Chapter 861 Yao and Shun (2)(2/2)
Cai Que then told Gao Taotao that the Empress Dowager was not demoting, but letting Shen Kuo die, which was incompatible with the Song Dynasty system.
Gao Taotao immediately rebuked loudly, Liang Tao and others could denounce overseas, Cheng Xi could distribute to America, and why Shen Kuo could not be demoted to Zunyi Army.
Not only Gao Taotao, countless ministers began to siege Cai Que.
Zhu Jia has finished his trouble and can now deal with Cai Que. After all, Cai Que is the real prime minister. If he doesn't say a word, he is also the prime minister.
Cai Que sighed, "I have to know what I know. If I don't know what I know, I am not Zunyi Army, and I don't know that I will be demoted to the bad place." Moreover, the northwest border defense has been gradually built and improved, so there will be no major problems. So Cai Que was "seriously ill" and then made a request to retire.
You can't kill Cai Que, just let Cai Que go home.
In the first year of Yonghe (not the Yuanyou in history), on December 13, Cai Que was dismissed from prime minister. Cai Que escaped by chance, but Shen Kuo won a tragic fate. The court issued an edict, and Shen Kuo was forced to go to the fore. He had to reluctantly go south. He delayed until June next year before he arrived at the Zunyi Army. However, this delay came and he had not yet arrived at the Zunyi Army. Suddenly, it was reported that the court intended to send officials to change the territory and return to the country.
The transformation of land and return to the current was very beneficial to ordinary people, but the powerful people were bad. So the barbarian chiefs gathered their subordinates and killed Shen Kuo and several servants he brought in on the northern prefectures of Zunyi Army.
It had not happened yet, Cai Que fell down, and even Fan Chunren, who was sarcastic, left the court and started a carnival.
First, an edict was issued to ban the purple banknotes.
In fact, from now on, the powerful and powerful businessmen will no longer have to pay commercial taxes as before.
In fact, this edict really cannot be issued. Originally, it is an unfair practice for the powerful and wealthy businessman. The purple banknote system only levies half of the commercial tax, and Wang Ju gave some preferential policies. What else should I do?
However, it is good to be able to collect taxes. It is precisely these systems and the stimulus for business. Now the two incomes of the banking department and commercial tax have reached more than 30 million guan. If it were not for nonsense, plus the stability of Shaanxi Road and the opening of the western business road, these two incomes can exceed 40 million guan.
As for the Fangchang River Ferry system, the increase in revenue from Maritime Shipin and the help of gunpowder to pit mines, they combined, and the income reached more than 80 million jin. The remaining are the five major issues, two taxes, and some other income.
Therefore, the country's income was increased without being harsh on the people, and the court could implement various good policies, including step by step reducing the two taxes.
However, everyone ignored it, especially the powerful and powerful people in the business, praised the court's actions, and soon the commercial tax returned to its original situation, which was the old ones of 8 million trump cards and the six hundred million new ones.
Wen Yanbo and others didn't know that it would be so bad, but they knew that the commercial tax would inevitably be sharply reduced. However, they also had a way to ban the Baojia Law, the Horse Protection Law and the Exemption Law again.
The original Baojia and Horse Protection Law had many disadvantages, but after Wang Ju's improvement, their nature has changed, mainly to help the poor, so the disadvantages have been reduced. First, half of the taxes were exempted from many poor people, second, some local armed forces were added to maintain public order and prevent thieves, and third, they were motivated to raise large livestock in various places. Of course, the court must also provide some real money and silver as subsidies, or reduce their taxes.
The exemption law originally used lenient money to make up for the lenient money in poor prefectures and counties. In fact, in the end, the poor prefectures and counties did not see any subsidies. Instead, lenient money became a new move to make money. Therefore, Wang Ju successively banned lenient money and used harsh policies such as lenient money and practiced laws, and then forcibly took out millions of lunarities from the treasury to subsidize poor prefectures and counties.
If these laws are banned, the state will reduce its expenditure...
As for saving money... OK, the warehouse law, which is subject to the exemption law, has also been banned. Local quotations have also been banned. Fortunately, the shipping department has not been banned, otherwise there will be great chaos next year.
Then Wang Ju didn't care much about the original imperial examination. It seemed that Wang Anshi attached great importance to policy and theory, and it was good to light poetry and essays. Can he be a good official if he wrote good poems? Then, if he united his reading and focused on state affairs, he could select good officials. However, Mao used, if this happened, there would be no civil servant exams in the future. He directly found out the great gods at the Tianya Forum, China.com and Iron Blood Military Forum and served as officials.
It is easy to say things!
When selecting real officials, they still have to be tempered. Only by looking at their performance through these tempering processes can we find talents who are truly good at government affairs, military affairs and business.
The Fang Tianjun tax law is also gone.
In the second year of Yonghe, everyone was facing another decree to Wang Ju, the Fangchang River Ferry System. Now the only party left in the court is basically the only party left. However, when Sun Gu suggested banning the Fangchang River Ferry System, it almost caused a split within the party.
The largest income of the Song Dynasty is not the two taxes. Although it is huge in quantity, it is not as effective as the original commercial tax income. It can only be similar to the income from pit mines. It cannot be underestimated by pit mines, various gold, silver, copper, iron, tin, copper and other minerals. Together, the income is quite large, and now there are bonuses from gunpowder and even steam engines.
As the income of Maritime Corporation was divided into two parts, part of which entered the inner warehouse.
Next is the income from the Banking Department and Fangchang Hedu system.
Then there is wine and salt.
And others, including the remaining few kuo, Kapok Department, official fields, house rental, etc., but only earn a few million or hundreds of thousands of kuo.
In fact, in history, Fangchanghedu in the Song Dynasty also occupied a large part of the capital, with an annual income of almost more than 5 million yuan. However, after the hands of Wang Ju, it was further expanded. The special road construction has led to many new buildings, and gunpowder mining has also further increased the amount of Fangchanghedu, so its annual income has almost reached 13 million yuan.
Now that the state-owned property is taken back, can the clerks manage it well, or how many of them can enter the pockets of the court after their hands?
Leading by Lu Dafang, Li Qingchen, Fu Yaoyu and others firmly opposed it.
Leading by Sun Gu, Liu Zhi, Wang Yansou and others insisted on banning it.
Wang Cun, Hu Zongyu and others remained silent, but they themselves did not have much say.
There was another group of people who were silent, that was the lucky New Party, including Zhang Dun, Han Wei and other few lucky surviving.
Don't argue, big events have happened.
At the end of the first month, the banking department received dividends. In fact, the nature of the banking department is really different from the original Qingmiao Law. The banking department mainly targets merchants, and even forced Wang Ju to use the exemption law to combine it with the banking department to issue a certain limit loan to the poor people. It really couldn't afford it, so he worked for the government, and then the government deducted the money for his service and returned it to various operations. Although there were some profits, it did save many poor people's urgent needs.
Now the exemption law is gone, and the loan recipients are all merchants. In order to seek "benevolence", the court issued repeated edicts to minimize some ugly phenomena in debt coercion.
This is a signal that the court will not collect debts, so why should we pay them back? Some powerful people even borrowed these low-interest money and issued usury loans to the local area.
And, the interest rate was reduced by two cents.
So the banking department's profit this year was not enough for three million yuan.
Don't worry, a more exciting show is about to be staged.
If it is completely an imperial property, it would be fine. It is important to be a "joint venture", and most of the people who participate in the stake are real powerful and powerful, and even many relatives of the outside world.
Now that the profits have dropped so much, everyone is anxious, and then the big guys in the court forced Sun Jue to ask.
Sun Jue was extremely embarrassed, but a few days later, Sun Jue suddenly offered a plan.
The party members acted against the law and the national economy began to deteriorate rapidly, but it has not been seen yet. Although the banking department's income has dropped sharply, its credit is still good. In addition, there has been a lack of currency, and the value of each silk transaction is still higher than the denomination value.
Sun Jue said that the country could issue another 100 million silo silk for sale. In addition, cotton began to become popular, and the price of cotton cloth fell sharply. Li Man's method can be used to use silk cotton mixed with mixed silk and cotton to create new silo silk. If the main focus is on large-denomination silk for sale, the cost can be controlled at more than 30 million silo.
With enough silk payment, the banking department's income will increase.
Moreover, the silks can be paid by themselves, and even repay all the remaining national debts, so the country can easily go into battle.
Another thing Sun Jue didn't say is that it can make these stocks get a lot of dividends to fill their resentment.
Lu Dafang felt that it was inappropriate, so he asked Zhang Dun. Zhang Dun answered sleekly: "In the past, Prince An would rather have relied on issuing national debts than relying on issuing silk to make profits. It is better to write a letter to ask Prince An."
When talking about Wang Ju, everyone's expressions were unnatural and unhappy, and they couldn't wait, so they forced the release.
For a while, a large amount of cotton, raw silk and other materials had to be transported from all over the country.
Those stockholders didn't make a fuss when they heard the news.
Everyone's eyes turned to Zhang Dun, Cai Bian and other new parties again, and found a reason to take Cai Bian out of Chaozhou. Zhang Dun saw that something was wrong, and I was sick...
Then wait until you get better before dealing with you.
At this time, everyone looked around in a daze. Okay, there is no enemy anymore, so I can't deal with Lu Dafang. He is a good comrade in the end.
How uncomfortable this is. Our combat power has not been exerted yet, so we searched and found the little emperor.
