Chapter 169: The Status Quo of the Hongyun Dynasty
During this year, the Hongyun Dynasty came completely according to Chen Hong's idea. The Shadow Guards were also dispatched to use heavy sanctions in troubled times. As long as they did not follow his rules, they would be wiped out. All the bandits between the four countries were handed over to the army. On the one hand, they could train troops, and on the other hand, they could let the people know their existence and gather their hearts to the people. This would be very helpful to the emerging dynasty.
This is true. Such actions are needed to further win over the people in the country. Chen Hong understood this very well. Although it is not necessary for a strong man like him, since he already wants to do this career, he cannot do it well. You must know which founding emperor in China is not an emperor of a generation, and his influence is far-reaching. He will definitely not be bad.
After all the measures were taken, not only did agriculture greatly alleviate, but the increase in agriculture was also continuously strengthened, but the tax revenue was constantly decreasing. Now, as long as the tax grain was paid, it was only 15%, and those farmers could get eight-story five, and there was no other tax revenue. In this way, these farmers obviously had a much better life and became richer.
Of course, the dynasty can give priority to the purchase of excess grain and notify them to purchase at market prices, which will not allow farmers to lose money. This will greatly reduce the survival of farmers. As long as there is land to plant, they can become rich. Moreover, the land obtained for military merits does not require taxes, which also allows them to have a good living environment and make them cherish it.
This is thanks to the wealth that was robbed before, especially those merchants who were unkind and bandits, who were rich and unkind, and the wealth was increasing to support such rules and laws, otherwise it might not be possible. In addition to this, the tax on merchants has gradually increased, and it has risen to the third level of profit. Even so, merchants are still coming in a constant stream.
Not only because there are many products here, but the most important thing is safety. Yes, merchants attach great importance to their own safety. As long as there is a guarantee, they will not care about where they will go. You should know that in the past, no matter whether they are bandits or the like, they will come in a constant stream, and they will have to pay various travel fees, but they will not come anyway.
Now, it is just three layers of profit, very few, and there are still seven layers to make for them. It is really a big deal, so how can we not come? As business becomes more and more prosperous, their status is not degraded in the Hongyuan Dynasty. The law stipulates that as long as they are legal merchants, the Hongyun Dynasty will protect it, of course, within the Hongyun Dynasty.
With this, the interests of merchants are guaranteed, and their status gradually increases. At least they need a lot of drafts than other countries. You should know that in many countries, if something really happens, these merchants are the best way to do things with their wealth. This is what other countries do. There is no guarantee, but they have to make choices in order to survive.
The emergence of the Hongyun Dynasty gave many merchants a glimmer of hope. Under such clear regulations, they naturally could not occupy their wealth at will. Otherwise, the country would not be far from being destroyed, and these high-level rulers would not want to.
Under the prosperous business, the rapid economic recovery driven by the economy has been steadily improved in less than half a year. For these regular merchants, the country is indeed protecting them. As long as they pay taxes as usual, everything is fine. However, for those who still have illegal merchants, they will not need guardians, and those merchants hate them very much and will not care about their life and death.
After all, there are not many such environments. It is really good to settle down here. Even if you go out to do business and are embezzled by other countries, at most, this part of the interests will disappear and will not endanger the roots. Their foundation is in the Hongyun Dynasty. As long as people are not dead, everything can be started over. Unlike in those countries, once something happens, the entire family will be destroyed.
In addition to the rapid prosperity of business, the imperial capital was built quickly, not only with people supervising on the surface, but also with the shadow guards in secret investigation. You should know that many things need to be carefully considered. If something happens, the emperor is not just a abandoned city. What is its use? The enemy knows how to come in. Do they still need such a city to be a capital? Is it a little more careful?
As the creator of the new imperial capital, Zhang De naturally put his heart into practice. As long as something wrong occurs, people will be transformed immediately and there will be no difference. This is his first task. How can he not be more careful? It is really important.
As for Lin Shen, he also helped him, sharing the task to a large extent, so that Zhang De could handle matters more. It was very difficult. In this way, the imperial capital would be built in an orderly manner and no mistakes would occur.
Because of the huge size of the new imperial capital, construction takes time. Even if many civilians join in, it still takes a long time, and it will take at least about a year to complete. Of course, Chen Hong would not care, but especially for those civilians who can take the initiative to participate, he treats them very favorably. Not only does they have free meals, but also some wages, which will not be made in vain.
With all this, the people's hearts have not collapsed at all, only infinite gathering, which is too different from those big forces' thinking. The current Hongyun Dynasty has become different. It is no longer the countries before, and the people's hearts have greatly increased.
In terms of the army, all the city lords assigned to the city are vigorously recruiting troops. Of course, the rules are still required. Those with poor physical condition and old and weak are only those who are strong. Of course, the premise is to be voluntary and not to force them. Moreover, now is a time when stability is needed, so there is no forced situation, otherwise the people's hearts will disappear.
At the beginning, not many people were willing to participate, not only because of instinctive vigilance, but also because of the past outsiders, they were indeed very scared, knowing that time passed little by little, and there were many bandits robbers outside the city. Under the oppression of this situation, the number of people joining the army increased, gradually forming war zones to encircle and suppress their respective bandits.
After the results came out, many civilians or villagers outside the city felt the existence of security. They began to recognize the existence of the Hongyun Dynasty and gradually integrated themselves into it. Soon they began to discover that the military pay was very abundant. Even ordinary soldiers had two taels of silver per month, which was more than their family, and they had to make people feel endless joy.
So more and more people joined the army, but those who could choose began to hide. The city lords all breathed a sigh of relief. They knew that the emperor's heart was really unable to achieve results, the consequences would be serious. Not only them, but also their own family, so they naturally did not want these things to happen or even accidents, and they had to praise His Majesty the emperor's wisdom.
The army of a city may be only tens of thousands, relatively small, but once these cities are combined, it will be bigger. In terms of big cities, each country will not have less than ten, and there are more cities. However, under the development of the army, once it is really aggregated, the total number will definitely exceed one million troops, and the combat effectiveness can be guaranteed. It can be seen that under the battle and training this year, it has been considered a strong army, and there is no problem in self-protection.
What's more, when the training of these urban troops is almost done, someone will send people to collect excellent sergeants to expand the central army and directly under the command of His Majesty the Emperor. In this way, the central army will become stronger and stronger, and the local area will be the best training ground. The central government will naturally have many advantages over the local area, and its resources will be greatly increased, for use by the army, and will naturally be highly praised by the people.
In addition to the Central Army directly under the jurisdiction, there are also three major defense areas on the border, led by the original nine generals, and at the same time, the first level to the outside world. The Three Kingdoms have become urban areas one by one, so the defense areas are naturally included.
Because of this, the army can continuously add fresh blood. As for those sergeants who have served full service, they can go home. Of course, there are still twenty taels of subsidies for going home, which is enough for them to find things to do within a period of time. It is also a kind of compensation. At least other countries do not have such an example. It is really the first case. It has to make those sergeants feel excited and happy.
Both the soldiers themselves and their families like it very much. Only such an army can participate in the interests, guarantee the interests of the vast majority of people, and be more cohesive in defending the country, and it is no longer just a glorious one. These retired soldiers are not without the chance to come back. As long as the war comes, they may be recruited, and there will be a chance of military merit, and they may be promoted.
Of course, this is only accidental. For the current Hongyun Dynasty, it is still relatively early. There will be no retirement situation. There will only be a growing number of soldiers. After all, it is still unstable for both domestic and foreign countries. A strong army is needed to suppress it and show their strength to have a better chance of development. As long as there is another year, the new imperial capital will be completed, you will basically not be afraid. At that time, the Hongyun Dynasty will be stronger. How could there be something wrong with this peerless strong suppressor?
The Shadow Guard has also developed further, with a sharp increase in number and a continuous increase in strength. After a year, the chief instructor Ah Hui has now reached the fusion stage, and further the tribulation stage is the Tribulation stage. There are many other divine division stages, and there are more in the Nascent Soul stage. At least there are also the Golden Pill stage during the Chinese New Year, and the power is indeed much larger.
Relax yourself when you are nervous, comfort yourself when you are worried, and don’t forget to bless yourself when you are happy.
