Chapter 464 Land
Chapter 464

Zhang Hao said to Jiajing that if all the land in the world is owned by the court, then the people in the world can be exempted from taxes.

"Tax exemption?" After Jiajing heard this, he looked at Zhang Hao in shock. Farmers' taxes are a big income for the court!
"Of course it can be exempted from tax. Just think about how much profit salt can make a year, and iron, and those two workshops, and commercial tax. Previously, Daming's tax was only about 700 million taels a year.

But now the salt is enough. If the people have money, then the sales of salt will be greater. In addition, the business will be more developed, the people will buy more items, and then the tax will be more. But now challenging! "Zhang Hao sat there and said to Jiajing.

"That's right, if all of them are owned by the court, then the people will have fields to plant, and then the people will not rebel!" Jiajing wanted to understand this at this moment,
Knowing this is the way to allow Daming to continue to pass on, and even pass on to more generations. This policy, if you want to implement it, you have to find a way to implement it. If you can implement it, then Daming will have a better future, and your descendants will also I can continue to be a good emperor, and I don't have to worry about whether they will be rebelled and let Ming Dynasty perish!
"Barbarian, is there any way to take back those lands, if it is forcibly taken back, it will definitely not work!" Jiajing asked Zhang Hao.

"Yes, from now on, land transactions will not be allowed. If you want to sell the land, you can only sell it to the government. The government will distribute the land to those people who do not have land. The land will be distributed according to the population. In addition, if the court has money, You can also buy land, for example, if the court has a surplus of 500 million taels this year, then you can buy 100 million taels of land, which will allow 50 people to farm the land without starving to death!" Zhang Hao said while sitting there.

"Lu Fang, how much money do we have left?" Jiajing immediately asked Lu Fang.

"Back to the emperor, there are still more than 1400 million taels!" Lu Fang said immediately, clasping his hands.

"Then we can buy more than 200 million mu of land. In this way, more than 100 million people will not be starved to death, and those people will not follow the people to rebel!" Zhang Hao immediately said to Jiajing.

"However, my Daming has so much land, and the court has so much money to buy so much land. My Daming's land has 20 mu, so it needs [-] taels of silver. Of course, some of it was purchased before. If it is confiscated, it is estimated that a lot will be confiscated this time!" Jiajing sat there and said.

"Your Majesty, those from Shanxi, plus those officials this time, I estimate that we have obtained about 3000 million mu, which can keep 1500 million people from starving to death!" Zhang Hao said to Jiajing, Jiajing heard it and nodded .

"Investigate those corrupt officials, investigate those vassal kings, it is estimated that [-] acres can be obtained, if this is the case, then at least [-]% of the people in my Ming Dynasty will not rebel, and the rest is to find a way Acquired!" Jiajing stood there, thinking about it.

"Anyway, this matter has been done for a long time. From now on, the government can be ordered, and the land cannot be traded. If there is a land deed, it can be sold to the government, but we have to keep an eye on it. Make fake farmland to trade, and then give them a chance to be corrupt!" Zhang Hao said to Jiajing.

"That's right, this matter needs to be handed over to you, and you should keep an eye on it. Only if you keep an eye on this matter, can I be at ease, and I won't be at ease if other people handle this matter!" Jiajing clicked He nodded to Zhang Hao and said, he knows very well what those officials under him can do, and he can't believe those officials below.

"If possible, I will set up a special agency in Jinyiwei to investigate and handle the government's purchase of land!" Zhang Hao said to Jiajing.

"Okay, you can do it now. In addition, the distribution of land to the people, you can also do it here!" Jiajing said to Zhang Hao.

"Ah?" Zhang Hao looked at Jiajing in surprise. This is a matter for the local government. If you do it yourself, you will need a lot of people.

"You go and do it, those local officials, I don't worry, I know you, you will definitely give priority to those poor people!" Jiajing said to Zhang Hao.

"Okay, then I'll start doing it when I get back?" Zhang Hao asked Jiajing.

"Okay!" Jiajing nodded, agreeing with Zhang Hao to do so.

"Immediately confiscate those officials to the fields and distribute them to the people. I will also issue an imperial edict immediately. From now on, the entire Ming Dynasty is not allowed to trade land. If you want to trade land, you need to sell it to the government. Now the government can register first. Advance money to the common people, and when the time comes, I will send people to check that the land has no problems, and I will give the money right away!" Jiajing said to Zhang Hao.

"Okay, but, Your Majesty, if this happens, those feudal lords and officials will object, and the opposition may be very powerful!" Zhang Hao reminded Jiajing.

"Let them oppose it? Anyway, I just follow our plan. Take it slowly, even if I can't finish it, let the emperor below continue to do it. I don't believe it. Those lands can't be taken back. If it arrives At that time, half of the people will have land, and I can buy those lands by force. I believe that if the people don’t rebel, no one can rebel successfully, and the people are not stupid!” Jiajing said to Zhang Hao, Zhang Hao heard it, and immediately said to Zhang Hao Jiajing gave a thumbs up.

"Okay, you go to work, be careful yourself, you can go to Shandong to clean up King Lu, or you can go to Xi'an to clean up King Qin and the others, anyway, you look around and see those vassal kings You can clean up the illegal ones. They are interfering in the affairs of the court so much now. I can't continue to tolerate them like this. Their hands are stretched a little too long.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Zhang Hao said immediately, cupping his hands!
Soon Zhang Hao left and went to Jinyiwei. When he arrived at Jinyiwei, Zhang Hao found Shen Lian.

"Shen Lian, you are also a Jinshi. I have something to do. I need you to do it, and I hope you can do it well. If you do it well, the emperor will give you a lot of rewards!" Zhang Hao poured tea for Shen Lian. Said Shen Lian.

"My lord, what do you want me to do? Tell me, I will never frown!" Shen Lian immediately stood up and said to Zhang Hao.

"Well, don't worry, it's not about letting you lose your head and take the blame, but you need to do something. It is really for the sake of the people of the Ming Dynasty and the great affairs of the Ming Dynasty. To do this thing, you need to stand the test And temptation!" Zhang Hao said to Shen Lian.

"My lord, tell me! I promise to do it, no matter what kind of temptation, I will not take it!" Shen Lian stood there and continued to express his determination.

"Okay, then I'll talk to you carefully!" Zhang Hao said to Shen Lian, and then began to tell Shen Lian about the distribution of farmland, including the purchase of farmland in various places in the future.

"Take back all those farmlands, take them back to the court, and hand them over to the people to grow. From now on, the farmland can only belong to the court?" Shen Lian heard this, and looked at Zhang Hao in shock.

"That's right, it may take ten or twenty years to complete this matter. Of course, you don't need to do it for ten or twenty years, but you need to make a good start!" Zhang Hao said to Shen Lian.

"My lord, that's fine. I'll do it. Now many people don't have land, and they plant land for those landlords. If they can have their own land, then they can support their families, and they won't be forced to sell it. She's a girl!" Shen Lian thought about it, and said to Shen Lian.

"You, you can choose people now. You can choose from our Jinyiwei, or you can choose from the outside. Choose those who you think you can trust, but the character must be good. If something goes wrong, you and I will be responsible. !" Zhang Hao said to Shen Lian.

"Here, I choose someone?" Shen Lian heard this, and looked at Zhang Hao in shock.

"That's right, you choose people, the number of people, um, you just think that a county needs two people. My Ming Dynasty has more than 900 counties, and I need some backup personnel. I estimate that I need about 2000 people. The 2000 people They just keep an eye on those lands, they rotate every year, irregularly, before the rotation, they need to hand over clearly, then I will write a charter for you, you go and prepare people to go!" Zhang Hao explained to Shen Lian.

"Yes, my lord, I'm going right now!" Shen Lian said immediately, cupping his hands,
Zhang Hao, on the other hand, was sitting in the office room and began to write the hype charter for this matter. After a while, Liu Yunhai came over.

"My lord, we have sent people to search the homes of those officials. We have questioned those officials, and we have found a total of 409 million acres of fertile land!" Liu Yunhai came over and said to Zhang Hao.

"Okay, take back all those land deeds!" Zhang Hao said to Liu Yunhai.

"Yes, my lord, but we still don't have enough manpower here, and the officials are too busy now!" Liu Yunhai said to Zhang Hao, although besides Zhang Hao, he is the most official, although he likes power, but he is so busy , I can't bear it either.

"Well, okay, when the time comes, I will apply with the emperor to see if some officials can be transferred!" Zhang Hao said to Liu Yunhai. Now there is no one here who can be transferred. sea ​​of ​​clouds rating,

But Liu Yunhai can't be promoted anymore. After all, he was promoted not long ago. It's a bit unreasonable. It is estimated that Jiajing should transfer someone from outside, but the outside officials don't want Jin Yiwei to come now.

Because Jin Yiwei's reputation is not very good, many people say they are minions, dog legs, anyway, there is no good word.

It’s just that Zhang Hao doesn’t know that Jinyiwei is attractive to the outside world now, because the benefits of Jinyiwei are good. The income of a Jinyiwei General Banner is more than that of a fourth-rank official in the current dynasty, and the income of a hundred households is more than that of the current cabinet. the income of those officials.
