"Xingzhi, let's talk about the last reform," It's not just a simple person to squeeze into the ranks of the audience. Zheng Lang first released the contract of the two supervisors and released another good news. He said so much today. He will not be the equal loss method. Although there are disputes over the equal loss method, are there still fewer disputes in the past two years? Therefore, the subsequent reform will definitely be more troublesome. Fu Bi was worried and frowned and said, deliberately biting the last two words very seriously. You can't make any more troublesome. If you continue to torture, Zheng Xingzhi, your popularity will soon dissipate, and will become the target of thousands of people like Han Qi!

"There are four items in total, first one farming and two horses in Shaanxi," Zheng Lang said.

Departed from Shaanxi's supply.

The freight fee for materials to arrive in Shaanxi is too high. First, arrive at Sanmen, turn to land, then carry a small boat from the upstream of Sanmenxia and transport it to the Wei River, and then pass through a dry road of six or seven hundred miles or even nearly a thousand miles. A small cart of goods transported to the front line.

Not only food, but also weapons, armor, tents, etc., soldiers' clothes, quilts, shoes, socks, daily necessities, wine, medicinal materials, mixed grains, chickens, and forage for horses. The merchants, family members, military prostitutes, and civilians who serve transportation all need to provide them, and food is only part of it.

After the end of the Qingli War, one by one was dismissed. The more laid off, the fewer relevant members accompanied by the passage, and the reduced supply. Another Sanbai Canal was found. In addition to the years of drought, Shaanxi could barely remain equal in terms of food. This alone saved a lot of expenses.

But as Li Liangzuo used troops again, Han Qi prepared for 450,000 troops, more than 200,000 imperial guards, more than 100,000 village soldiers, and tens of thousands of foreign soldiers. Not only did the volunteers, strong men, archers and wing soldiers in Shaanxi. The cost of this expanded sharply again. The more soldiers, the more relevant personnel they brought, and the more materials needed were needed to transport them, forming a bad cycle. This became one of the black holes in the financial sanctions. After Zheng Lang took office, he cut them one by one. However, facing the brutal Liang family, he had to retain hundreds of thousands of troops.

Now Shaanxi is still one of the heavy financial burdens of the Song Dynasty.

Therefore, this policy of one farming and two seals was established.

Farming is not farming, but water conservancy.

The court allocated 10 million yuan in two years to ask Cheng Shimeng to go to Shaanxi to find some places where it is easy to repair the dam to divert rivers and build some reservoirs. It is not built directly on the river section, and there is too much mud and sand, but to divert water. It stores sand through the sand storage tank, then enters the reservoir, and then builds rivers and canals downstream. More areas are irrigated, even in the year of drought, because these reservoirs will ensure a certain harvest. They are then matched with Sanbai Canal, and even if there is a new military force in Shaanxi, it can barely keep the grain even if it is not a year of disaster.

This is reclaiming. If reclaiming, it will destroy the originally weak water and soil. Therefore, the second is to seal the mountains and seal the mountains!

Forced mountain blocking is not feasible. There are also ways to migrate some mountainous people with very few people. Plant thorns on these hillsides. These thorns have strong vitality and grow very quickly. They can block all mountain roads in a few years. So no matter who they are, they will not succeed in cutting wood in these mountainous areas. Use this to protect the soil and water.

It turns out that if Zheng Lang said it, everyone would believe it and doubt it.

Shaanxi is already implementing similar environmental protection measures. Some barren mountains are gradually greening, with trees on top and alfalfa on the bottom. In some areas with less crowded populations, the turbidity of rivers has gradually been reduced because the water and soil are protected.

Zheng Lang's approach this time was even more extreme, so he simply used thorns to seal some mountainous areas with little value into unmanned areas.

This is not much controversy, it is money. Zhao Yan hesitated and said: "Ten millions are not small numbers. If there were no problems before, the current finances are tight, and to appease the people's hearts, it would take millions of dollars a year to pay interest. Will it be implemented later?"

"Yuedao, the burden is huge and cannot be repaid in one or two years. This year, the banking supervision profits will be freed, and the country will have a surplus, and some of the funds can be allocated. Liang's family is ambitious. The northwest cannot be calm. Implement it earlier, and it is temporarily a expenditure. In the future, it will generate a lot of savings year by year, and it will also benefit the people of Shaanxi. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the development of Guanzhong in the Tang Dynasty has matured, and the conditions in Shaanxi are good. However, with the war in the northwest, the people of Shaanxi have undertaken a lot of military service, and other roads have developed in great strides. Only if Shaanxi stops and fails to move forward, they should provide some good policies to help them cultivate and maintain their children."

Zhao Yan couldn't make a sound anymore.

In general, this article will not only be in the capital, but also after implementation.

But Zheng Lang also has another purpose in implementing it, which is to make tea in the following article.

The state's operation is inefficient, with serious corruption and waste, and the profits will decrease accordingly. However, the most serious damage to tea is the money law.

Zhao Kuangyi was kind-hearted when he was executed.

The northwest uses troops, and the freight costs are amazing. If the state power is used to transport it, the cost will become very high because of efficiency and corruption. If you really buy it, you don’t have to pay more. If you bid 300 yuan per bucket, you believe that the merchants will have a way to transport the grain to the front line of Shaanxi, and it is also a top-notch grain. But in that case, it will disrupt the grain price of Shaanxi and make the people live in the city. First, the people who live in the city will not be able to live on their lives. So Zhao Kuangyi came up with a solution, first issuing tea bills and then salt bills, so that the merchants can transport the grain to the front line by changing the bills. The difference between military ration and civilian rations is not only guaranteed to use the grain for soldiers, but also did not disturb the price of private grain.

At first it was good, but the only ones who had the ability to do it were only those powerful households. Gradually, tea and salt banknotes were controlled by the powerful. What would happen if they were controlled by them? They had a backend, were unscrupulous, and even transported food that was not eaten that had not been eaten for many years, or just mixed sand and soil into the grain, which could be washed away. What should I do if I mixed sand? Who has the ability to choose clean grain one by one? Some merchants even saved the shipping costs in Shaanxi, and then poured some sand into it, used as cash and sent it to the military camp. It also affected the price of civilian grain in Shaanxi, making the people miserable.

The profit of more than 20 million yuan that is likely to be generated by the tycoons is gradually controlled by the powerful. More than half of the food consumed by soldiers is ruined and cannot be eaten. Now it has caused a very embarrassing problem. The court transports the food itself. Needless to say, it returns to the original topic. Severe waste and corruption will inevitably aggravate the hard work of the people. If you buy food, it will further disrupt the grain prices in Shaanxi. Knowing this disadvantage, no one dares to speak, and Zheng Lang cannot speak, because there is no good way to solve it.

This major repair of the reservoir can resolve the troubles caused by some of the food, but I want to completely solve the problem of food. There is only one thing to eliminate the Western Xia, completely reduce the garrison, and introduce some policies to make the Northwest self-sufficient. No matter what tea or salt money is needed.

The reason why the court changed the tea method over and over again was not the complaints of the soldiers on the front line, and the powerful men were getting too overdoing it. In order to deal with tea, the country did not know how many officials they used, but in the end, it only made a profit of hundreds of thousands of yuan a year. In fact, the miscellaneous expenses and official salaries were deducted, which was a serious loss. A tea tea has damaged the interests of many tea farmers and small and medium-sized tea vendors. Think about why Li Shun and Wang Xiaobo revolt. Why is this a problem?

So from the time of Liu E, he went to Zhao Zhen's later years, and then he implemented the Trade Law. Han Qi's trade law has three items. The first is to provide tea households with annual classes of three departments. Anyone who uses 680,000 yuan in vain money, and the annual income of county officials is several times more expensive than when they lose tea. The court is unable to do so, so it will be half of it. The annual income of vain money is 338,000 yuan in vain money (some are too many, and some are too few are insufficient), which is called rent money.

The so-called renting money is when the Song Dynasty encouraged tea farmers to grow tea, gave some capital support, and then carried out tea administration franchise. In other words, there were also part of the imperial court in the name of the tea garden, but in fact, this was a disguised tax increase. Tea farmers also had to pay two taxes, and in addition to the two taxes, the rent was paid by more than 300,000 yuan.

But it is not too harsh. There are so many tea gardens in the country. Even if more than 80% of the big merchants evade taxes and rents, the remaining 20% ​​of the tea farmers will not be under too much pressure. It has its positive side. But it has also become a reason for opponents. The court system did not add additional quotations to the people. In the past, it was given money to the tea farmers, but now it was given additional quotations to the tea farmers. In the past, it was punished by smuggling tea vendors, but now it may be punished by good people who cannot pay taxes. These are all cunning statements.

Even if the tax is paid, as long as the court does not do anything, it will actually be considered a heavy rent for less than 10% of the tea farmers. On the contrary, if the tea farmers can grow good tea, they will definitely gain greater economic benefits. Besides, the smuggling tea vendors are not good, so it turns out that those big merchants are good people?

The reason why there have been opposition voices is that after the implementation of this trade law, the huge profit margin has gradually been acquired by all large, medium and small tea merchants. It is impossible for the powerful to monopolize it. This is the reason why the tea government reforms failed many times due to opposition voices.

The second article is to save all the capitals and wait for border purchases, and make money from tea. The court can allow officials from all walks of life to participate and grab a profit from the merchants to fill the treasury.

Article 3: Thirteen events were abolished, six cases of goods were deemed, officials were cut, and expenses were reduced. Only the ban on wax tea was as old as before, and the trash tea was sold all over the world.

In short, it is probably the case that the garden households grow tea, the officials collect rent and the merchants sell tea, and the government collects commercial taxes again, and then all the bans are abolished, which is called commercial law.

The reform was not very thorough, so Zheng Lang simply carried out a thorough trade law. Zheng Lang did not move to the so-called rent money, but assigned the rent money collection task to the local area instead of the officials under the three departments to collect one by one, causing unnecessary labor costs.

The second article was eliminated. The court paid the capital to all the roads, and the amount of tea purchases was huge. However, officials and businessmen colluded with each other and gave harsh tea farmers, forcing them to sell them at low prices to the government, and then joined forces with the big merchants to sell them at high prices. The court paid the capital but never made any profit. On the contrary, because one buys and sells one by one during the process of tea purchases, there are still a large amount of expensive labor costs. This is gone, and the merchants directly trade with the tea farmers.

Unless in special circumstances, the shipping department submits the reason and applies to the Registration Department, and the Registration Department negotiates with the three departments, the shipping department can occasionally purchase tea to balance the tea price.

But even this abolition will generate a lot of opposition. The court has not made any profits, but actually made profits. The officials and giants below have made a lot of profits. Although they are not as huge as those of the money and practice tea, the profits are not small.

As long as the previous execution is implemented, Gai Tian’s opposition to public opinion will be raised later.

Article 3 is improved, and all relevant tea places, goods, and prohibited tea varieties, including wax tea, will be implemented together to implement the trade law.

The reason why some tea species are retained is that it is because Shaanxi needs money and grain, so Zheng Lang is planning to spend 10 million yuan to let Cheng Shimeng go down to major in water conservancy. First, Cheng Shimeng was a good official, not harsh people or greedy, and second, Cheng Shimeng was proficient in water conservancy. At least it can start from the Beiluo River and go all the way to Guanzhong. About 50,000 hectares of arable land are added and millions of stones of grain is added. It is comparable to tea money and grain.

That is, in the tea area, all officials, powerful people, and big businessmen, don’t think about making any crooked ways.

But if the implementation continues, the state officials will further lose weight, and the three departments will lose a lot of affairs, and the officials will be negligent. There are still some below that will allow the Song Dynasty to lose redundant officials and governments to reduce pressure.

After listening, everyone was silent. If Zheng Lang hadn't said those three things just now, there would be a lot of opposition voices at this time. Fortunately, Han Qi made a strong reform first, otherwise it would be even more troublesome at this time.

Article 3: For alum specialty.

There are a total of five specialties. The salt and wine franchise has gained a lot, but Zheng Lang dared not move. In fact, the imperial court is likely to only get one-fourth or five of them, or even less than enough. However, because of its high value, few officials used and low labor costs, the profits are still quite considerable. It can bring two or three hundred profits to the court in a year, but Zheng Lang has not moved. The alum franchise is different.

The alum franchise began to be implemented in the Tang Dynasty, but the Tang Dynasty was different from the Song Dynasty. The first was labor costs, and the second was the monopoly of the money-buying system and the invasion of the interests of the court.

The production areas of alum include Hedong, Hebei, Hebei, Huainan, Jiangdong and Zhejiang Nanxi Road, etc. Although the tea leaves are not as scattered as tea, they are also very scattered. If you want to have a specialty, you must send a large number of officials to operate. The labor cost is higher than that of the Tang Dynasty. This is not counting. There is also the system of buying money and buying puns. The powerful households step by step invading, causing profits to decline. When it is low, it only costs tens of thousands of yuan a year, and when it is high, it only costs more than 300,000 yuan a year, which is normal between 150,000 yuan and 200,000 yuan. In other words, in addition to making the powerful people richer and richer, the court almost loses all the labor costs every year. Not only that, there is a specialty that must be distracted to manage and redundant the government, and also makes all the alum craftsmen live in dire straits.

The third article is to allow alum to implement the trade law. If there is a phenomenon of monopoly high prices, the shipping department will inform you to purchase at Jiangdong alum farm to balance the price of alum.

Implementing the Commercial Law will benefit the court without any harm. If you don’t have any specialization, you can impose commercial taxes. Commercial taxes will not be as huge as tea, but it is better to impose tens of thousands or tens of thousands, which is much better than losing money and not winning the hearts of the people. At the same time, reduce officials and simplify government affairs. What should the wealthy people who benefit from it?

This is the third and fourth ones, which evolved from the Shifangchang River in Wang'an.

There were many places in the Song Dynasty, which were actually profitable. However, because the minor officials were greedy and fed their own pockets, they did not pay much money to the court. On the contrary, the higher the upper part of the court income, the lower the lower part of the servants in the front of the yamen, and even the front of the yamen went bankrupt and fled, and the public and private were inseparable.

Therefore, Wang Anshi came up with a real seal of the Tang Dynasty, which means recruiting lists in downtown areas, and only two months of recruiting people to buy, the people are willing to buy, and the price is set up, and then put them in the pot. After two months, open the copper pot with the key and the price is high.

In fact, it is the contract system. Zheng Lang used it very early, but it was not Zheng Lang's inspiration. There were too many in later generations, but it was still relatively advanced in this era. In other words, the court still retained the ownership of these shops, but the management rights were given to the contractors.

Later, it expanded to wine business. Not all local wine business has good benefits. If the benefits are not great, and the officials are corrupt, these wine business will suffer losses. However, if the actual operation is properly carried out, the profits of these wine business are still considerable. Wang Anshi has been in the local area for a long time and has observed this. Later, he implemented a sealed investment method for some wine business practices that are not very good, and auctioned the production, operation and sales rights of wine business to the people through auction. The court saved a large number of officials and obtained a sum of money safely. And do not distract from the income of these wine business and the shop.

Finally, it expanded to Hedu, because Hedu requires a large number of ferrymen, or wing soldiers, serving as boatmen for passenger ferries every year, and also manages ship loss and maintenance. In fact, the imperial court still operates at a loss in this area. So Wang Anshi liberated all more than 26,000 Fangchanghe ferries across the country and auctioned them to private business. In the ninth year of Xining, he received more than 3.8 million silos of stone ferries, and paid more than 1.7 million silos of stone ferries, and had a net income of more than 2.1 million silos. Eight years later, in the seventh year of Yuanfeng, the Fangchanghe ferries nationwide had an income of more than 6 million, expenditure of 1.74 million, and a net income of nearly 4.3 million. If the previous losses were calculated, one in and out, it could reach a huge amount of 70,800 million.

After the most important implementation, political affairs were simplified.

Zheng Lang adopted it one by one and added one, which is pit mines. There are similar situations in each pit mine. The system of 370% was implemented, but the execution was not implemented in this way. The craftsman said that I only dug 100 kilograms of copper, and the minor official said that you missed the report, not only 300 kilograms. The craftsmen went bankrupt, and even if the 370% light collection system was implemented, the craftsmen had to escape, so the pit mines were scrapped. In fact, these pit mines still had mining value. Therefore, many pit mines were also identified, and some of the poor efficiency or those who fled due to the harsh skin of the minor official were auctioned one by one.

After the buyer paid the money, please don’t come and ask about it. I will pick 10,000 pounds, and you can only look at it obediently and be greedy.

This article is not as controversial as the first two, but it will reduce the chances of greed and cause some complaints.

After the implementation of the three reforms, at least 500 formal officials, 40,000 minor officials, nearly 80,000 yamen servants, and more than 100,000 craftsmen were free from the sea of ​​suffering. The court not only had government affairs relaxed, but also had to get rid of one heavy burden after another, and had to get at least 5 million yuan of profits every year. If it included pit mines, one in and one out, it was not five million, and ten million could be possible. More than 200,000 households were freed from the service, restored their personal freedom, and re-entered production. This was also a benevolent policy.

but……

Fu Bi said: "The four reforms have good intentions, which are called good governance, but have you ever thought that the court has gained very little, but the trouble is very big."

Zhao Xu and Zheng Lang looked at each other, which became the place where Gao Taotao and Zheng Lang had the most dispute.

There may be tens of millions of numbers inside and outside, but it is not easy to achieve this goal. It is estimated that the difference between in and out is 10 million. If it is actually implemented, God knows, it may be five million, or two million. However, the consequences are extremely serious. It is not officials, and the power of officials should not be filled this year. The first is minor officials. The most difficult thing to lay off is not the servants and the yamen front, but the minor officials with some real power, and they will quarrel at once. If the last three laws are implemented, a large number of minor officials will be cut off. But it is not a difficult place. The main thing is tea and alum. The business law has been thoroughly implemented, which will damage many powerful families?

If implemented and the previous two reforms are based on the foundation, the government and the government will inevitably be inverted.

It’s not just a big trouble, but a big trouble.

Zhao Xu took a deep breath before Zheng Lang proposed it. Zhao Xu didn't think so much, thinking it was good governance, and even praised it for a few words. It was not until his mother had a dispute with Zheng Lang that they were debating that Zhao Xu woke up.

The two of them had a vivid educational class for the queen mother, the prime minister, and the two of them. Finally, he realized that it was so difficult to do things.

Zheng Lang talked about the four methods, and Fu Bi also said that it would be very troublesome, so it depends on the attitude of the scholars and officials.
