After hearing these detailed regulations, Wang Yu's face also showed excitement, and he continued to ask: "The light corvee and thin tax system must be to reduce the corvee and reduce taxes. I wonder how Yi Wu drafted the copy?"
Wang Yu opened another copy while preparing to listen to Guan Zhong's next performance.
Guan Zhong replied: "Corvees and taxes are the source of a country's economy. Without corvee, there is no army to defend the country, no defensive borders, no suppression of violent mobs, and large-scale projects such as building cities, roads, and palaces are inseparable. Corvee labor, and taxation is the basis. By collecting taxes, officials and soldiers can be paid. All mobilization of the entire country is inseparable from treasury expenditures, and this taxation is the main source."
"The lord can issue a decree and stipulate that men between the ages of 20 and 40 are the age for corvee service. Each man must serve in the county or county for one month every year to become a soldier. Those who serve in person are called jiangeng. Those who do not serve are called jiangeng. Those who paid 2,000 yuan for military service were called Gengfu. Each person served in the army for two years in his life. He served in the local area and was called a regular soldier. He who guarded the capital or the frontier for one year was called a garrison soldier. Strictly control local excessive levies and private taxation. All All regions are unified.”
Guan Zhong wasted no time and ordered to "open and close bridges, open mountains and rivers, and ban mountains and rivers" on taxation methods and terms, unify currency, encourage farming, relax restrictions on industry and commerce, etc., creating more conditions for the development of private industry and commerce, and proposed "circulation flow" In the world, everything that can be traded is accessible and you can get whatever you want."
In this way, it will not only revitalize industry and commerce, but also indirectly promote the development of agriculture.
Wang Yu's eyes became brighter and brighter as he listened, thinking that Guan Zhongzhen was an economic and political wizard, and he was worthy of being famous throughout the ages. These insights were really unfounded. His evaluation in history could be said to be almost the highest among civil servants. People also compare themselves to wind instruments.
With his assistance, the seven counties in Hebei Province will be able to stabilize as quickly as possible. The next step is for him to develop the military in a drastic way after the governance is stabilized!
"My lord, there is one more thing. Your Majesty sent more than ten officials to Hebei. I don't know..." Yao Guangxiao asked about another matter.
Huangfu Mingze was not stupid. After Wang Yu defeated the seven counties of Hebei Province, he really didn't care at all. How could he not add sand?
Nowadays, Wang Yu's thoughts are becoming more and more obvious, and Huangfu Mingze is becoming more and more vigilant and defensive about Wang Yu! How could he allow Wang Yu to really take the seven counties of Hebei Province into his own hands?
At this stage, it is just because everyone still needs each other that we are deliberately ignoring some problems! Just like Huangfu Mingze, he still needs Tianshi Dao and the Three Kings at this stage.
In fact, just as Wang Yu reached out to the Yannan New Army, Huangfu Mingze also wanted to reach out to Hebei Road. Not only these dozen officials, but Lan Yu's 10,000 Liangshan Army, which was originally stationed in Hebei Province, has also entered Chifeng Pass at this time.
Although Chifeng Pass is not the only important road between Hebei and Yannan, it is the most important road pass.
"Let them become deaf and blind, and feed them well first!" Wang Yu said calmly.
After all, Huangfu Mingze is still the emperor in name only. These people must not be killed.
Killing, although this is the most direct way to solve the problem, is never the best way. Relying on killing people to solve problems is only a superficial solution, and it will inevitably leave countless disasters behind.
How can the mouth of the world be blocked by murder? Is there some lunatic who thinks he can kill everyone in the world?
Since you can't kill them, you can raise them like pigs and lure them with wine and sex to make them happy and stop thinking about Shu. Or you can blind their ears and eyes, put them under house arrest in a different way, or even make them one of your own. In short, as long as you let these people As long as it doesn't affect them.
From governance to military affairs, and from military affairs to governance, this sequence lasted for more than two hours. It was already past noon when the meeting ended. Wang Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt like "the moment he entered the Hou family, he was deeply moved." Like the sea, Xiao Lang is a stranger from now on."
This matter of governance is much more tiring than fighting!
"System, start summoning! Use 600 summoning points to conduct 4 heaven-level political summons, and then use random charm talent summoning cards to summon!"
Although Wang Yu has many talents, he is extremely short of political talents.
Or to be more precise, what Wang Yu lacks is not high-end political talents. Even excluding Xiao He and Gao Qiao who stayed in Yannan Dao and a series of battles headed by Huangfu Mingze, Wang Yu was still surrounded by Guan Zhong and Zhuge Liang, two top political talents.
However, it is not enough to have top talents. Talents at all stages below are also needed. Moreover, just like a pyramid-shaped structure, the further you go down, the more talents are needed at that stage.
Top talents should be the ones responsible for managing the next stages, so that a complete management structure can be formed.
If there are only top talents, without grassroots talents and middle talents to cooperate with them, if they really have to do everything, even if they are exhausted, it will not be enough.
Just like a commander-in-chief, they cannot directly command an army of hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands. An excellent commander commands the generals below, and the generals command the junior officers and even soldiers below.
Therefore, Wang Yu actually lacks political talents, especially those who can be transferred to the county and county levels.
The original officials of these seven counties may not have surrendered, but to be honest, Wang Yu still can't trust them. Wang Yu can put them in a false position, but the key positions of county guards are still absolutely controlled by his own people. Better in hand.
Of course, Wang Yu will not be able to do this in the future, but now he has just established a piece of territory that belongs to him, and his career has just started. At least in other aspects, Wang Yu needs to be more cautious.
As for Guan Zhong and Zhuge Liang, it would be a waste to decentralize them to the county guard, so it would be better to let them take charge of the overall situation. Moreover, even if Wang Yu is willing to send them down, there are not enough of them in seven counties!
In fact, summoning heaven-level talents to serve as county guards is actually an act of overqualifying people for their talents.
However, today they are a county guard, and in the future, they will be Wang Yu's state governor. In fact, they will become Wang Yu's central ministers in the future.
Wang Yu always cultivates a group of confidants of civil servants, and the power of generals alone is far from enough. So, this group should be Wang Yu's most important group!
"Ding, first time..."
