Chapter 40: Pediatrics!

Zhao Xu has always admired Ouyang Bian very much.

In his eyes, Ouyang Bian has always been someone else's child, but what he did not expect was that Ouyang Bian would be so evil.

At this moment, he felt a little shocked.

But the next moment, he became a little happy again.

He met such a stunning and stunning person, and now he is planning things with great concentration by his side. Isn’t this a treatment that only a wise king can receive?

As for what worries his subordinates were planning or not, Zhao Xu never thought about it because the Song Dynasty was stable.

This was not the Song Chu. The country was unstable at that time. If there were too capable subordinates, who would know if their heads would be hung on the top of the city when they woke up tomorrow.

Now the Zhao family has been in charge for a hundred years. No matter how the Zhao family won the world, they are now the well-deserved co-lord of the world.

No matter how outstanding Ouyang Bian is, it is impossible for Zhao Xu to threaten the power of the Zhao family.

Zhao Xu is a very confident young man, and this confidence has been accumulated over a hundred years of accumulation by the Zhao family.

Zhao Xu and his father Zhao Shu are different. Zhao Shu is the step-son who succeeds the throne after all, and Zhao Xu is the dignified eldest son who succeeds the throne.

If you get the right position, you will naturally be extremely confident.

Another thing that made him happy was that he could finally install his own hands.

According to Ouyang Bian's statement, it is estimated that there are many officials who have been cleaned up this time, and there are probably many vacant ones.

He can use this to win over many officials and consolidate his authority.

This is probably Ouyang Bian’s original plan.

Zhao Xu was both grateful and admired.

This friend of mine is really a monster.

Zhao Xu sighed again.

It is obviously something that everyone avoids. Zhao Zhen, Fan Zhongyan, Han Qi, Ouyang Xiu, Fu Bi and others have done something that they have not accomplished for decades.

When you arrive at Ouyang Bian, you must not only make progress thoroughly, but also gain some benefits.

Oh, no, this is just by the way, helping him consolidate his authority and expand his team, this is the real purpose!

The gap between this cannot be calculated.

Perhaps the so-called Wushuang national sage refers to people like Ji Mo.

Zhao Xu thought in his heart.

Ouyang Bian didn't know about Zhao Xu's psychological journey. He was thinking about what needed Zhao Xu's cooperation next.

"...This inspection of the fields requires a decisive suppression action to shock the world, and it is best to set up a typical example.

The so-called punch is cut so that hundreds of punches can be avoided. A classic case can make all those who are lucky enough to know the court's determination this time.

Your Majesty can ask the Imperial City Office to conduct open and secret investigations, encircle a prefecture and county, and then concentrate your efforts to break through the surface.

The participating departments should be participated by the three departments, the Imperial City Department, the Imperial Army, the local government, the Song Dynasty Weekly and other departments.

If multiple parties work together to tackle a tough problem, the people behind will become afraid.

To investigate the fields according to law is to be justified, and to adjust public opinion in the Song Dynasty weekly newspapers is to be justified;

The Imperial City Department, the Imperial Army, the local government, and the three departments work together to implement it;

In this way, the borers who hide in the fields will have no way to resist."

Ouyang Bian seemed to be saying to Zhao Xu and Zeng Gong, but it seemed to be talking to himself to clarify his thoughts.

Zhao Xu's eyes narrowed: "Do you want to use the army?"

Ouyang Bian woke up from his dream and laughed at him, "Your Majesty will not think that they will let us investigate, right?"

Zhao Xu shook his head bitterly: "How is it possible? Renzong used to investigate the land twice, and some officials in the court opposed it, outside, some farmers gathered to cause trouble, and even some inspection teams were beaten to death, and so many obstacles were stopped. "

Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "That's it."

Zeng Gong said with a tense face: "What if someone gathers to make trouble?"

This seems to be an unsolvable problem.

As long as you clear the fields, you will definitely encounter such problems.

There are not only wealthy families in hiding the fields, but also some self-cultivated farmers.

Not all farmers are simple, they are related to survival issues. They really dare to pick up hoes and fight to the death.

Most of the time, most of them have no knowledge and don’t know much about the outside world, so they are easily incited by the big landlords to make trouble, and these people are often the ones ahead.

The court beats these people and kills them, so when encountering such a situation, Renzong and others often have to stop in shame.

Ouyang Bian wanted to clear the fields, but how could he have thought about this problem?

Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "Just do a step-by-step inspection. Your Majesty can order the three departments to make a step-by-step inspection table, which can be used to identify the population of farmers, or the so-called middle-aged households, wealthy households, etc.

Check the land hidden by these people, such as the so-called middle-aged households, which allow them to own a certain amount of land. As for the data, it needs to be calculated carefully.

The previously hidden land can be cultivated by them, while the taxes are calculated based on the previous booked land, so that their interests will not be affected.

We are targeting those big landlords who hide a large amount of land, and these are the targets we want to investigate.

Before the inspection, our working team will continue to go to the countryside to explain policies to farmers, so that they must understand that our inspection of the fields this time has nothing to do with them."

Zeng Gong and Zhao Xu looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

This method is wonderful. It directly stripped out the group that had resisted the most fiercely before, and exposed the big landlords who were hiding behind them.

Seeing the admiration in their eyes, Ouyang Bian just smiled.

This is just a way to learn from personal income tax in later generations.

Inventing land and personal income tax is generally a means to control the gap between the rich and the poor and a method of tax collection.

Land annexation is essentially a widening gap between the rich and the poor. The hierarchy of personal income tax is also to control the gap between the rich and the poor, and to prevent the poor from becoming richer and richer.

So Ouyang Bian took it for granted that this method.

But this is still a bit new for people at this time.

Of course, the Song people also had the habit of classifying the levels. For example, the prefectures and counties would be divided into classes, families would be divided into households, and households would be divided into households, etc., which is also a means to control the gap between the rich and the poor.

But they did not use this method to deal with the inspection of the fields, which was really a little wrong, or they were not broad-minded enough.

At least this seems to be the case in Ouyang Bian's eyes.

As a later generation, I have seen it a lot and have flexible thinking. There is nothing that cannot be handled flexibly. This problem that has caused the Song Dynasty to be very troubled is not worth mentioning for Ouyang Bian.

Just pediatrics!
