Chapter 27 Tax Reduction and Exemption, Single Whip Law



"How much?"

Chu Yuening asked the price cautiously.

The name of this seven-colored glass fruit sounds very elegant, and it must have extraordinary effects.

Of course, if you have the ability, you should give your children the best.

"Only 499! You won't be cheated or cheated!"

The system sounded loud and passionate, as if it had been injected with chicken blood.

"Okay, okay, I'll buy it!"

For the sake of her own brain which was hurt by the noise, Chu Yuening quickly agreed, but couldn't help but complain.

"Xiao Yiyi, did you go to the sales department for further training?"

"Eh? Host, how did you know? We did have training yesterday."

It also took notes.

I will never be at the bottom of the performance list every month again!

Chu Yuening was speechless. Your system still uses this kind of thing?

This excited look makes it seem like a pyramid scheme.

She looked at the transparent fruit in her hand. It was very magical. The green meridians inside were like a net, but there was no trace of flesh.

With a slight turn of the wrist, the fruit instantly reflects colorful light, dazzling and fragrant.

Chu Yuening couldn't help but take a bite. Hmm... cherry flavor. Another bite. Honeydew melon flavor...

I finished it in exactly seven bites, and each bite had a different flavor.

It’s simply the most delicious fruit in the world!

It’s a pity that it’s too expensive, otherwise she could eat it every day and never get tired of it.

Chu Yuening smacked her lips in aftertaste, then sensed her body and couldn't help but feel puzzled.

"Xiao Yiyi, why didn't my body react at all after I ate it?"

"Because all the energy from the fruit is absorbed by the fetus!"

That’s right, it was originally meant for the baby to eat, Chu Yuening smiled awkwardly.

At the same time, in Zhangtai Palace.

All officials are reporting to Ying Zheng on the autumn harvest situation in various places.

"Your Majesty, thanks to the farming tools developed by the Queen and Mr. Mo, we were able to harvest all the grain in just one month."

"This Mo Ju is indeed a descendant of the Mohist school."

“…”

"But isn't the Great Qin ruled by law? Why did the Mohist school emerge?"

Amidst the praises, there was an inappropriate question.

The hall fell silent in an instant.

The officials all looked at him as if he was a fool, but Li Si watched his nose and eyes, and his eyes watched his heart.

"Oh? Mr. Yan thinks I shouldn't use this Mohist agricultural tool?"

Ying Zheng's expression remained normal, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he inadvertently glanced at Li Si who lowered his head.

"I...didn't mean that. It's just that Legalism is the foundation of our Qin State!"

Lord Yan broke out in a cold sweat, but he had to continue speaking.

"Oh..."

Ying Zheng smiled contemptuously, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

The Legalist party is really impatient and jumped out to test it.

Lord Luo, who had personally experienced harvesting wheat, became anxious. He jumped up on the spot, pointed at Lord Yan and cursed him, spitting everywhere.

"Bullshit! You don't need such advanced farming tools. Why are you going to harvest wheat for the people?"

"It doesn't matter what kind of scholar he is, as long as he can benefit the country and the people."

"You're not going to talk without your back hurting. Go cut ten acres of wheat first."

Lord Luo's fighting ability was so strong that all the officials were frightened and no one dared to speak up to help him.

Lord Yan was scolded so badly that he secretly complained in his heart, wishing he would not play as a forward if he had known this earlier.

"I also think that Mo Ju is quite talented. This movable type printing technique has saved us a lot of effort."

Although Chunyu Yue was a Confucian, he still had some good feelings towards Mo Ju, who saved them and other doctors from danger.

After watching enough of the farce below, Ying Zheng ended the topic in a calm voice.

"My Great Qin is now unified, and there is much to be rebuilt. Regardless of the school of thought, as long as it benefits the country and the people, I welcome you with open arms!"

The handsome emperor sitting on the dragon throne displayed his unparalleled ruling power.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

“…”

As the sound of the end of court rang out, a ridiculous farce was suppressed by the emperor's thundering power.

At noon, Chu Yuening came to Zhangtai Palace carrying a food box.

"A Zheng, you forgot to eat lunch again!"

He glared angrily at the man in black clothes who was obsessed with the memorials.

Because of Chu Yuening's eating habits, three meals a day gradually became popular in the palace.

Only Ying Zheng often missed lunch because he was busy with government affairs.

Chu Yuening discovered this by chance, and she began to monitor her husband frequently.

Because she was pregnant, she ate light food. In order not to affect Ying Zheng's diet, the two of them ate separately.

"Okay, it's my fault. Lao Yuening is worried about it."

Ying Zheng put down the memorial, stood up, took the food box in one hand, and took Chu Yuening's hand in the other.

In fact, apart from occasionally forgetting, he mostly enjoyed Chu Yuening's care.

"Then you should eat now and then take care of official business."

"I don't know how you managed to grow so tall and strong with only two meals a day."

Chu Yuening reached out and pinched Ying Zheng's abdominal muscles through his clothes.

"Well, Yue Ning, stop making trouble. I'll let you pinch me again tonight."

The sudden action made Ying Zheng's body tense.

Chu Yuening's face turned red, as if she was really greedy for him.

Okay, I'm a little greedy.

After Ying Zheng finished his lunch, Chu Yuening did not go back to Qinian Palace for a nap, but sat opposite Ying Zheng with a serious and solemn expression.

"A Zheng, now that the Qin Dynasty is unified, we need to recuperate and win over the people. Can we reduce or exempt taxes?"

Although the taxation in the Qin Dynasty is not as heavy as in history, a tax of half is still collected for every acre of land.

In addition to this, one must pay a population tax, and local authorities may also arbitrarily impose miscellaneous taxes.
