Time is like water and fleeting, especially when you are busy. Time is like an elf with wings. It is in front of you one moment and disappears the next moment.
For Wang Yu, who has been busy with battles since his arrival, the peaceful three years of Chuping passed very quickly. Summer went to autumn, autumn passed to winter, and in the blink of an eye, the year was almost over.
In fact, although no war was launched, the General's Mansion has been operating at a high speed and intensely for more than half a year.
There seems to be some chaos in government affairs.
It often happens that a government order is issued today, and problems are discovered within a few days, and then revised, patched, or even overthrown and started over. This kind of routine change of orders day and night is a taboo in policy, and it is easy for government agencies to
Loss of credibility leaves people at a loss as to what to do.
However, in Qingzhou where violating common sense is commonplace, this kind of thing is not a big deal.
Whether a government order is revised or overturned, it will only be carried out after sufficient argumentation. During the preparation period before the government order is issued, extensive discussions will be held in the General's Mansion and the Academy. Everyone can express their opinions and everyone who has ideas can
Opinions that make people shine will be recorded, summarized and summarized.
Once adopted, the name of the person who put forward the opinion will be included in the files of the decree and made public.
This is the opportunity that many people dream of becoming famous, because Qingzhou’s announcement to the public is a real announcement.
Wang Yu's territory is now on both sides of the river. Through waterways and convenient official roads, all government orders will be sent to the official offices of each county by messenger at the first time, and then conveyed from the county to the county, from the county to the township, and finally to the
The pavilion chiefs in each village are in the hands of teachers.
After receiving the letter, the government office will make it public. The county government office will post the notice outside the government office as soon as possible, and the official who guards the notice will explain it. Villages and towns that do not have such conditions will have the notice announced by the pavilion.
The chief will organize the public to explain it on the next holiday. If anyone is anxious, you can also ask the chief of the pavilion or the teacher yourself.
At the beginning, the people did not take this seriously, thinking that these things should be planned by carnivores and had nothing to do with them. But as the public announcement progressed and new decrees were issued, they soon discovered that if they turned a blind eye to this, they would suffer in the end.
It will only be yourself.
The most typical one is the land reclamation order that people love and hate.
This law is definitely good governance, there is no doubt about it. But it also has many drawbacks.
For example, a dispute arises between two families competing for the same piece of land. Nothing can be grown in the reclaimed hillside, but the reclaimer takes over the hilltop, giving rise to many bullies, etc. But these are not the most serious. This is
The biggest disadvantage of laws and regulations is the sense of oppression brought about by laws and regulations. It makes people feel suffocated.
Because everyone wants more land, and if they want it, they have to cultivate it, so everyone is working hard and exhausting themselves. In the original model, those with big families and big businesses undoubtedly have an advantage. They
With more manpower and sufficient tools, the reclamation efficiency is naturally higher than others.
Before the amendment appeared, although some people were aware of it, no one said anything bad about this law. Everything was covered up in the tide of pioneering and enterprising. Once the amendment came out, these shortcomings became apparent.
There are not many changes in the revised law, except for the differences in tax rates.
It used to be that no matter how much land was reclaimed, the tax rate paid was the same, but now there is a distinction.
For example, if a family of five only cultivates ten acres of land, they only need to pay land tax that decreases year by year in accordance with regulations at the beginning of farming. After the prescribed period is over, the ten acres of land will become tax-free private land.
Fifty acres, then the other forty acres will always have to pay taxes.
As the proportion of cultivated land and population increases, the tax rate will become higher and higher. As long as you are willing to endure the 60% full tax, it is not impossible to own thousands of hectares of fertile land with the efforts of a family, but the rate of return is far lower than
The former power.
With just a simple adjustment, the original shortcomings were solved, and the hidden worries of the General's Mansion were eliminated.
Because the new decree also differentiates the nature of the fields, for example: paddy fields have a higher tax rate, and mountain fields do not produce much, but they need to pay a fixed high tax rate, so that a series of thorny problems that have appeared or emerged before have been solved.
Solved. And the enthusiasm of Qingzhou people for development has not been reduced at all.
The name of the person who made this suggestion was written second only to Wang Yu and Guoyuan - the name Zhuge Kongming became famous on both sides of the river.
Of course, Zhuge Liang's suggestions went beyond this. After deciding to stay in Qingzhou, in addition to continuing to study knowledge and conducting discussions with sages and seniors, Zhuge Liang spent most of his time challenging Wang Yu.
The mode of challenge is still that Zhuge Liang seeks trouble and Wang Yu counterattacks.
In this process, although Wang Yu repeatedly gained the upper hand with his two thousand years of knowledge, Zhuge Liang's learning ability was also amazing. Through debates with Wang Yu, he understood the essence of finance and taxation earlier than Mi Zhu, and was flexible
The application of it in governance solved the problems that had plagued Guoyuan for a long time in one fell swoop.
Unlike Pang Tong, who specializes in strategy and warfare, Zhuge Liang has dabbled in many subjects. He has studied and comprehended all the subjects in the liberal arts academy. It is surprising that he is so multi-purpose that he actually has extraordinary attainments in various fields.
.
After six months of contact, Wang Yu finally discovered Zhuge Liang's specialty. To put it bluntly, this person is a human-shaped central computer. Although he is still young and the power is not high enough, his potential power has been clearly shown.
.
In the latest series of government decrees, almost all of them have his name listed on them. Apart from Wang Yu and Tian Feng, he is the most photographed.
For this reason, Tian Feng was alarmed for a time. After a deep conversation with Zhuge Liang, he became interested in talents and decided to pass on his mantle to Zhuge Liang.
In Wang Yu's opinion, the relationship between these celebrities from the Three Kingdoms is a mess.
Zhao Yun, Taishi Ci and Xu Shu became sworn sworn sworn sworn friends; Pang Tong became a disciple of Jia Xu and became fellow apprentices with Wei Yan; Zhuge Liang wanted to inherit Tian Feng's mantle; and Guoyuan was unwilling to be left alone. He recently accepted a student named Xue Zong...
...Wang Yu felt that this name seemed familiar. After thinking about it for a long time, he finally remembered that this person seemed to be a famous person from Soochow, but he appeared in Taishan Academy inexplicably.
All in all, with the improvement of the public notification system and the fame of many future stars, Qingzhou's New Deal is on the right track amid chaos, becoming more and more vital and increasingly accepted by Qingzhou's military and civilians.
Now, the Chamber of Commerce has been established. It has been operating in a stumbling manner for half a year, and it has gradually achieved results. Pei and the trade union have been put on the agenda. This society does not hold any power. Its main responsibility is to discuss politics and make suggestions.
Although he threatened not to proclaim himself emperor, Wang Yu had no intention of giving up his power. In a few decades, organizations such as the Chamber of Commerce may play the role of organizations like the East India Company in the Age of Discovery, but for now, they are just models.
That's all.
The direction of the entire Qingzhou Group, and even Chinese civilization, is firmly in Wang Yu's hands.
In fact, just giving advice has made businessmen and craftsmen feel like they are in a dream and they are overjoyed. They have been suppressed for more than a thousand years and have been left alone. Even if they are given power, they cannot use it well.
Wang Yu is not an idealist, and of course he will not delegate power easily.
With the help of the Chamber of Commerce, Qingzhou's business system has also entered a stage of healthy development.
With the expectation and urging of countless people, the commercial tax system was grandly introduced. This system has gathered the efforts of countless people. At least for now, it is a law that takes care of all aspects.
This is also the first real commercial law in the history of China - the commercial parts of Shang Yang's reform and the commercial laws such as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty were simple and crude, not to promote business, but to
In order to restrict commercial development, it cannot be regarded as a commercial law.
Wang Yu was naturally popular among the public for naming this decree.
Frankly speaking, this is not a big problem for Wang Yu. He has little exposure to business and has no understanding of the history of business development. Even if he wanted to plagiarize, he would not be able to do so.
After thinking about it for a while, he finally came up with a very vulgar name - Commercial Code.
This name has been widely praised and supported. Businessmen originally did not care about the name. For them, the most important thing is that this is a decree established by Wang Yu himself. It has the highest credibility and execution ability, allowing them to put down their
Work hard to make money.
And Wang Yu used the code of law to name it, which was an unexpected surprise to the businessmen. These two words were not fancy, but solemn enough. With such a guarantee, everyone was completely relieved.
Of course Wang Yu was also very happy. This law was very complete. Even Zhuge Liang, the expert in finding faults, did not find any major flaws. He only pointed out a few insignificant details, made a few patches, and added a few details and it was done.
With this code, Qingzhou's business will flourish in an orderly manner, and what the General's Mansion will get from it is rolling wealth, continuous and stable. This wealth will eventually become sharp weapons in the hands of warriors.
, the sturdy armor on the body, adequate clothing and food, which in turn brings a rainbow of momentum and motivation!
Industry is not lagging behind either.
Tian Feng's organizational ability is very strong, and what is most urgently needed in the current industry is not new technology, but new production concepts and order. When Tian Feng focused his main energy on this aspect, Qingzhou industry became orderly
There is nothing surprising about the development.
Process subdivisions, assembly lines, the new apprenticeship system, and the pending patent bill were all proceeding in an orderly manner. Even though Wang Yu successively introduced multiple new technologies including printing, they did not disrupt the pace of industrial development.
One-step movable type printing is a technology that Wang Yu has been brewing. He feels that this technology is much more important than guns and artillery.
At present, the smooth implementation of Qingzhou's government decrees mainly depends on the geographical location. When the territory expands in the future, this convenience will not be available.
Therefore, even without Cai Yan's urging, Wang Yu was very enthusiastic about it. In the near future, the only things that can replace the announcement of government decrees and achieve better results are the various changes caused by printing, including
