Chapter 409 The Disadvantages of the Feudal Dynasty

"My lord, you came up with this system of three provinces and six ministries based on the problem of high taxes that lead to poor people's hearts?"

At this time, Jia Xu no longer squinted his eyes and looked as steady as Mount Tai, because he felt that Ma Chao's system of three provinces and six ministries had nothing to do with the taxation and education he mentioned earlier.The system of three provinces and six ministries seems to have been prepared by him for many years, and today he just used this question to say it.

"Since this is the case, if we want to continue the education and morality, the Ministry of Rites must promote the education and increase investment in education; the Ministry of Punishment shall formulate a commercial fraud code and punish those lawbreakers according to the law; The famous family and wealthy households make them dare not to oppose the prestige of the Ma family; the household department collects taxes according to the population and income, trying to balance the income of the people under the rule, and the taxes collected are naturally used by the Ma family for urban renewal, enriching the people and rejuvenating the country... ..."

After listening to Ma Chao's answer, not only Jia Huhu believed it, but Yang Fu and Meng Da also believed it: the entire political system seemed to have nothing to do with the above-mentioned incident, but after Ma Chao's explanation, they found that if they want to completely put an end to the business that poisons morality It is really necessary to start with the five ministries of rites, punishments, soldiers, households, and workers. In this way, coupled with the previous bureaucracy and the top-down political system of the county magistrates, Let alone such small business matters, even all political affairs can be included in it!
The entire political system of the Ma family seems to be completely established at this moment.The rest is to subdivide the work of each specific item again.From then on, even after the world is pacified and the country is unified, it can be completely implemented in accordance with this!
The entire state assembly hall fell into silence here: those who understand, naturally think deeply about Ma Chao's unconstrained setting; those who don't understand, also think carefully about these three provinces in this silent atmosphere The advantages of the six-part system.

And Ma Chao also fell silent at this time, but he was naturally not silent about the three provinces and six ministries, but the root cause of the entire feudal society.Why is there a dispute between Yang Fu and Meng Da in the Ma family?In Ma Chao's view, the root cause is poverty!

And Ma Chao comes from an economic society, so he naturally knows the importance of business.Therefore, it is reasonable to choose the policy of developing business and Fuzhou County.But what about after being poor at the beginning and then becoming rich?These ancients didn't understand, which led to the differences between Yang Fu and Meng Da.

Yang Fu believed that wealth led to the collapse of the moral system; Meng Da believed that Yongzhou was not rich at all.But in the entire feudal society, even in any prosperous dynasty, have they really made the common people rich?
No!

The root of feudal society is the contradiction between big landlords and peasants.After the establishment of the dynasty, what did the ruler start to do?It is self-sufficiency, it is to adopt a policy of ignoring the people, so that the common people only know how to farm and starve, and endure the exploitation of big landlords from generation to generation.

For thousands of years, the common people depended on the sky for food, the output of the land was thin, and they had to endure the exploitation of natural disasters and man-made disasters.They have always been the main taxpayers in feudal society, but the poorer they are, the more they pay taxes, and the more they pay taxes, the poorer they are. In the end, they can't even eat, so they have no choice but to rebel.

A rebellion without the participation of farmers is only called a rebellion. There was no rebellion that could not be suppressed in a feudal dynasty, but once the peasants rebelled, it would mean the end of the dynasty, such as the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the past few years.And what after?It is another round of feudal brainwashing to fool the people.

The key to solving this problem is not, as Yang Fu said, according to the thinking of the ancients, let every common people live in dire straits, and arouse the compassion of the common people to help each other in the midst of hunger and cold.Instead, we should continue to take the road of commercial innovation, revitalize the economy of this feudal society, and make the whole society enter a fast-circulating economic society.

In fact, from the tax revenue of the Ma family this time, it can also be seen that commercial tax has gradually taken over the main force of the Ma family's taxation.And as long as there are enough commercial taxes, the farmers' taxes will be reduced.As long as farmers' taxes are reduced year by year while the economy grows year by year, the life of farmers will get better and better.At that time, the world will be unified, Haiyan and Heqing will be clear, and why will the peasants think about raising poles and revolting?
Therefore, maybe the Millennium Dynasty may really no longer be a dream.Of course, that time is too long. When it really comes, I am afraid that it will also be a comprehensive economic society, rather than a single farming and feudal society.Ma Chao thought to himself that he would not live to that time...

So at the moment, Ma Chao can only point out this path, using his ideas that have traveled through the millennium, to first establish the political system of the Ma family, and then guide the development of the entire rule.And if that didn't help, at least he had no regrets.

"Before I entered Chang'an, I asked the Ministry of Public Affairs to refine the evaluation, assessment, and process systems of the Ministry of Officials. I saw it yesterday, but it has something extraordinary and can be used to great effect. Therefore, a certain announced that the Ministry of Officials officially opened today. The Ma family was established. And the first Minister of the Ministry of Officials was..." At this point, Ma Chao suddenly found himself unable to continue.Because, the Ma family seems to have a lot of talents, but when it comes to filling the vacancies, they are still stretched.

Jia Xu, Fazheng, and Yang Fu had long held responsibilities, and other civil servants also held important positions.The two newcomers are not qualified enough to convince the crowd, and Li Ru's poisonous snake... Forget it, let's not mention him.

"My lord, there is still too much shortage of good ministers and talented people in the Ma family, and the position of Minister of the Ministry of Officials needs to understand the spirit of the Ma family's reform, and promote suitable people to fill the Ma family." Fazheng suddenly spoke at this time, and he stared at Ma Chao said carefully: "Since the lord succeeded to the throne, he has discerned people with discerning eyes. People, share your worries with the lord..."

Ma Chao sighed, he understood what Fazheng meant.At this time, the Ma family was just established, and the position of the official department was very important.Sometimes it is even more necessary to withstand the pressure of the officials to withdraw or promote talents, and it is most appropriate for him who currently has absolute power to exercise this power in troubled times.After all, Ma Chao has not proclaimed himself emperor yet, so he cannot go too far beyond the Han system.

"Therefore, it will be in accordance with what Master Bo said." After Ma Chao accepted the words, he continued with the matter of the government: "Today, the matter of the three provinces and six ministries is still left to the Ministry of Education to carefully consider and draft, and first come up with an outline. , and then gradually refine it after passing it.”

"I take orders from a lowly position." Jia Xu and Fazheng expressed their opinions, and couldn't help feeling a little pain in their foreheads: Being Ma Chao's subordinates is really a hard life. There are always such cloudy tasks, and it makes my head feel like a fight for several days... …

Seeing Jia Xu and Fazheng, the old and young foxes, had a headache, Ma Chao felt happy for no reason.After seeing the generals in the row on the right, Ma Chao realized that it was time for him to be appointed to the Ministry of War.

After the expansion of the Majiajun, it already has a scale of 5 people.But in the later battle of Qinguan, Fazheng accepted more than 1 Xiliang veterans under Niu Fu. After screening, almost [-] soldiers were left to join the army.In the Battle of Chang'an, although Ma Chao lost a lot of heavy armored cavalry and light cavalry, he had to come down. At this time, Ma Chao already had more than [-] soldiers and horses.At this moment, it is a matter of course to raise the rank of subordinates and divide the corps.

From this, Ma Chao said with a smile: "Since I have already served as Minister of the Ministry of Officials, I will first rectify the Ministry of War today. You know, it is still a chaotic time, the world has not yet settled down, and the Ma family is by no means living in a corner of Yongzhou." short-sighted family!"
