"If you don't believe it, you can try it when you go back and starve yourself for three days, and you will understand a lot."
Zhu Youjian said.
"Your Majesty, the common people will try this matter after they return. Now the common people would like to ask, will your Majesty take our land back by force?" Representative No. 1 of the landlords and gentry continued to ask. ..
Land is the lifeblood of powerful landlords. For thousands of years, as long as those powerful landowners became developed, they would inevitably purchase large amounts of land.
"No, as long as you don't waste the land, or if the court builds roads and needs to use your land for business, the court will not take it back.
And even if the imperial court builds roads and needs to use it for doing things, it will still give you a certain amount of compensation. "
Zhu Youjian said.
Whatever is necessary has a bottom line.
Although only a country has a home, the country stands in front of it to ensure that the people can live in peace and contentment.
But this does not mean that the country can use this as an excuse to exploit people wantonly.
It is the country's obligation and responsibility to protect the basic interests of the people of our country and allow the world to practice etiquette.
It is the responsibility and obligation of the people to pay taxes on time and in accordance with regulations, to protect the country and not to collaborate with the enemy and betray the country.
A government that exploits the people wantonly, has no justice, and confuses right and wrong has no right to ask the people for this!
If the government exploits the people wantonly and confuses right and wrong, the people will definitely give up if there is a national crisis.
If you win the hearts of the people, you may not be able to win the world, but if you lose the hearts of the people, once the armed forces in your hands are wasted, you will definitely lose the world!
Therefore, Zhu Youjian attaches great importance to the law, because Zhu Youjian knows that the law is the only place for many people to appeal for justice. Once this road does not work, the people will either swallow their anger or do irrational behaviors.
Once these two situations occur, it will be a disaster for the country.
Nothing else, because at least those aggrieved people and their relatives, who are already fellow villagers, are deeply disappointed in the country!
"I have never planted land, so I would like to ask you, how much food can one acre of land produce in a year?"
"Reporting to your majesty, one acre of land per year, summer, wheat and autumn millet combined is 2 shi. If converted into silver taels, you can earn 2 silver coins."
"After deducting all costs, how much income can be left?"
"If a man cultivates thirty acres, the labor cost is calculated as 4 silver coins. The labor cost of 1 acre of land is 0.13 silver coins. Based on your Majesty's new grain tax of 10 per acre, the cost of one acre of land is 0.5 silver coins. Up and down. Plus 0.1 silver coins for grain.
Calculating, one acre of land can net you 1.5 silver coins a year. "
"I bet you have definitely planted the fields yourself."
After listening to the other party's explanation on the city wall, Zhu Youjian thought of some "why not mince" bricklayers in later generations. So he couldn't help but smile and said.
"Your Majesty is wise, it is true that the grassroots have never cultivated the land themselves."
"The people are the foundation of the country! People are like iron rice and steel. If you don't eat one meal, you will be hungry. If you don't eat for three days, it doesn't matter what your etiquette, justice and shame are."
If you don’t eat for 5 days, it’s up to you to take care of your sword and shield!
Our Ming Dynasty has a population of 40 million. If we cannot hold on to our own jobs, then the country will inevitably fall into chaos. "
"I believe that everyone who is doing this will not want the Ming Dynasty to fall into chaos."
Zhu You changed the topic and asked with a smile. . @ESSENTIAL\/SHUKEG·No mistake first release~~
