Wang Anshi said it a little vaguely, but someone immediately knew what he was going to do. Tang Jie loudly scolded Wang Anshi for being Sang Hongyang.

Zheng Lang was watching the other people. He had had several dealings with Lu Huiqing. He had to admit that he was a capable official, but this person was definitely not a good comrade-in-arms. Xiao Su was actually a little famous among the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties. If it weren't for Da Su, it might not be his turn. But this person's perseverance was not imagined by ordinary people. He was his student, but not the student Zheng Lang liked, including Da Su, Wang Anshi and Sima Guang. What Zheng Lang really liked was Fan Chunren and Lu Gongzhu, Yan Rong. Maybe this was called birds of feathers flock together, and of course, he would not express this emotion.

Among these people, Zheng Lang's favorite person is hard to imagine. It is not Xiao Su or one of his favorite subordinates Xue Xiang, but Zhang Dun, who is considered a villain, but he is a real villain. As for Xue Xiang, who has served as his subordinate in Hangzhou, in fact, from Taipingzhou, from Cai Ting to the deceased Yang Cha, to Lu Gongbi’s brothers, Sima Guang, Xue Xiang, Han Jiang, and his teenage subordinates, they have now become famous figures.

Lu Jiawen also came from the Lu family in Shouzhou. This lineage is very large. There are thirty or forty officials in the court and the country alone. Logically, Lu Jiawen was still the grandson of Lu Gongbi, either his relatives, or Lu Jiawen's grandfather's Taizu Gong, the minister of the Ministry of Revenue of the Later Tang Dynasty, Lu Mengqi, was the Taizu Gong of Lu Gongbi's brothers. He was a little far from his brothers, and he was also a child of the Lu family. It is said that Lu Jiawen was a treacherous minister and he was not very easy to talk about Zheng Lang.

Not to mention Lu Jia's question, even if he meets Cai Jing, Zheng Lang will treat him rationally. With Zhao Ji as the emperor, and with a bad economic situation, there will be Cai Jing in history, and without Cai Jing, there will be Zhang Jing, Wang Jing. If Zhao Ji is not the emperor, the economic situation is good, Cai Jing may not be Cai Jing in history. Not to mention the small Lu Jia's question.

Whether Cai Jing will appear or whether Lu Jiawen will appear depends on the effect of the troubles over the past two years.

Sweeping through the five people, my eyes a little confused.

Wang Anshi and Sima Guang were both stubborn people, but Sima Guang was better. From Bao Zheng's persuasion to drink, it can be seen that neither of them did not drink. Bao Zheng was unhappy and forced him to persuade him, but Wang Anshi just didn't drink, but Sima Guang drank a little less.

Therefore, he persuaded Sima Guang, regardless of whether Sima Guang really listened or not. He immediately joined forces with Wang Anshi to report that the impeachment of the Nanjiao sacrifice was amazing.

If you can persuade Sima Guang, you may not be able to persuade Wang Anshi.

When he was confused, Tang Jie became more and more energetic. Not only Tang Jie, but also Zhao Yan and Wang Anshi entered the Secretariat and had conflicts with them many times. The reason was simple. These two people had a direct name in the world. Now the country is so embarrassed that the two of them did not do anything? Because they took on something with Zhao Yan, they said angrily: "You guys can't sit still and study!"

Zhao Yan was also angry and said, "Your words have been lost. When Gao, Kui, Ji, Qi, what books can you read?"

At that time, there were words, oracle bone inscriptions, engraved in caves or shells, and there were definitely no books or papers. Wang Anshi often said that the ancient Dazhi was the one who used this to fight back, but Wang Anshi was silently unable to answer after hearing this.

However, Zhao Yan and Wang Anshi are currently in conflict with each other, and Zhao Yan also wants to make the country better, but he really can't think of a masterpiece, so he had to wait for the results of Zheng Lang's reform in fear.

The biggest conflict is Tang Jie.

History books belittle Wang Anshi, but Tang Jie was actually wrong. When he was old, he was still a young version of Ouyang Xiu. He couldn't control his big mouth and was qualified to be old. Therefore, when Wang Anshi and Tang Jie clashed, Zheng Lang was also silent. Although he was a little wary of Wang Anshi and was afraid that he would be an aid. Then, Zeng Gongliang was named Prime Minister and could only be a messenger. Zhao Yan helped a lot. Wen Yanbo had always been suspicious. This is the composition of the current Secretariat, which made Zheng Lang very miserable.

Tang Jie is already in the way.

Of course, it is not good for Tang Jie, but Tang Jie is good, but it is still possible to use it in the right place. If you spray it, you should be careful when doing things. What should you do in the Zhongshu? This is the place where you do things, not the place where you criticize people!

Wang Anshi remained silent, and Tang Jie became more and more excited as he spoke.

Zheng Lang continued to think randomly, his thoughts drifted farther and farther away. Suddenly, he thought of something. The situation in the NDRC was similar to that at this time, but it didn't matter. There was the NDRC. The housing prices were pushed higher and higher, and he could make a living by selling land. But one day, the bubble would explode with a crackling sound. It is estimated that the result after the explosion was even worse than that in Japan. There were many people who knew it, but the few people who could control the situation did not think about the consequences of the explosion, but how to squeeze the people's savings of decades of peace before the explosion, and then get out in time. The key was that at that time, the region could not make a living by selling land. The clumsiness of diplomacy led to strong enemies looking around. At that time, the triple crisis was oppressed. What should the country do?

This thought makes the problem very big.

Leave it for the descendants to solve the problem, and leave it for the descendants a great wealth and heritage!

Suddenly, I couldn't help laughing, what did I do a thousand years ago?

Tang Jie was very angry, and Wang Anshi finally spoke, staring at Tang Jie seriously. Tang Jie knew very well that he was just using this to start a dispute with him in the court, losing the court ceremony, and one, two or three died together. Is it worth it?

Wang Anshi calmly asked: "Duke Tang, how is this year's beauty?"

"what?"

"Is there a drought in the north?" Wang Anshi asked again. The drought in the north was not serious, but it caused a decline in the harvest in the north. Not only did it affect the summer harvest, but it may also be absent in the autumn harvest in the north. Wang Anshi said again: "I have a bad proposal. I don't know what kind of high opinions Tang Gong, as a political affairs officer, can make the country safe?"

"Even if not, we cannot compete with the people for profit!"

"If this is the case, what is the responsibility of the shipping department? Gong Tang, the Secretariat is a place for work, not a place for quarrels. It's okay if the man is in a position of a single meal. Anyway, the country has so many idle officials, so it doesn't matter if he has a member of the government affairs, but please don't hinder the country's affairs. Please." Wang Anshi bowed seriously.

"You!" Tang Jie was so angry that he almost fell to the ground.

After a quarrel, Tang Jie was just a rough brother, and Wang Anshi truly turned this knowledge into the height of art.

Zhao Xu couldn't stand it and announced the scattered dynasty, but the officials of the two provinces, the Censorate, the Three Departments, and the Three Halls went to the Capital Hall to discuss matters. The Three Halls were Chongwen Hall, the History Hall and the Jixian Academy. Because Emperor Wu of Han was demoted to the military, the financial tension was caused, and Sang Hongyang had to be appointed to initiate economic reforms. Under the leadership of Sang Hongyang, the official business of salt, iron and wine was successively implemented, both were lost, evenly, calculated, sued, sued, and unified coins. It was said that history said that the people did not benefit the tax and the world was free, and the bad thing was to compete for profit with the people. In fact, during the reform, Sang Hongyang was opposed by many powerful and great merchants. In the end, Huo Guang was killed due to political struggles.

What Wang Anshi did seemed to be quite similar to Sang Hongyang's mutual savings. Therefore, the officials of the three museums were summoned and everyone discussed together, using history as a guide to see if they could find another way out for the Song Dynasty.

Walking towards the capital, Mr. Lu came to Zheng Lang and whispered: "Mr. Zheng, that..."

"I know." Zheng Lang replied, it was not a car crash, but a plagiarism himself.

After sitting down at the capital, Zhao Xu looked at Tang Jie and Wang Anshi and said, "Wang Qing, Tang Qing, you are all my right-hand men. Is there anything that I can't say well? Why bother arguing at the court meeting?"

Even if you are quarreling, you can have a smaller impact when you come to the city.

Tang Jie said: "I am thankful to your Majesty's love. I cannot work hard for you. I have always been in poor health. I suffered from cervical rhinoceros when I went south. Now it is getting worse. Please allow me to retire and return home to support my disabled years."

"Oh, thank you for your hard work," Zhao Xu comforted. Then he looked at Zheng Lang worriedly, and Zheng Lang shook his head.

There are many causes of this kind of cerose attack, but there is one kind of situation. The kind with a high incidence rate. That is, after the northerners went south and before Guangdong and Guangxi were developed, there were damp and toxic substances everywhere, and the air contained some toxic substances. In addition, the humid and stuffy climate in the south, northerners are often prone to various diseases, including cerose in the middle. Now the situation in Guangdong and Guangxi has become better than before. It is densely populated and there are fewer and fewer so-called miasma. However, the people still have various diseases and often malaria occurs. This is to avoid No. Especially malaria, which causes hundreds of people to die in the south every year. It can only be said that the situation is getting better and better, but it cannot be said that it cures it. Not only the south, but also the climate in the southwest is easy to cause cervical carcinoma. Tang Jie went south to Guangdong and Guangxi earlier than Zheng Lang, first in Chunzhou and then in Yingzhou, which was the hidden danger left by two demotions in that year. But it also depends on individuals. Di Qing's cervical carcinoma was probably caused by the south, and Tang Jie was the same, but some people did not, Zheng Lang, Su Dongpo, Ding Wei and others, and they have never had cervical carcinoma.

Zhao Xu was still a little worried.

Zheng Lang sighed and said, "Your Majesty, if I am in poor health, I will be exhausted in the past two years, even if I am tired, I will be exhausted."

Zhao Xu sighed.

He started talking about the serious matter and said to Wang Anshi: "Wang Qing, can you tell me in detail?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry," Zheng Lang interrupted Zhao Xu and said, "Your Majesty, can you read a previous archive?"

“Archive?”

"Yes, it was a letter written by Zeng Ming in the fifth year of the Qingli period of the Qingli period. It recorded the conversation between me and Fu Bi, Zhang Fangping, Cai Xiang, Zeng Mingzhong, and Wang Yaochen. It was written by Lu Gong at that time, and later compiled by Zeng Mingzhong and presented it to His Majesty Renzong. These were all immature reform plans. Because there were many controversies, Renzong archived it and has not been published. I think it should be still there. Can someone be sent to find it?"

"Okay," Zhao Xu called out a few eunuchs to find the archive.

Zeng Gongliang also remembered this incident. Wang Anshi went around the regulations of the three departments, and what he said was a little different. Therefore, Zeng Gongliang did not pay attention at first. Zheng Lang raised it and thought of it, asking: "Is it the method of enlightenment, or the method of equal export?"

"Just just the southeast food and grass is called equal transportation. If all the goods in the world are called market changes."

Of course, Wang Anshi didn't know it, and asked suspiciously: "What is the equal-to-export method, and what is the market-to-exchange method?"

This shows that Wang Anshi's idea is not very mature at this time.

"That is, your proposal, the smaller ones only target food, which is called equal loss, and the larger ones target the world's goods and obtain a large amount of wealth for the court in a short period of time, which is called market changes."

"Isn't this a good thing?" Zhao Xu asked hesitantly.

"Your Majesty, if all goods are subject to actual tax based on the new commercial tax, how much commercial tax will be levied in a year?"

"I'm hard to know."

"Is there any seventy or eighty million cords?"

"so much?"

"I only talk about food. During the Qingli period, it may be a barely enough. Now, it is about 100 million people. The non-farmers living in towns are about 15 to 20%," but not necessarily, but there are more than 300 state troops and more than 1,000 county towns in the country, which is not enough. Because of the dense population, many markets have been promoted to towns, such as Zhengjiazhuang, which has now become Zheng Town in organization, and Meili Town (Changshu) in Suzhou and Shita Town in Shuzhou (Anqing). The scale of the city is far greater than that of ordinary county towns, and it is similar to that of medium-sized prefecture towns. The proportion of urban population is 100%.

There must be some at 15. Zheng Lang said again: "There are mulberry farmers, weaving farmers, fruit farmers, temples, military households, fishermen, craftsmen, official households, etc. scattered in the countryside. They do not mainly farm, or cultivate in small quantities. Is this proportion more than 30%? More than 30% is the flow of goods of 100 million stones of grain, with a value of 40 to 50 million yuan. But what the people buy is not only food, food, clothing, housing and transportation. Everything is essential. Grain is only a part of food, and its proportion accounts for less than one tenth, or even less than one twenty. The average tax rate of 5% is levied. How much commercial tax can the country levy in a year?"

"Not to mention commercial taxes, let alone the two taxes, the area of ​​arable land on the list during the reign of Emperor Zhenzong was more than 5.2 million hectares of arable land. In fact, it was faintly close to 7 million hectares at that time, and now it has been more than 1 million hectares of arable land. Is there a huge amount of 8 million hectares? One mu of land is more than 8 million. In fact, the households who collect taxes on arable land are more than one mu, and the heavy tax areas pay more than one stone. Your Majesty, do you still remember Wang Shilin, the Wuwei Army when the official investigation last year?"

"Remember," Zhao Xu shook his head.

Since the Wuwei Army opened Jiangdongwei, it has become one of the main areas in the country. The grain yield in the dike area is high and has been cultivated for many years. The grain output of one acre of land and two seasons has gradually increased to five and a half stones. So the Zhijun Wang Shilin became famous for levying taxes. When the Beijing officials went down to investigate, they actually charged a high tax of two stones and two dou of land. Don't expect to hand it over to the court together. Many accounts were not clear, and they were completely dismissed and never hired. This is Jiangdongwei. If it was placed in the north, the output of two seasons might be less than two stones. If it was levyed in the front, the people would probably have rioted later.

Everyone knows what Zheng Lang means.

There is no need to pay more. If you really pay all the commercial taxes to the court, you will get at least 70 to 80 million yuan a year, rather than the current shortage of 20 million yuan. If there is no hidden land, all the two taxes will be paid to the court at least 100 million yuan, or 100 million yuan, which cannot be calculated. The two will increase by more than 100 million out of thin air. After some fine adjustments, the expenditure will be saved, and the banking department will be released again. In two years, the world will be in debt.

But is it possible?

Zheng Lang said again: "Your Majesty, and you have all the ministers. When I was young, I suddenly realized and studied hard. What were I thinking at that time?"

"What is it?" Zhao Xu asked curiously.

"If you have a good fortune, you will not be imprisoned and humiliated after having a good fortune. If you have a good fortune, you will be exempted from taxes and taxes for your family's arable land and industry. You can enjoy this peaceful time with peace of mind, read a few paintings, or occasionally play the piano, and wander around the mountains and rivers. I would not be too disgusted at that time, but why did I have this idea?"

Everyone was speechless together, mostly from this step, and often had similar ideas.

"If excessive invasion of national interests, the country will inevitably be poor and weak, and excessive exploitation of the people will be desperate, and they will inevitably rise up. Don't talk about the wealthy families in our dynasty, where are the five surnames and seven families in the Tang Dynasty? This is the truth, but in this situation, how many people can jump out and see through it?"

This topic is too heavy and it is so heavy that everyone can't make a sound.

Zheng Lang looked at Wang Anshi and said, "Jiefu, you have a good idea. Merchants go for profit, but they can't do without merchants. All businessmen cannot live. Because of the development of business, our dynasty is richer than other dynasties. Because of the developed business, the southeast is far richer than the southwest. Therefore, when I went south, my first task was to open the road from Jiangnan West Road to Liangjing so that the business could be more circulated. But merchants go for profit, so their moral character is slightly lower. The bigger the merchants are, the more greedy they are, they ignore the country and the people. Anyway, they are harsh on the people, and they also cut off the country, and they don't even want to pay taxes. So you directly seized the right to do business, right?"

"Mr. Zheng, I don't have the courage to do this either. I just adjust some of the country's needs and reduce unnecessary waste."

"No matter what kind of intentions, your intention is good. In this way, I will first talk about Sang Hongyang and Shang Yang, and historical books are mostly humble. However, historical books are all written by people, and they must have a personal touch. Sima Qian wrote "Records of the Grand Historian". Because Han Wu punished him for defending Li Ling and castrated him, he attacked many practices in history books, and praised Huang Lao for his inaction and ruled by Huang Lao several times. But Wen Jing and Renzong were really Huang Lao for his inaction and ruled by Huang Lao? If that were the case, I would not have been impressed by Renzong and would have been so busy for a lifetime."

Zhao Xu smiled.

"Because Shang Yang's reforms and Sang Hongyang's reforms both harmed many powerful and powerful interests, the literati and officials later were too ashamed of the fact that without the good foundation laid by Shang Yang, the Qin Dynasty would not have been able to unify the six countries. Of course, the rule of law could be stronger than the six countries, but it could not be peaceful in the world, so Qin was also destroyed by the rule of law. If Sang Hongyang had not reformed in time, the country would have been poor in the late Han Wu period, and the country would have been unable to survive the critical moment smoothly. Even if Huo Guang was in power and Han Xuan was in power, he would have used more strategies. At least without Sang Hongyang, how could there be a few special businesses of our dynasty?"

Su Zhe said: "Mr. Zheng Gong evaluated justice. Regardless of whether Shang Yang and Sang Hongyang are right or wrong, some of them are worthy of recognition."

Zheng Lang gave him a blank look and said in his heart, Xiao Su, can you guarantee that your ideas will remain unchanged? At this time, the eunuch also found the archives and brought them to the capital. Zheng Lang passed them to the public and said, "Reform will inevitably hurt some people's losses. If you dare not offend the powerful and the literati and the literati, the more you change, the more chaotic it will cause, and it will cause more harsh governments and the people. It is better not to change. If you want to benefit the country and the ordinary people, you must take out the interests of the literati and the literati and the literati and the literati and the literati and the tyrants and redistribute them. But... what will happen if you offend this group? It's so difficult! In the past two years, I have racked my brains. If I hadn't had my hair turned white, I would probably have turned white now."

Fu Bi's leg is sick and has not been to court today. Zeng Gongliang and Lu Gong no longer need to see it, Zheng Lang no longer needs to see it, and directly came to Zhao Yan and Wang Anshi.

The first is the Qingmiao method.

This reform has been implemented long ago and was implemented with the warehouse law. However, Zheng Lang regards it as an auxiliary reform. He must not distribute green crops to third-class households or above, mainly for households below fifth-class households. For households below fifth-class households, they can only issue green crop loans if they are injured. For example, if their family members are sick or other special circumstances, they can only issue green crop loans. The main ones are fifth-class households. After eating in the morning and not at night, when the Qinghuang does not accept the green crops, a green crop loan will be released, and the family will have a chance of life. As for third-class households, do they need it? If they release it, it will either become a harsh act of the people or be misappropriated, and treat it as a loan of 60 to 300% of the people. The second is to ignore political achievements to avoid troubles from officials.

Therefore, the harm after the implementation of the Qingmiao Law was very small and almost ignored, but there were still some disadvantages. Zheng Lang then sent officials to investigate. Seeing that the investigation was strict, if they were distributed to households below the fifth grade, they were worried that they would not be able to take it back, so the officials did not want to cause trouble and refused to let them go. The Qingmiao Law was soon abandoned.

There have been some disputes in the court for this.

Zheng Lang explained that there is nothing else, there is no good official. It is impossible not to expect them to be like Bao Zheng Zhao Yan.

If you want to use it to benefit in the next life, it is very dangerous to distribute it to the fifth-class household. If two or three out of ten cannot be taken back, then the officials will not distribute it to the fifth-class households, but will force the levy to the fourth-class households, which will disturb the people! Or use it to do good deeds. At that time, Zheng Lang had not conducted a profound analysis of human nature, but said that the rich may not be bad people, and the poor may not be good people. There are also rogues among the poor, which is inevitable. Just like a beautiful woman in Sichuan, it should be true. Everyone is a beautiful woman? Those who issue usury dare to give it up and do everything they can to collect loans. However, can the court do this? No! These debts cannot be recovered. There are some people who are so poor that they cannot open the pot, so how can they repay it? Or the court, like those usury loan households, force these poor families to sell their children? This is not terrible. Once the large debt cannot be recovered, many officials will inevitably be moved and embezzle them on the grounds of borrowing bad debts.

It is good governance, but a good governance that cannot be implemented.

Of course, Wang Anshi did not praise him even if he implemented the case in history. Although the court increased the income of millions of dollars every year, the few who helped the people were mostly the result of forced levies.

Wu Yu also made similar measures in Luoyang, asking Yanchen to impeach him. Regardless of right or wrong, Wu Yu succeeded and took it back. But that was Wu Yu, a famous Qing official during the Renzong Dynasty. How many ministers could there be like Wu Yu?

This controversy was a bit sensational, so Zheng Lang wrote it, but it was not completely implemented, and he even silently believed that the Qingmiao Law was abandoned. Wang Anshi knew the reason, so he looked down. The second article was the equal-to-export method, and the third article was the market-to-exchange method!
Chapter completed!
