Great Qin Empress's Infrastructure Handbook

Chapter 132
Others agreed with Li Si's pricing of corvee wages. Even if one person paid thirty yuan, it was already a lot, and it was already a huge expenditure for the court.

Looking at their appearance, Zhao Qingrui knew that there was no need to talk about this matter, no matter how high they were, they would not agree to it. Moreover, there were indeed a lot of places where the government spent money.

Although there are many profitable projects, these are not immediately converted into money, this is a continuous process.

"Okay, don't be so sad, it's much better than usual, the corvee is only one month, you can do so much for them, those people will be grateful." Seeing that the daughter is not very happy, Ying Zheng Reluctantly said.

"Father, I'm fine, let's continue to discuss how to implement it." Zhao Qingrui said seriously, she could see that her father had already given in, otherwise she would not have let her do these things.

"This matter should first be announced to the world. Your Majesty will issue an edict to all counties." Feng Quji said calmly. Such a policy has never existed before. If Daqin's treasury is still empty, they will not let it go Zhao Qingrui went crazy.

Now, the treasury has something, and His Majesty intends to train her, so it's okay to give it a try.

"If the number of corvees is too small, can we forcibly confiscate the head of Guizhou?" Feng Jie raised a key question. The First Emperor was an infrastructure maniac, and corvettes are needed everywhere. If the number is too small, it will definitely not work.

"Then give more benefits and let Qianshou respond positively." Zhao Qingrui said after thinking for a while.

"I can't give more money and food. Does Your Highness have any good suggestions?" Li Si asked seriously.

"Those who are willing to serve corvee will be exempted from the land tax for one year next year." Zhao Qingrui mused, the most important thing in Guizhou is naturally the land.

Thinking of the things His Majesty will do at the end of the year, several people don't want to talk anymore, they can already imagine how much repercussions will be caused by that time.

"This won't work. Daqin's treasury income basically depends on various taxes." Li Si shook his head, the land tax for a year was too much.

"How about halving the land tax?" Silently counting the land tax of the first year of Qianshou in Daqin, Zhao Qingrui closed herself.

The Qintian Law stipulates that "three shi and two shi for every hectare of land", that is, three shi for fodder and two shi for straw should be paid to the state for each hectare of land.

Although the current Daqin does not have as heavy a tax as Qin II did, it is also increasing year by year.

This is what those uprisings said, the world has suffered from Qin for a long time.

The tax can be halved, which can be discussed, and several people began to discuss which part should be reduced.

At this time, Zhao Qingrui had to admire Li Si and the others. Although they were in high positions, they were not ignorant of the situation in Qianshou. On the contrary, they were very clear and understood.

Everywhere was carefully calculated by them, which also made the Qianshou people unable to live anymore, and they could continue to live, but there was no hope for the future.

How to organize corvee, they have done it many times, they are more familiar than Zhao Qingrui, the follow-up plan is determined by them.

After discussing this matter, it was already evening.

Zhao Qingrui had never been so concentrated on doing things before, and when she relaxed, she felt a burst of exhaustion, which made her feel like she didn't want to move anymore.

In comparison, although Li Si and the others look tired, they are much stronger than Zhao Qingrui. They often do these things and are already used to them.

"The widow asked the cook to cook something you like, and you can eat more later." Seeing his daughter's exhausted appearance, Ying Zheng felt distressed.

Zhao Qingrui: Dad still has time to order?

Li Si and the others were also stayed by Ying Zheng for dinner. They ate in the palace a few times. To be honest, the taste was really good.

Seeing that Li Si and the others liked to eat these meals, Zhao Qingrui's heart moved. Ironware has not been widely promoted, and the technology of ironmaking is relatively backward. It is not easy to find a useful iron pot.

It's stew, she knows a lot of recipes, but she can print them out and sell them in bookstores.

Zhao Qingrui had no appetite after eating the meals she usually liked.

Although I was discussing corvee and taxation with Li Si and the others today, she knew more about the situation of the Great Qin Qianshou from their mouths, which made her feel heavy.

The more she knew, the more urgent she wanted to change the situation in Qianshou.

"No appetite?" Ying Zheng asked softly. He could see the change in Zhao Qingrui's expression. He was optimistic about Zhao Qingrui and wanted her to be his heir. These things must be understood.

He heard a lot about the situation in Qianshou, but he didn't have much reaction. Zhao Qingrui was very well protected by him since she was a child. Even if she saw the situation in Qianshou in Beidi County, the situation in Beidi County was not bad in comparison. Relatively stable, other counties in Daqin are even worse.

"Well, father, don't eat too much greasy food." Zhao Qingrui nodded, looked at what was in the old man's bowl, and reminded her that she had finally lost some weight, and she didn't want her old man to gain weight again.

Ying Zheng: This girl is still thinking about not letting him eat meat! !

Meng Yi silently lowered his head to eat, pretending not to see it.

Li Si and the others had shock in their eyes, but they quickly covered it up, imitating Meng Yi, bowing their heads and eating quickly.

Walking out of Zhangtai Palace, Feng Quji looked at Meng Yi kindly: "Meng Shangqing, did the little princess and Your Majesty get along like this before?"

"Yes, Your Majesty dotes on her very much." Meng Yi said gently, he also put a copy of His Majesty's Weight Loss Plan [-] in his hand. Although His Majesty is sometimes lazy, he honestly followed what the little princess said. of.

Feng Quji and the others: Can we not see it?

"Your Majesty, she is smart and has her own unique insights into the affairs of the court. It is my great Qin's blessing." Feng Quji raised his brows, and now they have gradually accepted Zhao Qingrui.

So I turned a blind eye to His Majesty's thoughts.

"Yes, Your Highness has those leaders in her heart, and she wants to make Daqin stronger." Meng Yi said softly, he is the one who knows Zhao Qingrui's situation.

The Meng family supported Fusu, but in fact they also only listened to His Majesty's wishes. They would support whoever the First Emperor wanted to make black as his heir.

Moreover, Zhao Qingrui was raised by him, and she had real abilities, so he accepted it more easily than Feng Quji and the others.

"Meng Shangqing knows His Highness very well, can you tell us more about His Highness?" Feng Quji asked with a smile, now he wants to get to know Zhao Qingrui better.

"There's nothing you can't say." Meng Yi didn't refuse. The main reason was His Majesty's instruction to let him speak good things about Zhao Qingrui in front of Feng Quji and the others. As the Feng family of the old Qin nobles, they have a lot of energy in Daqin , he hoped that Feng Quji and his brothers would sincerely support Zhao Qingrui.
