"Brother, you're really a literary star!!”
Shi Huang did not hide the joy on his face as he laughed loudly.
"Your Majesty, we are sincerely convinced by the Great Commander!”
Wei Liao and Li Si said in admiration.
" Big Brother, are you done reading?!"
Bai Yu looked at Qin Shi Huang and said.
The First Emperor laughed and said with satisfaction,""I only saw half of it, but I believe in you!”
"Then, let's start from the beginning.”
" First of all, the land problem," Bai Yu said with a smile.”
Right now, Great Qin's land was mostly controlled by the nobles and officials. Under normal circumstances, it was already quite good for the commoners to get one Mu of land, and some commoners did not even have the rights to land.
Without land, it was impossible to sow food. Even so, the officials in charge of the area would still collect taxes according to the law!
The first rule that Bai Yu had to follow was to take back all the land of Great Qin and let the First Emperor distribute it!
"Grand Commander, I have some doubts.”
Wei Liao asked Bai Yu.
"Please speak, Lord Wei Liao." Bai Yu nodded slightly.”
"If Your Majesty takes back Great Qin's land, how will you distribute it to the people? Each household will be given a few acres of land."
Wei Liao asked," The second is taxes. Is it true that the more land there is, the higher the taxes for the people?"”
"Each household will be given two acres of land at the beginning.”
" After that, the land will be distributed according to the population of each household," Bai Yu explained." Each household will have no more than five acres of land."”
How many people did Great Qin have?
This included all the citizens of the six states.
The exact number was hard to imagine, not even White Feather.
Each household had a maximum of five acres of land, and according to the harvest per acre, they would be levied taxes.
"No matter how good the harvest is, we have to follow the tax system!" Bai Yu said.”
And the law stated that the tax was 30%!
At present, there were only a few types of grain grown in the Qin country. They were grass, wheat, millet, rice, millet, and beans.
Now, Great Qin's national treasury was filled with these kinds of grains.
However, all of Great Qin's land was currently controlled by the nobles, and some of the commoners did not have land to grow crops.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that the amount of food that the nobles had hoarded far exceeded the amount of food in Great Qin's treasury.
Wei Liao and Li Si nodded slightly after hearing White Feather's words.
"Big brother and sirs, please take a closer look at the back of the first law.'
Bai Yu said again.
Hearing this, Qin Shi Huang and the other two were stunned, but they still looked carefully according to White Feather's instructions.
…………
"This…"
Wei Liao and Li Si's expressions changed.
"Noble officials are not allowed to have more than two acres of land," Bai Yu said.”
"Commander, you mean…"
Although Wei Liao and Li Si were confused, they knew that White Feather would not specially mark this law for no reason!
Bai Yu smiled and took a sip of wine.
The First Emperor looked at the leisurely Bai Yu and his face darkened. He said in a bad mood,""Brother, tell me quickly."
Since Bai Yu did this, there must be a reason!
Moreover, this would definitely benefit Great Qin!
Wei Liao quickly said,"Commander, tell me."”
"This law was specially made for all noble officials.”
Bai Yu finished the wine in his cup and said lightly,""Because they will corrupt and eventually become parasites.”
Corrupted?
Moth?
Although they didn't understand what Bai Yu meant, Qin Shi Huang, Wei Liao, Li Si, and the others felt that it made sense.
"The so-called corruption refers to the use of power by noble officials to obtain any money.”
"After being corrupted, they will become parasites, and these people will become a threat to Great Qin!”
Bai Yu explained," The land is the restriction for them. Moreover, the current officials all have salaries. Giving them two acres of land is enough!”
"One more thing. If an official is bribed, once it is verified, the Embroidered Uniform Guards can directly confiscate his property!”
After hearing Bai Yu's explanation, Qin Shi Huang was enlightened.
"I see."
Wei Liao said in a deep voice," The nobles and officials are just like what the commander said. Those who are bribed are all corrupt and vermin!”
"However…if we take back all of Great Qin's land, the nobles will definitely resist.”
" What if the nobles unite and oppose it?" Li Si hesitated." What should we do?"!”
"Prime minister, you have to be careful.”
" It's not you, nor is it Lord Wei Liao, nor is it me," Bai Yu said with a smile." It's not this law either, but His Majesty!"”
"His Majesty has ordered the land to be taken back. No matter how unwilling those nobles are, they won't dare to disobey His Majesty's orders!”
"Even if there are some nobles who want to fish in troubled waters, the Jinyiwei has long been prepared to confiscate their property.”
After this explanation, a smile appeared on Shi Huang's face.
"Good! Good! Good!"
Qin Shi Huang laughed loudly.
"The Great Commander is really a god…No, he is really a literary star that has descended to the mortal world!!
"I admire you, Zhao Gao.”
"Commander, what do you mean by renting out the shops below?!”
Li Si continued to ask.
"Very simple."
Bai Yu said," For example, the Prime Minister has a shop in the prosperous area of Xianyang. However, this shop is useless to the Prime Minister, so it's empty. I spent money to rent this shop from the Prime Minister. Then, the right to use this shop belongs to me!"”
"This is the shop for rent."
"Great Qin's land is not only controlled by the nobles and officials, but also the shops.”
At this point, White Feather revealed a harmless smile.
