Zhangsun Wuji didn't know why, but when he saw Li Ke's smile, he couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.
A chill instantly rose from the soles of his feet.
"Lord Zhangsun, you said to reduce taxes, so let me ask you. If those poor families only have 100 catties of grain left after a season's harvest, then what's the difference between collecting 70 catties and collecting 10 catties?”
As Li Ke spoke, he took a step forward in Zhangsun Wuji's direction.
His tone was filled with a questioning tone.
"This…"
[Ding-dong. The host has successfully defeated Zhangsun Wuji. Reward: Stamina 1.]
After Zhangsun Wuji heard Li Ke's words, he suddenly had no idea how to answer.
"Then isn't it still possible to drive…"
"Open what? Open a warehouse? Open your own warehouse? War could break out at the border at any time. The grain in the granaries of various countries was military supplies. At this moment, they had just harvested a season of grain. Now that they were opening the granaries to provide disaster relief, the national grain was exhausted. If there was a war at this time, would the country buy the stock of the people? Let some people make a fortune from the national disaster?"
Li Ke did not give Zhangsun Wuji a chance to turn around. He took another step forward and looked at him with a questioning tone.
Moreover, his voice was raised an octave. It could be said that he was reprimanding her.
"This…"
Zhangsun Wuji was immediately shocked by Li Ke's suddenly raised voice.
She subconsciously took a step back.
[Ding-dong. The host has once again angered Zhangsun Wuji. Rewarding Stamina 1, Divine Chariot Red Rabbit.]”
"Then, then what do you think we should do?"
After Zhangsun Wuji took a step back, he immediately sensed that something was wrong.
If he retreated like this, it would not be a simple matter!
This was admitting defeat in front of all the officials!
No matter what, he was still the prime minister of a dynasty. He could be said to be a figure below one person.
He was actually intimidated by such a yellow-haired kid.
Therefore, he immediately began to fight back.
"What should I do? This was a good question. It fully reflected your lack of concern and consideration for the people's livelihood.”
[Ding-dong. Congratulations to the host for attacking Zhangsun Wuji again. Reward: Stamina 1.]
After Li Ke finished his sentence, he didn't give the other party a chance to fly into a rage and directly turned to look at Li Shi Min who was sitting on the dragon throne.
"Imperial Father, in your son's opinion, the foundation of the people lies in the fields. Now that the Great Tang was vast and had abundant resources, there were tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, but how much of this fertile land was in the hands of the people? To put it bluntly, there were hundreds of households in a village, and the number of people who actually had land under their names was probably less than a handful! Those with land were naturally rich, but did they pay the taxes that a village of land should pay?”
Li Ke's question was very sharp.
Li Er wasn't the only one who frowned after hearing this.
Even the ministers frowned when they heard this.
Li Er frowned because this was indeed a problem.
The ministers frowned because they were the small group of people that Li Ke had mentioned.
[Ding-dong. The host has successfully defeated the ministers. Reward: Stamina 1.]”
While they were frowning, Li Ke felt good.
After receiving the consecutive physical rewards, he felt that his body was filled with strength.
If it wasn't for the fact that it was inconvenient at the moment, he would have gone to find a cow to see if he could kill it with a single punch.
"Ke 'er, in your opinion, how should we deal with this matter?”
After Li Er heard Li Ke's words, he directly lowered his head and pondered.
Seeing that the Emperor was deep in thought, the people below naturally did not dare to speak.
However, Li Ke's words had already made it so clear. These people did not need to think to know that the follow-up was the reform of farmland ownership.
But if the Emperor did not speak, who would dare to speak?
Li Er thought for a while and frowned as he looked up at Li Ke.
With a look of 'I don't have a good solution,' he began to ask Li Ke questions.
"F * ck, old fox, I've already made it so clear, and you're still talking nonsense with me? If you don't want to offend anyone, just say it. You even specially asked me to take the blame!”
Li Ke looked at Li Er, who was obviously acting, and felt very displeased.
But at this time, he had no other choice. Li Er could play dumb, but he couldn't play dumb when he brought up the topic!
"Imperial Father, according to your son, calculate the fertile land and population of each family. Then, allocate the land according to the population and make a line for the number of land that each family can have. There was a lot of land, but it could not be too much. Something like a family owning more than a thousand hectares of fertile land must not happen. If there were people who privately occupied land, it would shake the foundation of the country. They should be punished for treason and their entire family should be executed as a warning to others.”
As soon as Li Ke said this, a strong killing intent directly permeated through the words.
The officials in the court were shocked.
Even Li Er, who was sitting on the seat, was shocked by Li Ke's thoughts.
"Your Highness Wu Wang, isn't it a little too much to directly execute the entire family just because they occupied a piece of land? Such a heavy slaughter would probably arouse the anger of the people! That's also..."
As soon as Li Ke finished speaking, a minister stood out under Zhangsun Wuji's signal.
Li Ke didn't turn his head and didn't care who the other party was.
He directly opened his mouth and retorted.
"Sir, do you think it's too heavy? Could it be that there were too many fertile fields in the family, enough to kill nine generations? "Don't worry. Before that, we will definitely have to redistribute the land. We won't directly punish them. However, if they don't hand over the land, that might not be the case.”
[Ding-dong. The host has successfully defeated the Minister of Rites. Reward: Stamina 1.]
