"Come, come, eat and eat." Qin King Zhu Cunshu didn't treat himself as an outsider at all, and even treated this place as his own home. No wonder people say that the whole world is the king's soil, and the land's shore is the king's court. They are King Qin, and the entire Qinchuan belongs to them. What are you arguing about with them
This makes Wei Ming feel very uncomfortable. Didn’t you just say not to prepare too many dishes? Okay, this is what you said, let you see who is in charge of this three-acre land. Wei Ming motioned to Xiao Dongzi to give the back chef a plate of pickles and two wotou. Come on, let's eat one by one. But obviously Zhu Cunshu didn't take it seriously, and he still had no choice but to let Wei Ming go. If you can't bear it, don't bear it anymore. Wei Ming is ready to showdown with Zhu Cunshu.
"King Qin, my good King Qin, what the hell are you doing here! Don't torture me anymore! I beg you!" Wei Ming just cried again and just cried. This was a surprise to Zhu Cunshu. Putting down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, he pondered for a moment, and said, "Actually, there is nothing wrong, just coughing cough, just to thank you. After all, you did a good job at Lianghuai this time. And because of the lighter. Now, Your Majesty also praised me. It’s not a joy to come over and thank you. That’s it, that’s it, haha, don’t think too much.”
Wei Ming is not a fool. The two generations are human, and I have seen a lot of people. Zhu Cunshu's performance ability is really a bit of a failure. Wei Ming can tell at a glance that this is not sincere. It seems that there are other things.
"King Qin." Wei Ming took the opportunity to take a sip of wine and sorted out his thoughts. It’s really impossible for this absolute high-ranking cadre’s child to deal with if he is not careful. He said for a while, “Since we’ve been called brothers, then you don’t have to lie to the brothers. If you have anything to do, just say it directly. Come out. If I can help, there is no reason to define it. Don't play dumb puzzles with me anymore. In this way, neither of us will feel comfortable. What do you think?"
"Well, since you have said so, then I won't be polite to you." Zhu Cunshu exhaled a long breath, took a sip of wine, and then said: "This is how things are. Everyone It’s not a fool. Everyone knows where the country is now. The rebels have risen one after another. These years seem to have stopped a bit, but now there are natural disasters and man-made disasters, and there are constant clamors outside the gate, and natural disasters inside the gate. Years are not as good as one year now, and the people’s lives are miserable. Everyone knows this from the court to the yellow-haired children. But there is no way. Without payment, the court has no food and payment. Without food and payment, who wants to go. Go to war? No one goes to war, how can we fight against Tartar? Adding wealth will make life more difficult for the people of the entire empire. This will gradually form a vicious circle, and the entire empire will be in such a vicious circle. The emperor gave a lighter for the second time. The boundary of Shaanxi is not good, the land is barren, and the disaster is serious. Strong enemies around are looking around, and I must guard this piece of land. But what should I guard? I have no soldiers in my hand. Right, there is no food yet. The right is not to let go, don't give me anything, let me take my mouth to guard!" As he said, Zhu Cunshu kept pouring wine into his mouth. Cup after cup. Through these words, Wei Ming has made a certain change in Zhu Cunshu. It seems that everyone who seems simple in history is not that simple. At the beginning, Zhu Yuanzhang unified the whole country, and in order to better control the country, he wanted to divide the whole country. When Zhu Yun simmered, he tried to cut the feudal clan. Chu Fan cut out Zhu Di. Zhu Di drove his nephew down, and finally completed the cutting of the feudal clan. After that, the king died in name only. Without power and power, the blood relationship with the imperial court is getting farther and farther away. Who cares? It's still one family, but it has been divided into countless families. To the north of Shaanxi is Mongolia. Zhu Yuanzhang drove the Mongols out, but the war between the Ming Dynasty and the Mongols never ceased. Throughout the end of Ming Dynasty. Datong, Taiyuan, Xuanfu, these are all important towns for troops. This is the case in Shanxi, and Shaanxi is no exception. Shanxi has to defend not only Mongolia, but also other leading states. Therefore, there are many soldiers in Shaanxi. These soldiers were also the main force in the uprising that broke out later. In many cases, the officers and soldiers who had fought against the rebels were joined to the ranks of the rebels. Not for anything else, just for a bite to eat. Often for a bowl of rice, they can revolt. The reason is simple, the reality is cruel. No wonder Zhu Cunshu was so distressed.
"His Royal Highness, don't have to worry so much, things will always get better." Wei Ming poured a glass of wine for Zhu Cunshu and said. Since he came here, he has been preparing for the following severe droughts. As for whether it can withstand the invasion of natural disasters, hehe, then God knows.
"So, do you have a way?" Zhu Cunshu's eyes lit up when Wei Ming said this. The look in Wei Ming's eyes was like looking at a god. This can't be all to blame Zhu Cunshu, who made Wei Ming keen on pretending to be a stick when he first came to this world? Moreover, at this time, this Taoism is also popular. The emperor thought all day about refining alchemy and becoming immortal, and immortality, let alone the people below.
"The way is a little bit, but as for how to implement it, it's hard to say. Whether it can be successful, it's even harder to say." Wei Ming said hesitantly. After all, no one knows whether this method will work or not, and how much resistance there will be in its implementation.
"Let's just listen to it." Zhu Cunshu said anxiously.
"Then I'm going to talk about it. First of all, what we want to grow. Now wheat and rice are obviously not able to meet our needs. If we continue to plant it, it will only get worse and worse. So, we have to look for some high-yield products now. Crop, get rid of this embarrassing situation. I am now doing experiments in this area. As for whether it can be successful, it is hard to say." Wei Ming said with a melancholy expression. In theory, it is possible, but in reality, no one can say it is bad.
"Then what's next?" Zhu Cunshu thought for a while and asked again. Wei Ming said that, it shows that there is no spectrum in his heart. Although Zhu Cunshu is the son of a senior cadre, he still knows something about growing food. The cycle is relatively long, and now I can’t be anxious. Moreover, it is easy to do with lessons learned. Otherwise, what if this thing doesn't grow out? If it is rashly implemented, I am afraid it will create a large area of wasteland. Not only will it not be good for the current situation, but it will make the situation even worse.
"The other thing is, the tax system has been reformed." Wei Ming said this after all. He knew that if this matter was implemented, he did not know how many people would be scolded to death. However, if he doesn't say it, he can't make it through his conscience. To implement this policy, the emperor nodded. Moreover, even if the emperor nodded his head, it was not finished. A large number of people needed to take the lead to form the general trend, so that it could be implemented. But, who wants to lose their own interests? I'm afraid no one wants to do this.
"How to change the law?" Zhu Cunshu wondered in his heart, as if there was a bit of a way out, he continued to ask.
"The life of the farmers is very hard, you know, I know, and the emperor knows. The tax budget of the entire country should be tens of millions taels. But the annual income is dead, only a few million taels. Why? Because there are too many. Too many people don't have to pay taxes." Wei Ming stopped here. Because Zhu Cunshu is the leader among those who don't have to pay taxes. With the existence of these nobles, taxes have been reduced. The country has no money and can only increase taxes. The people had no choice but to sell their sons and daughters to sell land. After the land annexation, there is more land without taxation, and less taxation, so you can only increase taxes. The whole vicious circle. In the end, it dragged down the empire bit by bit.
"How can this be done? How did you drop your idea on me? If the soldiers don't give me, the rights don't give me, and finally I have to take back my land, then I won't survive!" Zhu Cunshu became anxious all at once. It's like a cat with its tail trampled on.
(Brothers, my dear brothers, we are getting farther and farther from the front, and the ones behind are in hot pursuit. Now we are twenty-three. It is only a few hours away from the start again. There is nothing to expect from one step forward. , But, brothers, let's at least keep our current position! Come on!)
