Rewards for outstanding reformers among the Hu people were gradually implemented. Those Hu people who successfully obtained cattle and sheep also broke away from the factory life. Instead, they became like other Han people. You only need to feed cattle and sheep every day. The profit from wool is enough for them to survive. This immediately made other Hu people envious. I was also thinking secretly in my heart. If you study actively, wouldn't you also have a chance to get it? And if you successfully report someone around you who speaks nonsense. You can also score extra points!
This suddenly made it difficult for even the vast northwest to hear even a single word of nonsense! After all, I don’t know how many barbarians and common people are all eyeing this piece of cattle and sheep as a reward! If I am accidentally reported! After that, not only will there be no chance of becoming an official, but you will also have to be arrested and sent to reform through labor! Confiscated most of the funds received! This was obviously unacceptable to the Hu people, so they all abandoned the use of the Hu language. Although working in the factory is also very comfortable. Just eight hours a day. You can get enough wages to live on. But compared with cattle and sheep, that's another story. In their minds! Cows and sheep represent status symbols! Hu people with or without cattle and sheep are completely two classes! Although Tibet no longer talks about this. But this kind of thing is remembered in the hearts of the old Hu people and has never been forgotten! All of a sudden! The Hu people's enthusiasm for learning Chinese culture has greatly increased! Even the Han people in the Central Plains. He was also surprised by the Hu people's enthusiasm for learning.
"My dear, these barbarians must have worked too hard to learn. I heard them reciting poems from the Tang Dynasty at midnight last night." "Hehe! After all, King Yongle's rewards are extraordinary. In addition to cattle and sheep, there are also additional silver rewards, and you can even become an official in the future!" "If I were a barbarian, I would definitely want it too!" "It makes sense. No wonder these barbarians are so hardworking. We Han people from the Tang Dynasty cannot be compared with them in the future." "At that time, if you can't even compare to a barbarian, you will be laughed to death." The Han people also secretly compete with each other in their hearts. These barbarians must not be allowed to be stronger than them in the Tang culture! Dignified Han people of the Central Plains! What if they were surpassed by the barbarians in learning Tang culture! It would be embarrassing to tell anyone! For a while. The whole of Tubo was caught up in the wave of learning. Both the Hu people and even the Han people began to work hard to learn Chinese characters. Those illiterate peasants in the past. Under the guidance of poor scholars, he also studied like those barbarians. Su Li is naturally very satisfied with this. Although such a large number of reward payouts are not small. But compared to his inventory, it was nothing at all. As long as it can increase the progress of changing customs, these are naturally nothing! He sat in the king's chair and chuckled. "Not bad, if we follow this progress. "I'm afraid that in five years' time, there will no longer be any Hu people who miss their homeland." "And those who are always trying to make small moves behind the scenes will have enough time to find them out." Speaking of which. Su Li's face turned slightly cold. He will not hesitate to kill and make those guys pay the price. Anyone who intends to cause trouble behind the scenes must pay a bloody price. Although the current progress in all aspects is very smooth.
But that's just the surface. Not everyone will remember the blood feud between the Hu people and the Han people. Especially if those barbarians have friends or relatives who died in the war. There is no guarantee that these anger will not be vented. But these guys, no matter how much they jump around, are just grasshoppers after autumn. Now the situation is over. Just wait for them to pop out on their own! Su Li has never underestimated the power of hatred, but he is more confident in himself. The old days. Whether it is Qi Wang of the Five Surnames, or Li Er today. He has never been merciful in the slightest, let alone these barbarians now? "If they don't want to be my king's subjects, then send them on their way." "but." "The Silk Road between the Northwest and the Tang Dynasty has now been reopened." "Although some businessmen from the Tang Dynasty have come, after all, there are still too few." "You have to find a way to attract them." Su Li squinted slightly. The huge profits brought by the Silk Road cannot be ignored. At present, there are many industrial products produced in Tubo. Datang merchants are also needed to help with exports That being the case. If you want to attract businessmen. Reducing or reducing export taxes for these Datang merchants is the most effective way. Businessmen value profits. As long as there are enough benefits, businessmen will naturally continue to come. Su Li pondered for a moment. "Mere reductions and exemptions are not enough, the commercial law must be revised. Although the Tang Dynasty in its heyday emphasized agriculture and suppressed commerce, it did not collect much commercial taxes. "This is obviously unreasonable."
"." This current phenomenon must be corrected. "Otherwise...bigger problems will arise sooner or later." Although the so-called emphasis on agriculture and suppression of business did play a certain role in suppressing businessmen. Whether it is the inability to take the imperial examination or other restrictions. All make businessmen look down upon. But the Tang Dynasty today is different from the Tang Dynasty in the past. The current commercial prosperity of Datang can be said to have reached a heyday. And the rapid development of agriculture. But it has begun to gradually fail to keep up with the development of the commercial economy. On this basis, it would be unreasonable to talk about favoring agriculture and suppressing business. In the past, the reason was to reduce commodity taxes. It is to promote the development of business. Although in politics, businessmen have never had the slightest status. But the reduction in commodity taxes did allow more businesses to start. It reduces the burden on businessmen and increases their income. But now. Business has clearly reached a heyday. Whether it is the factory opened by Su Li (Li Dehao) or the various systems in Datang. All have allowed the development of the commercial economy to surpass the agricultural economy. That being the case. It is necessary to start increasing the commodity tax. "Although the development of agriculture cannot be left behind, business must also pay attention." "It is said that water can carry a boat but also capsize it." "Today's prosperous Tang Dynasty is closely related to many commercial factories, but this has also led to more and more farmers choosing to work in factories.' "This phenomenon must be avoided, especially now that there are many gaps in the Datang factory." Increase in business taxes. It can help control this phenomenon. Especially in the northwest, the importance of merchants is self-evident.
However, while increasing the commodity tax, it can also improve the business status to a certain extent. Su Li was thinking. On the one hand, he began to revise the commercial law. Now that the northwest is his fiefdom, revising the law is not a problem. .
