Chapter 779 Potato Banquet(2/2)

Zhao Xu couldn't bear it and added a sentence later: "Lin Du Zhi, go and get a hundred coins of Jiaozi and give it to this Li Wengweng."

However, this is not a matter of course.

I can save today, but I can't save tomorrow. Therefore, Zhao Xu frowned and asked, "Wang Qing, are there many people like this?"

"Not many, but Your Majesty should not worry about problems. You are afraid of not knowing where the problem is, or knowing where the problem is, but you have no courage to solve it. So I deliberately invited Li Wengweng to come here, just to say something. If you want to use it for the people, the country must have a good and healthy tax and fiscal system, instead of just focusing on this income, but not seeing the greed of the various clerks, putting most of the profits of the pit mines in their own pockets, or levied taxes on the poor, and levying a little tax on the rich, it will be like the sky collapsed. If the country does not correct this in time, I believe that it will take not long for the country to go from bottom to top. The poorer the poorer the richer the richer the richer. In the end, as Du Zimei wrote, the rich family smells of wine and meat, and the road is frozen to death. To a certain extent, it is not frozen to death, but a large group of Huang Chao who even eats human flesh!"

"Only by fair and reasonable taxation, the national financial situation can be good, and money can be used to support the poor. Various elderly care charity institutes can be set up to solve the problems of these children and widows, and the taxes and taxes can be reduced and the harm caused by the charcoal industry to some people."

"So how to repay the people, let me give another example. For example, the number of servants in the country has almost reached nearly 500,000. Even so, many prefectures and counties are not afraid to hire too many servants because of poverty, and have to force the people to deal with the gap. With such a huge number of servants, the country only pays more than 6 million old trump cards a year, or another example, the number of servants is equivalent to twenty times the number of officials, but the total expenditure is only one-fifth of officials, and the difference is 80 to one hundred times. Is this normal?"

Although many of these servants are short-term, they only have more than ten per capita traffic, so few are there!

Cai Que asked: "How much is the salary of the servants on the other side?"

"It is divided into two parts. Part of it is a difference. Each Ding Zhuang is not less than twenty days a year, but it is not allowed to spend one month. And these workers are only responsible for the villages and towns. For example, if there are many indigenous people around, they must build village walls and send people to take turns to serve. The remaining work cannot use this amount of labor, so they have to hire servants. Generally, the salary of clerks is between fifty and one hundred stakes. The long difference is between thirty and fifty stakes, and the short difference is between fifty and fifty stakes, and the short difference is between fifty and fifty stakes a day. However, the price on the other side is relatively cheaper than that of the Song Dynasty."

Even if it is cheap, it is much higher than the salary of the servants in the Song Dynasty.

But there is a response difference there, which means that the number of recruitment differences is reduced invisibly. However, this response difference is only responsible to the village and town, and is led by the village chief and town mayor. In order to be re-elected, the village chief and town mayor have to please the people, so they are very cautious about these response differences.

Therefore, although it is good, it cannot be realized in the Song Dynasty.

Wang Ju said again: "And the biggest gap between the two sides is that the salary gap between officials and clerks is not large."

As Wang Ju said, the Song Dynasty had to pay nearly 30 million yuan in salary for officials every year, but not every official was very high. Ordinary magistrates and lords had a salary of only 300 to 500 yuan in annual salary and various benefits. As an official, he had to support one or two slaves and other servants, and with social engagements, the income was tight. However, as senior officials, the salary of Wen Yanbo and Fu Bi was extremely high. One Wen Yanbo could support two thousand servants.

"Of course, I don't mean reducing the salaries of officials, but rather that after the court's reasonable taxation, the treatment of servants can be slightly increased so that they can have the motivation to work for the country. Otherwise, they will be hiring, because they cannot support the family and the young, so they have to use their powers to violate the law and discipline. Don't think that they are just clerks and servants. In fact, ordinary people deal with the government, either with officials, but with these people."

"If a country wants to get better and better, there are three types of people who must pay attention to it. The first is the professors and gentlemen. They not only teach students knowledge, but half of their outlook on life will be affected by them when they were young. If each teacher is a moral person, most of these students will not be too bad when they grow up. If each teacher only cares about receiving gifts and money, these students will attach great importance to money when they grow up, and even do not hesitate to be corrupt and abuse the law. The second is the various doctors and doctors. The gentlemen are half parents, and doctors must also have the heart of parents. If the doctors ignore the life and death of the patients and only care about making money, the people will turn this disappointment into disappointment with the country. The third is the yamen runners and clerks in various prefectures and counties. Their practices directly affect the people's attitude towards the court."

"Wang Qing is right, but what does Wang Qing want?" Zhao Xu asked.
