“Since land income is relatively fixed, where does the increase come from?”
Hanzawa Naoyi said solemnly.
“In a hundred years of troubled times, people’s livelihoods everywhere have declined.
Although land income is relatively fixed, a large amount of manpower and material resources are invested in wars, fields are abandoned, and people are forced to work. In fact, land output is constantly decreasing.
Taking the Guandong Plain as an example, the output of various regions now has actually shrunk by at least 35% compared to a hundred years ago. On the contrary, the lords imposed excessive taxes, and the tax burden was much higher than a hundred years ago.
The saint can ask his military families to reduce military investment and cherish the people's strength, and the economy of various places will recover quickly.
As long as the economies of various regions develop, more new income will be brought, and the taxes on these new increases must be calculated using Spo food stamps.
Because this is the peace granted by the saint, the Spo family has the right to share in the benefits of development."
Yiyin nodded, somewhat understanding.
"Development is the last word, and this is a good way to resolve conflicts during development."
Hanzawa Naoyoshi said respectfully.
"Sages are wise and development is the last word.
As long as the local military families benefit from development, they will not mind if the new taxes are calculated through food stamps.
As long as this hole is opened, we can continue to use policy inclinations to make local governments more dependent on food stamp transactions and squeeze copper coin grain out of the trading market.
I sincerely request the saint's permission to implement the two-tax system. Local land finance can use the Guangao system and the Shigao system can continue to be collected, and the new tax burden must be calculated based on the food stamp system."
Yiyin nodded and murmured.
"It's a two-tax system that boils frogs in warm water."
Banzawa Naoyi felt happy when he saw the saint's heart moved.
Once the new food stamp system is rolled out, local governments will no longer be able to levy temporary taxes arbitrarily, because all new taxes must be linked to food stamps.
The Sibo family practiced benevolent government and naturally would not allow the following to impose excessive taxes, which affected economic development and the new tax base of the food stamp system.
In the past, I wanted to control it but I couldn't control it. Now with the trump card of the food stamp system, the local tax amount has a reference, and I can intervene in the name of caring for the people.
The enforcement agency responsible for intervening must be the people who supervise the integrity of the Wu family.
Hanzawa Naoyi's intervention to help Dazang Chang'an is also helping the Integrity Party to gain more power.
There must be a window for the supervision function to be fulfilled, otherwise there will be no way to control it, and everyone will naturally treat you as a 250-year-old.
The corruption involving the Shibachu Foundation needs to be investigated, and Takada Haruno has also negotiated the protection of the new Shinto religion, coupled with the supervision and implementation of local benevolent governance.
The scope of power of the Integrity People is unknowingly expanding, and this is all the result of Hanze Naoyi's silent hard work.
Yuigahama Yui may not be able to figure it out yet, but she is already a high-ranking official in the political circles.
And the peace and order in the world that Hanzawa Naoyoshi has always pursued has the power base to guide it personally.
After a hundred years of chaos, all the people in the world need a chance to take a breath. If things continue like this, maybe there will be a prosperous era for the Wu family for several generations worth looking forward to.

Yiyin and the followers were talking when a knock on the door came from outside. He frowned slightly and shouted.
"Come in."
Opening the door, Tachibana Kanade who was waiting outside bowed and saluted. This silver-haired and silver-eyed Nanman was dressed in a decent Ji warrior uniform, and his behavior was increasingly in line with the etiquette of the island country's samurai family.
The temperament of the East and the West blend together, making Yiyin unable to avoid looking at her more than once every day.
It's a pity that this girl is a stubborn girl. She has been strictly following Yukino Takada's once-a-week tasks. She is limited to speaking quickly and will never go too far.
Yiyin sometimes gets excited and feels uncomfortable when he is neither up nor down.
We need to talk to Yukino later about whether we can relax the conditions and allow Tachibana Kanade to serve the master wholeheartedly from time to time.
If you sit at the same table with Yangno, you can free yourself from restrictions. I'm afraid you won't have many opportunities to indulge in this life.
Haruno is a night owl who protects food. Until she is exhausted, Tachibana Kanade can't even think about getting on the horse and singing.
Every one versus two match has to be divided into two halves. Even if Yiyin is in good health, he can't bear to play every night.
Putting aside the messy thoughts in his mind, Yiyin asked solemnly.
"What's so urgent? Don't you know that I'm discussing something urgent with Zhu Ji?"
Tachibana Kanade still had the same expressionless expression for thousands of years and said calmly.
"Ms. Yuigahama Yui is asking for permission to see you outside with your child. His Highness seems to be injured."
Yiyin's eyes flashed, and he looked at Naomasa Ii who was sitting there. Lan Yi Zhong Kindergarten is a subsidiary of Tong Xin Zhong. What happened?
Ii Naomasa, a fellow writer, also had a confused look on his face and bowed.
"As far as I know, everyone in blue is on a ten-day holiday today and has no study schedule. His Highness should be having fun with His Highness and His Highness the Second.
I don’t know what exactly happened.”
Yiyin narrowed his eyes.
Ii Naomasa was the leader of the central group, with great power and greater responsibilities. She accompanied them to the meeting for a long time. She really had no idea what happened to the blue people.
Yiyin looked at Dazang Changan and several other leaders and said.
“Each executive agency will go back and communicate again, carefully write a petition with relevant ideas about the two-tax system, and submit it to the Tongxin Secretariat. I will take a closer look.
Ii Naomasa and Hanzawa Naoyoshi are staying, and the others should disperse first."
"Hi!"
The followers bowed and left without raising their heads.
Although the Divine Highnesses are young, the ladies behind them don't have many fuel-efficient lamps.
The adherents each have their own backgrounds, but they don’t want to get involved in the affairs of the gods, lest they cause unexpected trouble.
———
After everyone left, Tachibana Kanade brought Yuigahama Yui in.
I saw Yuigahama Yui holding the child, her eyes were red, and tears were still rolling in her eyes.
Yuigahama Dango hugged her mother tightly and never let go, leaning against her mother's chest without looking back.
Ever since the sage discovered the existence of Xiaotuanzi, Yuigahama Yui's life has been getting better and better day by day. She said that she was responsible for the public affairs of the clean government, but in fact she was raising the mother and daughter richly.
Over the years, Yui Ubihama has received various allowances and benefits. Xiaotuanzi is extremely smart and physically strong. Among her peers, she is the only one who bullies others, and no one else can bully her. She lives a comfortable life.
Today, Xiaotuanzi ran home crying. The corners of his forehead and mouth were broken and bleeding, and there were bruises on his chest and abdomen from two feet.
Yuigahama Yui was not ignorant and deliberately disturbed the meeting. It was just that she was used to smooth sailing and had never encountered any trouble. When something really happened, she suddenly became confused and lost her clue.
On weekdays, Naoyoshi Hanzawa would still check things for her, but today Naoyoshi Hanzawa also came to the meeting. She had no one to discuss with, so she made such an untimely and drastic move out of desperation.
In the final analysis, I still love my daughter so much that I am confused.
