Vol 5 Chapter 1138: Abbreviation Chiaki

Summer passed quickly, and the harvest season came again. After the pirate war, two months passed. In the past two months, Lu Yang went abroad and set some plans for Xicheng. Although the main ministers of Xicheng are now in Xicheng, there are still some important tasks such as Yuanzong, Zhao Zhi, Lesheng, etc., who came to Chu State to discuss some larger matters with Lu Yang.

After more than a month of discussions, they decided on many strategies for Xicheng. Xicheng's current strategy is to make friends with other countries, on the one hand, carry out cultural invasion, on the other hand, make friends with officials of various countries on many matters. Lu Yang's strategy in Qi State has given ministers a lot of inspiration, if they can infiltrate officials from various countries first. Let them all become Xicheng's subordinates, and even more respect their own government of the six countries. Now Xicheng has money, some people, and those people can give them whatever they want.

The second is the development of all aspects of Xicheng. After a series of land reforms and commercial reforms, Xicheng is now piled up with a lot of money and sufficient food. Therefore, Lu Yang completely abolished the current patient system and changed it to a recruiting system. All soldiers need to join voluntarily and will give certain benefits in life. For example, after more than ten years in person, after accumulating a certain amount of military exploits, you can obtain some fields from the court and so on.

The convenience that Lu Yang can give is also limited, but it is great news for these soldiers.

The trial of the recruiting system was accompanied by a sudden increase in military pay. General Lu Yang's pay was increased to four times the original rate, which was three times higher than that of Zhao and Qin.

The next step is the reform of the legal system. For this, Han Fei worked hard and spent half a year drafting a detailed legislation, covering the life of his brother.

Speaking of Han Feizi, it is pitiful enough. He came to Xicheng to express his ideas, but only when he arrived in Xicheng did he find that he was reasonable and took off, and no one of his ideas was the master. Even Lu Yang, who has always been one of the Mohists, has only received preferential treatment in some aspects.

But Xicheng still used Han Feizi, and Han Feizi was also very dedicated. For Xicheng, you have set a lot of practical laws.

The pitiful thing is that he just drafted a law, and Lu Yang began to reform it. It turned out that the law did not apply, and Han Feizi could only revise the legislation. As a result, after repairing and buying for two days, Lu Yang reformed again. Han Feizi can only modify it again.

He was cruel, spent half a year in retreat to build legislation, and finally wrote one. The design of this law is very comprehensive, almost stipulating the brother aspect. But just after Lu Yang reformed, the law was not adapted to it. Fortunately, Han Feizi had already prepared, leaving some gaps in advance. After Lu Yang reformed, he filled some, which is considered applicable.

Lu Yang naturally didn't read this law, but Zhao Zhi liked it very much. After he handed in comfort, he has been studying with Han Feizi, so he is quite familiar with the law. After analyzing, Zhao Zhi proposed some amendments, and this law was officially implemented.

Now that all aspects of Xicheng have matured, it doesn't take much effort to destroy other countries. But Lu Yang didn't mean to send troops.

He is not in a hurry, and Xicheng officials are not in a hurry. Most of them do not have a business. The war inevitably affected his business. So Lu Yang didn't say that they were also happy.

After everything was discussed, Lu Yang returned to Wangcheng.

Seeing that the autumn harvest in the city is about to come, he has to organize an autumn harvest.

"After the new grain is planted, it is estimated that this year’s grain output will be 7 million quintals. In addition to the 2 million quintals given to the imperial court, we have 5 million quintals left. Of these 4 million quintals are stored as military rations, the rest Leave it to the people!"

What the army needs, a hundred thousand army, if they don't fight, will give a million tons of food a year. If you fight, plus the loss of food delivery, you will need three to four million hunan. Therefore, Lu Yang can now meet his needs for one year in grain production.

After Sima Yuan finished speaking, he continued: "The taxes we collected this year are mainly used to build ships and seaports. Now we have three million taels of silver in stock. We should meet all needs before the formation of Shangdao. After the construction of Shangdao, The way we collect watermarks can be once a month. In this way, each one will have about two million taels of income!"

Lu Yang's eyes lit up when he heard this: "So many!"

Sima Yuan was originally the leader of the Sima family. Since the Lu Yangba family, there has been no official in the Sima family. When Lu Yang entered the city one day, he could see that he was quite skillful, so he helped himself deal with the problem of money and food. Although he has no control now, he is already inside Lu Yang.

Hearing his words, Sima Yuan licked his lips and said, "This is still a conservative estimate. Since our country of Qi has the largest upload, the profit is the highest and the money collected is the highest. In order to encourage caravans in various countries, we will lower the tax once it is formed. We can charge three or four times more tax!"

Lu Yang nodded when he heard this. Lu Yang was not good at taxation. The only person he knew who was good at bayonet was Song Qiwen. But after Song Qiwen was a court official, he was not good at asking someone.

So this matter was completely handed over to Sima Yuan, he really had a business heart, and he took the initiative to lower the watermark to win the caravan.

He did not speak, and continued: "In addition, it is the income of our chamber of commerce, which is the private income of adults. So it is not put into the warehouse. These silvers are about one million taels per month. In the future, the seaport will develop. Your income may exceed three million taels."

This Lu Yang didn't care, his silver was to be given to his soldiers. He now has about one million soldiers a year.

He nodded and said: "Xicheng has reformed the recruiting system, and we have to reform it here. But let's put this matter into the winter!"

Sima Yuan was taken aback when he heard the words, and Lu Yang wanted to not come to talk about these things with him. These things are all about military commanders, and Lu Yang should have said that. However, he cleverly pretended not to hear, and continued: "This year we paid about 7 million tax and silver to the court. Yingga can have so many before the winter. What else is there for the consort!" ..
