?The date of Zhang Yu's proclaiming emperor has been set. This is a major historical event that may mark the complete demise of the Han Dynasty.

Although there is no emperor in the Han Dynasty now, the title of the country is still there, and there are still many clan relatives of the Han Dynasty.

Once someone raises the banner of a big man, the big man can still exist in form.

But at this time, another emperor will appear in the land of Huaxia.

Zhang Yu immediately asked the intelligence agency to act. If the news got out, there would definitely be people who were unwilling to be alone and wanted to make trouble.

Then let them do it, in their own territory, and deal with it if they find it.

Zhang Yu asked Guo Jia to keep a close eye on it, and if he found out, he would first spy on it and then report it to him.

It's fine if Zhang Yu doesn't do anything, once he does, he will completely destroy them.

A few days later, Zhang Yu asked about the progress of the preparation again.

"My lord, I have a few questions. If you become emperor, you should promulgate some policies, such as amnesty, tax cuts, etc." Gu Yong said.

Zhang Yu nodded, and then asked everyone.

"What good advice do you have?"

Chen Gong said: "My lord, proclaiming the emperor is a major event. Amnesty is fine. Those who are not serious criminals should be released. In addition, tax cuts can be appropriately reduced. This mainly depends on our financial support."

The general tax cut is also without weapons, and now the great cause of reunification is far from being realized, and the army still needs a lot of money and food.

"Okay, when the time comes, some prisoners will be released and their sentences will be commuted. In addition, those prisoners of war will be pardoned. However, they cannot go back and continue to build roads. They will only be treated the same as our common people and get the wages they should have."

There are tens of thousands of prisoners of war, and they are still building roads.

The difference is that most of the prisoners of war belonged to Yuan Shao’s family, and now Yuan Shao has perished. If they are released, they have nowhere to go. They can only become the people under Zhang Yu’s rule, so Zhang Yu simply pardoned them from the beginning them.

Forgive them and make them your own people, killing two birds with one stone.

"In addition, tax cuts are also necessary. All taxes in China will be reduced to 25%, including landlords and government officials. The total amount cannot exceed 25%." Zhang Yu emphasized.

Several people couldn't help being taken aback, this is Zhang Yu who is going to dig a hole for several princes.

All over China, even the territories that are not their own have tax cuts.

By the way, what qualifications does Zhang Yu have to allow other people to reduce taxes?

Of course Zhang Yu is not qualified. Although he will be called emperor by then, other princes will not recognize him.

At that time, this will be just a piece of paper and will have no effect.

But several people understand that this is powerful.

On Zhang Yu's side, all the taxes add up to only 20% and half, so why should they pay 50% or even 80% of the taxes?

For the other princes, the common people have almost no land of their own, and they are all farming land for the landlord.

However, the land mainly collects taxes, and after the collection, the government will collect taxes, which generally exceed 50% of the taxes.

Fifty percent of the tax is terrible.

Zhang Yu and the others raised the tax rate before, which was far lower than them.

Cao Cao’s collection was relatively small, he collected 30% and a half, but after he collected it, the landlords would collect another wave, and it was really not much in the hands of the people.

Zhang Yu has reduced the tax here, and it also stipulates a maximum of 25%.

They don't cut taxes?

Yes, Zhang Yu will promote it through centralized channels, and then the people will know that the tax here is so low, why are they so high.

Against him.

Don't rebel, don't dare to rebel, that's okay, one day it will explode,

When Zhang Yu fights over, who will the people support?

These princes have such high taxes, why should they pay them?

This is also the brilliance of Zhang Yu's policy.

It was stipulated that all taxes should be reduced, but the princes refused to listen, but the people were very willing to support Zhang Yu, the emperor.

This is a big problem for them.

Zhang Yu began to plan this event, which is not a trivial matter, affecting all the princes.

This will definitely make them uncomfortable for a while, and at the same time tell them how powerful Zhang Yu has become, forcing them to carry out reforms and lowering taxes.

Zhang Yu is against all the landlords, that is, against most of the aristocratic families. This is not the first time Zhang Yu has done this. In the face of the general trend, they have no room to resist.

Several members of the cabinet were there, and after some discussion, there would be no major problems in the territory controlled by Zhang Yu.

"My lord, although our army has increased and there have been more wars at the same time, but now there are more tax sources and financial sources, the tax cuts will not have much impact." Gu Yong said.

To cut taxes means to reduce income, which is a big test for Zhang Yu, who has been fighting.

But now overseas output has also been increasing, especially in the Fusang area, Zhang Yu is simply carrying out predatory mining.

With the influx of a large amount of wealth, Zhang Yu has the confidence to cut taxes.

Zhang Yu's pottery, tea and silk are even larger, and a large number of them are sold to Tianzhu.

Tianzhu has a huge population and is a huge market.

That's it, Zhang Yu can support it, so the tax cut is carried out.

After confirming that there would be no major impact on the territory, Zhang Yu ordered to start.

"Okay, hurry up and deal with this matter, and Feng Xiao will make arrangements for the intelligence side."

Guo Jia has always been the intelligence leader, but in fact, about half of the intelligence is in Zhang Yu's hands.

The two intelligence systems supervise each other.

Guo Jia agreed to come down and told Zhang Yu, "My lord, we have received an important piece of news."

Amidst Zhang Yu's doubts, Guo Jia said: "Three months ago, Xun Yu left Xuchang, first went to Jiangdong, stayed in Jiangdong College for a few days, and then went all the way north, and now he has stayed in Qingzhou for a few days. , he will come to New Peiping."

Xun Yu, Wang Zuozhi's talent, has always been an important minister around Cao Cao.

But when Cao Cao gave up Liu Xie and let Liu Xie die tragically in Luoyang, Xun Yu gave up on Cao Cao and escaped secretly.

Zhang Yu was greatly surprised.

"Unexpectedly, pay close attention to him, but don't disturb him. After he arrives in Youzhou, the king will meet him in person."

Needless to say, Zhang Yu was very surprised that Xun Yu was able to escape.

In fact, if Cao Cao and his important ministers were not there, Xun Yu was almost under house arrest and had no chance to come out.

Cao Cao understood Xun Yu's talent very well and would never let him go.

However, at that time, he didn't care about Xun Yu who had been abolished.

Xun Yu gave up on Cao Cao and was unwilling to help him.

If it weren't for cherishing talents, and the Xun family had an important position in him, Cao Cao even wanted to attack Xun Yu, but he couldn't get it, and he wouldn't let others get it.

However, Xun Yu actually escaped, and fled to Zhang Yu's side.

Xun Yu went to Jiangdong first, he really wanted to go to Jiangdong to see what kind of existence it was, and why such a big change took place in a few years.
