Chapter 371 Embarrassment(2/2)
If you understand, your heart is despicable, it is clearly cursing the bosses of the two governments.
"It's not bad, the country's lack of resources is because it has not obtained anyone who is good at managing finances." Wang Anshi also avoided it. He also did not want to overturn the big bosses of the two governments.
"A person who is good at managing finances is just a person who can quit civil affairs. The poor people are robbed and robbed is not a blessing for the country."
"No, people who are good at managing finances will not increase taxes, but use them sufficiently."
Sima Guang was as if he was hit by a thunder. He was stunned at first, and then immediately said angrily: "How can this happen? The resources produced by heaven and earth are limited. If it is not in the people, it is in the officials. If it rains as a result, it will cause disasters in summer. If it rains heavily, it will cause drought in autumn. If it does not increase taxes and makes sufficient use, it is just to try to seize the interests of the people and make more harm than to increase taxes. This is what Sang Hongyang deceives Emperor Wu of Han, and Shigong Taishi recorded it. By the end of Emperor Wu of Han, stolen taxes flocked to the sky, almost causing chaos. If Emperor Wu did not repent, the Han Dynasty would almost perish."
The two of them learned well and quoted scriptures. Poor Comrade Wang was stunned when he heard this. He said half a day later: "The disaster relief period should start from the ministers who are close to you. Sima Guang said it right, but the rewards cost little. If you don't give them, you may harm the country's body. Wang Anshi's statement was correct. He had to ask the wise master to make a decision."
Zhao Xu also had a headache when he heard this, so he couldn't argue anymore. After the two of them continued to argue, they wanted to show off all the historical books and classics together, so they said: "I have the same intention as Sima Guang, so I might as well not approve their dictionary to reply to them."
But he was like Lao Wang, both sides were mixed. Although he agreed with Sima Guang's opinion, he asked Wang Anshi to write an edict. Wang Anshi then used the edict to use the example of Chang Gun to blame the two mansions.
In fact, these two ideological conflicts became the main theme behind. But who was right? Undoubtedly, Wang Anshi said it more accurately. The facts should not be based on the later, but the Song Dynasty did not add much tax, but the country's income was steadily increasing.
Think about how much income the Song Dynasty could have when Zhao Kuangyin conquered the country. It was a pity that he got the money and silk from Shu. He was so happy that he opened the inner treasury to keep it. It was a lot of money. Can he make up for the current Song Dynasty’s owed debt? Although I don’t know how much, I believe it is just a Shu Kingdom, a decaying Shu Kingdom, which is only tens of millions. It is not enough for the current Song Dynasty’s annual military expenditure!
However, Wang Anshi did not find a real way to make full use of taxes, which caused real controversy.
In fact, Zhao Xu was speechless. You are not as good as a young man after arguing. At least he made me transform into eight million, otherwise life would be even harder this year!
Therefore, he thought of what Wang Ju said about the layoffs.
This is also divided into several steps. The first step starts with the imperial examination and controls the number.
The second step is to start with Enyin and cut the quantity.
As for the current officials, there is no need to wait. Each prefecture and county will issue one to two people, and each department will also distribute one or two people. As clerks and officials. One is to target local tyrants, and they will be clerks, and they will curb some bold tyrants. The other is to give them some benefits and have the power to report memorials. They will use them to supervise the superiors, which will create fierce or even fierce competition and force local officials to act as. If they are not able, they will be eliminated immediately. However, as these clerks, they are clerks and are actually alternate officials, and those who report memorials must be truthful, otherwise the officials will also be cleaned up. Then, in less than ten years, the phenomenon of redundant officials will gradually disappear.
But Wang Ju repeatedly explained that the last one must be done with caution. After all, doing so will cause great controversy and commotion. The second one will reduce the quota of grace, which will also cause controversy and dissatisfaction.
The second step of layoffs is not yet time, so can this cut of grace be done?
So Zhao Xu called Wang Anshi to ask.
"Reduce the grace?" Wang Anshi was stupid. He was so embarrassed that he could not answer well, and he could not answer well! To be continued
