Ordinary people can borrow food from them if they are not hungry …
With the interest rolling up, it won’t be long before these people find it impossible to pay off these loans with their annual income.
In this case, they can give these landlords and gentry the land they can survive …
Slowly, there will be more and more ordinary people living and having to give the land to the landlords and gentry, from an ordinary people to being attached to the landlords and gentry.
Of course, not all of these ordinary people who lost their land are willing to be tenants …
Those who don’t want to be tenants will gradually become murderers and bandits …
In a word, further increasing people’s taxes can solve the problem, but it brings two bigger and more serious problems to the court … Land merger and banditry may turn into refugees everywhere …
A officialdom middleman magistrate knows very well that once this situation appears in Jiangnan, it will gradually become the unstable foundation when several northern provinces moved the big dynasty bit by bit …
However, although there are many problems, these problems are all important to them
Not only that, land merger has brought them huge benefits, just like an attractive bait, which makes their eyes constantly shoot out a pair of hot eyes
As soon as the sound of tax increase sounded a big approval, it went to the county magistrate’s ear …
A county magistrate who doesn’t have Taiduoli opposes the continued tax increase even if he wants the court to do something in the future.
But he was alone in the big approval, and he had no choice but to agree.
Otherwise, don’t say if you can continue to sit in the county magistrate’s position, maybe even your life will be lost.
The county magistrate didn’t guess wrong. After the tax increase article was taken home by these landlords and gentry and told everyone in the jurisdiction, many faces showed a look of despair directly.
But those landlords and gentry who think about their own interests can ignore these.
The people are willing to pay, but they are not willing to pay. They directly take the domestic thugs to the house to forcibly levy grain.
There is no food of value to pay for …
In less than a month, the provinces in the south of the Yangtze River were in a foul atmosphere by these landlords and gentry.
If you are careful, you will surely find that beggars in various counties and towns are suddenly ten times more than before.
You can’t see the phenomenon of selling children and girls until the year of disaster, but this good weather has appeared …
Of course, these are all unknown to Emperor Chongzhen, and courtiers dare not tell Chongzhen.
Because at this moment Chongzhen has an unprecedented dependence on the army and.
Infatuation …
No sooner had the imperial court increased taxes than Chongzhen ordered the start of recruiting and expanding the army …
The threat of a strong army in Chongzhen’s eyes can be solved.
And this is also a reason why the Tiger and Leopard Army has been developing and growing.
But he ignored another problem … Wei Zheng’s investment in the tiger and leopard army is really great, and whenever he invests in the army, it increases rather than decreases.
However, apart from the military defense, there is another investment that is still very large after the army, that is, ordinary people …
Through these inputs, we can win the hearts of the people and let all the people support themselves.
At present, Chongzhen not only ignored this aspect, but also set up a new army to further strengthen the widowhood of the people, forcing them to ruin their lives …
Can be sure that it won’t be long before Chongzhen will completely lose the hearts of the people …
After losing people’s hearts, even if he has more troops, he can’t stop resistance from all sides.
When emperor Chongzhen was in urgent nee of expanding that new army with his obsession with it.
As far away as Beijing, Wei Zheng is looking at Luo with a sneer. She has just sent information …
When he saw that Chongzhen had cut the people to the point of belligerence, the defender said, "Emperor Chongzhen must have been driven crazy by us …"
"So continue to go even if there is no butch army, he will die in his own hands … he is forcing Jiangnan people to make it against …"
Chapter seven hundred and ninety-three Add a fire.
The more you know about Wei Zheng, the more clear it is that Wei Zheng is a very simple and aboveboard person.
Before the Wei Zheng, Luo’s sexuality began to be relaxed slowly.
Just after Wei Zheng’s words were finished, Luo’s self-cultivation was not at all nervous. He said, "It’s true that the officials forced the people to rebel … because the imperial court increased taxes, many people became all of them overnight."
"Don’t have enough to eat. Those private salt traders aiming at ordinary people are not as good as before …"
"In this case, many smugglers sell smuggled salt, and at the same time, they also engage in the smuggling business …"
"Not only that, but many people become one overnight. All the people will join them when they see the smuggling of smuggled salt and the smuggling of goods …"
"According to the latest statistics of Wei, there are at least 30,000 ordinary people who have joined the ranks of smuggling smuggled salt and bandits in the past month … every county in the south of the Yangtze River has so many bandits and thieves, which is malodorous …"
When I heard this, Wei Zheng’s sarcastic smile was even more calm and said, "This is just the beginning … From now on, if the court’s annual tax revenue is so much, the people who become bandits because they can’t live will become more …"
"In the long run, it is still very rich, and several provinces in the south of the Yangtze River will become bandits and refugees everywhere …"
"When the time comes, he has worked so hard to form a new imperial army in Chongzhen, but before he comes to deal with me, the butch army will have to face bandits in a dime a dozen and then be dragged out by these bandits completely …"
"In this way, after the completion of the expansion of the butch army, I need two military forces, so I can take advantage of the opportunity to fight the court in the south. I won’t be caught off guard. I have worked so hard to form more than 100,000 new troops in Chongzhen and destroy Chongzhen’s hope one by one …"
At this time, even if the wily Locke raises a gender, he can’t help but start to sigh with emotion that Wei Zheng had decided
Even if an ancient man wanted to break his head, he could not have thought that breaking a country’s finances and taxes could also bring a devastating blow to a country.
The WeiZheng words just say that finish Locke raises a gender and can’t help but sigh with emotion "Wang Weiying … I didn’t expect that a small decision made by you a few months ago could bring such great benefits … I didn’t even think about it before …"
Wei Zheng’s face didn’t show too much smile because of Luo’s sexual compliment.
Instead, Locke raises a gender and looks at a face of concern and says …
"This is really good for us to defeat the imperial court and seize Jiangnan, but the destructive power it produces is also very great … Wang is now worried that when we take over Jiangnan in the future, Jiangnan will be destroyed by the imperial court like several northern provinces, and it will take us a lot of time and money to recover …"
"The king want to have any good way to keep these benefits at the same time as far as possible to reduce the war damage to the whole jiangnan …"
What disappoints Wei Zheng is that he didn’t see the slightest answer he wanted from Luo’s cultivation …
