Chapter 1003

How can we solve the big population problem? This cannot be solved overnight. However, if the people have the desire to migrate here, and if the government does not have any preferential policies, how many people will be willing?

Wang Yang couldn't help but feel troubled about this matter, and Gao Qiu was reluctant to give up such an opportunity. After all, it would be better if the common people were willing to migrate here.

"Let's do this, don't go back to Yanzhou in the next two days, and stay in the mansion for the time being. I will think about it carefully and see if there is any way to solve this problem."

Gao Qiu nodded, but he seemed to be in a slight way but stopped. Wang Yang couldn't help but say something strange. "Brother Xiude, you are..."

"Actually, Mr. Gao is studying the new methods of Mr. Anshi in the past these days, but he has gained a lot of tips from it..." Gao Qiu decided to tell the truth.

After all, Wang Yang had already proposed that when he was the Strategy and Pacification Envoy of the Three Prefectures, the three prefectures would become a test field for various new systems and new regulations of the Song Dynasty in the future.

Whether it is selling barren fields to merchants, or migrating to the wing army to become naturalized for the people, these are innovations in the old system and old ideas.

The boss did this and was able to get the support of the emperor. The officials in the Three Prefectures naturally understood that they had formed a community of interests with Wang Yang, an enterprising young superior.

Moreover, Wang Yang also printed the new laws implemented during Wang Anshi's reign and handed them over to these local officials.

First, let them read these new methods well, and second, let them try to find faults for these new methods that have been tried, find out what are the shortcomings, and see if there is any way to improve them.

The veteran driver Gao Qiu was very motivated, working hard while learning and absorbing knowledge. The new manuals on Wang Anshi's period issued by Wang Yang are not just for them to learn and experience their own experience.

The above is also about the comments about the new laws that Wang Yang received during his long exchange with the emperor, and was also printed in the booklet by the official Wang.

It can also be regarded as a brainwashing transformation and indoctrination of new ideas for these cultural people who have been behind the thoughts and ideas of Wang Daguan people for nearly a thousand years.

Of course, with the comments of Wang Yang, a talented man from the country who only met once in five hundred years in the Song Dynasty, these officials who are smart people have more experience and experience in their learning.

For example, now, Gao Qiu threw out his ideas and theories. Wang Yang couldn't help but take a breath and looked at Gao Qiu in front of him in surprise.

Gao Qiu’s meaning is very simple. If we say that in our six states, we cannot continue to provide free land, houses, and various production and living materials to the people who intend to migrate.

However, we can borrow, so we adopt a practice similar to the Qingmiao Method implemented during the Wang Anshi period. This directly reminded Wang Yang of small agricultural loans in the 21st century.

The Qingmiao Law originated in the middle and late dynasties of the Tang Dynasty. The central government of the Tang Dynasty was divided by various vassal states. In addition to the insufficient number of troops, the more tragic thing was that it had no money. The Qingmiao Law appeared at that time, and its main purpose was to generate income for the emperor.

The Qingmiao Law of the Song Dynasty increased government income while also suppressing private usury and protecting and providing relief to households. It has a lot to do with the previous regular liquidation system.

The old Changping system mainly used to raise the price of rice in a good year to prevent low grain from harming farmers; to reduce the price of rice in a moderate amount, stabilize prices, and help the people, that is, "reduce market prices when there is a high amount, increase market prices when there is a low amount." When there is a low amount, the price should not be lower than the capital, and there may be profitable.

After Wang Anshi came to power, the Qingmiao Law was implemented in the second year of Xining, stipulating that all households in prefectures and counties could go to the local government to borrow cash or grain to subsidize farming before harvesting for two summer and autumn every year.

The borrower is a combination of the rich and poor, and ten people are insured to check each other. The amount of loan is divided into five levels according to the assets of each household. First-class households can borrow fifteen yuan each time, and the last-class households will always be the same. The loan that year is returned with the summer and autumn taxes, and two cents will be collected for each period, which actually weighs three or four cents.

In the early days, it was implemented on Hebei Road, Jingdong Road and Huainan Road, and later other roads were implemented. This measure was originally intended to curb mergers and to save the people when the Qinghuang was not in the process, but the actual implementation was deviation.

Local officials forced the people to borrow money from the government and raised interest rates at will. In addition, in order to seek credit, officials also had a lot of blackmail, which made the people suffer. In this way, the Qingmiao Law became a harsh policy of government leveraging usury and collecting interest. The implementation was stopped in the first year of Yuanyou.

Wang Yang has never adopted a negative attitude from all Wang Anshi's new laws. After all, he knew very well that in the eyes of Emperor Zhao Xu, Wang Anshi and his father Shenzong were a perfect match, so for any new laws.

Wang Yang would sing chants first, and then criticize and provoke them with reason and reason. For example, this Qingmiao method was pointed out very sharply that although the Qingmiao method is a good law that benefits the people and the country.

However, there are several problems. If they cannot be solved, then the situation of the past will inevitably occur, leading to good laws becoming harmful laws.

First, the government is not only the implementer of the Qingmiao Law, but also the winner of the Qingmiao Law. In this way, how can you ensure that the government can face the interests without being moved?

Look at the reason why Qingmiao Law has changed from a good law to a bad law is because those corrupt officials are forgetful of their righteousness when seeing profits and regard Qingmiao Law as a tool to gain benefits, thus harming the interests of the general public.

Therefore, the Qingmiao Law followed the good laws and became a harmful law. Emperor Zhao Xu had to accept Wang Yang's idea. In other words, he had to admit that Wang Yang's statement was very correct. After all, the integrity of the officials of the Song Dynasty is really not trustworthy.

Especially when you see the benefits, it is already thankful that more than two officials can maintain their original intentions among the ten officials.

"The Qingmiao Law is very harmful. That's because the qualities of those officials are not very reassuring. However, there is Lord Wang on this North Road in Shaanxi. I believe that among the officials in our six states, there are still people who dare to reach out to the Qingmiao Law. I dare not say that there will be no one, but there are definitely very few."

As Gao Qiu said, Wang Yang couldn't help but feel excited. Gao Qiu's intention was not to copy the Qingmiao method from the past and use it directly.

Instead, the Qingmiao Law is used on the fields and houses. If those people who want to migrate cannot follow the Xiangjun for free, then we can simply borrow money to these people who want to migrate.

Then, these people can use this money to buy houses, buy land, etc. After that, the money is spent, and the people also get houses and land.
