Chapter 1026: Changes in Jingyang

The southeast shape wins, the three Wu metropolises, and Qiantang has been prosperous since ancient times. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info smoke willow painting bridge, wind curtain green curtain, uneven 100,000 households. The clouds and trees surround the embankment sand, the angry waves roll frost and snow, and the moat is endless. The city is a jewel, the household is profitable, and the competition is luxurious.

Heavy lakes are stacked on top of each other. There are three autumn laurels and ten miles of lotus. Qiang tube clear, Lingge flooded the night, frolicking and fishing lotus baby. Thousands of horsemen have high teeth. Listen to the flute and drum while drunk, and enjoy the smoke. The picture of the different day will be good, and return to Fengchi Kua.

β€”β€”This is a phrase that describes the grand scenery of Qiantang. Liu Sanchang fills in this word, which is the wealth and beauty of Hangzhou. The natural scenery of Hangzhou and the prosperity of the city are written, and the beauty of the West Lake and the peace of the people are written. In the original history, a hundred years after Liu Yong, the lord of the Jin State saw this word and admired the prosperity in the word, so he led 100,000 troops to the south, trying to attack the Southern Song Dynasty and seize this place.

If you say this poem, it is not Jingyang, and it is not written in the Tang Dynasty, but Xia Hongsheng walked in the streets and alleys of Jingyang, and the verses in this poem kept appearing in his mind anyway.

Let's look at the weeping willows on the side of the road, blowing with the wind, a line along the road, why not as if the wind curtain green curtain?

How come the traders and pedestrians under this willow curtain are not uneven between 100,000 households?

Almost all sides of the road have become shops, pedestrians shuttle back and forth, there are shouting and shouting, there is the sound of bargaining, the things in the shops are extremely rich, all kinds of things, dazzling, is it not the pearl of the city, the household is full of Luoqi?

"It's really un......expected," Li Shimin stood on the street in Jingyang, shook his head, and said.

Xia Hongsheng was about to answer, but he heard Li Shimin continue: "When I was driving in person, I passed by Jingyang, and this place is just an ordinary Jingyang. Even if it is better than other Gyeonggi prefectures, it is not surprising. It's only been more than a year, and now, I can't recognize that this is Jingyang! If you have never been here, you may think that you have arrived in Chang'an. ”

"The landlord's house is a large family, carved fences and jade masonry, rising to fight small people, it is good to have earthen houses to live in, and some more, like Weichen when he was originally in Luanzhou, he could have a few thatched houses and a fixed place. No matter how bad it is, he didn't even have a place to live, so he slept for the night at the root of the wall under the tree. To put it bluntly, these differences are not just one word. Xia Hongsheng said to Li Shimin: "Money." ”

"Money ......" Li Shimin looked around, and muttered again: "In the words of Yang County's order yesterday, there was a sentence that made me deeply impressed. She said, 'The greater the number, the greater the number that can be put at the disposal of the county government.' In accordance with the principle of 'taking from the people and using it for the people' in the new tax law, the county government has increased its investment in the construction of infrastructure and public facilities in Jingyang County, and has used more disposable quota in matters closely related to the people...... There's a lot of truth in that. ”

Well, this passage is enough to violate the harmony when it comes out of Yang County's mouth, and it is even more strange when it comes out of Li Shimin's mouth.

However, these words were brought out by Xia Hongsheng, although he felt strange at the moment, but for himself, it was easier to explain.

Xia Hongsheng understood what Li Shimin meant, so he looked left and right, saw the tea stall next to him, and said: "Father-in-law, please move, let's sit down, my son-in-law will invite you to drink a bowl of tea, and let my son-in-law talk carefully for you." ”

"It's okay, after a long while, my mouth is also a little dry." Li Shimin nodded, went over to the tea stall and sat down.

Cha Xiaoer put on the tea, put a few plates of preserved fruits, and moved them away.

Xia Hongsheng then explained to Li Shimin: "Father-in-law, in fact, this whole circle is a cycle. The principle of the new tax law is to take from the people and use it for the people. Since the tax is received from the people, it is natural that it should also be used by the people. This is not to say that it is unrealistic and impossible for all the taxes collected to be distributed to the people. Rather, the tax collected by the imperial court was used for various policies beneficial to the people of the imperial court, and ultimately the people benefited. ”

"I know that." Li Shimin nodded: "Take it from the people, use it for the people." These eight words are good! Last night, I also thought that after returning to Chang'an, I would write these eight words with my own hands, one to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the other to hang in my bedroom, always reminding. ”

"Father-in-law is really a holy monarch!" Xia Hongsheng slapped a sycophant, and then continued: "The people pay taxes, and the local government collects the taxes and pays them to the imperial treasury according to the established regulations, and he also keeps a part of it for ordinary local policy expenditures. The more it collects, the more it can be kept and used. With money in hand, it is much more convenient to do whatever you want. The county government will have a number of projects to benefit the people. These projects are designed to benefit the people. It's like the road in Jingyang County. Nowadays, whether it is Jingyang County or the villages in Jingyang County, there are cement roads connecting them. It is much more convenient for the people, whether it is to move around, live, or go to the city to do business. This is the benefit that money is spent on the people and brings to the people. This is called using it for the people. ”

"It's not just the road. There are also shops and parks on both sides of the street...... And so on, all of these can make people's living standards better. The county government spent the money on building these things, which seemed to be spent in vain, but in fact it was not spent in vain. First of all, these things make the imperial court and the county government more authoritative in the eyes of the people, and more popular and supportive. That alone is worth it. In addition, roads, shops, and parks were repaired...... These projects to benefit the people should be hired, so that the people can come to work and earn some extra money in addition to farming. When the people have a lot of money in their hands, they naturally want to buy a little of this, buy some of that, and spend it. The merchant took the money, sold the goods, and went back to business. The roads are good, there are more shops, the merchants are more convenient for business, there are more goods, and the people have more money. No one can lose the tax collected and use it like this, round by circle, but everyone can meet their needs. ”

"The people pay taxes, and the county government uses the taxes to hire the people and build projects that benefit the people. The county government has repaired the project and won the hearts of the people. The people have what benefits them, and they get convenience and money. If the people have a little more money, they will have some expenses. The people spend, and the merchants made money. The people spend, the businessmen make money, and the county government has taxes. Li Shimin muttered to himself: "This cycle goes on and on, and it goes on and on." ”

"Yes, exactly!" Xia Hongsheng said: "Compared with the taxes paid, the value of the people in exchange is far higher than the value they pay, so the people actively support the new law." For example, if there is a business, teaching the son-in-law to hand over a cooking cake every year, in exchange for a golden cake, then of course the son-in-law will respond vigorously, let alone oppose - not only will he not object, but he is also afraid that others will oppose it. Don't say it's a cookcake, even if you give him ten more cookcakes, your son-in-law will definitely support it! ”
