Eighth year of Chongzhen

Chapter 616 The court has no money for retirement?Gentlemen have it!
"Dare to ask Your Majesty, the pension you mentioned, the ministers and others are very grateful. I believe that all the officials in the world will be grateful for this kind of deep concern for the ministers.

But
How much is this pension suitable for each person?
When should it be released?
What should the retirees, etc., who have served before?
In addition, there are tens of thousands of officials in the world. If they have to pay pensions after retirement in the future, it will be an extremely huge expenditure. With the current income, Taicang may not be able to afford it! "

Hou Xun, who quickly recovered from his shock, stood up and clasped his hands, asking the crux of the policy: where did the money come from.

Since the introduction of the commercial tax and Zhu Youjian's surrender of a piece of salt profit, although many prefectural and county taxes have been exempted, the annual income of the household department still reaches about 300 million taels per year.

In addition, a lot of things were allocated from internal funds, so in the past two years, the Taicang Bank has rarely had a surplus of nearly 400 million taels. When the governors asked for money, they were more comfortable with it.

The chief officials of the household department have already calculated in private, taking the collection quota of Tianjin Wei Customs as an example, if the customs in more affluent Jiangnan and other places are set up and start collecting, then Taicang’s annual revenue will increase by at least 200 million taels. In this way, the total income of the imperial court will reach about 500 million taels per year, and the signs of prosperity have begun to dawn.

If the tax-free fields start to pay rent gradually after a few years, then the prosperous age will come soon.

"Hou Qing's question is very good.

I would like to say that it is precisely because of this consideration that I decided to open the customs, and immediately implemented the policy of gentry and gentry paying food as a whole, as the ultimate guarantee for the smooth implementation of pensions.

In other words, it is to use the money of the world's rich and powerful as the basis for the pension of officials, and to supplement it with the worship of Li Shu. "

Zhu Youjian believed that, stimulated by the brand-new welfare benefits such as pensions, the measure of the gentry's payment of food in one package will be implemented more quickly and fully, and most officials will not hesitate to put the policy into practice when their personal interests are involved. Put it on a grain of rice.

Let them know that every liter of grain and rice and every cent of commercial tax they collect from which officials and gentry will be part of their own pensions. The latter are all stealing money from their own pockets, and this kind of behavior must be dealt with resolutely.

Zhu Youjian just wants officials all over the world to tear themselves apart from the old interest groups.

Reform is to replace the decayed old system with a new order that seriously hinders the development of productive forces, and to replace the old forces with new forces.

Stimulated by the dual benefits of salary increases for middle and low-level officials, dividends for middle and senior officials, and pensions for retired officials, those stubborn and conservative groups will be completely defeated.

These people have enjoyed the peace of Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years, but they have not made any active contributions to the country, and it is time to pay off their debts.

Of course, the purpose of Zhu Youjian's promotion of reforms is not just to benefit people in the system, but his most fundamental purpose is to provide more benefits to the common people all over the world.

After a few years of success in opening up wasteland and land in various places, the grain yield per mu and the total amount have been greatly increased, and the problem of food and clothing for most people has been solved, then it is time to focus on industrial development.

Vigorously develop the variety of industrial products, expand the quantity and quality of goods sold overseas, and replace traditional ceramics, tea and silk exports with more novel consumer goods, so as to obtain a more long-term and stable inflow of precious metals.

Zhu Youjian's goal is to form a global monopoly position in many industries. After earning more profits, he will implement free medical care and other social security covering most of the population in Daming, so that the bottom people in the world can get The most basic guarantee of survival.

The road is obstructed and long, and it is necessary to overcome all obstacles and eliminate all roadblocks.

Caring for the weak is the hallmark of a civilized society, and I will devote my whole life to creating this kind of social system.

There are tens of thousands of Ande Guangsha, sheltering the world with joy.

After the three-year rent-free tax is implemented now, and the tax is halved for another three years, the rent will be lowered to [-], so that the poor will have an extra bite to eat.

To strive for an early realization of the goal of supplementing agriculture with industry, there are too many things to do.

After the launch of the New Deal, the supervision will also be greatly strengthened. Those who are full and drink enough to suck blood from the people, no matter who they are, will be hit more ruthlessly.

"As for the distribution of pensions, the time when the imperial decree is issued shall prevail. Those who have previously retired from official positions are not included in the distribution. As for the payment amount, I initially plan to use half of the current monthly salary as the standard.

If the financial situation continues to improve and Taicang's annual income increases year by year, I will raise the salary standard again at the right time, and the pension will also increase. "

After Zhu Youjian said that, all the senior officials present here quickly figured out the amount of money they could get after retiring from office: 200 taels, and as long as the salary increases in the future, the pension they will receive will be even more.

Leaving aside the earth-shattering pension, this large amount of free money is more than enough to guarantee the expenses of a large family for a year, and it is also an expense with a relatively high standard of living.

Nothing to say, the emperor is really interesting.

They have all gone home for the elderly, no longer have any contribution to the imperial court, and can still get such a large amount of money for nothing. Such an emperor should preferably live for 1 years.

What Qin Huang Han Wu, Tang Zong Song Zu, are not worthy of carrying shoes for today!

Have they ever thought about the life of an official who has served the country for a lifetime, if he is not greedy or appropriative when he is in office, what kind of life can he live after returning home?

If anyone continues to make irresponsible remarks to the emperor, and to be obedient to others, then this kind of ungrateful person is only worthy of being imprisoned.

"My minister firmly supports the policy of paying the gentry as a whole to be implemented as soon as possible. Such a move that benefits the country and the people should not be delayed. The sooner it is implemented, the better!"

"I second the words of the chief assistant! If someone dares to obstruct it, I suggest to fight back with the strongest means!"

"With the respect of the suzerain and vassal, if you still have to pay the rent and tax to the court, why do the rest of you not pay it? I support this policy with both hands!"

"In this way, the imperial court's finances will be extremely rich. Even if the natural disaster continues, the imperial granary will have enough surplus food to help the affected people and help them tide over the difficulties, so that no more thieves will happen! There is also a strong guarantee, as long as the hearts of the soldiers and civilians are stable, then the great Ming Dynasty can be expected forever! This strategy is really wonderful!!"

Although they didn't want to oppose the emperor's gentry's one-to-one payment policy, the ministers who didn't want to implement it were stunned by the two magic weapons that the emperor suddenly sacrificed today.

Now even if they know that this is the emperor's established policy in order to force their own, and instead use a means to win people's hearts, what does it matter?

The emperor himself said that as long as he does things for him, he wants to be famous, and he wants to get a profit. Now that he has already paid a lot of money, it would be inappropriate not to take it, right?
Now that he has received a big gift from others, it would be even more inappropriate if he didn't try his best to help with things.

"I am so relieved that you have such an attitude!
In addition to releasing the matter in front of me as soon as possible, I have other plans! "

　Push the book, Three Kingdoms, the name is very strange "The Three Kingdoms Started from Saving Cao Cao's Father", it is to save Cao Cao's father, not Cao Cao's son to save Cao Cao.
