Chapter 835: Issue bonds and bleed the landowners and gentry!

"Let the landowners and gentry in Fengyang County pay for this money! The elder will go back later and draft an official document, saying that I, in the name of King Fengyang, will sell 50 million taels of bonds, and the bond period is five years. Years’ time! In five years, the Lin family will repay them with interest!”

Lin Biao and the other three looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what it meant.

Lin Biao smiled bitterly and said: "My lord, you may not know that those landlords and gentry have money in their pockets, but getting them to pay for it is more difficult than beating them in the ribs! It's hard to borrow money these days, and it's even harder to get debt! These things The guys are all hot!”

Lin Yun smiled sinisterly, opened the drawer, and threw a folder on the table.

"Great Elder, look at this trick from me!"

With curiosity, Lin Biao opened the secret fold. When he saw the content inside, he was stunned.

The general content is to reduce taxes on ordinary people, but increase high taxes on the landlords and gentry.

"My lord, I'm afraid this will be difficult to implement! The Daduan Dynasty has long stipulated that the landowners and gentry do not need to pay taxes! This policy has been implemented for thousands of years. Even if the dynasty changes, the emperors of the past dynasties would not dare to offend this group! This time you are carrying out land The reform has made them resentful, and if they implement this policy again, there will probably be big trouble! "

Lin Fuling and Jiang Kun both sighed inwardly. They could vaguely feel that the concepts and policies proposed by Lin Yun were beneficial to the country and the people. They were of great help to the vassal king's rule and were also very beneficial to the people.

But if you offend these landlords and gentry, you will be in big trouble. These people will definitely make trouble, and they may even spend money to carry out a military coup.

Lin Yun walked around the desk and came to Lin Biao, looking down at him.

"Great Elder, the policy introduced by this king now must be implemented. I am not discussing it with you, but asking you to implement it!"

"But..." Lin Biao was already sweating.

In his opinion, Lin Yun was forcing the landlords and gentry to unite in rebellion.

If this policy can be implemented smoothly, it will be of great benefit to the vassal king. However, if it cannot be implemented or fails, the Lin family will completely lose their prestige in the hearts of the Fengyang County landlords and gentry.

This is not conducive to the rule of the feudal king.

Lin Yunwan said: "First elder, listen to what I have to say! This policy must be implemented, but if those landlords and gentry are willing to buy the bonds launched by the Lin family, they can continue to enjoy the tax exemption policy for landlords and gentry!"

As soon as these words came out, the three of them suddenly realized it, and when they looked at Lin Yun, their eyes showed admiration.

This is clearly posing a problem for the landlords and gentry, whether they plan to spend a lump sum to buy peace, or choose to be bloodletted slowly.

Lin Yun continued: "In addition, if the news is passed on, those landlords and gentry had better give up the idea of ​​​​escape! I will gradually spread these policies to the entire Daduan Dynasty. They can escape, but the monks cannot escape the temple. ! I don’t believe they can escape from the country!”

Lin Biao took a deep breath, clasped his fists and said, "My lord, I have learned a lesson from you! No matter what, even if I risk my life, I will definitely implement these two policies!"

Lin Yun nodded: "Okay, this is what you said! I will give you another month to complete this matter! If you complete it within one month, I will reward you heavily! If you fail to complete it within a month, I will take your Head!"

"I obey your orders! I'm leaving!"

After that, Lin Biao turned and left.

When he walked out of the study room, he breathed a secret sigh of relief. He was already covered in sweat and the elder's robe was soaked, which showed how much pressure Lin Yun put on him.

Lin Yun sat down again, waved his hand and said: "Everyone, sit down! Don't get tired standing!"

Lin Fuling and Jiang Kun looked at each other before sitting on the chairs, but they were sitting upright and did not dare to relax at all. This look seemed like the temperament of the supreme commander of an army of 200,000 people.

Lin Yun showed an intriguing smile: "Do you know what I am going to say next?"

Lin Fuling said: "The military reform has been completed, so I will guess that the prince is planning to officially change the uniforms of the Lin family army, right?"

"Not bad! General Fuling's response is really fast! I believe you two have been waiting for this day for a long time, right?" Lin Fuling and Jiang Kun both nodded with a wry smile.

The power of Niubei Village is right under their noses, and it is impossible not to envy it.

If we use a metaphor, the current Niubei Village and the Lin family are Lin Yun's biological sons.

But for so many years, Lin Yun has always been partial, giving everything good to Niubei Village.

But Lin Jiajun could only watch helplessly, not even qualified to smell it.

Especially Jiang Kun, he followed Lin Yun only a little later than Zheng Li.

But now Zheng Lili has become a high-ranking official in the National Academy of Sciences, with a first-class official title, and a proper official of the border.

But he, Jiang Kun, was still working for the Lin family army, and he was still a deputy.

"Fourteenth Master, if you don't change the clothes of the Lin family army, even the humble people will have a problem with you!"

"Haha!" Lin Yun raised his head and laughed, pointing at Jiang Kun.

"You finally said it! Hey, I have really wronged you all these years! If you had followed me to the capital back then, you would probably be a high official now!"

Jiang Kun curled his lips and said: "The Fourteenth Master has been drawing big cakes for me many years ago, and today I haven't finished it yet! The General is a little jealous, but he is not angry with the Fourteenth Master! After all, There must be someone to share your worries! As long as the Fourteenth Master still remembers the general, he will accept it even if he has to suffer for another ten years!"

Hearing what he said, Lin Yun was also a little moved.

Jiang Kun and Ah San are the most down-to-earth and hard-working people.

Lin Yun really felt sorry for them.

Jiang Kun aside, Ah Sanke has been working hard and without complaint, training a steady stream of soldiers with strict military disciplines for him in Niubei Village.

Moreover, it also protects the safety of Niubei Village.

It can be said that hard work pays off.

"Okay! Don't be jealous, kid! You have really come forward this time! Next, I plan to set up a direct governor in Jiangxia County. He will be a first-class official and will directly obey my orders. He has two responsibilities. One is to monitor Jiangxia King Qi Rui, and the other is to radiate the influence of the imperial court to the territories of other vassals with different surnames! "

"How's it going? Are you interested?"

Jiang Kun stood up suddenly, with an excited look on his face: "As long as the Fourteenth Master trusts the general, the general will be killed!"

Lin Fuling on the side was extremely envious.

Never in his wildest dreams did he imagine that Jiang Kun, who had been depressed and frustrated in the Lin family for many years, would suddenly leap over the dragon's gate.

You must know that the status of the direct governor is equal to that of the vassal king, and his power is overwhelming.

This shows how much Lin Yun trusts and values ​​Jiang Kun.

Lin Yun nodded with satisfaction: "I estimate that I will stay in Fengyang County for a while. When you return to the capital, you will go with me! Once you are registered as an official in the capital, I will officially take office!"

Jiang Kun knelt down on one knee and said respectfully: "I humbly obey my orders!"
