Just as Yang Xin was carrying out a series of reforms in the south, Tianqi also showed his minions.

His Majesty the Emperor finally stopped hiding.

He could not lie dormant anymore. The era of cats being addicted to love in the Academy of Sciences has ended. As an emperor, he must really take responsibility.

In the past, Yang Xin made money for him, and he would have to be self-reliant. He knew very well that if Yang Xin had not searched his house outside in recent years, he would not be able to maintain the normal finances. This war, including the war in Liaodong, almost exhausted the silver accumulated over nine thousand years. In the future, there would definitely be no windfall to replenish his small treasury. Since Yang Xin said that natural disasters were coming, there should be no falsehoods. He had to maintain hundreds of thousands of troops from the north and south, and face the next natural disasters...

No money to play!

He and Jiu Qiansui must act.

First, customs.

Guangzhou re-established tax eunuchs.

The customs in Guangzhou maintained tax surveillance and increased the tax surveillance to 500,000 taels. The Guangdong Taxation Supervision additionally controlled all the land customs in Guangdong, and the nine thousand years later forced the eunuchs of Guangdong Taxation Supervision and Eunuchs to set a minimum limit of 700,000 taels.

Death is given below 700,000 taels!

Fujian also established tax eunuchs.

Limit of 500,000.

If less than 500,000 taels are also sentenced to death.

How to collect whatever you want? In short, with the tax-inclusive silver from the two major customs of Fuzhou and Zhangzhou, the eunuchs of Fujian taxation supervision must pay 500,000 taels per year.

Second, salt tax.

Following Yang Xin's salt industry system...

This is indeed a bit difficult. There are too many people involved in the salt industry. From the vassal kings to the local gentry, it can be said that countless people are parasitized in this biggest chain of interests.

Apocalypse wants to reform.

After all, Yang Xin's salt industry system is controlled directly from the source. Whether it is official salt or private salt, it is nothing more than that of those salt fields. The transportation system requires too much manpower, but it is much easier to control the salt field. By adding taxes to the wholesale price, the salt tax revenue can soar in a very short period of time. In fact, Yang Xin calculated that the salt tax alone in Lianghuai is enough for the six soldiers who were under his command to pay military salaries.

Lianghuai Salt Industry in the past was able to provide the court with more than one million taels every year.

The salt tax is indeed very low.

But there are also various fines and confiscations for private salt investigation.

After Yang Xin took over, there was no problem in tracing the source while strictly controlling the source.

If the salt fields such as Changlu, Hedong and Sichuan can control the source together, it is estimated that there will be no pressure to make 2 million a year. But the problem is that there are too many interest groups involved, so...

So it's in a tangle.

Third, re-clear the northern land.

Especially for those under the name of the vassal kings, the fields that the vassal kings themselves expanded were illegal, and the fields of the vassal kings could only be granted land, and it would be even more exaggerated to not pay taxes for these originally illegal fields. Therefore, these fields must be cleared again. All the fields under the name of the vassal kings can be recognized, but taxes must be paid according to ordinary civilian fields.

This item is very cruel.

Everyone knows that most of the extras under the names of the vassal kings are actually strange land.

The gentry evaded taxes under the name of the vassal kings.

Now I can't continue playing.

Those vassal kings would not object, because the income from these land did not belong to him, but was only jointly organized by local officials and gentry, plus the managers of his farmlands.

It wasn't his business at all.

Moreover, this time, Qingzhang was not only the Ministry of Revenue, but also included the Jinyiwei and the Inspector. It was considered to be a joint law enforcement by three companies. Each province with a vassal king set up a special Qingzhang eunuch, with cavalry transferred from Liaodong and one province of one province. During the Qingzhang, there were troublemakers who directly joined the Iron Cavalry. Obviously, Jiu Qiansui had a thorough understanding of Yang Xin's words. If he made trouble, he could still make trouble with iron cavalry with a plate armor and a musket? The eunuchs in Wanli were lacking protection, so they were killed in various ways. Now they took the cavalry directly to see who dared.

The three items, to be precise, have caused opposition from the government and the public.

And the northern and southern Qi and the south opposed it.

Civil officials from Fujian and Guangdong strongly oppose the re-establishment of permanent tax prisons and eunuchs. The inspector-style tax prisons in the past have caused public resentment. Now, the evil policies of Wanli have been restored. Do you want to be a wise ruler of the Holy Lord?

Huguang, Jiangxi, Sichuan, and northern civil officials did not oppose Qingzhang.

After all, it is targeted at the vassal kings.

The vassal kings did not come out to object, and they had no reason to jump out, but they opposed the eunuchs, especially with their soldiers. What was they going to do? With the style of Jiu Qiansui over the years, it was obvious that this was a premeditation. The Yang family's merchants have probably been clear in various places over the years. How many gentry had sent land and property to the name of the vassal kings. Jiu Qiansui clearly wanted to lift the lid and then increase the annual income. Eunuchs and cavalry were sent to follow, and that was ready to learn Yang Xin's trick and search the house first.

This certainly won't work.

Besides, the nine thousand years old will definitely not stop at the vassal kings. It is just an introduction to the vassal king's land and property. The real purpose must be a comprehensive vassal king's land and property in the north.

Yang Xin had long told him the result of a comprehensive cleaning.

When Zhenjiang Prefecture was militarily transformed, all land was cleared. The final result was that one-quarter of the land was added. The nine thousand years later and the emperor had known the proportion of hidden fields among the people. This time, Yang Xin's results were similar during the militarily transformed locally.

The emperor clearly attacked this issue.

Let’s check the vassal kings first.

In the end, a large area of ​​incitement and land dedication must be drawn.

The vassal kings themselves cannot seize the land of the people. They either give land or say they are not enough to eat. They ask the emperor to reward part of the land, but in essence they still give land, and the rest are for offerings and sending in secret. Both of these are illegal. If the vassal kings are like this, then the emperor will check the gentry when he is angry and will be revealed at once.

Absolutely not possible.

This is related to the interests of all gentry.

Especially the vast majority of the gentry in the north are gentry in the land.

So eunuchs lead troops to clear the people and disturb the people. This cannot be done like this. Besides, this is not the eunuch's job. This is the job of the Ministry of Revenue, and it is enough to be responsible for the Ministry of Revenue.

But nine thousand years old is not stupid. The Ministry of Revenue can clear the truth!

In the end, he casually added hundreds of thousands of acres to fool him.

If not, you have to be eunuchs...

"No result has happened yet."

Mrs. Huang, who finally arrived in Nanjing, said.

"But our uncle was determined this time. No matter what, he had to do it. He gave official positions and fame and fortune to take care of scholars. But Long live the emperor, they could not make any effort. There were originally a lot of tax-free land, which was enough for them to have rich food and food, and they were too much to create hidden fields. When Taizu was a year, he could still collect more than 30 million stones of land. Now the population has increased several times, and the land has become numerous, but there are only 25 million stones left a year.

When Taizu was Taizu, who was in Northern Zhili?

In the 26th year of Hongwu, the entire northern Zhili was only 1.9 million. Now, the capital alone has a population of more than one million. In the 26th year of Hongwu, the northern Zhili land was nearly 60 million mu, and now there are less than 50 million left. The population is several times larger, and the land is still less than 10 million mu.

In the 26th year of Hongwu, Northern Zhili could still collect 1.2 million stones, but now there are still 590,000 left.

This is simply ridiculous!”

Huang Ying continued.

"Our uncle is going to rise up!"

Yang Xin said.

"He has no choice. You cut off Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Although he has given him a lot of taxes, the officials, eunuchs, nobles who have returned from Jiangsu and Zhejiang must be supported by the court. Long lively the emperor still needs to build a navy. Although the war outside the pass has almost been completed, those troops still have to be supported, and with the newly-appointed titles, all of them are asked for money and food.

Your Majesty still has to do science.

After all, I used to rely on you to search the house outside. Now that I don’t have the windfall you bring back every year, I can only find another way. All he could think of is those tricks, either adding taxes, but now there are natural disasters everywhere in the north. If you add taxes, you will rebel. He and Wansui Ye don’t want to do this, so the rest is to investigate these hidden fields. After all, 590,000 stones a year in Beizhili is indeed too low. The entire Beizhili has less than 50 million acres of land, which is obviously much smaller than the actual situation.

What's more, even if it's 50 million, the average acre of land will only be released.

Even if the average yield of five dou per mu is only one forty, the people actually complain about the heavy tax. In the end, there is too much land that does not pay taxes, and the rest is over the taxes, so naturally they complain about the heavy taxes, but the court received very little.

Our uncle is planning to gradually clear the cemetery in Northern Zhili first. After the cemetery is completed, the gentry will simply pay the grain together. Not only the gentry, but also all the fields, even the imperial villages and vassal kings. In short, except for the garrison, all the other fields are all based on the civilian fields. A mu of land is nothing more than a few liters, so that they can take advantage of loopholes. In addition, it is also said that you will take the lead here and increase the annual salary by 20% to help him, so that they can block the mouths of those gentry."

Huang Ying said.

"Yes, if he does this, I will increase the 20% of him a year."

Yang Xin said.

The nine thousand-year-old Xiongqi must be supported.

Besides, it is not worth mentioning to him. After all, he currently paid according to the standards of the past, but the land of the garrison in the past was not paid taxes. He directly sacked the garrison. This part was also based on the militia system. It is estimated that Apocalypse found that he had missed this, so it was difficult to directly ask him to make up for it. It was just in this way to put it forward in a tactful way.

"But I'm afraid that those gentry will not do it. After all, our uncle is also afraid. He has transferred Man Gui to Ji Town, and transferred Cao Wenzhao's younger brother Cao Wenyao from Liaodong, asking him to lead three thousand cavalry to station in the outer city with the deputy general of the Jing camp, and also brought Cao Wenzhao's nephew Cao Bianjiao to his side as his guard. He was also afraid that someone would jump over the wall and attack him directly."

Huang Ying said.

"I want to see who dares to object at this time? Let your father tell our uncle that our Yang family's village house in Xincheng can call it at any time, and anyone who dares to object will kill it. This kind of thing is more effective than anything else to cut off hundreds of heads."
