After one class, the students benefited a lot. Someone chased Jia Pingan and asked, "Uncle Wu Yang, you said earlier that the tax law is equal to or even higher than the national law. Why?"

Jia Pingan stopped, and a group of students surrounded him behind him.

Looking at these studious students, Jia Ping'an felt very relieved, "Whether it is the Qin and Han Dynasties or the Tang Dynasty, what is the foundation of a country?"

"force!"

This answer is reliable, but Jia Ping'an just smiled.

"culture."

This is also reliable, Jia Pingan feels that the students he teaches are really extraordinary.

but……

"The foundation of a country lies in taxes!" Jia Pingan has read history books, and the collapse of a country always begins with the collapse of finances. The army is good, but if the finances collapse, the army will also collapse..."

The former Han Dynasty fell on natural disasters, but the root cause was lack of money and food.

The follow-up of Datang actually fell on money and food.

Song Dynasty is better, but its finances are still on the verge of collapse.

Not to mention the Ming Dynasty, who couldn't even afford military pay, suffered disasters everywhere and had no money and food, and eventually civil upheavals broke out everywhere.

But what is the root cause of the lack of money and food?

"If the tax is not collected, if someone avoids the tax, there will be a shortage of money and food. When this trend comes together, do you remember the former man?"

"Remember!"

"Why did the Yellow Turban change in the former Han Dynasty? It was because there was no money and food, so the people waited for food under natural disasters, and finally rebelled." This is an endless cycle, but the former Han really had no money?Yes, money and food are in the hands of those people.But those people will not give anything to help the disaster..."

Someone understood Jia Ping'an's meaning and said: "Marquis Wuyang, if the tax revenue decreases, the Tang Dynasty will be helpless in the event of natural disasters. The government will also be short of money, so...the country will be lost."

This is true.

Jia Pingan was very pleased and said: "That's why someone said that tax is the first. If there is a problem with tax, it is digging the foundation of Datang."

The subsequent corruption of the Fubing system was partly due to land annexation.

But Datang's biggest problem is fleeing households.

Those dignitaries and temples are the two big groups lying on the body of the Tang Dynasty and sucking blood.

Datang continued to decline all the way, and the biggest problem was still the lack of money and food.

The land is constantly being merged, and the slow increase in the number of households can make the Minister of the Household Department want to hang himself, as if no one in the world has children and no separation of families.

In the end, when the land was concentrated in the hands of dignitaries and temples on a large scale, the Tang Dynasty became ill.

The so-called land equalization system has also become a joke. How can land be granted when there is no land?

But the new population needs land to cultivate!

This contradiction cannot be resolved, even if there is no An Lushan, there will be Wang Lushan.In addition, Xuanzong was fatuous in his later years and liked to enjoy himself. It is no wonder that the Tang Dynasty did not decline and die, as the clan's dignitaries had more money and who was more extravagant.

Jia Pingan felt that even though Huang Chao was bad in every way, the only good thing was to get rid of those so-called elites.

Seeing the thoughtful looks of the students, he knew that the bad medicine he gave to those people was enlightenment.In the future, these students will continue to study in this direction, and finally they will be able to analyze the root cause of Datang's financial problems, and then the world will suddenly realize who is Datang's gravedigger.

And the poor emperors will sharpen their knives and force those people to hand over the annexed land.

Thinking of this scene, Jia Ping'an was very happy.

He felt like an assassin, one hit and gone.

And no one knows that the reason for leveraging Datang's tax reform is today.

"Thank you Uncle Wuyang for clarifying the confusion." The students bowed, feeling that Jia Ping'an's eyes were like a torch, and he explained the truth of the rise and fall of the country from another angle, and he was indeed a great talent.

After Xiao Bo heard these words, he sighed to Chen Bao: "The old man regretted it."

Chen Bao asked, "Why?"

Xiao Bo thought of the current situation of his children and grandchildren at home, and couldn't help but feel very disappointed, "It might have been better if we let our children and grandchildren learn from Jia Ping'an."

Thinking of his son Chen Xiang's performance, Chen Bao was stunned, "Why do you have to sacrifice wine like this, I heard that the children who sacrificed wine are all outstanding..."

"It's useless!" Xiao Bo swears in a rare way: "I write poems and articles at home all day long, but when I ask about the way of running the world, I know very little."

Later, these comments were reported to Li Zhi.

"Tax?"

As an emperor, Li Zhi naturally knew the plight of Datang.

"Jia Pingan's words are very true."

Li Zhi was thinking about it.

Liang Jianfang entered Chang'an City in this kind of thinking.

carnival!

Groups of leaders were brought in, and the monarchs and ministers watched it together.

Jia Ping'an was also invited.

"My lords, drink this cup to the brim!"

Li Zhi raised his glass with a red face.

Everyone toasted and drank.

Liang Jianfang was completely elated, and he raised his glass and drank it.

"Lu Guogong, hahahaha!"

Those who arrived at Jia Ping'an's place were all small shrimps, which couldn't be compared with the big guys.

Liang Jianfang came with a wine jar, and the officials nearby got up quickly.

"Xiao Jia!"

Jia Pingan was shrinking back.

Li Zhi couldn't help laughing when he saw it: "Sure enough, no matter how talented you are, I'm afraid that General Liang will drink too much, so let's drink more!"
