Peerless Taoist

The Qianlong Army was already outside of the imperial capital. Lu Yu didn't need to discuss with these wealthy families what he wanted to do. He could speak frankly.    

The biggest right to speak was who was strong enough.    

Lu Yu had already proven himself on this point.    

"We can distribute the land that we have taken back. Aristocratic families can buy back land from the government, but the number of land owned by each aristocratic family must be strictly limited. The matter of the three continents supporting an aristocratic family must never happen again! "    

Lu Yu said his plan. Even Zhao Yuanyan felt a sharp killing intent coming at him.    

"Secondly, tax."    

"The Imperial Court's tax exemption policy is completely unreasonable. The Xu family's wealth is even higher than the Imperial Court's, but they don't need to pay taxes. This is the greatest injustice!"    

Zhao Yuanyan asked, "How do you plan to change it?"    

Lu Yu said," Cancel the tax exemption policy for all aristocrats. The royal family, the nobility, and the relatives are not exempted from paying taxes. Even the Emperor has to pay taxes according to the law. Everyone is equal. No one can be an exception. "    

"Your idea is too unreal." Zhao Yuanyan sneered.    

"Everything depends on the person. If you don't even dare to think about it, what are you going to do?"    

Lu Yu said indifferently, "In addition, in the past, those who have achieved more than the title of High Scholar can be exempted from tax. This is also unreasonable. After that, even if you become the top scorer, you will not be an exception. "    

Zhao Yuanyan frowned. What Lu Yu said was in the interests of the Confucian Sect.    

Lu Yu was a disciple of the Scholarly Sage, but he had actually swung his saber at the head of the Confucian Sect. This was something that Zhao Yuanyan hadn't expected.    

"I abolished the agricultural tax in the Imperial Capital, but this gap... I have to find a way to compensate for it from the aristocratic families. Execute taxes on the rich and set up special subsidies. These are my initial ideas. I still need to think about it."    

Lu Yu said in a deep voice, "I want to take back the spirit vein that the Xu family owns. From now on, at least 90% of the spirit stone that circulate in this world will come from the bank set up by the government."    

"Iron, spirit, salt, money. These few industries are completely monopolized by the government. If any family dares to put their hands on it, I will destroy them."    

"There are sects and officials that need to be monitored by the Imperial Court. The Imperial Court needs to set up another yamen to unify all the officials and sects and take their profits into the treasury. At the same time, the personnel arrangements of the sects must also be done according to the orders of the yamen"    

" In addition, the originally monopoly of the aristocratic families has to be disrupted to prevent a single industry from being monopoly Encouraging new forces to enter is of utmost importance, and it is also the key to prevent the aristocratic families from becoming more and more powerful"    

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Zhao Yuanyan was silent for a long time before he said, "You have touched their foundation. Even if these people won't openly rebel against you, they will definitely make some small moves. It won't be that easy for you to secure your country. "    

A glint flashed across Lu Yu's eyes.    

"If you don't change now, sooner or later, it will lead to a huge disaster! The ancient demon is accumulating its power outside the Two World Mountain. The human race no longer has time to waste."    

Zhao Yuanyan's gaze was somewhat absent-minded.    

He looked at Lu Yu and suddenly said, "Lu Yu, if you are used by Zhen, Zhen will let you be the Grand Secretary."    

"A Grand Secretary in his twenties, you are definitely the number one person since ancient times. Zhen will also give you great power, allowing you to control power and remove all the disadvantages of the aristocratic families. What do you think?"
