It shows [Tian Fu] [Business Tax] [Salt Mine Tea Tax] [Miscellaneous Tax]
Land tax, simply put, is land tax. When the Ming Dynasty was founded, the land tax was about 30 taxes per person.
If an acre of land yields one stone, approximately five kilograms of grain will be handed over.
However, after the One Whip Law, there is no unified statement about taxes in various places, but they are generally three or four out of ten.
The imperial court could only receive one out of ten taxes, and the rest fell into the pockets of officials and merchants.
Therefore, there are many people who are richer than the country.
Han Xi raised the tax rate to 10 taxes and 2 taxes. After thinking about it, he thought about whether he should raise it higher and then promote potatoes, corn, etc. The grain yield would be high and he would collect it at a higher price. Then wouldn't the money from taxation go up all of a sudden?
Yes, just for a moment, Han Xi thought of a way to exploit the card loophole.
Han Xi calculated in his mind that a farmer had ten acres of land and planted potatoes entirely. Without fertilizer, the yield per mu was estimated to be around ten stones and one thousand five hundred catties.
Ten acres is one hundred taels. When one liang and one shi are harvested, it will be one hundred taels. If two are harvested, it will be twenty taels, and the people will get eighty taels.
In the commodity market, wheat costs four cents per catty, and twenty taels can be sold for fifty shi. Then it will be sold to the people at the price of four taels and one shi.
The people can earn twenty stones of wheat and ten taels of silver from ten acres of land.
Han Xi could earn seventy taels of silver, thirty stones of wheat, and one hundred stones of potatoes.
This is the rhythm to win!
Ten acres of cultivated land to grow wheat would cost more than seven dan per year.
However, this matter must be carefully considered. If this is really done, inflation will definitely occur and money will be worthless.
Moreover, the grain planting structure will also be unbalanced.
Ten acres of cultivated land can produce one hundred taels of potatoes a year.
Even if wheat costs one stone and thirty taels, the price of ten acres is only twenty-one taels.
I'm afraid not everyone will plant potatoes by then, and who will plant other plants with you? But just planting potatoes will not be enough for the cultivated land.
Therefore, the purchase price must be careful, and the purchase price cannot be randomly marked. The difference in the value of the yield per mu of several types of grain must be within double.
This will require a few accounting farmers to come out.
Thinking deeply, Han Xi walked out of the warehouse and started looking for food in the backyard. Sadly, he found that there was nothing edible.
So I could only pick up a few rocks and use them as chicken legs to chew on.
When the sky was slightly bright, Han Xi was on the top of the city, looking at the people who had gathered to resist and their families. It was a dense crowd, and there were quite a few people.
At least there are more than 3,000 people, which is almost half of the city's population.
"These are only from the city. The ones outside the city have not been captured yet." Hu Si stepped forward to report.
Are there any outside the city? Han Xi was a little confused. The population marked on the system interface was more than 16,000, and those who resisted probably accounted for less than half of the population.
If this was done across the board, I’m afraid there would be no one left in the county!
"Don't worry, everyone, we in Heifeng Village are the most moral people and only punish the leaders of thieves." Han Xi shouted loudly.
The people below couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief after hearing Han Xi's words, but there were also a dozen people who collapsed directly on the ground.
After thinking about it, Han Xi told Hu Si next to him: "Go and gather everyone in the city."
"Yes!" After receiving the order, Hu Si went down to deliver the order.
Han Xi looked at the people below and then said: "Now identify each other, those are the county magistrate's doglegs, those are the Wu family's doglegs, those people are the bullies in this county. If you tell them, you can enter." We are Black Wind Village."
After Han Xi finished shouting and waited for a moment, the audience was completely silent, and no one stepped forward to identify him.
"Since no one has identified them, let's kill everyone one at a time, starting now." Han Xi said in a cold tone.
Thousands of people in the audience suddenly lost their composure when they heard ten draws and one kill.
"I identify Yu Baotou, the magistrate's dog-legger, who specializes in collecting illegal money for the magistrate."
"Fuck your fucking shit!"
Soon, thousands of people outside the venue became noisy, and it instantly turned into a vegetable market.
Han Xi glanced at the hundreds of households around him.
Soon, hundreds of households understood the situation and went down with hundreds of people to maintain order.
After a while, more than 300 people were arrested.
These are all evildoers who oppress the people in the countryside.
Han Xi didn't ask anyone to collect any evidence. As long as fifty people identified him, he would be considered a small evil and the whole family would be forced to do coolies.
If more than a hundred people identify it, it is a great evil, and the whole family is in trouble.
Soon, all the people in the city were gathered.
"These twelve families have caused harm to the village, and now they are executed in front of their fathers and fellow villagers."
"There is also the magistrate. During his tenure, he plundered the people's wealth and amassed ill-gotten wealth. Everyone, take a look. This is the wealth that the magistrate has amassed over the years. Open it all." Hu Si shouted.
Hundreds of soldiers opened more than 400 boxes, and a pile of gold, silver and jewelry suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
The magistrate who was lying on the ground was dumbfounded. There were more than 400 boxes. How could he not know that he had so much property?
Of course the county magistrate didn't know, because there were also belongings from the Wu family and several families in the city who participated in the rebellion.
There are more than 400 boxes, with more than 30,000 taels of silver and more than 2,300 taels of gold.
Together with the rest of the silks and satins, jewelry and other items, there are at least hundreds of thousands taels of wealth.
In the county seat of Yichuan, which is deep in the mountains, this is already an astonishing wealth, and it is the tax revenue of Yichuan County for thirty years.
The people craned their necks to see the money in the box.
"Oh my god! I didn't expect the county magistrate to collect so much money. He really deserves to be killed."
"That's right, I thought he was a good county magistrate, but I didn't expect him."
"Kill the magistrate!"
"Kill the dog officer!"
Soon a crowd of people shouted loudly.
After Han Xi saw that the effect was almost the same, he threw a order of arrows from the table.
Suddenly a dozen imperial soldiers began to execute him.
"Don't kill me, no, I'm an official of the imperial court, you can't kill me."
The magistrate shouted as if mad, but it had no effect.
After getting rid of the most evil people in twelve households, Han Xi soon saw that the population of Yichuan County had dropped by more than 200 people.
This made Han Xi amazed, and at the same time he said to Hu Si: "Let these people register and register their household registrations again."
"Here, General, I'm afraid we'll need a lot of manpower for this matter." Hu Siwei didn't know what to say, and he was a spy, so he was not professional enough.
Think about it.
Han Xi went to the courtyard, summoned a hundred farmers to come out, and then made these people civil servants, and then ordered these people to start registering.
Soon a dozen sheds were erected.
People all around lined up to register and were very enthusiastic.
Because after registration, one pound of wheat per person's hair is counted.
"If you come back to register after you have already registered, once discovered, all the grain will be confiscated."
"A household can have up to twenty people. For large households with hundreds of people, it is best to divide the family property and people. Once it is discovered that people are hiding, all property will be confiscated."
Hu Si walked back and forth among a dozen sheds and recited the rules.
