Yang Xiu bowed again and immediately expressed his opinion.
Although Liangzhou has a large area, there is too little arable land and there are even fewer household registrations. When Liangzhou had the largest household registration, there were only 100,000 households, which was just an ordinary county in the mainland. Even if Qiang and Hu naturalized, the number of household registrations has increased.
, it is impossible to compare with the Central Plains county.
Hanyang is the largest county in Liangzhou, with a household registration of less than 30,000, which is the level of a large county in the mainland.
Therefore, it is unfair to Liangzhou to compare the total tax amount with other states.
Furthermore, Liangzhou has few arable land and many pastures, which is destined to produce limited grain and mainly livestock. However, the best pastures in Liangzhou were requisitioned by the imperial court and used as pastoral gardens to stock war horses, and horses, cattle and sheep produced in other pastures are also
Most of them are supplied to the mainland, especially horses, which bear the vast majority of the horses used in the mainland counties and counties. The prices of these horses are controlled by the court and are far lower than the market price. It is Liangzhou's support for the court, and the court
We cannot turn a blind eye, and in turn accuse Liangzhou of its poor development.
Just imagine what would it be like if the best arable land in the mainland was taken back to the court?
Will their data still look so good?
As soon as this statement was spoken, many people shivered and looked at each other.
What does Yang Xiu mean? Is it to further promote the situation of the emperor?
How many people have to go bankrupt if the best arable land is taken back to the court?
Yang Biao frowned and looked unhappy.
If it weren't for the court, he would have liked to give Yang Xiu a loud slap in the face.
You, you really dare to say anything. If you say this, do you know how many people will not sleep well? If there is a stir in the civil war, it will be a big trouble.
After Yang Xiu finished speaking, he finally proposed one thing: while comparing the total amount of taxes, the fact that Liangzhou’s household registration is insufficient should be considered, and it is recommended to compare the per capita tax contribution.
As soon as this said, Liu Xie twitched his cheeks and almost laughed out loud.
It is worthy of being Yang Xiu, who has grasped both the key points and the pain points of others.
If the mainland counties and states are not dragged into the water, no one will care whether Liangzhou has encountered injustice.
If you don’t mention the per capita contribution, no one cares about the fact that Liangzhou has too few household registrations.
Liangzhou has few household registrations and less arable land. Just talking about the total contribution, Liangzhou will never be better than the mainland. However, compared with per capita, Liangzhou can surpass the mainland. Even Nanyang cannot be compared with Hanyang.
There are more than 500,000 households in Nanyang, 17 or 18 times that of Hanyang, but the total tax amount in Nanyang is not as 17 or 18 times that of Hanyang.
This is still the case where horse prices are under control. If horse prices are relaxed, Hanyang's total tax amount will easily double.
In this era, industry is still in its early stages. In terms of per capita output value, animal husbandry is better than agriculture.
Even in the 21st century when industrial development was developed, herders who had ranches at home still had more income than most working families.
Compared with per capita, Liangzhou has obvious advantages, which is enough for no one to dare to underestimate it.
Liu Xie looked at Yang Biao.
Yang Biao pondered for a moment. "Although the prefect said, although it makes sense, the rise and fall of the country still depends on the total amount. Of course, your opinion is worthy. In the future, the court should consider the per capita tax when evaluating officials.
Only the total quantity theory.”
Yang Xiu no longer insisted and bowed to retreat.
Today is a year-end summary, not the time to formally launch an attack on the Situ Mansion. Since Yang Biao admitted that the Situ Mansion had insufficient evaluation standards for officials, his purpose was achieved. There is no need to fight for the fight, which would ruin everyone.
interest.
Yang Biao turned around and ordered the chief secretary Zhang Song to record the matter for later research, and then mentioned Bohai County again.
Chen Qun, a scam official in Bohai, took the list and accepted criticism.
Yang Biao focused on criticizing the incident in Bohai. The household registration in Bohai is increasing, but the tax is decreasing.
This is a rare situation, and it can even be said to be unique.
Perhaps because he had a way out of retreat with Xun or before, Chen Qun's mentality became much calmer. He patiently explained the reason why the Bohai household registration increased but the tax was reduced. Because the Bohai household registration was moved too many, the prefect was in order to attract foreigners to become naturalized.
, there are policies to provide money and grain resettlement for new household registrations. Those reduced taxes are used to resettle new household registrations.
Chen Qun explained, but Yang Biao didn't ask again.
After the Situ Mansion's report was completed, the Sikong Mansion continued to report.
For Sikong Mansion, the biggest thing this year is to deal with the escape of criminals who have been exiled overseas.
After introducing the general situation, Sikong Zhou Zhong once again attacked Bohai County.
Although Bohai has been granted permission from the emperor and does not promote land diversion with other counties and states, the judiciary is still controlled by the court. The criminals who exiled overseas to flee, and the incarcerated ones are the same as those who take them. Most of the counties in Bohai are gentlemen who are knowledgeable about books and rituals. Why
Do you knowingly commit it?
Chen Qun stood up again to apologize.
Although he was mentally prepared, he still felt embarrassed and became more determined to leave Bohai. If he did not leave Bohai, this humiliation would fall on him in the future.
The above plan is a beautiful thing, but in the Bohai Sea, this is a difficult task that everyone avoids.
They are all a group of scholars who want to be respected. They gather together to build the ideal kingdom. How come they have become a backward model that everyone despises, and they are dragging their feet every year?
After the Sangong reported, Liu Xie said a few words.
The general idea is nothing more than that this year's achievements are not small, but there are also great difficulties. I hope that the king and his ministers will work together to build a better future.
Among them, he focused on Situ and Sikong's mansions.
Situ Mansion has worked well, and tax increases have increased significantly in recent years, but the management method is still relatively outdated, and it is more innovative than innovation, which is a bit impossible to keep up with the development of the situation. The situation mentioned by Yang Xiu, the prefect of Hanyang just now, is an example. Situ Mansion should have been
I have prepared for a long time and shouldn't have waited until Yang Xiu proposed it.
With the development of industry and commerce, many problems will arise in the future. Some problems are encountered before but have not been dealt with well, such as how to solve the problem of excessive absorption of agricultural population by commerce, increase wealth of merchants, and then purchase land, resulting in land annexation.
There are also problems that have not been encountered before, such as the sharp rise in industrial and commercial tax, how to adjust the tax rate, increase management capabilities, and how to coordinate the imbalance between different industries and different regions.
All these problems require Situ’s Mansion to come up with a plan and make preparations.
Liu Xie has higher requirements for Sikong Mansion.
From the escape case, it can be seen that there are still many officials in the Sikong Mansion who are accustomed to using the old stories of severing prisons in the Spring and Autumn Period, explaining the law at will, and even misinterpreting the law and pursuing the law. Such people must be severely punished.
Things must be eliminated, and it is not advisable to cut off prisons in the Spring and Autumn Period. The benevolence advocated by Confucianism should be reflected in the legislative stage, rather than the law enforcement stage.
When enforcing the law, you can talk about human nature, but you cannot ignore the law. If everyone can interpret the law according to their own needs, what is the meaning of this law?
In the next step, Sikongfu will solve this problem ideologically, sort out the current laws, eliminate unreasonable components, and re-engineer a law that is suitable for the new trend, which can truly benefit the people and be conducive to development.
Sikong Zhou Zhong blushed and leaned on the ground to apologize.
He is a typical example of the conservative forces that the emperor severely criticized.
