Chapter Five Hundred and Thirty-First Income According to Work, Needs, and Capital(1/2)

There has never been absolute fairness in the world, no matter when.

Jin Lian's question made everyone stare at the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty in a daze.

What is the most fair way of distribution, and what is the most reasonable way of distribution?

Society has produced division of labor, and therefore the fruits of social labor. How these labor achievements are given to everyone in the Ming Dynasty is the core of the issue of Jin Lian.

In other words, Jin Lian is asking where the Ming Dynasty should go.

Zhu Qiyu looked at the slightly confused eyes of the ministers and thought seriously.

This is the choice of the road.

As Yu Qian said, when the emperor killed King Jili, the emperor became a cliff behind him and could only move forward without retreating.

The distribution method determines the social system. The Ming Dynasty stood at a historical fork, and the ministers walking at this fork were all confused.

Zhu Qiyu thought for a long time before speaking: "Modi fantasized about a world of great harmony, that is, love both invincible and in love, and love others as much as you love yourself."

"In Mozi's theory, giving all the fruits of labor to those in need is a very fair way of distribution, distribution on demand."

"During the Hongwu period, there were terrible households who were supported by the whole arsenal. Many children grew up eating a hundred families and wearing a hundred families. Their parents died of war, bandits, and famine. They were raised by their neighbors to adulthood."

If you translate the Baijia Fried and Baijia Clothing, it is socialized maintenance.

The Ming Dynasty once explored this model in terms of system, but with Emperor Taizu Gao's Longzhu Guest, this strange household gradually became a place of filth and filth.

Those female households who live in Boai Township seem to be socially raising them, but they become places where the thin horses in Yangzhou purchase goods, and become a bloody and cruel stripping pattern.

Some wealthy households have become disparate households.

Originally, the court's policy was to treat the bad households with preferential treatment, a system that pursued fairness and distribution on demand, but after a short period of time, it was broken all over the ground and full of chaos.

Many wealthy households who drink famous wines such as Mao, Wu, Jian and Taste the Dragon Tuan fragrant tea have transformed into terrible households who do not pay taxes. Not only do they not pay taxes, they also constantly merge land, occupy land for themselves, and enslave the people on the land.

"Do you distribute it as needed?" Jin Lian was stunned for a moment and shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, that's unrealistic."

Zhu Qiyu immediately nodded and said, "That's right, that's unrealistic."

"So the fairest thing is distribution on demand, the most reasonable thing is distribution on work, and distribution completely according to capital will accelerate land annexation, and the court's expenses are getting bigger and bigger, but the tax base is getting worse and worse, and in the end, the income is not enough, and the east wall is being demolished all day long to make up for the west wall."

"Disassemble and repair the house will collapse naturally."

Jin Lian understands it.

Your Majesty is a very pragmatic person. He knows that he can't do things, he can say, ask, and work hard in that direction, but he is definitely not proposed today. If he implements it tomorrow, he will see results the day after tomorrow.

In actual governance, we always choose the most suitable government orders for the current situation so that the new policy can be truly implemented.

In the public opinion of the Ming Dynasty, Your Majesty actually has a bad reputation that is very meticulous.

The treasury and national treasury, the transport treasury and the Ministry of Revenue always fight when they meet, and the quarrel is overturned. It seems that the emperor is greedy and the Ministry of Revenue loves money.

But can it be possible to keep in mind the food, clothing, housing and transportation of nearly ten million people in the Ming Dynasty?

Your Majesty makes money like flowing water, spending money like opening a gate to release water. Any movement will be nearly one million national treasury, just like a hundred rivers reaching the sea, and you can’t even see a splash of water.

Zhu Qiyu continued: "Mozi talks about non-aggression and love, which means distribution according to demand. We must allocate according to demand in some areas."

"For example, those who are fearless and have lost their ability to work on the battlefield will have to raise them."

"For example, the officials and ministers of Beijing hold huge powers and must distribute them as needed. Otherwise, without even having to speak, someone will deliver a lot of money, money, and land to their hands."

"These small-scale distribution on demand are within the control of the court, but in most cases, we have to talk about distribution on work."

"Adhere to the main method of distribution according to work, to protect the people from the labor remuneration they deserve, and to insist on getting income from labor, which is also one of the benevolence, righteousness, etiquette and laws of the court."

"Distribution on demand, allocation on capital, and the parallel distribution system is the most suitable way for the Ming Dynasty at present."

"If someone insists on being a traitor in the family, I will be willing to bear this infamy."

A single man and a thief is the most insulting word to an emperor.

A single man means being arrogant, one word is to be arbitrary and arbitrary.

The thief is to compete with the people for profit, and he is very particular about it, and he is a thief who steals money from the hands of the people.

For example, Emperor Xuan of Han once called Emperor Wu of Han Liu Che a traitor who was a man of the people. He refused to listen to advice and insisted on doing his own thing, and he made a decision to sue the war. The official business was all about competing for profit with the people and stealing the money from the people.

This is Zhu Qiyu's determination. He is not afraid of being scolded, and he has the courage to rebel. It will be over if he sees whether he, the emperor, kills him or not.

As soon as Zhu Qiyu finished speaking, the eyes of Shi Heng, the Marquis of Wuqing, immediately lit up. He smelled the military medal!

Shi Heng's eyes soon dimmed. Who could be so stupid when Daming, who had to pay taxes three times to rebel?

Distribution is a big topic. Zhu Qiyu did not talk about how to distribute in depth, but just drew a line in the general direction.

Because distribution is not justified, distribution is the interests that have been divided up long ago.

No matter who the knife falls on his head, it will be a blunt knife that cuts the flesh, causing pain and pain.

It's done, not said.

Zhu Qiyu only pointed out one direction, and this direction was exactly what the ministers needed.

Zhu Qiyu talked about distribution briefly, and the salt and iron meeting quickly returned to the normal agenda.

"Your Majesty, Governor Li Xian of Yingtian reported that he asked for an order to cancel the salt invoice. I think it is inappropriate." Wang Hu, the doctor of the Ministry of Revenue Branch, talked about the second Ministry of Revenue Affairs.

Zhu Qiyu and Zhu criticized Li Xian's memorial and revoked some of the salt citations within the scope.

Li Xian is not a talkative person. He hopes to abolish the salt induction and establish a supply-side reform of salt and iron, imitate the affairs of King Xiang in Guizhou, and carry out a comprehensive official operation of salt.

This knife was chopped on the head of Lianghuai salt merchants. Lianghuai salt merchants had expected that this knife would sooner or later, so many of them were transforming, such as their eyes were looking at the ocean.

You can spend a lot of money in sacks when staying at home. What motivation is there to go overseas?

However, the new policy of the Emperor of Ming Dynasty was unstoppable, and they had struggled. They found that the more intense the struggle was, the more His Majesty had, so they simply chose to obey.

Zhu Qiyu believes that the time to cancel the salt intake is ripe.

This opportunity is multifaceted. For example, Jing'an Province in Hetao Region is gradually stabilizing, Anmin Canal has been put into use, the arable land area in Hetao Region is growing rapidly, and grain output is growing rapidly, enough to supply grain for border areas.

There is nothing wrong with abolishing salt induction and changing it to supply-side reform.

"Tell me the reason." Zhu Qiyu looked at Wang Hu and said seriously.

In fact, Wang Hu was carrying out a refutation. After Zhu's memorial was sent to the Ministry of Revenue, he was stopped by the Ministry of Revenue and asked for an order.

However, Wang Hu chose the timing and location for the refutation of the matter in the exorcism and refutation, and chose Juxian Pavilion, a place with extremely free speech. After the day of the day, the time when the rest had just ended was to discuss the proposal, not to refutation.

"It's very simple, because the border needs to use grain." Wang Hu said a very reasonable nonsense.

Wang Hu explained: "In the entire Datong, Xuanfu, Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningjing'an area, the food provided by salt turbulence accounts for more than 30%. If the salt turbulence is rashly abolished, the tax pressure in the Hetao area will inevitably be increased."

"Jing'an is newly restored, and everything is in trouble, and it is consumed. If the salt intake is cancelled and replaced with supply, then Datong, Xuanfu, Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia, Jing'an will inevitably have high food and low salt. I think I will wait."

"Nan Ya is indeed ready, but Bian Fang is not ready."

Wang Hu's reason was that the regional development was not unbalanced, which led to the urgent need for the cancellation of salt stolen goods in the South Ya, and the border areas are not yet self-sufficient. Once the salt stolen goods are abolished, it will inevitably lead to the rise of prices in the border areas.

Jiang Yuan also agreed with great agreement: "If we stop salt induced, we must find a way to supplement the source of 30% of the food, which will inevitably increase taxes."

"And almost all prices in the Ming Dynasty are still based on food, and people regard food as the most important thing, Your Majesty."

Zhu Qiyu's index finger kept tapping on the table, which meant that the emperor was thinking.

At this time, Juxian Pavilion was very quiet. Outside the window, there was a northwest wind whistling and the sound of snowflakes flying and tearing, which reached the warm pavilion.

"It's reasonable, bring Li Xian's memorial and I'll keep it first." Zhu Qiyu took it back.

The emperor's words are as good as hell. It is indeed embarrassing that the speed of his rebellion is so fast.

But Zhu Qiyu is not afraid of this.

Since what the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War makes sense, it will naturally take back the life.

The chaos of government and chaotic actions are a major event for the monarch to lose his morality and the ministers to lose their morality. The price paid by the government is the inner and the hearts of the people. If you take back the fate, you will lose the emperor's face.

Wang Hu hesitated for a moment, did not take out the memorial, and said blankly: "I did not bring it with you, and I will send it to the Silijian tomorrow."

"Didn't bring it?" Zhu Qiyu looked at Wang Hu, and said without taking it seriously: "Then I'll send it to the magistrate tomorrow."

Your Majesty is willing to sacrifice his face, but the court officials cannot let His Majesty lose face. The king is humiliating his ministers and dies. This is the way to be a minister.

After the meeting ended, Wang Hu planned to chat with Xing'an, the Sili Supervisor. This is a matter of reclaiming fate and cannot be included in the file.

How to ensure that Your Majesty is wise and unharmed and that his merits are perfect is the etiquette of a minister.

The salt and iron meeting was held until the evening was approaching, and the Ming officials summarized the financial affairs of the Ming Dynasty in the fifth year of Jingtai.

The construction of Shijing Factory, Sheng Factory, Liuzhi Factory and other officialdoms, the storage of Baoyuan Bureau, the acceptance of Jingtai Tongbao, and the transmission of silver coins, all kinds of things were all over the place, and they were only stopped until dusk.

Hu Yi kept squinting his eyes to rest in the second half, as if he was old and lacked energy.

When His Majesty said the meeting was over, Hu Yi stretched and planned to leave the seat.

"Yu Shaobao, Shangshu Hu, please stay." Zhu Qiyu had long seen Hu Yi, a pretender, pretending to be confused.

Zhu Qiyu really couldn't see whether Hu Yi was sleepy, whether it was really sleepy or fake sleepy, so he simply kept Hu Yi and asked in person.

Zhu Qiyu thought for a while and said, "Take it out."

Hu Yi closed his sleeves and shook his head and said, "Your Majesty! You will be included in history in the future. After reading these, you will be scolded for changing history!"
