Wei and Jin Cooks

   Chapter 151 Calculations

   Zhao Hanzhang has tasted them one by one, and when she walked out of the alley, many people came out with bowls to show her off, and warmly greeted her after eating their dinner before leaving.

   Zhao Hanzhang thanked him with a smile, and dragged Fu Tinghan away quickly.

   She only let go of Fu Tinghan when she walked all the way, and heaved a sigh of relief, "I'm too enthusiastic to take it."

  Fu Tinghan kept laughing, "But I think you're quite happy eating."

   "People invited me to dinner, I can't show pain, right?" Zhao Hanzhang sighed, "Bean rice and wheat rice are really unpalatable, especially bean rice."

  Fu Tinghan said: "Although there is a lot of land per capita, the yield per mu here is also very low. If you want to eat all white flour, you can't achieve it in a short time. I think steamed bread mixed with bran is good, and it should be able to be made into pancakes."

   Zhao Hanzhang nodded, "The beans should still be used for feed, sauce, vinegar, and oil extraction. It's enough to make some dishes. It's too embarrassing to make bean rice."

  Fu Tinghan: "Then you have to ensure that starting next year, the per capita harvest of wheat is enough to consume for one year."

   "Let's go, let's go back and calculate, based on the current yield per mu, how many mu of land per capita will be enough for one year after paying full taxes."

   Geng Rong followed in a daze, thinking for a while or decided he didn't understand and asked, "Does the lady want to make the people stop eating bean rice?"

   "You can still eat it if you want. I just want them to have a better life, so I can reduce the consumption of bean rice and replace it with better wheat rice or steamed buns."

   Zhao Hanzhang said: "And there are many uses for soybeans. Raising horses, raising cattle, brewing vinegar, and pressing oil all require a lot of beans."

   "It's too wasteful to squeeze oil out of beans," Geng Rong said, thinking of the oil that had fallen from the city guard, "Tung oil should be enough."

   "I'm talking about the oil you eat. Have you ever eaten soybean oil? I'll let someone squeeze it out for you to taste. It's delicious."

   Geng Rong stared, "Is soybean oil edible?"

   "Soybean rice can be eaten, why can't soybean oil be eaten?"

   Geng Rong thinks it is true, tung oil cannot be eaten because tung fruit cannot be eaten, but beans can be eaten, then soybean oil can also be eaten.

  Zhao Hanzhang said: "The horse will become fat and strong after eating beans, and the surface will be smooth. Soybean oil has the same effect on people. At that time, the bean dregs can be fed to pigs, cows, horses, etc. It's perfect."

   Fu Tinghan asked his soul, "Can you squeeze oil?"

   Zhao Hanzhang was silent for a while and then said, "No."

   Fu Tinghan, "Neither would I." He didn't even understand.

   Zhao Hanzhang didn't give up, "You always know the principle, right?"

  Fu Tinghan: "Squeeze?"

   Zhao Hanzhang is full of confidence, he already knows there is this thing, and he can always make it, "Go back and try."

  Returning to the county office, Zhao Hanzhang left Geng Rong to eat, "The autumn harvest is over, and it is time to start planting winter wheat. I decided to divide some fields before that."

Geng Rong heard Zhao Hanzhang mention it, but she thought it was just her first entry into the county, and she made a random promise in order to stabilize people's hearts, but she didn't expect that she actually wanted to divide the land, he couldn't help asking: "Does everyone divide it? "

   "Only for those who have little or no land."

   "Girl, it's a rare time for Xiping County to be united. I'm afraid it will destroy this situation."

  Fu Tinghan also said: "Don't suffer from widowhood but suffer from unevenness."

"That's why I will issue an announcement that, in addition to taxes, the people who divide the land will also pay 10% of the tenancy rent to the county government for five years," Zhao Hanzhang said: "After five years, as long as the land is being cultivated, The land automatically belongs to them, and in the past five years, as long as there is no farming for one year, the county government will automatically take back the land."

"And those who own land and feel that they are not enough to cultivate can also apply to the county government, but all the land they apply for and their private land must be cultivated. The same requirement is that within five years, the applied land will pay an annual fee of 10%. If it becomes a tenant lease, the private land registered and registered within the five years must be cultivated for the same five years as the tenant lease. As long as a piece of land is empty, it will be regarded as a malicious seizure of the official land. , their private fields will also be confiscated."

  Fu Tinghan was surprised, "Such a heavy punishment?"

   Zhao Hanzhang said with a sneer at the corner of his mouth: "So, my official farm is not so good."

   This move is mainly aimed at people who clearly already have enough fields, but are aiming at the official fields and want to occupy more.

After thinking about it, Fu Tinghan shook his head, "It's better to convert the tax into the equivalent tenancy rent and lease it directly to people who have no or little land. Anyway, Xiping County is now your caller, you didn't want to hand over the tax to the higher level, you It is enough to exempt these people from the tax after collecting the tenant rent.”

He said: "Converting this into tenancy rent, it is equivalent to that they are renting your land. People who already have enough land for farming will not think of coming to you to rent land. You can wait for them to rent the land for a certain period of time. Ownership is handed over to them, then taxes are reinstated, and tenancy is abolished."

   "But in this way, people who don't have land don't matter. Because people with less land cultivate different fields, if they are all exempted from taxes, the rent they need to pay will also be different. How is this calculated?"

Fu Tinghan said: "Now they are all extensive farming, so the per capita farming has reached 20 mu of land. Since you want to improve the yield per mu and also want to increase the population, my suggestion is to directly shorten it by half, and calculate it according to the per capita ten mu. In this case, I will do the statistics. Now, the number of people with less land and the corresponding number of acres in the brochure, I can subdivide them from households, and calculate the corresponding tenancies according to the tenancy of one mu to ten mu. When the time comes to collect taxes, just follow the booklet.”

   Zhao Hanzhang said: "In this way, the workload of the county government will be huge."

  Fu Tinghan spread his hands and said, "It's unavoidable, there's always one thing to lose, it's up to you to choose."

   Zhao Hanzhang thought for a while and said, "Listen to you, anyway, we have to cultivate and recruit talents, and Xiping County can assign them as their homework."

   Geng Rong ate silently on the side, but after that, he was at a loss as to whether he understood it or not.

   Zhao Hanzhang glanced at him, and then he remembered, and encouraged: "Geng Rong, please help Fu Dalang Jun to complete this matter."

Geng Rong looked embarrassed and wanted to say that he didn't understand, but he felt that it was not good to leave such an impression on the boss, so he hesitated for a while, Zhao Hanzhang had already withdrawn his eyes, and gave Fu Tinghan a chopstick and egg, "Eat more protein, It's been exhausting too much lately."

  Fu Tinghan said in disapproval: "It's just the simplest calculation, it doesn't consume brains, but it is complicated and energy-intensive."

   "By the way, what about Fu An?" Zhao Hanzhang said: "Let him choose a few smart people to follow you, and in the future you can order them to do it, so that it can be a little easier."

  Fu Tinghan was taken aback for a moment, "Yes, where's Fu An?"

   The two of them looked at each other and couldn't remember for a while, but Geng Rong said, "It seems that they were following the second son. I saw them running all the way out of the city today, saying they were going to Wubao to greet them, but I don't know if they came back."
