"So facing such a situation, it fundamentally and seriously restricts the population growth of the people.
“At the same time, it is full of uncertainty and instability, giving local officials, gentry, landlords and other people room to enrich themselves.
"And the arbitrary allocation of School Disciple tax, which may even cause a large number of poor people to flee and even lead to rebellion and uprising."
"My suggestion is to spread the land into an acre!!!"
"Incorporate the capita tax into the land tax and then completely abolish the capita tax and only levy the land tax!!!"
“Because the increase or decrease in population changes greatly and frequently, and is easy to hide, it is impossible to determine real-time population changes by human power.
"But the number of acres of land has only increased rather than decreased in general. What has changed is only the owners of those acres of land!!!"
"No matter how the owners of those acres of land change back and forth, we don't need to care."
"We only need to focus on the acres of land that cannot be moved, and then use the land acres as the standard to directly levy the corresponding land tax on the "880" acres of land!!!"
Having said this, Yan Changqing paused and gave Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes a moment to digest and absorb.
After a while, Yan Changqing saw the hand suddenly raised by Chu King Zhu Zhen, and Wen Wen asked:
"His Royal Highness King Chu, do you have any questions?!"
King Zhu Zhen of Chu stood up, bowed his hands slightly and saluted, frowned and asked:
"Although local acres of land cannot be moved, what should we do if local officials, gentry, landlords and other personnel conceal or under-report the number of acres of land?!!"
"And how do we know whether local officials, gentry, landlords, etc. have concealed or underreported the number of acres of land?!!"
"Even if the imperial court counts the number of acres of land in the world, after the statistics are completed, as the people continue to cultivate [the land], the amount of land remaining in the market will be more and more." 1
"And after the statistics are completed, the number of acres of land that will be subsequently reclaimed will increase."
“Isn’t it possible that local officials, gentry, landlords, etc. may conceal the report, under-report it, or even fail to report it, thereby concealing it and enriching their own pockets?!”
"It's like the imperial court does not have enough human and material resources to be able to count the population of the people under its rule every year."
"There are so many acres of land in the world, and the imperial court also does not have enough human and material resources to count the number of acres of land in the world every year.
"Based on the imperial court's human and material resources, the probability is that the number of acres of land in the world will be counted every ten or five years.
"In other words, it is during this ten-year period, or five-year period."
"The land tax amount levied by the imperial court was all the land tax amount established ten years ago, or five years ago."
"Then during this ten-year period, or five-year period, the newly cultivated acres of land will be reclaimed."
"Those local officials, gentry, landlords and other people can hide it, thereby evading, underpaying, or underpaying land and acres taxes, and ultimately enriching their own pockets!!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting in the back, and the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes couldn't help but nodded when they heard the words of Chu King Zhu Zhen.
What Yan Changqing just said about sharing the land from one person to another has indeed solved the problem of local officials, gentry, landlords and other people evading, underpaying or underpaying the per capita tax.
However, the solution is to completely abolish the capitation tax.
To put it another way, if there is no way to solve the problem, then solve the person who caused the problem!!!
As long as the person who caused the problem is solved, the problem that was originally unsolvable will disappear with the disappearance of the person who caused the problem!!!
The same is true for Yan Chang's Nanding entering the temple.
In essence, Yan Changqing did not really solve the original problem of unstable and uncertain capitation tax collection, and local officials, gentry, landlords and other people evading, underpaying or underpaying capitation tax.
He just completely solved the capitation tax that caused these problems!!!
However, there are problems with evasion, underpayment, and underpayment, not only in the capitation tax, but also in the land and acres tax!!!
Is it possible that in order to solve the problem of evasion, underpayment, and underpayment of land and acres tax, the land and acres tax must also be abolished?!!
Another "shared income and other taxes"?!!
In this way, it becomes a ring that treats the symptoms but not the root cause.
On the podium, Yan Changqing glanced at Chu King Zhu Zhen approvingly. Being able to realize this in such a short period of time can be said to be very smart.
But fortunately, he was already prepared for such a problem.
Even if Chu King Zhu Zhen didn't ask this question, he would explain it further next.
Immediately, Yan Changqing took out a square sand table with a length of 0.5 meters and a width from under the podium [Shidian handed it to Chu King Zhu Zhen, Qi Lord Zhu Zun and others who were sitting in the first row.
"This is a sand table?!"
"The place on the sand table is Wanmin Agricultural College, right?!!"
“Such an exquisite sand table is relatively rare!!!”
"It's like reducing the huge Wanmin Agricultural College to this place!!!"
"This is much more intuitive and clear than the sand table usually used for marching and fighting!!!"
"If you were to use this kind of sand table when marching and fighting, you would be able to see the entire battlefield in front of your eyes!!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes, looked at the sand table of Wanmin Agricultural College that was assigned to them, and they were all amazed...
Even Zhu Xiongying carefully looked at the sandbox model assigned to him with great interest.
Yan Changqing, who was on the podium, was not surprised by the exclamations of Zhu Yuanzhang, Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes.
Although the sand table has existed very early in the history of Yanhuang.
Even the earliest time can be traced back to the Qin Dynasty.
For example, when Emperor Yingzheng built his mausoleum, he built a large terrain model in his mausoleum.
The model not only contains mountains, hills, cities, etc., but also uses mercury to simulate rivers and seas, and uses mechanical devices to circulate the mercury.
It can be said that this is the earliest prototype of sand table.
In the "Book of the Later Han·Biography of Ma Yuan", it is also recorded:
"In the eighth year of Jianwu of the Han Dynasty (AD 32), when Emperor Guangwu was conquering the powerful Weiqi in the Tianshui and Wudu areas, General Ma Yuan gathered rice into a valley and pointed out the situation, which made Emperor Guangwu immediately think, "The prisoners are in my eyes." The feeling is that this is the earliest sand table operation. "
Later in the history of Yan and Huang, sand tables were often used for battlefield military exercises.
For example, when Zhu Yuanzhang was fighting against other princes of the world at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, he also made a world sandbox in order to better grasp the overall situation of the world.
But how can I put it, in this era, some sand tables are very crude.
There is no emphasis on proportion. At most, you can pile up a small earthen wall to serve as a city, and a small mound to serve as a mountain peak. Then insert a small flagpole and mark what it represents, and that's it.
The sandbox model that Yan Changqing is taking out now is basically exactly the same as the real estate models in the 5.4 sales offices in his previous life. At most, it cannot be charged and illuminated!!!
But in terms of appearance, it is basically the same as the properties in the sales offices of the previous life!!!
Making such a sandbox model is not difficult for craftsmen of this era.
In other words, the only difficulty lies in the concept of equal proportions, which is a bit difficult for them to understand.
In fact, there is no difficulty in making it. They have even made this type of architectural model themselves, but at most they are not as meticulous as Yan Changqing requires.
However, after the craftsmen understand the concept of equal proportions mentioned by Yan Changqing, there will be basically no problem in making them.
