Chapter 2164 Flower Controversy (72)
Chapter 1 of A Dream of Red Mansions, Jin Yiwei came to Ningguo Mansion to ransack the house.

At that time, Jia's mansion was holding a banquet, and Jia Zheng was still surprised when he heard the servant report that he had nothing to do with Zhao Tangguan, so why did he come?

Not long after, Tangguan Zhao came in with a smile on his face, as if he didn't have any malicious intentions.

"Stop," said Bonaparte impatiently.

"What?" she asked impatiently.

"Will he remain in the place where he was imprisoned all his life?" said Bonaparte.

"You have to be patient..."

Before she could finish speaking, he stood up.

Georgiana quickly skimmed through the description of everyone's reactions when the sudden change occurred, and began to read what Nick had written.

Comparing European countries, the situation of France and the Qing court is the most similar. The fiscal and taxation system of the Qing court is very close to the "taxation and self-enrichment" system in the 17th and 18th centuries. The taxpayers were once criticized as "monsters that should be smashed" because they "Plunder without accepting any punishment", and finally the anger of the French Revolution buried this system and the old days of France.

In contrast, the British taxation ratio in the same period was higher than that of France, and it was also much higher than that of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. In the four-corner system of the United Kingdom, its superiority lies in its effective taxation system, especially compared with the bonded system of France. Expropriation and economic fluctuations.

The inefficiency of taxation makes local governments have to use various names other than the "one whip law" to search for emergencies such as military affairs, and this is also what opponents of the "one whip law" criticize as "clear taxes are light and secret The model of "heavy taxes, excessive taxation and miscellaneous factions" bottomless pit.In the name of tribute, corruption and inefficient taxation formed a vicious circle, resulting in overstaffing and bloated institutions. The Ming Dynasty abolished a whip in the Wanli year, but the Qing Dynasty continued to use it, leading the country into a situation similar to the Ningguo Mansion.

He Shen is a bit similar to Wang Xifeng. Whether it is discussing crimes or other reforms, it only treats the symptoms but not the root cause. The reason for "people's poverty" is not that taxes are too heavy, but that low tax rates do not benefit ordinary farmers, but instead encourage large and small landlords to increase exploitation and bureaucrats to impose additional taxes.Supervision from top to bottom is like a game of cat and mouse. Officials at every level can fill their pockets through corruption, and the tax revenue is lost in the middle. Tributary is an efficient way of tax collection, but it cannot become the mainstream reform idea of ​​taxation.

For example, in the actual implementation process of the issuance of "reclamation permits", only rich people and bureaucrats with certain strengths can obtain the right to land reclamation, and ordinary people belonging to the bottom have failed to apply for reclamation, so they can only be hired by others and become tenant farmers. , This is another disadvantage of the "one whip" that exists in the social structure.Even though Taiwan, which is vast and sparsely populated, is similar to the New World, ordinary people still cannot obtain the means of production like the pioneers in the United States, and have the opportunity to become farmers.

They will feel that they have been oppressed, so that these people have the motivation to launch an uprising, but not the motivation to organize production.Taking Juren as an example, in order to avoid disputes, the government will briefly review and send people to investigate, and after 5 months of announcement, no one expresses any objection and it will be issued. The application method can be a joint venture or a sole proprietorship.

There is a Chinese proverb: The son owes the father the debt, but the father does not know what the son owes.

When selling the real estate left by his father, the main thing is that the land property needs to be confirmed by all brothers, or the father personally confirmed it. However, Juren is the only son, and his father is an outsider. During the 5 months of the public announcement, no one raised the meaning for him. , and the family applying for the license has multiple brothers.

This proverb is based on the patriarchal and family law systems, and belongs to a relatively primitive social system. The local wealthy clans fought for the water conservancy to irrigate the farmland, which is the private fighting prohibited by the Shang Yang Reform. The contract could not produce much effect in dealing with the disputes at that time, especially when the magistrate had some kind of cooperative relationship with the local gentry who was familiar with the situation.

Lin Yuhua exposed the injustice of the government by hanging a lamp, was dispatched to XJ, and almost died on the way.

Nick was fortunate that his father was just a notary and not a tax collector, otherwise their family would not be safe and sound, but might face the same fate as Lavoisier.

Georgiana paused at this point.

"Why did you stop?" asked Bonaparte.

"Lavoisier is a taxpayer, but the knowledge he discovered benefits the entire human race, but slanders him..."

"I know that history." Bonaparte interrupted her. "No one will listen to what you just said."

She said nothing.

He walked over and flipped through a few pages of the book in her hand, "Let's start reading from here."

She bowed her head.

During the waiting time, Nick has been learning Chinese and political knowledge, and occasionally he will chat about his meeting in the capital.

Once he went to the "Thousand Step Corridor", which is where the Sixth Department and the Military Aircraft Affairs Office are located. The east one is connected to the right gate of Chang'an Gate, and the west one is connected to the left gate of Chang'an Gate.Before the palace examination, the tribute students who have been on the gold list must gather in the Qianbu corridor on the left, and then line up to enter the palace and accept the emperor's canonization. Only in this way can they officially become Jinshi, just like a fish leaping over a dragon gate, so Chang'an left gate is called For "Dragon Gate".

The right door is the imperial court's rule that each province must report the death penalty to the Ministry of Criminal Justice before the autumn. These messengers will take the lead in gathering at the Qianbu Corridor on the west side. It is called "Autumn Trial", so the common people call it "Humen".

Left green dragon, right white tiger, east green dragon, west white tiger.

If you find the wrong north and choose the wrong Thousand-step Corridor, you will have a completely different fate. In the Tang Dynasty, there was also a Thousand-Step Corridor. Civil and military officials at that time would give food under the corridor outside the department where they were located after retreating. It was called "Corridor Food". .

In Chapter 1 of A Dream of Red Mansions, Mao Banxian calculated a hexagram for Jia Zhen, "the white tiger lays down the corpse". Perhaps what he was talking about was not Youshi's illness, but also the deserted courtyard after the death of the concubine Yuan.

Hearing that someone said they came to search the house, the book described that Wang Xifeng opened his eyes, and then fell to the ground on his back and "died". Jia Zhen called Wang Xifeng her eldest sister, and Jia Rong was also very close to Wang Xifeng.However, she didn't really die, but was imprisoned in a big prison, and Grandma Liu visited her.

That day Juren planned to go to the Qin Tianjian in the east, and while there was no one around, he secretly took a steamed bun from his arms and ate it, as if it was a meal of "corridor food".

Cao Xi didn't treat the two of them badly, and there was meat and wine for every meal, but to Juren, this meal was undoubtedly "prison food", and he had never eaten prison food when he grew up.

"Whether it's about killing or cutting, it's okay to have a good time."

Nick didn't want to stay in this yard any longer. If possible, he hoped to return to China.

If Juren has a home and land, then he can take out the silver in the bank, dig a hole, and bury it in the yard, just like in the story of "There is no silver in this place for 300 taels".

But he didn't have it, so he could only put it in the bank.

Nick's father once asked him when he could be a responsible person.

Nick replied at the time: I am not ready to be responsible to anyone, but I promise you that when I am, I will fight for her and never give up.

"Why 'she' and not 'he'?" Bonaparte said very unhappy.

She really didn't know how to explain it.

If she couldn't explain it, she didn't explain it, and she continued to read the following content.
