The ministers left the morning hall one after another.

As for Chun Yuyue and Feng Quji, they were arguing because of disagreement after they left the morning hall.

"Well, you are a Confucian, so shameless, you forced the old man to place a bet."

"Now that I have lost, I still bite back and ask the old man to pay 400 million yuan first, while you only pay 200 million yuan."

"It sounds nice to lend it to you, but the money must have been wasted!"

"Are all Confucians so shameless? Chunyu Yue, why don't you die?"

Feng Quji was about to explode with rage.

He was so angry that he cursed directly.

Losing 300 million yuan is already distressing enough.

He just left the Zaochao Hall and wanted to raise money, but Chunyu Yue followed him.

He said that he had no money, and asked Feng Quji to be more generous. He would give 400 million first, but he could only give 200 million.

After he recovers from this, he will return 100 million to Feng Quji.

"Old Feng, do you think I don't know you, and your Feng family will have no money?"

"You have been greedy for a lot these years! But I am a great Confucian, how can I get so much money?"

"You can do me a favor, please help me! I have a Ph.D. How can I have so much money?"

Chunyu Yue had an old face, and this old Feng really did.

If you don't give it, you won't give it, why bother to scold others?

"Go away~~!"

Feng Quji roared, turned his head and left.

He had never seen such a brazen person.

He has no time to spend here, he has to go home and collect money.

But remember the words of the ninth son, if you don't make up 300 million before dark.

Ransacked homes, ransacked all families!

Ninth Young Master is really ruthless!

Zhangtai Palace, in the Imperial Study Room.

Ying Zheng saw Zhang Han walking in.

Hastily put down the pen in his hand, and hurriedly asked:

"General Zhang, how is the situation?"

Zhang Han bowed and cupped his hands.

"Your Majesty, there is news from the dark guards of the Black Ice Platform."

"After you left the court, the ninth son ordered Chun Yuyue and Feng Quji to pay 600 million yuan to the treasury before dark!"

Ying Zheng was stunned: "That's it? Will they hand it in obediently?"

He knows those ministers too well, they are all old and cunning people, how can it be possible to ask them to pay honestly.

"More than that, the Ninth Young Master gave the Lulu Sword to that kid Wang Li."

"Let Wang Li guard, if they don't pay 600 million yuan before dark, they will... be executed all over the house!"

Ying Zheng's eyes lit up.

"it is good!"

"I didn't expect that kid to use this trick to get them to pay."

"I thought he couldn't handle it well, so I was worried about him for nothing."

Zhang Han hesitated to speak, wondering if His Majesty would be furious if he knew more about it later?

"What else?"

Ying Zheng saw that Zhang Han hesitated to speak.

Zhang Han smiled wryly: "Your Majesty, there are two more important matters."

"Big thing? Let's hear it."

Ying Zheng was a little curious, and the important things that Zhang Han said probably carried some weight.

Zhang Han explained the tax reform in detail.

Ying Zheng smiled and said, "This is a good thing. As long as Ziye can reform successfully, it's not impossible to give him the crown prince."

"It's just that this matter is destined to be difficult. Those ministers are not vegetarians."

What Yingzheng knew best were the ministers, who were smarter than each other.

If it was a conventional method, those ministers might not necessarily listen to Ziye.

As for whether he can succeed, it depends on Ziye's ability.

"What's the other thing?"

Ying Zheng asked about the second matter with great interest.

Zhang Han glanced at Shi Huangdi and saw that he was in a good mood.

"Ninth Young Master wants to open a storehouse to relieve disasters and save the people of the world."

After Zhang Han finished speaking, he became a little apprehensive.

"Bullshit!"

"Does he not know that this granary is a strategic material for the army?"

Ying Zheng was furious, thinking that the boy had made progress.

Unexpectedly, it was only the first day that a warehouse would be opened for disaster relief.

This is the material of the Great Qin army, and no one can touch it.

Even if he wants to move these grains, he has to worry a lot.

"Your Majesty calm down, the Ninth Young Master said that he has found a solution to the food shortage and will announce it tomorrow."

"And the Ninth Young Master is also for the sake of the people of the world, His Majesty calm down!"

"Ninth Young Master said that he will open a storehouse for disaster relief, and he will come to explain to His Majesty."

Zhang Han was really afraid that the first emperor would be angry, so he took back the power of supervising the country.

He thinks Mr. Jiu is right, but the premise is that there is really a way to solve the problem of food shortage.

Ying Zheng's eyes drooped slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

It took a while before he looked up.

"In that case, let's wait for this kid to explain it before making a conclusion!"

"Anything else?"

Although he is the first emperor, he has no better way to deal with these natural disasters, people starving, or even starving to death.

If Ziye really has a way to solve these problems, it proves that he has the ability to manage the country well.

If there is no satisfactory answer when midnight comes, he will consider taking back the power to supervise the country.

Zhang Han was relieved to see that Emperor Shihuang had calmed down again.

Then he continued to talk about what happened to the hall early.

He even talked about the quarrel between Chunyu Yue and Feng Quji.

Ying Zheng was also amused after hearing this.

And the matter of the early court meeting quickly spread throughout Xianyang City.

At this speed, I believe it will soon spread to every corner of Daqin.

In the city of Xianyang.

When the people learned that the imperial court wanted to exempt taxes, reform taxes, and open warehouses for disaster relief, their first reaction was disbelief and rumors.

Everyone knows that Daqin has the heaviest taxation, so how could it be suddenly exempted from taxation?

Only those with more than [-] mu of land have to pay taxes, and the population tax and miscellaneous taxes are all exempted. How is this possible?

The nobles ceded the land, and the common people divided the land?is it possible?

Many people in the counties couldn't afford to eat, and some even died of starvation. The people in Xianyang City knew about this.

Because they are in Xianyang City, the situation is a little better, so they won't starve to death so quickly.

Now that the imperial court actually opened a storehouse for disaster relief, no matter how you think about it, it feels unreliable!

Most of the people didn't believe it, and ran to the bulletin board where the imperial list was posted.

The bulletin board was already overcrowded, and an official was repeating the memorial in his hand.

"The Ninth Prince has an order that the nobles cede the land and the common people divide the land! It will be executed immediately!"

"The common people are exempted from oral and miscellaneous taxes! Those with less than [-] acres of fertile land do not need to pay taxes!"

"In the future, when the government confiscates the fertile land, it will replenish the people who have less than a hundred acres of fertile land."

"The Ninth Prince has an order to open a storehouse for disaster relief, so that the people of the world will not eat the bark!"

When the common people heard the words of the official on the bulletin board, they all knew that it was true, and the common people burst into tears.

They all knelt down to express their gratitude, thank you Ninth Young Master!

"Ninth Young Master cares about the common people, God bless me Daqin!"

"The imperial court extended a helping hand to save our people, kneel down to thank His Majesty the First Emperor, and kneel down to thank Prince Nine!"

"No, I'm going to tell my distant cousin the news! Now you don't have to starve to death!"

"That's right, I'm going to tell my grandma, the imperial court saved our family!"

The people were excited and started running.

Tell more people who don't know the news.

These things are great things!

There is no need to be hungry for the time being, and there are still fields to divide.

As long as there is land to cultivate, they will not starve to death!

Although this may not be fertile land for a long time.

And such things are being staged in front of the public notice boards in Xianyang City.

Reduction and exemption of common people's oral and miscellaneous taxes made the burden on them much lighter at once.

You must know that the taxes collected by Daqin are very heavy!

The common people are only interested in reducing taxes and opening warehouses for disaster relief.

For the distribution of fertile land and the collection of noble taxes, they think it is impossible.

Over the years, the aristocracy is like a big mountain pressing on their heads.

They were so crushed that they couldn't resist even if they wanted to.

They have long been accustomed to the presence of nobles.

They just want to be able to eat enough under the noble family, but the nobles act domineeringly, and often the food they get is not enough for the family to last for a long time.

Even if the imperial court ordered to levy noble taxes and collect fertile land, they felt that it was unlikely to succeed.

It is not a secret that these nobles and gentry colluded with people from the local government.

They are unwilling to say more about these things that have no success rate.
