Crossing Wu Dalang starts from selling cakes

Chapter 354 New law!Two more!
Wu Zhi smiled and said: "Your Majesty, as long as the Song army fights, there will be casualties, and once the casualties need to be rescued in time, otherwise many people will die. Some soldiers could have lived, but they lost their lives in vain because no one rescued them! "

"Of course, there are doctors in the army, but too few are useless, so what I mean is to set up a nursing camp for the army, do wound care, deal with wound deterioration, etc., increase the chances of survival of soldiers, and reduce casualties on a large scale."

"You want to expand the Artillery Battalion and Musket Battalion, the Air Force, and the Nursing Battalion. I support you!"

Song Huizong: "However, expansion will cost a lot of money, right? The Liao Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom have already been wiped out. Can these things be slowed down?"

Wu Zhi smiled and said: "Your Majesty, the Liao Kingdom has a vast land and a large number of people, and more soldiers are needed to manage it.

Every place must have a certain amount of military strength, and the expansion of military camps by Weichen can be distributed and deployed, not only in Bianjing, but also in many places in Liao Kingdom. Air force and gun camps can be established!First, it can deter, and second, it can enhance national strength! "

"Although the Liao Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom are gone, it doesn't mean that the Song Dynasty does not need to be strengthened. On the contrary, if you want to keep these territories, you can't slack off. The Song Dynasty must be stronger!"

Song Huizong nodded: "It also makes sense! It's just such a big consumption, how much money do you get?"

"Your Majesty, in fact, if the money comes from the treasury, it is better to collect it from the outside!"

"Oh? You mean, collect taxes?"

Wu Zhi nodded: "Yes, the money in the national treasury does not move. It is time to adopt a new taxation model to make Da Song more abundant!"

"Then what kind of method?" Song Huizong asked.

Song Huizong was very interested in hearing what Wu Zhi said.

Wu Zhi said with a smile: "Didn't we try to collect taxes from small areas from merchants before? Now it can be spread across the country on a large scale! When the time comes, the tax revenue must be astronomical!"

"As for the boundaries of the Liao Kingdom, Da Song can ignore that side and collect taxes here, and wait until the time is ripe to start collecting taxes in the area! All the money collected can be used to strengthen the power of Da Song! There are also the fiefdoms of humble ministers. Yan Yun will also adopt this method."

Song Huizong hesitated for a moment when he heard the words: "It is a big event to collect taxes from all over the country in the Song Dynasty, but since you proposed it, King Yan, I think it is feasible!

As for King Yan's fiefdom...that's your territory, I don't need to worry about it, just do whatever you want!However, there must be no rebellion again! "

Song Huizong just finished speaking, but he smiled: "But with your methods, King Yan, I'm afraid this kind of situation will not happen, and even if it does, it's not a big deal!"

Song Huizong felt that he seemed to think too much.

If the Liao Kingdom can be defeated, King Yan's own fief management will naturally not be a problem.

Song Huizong said with a smile: "Now that Liao Kingdom has become the boundary of the Great Song Dynasty, how to govern the world is particularly important. You can tell what good governance methods the King of Yan has!"

Wu Zhi nodded. In this case, he expressed a lot of his thoughts.

In addition to these, Wu Zhi also discussed with Song Huizong about opening a bank in Song Dynasty.

This bank is also a big trend.

If it is released, it will naturally be very profitable, and it can also solve the problems of many people.

"A bank?" Song Huizong was a little curious about how Wu Zhi planned to operate.

Song Huizong was quite confident about what Wu Zhi had come up with.

Wu Zhi continued: "In the past, there were princes who reformed the law. They borrowed food and money from the people in the first half of each year, and charged them half of the interest in the first half of the year. It was also a way to help the people in the world when they harvested in the second half of the year. It's just this matter. There was a deviation in the following processing.

Some officials forced people to borrow money from them, and forced them to pay high interest by rolling interest. Many officials even added a lot of names and used extortion methods. As a result, this method made the people miserable. It has become a means and name for officials to lend money to earn interest. "

Song Huizong: "The king of Yan is right, but the establishment of a bank you proposed, these things may still be unavoidable!"

Wu Zhi: "This is also what I think, so while establishing a bank, we must also carry out certain reforms on the land of the world!"

"Oh? How to change it?"

"The gentry in the world occupy many people's fields, resulting in the tax revenue never coming up, and the tax is still borne by the people. This is why there are so many rebels in the Song Dynasty. These have to be improved!"

"We can take the method of recovering the land, establish an agricultural department, and issue loans to these officials through the bank, let them do it, set a quantity target every year, and let the officials of the agricultural department turn over the grain produced for repayment Loaned money!"

"And every year, you can calculate your political performance based on the amount of food you produce, and use this indicator to decide whether to be promoted, rewards and punishments. Of course, this method cannot be implemented in the Song Dynasty for the time being. Weichen can first operate in the Sixteen States of Yanyun. If the experiment is good It can be implemented throughout the Song Dynasty! But the bank can be established first!"

Song Huizong: "I'm afraid it's not easy to take back the land? After all, this will offend the gentry in the world!"

Song Huizong felt a little overwhelmed, he really didn't have the guts!

This is equivalent to touching the cake of the gentry all over the world. What if they don't do it, they want to get him down as an official?

The pressure is still great.

But thinking that it was Wu Zhi, Song Huizong also felt relieved.

Wu Zhi said with a smile: "The ones in the Song Dynasty should not be moved lightly, and you don't have to worry about it. We can take over the Yanyun Sixteen States first. If the Yanyun Sixteen States are implemented well, we can take a step back and implement it on the border of the Liao Kingdom first. If there is no problem in a large area, it can be promoted throughout the Song Dynasty!"

"This will mobilize the enthusiasm of officials all over the world, let them serve, and drive agricultural production! Of course, if those landowners and officials who have moved their interests want to resist, I will have my own way!"

"As for the implementation of this move, the people of the Song Dynasty can distribute money according to the level of labor they do! If the family's heirs are weak, they can take care of them a little bit. In short, they can't starve to death or suffer from famine. The number of thieves will be eradicated from the root."

Wu Zhi: "The disadvantage of this method is that there may be unequal division of labor, some people colluding with the government, relatives get preferential treatment and other loopholes, but every law has advantages and disadvantages, and now the territory of the Song Dynasty is expanding.

The most serious thing at present is that there are too many gentry lands in various places, and the frequent oppression of the people by the powerful landlords has caused many ordinary people to have no way out and be oppressed in various ways, which has led to many rebellious rebels! "

"If this method is adopted, although this situation will inevitably occur, the land in the hands of the gentry will be taken back to the state, and they will be given a lump sum of money, and the land will be rented to the common people. Everything will be made public and rationalized, so that every common man can share Obtaining land for farming will shorten the gap between the rich and the poor, reduce the interests of the gentry and increase the interests of the common people!"

"And the money for expropriating land doesn't need to be too high. What we are attacking are these toubob who are colluding with government and businessmen from various places!"

For example, the gentry occupied too much land, exploited the people to work for them, and evaded taxes, which made them richer and richer!And how can those oppressed people who can't make any money and food not hate it in their hearts?

They don't have enough to eat and are bullied, so they can only become bandits.

It is because there are too many overlords in these places, they live a happy and carefree life, but they suffer the common people of the world.

This is also the reason why so many people rebelled in Song Dynasty.

The toubob of various places, the most obvious ones are some gentry and outsiders, just like local capitalists, exploiting the common people.

And who do the gentry and the non-members refer to?Everyone knows this, and it's easy to understand.
