"I don't have an opinion. Ni

Yuanlu mainly heard that once the lowly status is abolished, the tax can be increased, and other aspects feel that it is okay, mainly because there is no refutation, His Royal Highness said this, it is all good, there is no harm, but those gentry are strong, I am afraid it is not good to exploit these people justifiably, and can only spend more to buy desperate people as domestic slaves.

"The minister has no opinion. "

Sun Chengzong doesn't have any feelings about this, and it doesn't matter if he is a lowly person or not.

"But this system has been this system for thousands of years, and if it is suddenly abolished, will it make the prestige of the imperial court less than the subordinates, and those scholars and literati may also be criticized.

Fan Jingwen is worried about the problem of personnel turmoil.

"The prestige of the imperial court is not forced, but comes from the hearts of the people, and besides, no matter how many people in the world there are, more than the common people?"

Zhu Cihong stood up, supported the table with one hand, and said with a smile: "Besides, those who have always rebelled are farmers, and I have never heard that businessmen do not want to live."

"Change is certain, not only now but also in the future, and more often. "

In addition to liberating the labor force and employment options, the abolition of untouchables is mainly paving the way for future tax reform.

Fan Jingwen saw His Royal Highness the Prince's posture, he knew that this matter was finalized, he didn't have to say anything, he didn't say anything more, in fact, this policy is really not a big deal if you think about it carefully, it is just a great grace to those lowly people, and it is indeed good for the imperial court, not only can it be counted as a tax, but also has a wave of prestige.

It's just that the untouchable status on the surface can be abolished, but the untouchable status in the heart can't be abolished, and those people are just not untouchable in terms of identity.

It's just that the people in the world don't seem to be so high, at least on the surface.

"And secondly.

Zhu Cihong walked down the steps, came to a half-person-high stove, picked up the cherries sent by the Agricultural Affairs Department on the table next to him, and said: "How to prevent the local government from intercepting this, the people below raise the price and take the opportunity to get oil and water, there is a way."

"In fact, the problem that Fan Ge Lao said is the common problem of my Ming local government, making silver coins, just so that there will be no fire consumption in the future, so that the people can increase the burden, so that the local officials will not have this vicious oil and water to fish.

"By the way, all the silver collected by the Ministry of Industry is made into silver coins by the Ministry of Industry, and then these silver coins are used to send them down to increase the popularity of silver coins.

He looked at Ni Yuanlu and asked, then put the washed cherries into the basin next to him again, washed them, and then put them in his mouth.

"Back to His Royal Highness, the silver coins are minted by the Ministry of Industry, and the local yamen does not have the right to mint money, so it is natural to transport the silver directly to the capital, and then mint it into silver coins, and then use it, which is indeed a very effective solution to the problem of annual fire consumption.

Ni Yuanlu said, but there was still something to say in his heart, that is, this silver coin greatly damaged the interests of the magistrates, but the court thought that the people did not have the burden of fire consumption It was one party, in fact, the local governments were still collecting fire consumption silver from the people, and after the will of the imperial court went down, most of the magistrates deliberately concealed it.

"Your Highness, there is one thing that the minister needs to say. "

After thinking about it, Ni Yuanlu still needs to inform His Royal Highness the Prince, he is not a magistrate, but there is nothing to be afraid of, at most, in the future, in terms of taxes, the magistrate will just make some ghosts, and pay less taxes.

Zhu Cihong smiled when he heard this, and waved his hand without looking back.

"When the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs went to the area south of the Yangtze River to inspect the use of silver coins, they found that there were still some local officials who were collecting fire consumption from the people, deliberately concealing the intention of transporting silver to the capital to mint coins, and would not collect fire consumption.

Ni Yuanlu looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince cautiously, he was really afraid that His Royal Highness wouldn't be able to stand this anger and get angry on the spot.

Zhu Cihong didn't feel surprised when he heard this, this kind of thing had long been expected by him, in fact, if the will continues, it is also beneficial for the magistrate not to obey it, because when he wants to use the knife, he has a lot of handles, which is also in his plan to lay out Jiangnan.

"This palace knows, but today this is not the point, the focus is on these things, everyone has found that the power of the magistrate is too much.

"This is also the purpose of the establishment of the Daming Money Village and the Grain Reserve Department in this palace, in order to increase the control of the local government, the money village controls the finances, and the grain reserve department controls the grain, the purpose of these two institutions is not to earn interest, but mainly to control the money and grain of the local government, and to drain the power of the local officials over the money and grain. "

What savings interest and the like, just incidentally, of course, the unified exchange of money, but also for the people not to be oppressed is also a major point, in the future, the magistrate will not have the right to transfer money and grain, all by the household unified transfer, if there is anything to spend, to write an official letter, to the local money or reserve department for approval, after reviewing the need for money and grain, and then approve the issuance of money and grain, if there is any problem in the future, the audit is not in place to approve the money and grain, the household department is responsible.

Zhu Cihong picked up the plate full of cherries, walked in front of the three people in the aisle, put the plate down, and said: "The same is true for the express yamen, which is in charge of the household department, and the money earned will be included in the Daming Money Village, and it is no longer within the purview of the magistrate."

He established the Daming Money Bank and issued silver coins, not to engage in a banking model to earn interest, nor to control the people's money, but to control the local government and reduce the burden on the people.

If you want to resurrect Daming, it's not just as simple as exterminating the thieves and expelling the Jiannu, but the internal rot is more serious, so that you can screen out a group of damned people, and the will is issued, of course it's good for you to obey the order, it's better if you don't obey the order, so that you will die at any time!

"All the treasury and grain of the government are all in charge of the Daming Money Village, the Grain Reserve Department, which is in charge of the Ministry of Households, and the Department of Taxation must be established in every state and county government, which is in charge of the Ministry of Households, and the collection of taxes, the measurement of fields, and the accounting of the population are all in charge of the Department of Taxation, and the government is assisted.

"In this way, the local government will not have the opportunity to withhold money, grain, and taxes, and there will be no opportunity to directly embezzle the court's money, grain, and taxes." "

Your Excellency's decree starts from the capital and then extends to Jiangnan.

"Also, the abolition of the forced labor system, firstly, can completely cut off the local government's oppression of the people, and use the forced labor to recruit the common people to work without compensation and earn money free of labor, and secondly, for the sake of the people who have been annexed by the gentry and nobles, and if the land is annexed by others, they will have to do it without compensation

After Zhu Cihong finished speaking, he looked at the stunned three people, and immediately smiled helplessly, they really need to digest it, and he knows that after this will is issued, it will be the time for demons in various places, and all kinds of inner libraries have no money and no food, and they will be used for disaster relief.

But at this time, it is time to reflect the importance of Jinyiwei, the capital and Beizhili have nothing to say, and now it is estimated that no one dares to resist his purpose, mainly to lay out Jiangnan and grasp the handle.

If you don't resist the decree, how can I catch you, how can I cut off your heads!

The three of them digested it for a long time, and they all felt that His Royal Highness the Prince's thoughts and thinking were really too novel, but they had to admit that these words were indeed very reasonable, and they didn't feel good to refute anything, and they couldn't find a point to refute them.

"Your Highness is really ...... It's really a talent from heaven and earth!" The

three of them really don't know what to say, in order to express the talent of His Royal Highness the Prince, the civil and military all-rounders are all light, and the civil and military prodigies are right.

These policies of the crown prince can not only reduce the burden on the national treasury and increase revenue, but also solve the livelihood problem of a large number of displaced people and disaster victims, and can also brush up the people's support, and can also curb the problem of corruption and interception of local officials, and most importantly, strengthen the central government's control over the local government.

"But there is still one point, the household department will add a lot of officials, such as the officials in charge of Daming Qianzhuang, the reserve department, the tax department, and the express yamen, which can not recruit people in the people, or use those soap officials in the local county government.

"And His Royal Highness's policy to go down, dare to go to the household department to serve, I am afraid that there are not many officials who manage these yamen, which is too deeply involved, no one dares, and there is the situation of my Ming officialdom, all of them are in groups, officials protect each other, deceive and conceal together, and deliberately make the new policy unable to continue, so that His Highness will retreat in the face of difficulties, which is also very possible.

Fan Jingwen was still more concerned about the transfer of officials, thought about it and said: "Moreover, after these policies are implemented, except for the post station express, I am afraid that it will be difficult to implement the others, and His Royal Highness must have the ability to withstand all kinds of pressure." Although

he admires His Highness very much, he still can't blindly applaud, cold water and preventive shots still have to be given, the three of them are His Royal Highness's people, so naturally they will not object, but the local officials are different, and the interests in this are too great.
