After talking about the Yellow River diversion project, Su Yonglin had a talk with Tian Jue about returning farmland to forests in all parts of China.

"It is not difficult to implement the project of returning farmland to forests. With the foundation of the former IOUs, people are willing to believe that the big government has given them enough compensation and promised that it is not difficult to move in the areas where returning farmland to forests is needed.
However, according to the further investigation by the people sent there, it is found that the soil erosion area in China is vast beyond imagination and even more serious than the report given by the former Qilu Corps. At least 30% of the places that need afforestation and soil consolidation are too many. "
Tian Jue smell speech frowned.
"Isn’t it said that there were trees planted in Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Guangyi in those days?"
"The base has been cut down, and the situation of land merger is not as good as that of other places. There are also a bunch of people who have taken root since the Song Dynasty, and there are doors and landlords and gentry who have run the people to open up wasteland.
This land reclamation will destroy forests. In those days, Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Guangyi made efforts, and their ordeal has gone away. Let’s start from scratch. There is no shortcut.
It will take several years for the afforestation and soil consolidation strategy to be effective, and there will be no improvement in the sediment situation of the Yellow River in the next few years. It will take at least ten years to finally achieve the balance between sediment and scour. "
"Damn it! A bunch of bastards! "
Tian Jue clenched his fist. "So A Lang, I have long suggested that we should take action to liquidate the landlords and gentry as soon as possible, and re-measure the fields as soon as possible to carry out land reform, so that we can not only control the situation, but also better promote the return of farmland to forests!"
"If there is no Xia Guo, of course, I would like to solve those bastards as soon as possible, but Xia Guo and Xia Guojun can also mobilize 200,000 to 300,000 troops. Wouldn’t it be dangerous to be forced to shut the door and the landlord Xia Jun in?"
Su Yonglin frowned and said, "Worry is worry and foreign invasion. If you can deal with it alone, you must never let the two merge into worry and foreign invasion. At that time, it will be more difficult to deal with it. So I have to clean up Xixia before rectifying the department.
But don’t worry too much about them being earth-shaking and waiting for the law to be formally promulgated. I will implement the tax reform. At that time, I don’t worry that the landlords and gentry will not show their fox tails. Once I catch them, don’t blame me for being ruthless. "
The yoshimitsu flash in Su Yonglin’s eyes is obviously ready to kill.
And this wave of killing people will not be rare.
The Yellow River Project has just begun. Obviously, the empire has no more financial power to deal with Xixia. It needs to eradicate a wave of moths and extract troops from them before it can plot Xixia, so the battle to destroy Xixia will be delayed.
This is really not something that makes people happy, but it can’t be blamed on Su Yonglin and Dachao.
It can be blamed that the Northern Song Dynasty and the State of Jin left the Great Dynasty with a broken start, which made it necessary to make efforts to fill the congenital deficiency before it could become a normal developing country.
The feeling of renovating the Yellow River alone is no less difficult than that of Dayu in those days.
Tian Jue is also quite resistant to this. He nodded in agreement and said nothing.
Su Yonglin went back and forth along the Yellow River from the beginning of the month to the beginning of September, checking the project preparation and the accommodation conditions of the soldiers and civilians who participated in the project, and so on. After everything was satisfied, he returned to the north and continued to control the bureau.
On the ninth day of September, Su Yonglin returned to Zhongdu, and the next day, the Zhongdu Grand Council announced that the newly revised Law was officially promulgated. Since then, the big judiciary has had a written law to enforce the law and abide by it.
As soon as the Law was promulgated, there was a wave in the great powers. Officials, scholars, vendors, farmers, workers and the army were not prepared for it.
Zhao Shen and his "administrative foundation" also worried about wiping their butts for the war when the country had already survived a crisis.
If Zhao Shen and his supporters want to develop themselves, the first thing they have to face is the rotten stalls after the war.
Money is needed everywhere, whether in Lin ‘an or in the city. Without money, many things can’t be handled.
However, all the money has to be used to exchange war reparations and prepare for the new year’s money, and there is not much money to subsidize local finance and restore local production.
This group of ministers wanted to break their heads and didn’t come up with any effective methods.
There are still people who want to raise salt taxes again to get more income from salt taxes. Anyway, everyone has to eat salt, which is absolutely profiteering.
But Shi Hao rejected it.
Shi Hao believes that the current salt price has led to the rampant smuggling of salt, and people’s grievances are boiling. If the salt price continues to be high, more people will take risks. Instead of high salt prices, we should lower the salt price and vigorously crack down on smuggling salt dealers.
Lowering the price of salt will let the people know that official salt can still be bought, and cracking down on illegal salt dealers will let the people know that buying and selling illegal salt fields is changing, and the motivation of people to buy illegal salt and join the illegal salt sales group will be reduced, so they will continue to choose official salt.
In this way, it can be sustainable to fish instead of stewing the golden hen in one breath. Is it a good thing for DaSong to rebel because it can’t afford salt?
You guys really don’t understand!
For this, Zhao Shen supports Shi Hao and thinks that the salt price can’t continue to be high. To continue to raise the salt price is to play with fire.
This plan was rejected, and some people said that the company would draw money from the maritime business groups with amazing profits with high commercial taxes.
This is a way for Zhao Shen and his ministers to make money from maritime merchants. He also heard a little that the court can get a lot of money from maritime merchants every year, which is also an important part of fiscal revenue
If we can do some work in this area, it should increase the government’s financial income.
So this method was handed over to Shi Hao and others for careful discussion. If it has little impact, it will be put into practice to make money from the maritime business.
But it’s not something that can make money immediately. Zhang Jun gave Zhao Shen an idea with a clap of his head.
