Lu Dynasty

Chapter 566 Alertness
In order to catch up with the old woman, Huang Yueying actually used Pang Tong, an ugly man, as a top tank!The old woman glanced at Pang Tong and said with a smile, "Young man, you are so lucky to have found such a beautiful daughter-in-law. You have to treat her well!" Pang Tong almost fainted. , now that someone actually says she is beautiful, Pang Tong really wonders if the old woman's eyes can do it!In fact, this can't be blamed on the old woman. Huang Yueying's ugliness is compared to beautiful women. If she is compared with Diao Chan and Cai Yan, she will naturally be a bit ugly!But now that Huang Yueying is sitting next to Pang Tong, the dinosaurs have turned into angels!The old woman saw that Pang Tong nodded but did not speak. She smiled and said to Huang Yueying: "Little girl, I can't tell that your husband is quite shy! If you want to buy land in Sili, you don't have to worry about land tax at all. You are a genius." I came here, so I don’t know, we have no land tax, only transaction tax! If you don’t have the money to buy it, you can still rent the land! After ten years of planting, the land will belong to you!” Fang Fang explained it carefully to Huang Yueying and Pang Tong. Even though the old lady was illiterate, she made it very clear that the people are most concerned about policies that are closely related to their own interests!
Pang Tong was stunned after hearing my regulations. I don’t collect land taxes, and I even use money to buy the grain grown by ordinary people. He really doesn’t know how my court can maintain its operation. The part used also requires a lot of money!And Jingzhou has never recognized my system. In the eyes of the aristocratic family, my system is an obstacle to them, so people like Sima Hui have never studied the quality of my system. Pang Tong is Sima Hui's apprentice. He will not understand my system, because no one has explained it to him!The old woman's explanation made Pang Tong feel a little different. He held a teacup and listened to Huang Yueying chatting with the old woman in a daze.But Huang Yueying admires my courage. Since ancient times, there has never been a prince or monarch who would not accept the land tax from the people in his territory!Even if some monarchs sometimes show consideration for the people to reduce or exempt taxes, in places where land taxes are not collected or exempted in name, the local government will send people to apportion some miscellaneous taxes in disguise.I didn't collect land taxes, and even deprived the local government of the right to collect taxes. Huang Yueying sighed: "Since ancient times, there has been no monarch who has not collected land taxes. You are blessed!"

"Hey! Didn't you also come to Sili now? My blessing is your blessing! As long as you can become the people under Prime Minister Lu's rule, these policies will also be effective for you!" The old lady laughed: "Prime Minister Lu often said: "Han people should be brothers and compatriots. They should be united and reciprocal. No matter what position they are in, they must do good things and do practical things for the people! There is no distinction between high and low occupations. The key is whether we can let us Han people live happily! As long as they are big Han people, I hope everyone is equal!' Listen to what Prime Minister Lu said, only a good official who wholeheartedly serves the people can say this! If Prime Minister Lu can be the emperor, the people of the world will have a better life !"

Huang Yueying won't agree with me just because of a word, after all, I am only good to the people in the three prefectures of Sibingliang. In Jingzhou, I have long been described as a heinous tyrant by those aristocratic families!Huang Yueying looked at the way the old lady adored me and said with a smile: "Ma'am respects Prime Minister Lu very much! But, why did I see a lot of land that has been renovated when I passed by the farmland, and it was renovated twice?"

"Oh! You said that! It was requested by Prime Minister Lu. We have been doing it for almost ten years. I don't know why we did it. It seems that it can prevent pests! However, since we listened to Prime Minister Lu Start digging the soil one more time, and the pests that harm food like locusts and grasshoppers are indeed much less!" The old lady laughed and said, "Prime Minister Lu must have his reasons for wanting us to do this. Although I don't understand, Prime Minister Lu wants us to do this." We can do whatever we want! Without Prime Minister Lu, we would have died a long time ago, how could we live such a happy life! Prime Minister Lu will not harm us, even if he really wanted to harm us, we would be willing to do it for him Death! A few days ago, we heard that Liangzhou and Bingzhou were beating foreigners and Yuan Shao, the most insignificant man who colluded with foreigners. We went to the government office together and wanted to donate food and money to the imperial court, but the imperial court issued an order:' The people only need to perform military service and join the army according to the law. If it is time for the people to donate food, the imperial court will order it! The imperial court only hopes that the common people will take in more refugees, widowed elderly, and children from other states and counties to reduce the burden on the imperial court. Beware of spies!'Look, this is our imperial court! Not only do we not exploit the people after such a big incident, but we don't even want anything we voluntarily give away! Officials from the imperial court come to inspect and drink a sip of water from us at most. They will give money for food, saying that it is the discipline and principles set by Prime Minister Lu. If you violate it, you will be dismissed from office, and you will be killed if you are serious!" The more the old man talked, the more addicted she was. In fact, what she said was that I followed the regulations of the Eighth Route Army back then. The things produced are already normal in modern times, but these people are very grateful and love me and the court because of these things!
Huang Yueying has seen a lot of differences between Sili and other places, and she doesn't know much about the system, so she doesn't understand the benefits of my system!As for the matter of farming that the old lady said, although Huang Yueying is very talented, she will not care about farming matters and policies. After all, she is a girl, so after listening to the old lady's words, Huang Yueying is fine. But Pang Tong understands what these systems of mine represent. This represents the hearts of the people and my position in the hearts of the Sili and even the people of the world. My cohesion has surpassed all the princes in the world!Surprised, Pang Tong asked a very incompetent question: "I heard that Lu Feng died after being hit by Yuan Shao's poisoned arrow. Will the policies under his rule not change?"

You know, my people have done propaganda to the people, asking them to be careful of spies and spies, and never leak our military secrets in casual chats.In addition, as long as people have children, their children are eligible to enter the college to study. Through their children to influence their parents, the people under my command have become very vigilant, much like the people in the CCP’s anti-Japanese base areas back then!Now my life and death are the biggest secrets of our army. The question raised by Pang Tong immediately made the old woman vigilant. The old woman stared at Pang Tong and Huang Yueying and asked, "Who are you?"
