City Lord's office, Council hall. The high-level meeting of the state of Qi was held again.
Compared with the first high-level meeting, some new people were added this time. First, Gu min, who joined with 30000 soldiers, followed by Hetai, the prefecture governor of Yi'an County, and the general guarding the city, followed by Gongsun, the prefecture governor of fan County, and Miao Peng, the general guarding the city.
Song Yan looked around the people, and Lang said: "today I have two things to announce when I call you together. But before I announce those two things, I want to inform you of the good news that the paper produced by us has caused a huge sensation in the state of Chu, and up to now, we have received 37 million yuan only by buying paper."
Hearing the figure of 37 million yuan, Gu min, Meng Bozhao and others didn't feel anything, but song Xiu and Shen Du, who were in charge of the internal affairs, were shocked.
As you know, the annual tax revenue of a middle county is only about 10 million yuan.
37 million yuan, which is comparable to the tax revenue of three counties in one year.
Song Yan continued: "at present, the paper factory is speeding up its expansion. However, the guard work should also be done well. After all, wealth is very popular. Who knows if other countries will send someone to steal our paper technology?" Speaking of this, song Yan looked at Meng Bozhao: "general Meng."
"Subordinate."
"From now on, he sent 3000 troops to look after the paper factory for me."
"Please rest assured that the general's subordinates will take good care of the paper factory." Meng Bozhao said excitedly that the paper factory is now the chicken that lays the golden eggs in the state of Qi. Song Yan gave the paper factory to him to guard, which is his value.
After finishing the paper factory, song Yan's words changed: "the first thing I want to announce today is to reduce the tax. From now on, the agricultural tax has been reduced from 50% to 10%
"General, is it too low to be ten?" Shendu reminds me.
"No, it's not easy for ordinary people to live in these decades of continuous wars on the mainland of Shenzhou. As far as I know, more than half of ordinary people can't even eat enough. They can't even eat enough. Where can they work hard!
Of course, the agricultural tax is not reduced free of charge. There must be a supplementary condition. For the civilians who want to reduce the tax, everyone has to cultivate three mu of wasteland for the country. If the civilians who open the wasteland want to cultivate, they can grow their own food, and they will enjoy the tax exemption for three years.
Three years later, the tax will be 10%
Everyone's eyes brightened as soon as they heard about it. This tax-free method can definitely increase the enthusiasm of civilians. At the same time, three years later, the country will be able to increase millions of acres of good farmland.
"Brilliant general!"
"The general's vision!"
Everyone quickly flattered.
Song Yanbai waved and began to say the second thing: "then, the second thing is to build a school, which is funded by the state. Every county in the three counties will build a school. Anyone who reaches the age of seven can come to the school for three years free.
If you do well, you can go to three prefectures and cities to study. Once you pass the examination, you are qualified to be a local official. "
There are too few scholars in this world, and those who can afford to read are the children of the powerful family. It can be said that most of the civilians are illiterate.
This is also the reason why song Yan set up a school.
In addition to Meng Bozhao and Shen Du, other people were enslaved by song Yan with a puppet deity. Naturally, they would not object to his opinion. Therefore, the construction of the school will soon be settled.
The two orders of the general soon spread among the common people of the three counties.
When we learned that as long as three acres of wasteland were dug, our taxes on good land could be reduced to 10%. Everyone was crazy and went to the government to register and expressed their willingness to open wasteland.
When the cause of opening up wasteland was in full swing, the construction of the school was also carried out in an orderly manner under the auspices of the government.
At the same time, the people of Zhao state also learned that ancient min had fallen into Qi State, and that Yi'an county and fan county had fallen into Qi State's hands.
For a while, the whole country was shocked. Zhao kingdom in the palace fell several wine cups in a row. In anger, he killed a concubine with his sword.
In addition, the name of song Yan, the general of Qi State, was also spread in Zhao state.
According to the spy, song Yan had a meeting with the generals of the two armies and the senior officers of the two armies.
It is inconceivable that the two armies of the state of Zhao would be turned against each other by negotiation alone, but such a thing happened.
Therefore, the spies from different countries also spread the news to their own countries.
For a while, song inkstone became popular in Shenzhou.
Although King Zhao was angry and angry, he didn't continue to send troops to attack song Yan. Who knows if the troops sent this time will be bewitched by him, and then they will turn to the state of Qi. Moreover, without counting the auxiliary soldiers, the number of soldiers that can fight in Zhao is only 200000. Now, more than 50000 people have been abducted by song Yan, and there are only 140000 left. 100000 people will be used to garrison major counties and cities, There are only 40000 soldiers available.
Can more than 40000 people deal with the Qi state with more than 50000 troops?King Zhao is not confident.
Three months have passed since then.
Paper sales have been fully opened in mainland China. Every day, there are caravans going to Linshui county to transport paper to other countries.
Because song Yan changed the money for paper into grain, the grain in the three County Treasury has been piling up since March, and it's not a problem for 100000 troops to eat for five or six years.
Seeing so many grains, song Yan had a new idea, that is to make wine and make high liquor.
The liquor in this world is not only turbid in color, but also extremely low in alcohol concentration. Even the beer in the real world is not as accurate as the beer in the real world.
After the steps and tools for brewing were written to song Xiu, the brewing was left to him.
Song Xiu lived up to his hope. In less than half a month, the high white wine with clear color like water was brewed.
Anyway, the food in the Treasury can't be eaten up, so song Yan, with a wave of his hand, directly drew out half of it to make wine.
Song Yan didn't plan to sell the liquor wholesale after it was made.
It is intended to develop a chain of restaurants.
So, half a month later, three restaurants called Tianxia tower opened at the same time in Yi'an County, fan county and Linshui county.
The dishes in Tianxia restaurant are not much different from those in other restaurants, but the price of his liquor is extremely expensive. A small bottle costs 100 yuan, and a jar costs 900 yuan. It is said that this kind of liquor called xianrenniang was created by song Yan, the famous general of Qi state.
Because of the two things of reducing taxes and building schools, the great general of Song Dynasty had a very high prestige in the three counties, and even many people paid tribute to his eternal position at home.
Therefore, the immortal wine was invented by the general. Anyone with free money should go to the world tower to taste it.
This taste, the mellow but spicy wine, directly conquered them.
Even after a sip of cactus wine, many people patted the table and said, "this is the real wine. The general is indeed a god man!"
[author's aside]: it's found that everyone in the book review area said that "three more is not good". Actually, mosquitoes want to break out, but they are going to go far away at No.78, so they are saving the manuscript.
However, mosquitoes can't live up to everyone's good wishes. Therefore, mosquitoes play a game with everyone here:
reward three thousand beans and one more.
Five hundred plus one more for book reviews.
The recommended ticket is increased by one hundred and one more.
The game time starts from the 6th and ends on the 10th, and then starts from the 11th.
