Time travel rebellion, I'm serious

Chapter 528 The reform of the Han military tax system is implemented

Prince Yi Yi is not a simple figure, but this will not affect the Han army, at least at this stage.

At the same time, the world was passing by in such a noisy manner that even the autumn harvest was ordinary.

Of course, the autumn harvest is not simply ordinary. After all, the harvest of food and many battles will take place after the autumn harvest. Therefore, the autumn harvest is destined to be ordinary, but it is also destined to be extraordinary.

Under the rule of the Han army, the army would go to the countryside during the autumn harvest to help orphans and widows or those who really had no one at home to harvest food, or to help families who were too late to harvest food.

This kind of thing has become a routine under the execution of the Han army for three consecutive years. Even when the army is free from training, the army will help the villagers weed and cultivate the land not far from the station.

It can be said that under the ideological guidance, the soldiers of the Han army were as close to the people as fish in water, forming a situation where you are among me and you are among me.

In traditional places like Daqian and Bailian, autumn harvest is also important, at least it is quite important to harvest food.

The powerful landowners always urged the long-term slaves to harvest grain as soon as possible, hoping to put it into warehouses as soon as possible.

At this time, they attach great importance to food. If a grain of food is scattered, they will feel distressed for a long time, and they will definitely reprimand and whip the servants who are not careful.

If you don’t see it, they spend a lot of money the rest of the time, letting the food get moldy and rotting and not willing to give a little bit of charity to the victims.

The common people are looking forward to these grains, while the landlords and powerful bureaucrats are greedy.

The people didn't have many requirements, they just wanted to have enough to eat.

But the landlords and bureaucrats are different. What they want to do is to squeeze out the people's food, then squeeze out the oil and water from them, then take over their fields, sell their wives and daughters, and finally turn them into slaves. .

It can be said that there are so many people in the world that everyone wants to take a bite.

But the people knew nothing about this and continued to work hard, hoping to harvest one more grain of grain so that they would not starve to death this year and have a full meal.

Their extravagances are really not much.

But almost no one cares about their extravagant wishes!

After all, people are like crops in the field, which can grow one after another. Even if there is no one here today, it won't be long before the place is filled with people again.

These untouchables seem to have emerged from the ground.

However, what is different from previous years and since ancient times is that there is a more powerful force in the world now. They also pay more attention to the people and sincerely think about the people.

Here is the Han army.

For most people today, if there is a paradise in this world, it is probably with the Han army.

It’s unclear whether the people there will have enough to eat, but one thing is certain, that is, no one will starve to death.

Therefore, the people under the rule of the Han army were really the most active in paying taxes.

In Daqian and Bailian, the people's taxes were generally collected by the landlords and gentry, who then handed them over to the tax collectors, and finally went to the granary and so on.

In addition to the heavy taxes on the people, some people also had to do corvee service, which was simply forcing people to death.

The situation here is different for the Han Army. It takes more than ten miles or even further from the village to the food point in the town.

But the simple people, the whole family came together and happily carried the food to the town's food delivery point.

For a time, there were long queues at the food delivery points in the town, and they were crowded with people.

It was very lively at this time. Some people paid more grain than expected, so the Han army staff returned the grain to them.

It's not because of anything else, but because the family has a pretty good idea of ​​how much land they have and how much food they can harvest. Even if there are mistakes, they won't be too far off.

Moreover, the Han army also set a floating standard, that is, if the food exceeds the red line, the food will be returned, and if it is below the red line but not lower than the floating standard, it will be ignored.

But if it is lower than the lower floating standard, the staff will have to have a good talk with it.

Therefore, when the food is handed over, the food handing point is really busy.

"Ah, this Liu Laowu family paid five more buckets of food, he is a real person!"

These words were obviously complimentary. After all, the staff of the Han Army personally returned the five measures of grain, and there was no way it could be faked.

Of course, as for whether it is enough or less, the Han army does not say anything, and no one knows.

"Hey, this old man's family actually paid one stone less of food. He really deceived the Han army into thinking they were fools!!"

"Bah, this thing is so shameless!"

"That's right, if you lose one stone of food, who will you fool?"

"That's right, I have all the food, but I still pay less, what a wolf-hearted thing!"

"Tch, how can you say this to him? What if his family is full of lazy people and don't care about serving Tian at all? What if he loses one stone?"

"That's right. People like this are lazy, stupid and bad, bah!"

For a time, anyone who was scheming was scolded, and even those from the same village had to stay away.

If there were clan members in the village, the whole village would be ashamed of themselves!

If there was a dispute with them in the next village, they would immediately call them ungrateful beasts and spit in their faces, and they would have to endure it.

In response, an old man in Zhangjiacun couldn't help but cursed when he saw this.

"Zhang Laosan, you beast!"

Of course, the real hotspot of the Han army at this time was not here, but in the two towns in Hetu Mountain.

At this time, the people in these two towns also began to turn in grain, and the whole family, old and young, carried the grain to pay taxes.

However, while waiting for the food to be weighed, the staff said:

"That's a lot more, folks, you've paid a lot of food!"

"Our army has stipulated that our town will implement new tax payment standards from now on."

"If the average ration of a person in a family does not exceed six dan, there is no need to pay a grain of grain."

In response, the people were in an uproar.

"Really? Will the food tax system really be changed in the future?"

The staff member quickly said: "Of course it's true."

The people asked: "Oh, what should I do with this grain?"

You must know that the autumn harvest is the last grain harvest of the year, and they have also handed over the summer harvest, so how should this be calculated?

Just listen to the staff say: "Each person needs five dan of grain every year, so these five dan of grain become fixed rations, and the remaining grain is used as surplus grain."

"If the grain is less than one stone, it will not be taxed, and the surplus grain that is more than one stone will be taxed."

Then the staff explained the detailed standards again, and now the people completely understood.

Because the people in these two towns were relatively early, they all had four acres of land per person. After paying taxes during the summer harvest, each person had an average of four kilo of grain left.

This year's autumn harvest was poor due to strong winds, so the average harvest from one acre of land is one stone and five measures of grain, so one person has six tons of grain.

According to the new tax law of the Han army, if you have ten shi of grain, of which five shi is surplus grain, you only need to pay a grain tax of seven dou and five liters.

Seven buckets and five liters, compared with three stones of grain, that is simply too much less.

The people will still settle the accounts.

However, some people still asked doubtfully, "How will the food tax be paid next year?"

The staff member said: "Next year, our town's food will be harvested once a year."

"At that time, you don't need to pay taxes for the summer harvest. You only need to report how much grain you harvested. After harvesting the autumn harvest grain, you can pay taxes directly from the autumn harvest grain!"

"This calculation starts with five dan of surplus grain. For every additional dan, two buckets and five liters of grain will be collected on the original basis."

When the people heard this, their heads suddenly got big.

They were not good at this arithmetic for a while.

But their children were quick to provide answers.

"If we can harvest two dan from an acre of land at a time, no surprise, one person can harvest sixteen dan in a year."

"In this way, each of us will have eleven shi of food left over, and then we only need to pay the grain tax of two shi."

"hiss..........."

All the villagers couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. Now, the people are prosperous! !

Soon, the news spread throughout the Han army.

After the policy was implemented, the people relaxed for a while, and then they all rejoiced.

When the Han army comes, good times are coming.

The longer the Han army stayed, the better their lives became!

"Long live the Han army!"

The sudden cheers completely turned the Han army into a sea of ​​joy.

Whether they were farmers, traders, craftsmen, scholars, etc., all of them praised the kindness of the Han army and shouted long live the Han army.

In Changsha City, Liu Wu couldn't help but smile as he listened to the cheers of the people in the city and whispered:

"Look, people's wishes are always very simple!!!"
