. However, once a disaster year is encountered, the output may not be enough for rent.

When the time comes, the people will owe a debt to the landlords, and they dare not resist the exploitation and slavery of the landlords.

As long as there is enough time, the landlord can change the way to gradually collapse a family of people, and then annex their land, and then annex their population.

Turn these people into a population without household registration and hide them to avoid taxation.

Wu Changqing’s system shows that he has a population of around 83 million under his rule, but the current population on the household registration is less than 70 million. With no statistics on babies and wild people, I’m afraid it’s only 78 million.

In other words, at least 5 million people are concealed in those big landlord manors.

This is not a small number. Counting these five million people can provide an additional objective tax.

"Master Qian is afraid that this law is wrong. The land is not in the hands of the people. They will never have the right to have equal dialogue with the landlords. The landlords can raise rents wantonly or decide whether to continue renting out next year, in order to threaten the people.

In short, if the land is not in the hands of the people, the landlord has a way to continue to exploit the people and cause a new round of land annexation. I don’t think I need to talk about the dangers of land annexation. "

Wei Ziwen retorted.

The two sides continue to debate, in order to win the support of those neutrals.

From their arguments, some officials have already made a decision.

"The minister believes that the tiered tax rate is feasible. It gives landlords the power to choose, solves the problem of people's enthusiasm for production, and also benefits the development of industry and commerce.

Hong Chengchou spoke, and he chose to support it.

As soon as this decree is issued, many landlords will inevitably sell their land.

The only way out for the money sold is to invest in industry and commerce.

This is a good thing for the Ministry of Commerce.

Hearing Hong Chengchou's clear-cut support for reforms, the opponents suddenly felt depressed.

Immediately afterwards, Ruan Dacheng, who was heavier, also chose to support reform.

The reason for his choice of reform is also very simple, because this is what the emperor wants to do. As a lone minister, it is natural to support the emperor's policies without hesitation.

Among the eight books, two have already chosen to support the reform, and two oppose it.

As the controversy continued, Ma Shiying and Zuo Zongwu also supported the reform.

In this way, the supporters of the reformists accounted for half.

In the end, Zhao Mingchong of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs and Zeng Yi of the Ministry of Public Security have not expressed their views.

The attitude of the two of them is critical. As long as one person supports reform, the reformers will have the majority. Wu Changqing has reason to agree to the reform, which can leave the opposition with nothing to say.

Zhao Mingchong and Zeng Yi are actually officials representing the interests of the landlord class.

However, they were very hesitant at the moment.

They saw Wu Changqing's determination to reform. If they choose to oppose it and tie with the reformers, then this matter may be endless.

This is not a good thing for the court.

Out of many considerations, Zhao Mingchong finally expressed his support for the reform, but he hoped that the measures should be more moderate in the formulation of specific plans.

After all, not all landlords’ wealth is obtained illegally.

There are some landlords who depend on their ancestors to accumulate for generations.

There are also people who make money by doing business and then legally buy it.

These people need to be treated slightly differently. Otherwise, it is inevitable to accidentally hurt some innocents.
