Otherworldly Castle Era

　　 After Liu Ji reported the situation of the army, Zhang Juzheng came to report on Xia Guo's financial situation.

　　"Go to the Lord! Apocalypse's total fiscal revenue in six years was 560,000 taels and total fiscal expenditures were 5,300,000 taels. Compared with the previous year, total fiscal revenues increased by 30%, and expenditures also increased by 30%."

Yang Song nodded and did a mental calculation. It is about one or two Xia Yuan per capita in taxes. This figure is not much at all. On the contrary, in Yang Song’s view, this figure is still a bit low, but there is no way. The Xia country is still a farming society.

　　 The purchasing power of Xia Guo's banknotes is still very strong. One or two Xia coins can buy about 500 catties of rice, which is enough for an adult to eat in a year.

　　 In Tianqi City, a two-story building covering an area of ​​100 square meters has a market price of around 120 taels. In other counties and towns, this figure is even lower.

"The country's per capita annual income this year is 12, 23, and 7 liters, an increase of 10% year-on-year." Zhang Juzheng continued to report: "The country's fiscal growth rate is due to the results of the fiscal reforms implemented this year. Seventy percent of fiscal revenue was collected after the reform."

　　 "Since the fiscal reform has been effective, it must be maintained and continue to work harder." Yang Song encouraged, as long as it is growing, this is a good sign.

　　 "Yes, your lord, the minister must do his best." Zhang Juzheng stood up and saluted.

　　 Most of Xia’s finances come from taxation, and a small part comes from state-owned enterprises. Among them, taxation from the property of Yang Song and his monarch accounts for a large part of the fiscal revenue.

　　 These statistics are the result of the population growth of Xia Guo by hundreds of thousands. It is conceivable that in addition to the normal fiscal growth, how much tax revenue comes from the Yangsong industry.

　　 Before Zhang Juzheng sat down again, Yang Song continued: "A new naturalization city has been established outside Shanhaiguan, and the tax revenue will also be increased by a tariff to collect taxes on goods entering the country."

　　 "Yes, the minister leads the orders, the king is wise!" Zhang Juzheng heard Yang Song's words and very much agreed with the collection of tariffs. As long as the city of Guihua became prosperous, Xia Guo's finances would have a new source.

　　 The importance of tariffs Yang Song has been very clear from a long time ago. Before, he had let Changsun Sheng open a business route and he was going to test whether he could increase fiscal revenue, but who knows...

　　 Zhang Ju held his hand to Yang Song and sat down and said: "Due to the changes in the'Golden Egg Project', the production of foreign gold coins has been stopped, a total of 10 million foreign gold coins have been produced, and 250 tons of gold have been consumed."

　　The number of gold coins was approved by Yang Song, and banknotes of the same value were also reserved for foreign trade separately.

　　 Now these gold coins and banknotes are all useless. Only after the opening of commerce and trade and exchanges of valuable materials by forces outside the customs, these gold coins and banknotes have real value.

　　 To put it simply, the current gold coins are just a pile of metal in the warehouse. Once the business is opened and the gold coins are exchanged for food and minerals, these gold coins are real "money"!

　　More than that, Xia Guo also prepared equivalent Xia Guo banknotes. As long as they passed the credit test of the merchants in the early stage, the effect of these banknotes was far more valuable than the gold.

　　 "Very well, the commerce in Guihua City is about to begin. This is the focus of future work." Yang Song said.

　　 "Yes, Lord!" Zhang Juzheng then reported on various financial details, such as how much money was spent in the five newly built towns in the Linhai Basin, how much was spent in each place, and so on.

Next is the summary of the Office of Academic Affairs, reported by Yang Lilaihui: "The education aspect of Taiyuan College is mainly about the construction of schools in five towns in the Linhai Basin. According to each county, there must be a high school, one town and one beginner, and one village and one school. The goals of elementary school and enrollment have been built, and all of them have been completed now. Students can be recruited in the coming year."

　　 The education issue is very important to Yang Song. Because the original university did not have enough teachers and the enrolled students did not have enough knowledge, he was demoted to a higher school.

However, after receiving five thousand talents, most of the 1,500 teachers in it are still teachers from universities and higher education, but they have added a lot of assistance to the construction of Xia Guo’s education, so the university has also been re-established, and the location is Tianqi. Down the hill on the north side of the city.

The original school settings were one county, one elementary school, one town, one elementary school, and one village, one enrollment. However, Yang Song found that such a setting was still not conducive to the development of Xia Guo’s education, so after discussing with Zhu Xi, Liu Ji and others, he raised it up again. Up one level.

　　 In this way, it happens that Tianqi City has a university, county level has higher education, town level has beginners, village level has elementary schools and enrollment, and the entire education system has been initially established and perfected.

　　 Only professional schools of various levels are still under construction, and the military academies are also under planning. The construction is expected to be completed by the end of next year.

　　 Education expenditures are all paid by Yang Song's private finances, but the financial expenditures on this aspect almost killed Yang Song's life.

　　Especially upgrading the education system, not only invested all of this year's income, but also invested all the wealth accumulated in previous years.

　　 In the end, if it were not for the financial support provided by the Ministry of Finance, he, the monarch, might not be able to eat-although he also has a monthly salary of up to twelve Xia yuan!

　　 Although the cost is huge, the result is gratifying. Except for a small number of school constructions across the country that have not been completed, the rest of the schools will be able to recruit students after the opening of the new year!

　　 As for the tuition fees of students, the free system of enrollment was implemented at the beginning. Primary school only pays one-third of the tuition, and beginners only pay half. Only high school and university pay them all.

　　 This is a large amount of expenditure. If it were not decided that the tuition expenses should be borne entirely by the state finances, with Yang Song and his personal property, with the current scale of Xia Guo, it would not be enough to sell him a catty! ——This is also one of the reasons why fiscal expenditure has increased year by year.

"The Academy of Science and Technology is still improving the steam engine." Yang Li went on to report on the science and technology. Ever since Shen Kuo built the rough and unusable steam engine ~www.wuxiaspot.com~The Academy of Science and Technology has been improving. Now, there is no result.

　　 "Taiwan Hospital, this year's greatest achievement is the Joint Intelligence Agency, which solved the plague problem outside the customs." Yang Li said of this, he himself is also very proud of this, but this is a good deed to save the living and people.

　　 Because Yang Song ordered Li Shizhen of the Taiyuan Hospital to solve the plague outside the customs, once the publicity, his image in the hearts of ordinary people suddenly became taller.

　　 It is precisely because of this that, in the hearts of many people, he has changed a lot in the image of the monarch who is cruel to the outside and kind to the inside, and has become a tolerant king. Let the people who only respected him become respected of him.

　　 Even the people's sentiment has risen greatly. In the system, from [good] to [loyal], this is a very big improvement.

You must know that no matter what achievements he has made, whether it is the expansion of the territory or the people of Shide, the people’s heart has never changed, but at this time, the prevention and control of the plague outside the customs is nothing more than Liu. One link in the foundation plan has achieved unexpected gains in the country!

　　 So Yang Song had to sigh with emotion, how amazing Liu Ji Liu Bowen’s resourcefulness is. It is estimated that Liu Ji strongly suggested that he abolish the indigenous captives at this time. It is also because of other domestic factors! It's just a pity...
