He simply dipped his fingers in wine and gestured on the table: "Every place, wherever my Tang Dynasty felt necessary, build a strong fort. Of course, these can be used to move to the people of Liaodong to move to Liaodong, and can also be used as a market for us to trade with the people of Liaodong. Even if our food is sold at a lower price, it doesn't matter. The most important thing is to keep their food and clothing tightly in the palm of my Tang Dynasty's hand." I clenched my fists suddenly and sneered in a cold and cold manner.

Uncle Li raised his eyebrows, stood up, and started again, wandering around the couch, while continuing to follow my thoughts: "The various tribes of the Marine people have no fixed place, they have a plate of scattered sand and no farming. The food is extremely limited. My Tang Dynasty sold grain with them, exchanged for their cow gates, furs, and mountain goods. The bigger the transaction, the more grain and cloth they get. With tea and liquor, who would still be willing to live in the past lifestyles that were difficult to eat or spend? In this way, their dependence on my Tang Dynasty will be even more. If they dare to have a second heart in the future, hehehe..." Uncle Li smiled so hard that his eyes were twitching: "A fort built with bricks and stones is not a wooden fence-style earthen city that these savages can get down in a few days? Humph, the abundant products in the Central Plains are beyond the right place in the world, and the things of each tribe are not allowed to be used to me."

Uncle Li turned around and squeezed at me: "But they are used to eating the things sold to them in the Tang Dynasty and holding their mouths, and they will feel that a day is indispensable. At that time, will it be flattened and rounded by the Tang Dynasty? Hahaha... Mart, there is no text. After the long-term assimilation of the people of Liaodong, will there still be Mart people in a hundred years?"

I said seriously: "It must be gone. By then, no matter in Liaodong, Liaobei, or even on this peninsula, there were only my subjects of the Tang Dynasty."

Uncle Li sat next to the bed, helped the table and raised the wine cup in his hand: "Come on, son-in-law, drink this cup. Tomorrow, you and I will meet Da Borong, the leader of the Marine Man, first settle him, and then clean up the others one by one."

Bang, after a big cup of wine, I frowned for a long time before I spitting out a sip of wine. Uncle Li seemed to have something difficult to solve here, and gently tapped on the table. "My father-in-law, why bother?" I asked with a look of my head.

"Not proper, there is something that's very inappropriate." Uncle Li waved his head and turned around and smiled at me.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－-

"What's wrong?" I squatted in front of Uncle Li and asked curiously. "If it's inappropriate, it's still about the problem of land. I'm just telling you that the land of Liaodong can solve my worry about the annexation of the land of the Tang Dynasty for more than a hundred years. Now that I think about it carefully, this free transaction is a huge flaw."

"My father-in-law is very worried." I was stunned and agreed. It seemed that Uncle Li did not lose his mind while narcissistic, he was very clear-headed, and understood what he was doing. In places like Liaodong, if land transactions were implemented, there would only be one situation, that is, the rapid emergence of the large landlords and the large manor economy. A large amount of land would be concentrated in various Guanzhong, Shandong, and the wealthy families and nobles through various means. In this way, the people would also have no land to cultivate in more than ten years.

However, I have noticed one thing that I have long noticed. In the early Tang Dynasty, on the basis of agricultural restoration and development, handicrafts and commerce also developed and flourished. Industry and commerce developed rapidly, especially the textile industry was very developed. China's silk and other items were sold to West Asia along the famous Silk Road. The ceramic industry in the Tang Dynasty was famous at that time, especially the gorgeousness of Tang Sancai pottery and the superb skills of plastic craftsmanship, were all treasures in my country's art treasure house. The transition from pottery to porcelain was completed in the Tang Dynasty. The porcelain in Jingdezhen, Jiangxi Province was known as fake jade.

Not only has the official handicraft industry made great progress, but the number of private handicraft industries has also increased, including textiles, mining, porcelain, bronzes, as well as the manufacturing of paper, pens, inkstones, etc. Not only has it formed an industry, but the production technology has also improved greatly. For example, in the textile industry, the silk of Songzhou, Yizhou brocade, and Yangzhou brocade robes are famous all over the country. Due to the national unity and the circulation of goods is becoming increasingly active, many commercial towns have been formed throughout the country. Chang'an East City has "three hundred and twenty lines, four hundred mansions, and all the treasures are gathered." The late Tang Dynasty commercial development has developed compared with the early stages. The city of Hangzhou, Jiangnan, has "20 miles in parallel, and Kaisi San

"Due to the numerous commodities and the development of transactions, the foundation for industrial and commercial tax revenue. After the middle of the Tang Dynasty, finances were tight. At this time, the levy of salt, tea, wine tax, mining tax, interstellar tax, and borrowing measures were all based on the development of the industrial and commercial economy. The levy of tea, wine tax, mining tax, interstellar tax, and borrowing measures were all based on the development of the industrial and commercial economy... In addition, the shipbuilding and smelting industries in the Tang Dynasty were also very developed. In line with this, the prosperity of commercial commerce in the Tang Dynasty and the development of foreign trade. At that time, there were many commercial cities of varying sizes in the country, including Yangzhou, Yizhou and other cities

The country's important commodity distribution center. Guangzhou was the largest maritime trade at that time. There were endless exchanges between China and foreign merchant ships. The water transportation in the mainland was even more busy. A minister once told Uncle Li: "The world is full of Tianjin, and the boats are gathered, and the city is connected by Ba, Han, and the front is Fujian, Yue, seven lakes, three rivers and five lakes, and the rivers and Luo Rivers are also included in Huaihai. The huge ships of Hongbo, ten ships, and thousands of ships are exchanged and traded, and the taste is forever."

Due to the development of industry and commerce in the Tang Dynasty, the tax types and tax items of industrial and commercial tax were also increasing, laying a material foundation for the country to increase its fiscal revenue. In the 18th year of Zhenguan, nearly half of the country's treasury income in one year was obtained from commercial tax. Of course, war reparations cannot be included, otherwise, the war reparations obtained over the past year alone had reached, or even exceeded the treasury income in the two years of the Tang Dynasty.

I remember when I was in school, I saw a comment on ancient economy. I forgot about how many years it was AD. However, it was the Northern Song Dynasty. At that time, the total tax revenue of the Northern Song Dynasty was more than 70 million guan, of which the two taxes in agriculture were only a little more than 20 million guan, accounting for only three percent of the tax. The industrial and commercial tax was close to 50 million guan, and 70% of the total tax revenue of the state. The main body of the national fiscal revenue was no longer agriculture, but industry and commerce. The Song Dynasty had already emerged from agricultural civilization. During the Song Dynasty, China's agricultural society was already beginning to move towards the industrial and commercial society.

"Your Majesty, my son-in-law has two strategies to limit land transactions, but the terms and conditions require more Shangquan. In addition, it takes a long time." I licked my mouth and looked at Uncle Li, my heart was full of anxiety. I wonder if this powerful medicine could make Uncle Li agree.

"Oh? Let's talk, I can think about it." Uncle Li was not as excited as before, calmed down and looked at me and said.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－-

"The land tax system, the main objects of taxation are fields, second, and third, Ding. Fields are goods, and households and Ding are people. The land rents, tuitions, land rents, households and Dings in the Han Dynasty, land rents, households and households in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and rents and mediocre taxes in the Tang Dynasty are all in parallel with taxes and taxes on people. I wonder if what my son-in-law said is right?" I sucked my brain and started to recall the tax systems I had learned. We are not very familiar with, but when I was in college, I was still involved in all subjects, and I had half a bottle of water to sway everything.

Uncle Li pondered for a moment and nodded: "This is the reason."

"However, my Tang Dynasty's business is prosperous, and half of the taxes in the world are drawn in it. I wonder if it is right?" I blinked and said.

Uncle Li continued to nod, he must not know what I wanted to say.

I gestured in front of Uncle Li with my hand, and quietly muttered in his ear for a while. Uncle Li stood up and looked at me without saying a word for a long time.

I nodded, "My father-in-law, you also know that the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty was not available in the previous dynasty, and handicrafts were everywhere. Merchants could sell anything to profit, and handicraftsmen could also profit by selling the goods to the people. But farmers only have one thing, that is, acre of land. According to the best paddy fields in the Tang Dynasty, a mu of land can produce three stones per mu. Ninety percent of the ten percent of the people in the Tang Dynasty are farming, but what they get? The tax paid is only half of the national income, and the industry and businessmen are mostly only 10% of the people in the Tang Dynasty, and the wealth they get is also nearly half, and it is growing year by year. I wonder if what the son-in-law said is right?"

Uncle Li's eyes flashed and did not look at me. He squatted on the couch and frowned, as if he was considering an extremely difficult mystery. I sat down on the side, took a sip of wine, and continued to brew, hoping to dig out the most suitable tax system for the Tang Dynasty from my memory. Its functions are two: first, control land annexation, second, encourage the development of industry and commerce, and strive to shift the focus of the tax on the Tang Empire to industry and commerce. In this way, farmers who have lost their land can also have the possibility of survival. Only in the long run can they maintain long-term stability in the Tang Dynasty. This is what I need to convince Uncle Li, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who has always tried to make the fortune of the Tang Dynasty permanent.
