C523 The People Are Crazy

"What's the second policy of the new policy?"

"Tax reduction, agricultural tax reduction, commercial tax reduction!"

"As for agricultural tax, it is reduced to 30 tax one, and commercial tax is 10 tax one!"

"What do you think? Are you surprised and surprised?"

Looking at the dumbfounded faces of the civilians, Ye Xun laughed!

There were fewer peasants in the capital.

This was because there were very few fields near the capital.

The previous lands had surprised them.

But after calming down, these people found that the average fields actually didn't have much to do with them.

However, this was the second national policy.

It made them ecstatic!

That was business tax!

Bai Mei's capital was flourishing with business.

The people who could settle down in the capital would more or less run some small businesses.

Or they could run some handicrafts!

This was how they could establish themselves in the capital and barely feed themselves!

However, in the past, whether it was agricultural taxes or commercial taxes, all of them were frighteningly high!

The agricultural tax had reached a terrifying ratio of fifteen to seven.

And commercial tax, that was even more terrifying!

It had reached the level of 10 to 7!

With such a high tax rate, no matter how prosperous the capital's business was, it would be impossible for him to obtain such a high tax rate.

The civilians at the bottom of the hierarchy were unable to bear the burden!

But now, the tax had been reduced to one out of ten!

This was simply like a dream!

"Everyone, there's no need to doubt the authenticity of this new tax!"

"Because this is the decision that I, Ye Xun, the empress, and the regent have made after discussion!"

"It will be implemented in the capital in a few days!"

Ye Xun once again revealed a shocking piece of news!

The civilians were stunned.

Then, their eyes turned red!

Many people started to wail on the spot!

It was too blissful!

Ten to one tax of business tax, this could make them have more or less money in their hands!

With such a tax rate, would they still have a hard life?

Such a tax rate, they really didn't even dare to dream about it!

"Teacher Ye, Wan family, give birth to Buddha!"

"Long live His Majesty, Long live the Prince Regent!"

In the crowd, someone let out a fanatical shout!

In an instant, the entire Fragrant Sky Plaza seemed to have been lit up.

Teacher Ye was everywhere with Buddha. Long live His Majesty, long live the Prince Regent!

On the high platform.

Moo Qingwan and Mu Changge looked at Ye Xun with admiration.

This was Teacher Ye!

He was truly a peerless Saint Master!

His every starting point was for the poor people!

Only such a person was worthy of their respect!

Gu Yunci smiled and shook his head.

Of course, he knew that Ye Xun's successful speech this time was just a pretense!

The real purpose was to promote the new national policy.

Among them, the average farmland and tax adjustment were the two most crucial factors.

This was related to the personal interests of the people!

He believed that with Ye Xun's announcement today,

the entire capital, no, the lower class citizens of the Hundred Charms, would undoubtedly support the Female Emperor!

No one would be stupid enough to support the nobles!

"However, this tax rate that junior has set... I'm afraid that the finances of the Hundred Charms might not be able to hold on for long!"

Very quickly, Gu Yunci frowned again!

When he first ordered the tax rate.

In fact, everyone, including Gu Yunci, had objections.

Because the tax rate was really too low.

It was very likely that it would cause the Charming Financial Group to collapse.

However, Ye Xun insisted on doing so.

Because of his trust in Ye Xun.

Gu Yunci, Su Shiren, and the others did not say much.

However, Gu Yunci and the others' worries did not disappear.

...

In the Imperial Palace.

The little empress was feeling restless.

She paced back and forth.

"Prince Regent, do you think we can succeed?"

"Will the nobles resist?"

"Will the civilians believe Teacher Ye's words?"

She turned her head and looked at Su Shiren, her small face full of nervousness.

Su Shiren saw this and smiled.

"Xiaoxiao, you are the supreme being of a kingdom."

"You must learn to control your emotions. You cannot reveal your true thoughts in front of your subjects!"

"Otherwise, it will be very easy for the ministers to determine your true intentions from your emotions."

"If that is the case, you will let those ministers lead you by the nose!"

"If this continues, the imperial power will gradually weaken, allowing the officials to have greater power!"

"This is the reason why even in power, people hold emotions in high regard!"

Su Shiren did not directly answer, but took the opportunity to teach his daughter, the Empress.

When the Little Empress heard this, she revealed a thoughtful expression!

To be honest, as a puppet empress.

Before this, she had never even come into contact with the Monarch's Heart Technique.

Naturally, she did not understand these principles!

In fact, Bai Mei's influential officials treated her like a pig.

Only Su Shiren, Ye Xun, Gu Yunci, and the others would truly teach her the Dao of Monarch!

In the field of the emperor's heart, it was Su Shiren who taught her personally.

As for Gu Yunci, he was in charge of teaching the Little Empress the way of the law.

As for Ye Xun, his teachings were rather complicated.

The way of traversing, miscellaneous, militarists, Old Huang's studies... and even the Dragon Slaying Art!

He would teach them all to the Little Empress!

"I've learned it!"

The Little Empress took a deep breath and bowed to Su Shiren.

Su Shiren nodded and replied to the Little Empress' previous question.

"Teacher Ye is unfathomable."

"Even I don't think highly of those triplets, let alone Teacher Ye!"

"As for the civilians... Didn't Teacher Gu say that Teacher Ye is good at making excuses? Why would he be afraid that Teacher Ye can't handle the civilians?"

"Xiaoxiao, since the plan has been decided, there is no need to worry about the future!"

"The most taboo thing for a superior person is to be indecisive!"

"You must remember this!"

Su Shiren said solemnly.

The Little Empress' aptitude was still alright.

Apart from her personality and slightly obvious weakness, she did not have many other shortcomings.

However, Su Shiren could also understand this.

The Little Empress was used to being bullied by the officials, so it was normal for her personality to be weak.

It was enough as long as she tried her best to correct it.

"Mm!"

Upon hearing Su Shiren's words, the Little Empress nodded her head heavily.

She eagerly absorbed the knowledge Ye Xun and the others taught her.

She yearned that one day, she would truly be able to make an independent decision and make a decision with a single word!

"Your Majesty, Prince Regent!"

As the two of them spoke, a female official rushed in.

"Uncle An Yang, Marquis Ji, Marquis Qian Yang, Uncle Dong Lin... all of their family members have been captured!"

"The royal guards are currently raiding the houses of the nobles!"

The female official bowed.

When she said this, Little Empress and Su Shiren both revealed joyful expressions.

"Alright!"

Regarding the nobles, the strategy Ye Xun and the others had decided on was to go from weak to strong.

Small nobles like Anyang Bo.

Even if the Imperial Court were to directly attack them, it would not cause too much of a stir.

Apart from this reason.2

Another reason was... King Jin was waiting for his salary.

The Charm Country's treasury was extremely empty.

If King Jin wanted to subdue the Capital Camp, he naturally had to ensure his salary.

Therefore, under such circumstances, he had to deal with the small aristocrats first.

After he pulled the wool from their bodies.

Then, he would arm the Capital Camp and turn around to eliminate the big nobles like King Dingxiang. That was the correct strategy!

Otherwise, did he really think that he could rely on a hundred royal guards to deal with all the influential officials of the capital?

These influential officials had operated for a thousand years.

The private soldiers of their families were very powerful.

The Royal Guards only had so few people. If one died, the other died. They could not afford to be injured!
