Please, let me be a fool

At this moment, he was very moved, but fortunately he was stable enough to not show it. Instead, he took a deep breath, took out a few copies from his sleeve, and said, "I think that if you want to increase the revenue of the treasury, you should start from the tax system. Hands on."

"My Great Wei's tax system has continued from the previous dynasty, and has great drawbacks. Although it has been reformed during the previous emperor's period, there are still many imperfections that need to be strengthened."

"The minister has thought of a method at home in the past few days, and wrote it down in detail. Your Majesty and a few colleagues can take a look."

"I believe that if it can be implemented smoothly, the court will definitely be able to greatly increase tax revenue and ease the pressure on the national treasury."

As he spoke, he put those notes one by one in front of several cabinet scholars.

The last book was presented respectfully.

On his face, he couldn't help showing a little excitement.

Song Gongwen thought so.

This first memorial of mine will definitely win His Majesty's support!

The old man wants to reform the tax system?

Wei Yunyi heard the words.

Suddenly there was a bad feeling.

Especially when he opened the memorial and saw the first four words, his eyes changed.

Divide into mu?Is that what I understand?

No way?

Wei Yunyi's expression changed slightly.

Then he read it quickly and read the contents.

Now he very much hopes that the two are just the same name, and the rest are completely different.

But when he saw the book from beginning to end and understood what was written in the booklet, he immediately confirmed that what was written in it was the one he knew, and it was exactly the same, which completely abolished the poll tax!

At this moment, he never expected that the other party's first memorial would be to reform the tax system.

And it's such a big killer!

Immediately, Wei Yunyi couldn't help raising his head.

He looked at Song Gongwen who was opposite him.

My mind is full of doubts.

Father-in-law, how did you come up with this national policy of enhancing luck?

You know, my expectations of you are different from others.

I have worked so hard to promote you as a cabinet scholar because I want you to help me better ruin the country's destiny and gain the value of a foolish king.

Where's your sleekness?What about your trend?And what about your mediocre ability, which is well-known in the capital?Where have they all gone?

What does it mean to directly set up a share of the land?Is this going to go on smoothly?

What on earth are you thinking?I usually see you quietly.

This opening is to spread the money into the mu?

What is this for?

Are you trying to backstab me?

He knew that once the national policy of distributing the land to the mu can be implemented, not only will the imperial tax revenue increase sharply, but the economy will also achieve huge growth, and then the treasury's silver deposits will continue to increase.

More importantly, because of the complete abolition of the poll tax, the people's burden will be reduced, which will also lead to a population explosion.

The sum of the three, let alone ruin the national destiny.

Fast forward directly to the birth of the immortal!

At this moment, Wei Yunyi was a little tired, and the hands holding the memorial were trembling slightly.

No, I absolutely can't let this kind of thing happen, the benefits of sharing the benefits are too great.

The current self can't bear it at all!

Therefore, it is absolutely not supported!

Not only can't support it, but also oppose it, vigorously oppose it.

Let no one bring this up again!

At this point in his thoughts, he put down the memorial and was about to say something.

But it was at this time.

The Grand Tutor Zhang Zhengming, who had never spoken before, suddenly stood up, bowed slightly, and said: "Your Majesty, what Mr. Song said is that you can improve yourself, but it will have a lot of influence. suitable for implementation.”

Hearing this, Wei Yunyi's words were forcibly held back, and he looked at the other party with a strange look in his eyes.

Who is Zhang Zhengming?He is a real famous minister with strong ability, which is obvious to all.

Especially in the original book.

This person has almost never made a mistake in governing the country.

Great Wei can have today's strong and prosperous, the other party has a great credit.

It is the existence that he regards as the light in the sea of ​​suffering on the road of the faint king.

So it has been decided long ago that as long as this person opposes it, it is correct.

Logically speaking, such a person.

You can definitely see how great the benefits are.

I also know that this move can definitely greatly enhance the national power of Wei.

But now, the other party doesn't support it, and is the first to stand up against it...

What do you mean?

Is there something in it that I haven't seen through?

Yes, definitely so.

Wei Yunyi pondered in his heart, and immediately said: "Oh? Why did the Taifu say that?"

Although it is the opposite of this person, it must be true.

But he still wants to know the specific reasons for not supporting it.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, let's not talk about anything else, how long has the poll tax been implemented?"

"It's been more than 1000 years!" Zhang Zhengming continued: "And this has also formed the default rules of various dynasties. It can be said that it has been like this since ancient times, and almost everyone is used to it. How difficult will it be to abolish the poll tax? Even the humble minister can't imagine, "

"Besides, the reform of the tax system has too many related things. It can be said that it will affect the whole body. It is not a matter of overnight."

"Perhaps this move will shake the foundation of Great Wei, causing various difficult problems to arise."

"That's why Weichen thinks that although it is good to spread the land into the mu, it is not the time yet."

Chapter 46 Crouching Dragon on the Road to Hunjun

As the chief minister of the cabinet who has carried out many reform measures.

Zhang Zhengming is fully qualified to express this opinion.

Because he was at the beginning.

Just encountered such a predicament.

And this remark made Wei Yunyi's eyes shine.

Yes, Zhang Zhengming is absolutely right.

What I thought before was that after the implementation of the allocation of land into the mu, the benefits will be great and the luck will be greatly increased.

But I never thought about the difficulties and obstacles I would encounter during the implementation of this move.

Poll tax has been implemented in this world for thousands of years.

As the other party said, it is the default system for everyone.

This has always been the case.

Now if you want to abolish it completely.

The degree of difficulty can be imagined.

Even in the last life, because it catered to the development of history, and because the conditions in all aspects were approaching maturity, it was able to be implemented smoothly.

But even so, in the process, I still encountered many troubles, and almost died in the womb.

In particular, what Zhang Zhengming said, after the implementation of spreading the land into the mu, there will be some unresolved problems.

This made Wei Yunyi even more clear.

because.

As long as you have studied history in middle school, you should know it.

In ancient feudal dynasties, on the surface, the ruler was the emperor.

Because the emperor has supreme power, it seems that what he says is what he says.

But actually?

Not at all!

In the feudal era, the real rulers were the vast landowners and the gentry class.

They looked as if they wanted to obey the orders of the emperor and the court, but it was only on the surface.

Because after a decree is issued, the real executors are these people.If it fits their interests, then naturally it can be implemented smoothly, but what if it doesn't?

If this decree wants to be implemented, it will encounter thousands of difficulties, and even if it succeeds in the end, it will have little effect.

Of course, the emperor holds great power and can enforce the decree in a thunderous manner.

However, this will definitely arouse the resentment and hatred of the landlords and the gentry class.

They may endure the first time, the second time, the third time.

But once the real core interests are violated.

These people will rise up and rebel.

In the best case, it will cause all kinds of chaos in the whole country.

As for the worst-case scenario, don't think about it at all, that is, someone rises up and establishes a new dynasty!

This is not conjecture.

It has actually happened in history, and more than once.

At this point in his thoughts, Wei Yunyi felt more and more that what Zhang Zhengming said was correct. Obviously, this was what the other party was worried about.

It really deserves to be my beacon of suffering.

Get to the core of the problem.

What no one else thought of, this person thought of it.

Especially when he saw that the three grand scholars all frowned and looked unhappy when they saw the content of the memorial, he was even more sure of this.

So at this moment, because of Zhang Zhengming's wake-up call, Wei Yunyi changed his thinking, and he chose to support Song Gongwen!

Because the land is divided into acres, the poll tax is abolished, and the tax is distributed to the fields.

Isn't it tantamount to violating the interests of these people?

If the process is messed up again, it will definitely cause chaos in the court, resulting in a significant decline in luck, and then exchange a large amount of Faint Lord Points, maybe you can directly buy the elixir that will become immortal immediately!

As for whether this move will cause a fatal blow to the entire Wei Dynasty.

Wei Yunyi is not worried at all, because the current Great Wei is in the rising period of the empire.

As the system shows, with more than 80 fortunes, it is impossible to destroy these fortunes in one fell swoop and lead to the collapse of the dynasty.

The big deal is that I will intervene when the time comes, as long as I get the Hunjun value and stop it in time, it will be fine.
