The Reborn Wife is Farming

Chapter 645 Submission

Liu Dahei said that he would do everything he could, so he stuffed all his family property into the dowry and carried it to the Miao Village to be hired.

There are a total of 120 sets of precious ones such as gold and silver jewelry (robbed), common ones such as cloth and daily furniture, and one of them carries a box, which is the account book of their family's cash and banknotes.

When Ji An saw that he dared to write this thing on the dowry, he knew his sincerity, and his opinion of him was gone by two points in his heart, but he still didn't have a good face.

He gave the box to his youngest daughter, intending to give it to her as a dowry, so that Liu Dahei would become a pauper. Wouldn't he still have to rely on his daughter for food?

Ji An is more satisfied when he thinks so.

He gave most of the things as a dowry to his daughter, but he withheld all the books in the dowry.

Liu Dahei did not expect that the old and rough father-in-law would like books. He has a lot of books. When the bandits entered the city, the rich families in the city fled, and the grandsons were grandsons. He took the opportunity to snatch a lot of books. If you want to leave it to future generations, it's not bad to use it to curry favor with your father-in-law now.

Liu Dahei hurriedly asked someone to pick up a copy of the heavy book. Not to mention, because everyone was illiterate and knew that he liked books, the younger brothers snatched a lot of them. Most of them had For the heavy ones, one book was pulled out from the inside, which could fill five large boxes. Therefore, not long after Liu Dahei finished delivering the betrothal gift, he carried another five boxes of books to his father-in-law.

This time, he immediately flattered his father-in-law and brother-in-law who had the right to speak.

Chen Jiacai was very happy to entertain Liu Dahei. Books are hard to sell in this era.

Not to mention whether Ji'an's family has money, even if they have money, it is difficult to buy so many books, so compared with those gold and silver jewelry, these books are more precious to him.

After Qi Haoran heard about it, he asked Fei Bai to go to the bookstore to print a batch of books and send them to the Miao Village, saying that they were a gift from their palace to the Miao Village.

Fei Bai asked, "Master, what are the bibliographies to be printed?"

Qi Haoran said: "The Analects of Confucius and the Code of Laws are the key points. More books on enlightenment should be printed, so that the Miao people will not have to rush to read a book if they want to read it."

Mu Yangling heard it from the side, and hurriedly said: "There are also agricultural books, medical books, craftsmen's books, and more books on water conservancy. Since books on water conservancy are printed, they can't understand them just by reading them. Books on arithmetic all count."

"Although what you said is practical, they are all unpopular, and the cost may be high," Qi Haoran asked, "Do we still have money in our family?"

"Don't worry, this little money is still affordable," Mu Yangling said, "And it's okay to print a little more. We can also distribute some to Han Chinese academies. These books are very practical. You just read history books and What is the use of the Four Books and Five Classics? You should also read more of these other books."

Qi Haoran rubbed his nose, he didn't even read the Four Books and Five Classics, okay? How could he read such things as agricultural books?

"Then print twenty volumes of each book, ten volumes will be sent to the Miao Village, and the other ten volumes will be sent to various academies. You can discuss with the bookstore and come up with a bibliography for the princess to read." Qi Haoran instructed.

Fei Bai responded.

Qi Haoran sent books to educate the Miao people, hoping that they would belong to Daqi from the inside out. Only by learning the language of the sages can they have a sense of belonging to the Daqi ruled by the Han people, so what he sent were "The Analects of Confucius" and other educational books .

And Mu Yangling wanted to take this opportunity to improve the abilities of the Miao people in all aspects, so he attached various technical books.

Among other things, the Miao people don't know all the medicinal materials in the mountains. They usually only pick the ones they are familiar with. Mu Yangling gave them a herbal medicine book, and they could find the medicinal materials according to the pictures on it. Don't let them go to waste in the mountains.

As soon as Chen Jiacai received the book from the palace, he opened it and took it down from the box. Seeing that there were twenty books in a row that were about education, he felt a little annoyed. Does the prince Sima Zhao's heart have to be so obvious?

He opened the other boxes, but found that most of them were agricultural books, medical books and the like, and he felt a little ashamed. He seemed to have misunderstood the prince, and the prince seemed to be persuading Nong Sang.

Chen Jiacai was a little ashamed, so he asked someone to take out the books and put them in order, and said to the chief: "Father-in-law, although the books sent by the lord are not as many as my brother-in-law, they are more practical, which shows his painstaking efforts."

The chief looked at it for a while, but still could only recognize a few words, and asked, "What books are they all?"

"Agricultural books, medical books and other books, among other things, only these two are what our village urgently needs."

Ji An sighed: "We met a good prince."

Chen Jiacai laughed and said, "Father-in-law should say that we met a good monarch."

Ji An frowned slightly, and Chen Jiacai said: "Last time I went to see the prince and had a sincere talk with him about the future of the Miao Village. Listen to what he said. His actions are all ordered by the emperor." Chen Jiacai lowered his voice and said, "I heard that the emperor is planning to make a law to let us Miao people and Han people pay taxes in the same way, and we will not be allowed to increase taxes independently in the future."

Ji'an's heart skipped a beat and couldn't help jumping up, "Really?"

"Father-in-law, please speak softly," Chen Jiacai said, "it's not decided yet, but I think the prince's attitude is that the emperor is in favor of it, but there is a bit of resistance in the court, so it's delayed for the time being. Now the taxes are still according to Da Zhou's, but less Two years, three years at most, the tax must be fixed."

After all, the tax exemption has only been exempted for three years. Now that the country has changed to Daqi, we can't always have Dazhou's tax law.

Ji An's eyes were piercing, and he said: "When I was young, I heard my grandfather talk about the taxes during the reign of King Sejong. At that time, we paid the same taxes as the Han people. Although life was hard, it was not a problem to fill our stomachs. If, if the emperor could Treat our Miao people like Emperor Sejong, and I will swear allegiance to Daqi to the death."

Chen Jiacai's eyes were slightly red, and he said in a low voice: "Father-in-law, don't worry, the current emperor is a military commander, and he is very decisive in his actions. Since he has this intention, he will always succeed. Even if we wait a little longer, we will be patient."

Ji An is very happy, "As long as I can see it in my lifetime."

The support of a prince and an emperor have different impacts.

Qi Haoran supports them, they can only live better during his tenure at most, but if an emperor supports them, it means that the Miao people can live well during his reign.

The term of office is only three or six years, and with Qi Haoran's popularity, he will not serve more than two terms here, but Qi Xiuyuan is in the prime of his youth, at least he has twenty or thirty years to live.

In twenty or thirty years, the Miao people can grow up to two generations. Just think that they only need to pay the same taxes as the Han people, there is no extra tax, and there is no double labor. If he can wake up with a smile, maybe he can also meet the good days that his great ancestor encountered.

Maybe he has better luck. If the later emperor of Daqi is filial and does not change his father's will, then the Miao people will have another ten or twenty years of good life...

Think of Ji An and feel that the heart is fiery.

Ji An asked enthusiastically: "Jiacai, the New Year is coming soon, you said whether we should present a gift to the emperor, so that we can establish a relationship."

Chen Jiacai rolled his eyes and said, "Ask Prince Qi's opinion."
