Chapter 765: The Law of Buying Back Fields

At this time, Li Yuanming habitually glanced at the big Situ over there, he didn't believe that the big Situ couldn't hear this Chu Xian's 'ignorance', the government paid to buy back the land, what a stupid idea, even if the big Situ who supported Chu Xian heard it, he would be pale with anger.

It's just that to Li Yuanming's surprise, Da Situ's expression didn't change at all, as if he was not moved at all.

"What's going on?" Li Yuanming felt a little uncomfortable.

In the current situation, Chu Xian is simply seeking his own death, engaging in such a big battle, saying such a bunch of words, and finally coming up with a method that is so impossible to implement and implement, this is simply incompetent, and it is impossible for him to be unresponsive if he is a big Situ.

Unless, the other party still has something to rely on.

Thinking of this, the uneasiness in Li Yuanming's heart became more and more intense, and then he thought about it, no matter how stupid Chu Xian was, it was impossible for him to deliberately propose it knowing that this method would not work.

Is Chu Xian the kind of person who acts recklessly?

Li Yuanming shook his head, absolutely not, Chu Xian is very shrewd, and he is even more 'scheming', not to mention anything else, compared with Liu Jiwen and Chu Xian, Liu Jiwen is much inferior.

So how could Chu Xian make a mistake that even Liu Jiwen wouldn't make?

"Could it be that this Chu Xian really has a way to buy back the land? How is this possible?" Li Yuanming felt that it was impossible no matter how he thought about it, and with his intelligence, he still couldn't think of a solution.

In order to break the private ownership of land and maintain stability, it is impossible to use force, and it is impossible for large landlords in various localities to hand over their ancestral fields in vain, so buying them with gold and silver is the most basic solution.

So where did the silver come from?

Although the Holy Dynasty was rich, it had a vast land and a large number of people, and its expenses were also quite huge, so it was impossible for the household to get so much gold and silver from the people who had no land? This was simply impossible, they could not take out so much silver at all, and even if they could, it would be a drop in the bucket and would not solve any problems.

So that's the biggest obstacle and an unsolvable dead end.

Many of the sages of the Holy Dynasty had not thought of this method before, but most of them were blocked at this step and could not be carried on, after all, the current land volume of the Holy Dynasty is too large, even if it is distributed, and the systems are different in different places, there will be big problems.

Another point is that even if there is money, those people who have a large amount of real estate do not sell their land, what can the government do?

These are all difficult problems to solve.

These years have only flashed in Li Yuanming's mind, and at this time, Chu Xian began to respond.

"It is true that Shang Shu has worried about your lordship, but please don't worry about it, because Chu Xian already has a way to deal with it. ”

Chu Xian looked confident.

The curiosity of the officials at this time was also suspended to the limit, obviously, almost all the officials were curious, what kind of way Chu Xian could solve this almost dead problem.

Li Yuanming's expression remained unchanged, and he asked, "Then you talk about it, and the official listens to you." ”

If it weren't for Chu Xian's official position being too high and he was a member of the First Auxiliary Pavilion, I am afraid that he would have already opened his mouth to urge.

Chu Xian said at this time: "This method is also simple, the Holy Dynasty and the local government, there is no need to really spend real money, just issue gold and silver letters, and you can solve the urgent need." ”

The hundred officials were stunned, even the first auxiliary pavilion-level immortal officials, and most of them were dumbfounded, not knowing what the so-called gold and silver stamps were.

Chu Xian then began to explain: "Gold and silver letters, can be regarded as the government to borrow silver from the people, Chu has a detailed implementation of the bill, the content listed is detailed, with a period of one to three years, the people can buy, at present, the silver interest given by the silver deposit in the state is almost one point, our official silver village is the same, then the gold and silver letter can be increased a little, at present, it is most appropriate to set one point and two, so much more, the people and those landlords have nothing to say, and they are profitable. ”

After Chu Xian's explanation, everyone understood it.

To put it bluntly, the government borrows silver from the people, buys the land of the common people and landlords, and then distributes it to the landless people, collects rent, collects tax silver, and so on and so on.

Those who understand will immediately see that the ingenuity of this method is simply wonderful and superb.

Some people have outdated concepts and feel that it is inappropriate, and even worse, they directly shake their heads and say: "Ridiculous, how can the government deign to borrow money from the people, it is simply ridiculous." ”

All of a sudden, hundreds of officials in the court began to discuss, saying their own views and opinions.

Chu Xian is not in a hurry, now that the things that should be thrown out have been thrown out, what happens next depends on whether he can convince the hundred officials to promote this reform bill.

You must know that Chu Xian put forward this idea, it was not just an idea, it was carefully calculated by Chu Xian, for this reason, Chu Xian has summoned dozens of officials who are good at counting in the household department, and he has calculated many times. Questions such as whether he will not be able to repay the silver by then, Chu Xian has already had a way to deal with it.

Now, Chu Xian is waiting for someone to bring it up.

Over there, Li Yuanming pondered, his heart full of shock.

It was a real shock.

Let's not talk about whether Chu Xian's method can succeed in the end, let's just say that this idea is eye-catching, and if you think about it carefully, this may be the best and only way.

"How did this Chu Xian come up with such a wonderful idea? Li Yuanming secretly said in his heart, he finally understood why Da Situ was so calm.

Because of this method, Chu Xian must have told Da Situ early on.

This Chu Xian is also a ghost, when he reported to himself, he didn't mention a word, obviously, the other party knew that he might hinder and oppose, so he kept a hand.

Up to now, the direction of the court meeting has changed a little, and Li Yuanming has to admit in his heart that Chu Xian's method of change can really be tried.

But I still can't pass it.

This can be regarded as an insistence of his own, Li Yuanming is unwilling to 'succumb' to a little Chu Xian like this, and he is even more unwilling to admit that his previous decades of governance philosophy are 'wrong'.

If that's the case, I'm afraid that my footsteps in the Shoufu Pavilion, in the official career, and in the officialdom will have to stop.

He is still only a second-grade Shangshu Ling, and he still wants to go further, naturally, he hopes to be able to ascend to the throne in the end, become a first-grade immortal official, and sit in the position of the first seat of the first auxiliary pavilion.

If the political ideas and ideas he has been adhering to are wrong, it is conceivable that he can continue to sit in this position of Shang Shuling.

Therefore, for the sake of oneself, it is impossible to 'admit defeat'.

"Chu Xian, your method seems to be a fantastic idea, but if you think about it carefully, you will know that it won't work at all. Li Yuanming couldn't take care of it so much at this time, Chu Xian's eloquence was very high, and others couldn't deal with it, so they could only deal with it themselves.

Over there, Chu Xian hurriedly said respectfully: "Chu Xian listens to me." ”

Li Yuanming nodded, and said seriously: "It's not that the government deigns to borrow money from the people and loses face, this, it's nothing, the problem is that if there is not so much gold and silver at that time, and the people come to exchange the silver, they can't give it, then have you ever thought about what the consequences will be, that will be dishonest to the people, Chu Xian, you can't tear down the east wall to make up the west wall when you do things, this point, you are not doing it properly." ”

The officials all nodded when they heard this, and what Li Yuanming said was right, although borrowing money from the people can promote land change, but the borrowed money must be repaid after all.

When the time comes, it will not be able to do so, and it is a trivial matter to lose trust with the people, and I am afraid that the world will be in chaos and the people's will will deviate.

If this happens, no one can afford to take the responsibility.

Li Yuanming made such an accusation, in his opinion, it is absolutely possible to hit every shot, after all, this kind of thing, who can say it clearly, let alone predict it, and it is impossible for the Shoufu Pavilion to pass this kind of 'gambling' general reform bill.

Li Yuanming felt that at this point, although Chu Xian was good enough, he won after all.

Unexpectedly, with a wave of Chu Xian's big sleeves, countless papers floated out and floated in the sky of the court, looking like stars.

Listen to what Chu Xian said: "My lords, this is the result of Chu Xian's three months, counting together with the 37 officials of the household department, including the increase in tax and silver after the implementation of the reform bill, the people have silver in their hands, and the silver in the hands of those large landlords is piled up. Business and other industries, the world is prosperous, the rise of various industries, the government tax silver can be increased by seventy, or even doubled, without a year, at most ten months, you can recover seventy percent of the gold and silver for exchange, even if there are some errors, even take a step back, the recovery of gold and silver is not enough, but only need to allocate some more official silver two, enough to deal with, although the belt to tighten a period of life, but for the long run, it is beneficial and harmless. In this way, supplemented by an increase in the tax on 100 fields, a forced reduction in the amount of money from private leased fields, and strict control, those large landlords will not be able to sell their land if they want to, and human nature will seek profit, but if it is unprofitable, or even become a burden, no matter who they are, they will follow the new land system. ”

Chu Xuan finished speaking in one breath, and after that, the court meeting was actually quiet, and when he looked at it again, they were all dumbfounded.

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

The first person to speak was actually Tobe Shangshu.

This Hubu Shangshu has been pressed by Shangshu Ling Li Yuanming, and he has not dared to express his position since the beginning of this court meeting, and finally can't help but speak at this moment.

In charge of the household department, he naturally has a deep understanding of the affairs that Chu Xian said, and it can be said that he is the first person who can understand Chu Xian's intentions and the first person who can see how superb Chu Xian's trick is.

Chu Xian's method almost perfectly solves all the previous problems, solves the biggest obstacles and troubles, and the remaining small problems only need to be implemented properly, and they will not become problems. The most important thing is that Chu Xian's method is really feasible, and for Hubu Shangshu, there is a feeling of enlightenment and sudden opening, so he can't help but praise it.
