Chapter 165: If you are ugly, don't think about being beautiful

Yang Shaofeng didn't care much about the things Zhu Laosi said about abolishing people's taxes and other things.

First of all, the people in the Ming Dynasty were different from the ordinary people generally believed in later generations. The people of the Ming Dynasty mean that they had a Ming household registration, and they must be civilians, craftsmanship, business, military, and cheap people are not listed here.

Secondly, Zhu Laosi was not the first to cancel the tax on people's taxes, and the mites of the sacred ancestor who were blown up by the coated slaves was not the first to create the tax on people's taxes. The first to play the role of exempting taxes on people's taxes was the Emperor Xiaowen of the Han Dynasty.

"Han Shu·Food Records": "The emperor (Emperor Wen) followed his (Chao Cuo)'s words and issued an edict: Give the people half of the rent and tax for twelve years, and next year, the rent and tax for the people's land will be eliminated. At the age of thirteen, in the second year of Xiaojing, he ordered that half of the people rent the land, and thirty years later, and taxed it to one."

Emperor Xiaowen of Han, Liu Heng, initially planned to reduce the rent and taxes of the people by half, but in the second year, the total land tax was not much money, so he simply waived it all. It was not until the third year after Emperor Xiaojing ascended the throne that he started collecting again, and it was still halved.

However, it’s a pity that no matter how diligent the emperor of the Han family is, he has a good use for loving the people. Is there a coat slave who praises you?

In the "Never Added Fu Examination", those coat slaves would never mention the four words "breeding people" before "never add Fu", and would not mention the so-called "breeding people" meaning - the so-called "breeding people, never add Fu". The true face of this stupid edict is to use the number of 50 years of 50 years as the quota, and each household will no longer pay taxes. If the quota is insufficient, it must be supplemented from the same clan.

It is indeed never to add tribute, but it must not be missed!

After the breast was lost, the time traveler was forced to come to the door and could not resist it. In order to maintain the prosperous situation of the Qing Dynasty, I simply added a tax on the tax and transferred it to the land tax.

But there is no way. The men of the coat of arms are just to blow the Emperor of the Holy Ancestor - how can the emperor who can propose never to add a tribute, not the wise monarch?

If it cannot be proved that all the twelve emperors of Miqing are wise rulers, what should you do if you let them be coated slaves?

What breeds people? I can’t see it! It’s a mediocre person to earn wise men! Anyway, the servants have recognized four words: Never add more fu! It must be blown up!

But Yang Shaofeng found it particularly funny.

Is it true? The four words of breeding population in the previous article cannot be seen? The whole nation planted the longevity cream and then exported it to the public? Since the Opium War, 1,175 unequal treaties have been signed. The land of more than 2 million square kilometers cannot be seen? The ceded more than 2 million square kilometers of land cannot be seen? The cumulative compensation of 1.3 billion taels of silver cannot be seen? Just seeing "Never Add Fu" and the stalled population have been invested in acres?

Blind!?

Zhu Laosi looked at Yang Shaofeng, whose face turned pale for a while, and couldn't help but twitch his palm to Yang Shaofeng's head: "Bastard! What are you thinking?"

After being pulled back to his senses, Yang Shaofeng stood up and took a deep breath, bowed to Zhu Laosi and said, "Grandfather, I'm sorry for my grandson, it's because my grandson is rude."

Zhu Laosi pointed to the stool, signaled Yang Shaofeng to sit down and answer, and then snorted coldly, "What are you thinking?"

Yang Shaofeng said: "My grandson is thinking about what Grandfather said just now about exempting people's taxes."

Zhu Laosi sarcastically said, "You are just a pig's brain, what can you think of?"

Yang Shaofeng bowed and said, "Go back to Grandfather, what my grandson thinks is that Emperor Xiaowen of Han exempted the people from paying taxes for 12 years. Later, the thieves passed by his tomb and worshiped him. I am grateful to Emperor Xiaowen for his kindness. If Grandfather completely exempted the people from paying taxes, what should the descendants of the world?"

Zhu Laosi sneered, "You can be stupid, you can fool Zhanji, but you can't fool me as a fool, too. I see that your face turned blue and white just now, are you thinking about the people of future generations grateful for my kindness?"

Yang Shaofeng chuckled a few times and replied, "My grandson was thinking about how to persuade his grandfather to build an industry and give up the idea of ​​real estate. After all, industry will bring prosperity to the country, and real estate will ruin the country."

Seeing that Yang Shaofeng once again mentioned that real estate development and real estate was ruined, Zhu Laosi immediately changed into a kind face and asked with a smile: "What's going on in the real estate development? What's going on in the real estate development? "

Seeing that Zhu Laosi stopped pursuing the changes in his face just now, Yang Shaofeng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said carefully: "The so-called business is prosperous. In fact, my grandfather can discover the mystery of it just by thinking about it.

For example, when building a new city, a large amount of cement, blue bricks, lime, and steel are needed. These things cannot be transformed out of thin air, and a large number of workers are required to produce them.

In this process, workers can get their salaries, and after the materials are produced, they are sold to the construction site. The workshop needs to be paid taxes. The workers who get their salaries cannot farm, so they will have the need to buy food and clothing. The merchants who see this business opportunity will transfer grain and clothing to Shuntianfu for sale, and these merchants also need to pay taxes.

You see, some useless soil and stones were processed and turned into materials and then turned into unprecedented giant cities. In this process, the court could receive more commercial taxes, which is one of the benefits.

The second advantage lies in the production process.

For example, more cement and blue bricks are needed on the construction site, and better steel materials are needed, which forces craftsmen and merchants to study new production methods.

Take steel as an example. Do you know the steel forged by a steel plant? Any ingot has the quality of a hundred-sized steel, but the cost is much lower than before. This is the second benefit.

As for the third benefit, it is what my grandson likes the most. Think about the hydraulic machine tool. Although it is a bit simple and crude, is the quality of using this thing to drill the barrel of a musket? How long does it take to cultivate a master in the past? How long does it take to drill a barrel of a gun?

Now? As long as there are enough machine tools, it is easy to drill hundreds of barrels a day, and this is the biggest benefit.

As for real estate, although it seems to make money quickly, what else do you think can do this besides Beijing? There are only three or five places where real estate can be built in the Ming Dynasty. What will happen after it is completed?

You just need to think about the steel made in the steel factory outside the city and the machine tool that drills the musket barrel. Which of these is not more important than real estate?"

Zhu Laosi smacked his lips and said, "That's true. If I really say that, I would still prefer industrialization."

After saying that, Zhu Laosi couldn't help but say with some regret: "What a pity. I just thought, if so many counties in the Ming Dynasty were built everywhere, how much money would I earn? The people's taxes? I'll exempt him from hundreds of years!"

Yang Shaofeng really wants to tell Zhu Laosi that if you are ugly, don’t think too beautiful!

How many counties were there in the Ming Dynasty?

Excluding border cities and the four small satellite cities, and excluding Jiaozhi, there are still 1,427 counties in the Ming Dynasty!

Real estate development in 1,427 counties? Zhu Laosi dared to think about it!

Zhu Laosi didn't think about how much manpower and material resources had been used to build the Shuntian Prefecture Capital alone? More than a thousand counties, even if they were countless times smaller than Shuntian Prefecture New City, it was a huge project that was desperate and could not see the end of that day!

What’s even more frustrating is that building roads has benefits, and building cities has benefits, but these benefits require the treasury to spend real money in it first, and the return period will even last for decades or hundreds of years!

If you really follow Zhu Laosi’s idea, Yang Shaofeng feels that the possibility of making money is not very high, but the possibility of being eaten alive by Xia Yuanji is infinite~

After laughing awkwardly, Yang Shaofeng pointed to the auction house downstairs and changed the topic: "Look, there are only the last dozen yards left now, and the price is all for more than 100,000 yuan!"

Zhu Laosi nodded and suddenly asked again: "No, aren't you always shouting to marry a wife? I remember that the Lin family was going to buy an industry in Shuntian Mansion, but I haven't heard the Lin family bidding so far. What's going on?"

Yang Shaofeng chuckled and said, "There is another community that was not taken out for auction. It was left alone by his grandson. His adoptive father, second uncle, third uncle, and more than a dozen brothers, plus his grandson and the Lin family each have a yard.

As for the yard on Yingchun Road that was photographed by the adoptive father and the others just now, it is actually just like that, and it is not really necessary to let the adoptive father and the others live there."

Zhu Laosi said curiously and asked, "Is that yard good?"

Yang Shaofeng said: "The yard is indeed very good, but the really good yard is in another place, with mountains, water and landscapes, which is a hundred times stronger than these artificial landscapes."

After chuckling, Yang Shaofeng pointed to the auction house downstairs and said, "My grandson is so curious. Why did Hu Guang dare to buy a yard with 70,000 yuan? If he found out that the yard he bought for 70,000 yuan had not been renovated yet, what would it look like?"

Zhu Laosi laughed and scolded: "It's so noisy outside, so please look at the pig. Have you ever heard of this rumor? Hu Dashen couldn't even bear a pig, how could he bear this opportunity? He didn't see the benefits of buying a house now!

Also, you can cheat people just by being a dog. At this property auction, all the civil and military officials in the court, as well as noble families, were cheated by you!"

Yang Shaofeng shouted disapprovingly: "The grandson has a grandfather who is the backstage, and the background is very solid. Is it necessary to be afraid of them?"

He slapped Yang Shaofeng in the head casually, and Zhu Laosi smiled and said, "Damn it, do you know how to flatter me at this time?"
