Mystery Makes Me Strong

Salt tax, it seems simple.

Salt is the best tool used to collect taxes from the common people in ancient times.

Because everyone needs to eat salt, as long as they have a monopoly on the salt field, they can levy taxes by selling their qualifications to buy salt.

That is, salt citing. With salt citing, you can buy salt and then sell it in designated areas.

That is to say, but in practice, the space is too large.

It was only through Xiawang that the emperor could see exactly how the following was fooling him.

For example, the salt field will increase production. As long as it can be sold, the scale will gradually expand, the number of manpower will increase, and the skills will be proficient.

However, the total amount of salt for sale was determined decades ago, and the tax levied was naturally the same as it was decades ago.

No one will tell the emperor this.

That extra salt, the officials will not be wasted in vain.

After the sale, the salt merchants will give them a large sum of money to eat the salt and sell it.

This is only a theoretical loophole on paper.

That is to say, a tael of salt can actually be used by salt merchants to buy 3 taels, or even 5 taels, or 10 taels of silver!

How much tax is this missing?

Seeing this, the emperor laughed angrily.

Co-authoring up and down, there is only myself a confused egg.

But then again, how could he succeed in fighting against the greed of the entire official class with his diligent heart?

He has 12 hours a day, while others are thinking about how to exploit loopholes every day.

So he has to seek reliable foreign aid.

The most reliable people are, of course, those who have been hurt by the officials.

If he were the Emperor of Tartars, he would definitely not rely on these ordinary people, but would only rely on the people of his own tribe to suppress these officials.

But he is not. He can trust Xiaomin. After all, even the queen comes from a small family.

The ancestor emperors of the Dayan Dynasty never believed in big households.

…………

The emperor opened a new factory again!

The news quickly spread throughout the court.

This time it's an in-house factory!

After the establishment of the inner factory, they rushed to Jiangnan to sort out the salt work.

Before that, there were two towns of Xuanyiwei, north and south, Fusi, two factories in east and west, and now an internal factory has been added.

Moreover, the internal factory only accepts people from poor backgrounds.

A place without a cone.

The ministers were well aware of the emperor's intentions, but they didn't say anything on the face, and only fought by sabotage.

Anyway, the matter of the yamen can be postponed as long as it can, until the rebellion will be dealt with.

Everyone has long been accustomed to the emperor's demeanor.

If you don't believe us, then we don't work either.

If you don't work, you're right. If you are right, you will not be able to kill us. If you are right to kill a minister, that is a tyrant.

The emperor saw it all, and he yelled at the queen: "These bastards, I see them taking refuge in the Tartars, being whipped as slaves every day, but working hard, what kind of restraint are you pretending to be here?"

The emperor is also a human being, so he wouldn't scold people in classical Chinese when he was in a hurry...

"Your Majesty, that's because the Tartars are divided into two sides. They don't work, and some people do it." The Queen saw it clearly.

The interests of her and the emperor are one. If the emperor is gone, she will not be better off, and she will die in a few years.

"I mean, these ministers think that no one can replace them, right? I thought of a way." The emperor sneered.

A week later, the emperor directly issued a central decree: "Any minor official who has completed more than five years and has achieved outstanding achievements can be promoted to deputy administrator, and the rank will be temporarily ranked from the ninth rank..."

Officials are officials!

Aren't the officials colluding with each other?

Then when the imperial examination officials discovered that the practical officials were a threat to their position, could they still collude?

The emperor thought to himself.

Different from the calm when the inner factory was opened, this time it was like cold water entering a hot oil pan, and the government and the opposition shook!

"Your Majesty, the little officials don't read poetry and books, they have no morals in their hearts, they only know how to ask for silver taels... Absolutely, they must not be officials!" The first minister of Rites said sternly.

"You M!" The emperor came down from the throne, dashed over, and went up with a heart!

The Minister of Rites was kicked five meters away on the spot, if not blocked by a crowd, he would have almost died on the spot!

"You are full of poetry and books! When you're down, you hook up with the oiran, and don't care about the saint's dignity!"

"You don't talk about silver taels, but the cellar at home is full of silver taels! Thieves who are 9,000 catties are worried, there are five!"

The minister was silent for a while, speechless.

Everyone knows this, but who doesn't hide some big silver **** at home for emergencies?

The Minister of Rites fell to the ground, out of breath.

The emperor is tyrannical, there is no such thing as the former saint.

As for hiding some silver taels, I have worked hard to educate the world and preside over rituals. Isn't that what it should be?

Do my children and grandchildren not want to eat?

In my heart is very aggrieved.

Just can't say it.

He just gritted his teeth secretly and resigned when he went back to see who would be the Minister of Rites!

However, before he could finish thinking, the emperor said: "The Minister of Rites XXX corrupted the loot and perverted the law, and is a sage's son. He will be dismissed and handed over to the East Factory for investigation!"

The Minister of Rites immediately passed out.

Then the emperor changed another person to be the Minister of Rites, and this person had toiled for a long time in the Hanlin Academy.

Someone disagreed: "Your Majesty, this person has no experience at all, and I'm afraid he will make a fool of himself in etiquette."

"I heard it on Xia.com. The six official books, even if a dog is **** in their main hall, work the same way!"

People are puzzled.

"It's impossible." Someone said subconsciously.

"Because they don't work, they will be doing a disservice. At least the dog won't be doing a disservice!" The emperor sneered.

Today is a torn face with the ministers.

In fact, he wanted to endure it for a few years.

However, the more I looked at it, the more I couldn't bear it.

Those people are right, his temper is frivolous, he wants to get things done, but he can't wait for the time.

I can't wait to order it today, and it will be effective tomorrow.

"Pass my will, and in the future, in the main hall of the capital, a dog will be tied up!" he ordered.

The ministers were silent.

This face was taken to my grandmother's house, and it was thrown into the cesspool.

This is going to be in the history books!

Historians will surely record that during the XX years, Emperor XX personally said that a court official is not as good as a dog...

What if you don't want to be scolded?

Work hard, it doesn't exist.

The more you do, the more you go wrong.

It is right to call the emperor a foolish monarch.

The emperor is a faint monarch, just like King Zhou~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Who will remember the tyrannical tyranny of the princes? Who remembers the ill of ministers?

After going down.

Soon between the government and the opposition, in the Jiangnan region where literary style prevailed, it began to be rumored that the emperor was a foolish monarch.

Of course you can't say that.

"There is a villain around the emperor, and he wants to make a subordinate official. Isn't this a big joke in the world?"

"Yuan thinks that the emperor has just ascended the throne, everyone is prosperous, and now, treacherous and evil are everywhere."

"Okay, Zhongzheng Yingchao has not cured the government, otherwise, how can there be days when there are treacherous people?"

[To tell the truth, recently I have been using Mimi to read and read books to keep up with updates, switch sources, and read aloud tones, which can be used by both Android and Apple. 】

"That's because the villain is good at bewitching the king with all kinds of fun things, and the gentleman can't do those things!"

For a time, the emperor's reputation suffered greatly.

If it is usual, the emperor will be very worried when he hears these words.

Often under the pressure of Shihlin, they make a change of phase and general.

But today is different. He has Xiawang and can see the real situation.

Public opinion is no longer in the mouths of these imperial examination scholars.

"The emperor did a good job, those corrupt officials, let them fight themselves."

"Yeah, the little officials have been fed, but the new officials have a good appetite."

"It's not a good thing."

"When will the people come forward?"

"The emperor has reduced his training salaries and is no longer deceived by ministers, and life will get better."

"We know about it, but the magistrate still accepts it."

"This is simple, as long as you go to the capital to file a complaint in your dream, a factory boss will come to arrest people after half a month."
