Zhu Wu only shook his head. He knew that this was his cheap father's blabbering personality acting up again. He couldn't be bothered to respond and said,
"You should drink the Fat Otaku Happy Drink.”
"Then tell me, what can you do?”
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was also somewhat unconvinced. How could a person who only talked know how difficult it was to do real things?
Although this young man was knowledgeable, he had never personally planted land or been a farmer.
He lacked a sense of steadiness.
This was one of his weaknesses…
A youth was still a youth after all…
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head.
However, this was enough. It was already unexpected that a youth could come up with a genius system like the cabinet system. He could not ask for too much.
He still needed experience.
In the future, he would arrange for him to be an official in a local area. He would see the sufferings of the people and the difficulty of doing things. He believed that there would be some improvements.
At least for now, he was still a teenager when it came to practical matters.
"Actually, there are ways.”Zhu Wu said casually.
In fact, he was also willing to see the lives of the commoners live better. In his previous life, he was not born well, so he naturally could understand the hardships of the commoners.
Therefore, he would try his best to help the farmers who farmed their fields.
However, the power of one person was ultimately powerless and could not affect the world.
"Oh? What do you think?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was a little suspicious. After all, improving the peasants was different from improving the system of officials. It involved the interests of various parties. It was simply a myriad of things.
It could be said that it was even more difficult than getting rid of the position of Prime Minister!
Even if he had been a farmer and became an emperor, he could not think of any good ideas.
This young man actually had another idea?
At this moment, Zhu Biao also hurriedly looked at Zhu Wu. It was definitely a big problem to improve the lives of the farmers.
Those who could make achievements in such matters would leave a heavy mark in the history books.
Whether this Zhu Wu was a genius or not, it could be verified now.
Now, Zhu Wu took a sip of tea and said leisurely,"It's simple to say.”
"Hmm? Which eight words?"
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao's eyes were focused on him.
Zhu Wu's eyes lit up as he looked at the two of them and slowly said,
"Clear the land, spread the people into the mu!"
"Clear the land and spread the people into the mu?"
Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang looked at each other in confusion.
They could understand why they had to clear the land.
The land in the world was often in the hands of the rich and powerful. Therefore, the officials below did not dare to offend them and would help them conceal the amount of land so that the taxes could not be collected.
But the court needed money, where would the money come from?
They could only extract it from the common people.
Therefore, no matter how light the taxes were, these good policies would only fall into the hands of the big landowners. The commoners would not get anything.
The final result was that the people who occupied 30% of the land in the world had to pay 80% of the money and grain of the imperial court!
And this was also a large part of the reason for the demise of the dynasties.
Therefore, clearing the land had already begun at the beginning of the founding of the country.
To be honest, Zhu Yuanzhang was already very surprised that Zhu Wu could say this.
But what did this mean?
It seemed to be very important.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be listed alongside the important policy of clearing land.
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Biao, and Zhu Biao immediately understood. His father didn't know either…
However, he was a little embarrassed to say that he didn't know, so he needed a sidekick.
He smiled bitterly and asked,"
"Cousin, can you explain in detail what this means?”
Zhu Wu smiled and said," Hehe, this is simple. It's just one point. Abolish the head tax and set a tax number instead. Spread this amount of silver into the fields!”
"From now on, those with more land will pay more taxes, and those with less land will pay less taxes!”
"In this way, if you don't pay taxes according to the population, then naturally no one can evade taxes.”
This policy was the pinnacle of development in the feudal era.
In the feudal era, taxes were extremely messy, but for farmers, they were mainly divided into corvee and tax.
Regardless of whether you have land or not, you have to pay the tax.
This was very unfair to the farmers who had little heaven and earth.
Those big landowners only had a few people in their families, not to mention the slaves in their families. In the end, the taxes they paid were the same as those of ordinary poor people. To them, it was just a drop in the ocean.
However, for farmers, it was a life-threatening situation. They would directly empty their family's assets. In times of famine, they would even have to sell their children.
Now that the tax was abolished, just looking at the land tax, these drawbacks could naturally be abolished.
