Time travel rebellion, I'm serious

Chapter 660 The Fantasy of Datong Mutual Aid Society

For the Datong Mutual Aid Society in Xuzhou, they were among the first to know the news of the Han army's defeat in Beijiang before the news spread widely. Therefore, while they were happy for the Han army, they were also troubled by the slow development of the Han army. And anxious.

However, this did not stop them from taking the initiative to publicize the achievements of the Han army as a tap water, and widely spread the news that the so-called "beautiful women" treaty that was most relevant to the people was abrogated.

At first, everyone didn't believe it, or was half-believing it, but as people started talking about it later, they had no choice but to believe the news.

"I really can't imagine how powerful the Han army would be under the leadership of Datong Society, and how happy the people would be!"

In the small pavilion, some students sighed with emotion. Although Xuzhou is not bad, in terms of food production, it is a little behind Jiangnan.

"Look, this Di report is from last year's autumn harvest. The grain income of the three counties of the Han Army was as high as 260 kilograms per mu, and the total output was as high as more than 500 million shi. The total output in a year was no less than 5000 million shi. .”

"This income is really not low. According to the taxation of the Han army, only half of the grain needs to be handed over. Based on this calculation, the grain that the people can have is about 500 million shi."

"With this much food, if a person eats two kilograms a day, plus some wild vegetables and the like, it will be enough to keep him full."

"Well, although they don't starve as fast as oil and water, they are no worse than the rural people in Xuzhou, no, even better. You must know that Xuzhou is the capital of the state, and the people can still live. If it were the counties below, the people would I can barely survive.”

"I really envy the people in Xuzhou under the rule of Datong Society. They are living such a happy life!!"

"Haha, I also have the Han Army's new grain tax policy. From now on, the people's lives will get better and better."

A student said as he took out a new tax policy for the Han army from his sleeve.

"This is the new tax policy of the Han army. According to the calculation of a person's annual ration of five shi, the excess is the surplus grain. If the surplus grain does not exceed one shi, no tax will be paid. For one shi of surplus grain, five liters will be levied; for two shi of surplus grain, the tax will be levied. One dou of five liters; if there are three shi of surplus grain, three dou of grain will be levied; if there are four shi of surplus grain, five dou of grain will be levied; if there are five shi of surplus grain, seven dou of five liters will be levied; if the surplus exceeds five shi, two dou of five liters of grain will be added to the original basis."

"Let's assume that the Han army has 100 million people in one county, then three counties have 300 million people, and the annual ration is 500 million shi of grain without paying taxes."

"If the Han army has a grain income of 5000 million shi per year based on the best harvest, then the tax they need to pay is on the 500 million shi of grain."

"Based on the average tax collection of seven dou and five liters for five shi, the Han army can collect a total of 520 million shi of grain. The surplus grain in the hands of the people is 970 million shi of grain, which is much more than the rations."

"Calculated in this way, a person's ration is basically about fifteen kilograms of food, and the daily ration is about four to five kilograms."

“With so much food, it’s not a problem to eat well, not to mention being full!!”

This is how this student calculated it, but the actual situation is far from that. There is still a big difference in it.

Besides, all students have a pretty good family life, but there is actually a huge gap in awareness about the consumption of this ration.

In terms of practical issues, two kilograms of grain can already make a person live very well. You must know that the current population rations of the Han Army are basically calculated based on those after the age of ten.

Essentially, food consumption is different according to a person's gender and age.

Therefore, the actual situation of the Han army is that the people are better off, and the Han army can receive less food taxes.

However, the Han Army has sufficient response to this situation, and the preparation and opening of the market will also bring a steady stream of income to the Han Army.

Later, the Han army would use the money to buy the excess grain from the people and completely develop the economy.

Regardless of the fact that grain taxes have become lower, commercial taxes are gradually increasing. At the same time, with the continuous flow of money, the benefits to the Han army will naturally be higher.

Coupled with the Yanhan Trading Company and many other trading firms, as well as the compensation from the Rakshasa Barbarians, the lives of the people under the rule of the Han Army will only get better in the future.

At the same time, it will also drive the rapid development of military power, and basically there will be huge changes every day.

So what this student calculated is really far from reality.

Of course, with the development of time, people can not only have enough to eat, but also eat well, wear well, live well, and play well.

Moreover, under the leadership of Liu Wu, the Han army has begun to vigorously develop the fishing industry and mobilize the people to carry out breeding (not large-scale breeding, but small-scale breeding per household, raising a few chickens, a sheep, etc.) .

Not only that, even places that are not suitable for growing food must plant some edible fruit trees. With the development of canning technology, once the fruit trees bear fruit, it will be another big gain.

It can be said that engaging in production and tapping the potential under the rule of the Han army are what Liu Wu needs to do and is currently doing.

As for the army, investment will naturally increase, and at least the people will be willing to actively invest.

For example, in the two towns that were the first to implement grain tax reform, the Han army basically did not invest a lot of resources in subsequent militia training expenses, and it all relied on the people's independence.

And the people naturally understand where their real way out is, so don't look at the Han army not investing more resources, but their development speed is getting faster and faster.

It can be said that if it were not for the need to guard against the White Lotus Sect, the militiamen in these two towns would be the best candidates for soldiers, or even squad leaders.

But even so, after the Han army stationed a battalion in Hetu Mountain, they formed a more powerful militia team with the militia from these two towns as the core.

Therefore, the strength of the Han army's soldiers does not seem to have increased much, but the strength of the civilian militia has greatly improved.

These things are not something that the students in Xuzhou can know, but this does not prevent them from being full of illusions about the Han army and the Datong Society in charge of the Han army.

"It's really good for the people under the rule of the Datong Society. I really hope that the Datong Society and the Han army can fight over one day!"

Some students lamented, but others said:

"Actually, I think you are wrong. Although the Han army is good and the Datong Society is good, in my opinion, instead of expecting the Han army to fight over, we should not be allowed to fight over!!"

"You think, if we have the strength, raise the flag of righteousness in Xuzhou and respond to the Han army, what will happen to the world? The people's lives will be better, right?"

In response, some students scolded: "If we fail, we will just die, but if we succeed, the life of the people will only be worse. Not only us in Xuzhou, but the whole world will be even more chaotic!"

The student who proposed the idea suddenly blushed: "How is that possible!"

Another student laughed and scolded: "Idiot, you don't even think about it, why is it that Datong Society is so powerful, but it only fights in Leizhou and Northern Xinjiang instead of sweeping the world?"

"I'm telling you, it's not for anything else, but Datong Society has the power to conquer the world, but it doesn't have the power to rule the world. If it uses officials from Da Gan, what do you think is the difference between it and being under the rule of Da Gan!"

"And if we fail in the uprising, we will just die, but if it succeeds, the Han army will not be able to cope with us, and if all the states in the world follow the same example, they will collapse!"

"When the time comes, if many people follow our example, then the states will inevitably be divided into separate kingdoms, and then the princes will fight in a melee!"

"Those ambitious people will not choose to accept the leadership of Datong Society like us. They will only compete with others for territory in the name of Datong Society."

"Tell yourself, when the world faces this situation, will the people's lives be better or worse?"

"And don't forget, there is a Rakshasa barbarian in the north who is watching covetously. If the world is in chaos, what do you think will happen???"
