Normally, in most places, mulberry seedlings have been planted for less than three months, and normally they have not had time to produce mulberry leaves, so there is no way to calculate the silk output tax.
But Zhang Xunfu, who couldn't resist the old man's teenage madness, showed his subjective initiative. Because not all those converted from rice to mulberry are planted mulberry seedlings, there are also transplanted mature mulberry trees. It was transplanted from the place where it was originally densely planted. This part of the country harvested a season of mulberry leaves at the beginning of summer. It stands to reason that now that it is the end of summer, it is indeed time to calculate the output tax.
Zhang Xunfu's statement was so well-founded that even Gao Hanwen couldn't persuade him, so he could only let this Jiajing confidant old man do as he pleased. Those two poor families dared not reimburse their taxes even though the transplanted mulberry trees in their fields were as thick as their arms. What was even more deceiving was that after the inspector issued the document, he directly resisted the tax. It is simply that if you don’t take the road to heaven, you will fall into hell without any door.
They have organized villagers to resist taxes and attack imperial officials. Isn’t this considered a conspiracy? I don’t know where they can be so bold.
You said it was a coincidence, but later Zhang Xunfu did some accounting and found that there were only two transplanted mulberry trees in the entire city of Hangzhou, and they were all transferred and subleased this month.
At this point, Zhang Xunfu almost realized that he had been tricked and was a little angry, but more importantly, he sat down and reflected.
The ancient reformists were like this. They always wanted immediate results in everything they did, and often killed themselves. After this ordeal, Zhang Xunfu also calmed down and felt that he had to open a breakthrough from above. Because it’s time to start harvesting the first mulberry leaves of the mulberry seedlings in autumn. If the output tax cannot be collected by then, we will be in trouble. It seems that the two families that were targeted were the unlucky ones who had been withdrawn from the business to test Zhang Xunfu's tax collection efforts.
This is a breakthrough. After all, the Xu family is on the same side as the future chief minister Xu Jie, so it is easy to offend. The Zhao family had more support in changing Daodao to Sangzhongye before, so there is no need to harm others. The Shen family relied on the Weaving Bureau and left Yang Jinshui to do the trouble later, leaving only the two separate families in Hangzhou, the Zheng family and the He family.
As if he had a tacit understanding, Zhang Xunfu was just thinking about taking over the Zheng He family. Over there, Zheng Michang and He Maocai had already discussed and decided to leave as soon as possible. Not only did he leave by himself, but he also found the next one. Place, let yourself separate first and buy a house and land. This means running away together with the separated family. Most of the land in Hangzhou will still have to be sold to the Xu family.
The atmosphere in the entire Hangzhou city is now a bit weird due to Zhang Xunfu's psychic operation. But it is this strange atmosphere among the gentry that greatly invigorates the market. At least the business of setting up street stalls is much more secure.
Zhang Xunfu also knew that he was stuck in the middle and was in a dilemma, so he studied the Spring and Autumn Period behind closed doors. There was nothing he could do. Gao Hanwen had stopped himself from alerting the enemy before. It's really hard to lose face now and let junior end it for himself. As I read it, it was like a sudden inspiration came to me.
"If you want to take something, you must give it first." Zhang Xunfu just slapped his thigh and knew what to do next.
That was to auction the leases and properties of the two unlucky men. Mainly for Zheng He's two auctions. You can lower the land price and let them claim it back by declaring output tax. Although the imperial court suffered some losses in the first year, there will be a steady stream of output taxes in the future.
Zhang Xunfu still knows very well which side is the big head and the small head.
And this plan must be kept hidden from Zheng Michang and He Maocai. When it is implemented, the yellow mud will fall into the crotch. They are not representatives of the New Deal but also representatives of the New Deal.
As for why Zhang Xunfu didn’t think of letting the Yamen own the land lease to manage these two unlucky families. To be honest, as an experienced old bureaucrat, I still believe in the current unreliable taxation process rather than believing that the yamen can make some profits by itself. Letting the yamen's own people take care of public property is really a test of people's hearts and humanity. In the long run, few can stand the test.
