6. 30,000 middle-class households
Money and cloth were rewarded to the Shenwei Army in the capital and the Shence Army in the outer town. The soldiers quickly took it to Chang'an and the surrounding markets to spend. The money was transferred in the capital and there was no loss of leaving the country. The prices in Chang'an became more and more stable. The emperor felt that the clouds that had been accumulated in his heart for many days were scattered in a moment!
Then when the emperor heard that Gao Yue used "paper coins to exchange" and could complete the tax transfer without carrying a large number of copper coins and cloth, he even praised him and specially called Pei Yanling, saying that the Ministry of Revenue could not create this exchange quality database, so he should learn more about Gao Lang's experience in Yangzhou.
Pei Yanling only felt that his face seemed to be stinged by millions of thorns, so he could only laugh at him, and he couldn't tell a truth even if he wanted to.
So the emperor looked at him and couldn't help but feel a little contempt and disappointment. Then he said to himself: If the Ministry of Revenue does not do it, my Daying Qionglin needs to do it. Huo Zhongtang can send out the weaving and dyeing and treasures in the palace to sell, and then transport the physical local products obtained from the official villages in various places to the capital to sell. He used paper coins similar to Gaolang to exchange them. How convenient is it? Why didn't I think of it before?
"Although my poems are much better than Gao Lang, my understanding of money makes me feel inferior. Thank you Liu Yan, and you can still leave me such a student who is worse than you can!"
"Your Majesty is really smart. I am foolish in my opinion, and I risk my life to make suggestions. Since it is so fast to exchange paper coins, your Majesty might as well order to draw thirty cents from each stake of money to exchange for money. This way..."
Just when Pei Yanling thought the emperor would praise his ability to make money, the emperor laughed at him and said, "If you spend money in the paper currency, who dares to use it? Isn't paper currency equivalent to waste paper? According to my opinion, not only can't draw money, but it should be stipulated that officials and people should give money to the treasury to give money to the treasury, and they have to give him some interest, so that the real money in the treasury will increase and the paper currency will be truly valuable. Pei Qing - just do some activities to transfer the treasury for me. You don't understand the real affairs of the world."
After Pei Yanling was so angry that he returned to the house, he wrote a letter, scolding Wang Haichao, the queen of Yangzi, and was unable to vent his power.
The emperor read the Huainan Jinzouyuan's official newspaper and published Gao Yue's actual plan to compile the Wu Yi army, and realized that Gao Yue did not want to form a huge army of "70,000 masters and apprentices". Instead, Wu Yi's Ya Army was only 18,000 and Huainan Town Garage Army of 8,000. The actual number of troops was reduced by 9,000 compared to before Huainan, so his admiration for Gao Yue was still better than before.
At this time, the emperor regretted again and sent Li Qi to Runzhou and kept the Zhenhai Army.
But the arrow was gone, and the emperor could only eat Coptis chinensis in a mute manner, burying the pain and guilt deep in his heart...
By September, after the fleet returned to Yangzhou, the merchants who disembarked received money from the quarantine warehouse.
However, these money was also circulated in Jiuzhou, Huainan, or a considerable part of them were taken by merchants to trade in the surrounding vassal roads. For a time, Huainan, Bian Song, Xu Si, Xiang Deng, Xuanrun, and the water and land trade routes within it flourished. The Yangtze River Baisha Taxation Field alone collected 2,000 guan of money for the journey in just two months.
The taxation market at the north gate of Shouchun City and Chuanguan Lake alone also collected 900 stagnants of coins within two months.
To alleviate the shortage of money, balanced prices, and developed trade, the people, merchants and governments can benefit.
What's even more amazing is that Huainan has abundant money and goods, and the phenomenon of secretly casting by the people has indeed been greatly reduced. So Gao Yue issued a notice saying that the government would take out 100,000 guan of good money every year and recycle the same amount of bad money to rebuild it. The people flocked to them with bad money, and the markets everywhere, and Xuji began to refuse to accept bad money.
The current trend is that good coins drive out bad coins.
Not only that, Liu Zongyuan, who is working in the painting industry in Guangzhou, also heard that the price of land without owners in Caizhou was "warming". Many merchants were willing to let the governor Gao Yue use land to pay off the debt. Gao Yue's debt has "repaid" 600,000 chunks of debt at this stage.
Therefore, the smart Gao Yue took the opportunity to gather other unowned lands, waiting for the merchants who had already bought land to come to Caizhou to build residences, stacks, and shops, and then waited for an opportunity to continue selling the remaining land at a higher price.
In the military mansion of Shugangzicheng, Yangzhou, Gao Yue held his hands behind his back, and Jiangdu made Han Yu follow him like a student. Although he should have taken care of the matter in the Jiangdu County Party, the two taxes have been completed now. When the farmers are idle, he is also idle, so he often comes here to accompany Gao Yue.
When Han Yu and Xue Tao got married, Gao Yue also imitated Wei Gao, the governor of Jiannan, to spend 200 guan from his miscellaneous money, and asked his wife to give him twenty pieces of colored wine, which was the only gift to Han Yu and his wife.
At this time, Han Yu understood that Gao Yue was really good to him, and he couldn't help but feel: Do you think of me as a child and pass on your robe to me in the future?
Just like him and Liu Yan.
"Go back, how do you calculate this question?"
"It's like this. Originally, I had Guanjian in Huainan Town, and I stationed 20,000 in Yangzhou City, and also had 15,000 children. Most of them were stationed in Shouzhou and Chuzhou. Guanjian paid about 28 guan per person every year. Unite only had body grains and pickles, and each person had about 12 guan per year. In this way, the military expenditure in Huainan should be about 740,000 guan. Now, you have reformed the military system. Wuyi's three armies have a total of 18,000 generals and soldiers, each of whom had a total of 45 guan per year. Then, the garrison troops were 8,000, and each person had 20 guan per year." Han Yuxin calculated the matter and reported the numbers and said, "Then the military expenditure was 970,000 guan..."
Gao Yue nodded a little heavy and said to Han Yu, although I had sold out 9,000 soldiers, the actual burden was increased by more than 200,000 jin.
If the extra money is taxed and spread to the people, it would be enough for each household in Huainan to pay half a guan of money - but I can't bear to do such a thing, but fortunately, the Holy Lord is kind to you this year. As long as we offer 300,000 guan, we can leave an additional 400,000 guan. I used Caizhou to offset nearly half of the original debt, and I will find a way to do the rest. Therefore, the most urgent task is to draw the scriptures and balance the taxes, including the hidden households and hidden fields, so that the income will be increased by more than 200,000 guan.
Han Yu thought about it and said, "That is, once the anvil base book in Jiuzhou, Huainan is built, the tax amount can be determined. There is no need to measure the amount of money, but you can live in the amount of money!"
Gao Yue nodded and said that the base book of the anvil is equivalent to the national economy book in Huainan. Once it is complete, the level of the households can be determined according to the amount of property. The road is prepared to be divided into seven levels. The first second class is the household rank of the powerful household, the middle third class is the middle third class is the middle second class, and the second class is the poor household. At that time, the tax money of the poor households can be exempted from taxes and distributed to the powerful households. Of course, the powerful households can also pay for the service of the poor households to cope with the service. The one who benefits the most should be the middle-income households. In addition, if the tax amount is stable and the living within the limits can be achieved, the bad phenomenon of "only increase and not eliminate" in the tax burden of the people under the two tax laws can also be cultivated to prevent the financial resources of a large number of middle-income households from losing.
