Chapter 463

When Zhang Hao heard Xu Jie's words, he also understood what was going on. This time he had touched too many people's interests. Those who have land would definitely not let him go so easily. They should beware of themselves.

"Hao'er, you have to pay attention to this matter. Also, Hao'er, what do you want to do? I have never understood. Why do you give the people land? Planting them for free is not possible. There has been no such thing in all dynasties!" Xu Jie sat there and continued to ask Zhang Hao.

He also wanted to know what Zhang Hao was going to do and why he had to share the land with the people.

"Father-in-law, why don't you want to do it? I just thought that the people did not have land, so they rebel. In fact, the cost of suppressing the rebellion is very high. This cost is not as good as land for the people to plant. In this way, if the people have food to eat, there will be no rebellion. It's that simple!" Zhang Hao sat there and explained to Xu Jie.

"Hao'er, you want to do this, but those vassal kings and landlords may not want to do this. Even I don't agree to do this in my heart. Although I know that your approach is right and your idea is for the Ming Dynasty, but when it comes to personal interests, who do you think you care?" Xu Jie sat there, looking at Zhang Hao and asked.

"I know, I didn't ask anyone to do this, but the land confiscated in the future will not be sold, and can only be distributed to the people. This is also the emperor's intention. We will not rob the land, but the land confiscated is originally from the court, and it's enough not to sell the court!" Zhang Hao sat there and continued to say to Xu Jie.

"Hey, they are just worried about this. They are worried that the emperor will arrange for them to confiscate the land at that time!" Xu Jie continued to say to Zhang Hao.

"Impossible? There is a Censorate!" Zhang Hao looked up at Xu Jie and said, pouring tea for Xu Jie at the same time.

"Well, you know it yourself, how could it be impossible? You kid served as the commander of the Jinyiwei and arrested many officials. Did they really commit a big deal? Just if you want to deal with them, then they are guilty. Whoever becomes an official has nothing to do?" Xu Jie continued to say to Zhang Hao.

"Father-in-law, then, did you say I was wrongly arrested? Are those officials really corrupt? Is it really because of impeachment of me?" Zhang Hao immediately looked at Xu Jie and said.

"Well, of course I know that they are from those vassal kings, and the emperor must deal with them!" Xu Jie nodded and said.

"That's it!" Zhang Hao nodded. Since you know everything, what else can you say?

"But. Do other people know? Do other landlords know? They will only say that you were catching people randomly!" Xu Jie continued to say to Zhang Hao.

"Then let them say that if the people don't rebel, they won't be able to rebel. Moreover, as long as the people have land, who will follow them to rebel?" Zhang Hao said with a sneer.

"Hey, you kid, why can't you understand!" Xu Jie said anxiously.

"Father-in-law, it's not that I don't understand, but that's because of my father-in-law. Today, it's actually time for life and death. If it doesn't change, then the Ming Dynasty will soon go downhill. Maybe it will be destroyed in less than many years.

In a chaotic world, do you think, who is the most beneficial to those officials? Is it good for those landlords? It is not good for anyone. We really have to do this, including father-in-law, you are already a minister of the cabinet. You should have the people in your heart, but you should not only have those landlords, those officials, and the people in your heart. I believe that the emperor will give you more power at that time. If there are no people, father-in-law, you will definitely make mistakes!" Zhang Hao sat there, reminding Xu Jie.

"Why don't I have any people in my heart? Hao'er, I pay attention to methods and methods in doing things. I can't do it in this way!" Xu Jie stared at Zhang Hao and said, "I came to persuade him myself, but now I'm still persuaded by Zhang Hao. Xu Jie was a little anxious.

"Father-in-law, do you still pay attention to methods? It's too late, you need to use the dictionary, and use the dictionary in troubled times!" Zhang Hao said to Xu Jie.

"What are you talking about in troubled times?" Xu Jie said anxiously.

"Father-in-law, you really don't know what the Ming Dynasty is like now. You have been in the capital for many years. Go downstairs and see what life the people live now. You are so poor that you will know the consequences when you come with a natural disaster. If you don't have tax exemptions this year, you don't provide people's seeds and agricultural tools, just watch it, the world will be in chaos!" Zhang Hao sat there, looking at Xu Jie and said.

"How could this be so serious?" Xu Jie was shocked when he heard Zhang Hao say this.

"Father-in-law, if you have the chance, you can go outside and see it. Don't look around the capital. It's not bad near the capital. Those officials are still not that serious. They still have to do something. The current situation is that if the court wants to do things in the local area and allocate money, local officials will fool them and collude with the officials who come to inspect. It's done like this. Is there little such thing happening?

Father-in-law, if you are here in the capital every day, you really don’t know what happened. Besides, if the people have no way to survive, they can still rebel. Who is willing to kill the work of the head?" Zhang Hao sat there and continued to say to Xu Jie, who was also sitting there thinking about it at this moment.

"Father-in-law, now, the Ming Dynasty is full of holes. If it is not treated, it will be too late. There will be no chance at that time. Otherwise, I can be so anxious?" Zhang Hao continued to sigh and said, "I don't want to do it either."

But the people of the Ming Dynasty were too poor. Although the landlords were rich, how many landlords were there in a county town? Can they account for 10% of the people? It is probably difficult? Ninety percent of the people don’t have to live? What are the people waiting for if they don’t?

Xu Jie sat there thinking for a while, then said, "Hao'er, father-in-law will go downstairs and see what's going on!"

"It's right for you to go. Not only do you want to go, but other cabinet ministers have to go and let them see what the Ming Dynasty has become now!" Zhang Hao nodded and said when he heard this.

"Well, we will all go then!" Xu Jie nodded and said. If it is really as Zhang Hao said, it really needs to change. If it does not change, it will be troublesome at that time.

Soon, Xu Jie left, and Xu Shiyun also arrived at Zhang Hao's study. When she saw Zhang Hao sitting there thinking about something, she came over and asked, "What's dad asking for you? But what's the trouble?"

"Ah, it's okay, it's just a matter of the court. There's no trouble. Our family has no trouble!" Zhang Hao said to Xu Shiyun with a smile. What Zhang Hao said was the truth. As long as his family does not rebel, there will be no trouble.

"Well, husband, dad is sometimes confused. If there is anything wrong, don't take it to your heart!" Xu Shiyun said to Zhang Hao.

"What are you talking nonsense? If your father is here, he will scold you when he hears you say this!" Zhang Hao said with a smile.

"I just talk to you, and my father is sometimes confused!" Xu Shiyun said shyly immediately, while Zhang Hao continued to be busy.

When he woke up the next morning, Zhang Hao went straight to the Danfang. After reporting on the intelligence work, he stepped up and said to Zhang Hao.

"Barzi, those officials can be dealt with. After you search their property, you will hand it over to the Ministry of Justice!" Jiajing said to Zhang Hao.

"Okay, but the land should be distributed to the people?" Zhang Hao stood there and said to Jiajing.

Jiajing didn't say anything when he heard it. He also knew that some officials now objected to doing this, believing that this would make many landlords feel dangerous. Of course, the main reason was that those officials felt dangerous.

"Your Majesty, I would like to recommend that the people give it to the people. If the people live well, who cares about the landlords' life? No matter how bad they are, they will not live better than those who have no land!" Zhang Hao stood there and said to Jiajing.

"That's right, but there are different voices in the court now. I'm worried that if it continues to be implemented, many officials will object, and maybe something will happen!" Jiajing spoke in the alchemy room with his hands behind his back and walked.

"What are they afraid of? They dare to do whatever they want and continue to arrest them. Anyway, there are so many Jinshis who have not yet arranged their positions. Moreover, I believe there are good officials for the people!" Zhang Hao sat there and said to Jiajing.

"Well, it is necessary to do it. The key is how to do it?" Jiajing nodded and said to Zhang Hao.

"How can I do this?" Zhang Hao looked at Jiajing without understanding.

"Of course, if you do this, don't move after you check the land. I want to see the reaction below. If the reaction is fierce, then I'm dealing with some people. If it has not calmed down, then I need to consider. Also, when will you go to Shandong?" Jiajing said and looked at Zhang Hao.

"I, will I go to Shandong again? To deal with King Lu? Or to Shaanxi and to deal with King Qin?" Zhang Hao looked at Jiajing in surprise and asked.

"Then what you mean, you let them go. I don't know yet, you can let him go. If you go to Shandong and clean up the people of the King of Qin, I will probably get tens of millions of acres of land. At that time, the people of Shandong will thank you.

The people of Shanxi are very grateful to you now. The current Shanxi governor has also written a memorial. The harvest this year of Shanxi is probably good, and the people have hope. Shanxi has not even had any minor chaos so far. Why? It is because the people have land to plant.

Moreover, the court is tax-free to them! Although it may be taxed next year, and of course, it may not be charged, they will pay taxes directly to the court and pay a lot less money!" Jiajing sat there and said.

"Actually, the emperor, if all the land is taken over to the court, then the farmers in the world can be exempted from taxes!" Zhang Hao sat there, thought for a while, and spoke.
