Chapter 4913
Lu Yu's voice was loud.
Many star owners present stood there, unable to believe their ears.
"My lord, with all due respect, the agricultural tax is fundamental and must not be moved." A star master said in a trembling voice.
"Why can't you move?"
"Agricultural tax accounts for almost 70% of the government's tax revenue. This is the foundation of the country. If there is no agricultural tax, it will be very difficult for the government to maintain it!" The star master advised.
"Can't the rules be changed?" Lu Yu asked.
Several star masters looked at each other.
"This matter must be figured out slowly, absolutely not in a hurry." The star master said.
"I can afford it, and so can you, because none of you will die of hunger. Have you ever tasted hunger?" Lu Yu asked in a deep voice.
This time, everyone was silent.
Those who can achieve the position of star master are all people who take one out of hundreds of millions.
Many of them were born in jinshi, and showed great talent since childhood. How can a monk feel hungry when he takes his practice as the mainstay?
Lu Yu said solemnly: "You can't feel it, but I really feel the purgatory-like scene. You change your child to eat and die of hunger. You may never see this kind of scene in your life, but I saw it with my own eyes!"
"Let me take taxation as an example. The government has to collect agricultural tax for one spiritual stone. When it is dispatched to the relevant yamen, it will become ten spiritual stones. The yamen will continue to distribute it to various counties, cities, and counties. Increase the amount, and when it really falls into the hands of the peasants, it has already been apportioned to a share of one hundred and twenty spirit stones, am I right?"
Many star masters hesitated, their faces paled.
They lowered their heads, and some even dared not look directly at Lu Yu, and many people had a look of shame on their faces.
If the wild goose leaves the hair, there will always be some greed for ink at all levels. This has long been an unspoken rule.
Lu Yu added: "I have been to a farm in the county government. If the weather is good, it will be fine, but once there is a drought and flood, the land will not be harvested, and the harvest will be seriously damaged. The agricultural tax has not decreased at all, and the agricultural tax is still collected, which has caused many people to suffer miserably and almost collapse.”
A star lord said: "The lord said something serious. There are Tiantian Divisions everywhere to monitor the weather in all directions. If there is a disaster, someone will naturally go to deal with it."
Lu Yu snorted coldly, "Do you really think I don't know what Guan Tiansi does!"
"If there is a disaster, it is precisely when these Guantiansi become rich. In many areas, enough benefits must be handed in, and those monks of Guantiansi will go to adjust and do some small magic spells for praying for rain and controlling water in a small area. If there is no benefit, they will refuse, excuse not to go."
"Everyone says that Guan Tiansi is a fat man, and it happens from time to time that he is full of personal pockets. I heard that there are only 10% of the people in Guan Tiansi who know how to control disasters. The rest are cronies arranged by superiors. You Do you think I don't know!"
All the star masters immediately knelt down and apologized, and many people's faces changed, and they were no longer as calm as before.
They originally thought that Lu Yu was just a powerful warrior.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yu had already thoroughly studied all government affairs.
The little tricks that these star masters wanted to do could not be concealed from Lu Yu's eyes.
"Don't try to lie to me, if you don't plan to do anything, I can naturally replace you." Lu Yu's eyes swept over everyone.
