Their Lucky Star Was Transmigrated!

Beijing, Yan Mansion.

The cabinet scholars Yan Jing and Yan Yuanshu are hosting a visitor.

The Order of the House of the Tang Dynasty, the uncle of Emperor Yongping, the honorary king Li Heng.

"His Royal Highness, please!"

Yan Jing poured a cup of tea for King Yu, made a "please" gesture, and then sat back to his place.

Yu Wang smiled and said, "Scholer Yan, this tea, I don't think it is Fanpin!"

"The King of Fame is too fame, this is a couple of teas on the street!"

What is a tea or two?

It's a tael of silver and a tael of tea.

Is this good tea?

Naturally not!

Really good tea is sold for money. Counting two silvers or gold can buy a dollar.

But are these two teas bad?

This is a good tea compared to the tea that is said to be by the catty.

Nobles and nobles don't look down on a couple of teas, and the street folks can't afford a couple of teas.

These two teas have become the favorites of many middle-level officials.

With such a background and status as Yan Jing, he actually drank a couple of teas, which surprised King Yu.

"Everyone tells me that Li Heng is the old man, and the bachelor of banquet is more stingy than the king, even better!"

King Yu took the teacup and took a sip.

Yan Jing smiled, and said: "His Royal Highness, the salaries of the subordinates can also drink these two teas. As for the family assets, which are not Yan Jing's income, you dare to splurge?"

"No wonder the saint values ​​you, this king also admires this integrity!"

King Yu nodded, and said, "This king is coming over this time, but there is something to do. I plan to ask Yuan Shu!"

"His Royal Highness, please tell me!"

Yan Jing responded quickly.

In this Tang Dynasty, the saint is the supreme being that cannot be offended.

And below the sage, is the clan’s mansion, the honorary king Li Heng.

Because the Clan Family Mansion of the Tang Dynasty is not only in charge of the royal family, but also the nobles of the court.

Yan Jing didn't have a knighthood, but their Yan Mansion was also a hero of the founding of the country, a hereditary military prince of the first rank. His eldest brother is now the rank of Marquis of Zhenjun.

"The saint named Zhao Bingzhen, the second child of the Zhao family, as a first-class rich and noble man, but this king went to check it. Our rich and noble man is as poor as he is!"

"Yuan Shu, what do you think of this matter?"

"..."

Hearing the question about King Yu, Yan Jing wanted to say, I sat and watched.

But if he really answered like that, I'm afraid King Yu could slap him in the air.

"His Royal Highness, can the next official ask how many properties this rich and nobleman originally had?"

"……No!"

Yu Wang was stunned for a moment, and gave an answer that made him laugh and cry.

"That's amazing, since this rich man does not have constant production under his name, how did he do the same thing before?"

"He has some disciples, respectful!"

"Also, his sister's dowry is also in his hands!"

"Dingbei Hou Yuan with wife's dowry!"

Yan Jing paused for a while. Isn't this the dowry for his elder brother and his mother? This is what should be returned to its original owner!

King Yu saw Yan Jing pause, only to say that he had a good idea.

As a result, what made King Yu collapsed was that Yan Jing said: "His Royal Highness, the minister thought that since Dingbei Hou was taking care of his sister’s dowry, now Xiaoyi Lang has grown up, is this dowry worthy of it? How about returning to the original owner?"

"If Fugui Hou feels that the dowry should not be given to his sister's son, then, according to my Datang practice, this dowry should be inherited by the Defu Township!"

"So, this property, your Royal Highness, you have the right to intervene!"

At first hearing this, Yu Wang should jump up happily.

But the Tang Dynasty Clan Mansion also has laws and regulations. If the industry is under the name of minor nobles, the Clan Mansion only has the right to supervise, and not the right to collect taxes.

The owner of Defu is not one year old yet!

According to the rules laid down by Emperor Taizu of the Tang Dynasty, when a woman reaches 16 years of age, can she live for 16 years?

Yu Wang almost didn't spit out a mouthful of old blood.

"Yuan Shu, is there no other way?"

"You know, the life in the Clan Mansion is sad!"

"His Royal Highness, please forgive the officials for helplessness!"

Yan Jing said decisively that he had no move.

What's the joke, these dowries, but his elder niece, he is an uncle, can it help outsiders figure out the things of his niece?

I, Yan Jing, Wu Xing Wushuang, definitely can't do such a shameless thing.

Yu Wang came in melancholy, and left in melancholy.

However, he still decided to urge Zhao Bingzhen, as long as Zhao Bingzhen continued to control the dowry, then he would always have a way to buckle something out of his hand.

What made King Yu even more grief and indignation was that when he returned to the clan’s mansion, he received a document from the rich and noble man, Zhao Bingxuan, and asked the clan’s mansion to supervise all the dowry he was about to transfer to his elder sister’s granddaughter Defu Township. , And various industries derived from the dowry over the years.

Looking at a box full of copies of various documents, Yu Wang felt that his heart was bleeding.

No way, the clan mansion is really poor.

The clan mansion built by Emperor Taizu was purely for the royal family and nobles. There are a lot of things to do, but what about silver?

Relying on the nobles' property to collect taxes.

For imperial court taxation, the commercial tax is one tax of ten, and the land tax is one tax of fifteen.

The ten tax of commercial tax is well understood, that is, the merchant earns ten cents and pays one cent of taxes.

The land tax's 15 tax one is five to five cents for tenants and landlords, and the landlord pays another cent for the tax. Tenant households do not need to bear any land tax.

Of course, if it is one's own farmland, it is five taxes and one tax.

What about tax collection in the clan government?

Land tax is 30 tax one, and commercial tax is 20 tax one.

If this is the case, then the life of the Clan Mansion will not be sad. But Emperor Taizu formulated an incremental and subtractive method, that is, according to the amount of honorable income, the tax rate was changed.

Anyway, tossing to the end, the life in the Clan Mansion was really sad.

The king also wanted to buy more properties for the nobles, but with more properties, they were basically working for the clan mansion. Are you silly? Naturally it is not stupid.

As a result, the nobles are stuck with standards and control the industry.

When necessary, they are divided into families.

The branch that was divided still enjoys the shelter of the noble family, but it is no longer among the noble ones.

Collect taxes?

Collect a gross tax!

Every half of the night, Yu Wang would be full of resentment towards Emperor Taizu. Isn't this the offspring?

Everyone knows that if you want a horse to run, you have to feed it.

But in the clan's mansion, he did the older work, settled the disputes of the older ones, and took a meager salary. The worst thing is that, many times, the job is still offensive.

"What evil did this king do in his last life?"

In charge of the ancestral mansion, the power seems to be under the Yongping Emperor, but only he himself knows the ups and downs.

What? Why is it not sweet?

He, the decree of the dignified family, the prince of the imperial court, occasionally had to use his salary and family property to give his subordinates New Year gifts. Just say, where is the sweetness?
