Chapter 257: Absolute Majesty's Son

When Zhan Hui saw the terrain sand table, he was completely stunned. He never imagined that there were still people who could perfectly replicate the mountains and rivers and present them in front of him.

When he looked at it himself, he had to admire, Changsha Mansion, one state and eleven counties, at a glance.

Liu Chun made it much more detailed than the ordinary military sand table, every village and town, every bridge, and even every well, all of which were reflected on it.

For each county, Liu Chun gave a detailed explanation.

In fact, before the old Zhu Liguo, he attached great importance to the fields of the people under his rule, and these two were the capital and source of his strength to dominate the world, and he could not be sloppy.

In order to understand the situation, Zhu Yuanzhang asked the officials to make two booklets.

One is the Yellow Book, which records the population of the world, levies Ding Yin, and levies forced labor, all relying on this.

The other is called the fish scale album, also called the fish scale atlas, which is similar to the sand table that Liu Chun made, that is, the mountains, rivers and fields from all over the country are drawn into a atlas, and then each piece of land, according to the different owners, is numbered and marked on the atlas.

Imagine that a piece of land, with many lines in the middle, divided into small pieces and small pieces, is it very similar to fish scales? Hence the name Fish Scale Book.

The fish scale album reflects the land relationship, that is, the basis for land acquisition.

The Yellow Book and the Fish Scale Book are the foundation of the Ming Dynasty!

Sometimes I really have to admire Lao Zhu's meticulousness and delicacy, isn't what he does is the Ming version of land confirmation! If it is completely according to Lao Zhu's assumption, there will really be no problem of land annexation.

However, it is a pity that due to the limitations of technology, and also due to the perfunctory nature of the officials, the fish scale atlas is very rough, and some people can not bear the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, so they choose to flee, and some large households take the opportunity to merge the land property, plus the reduction and exemption of the non-commissioned officials, so that the entire fish scale album is constantly destroyed and impacted.

But even if it is not destroyed, compared to the sand table in front of him, the fish scale book is the difference between the second and the third dimension!

Liu Chun not only marked the land on it, but also counted the number of people, which is equivalent to combining the Yellow Book and the Fish Scale Book into one.

How many dings, how many fields, clear.

As long as the total Ding Yin of Changsha Mansion is calculated, and then evenly distributed to each mu of land, the great apportionment into the mu will be successful!

Doesn't someone think that Yoo Chun moves too slowly?

Didn't you blame him for not doing anything for half a year?

In the face of this sand table, all of them are self-defeating. Not only did he do things, but he also did them solidly and diligently. If we can make the local situation so clear, it will naturally be easy to carry out tax reform.

Thinking of this, Lao Zhu was still a little guilty.

It seems that his suspicious temper really needs to be changed, others don't say it, Liu Chun, this kid is really capable of doing things. This inch of mountains and rivers, how can it be so easy to make.

Zhu Yuanzhang could even imagine that Liu Chun led people to climb mountains and mountains, and his feet were worn out, and a layer of blood blisters was followed by a layer of ...... It's not easy, it's not easy!

Lao Zhu seems to have forgotten that during Liu Chun's longevity ceremony, didn't he make a hot air balloon for him?

This time to survey the terrain and make a sand table, I used a lot of hot air balloons to help, after all, there were Guo people who went with Liu Chun! Tao Chengdao, how did these people forget their old jobs.

Of course, even with the help of a hot air balloon, it's really hard work. Lao Zhu should be moved.

Did I fail the heroes?

After this thought sprung up, Lao Zhu was eager to suppress it.

What to do?

It's not easy, just find a scapegoat.

"Zhan Hui! Liu Chun is conscientious and conscientious, and he has worked hard to change the law, you say that he is young and frivolous, and that he is slack and lazy. That's not fair enough, isn't it? ”

What else could Zhan Hui say, he hurriedly crawled to the ground, so frightened that his soul flew away.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is ashamed, Liu Tongzhi is indeed a rare cadre, just by virtue of this, yes, this is it!" He pointed to the sand table, and he didn't know what to call it, and Lord Tianguan was forced to speak incoherently.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is talking nonsense, and the old minister is willing to ask for his own dismissal!"

After Zhan Hui finished speaking, he took off his hat and put it on the ground.

It's pretty well-behaved, and it's not easy to know how to advance and retreat.

Lao Zhu finally resisted the urge to kill, "You are a young man, a heavenly official, and in charge of the election, you should have a clear eye and a bright heart, and you should be clear about loyalty and treachery." Who knew that you were jealous of Liu Chun and spoke ill of each other for your own selfishness. Have you ever thought about it, if I listen to your slander and transfer Liu Chun back, who can implement the law change for me? This change is related to the national fortune of the Ming Dynasty, even if I want to keep you, there is no reason! ”

Zhan Hui's heart was in his throat, it's over, is he really going to die?

He lay on the ground, trembling all over, cold sweat running down his sideburns.

Lao Zhu looked down at him, paused, and then said slowly: "That's it, as you wish, go home!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhan Hui lay on the ground and kowtowed, and left in a gray manner, and when he went out of the palace gate, he was tripped and lost a front tooth. But even if he was so embarrassed, he shouted luck.

Zhan Hui is not only afraid of Liu Chun's matter, the key is that he is worried about the incident of King Tan, that is His Majesty's son, if a little wind is revealed, he will be finished.

Now if you can run, run quickly, this is called a small cane by a big cane, even Master Confucius advocates it, that's right!

Zhan Hui fled in embarrassment, packed his bags, took his family with him, and prepared to leave the capital.

Let's not talk about whether Zhan Hui can get out safely, let's talk about the blossoming of the style, and then talk about another book...... Zhao Mian!

As the head of the household department, he is in charge of the world's household registration tax, and when he sees the sand table made by Liu Chun, he is like a fool, how to look at it and how to like it!

"Wonderful, that's wonderful!"

Zhao Mian danced with his hands, and Lao Zhu chuckled, "If you want me to say, there is still a deficiency in this thing, can you guess?" ”

Zhao Mian hurriedly shook his head, "The minister is stupid, I can't guess, the minister thinks that this thing has been perfect, if the whole world is ......" Zhao Mian suddenly stopped, and suddenly realized: "The minister knows, Your Majesty is saying that this is only Changsha Mansion, right?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with a smile, "That's right, you guessed right." Go and give Liu Chun an order to let him enter Beijing, and I want to ask him how this thing is made! ”

Zhao Mian nodded, "The minister will arrange it immediately, this time Lord Liu's establishment has made a great contribution, it's not easy!" ”

"It's not easy!" Lao Zhu snorted: "I asked you to check the fish scale books in various places twenty years ago, and the result? There are many loopholes and a bunch of errors. The same thing for the imperial court, the difference is too big! You go tell the people in the household department and let them all come and see! Take a look! ”

"You have to understand, you have to understand, you have to know how to do things in the future!"

Accidentally, Liu Chun became someone else's child, and the head teacher had to show his homework book in front of the class.

At this moment, Liu Chun has not yet been proudly conscious, although he has completed the investigation of Changsha Mansion, but how to approve the new tax rate next, Liu Chun has encountered trouble.

Lao Zhu felt that the tax should be sent to the household department, and then distributed to various places, and some took off his pants and farted. He simply let the place be left as long as it was and the rest was handed over to the imperial court.

Regarding Lao Zhu's thoughts, Liu Chun just wanted to give him two words...... Idiots!

Your old man is alive, and no one dares to let the court suffer, but if your old man leaves, there will be tax deductions immediately.

In fact, since Zhu Zi, the king of Tan, arrived in Changsha to become a vassal, Changsha's field endowment has not been paid in full.

The reason is very simple, according to the regulations of the ninth year of Hongwu, a prince's annual salary is 50,000 stones, 25,000 banknotes, 40 brocades, 300 silk, 100 yarn and Luo, 500 silk, 1,000 winter and summer cloth, 2,000 taels of cotton, 200 salt, 1,000 catties of flowers, all of which are old.

Horse fodder, fifty horses per month. Its satin, the year to the craftsman, pay the palace to make its own.

Count on your fingers, how many things are there?

Fortunately, King Tan has no descendants, and he is the only one who receives the money, otherwise there will be a lot more.

The tax revenue of the Changsha government is simply not enough for the king of Tan, and it has to be withheld from other state capitals in Huguang to pay for the expenses of the king of Tan.

Speaking of which, Zhu Zi died, and the only benefit was that he saved a lot of grain, rice and cloth, so that the people could take a breath.

However, on the side of the political envoy Yamen, he hoped to hand over the Tian Fu, and the other state capitals had helped Changsha a lot, and now it was the turn of the Changsha government to help other places.

Liu Chun did not reject it, but after he walked around Changsha Mansion, he found that there were too many things to do, which gave more detailed rules to how to distribute finance and taxes.

And Yoo Chun has a suggestion.

He hoped to receive the feudal clan's fortune to the household department and let the imperial court be in charge. The prince's salary is the same, but the conditions are different from place to place.

Let Suzhou raise two or three princes, there is no problem at all, but Changsha, even one prince can't be raised.

So Liu Chun felt that it should be handed over to the head of the household, which was the best.

And Liu Chun also has a thought, after the household department takes over, the prince's Yulu should be changed to issue currency!

That's right, paper money!

Maybe it can also promote the development of the Royal Bank.

Liu Chun pretended to be a belly of advice and returned to the capital, he urgently needed Lao Zhu's support.

After being away from Beijing for half a year and coming back again, Liu Chun felt that he seemed to have matured a lot. It's just that his popularity is as bad as ever, no, it's more annoying than before.

Why didn't you even greet anyone?

What about Huang Guan?

What about Li Jinglong?

Don't forget that your sister is still in my hands!

……

Liu Chun looked around, there was indeed no one, and he had no choice but to enter the city, and when he arrived in the inner city, there was a carriage, which came over mysteriously, and the people in the car officially increased their lives.

"Come on in!"

Xu Zengshou was like a ghost, let Liu Chun in, and when Liu Chun just sat down, Xu Zengshou couldn't wait to say, "Can you tell your brother the truth?" ”

Liu Chun looked at him awkwardly, "What truth?" How much of the truth did you tell me? ”

Xu Zengshou shook his head vigorously, "I tell a little lie at most, but you are different, you deceived me so hard!" Tell me, are you the son of Your Majesty? ”

Liu Chun was almost so frightened that he fell off the carriage, "What did I get into by His Majesty, don't you know?" ”

Xu Zengshou snorted, "I know a fart!" Zhan Hui, the heavenly official of the Ministry of Officials, said a few bad things about you, and was sent to prison. Your boy is more precious than His Majesty's own son! ”
