Chapter 452 [The heart is not cruel, the country is unstable]
Gu Tianya heard that everyone was sad, but he had no intention of being soft-hearted.
"Other than that, there is no other good idea. It is not because I am cruel, but because I am forced to do so. Maybe I will cancel this policy in twenty years, but I must persist within twenty years. Otherwise, the Goguryeo people themselves will first
I’m going to starve myself to death.”
He paused for a moment, then sighed and added: "Although I have positioned everyone's initial class as second-class civilians, I have left a path for them to be promoted to civilians. If they don't do this, they will not be able to change their laziness.
.How can a nation have a future if the entire nation is lazy?”
"This is impossible, we Goguryeo people are the most hard-working nation in the world!"
"Haha, do you believe this?"
Gu Tianya sneered twice, with a questioning tone in his voice, and said, "Miss An, let me ask you, how many people are still farming honestly in Goguryeo now?"
An Yanbing was obviously stunned.
Gu Tianya had a sarcastic look on his face and said slowly: "Although I occupied Goguryeo, I did not confiscate the land. Instead, I formulated a policy to support the people and allocated a large amount of manpower and material resources from the Central Plains. For example, officials who are good at people's livelihood have been working for half a year.
Time has been constantly being dispatched here, and for example, thousands of carts of crop seeds with extremely high yields have been sent..."
"You regard me as an intruder, but I do things sincerely. Miss An, let me ask you, is there any intruder in the world who can do what I do?"
An Yan spoke in a cold voice and said: "If you leave aside the identity of the invader, you can be called a benevolent person rarely seen in the past. And the policies you implemented in Goguryeo can also be called benevolent government that has never been seen before."
Gu Tianya sighed and asked again: "But what does benevolent government get in exchange?"
An Yanbing looked ashamed and was obviously speechless.
She was speechless, but Gu Tianya spoke in a deep voice and said coldly: "As everyone knows, my roots are in Youyun, which is not rich and the people have not yet lived a good life. Despite this, I still sent a large number of officials to come,
The intention was to develop people's livelihood and improve Goguryeo's backwardness. Unfortunately, the good intentions were misconstrued."
"There are also thousands of carts of crop seeds, which can satisfy the sowing needs of the entire Goguryeo for one season. As long as your people can sow seeds for one season, there will be enough food for food and drink in the next season."
"But Miss An, you have also seen how many places in Goguryeo are farming now? How hateful, they actually eat the grain seeds."
Gu Tianya became angrier and angrier, his voice became colder, and he suddenly shouted angrily: "Obviously I have sent millions of stones of food, and I am giving porridge everywhere every day. Anyone who feels hungry can receive it for free.
Giving porridge. But why, why do they still eat the grain seeds?"
With a bang, Gu Tianya punched the wall hard.
His tone was cold, he took a deep breath, and said: "My Youyun states are not rich, and the people under my command have not yet lived a very prosperous life. However, when they heard that I wanted to develop Goguryeo, they almost
Every family is tightening their belts to support me. Millions of stones of grain are what countless people squeezed out through their teeth. Thousands of carts of grain are what every family put together..."
"This is their sincerity, but it was all in vain when it was sent here."
"It was all wasted, all wasted by the Goguryeo people."
When Gu Tianya said this, his face turned livid, and he gritted his teeth and said: "For the past six months, I have been holding back my anger. I watched the grain being wasted, and I never took any action to interfere. I just wanted to see,
Where on earth did the Goguryeo people seek death?"
"Finally, my patience has reached its limit. Because I have never seen you regret it."
An Yanbing cried loudly.
The octogenarian and others looked bitter.
…
Gu Tianya's eyes were firm and he said solemnly: "Goguryeo's class division policy is already an unchangeable fact. I have told you before that I will establish the country in three months and change the name of Goguryeo to
The province of Goguryeo will be established, and the policy of class division will be implemented at that time. In other words, the Goguryeo people still have three months of good life..."
He paused for a moment and said with a sneer: "In these three months, I will continue to provide soup. No matter how difficult it is for my Youyun states, I will always allocate food here. I promise not to let it go.
If any Goguryeo starve to death, I will keep them fed for another three months."
An Yanbing cried sadly and said quietly: "But after three months, you won't care about them anymore, right?"
Gu Tianya snorted coldly and said: "If you continue to care about them, will you let me drag them to death? There are millions of people in Goguryeo, do they all have to rely on me to feed them? How much food is needed for such a large population?
I can support them for half a year and a year, or even support them for two or three years. But Miss An, can I support them for five or ten years?"
An Yanbing burst into tears and nodded: "Yes, people have to save themselves."
"You are right, I just force them to save themselves."
Gu Tianya's tone finally softened, and he said with emotion: "After the classification of classes, the treatment of second-class people will be very low. For example, farming output requires 60% tax. Another example is status, which is only lower than that of slaves and criminals.
The people are slightly better. As inferior people, they must bow when they see civilians. If they see good people, they need to kneel down and kowtow..."
"Human beings are very strange creatures. No one wants to be a bitch. If they don't want to be a bitch, then they must work hard to advance their status, from a second-class citizen to a commoner, and then from a commoner to a commoner.
Good people."
"The tax rate for second-class people is 60%, and they are not allowed to study or do business. The only way out is to farm. If you don't farm, you will starve to death."
"But after you upgrade to a civilian, the tax rate will be reduced to 40%. Children at home will also be allowed to study, but they will need to pay tuition fees."
"Only when you upgrade to become a good citizen, you will enjoy the best treatment. The first is the tax rate, which will directly become a 10% tax. In addition, your children will study for free. They will also be able to participate in the selection of officials, so that their children can change their destiny.
