Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as the crown prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Gang, Zhu Di and other princes below, all concentrated on thinking about the solution Yan Changqing had just given.
After a moment, Zhu Yuanzhang, the crown prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Gang, Zhu Di and other princes nodded secretly.
They did not find any loopholes in the solutions Yan Changqing had just mentioned, at least it sounded highly feasible.
Suddenly, Jin Wang Zhu Gang looked up at Yan Changqing and raised his hand to indicate that he had questions.
Yan Changqing's eyes fell on Jin Wang Zhu Gang, and he said gently:
"Is there anything you don't understand, Your Highness?!!"
Jin Wang Zhu Gang immediately stood up, bowed slightly, and said:
"Sir, you just said that the number of acres of land can only increase, but why did the land tax collected from the same amount of acres of land sometimes decrease instead of increase?!!"
Yan Changqing nodded and explained:
"There are two reasons. On the one hand, it is a disaster year, which is needless to say."
"On the other hand, it is because the relationship of the landowner has been changed!!!"
"After all, the collection of land tax is levied on the owner of the land."
"Once the owner of the land changes, the collection of land tax will naturally change."
"For example, in order to evade taxes and labor service, officials and wealthy families in Jiangsu and Zhejiang divided their properties and then pretended to be in Others lowered their household status to avoid the corvée or taxes that they should have performed.
"Another example is the transfer of official land to private land, because the official land needs to pay a land tax of 5 liters, 3 he and 5 teaspoons per mu, while the private land needs to pay a land tax of 3 liters, 3 he and 5 teaspoons per mu.
"So if the official land is transferred to private land, on the one hand, it can be embezzled, and on the other hand, it can pay less land tax.
"Another example is that local generals abandoned and abandoned official land, and instead used soldiers to reclaim 950 private land for their own, and profited from it."
"There are also collusion with local governments to define the official land or private land that could have been cultivated as abandoned wasteland."
"In this way, the wasteland is openly "ownerless", so naturally there is no need to collect land tax on these "wasteland". "
"In fact, these "wasteland" still have owners, people cultivate them, and they produce a lot of grain every year, but because they are designated as "wasteland", they no longer have to pay land taxes. "
"For example, before the abolition of the policy of exempting officials from land taxes, many landlords also registered their land and acres under their names with officials who exempted land taxes to evade the collection of land taxes. "
"For example, in years of disaster, those officials, gentry, rich households, and landlords took advantage of the situation and forced the people who originally owned land and houses to sell their land and houses to them. "
"Then when these officials, gentry, rich households, and landlords reported the number of acres of land, they still only reported the number of acres of their original land, and secretly concealed the other acres of land they bought and sold, so as to evade or pay less land taxes. "
"There are other ways like this, but in essence, they all change the ownership of land and fields, and finally make them disappear quietly from the list of land and fields that should be paid or overpaid."
"Thus, those land and fields are actually still there, but they have disappeared from the land and fields account."
"In addition, the emperor cannot always visit the local area, so even if the number of land and fields in the local area decreases, the emperor cannot know it in time."
"The final phenomenon is that the number of land and fields registered and available for collection has decreased; or the number of land and fields remains unchanged, but the nature of the land and fields has changed. "
"As a result, the land and fields taxes collected by the court have become less than before. "
In the end, Yan Changqing shook his head slightly.
Land and fields don't have legs. Once opened, it is impossible for them to disappear.
Once it disappears, someone must have changed the owner of the land and moved its position on the list of land and field tax collection, or directly made it disappear from the list of land and field tax collection!!!
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as the crown prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Chong, Zhu Gang, Zhu Di and other princes whispered:
"Property division, falsely registered under someone else's name, lowering the household level, evading taxes and duties?!!"
"Official land to private land?! "
"Abandon the official land and use the army to reclaim private land?!!"
"Convert the official land and private land into wasteland?!!"
However, the more they talked, the uglier the faces of Zhu Yuanzhang, the crown prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Chong, Zhu Gang, Zhu Di and other princes became.
After all, the land and acreage taxes are the income of the state court, and those officials, gentry, rich families, and landlords evaded or underpaid the land and acreage taxes by changing the land owners, or concealed or underreported the amount of land and acreage.
In the eyes of Zhu Yuanzhang, the crown prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Gang, Zhu Di and other princes, this is robbing the state court's money, robbing their money!!!
How could Zhu Yuanzhang and the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes endure this?!!
“Is there no way to solve these problems?!!”
Jin Wang Zhu Fan looked up at Yan Changqing and continued to ask.
Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Di and other princes also looked at Yan Changqing expectantly.
Yan Changqing Yan Changqing patted the sand table of Wanmin Agricultural College in his hand and replied:
"have!!!"
"This sandbox model is the solution!!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes, all looked at the sand table model of Wanmin Agricultural College in their hands with puzzled faces.
[Isn’t this sand table model from Wanmin Agricultural College a tool used by Mr. Yan to give examples?!!]
[Can it also solve the problems just mentioned?!!]
【How to solve it?!!】
No matter how Zhu Yuanzhang, Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes carefully looked at the sand table model of Wanmin Agricultural College in their hands, they all did not know how to use this sand table model of Wanmin Agricultural College to solve the problem just now. The issues mentioned.
Looking at the confused expressions of Zhu Yuanzhang, Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes, Yan Changqing smiled and further explained:
"Your Majesty and Your Highnesses, can you see clearly how many acres of land Wanmin Agricultural College has through this sand table model?!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes, nodded one after another.
Not only can this be seen clearly, but the entire Wanmin Agricultural College can also be seen!!!
"The reason why the local acres of land can 'disappear' is because there are no total inventory statistics and incremental inventory statistics mentioned before to verify the number of local land acres."
"On the other hand, the emperor was bullied because he was too far away from the place and didn't know the changes in the local land, so he could only let the officials, gentry, and landlords below him do whatever they wanted."
“But if the mountains, rivers and lakes within the entire territory of the Ming Dynasty, as well as various provinces, prefectures, states, and counties, as well as the number of acres of land in the world after the first total inventory statistics, are all made into this kind of sand table model. "
"Then it will be distributed according to the location of each province, prefecture, state, and county, and presented in front of His Majesty and Your Highnesses like a three-dimensional map.
"Let the Great Tomorrow truly appear under the eyes of His Majesty and Your Highnesses!!!"
"From now on, Your Majesty and Your Highnesses can have a sweeping view of the entire Ming Dynasty through the Ming Dynasty sand table model without leaving the palace."
"From now on, every time the acres of land in various parts of the Ming Dynasty are increased and modified, the sand table model of the Ming Dynasty in front of Your Majesty and Your Highnesses will be increased and modified simultaneously!!!"
"If the land and acres tax levied by the local government on any day is different from the land and acres tax that should be recorded on the Ming Dynasty sand table model in front of Your Majesty and Your Highnesses.
"Then School Disciple will go directly to the local area to verify the land acres in that place to see if the production has been reduced due to the disaster and the corresponding land acres tax cannot be collected."
"It was local officials, gentry, landlords, etc. who used other means to make the land that should have existed 'disappear' or have its nature changed!!!"
"If it's the former, then it's understandable."
"If it's the latter, then those who should have their homes be ransacked and beheaded, and those who should be dismissed from office should be dismissed from office."
"In this way, Your Majesty and Your Highnesses, do you think the local officials, gentry, and landlords can still make certain lands disappear or change their nature?!!"
Yan Changqing looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes and asked with a smile.
Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes all shook their heads excitedly,
If the entire Ming Dynasty could be made into the sand table model of Wanmin Agricultural College in front of them, if the world changes, the Ming Dynasty sand table model will change with it.
If there is even the slightest change in the land of Ming Dynasty, it will not escape their eyes.
By then, it will be impossible for the local officials, gentry, landlords, etc. to deceive them!!!
When they thought of this, Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes, looked at the sand table model of Wanmin Agricultural College in their hands, and felt indescribable impulses in their hearts.
That is the urge that I can’t wait to make the entire world into this exquisite sand table model in front of me!!!
At that time, all the mountains, rivers, lakes, provinces, prefectures, states, counties, acres of land, etc. in the entire world will be made into this kind of exquisite sand table model.
And they are condescending, that feeling of truly having the whole world under their eyes, how refreshing and heroic it must be!!!
