Chapter 313 Tax Reductions and Exemptions

After the ministers got up, the civil and military forces were divided into two factions in accordance with the rules of the left and right sides of the martial arts, sitting under Cao Cao's left and right hands, the ministers at this time were not as discussed as in later generations, only the king was sitting, and the rest of the civil and military were standing, of course, it was even more unlikely to be like the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the emperor was sitting, and the civil and military were bent over, like slaves.

Since the pre-Qin era has been passed down to the present, because the inheritance of culture has not been interrupted by the invasion of foreign barbarians, the Eastern Han Dynasty, which has been inherited from the culture in one line, is still like the pre-Qin era, whether it is the king or the civil and military are sitting upright and deliberating, just as the sage said, the king, the civil and military, sit and discuss.

"Lone led the army to the north, and it is still a few months long to calculate carefully, and Lone is not at this time, the entire Central Plains can continue to recuperate, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment, thanks to your best efforts."

In the face of Cao Cao's praise, all the civil and military forces present, as long as they are not too idiots, of course, it is impossible to answer directly in a stunned manner, the Central Plains is so stable because of themselves, but they have postponed it one after another, such as everything depends on the authority of the king, and the ministers dare not be greedy for merit and so on.

Cao Cao didn't smile too much about all kinds of prevarications of civil and military affairs, after all, even if he was a king, he couldn't forcefully pull off the self-protection coat that his subordinates had been facing the king since ancient times.

It is enough to clearly convey the consciousness that Cao Cao has never forgotten what they have done, and as for the rest, there is no need to care too much.

After condolences to the civil and military forces who stayed in Chendu, and expressed that he Cao Cao had never forgotten them, these people who stayed quietly in the rear, and in the next hour, Cao Cao was constantly asking about the six Shangshu, and from their mouths, it was clearly understood that the Central Plains region had developed clearly and definitely in the past few months.

Cao Cao, who clearly understood the development of the Central Plains region in the past few months, thought of what the six Shangshu had just said, and the population of the Central Plains, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Xuzhou all began to recover. In the past few months, or six months, the new population has increased by one-tenth of the original population, and the grain reserves in the official warehouses in various localities have gradually risen. Similarly, the tax revenue of the three states has also gradually risen because of the recovery of the population, the people gradually settled down, and the fields were cultivated.

At the same time, because of Cao Cao, the golden finger that came from later generations. Those advanced agricultural tools and irrigation methods that had not yet appeared in the original time and space gradually became a reality through the mouth of Cao Cao and the hands of the Ministry of Industry, which brought about the grain output of the three states of the Central Plains, which was much higher than that of the other ten states in the world.

The high yield of grain has brought about the gradual stability of the people's lives, and the stability of life has brought about the recovery and increase of the population, so to speak, to this day. The three states have entered a good circle.

Although compared to Chen Du, the rest of Sanzhou can not be regarded as entering the peaceful and prosperous era, but compared with the precarious days in the past, there is a day when there is no last meal, it can be said that it is much better, of course, in this way, it is inevitable, Cao Cao's reputation can be said to be more loud in the hearts of these people.

"At the beginning of the northern peace, Youzhou found the invasion of Wuhuan and Xianbei. The beacon fire is in the sky, and the bones of the people are exposed and wild, which can be described as a tragedy in the world. ”

"The minister is here!"

Thinking of the tragic situation in Youzhou. Coupled with some other considerations, Cao Cao finally made up his mind in his heart that he was not very firm, and set his eyes on the body of the frustrated person who was holding Yugui in his hand and bowed down and said: "Gu has decided to reduce the taxes of the three states of Jizhou, Bingzhou, and Qingzhou in the north, and reduce the taxes of Youzhou for three years. Within one year, the household department will not collect taxes from Qingzhou, Jizhou, and the three states, and within three years, the household department will not collect any taxes from Youzhou, which is lonely, the only one that can do, to compensate the people of Youzhou. ”

Originally, there were some officials who wanted to oppose Cao Cao's reduction and exemption of taxes in the four northern states, but after hearing this, they all fell silent all of a sudden, Cao Cao said so, if they were against it, it would seem that they were looking for death.

"The minister is on order!"

After all, the power of the household department is the national household registration, land, taxes, money and grain, fiscal revenue and expenditure, etc., and the tax reduction and exemption of the four northern states means that in the next one to three years, the household department has no way to extend its hand to the four northern states.

If it were someone else, there might inevitably be some opposition on his face at this time, but what Cao Cao saw on his face was joy and gratitude.

Cao Cao didn't think that Frustration was acting, not to mention Frustration's own character and character, just the fact that Frustration himself was from Jizhou was enough to make Cao Cao believe that on the implementation of this order, Frustration would never be in disobedience.

Leaving his gaze away from Fu Zhu, Cao Cao looked at Chen Gong and Xi Zhicai, who were sitting upright, and said, "Zhongshu Province, Shangshu Province obey orders!" ”

When Chen Gong and Xi Zhicai heard Cao Cao's words, they didn't dare to slack off, and left their seats with Yugui in their hands, came to the center of the main hall, and bowed to Cao Cao who was above and said, "The minister is here!" ”

"The policy of tax reduction and exemption, later there is a Zhongshu Province responsible for the decree of the order, spread in the world, after the edict is issued, Shangshu Province, you and the Ministry of Households will work together to implement this policy to Lonely, if within three years, Lone hears any rumors about the taxation of the four northern states, then don't blame Lone for not being emotional!"

Huaxia is a humane society, and what it brings is the governance of Huaxia society, in fact, it is a society governed by one person, which will inevitably bring all kinds of dangers that Cao Cao does not want to see, and order the household department and Shangshu Province to implement this policy together, which is not only a spur for the two departments, but also an alternative balance and supervision.

"The minister is on order!"

Chen Gong and Xi Zhicai glanced at each other, and their expressions were stern, they were not dissatisfied with Cao Cao's harsh words just now, but they were vigilant because of this, even if Cao Cao didn't say it, it was impossible for these officials, who were originally born in a poor family, to let some officials take advantage of Cao Cao's tax reduction and exemption policy to secretly collect money.

After Cao Cao's tax reduction and exemption policy was conveyed to the world, it can be said that a thousand waves sounded with one stone.

Not to mention that the people of the four northern states are in the hands of Cao Cao, those good princes, of course, can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour, while jealous that Cao Cao has reduced the taxes of the entire four northern states so generously, and on the other hand, he is full of sour words, thinking that Cao Cao is acting like this, and the day of his defeat is not far away.

Of course, whether it was the envy and envy of the princes, Cao Cao and the civil and military forces present had no way to see it at this time, at this time, they secretly sighed in their hearts Cao Cao's generosity, and at the same time were excited that they could do things under the hands of such a holy monarch, and bowed respectfully on their faces and obeyed the order.
