Dominate Marvel

The existence of civilization is based on human beings. In human existence, eating is the first priority.

No matter how many ideals and ambitions you have, you must first fill your stomach. Agriculture is the foundation of all industries and the foundation of the country.

All dynasties have emphasized the importance of agriculture, and for this reason they have not hesitated to suppress any other industry and ensure the stability of agriculture.

Scholars sought solutions, and the emperor offered sacrifices to heaven and earth. Many explorations have been carried out in agricultural affairs, and the results produced include essential skills for improving the people's health and so on.

But in the end, this problem cannot be fundamentally solved. In fact, the issue of eating is also the most important factor affecting the change of dynasties.

If this problem cannot be solved, the first foundation of the Eternal Dynasty is not available, and there is no way to talk about the other ones.

When a dynasty is established, from its inception to its development to its peak, the decline is often accompanied by the phenomenon of not having enough to eat.

Now, in Zheng Yunzhi's opinion, this problem has finally been solved - the yield per mu is far more than multiple times, the cycle is two months, and it is not afraid of severe cold, drought and waterlogging. There will be no more fear of hunger or cold.

You can imagine how excited he is.

Just three counties, with more than 100,000 people, and 600,000 acres of wasteland can feed 7 million people in Henan Province. What kind of shock is this? !

Three months, and the second season of Three months is out again. No wonder there is no food to eat.

When the planned 100 million acres of fertile fields are harvested, the whole of Henan will be a paradise on earth lying on the grain pile.

The shocking fact of Nanyang's great harvest is even more earth-shattering among the people!

Yuzhou.

Outside the city, countless people stood on the edge of the fields, crying bitterly as they looked at the golden sea of ​​wheat being harvested. Natural and man-made disasters, no one understands the difficulty of survival better than people in troubled times. Drought, floods, thieves, evil officials, disasters over and over again, the despair cannot be expressed in words.

Now the sky is finally open and the moon is shining brightly!

"God has eyes!"

An old man knelt on the edge of the field, clasping the soil with his hands and knocking his head one after another.

"Master Ying Qingtian's parents, even death is not enough to repay you!"

A young man held his child and cried loudly.

Vitality and hope are flourishing in people's hearts, pairs of eyes are no longer numb, and dry faces reveal smiles and longing while crying.

Those who have not harvested yet look at those who are harvesting, and they are thinking about their own land. Those clusters of wheat and the handfuls of wheat grains are so cute!

"There are five people in my family, and they are allotted twenty-five acres of land. The yield per mu is more than ten stones. Twenty-five acres... let me do the math..."

"At least two hundred and fifty kilograms!" someone nearby shouted: "One hundred and twenty kilograms per stone, at least thirty thousand kilograms of harvest."

"It's still dry goods!" Someone said: "The yield is twelve stones per mu, which is measured after drying."

"Immortal seeds!" Someone sighed: "Earlier the government said that they would change the seeds, but we were not willing to come."

People sneered. In fact, there were quite a few people who were unhappy at the time.

If Zheng Yunzhi and others had not managed the administration properly in Yuzhou at that time, there might be people who were unwilling to change seeds and secretly planted the seeds they had hidden before. At this time, they would have cried to heaven and earth.

"Master Ying promised 20 acres of land per capita, but it's not enough now." Someone said: "When this is recovered, I have to step up land reclamation and make up 120 acres for our family of six!"

"You're like a hemp stalk. How can you finish planting 120 acres?" Someone joked.

"Why can't I plant?" The man said anxiously, "I...I...I..."

"Hahaha...."

Laughing a lot.

Indeed, one acre and twenty acres is not a small area. There are six people in a household, and there are three strong laborers. On average, each person has to bear 40 acres of land.

“As for whether to sow or not, let’s sow first!”

The area outside Yuzhou City is just a microcosm, with 600,000 acres of land. As word of the earth-shattering yield per mu spread, it first spread to Yexian and Wuyang, then spread throughout Nanyang, and quickly spread to all of Henan.

Even outside Henan, Huguang, Huainan Fengyang and even Guanzhong have gradually heard about it.

Those who have permanent property have perseverance, and those who have hope will have stable hearts.

And at this time, Ying Yi's humane energy skyrocketed!

In just a few days, it quickly increased from 200,000 to 300,000, and it continued to hit higher peaks!

No matter how big the land is occupied, no matter how many battles are won, the hearts of the people will not be able to surrender and the order will be stable!

Kaifeng, Ying Mansion, Ying Yi put his hands behind his back and looked happy.

Not to mention the bumper harvest in the three counties of Nanyang and the surge in humanity, Ying Yi breathed a sigh of relief. In various prefectures and counties in Henan, more than 7 million people are in desperate need of food after the ravages of bandits and disasters. It’s really hard to last long with surplus food. Although a bumper harvest is certain, it was already destined when the three counties of Nanyang were cleared for farming, but it has not yet been realized.

Now that it has been achieved, Ying Yi is stable.

Not only Ying Yi, but with the news of a bumper harvest in the three counties, the entire Ying Yi's subordinates, both military and political, became even more high-spirited. Everyone feels more motivated, and everyone feels that the dragon is in sight.

If so, your natural energy will be high and you will be more energetic in whatever you do.

At the same time, the real reason for the bumper harvest in the three counties of Nanyang was deliberately publicized by the Zhoumu Yamen, which also made the plan to open up hundreds of millions of acres of land more smoothly.

The facts are visible, so what reason do people have to hesitate?

At the time of harvest in the three counties, Sun Xiucai also produced the second draft of the law under Ying Yi's rule - the first was a program, similar to the constitution, confirming the idea of ​​great unification and identifying the core of Ying Yi's destiny. All other laws must be compiled based on this guideline.

This second part, that is, the first law under the program, was finally released during the harvest season in the three counties - the tax law!

Yes, tax law comes first.

This tax law synthesizes the essence of all dynasties and was born in line with Ying Yi's wishes. The tax law is temporarily divided into two parts: agricultural tax and commercial tax. After all, it is only a draft, and it will probably take some time for all aspects of the tax laws to be completely perfected.

Taxation is an extremely complex issue, and there are countless exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes in the past dynasties. For example, when a new dynasty was first established, there was a stipulation of thirty pounds of tax, which meant that for farmers, if their harvest was thirty pounds, they would only pay one pound of tax. Looks very light. But in fact, in addition to regular taxes, there are many exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes. The taxes collected by the government account for almost half, or even 70 to 80%, of what the people earn.

In his prime, he was still passable. During the famine years, they were immediately brought back to their original shape.

Here in Yingyi, agricultural taxes are completely unified, all excessive levies and miscellaneous taxes are eliminated, and a ten-five tax is temporarily implemented. That is to say, half of the people's harvest is collected as tax.

Very dark, right?

However, after excluding all excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, this is not a heavy tax. What's more, the grain output is soaring. For example, if a household has 25 acres, if they receive 250 dan and turn in 125 dan, they still have a surplus of 125 dan.

One stone weighs one hundred and twenty kilograms, totaling fifteen thousand kilograms. Even if a family of five eats twenty kilograms of grain a day, it only amounts to six hundred kilograms a month. It’s only 7,200 kilograms a year. No matter how big-bellied a man is, he still has a lot of surplus.
