    The second day.

    The fresh "Chang'an Daily" was released. After it was printed by the News Temple, it was distributed to various places in Chang'an by specialized personnel.

    After this short period of adaptation, the first batch of officials of the News Temple have already understood the news work and are proficient in its use and mastery.

    There are also many news stalls. In order to implement what Zhao Chen said before, there are more than thirty news stalls in Chang'an, covering the entire Chang'an.

    A news booth has been set up in front of a certain restaurant.

    When people passing by saw the newly released newspapers, they couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°Here¡¯s a copy.¡±

    Then, two copper coins were thrown out.

    "Two copper coins are really not expensive for ordinary people.

    I took the newspaper and started to read it.

    The entire "Chang'an Daily" has been divided into pages. For example, the first page is the most important thing that happened in the Tang Dynasty or the imperial court, and today's incident is the imperial examination in the imperial court.

    The first version directly restored the content of the competition between Zhao Chen and Lu Cheng.

    Looking at the content in the newspaper, the people were very excited: "I didn't expect the imperial court to be so interesting. That Zhao Chen is so awesome."

    It¡¯s not just this common man. In a restaurant somewhere, a common man said excitedly: ¡°Today¡¯s Chang¡¯an Daily, if anyone is literate, please read it.¡±

    A scholar who could read and write stood up and began to read.

    Soon, it was time for Zhao Chen. When the poem was read, everyone was amazed.

    "A morning is like blue silk and snow turns into snow at dusk. This poem is so good."

    "Haha, this poem also talks about Cheng Yaojin, it's amazing."

    "My talents are destined to be useful, and I will come back after all the money I have spent. This Mr. Zhao, this literary talent, could be the star of Wenqu who descended to earth."

    The rest of the people in the restaurant listened with gusto. Although they couldn't write it, they still had the basic ability to appreciate it. Moreover, the scholar who read the newspaper admired it after reading it and explained the meaning.

    There are a lot of people gathered in the restaurant, the boss¡¯s business is good, and there are still many scholars who have not dispersed in the restaurant.

    Some of these scholars who failed the exam were frowning, while others were preparing to pack their bags and go back to fight again next year.

    "However, few scholars are really willing to go back, because the journey is far away and the cost of going back may not be enough.

    Some scholars sat down, and the waiter came up and said with a smile: "Sir, would you like a copy of today's "Chang'an Daily"?"

    ¡°Let¡¯s have one.¡±

    The waiter took out a copy of Chang'an Daily, which sold for two copper coins. In addition to the stalls, these inns were also contacted by the News Temple. By selling these newspapers, each inn could make a profit of one copper coin.

    These scholars opened the newspaper. On the front page was "Palace Examination: The No. 1 Scholar's Literary Talent Amazed the World." The subtitle below was "I am born with talents that will be useful."

    These scholars looked at it, and after reading it, all of them had shocked faces.

    ¡°Is this Zhao Chen¡¯s talent so terrifying?¡±

    "It seems that the position of number one scholar belongs to him."

    That poem and the couplet also amazed many scholars, especially the willow in the smoke locked pond, which made many scholars ponder it, but after pondering it, no one could figure it out.

    The second page was another interview with Lu Cheng and others. They all expressed their sincere admiration for Zhao Chen.

    In addition, there was an interview with Zhao Chen, and Zhao Chen¡¯s words made many people stunned.

    "What do you mean, Mr. Zhao wants to recruit farmers and scholars?"

    The ordinary people who gathered around the scholar also asked, "What is he recruiting farmers for?"

    The scholar took a look at the newspaper and said: "It is written in it that Mr. Zhao is the Prince Consort of the Tang Dynasty and has an estate of three thousand. The current fiefdom is in the western suburbs, so Mr. Zhao wants to recruit people."

    Some ordinary people have moved their minds, and their lives have not been easy recently. If they can seek refuge with a good landlord, get land, and have food on the table, maybe they will still have some money in their hands by the end of this year.  surplus.

    "Then, does it say how much food we can get?"

    "This is what the people are most concerned about."

    The scholar looked at it again, and then saw the third page. This new page was full of Zhao Chen¡¯s recruitment information.

    "Yes, it said above"?In the first year, this year, based on the output, only one-tenth of the output will be collected, and the rest will belong to yourself; in the second year, two-tenths of the output will be collected, and the rest will belong to yourself, and the rest of the taxes will be except for  Apart from the household tax and warehouse tax that need to be paid, there is nothing else to pay.  "

    Household tax and free warehouse tax were taxes that needed to be paid during the Tang Dynasty.

    Household tax is levied on a per-household basis. A total is estimated based on the output value of the good and poor fields of the family, and then the tax level is determined based on this total.

    Not long ago, Li Shimin issued an order to establish three levels of households in the world. Before they were promoted and demoted, they were set to ninth level. This means that the household tax will be changed to ninth level.  The specific tax value ranges from about 4,000 to 500 coins.

    The second tax is the free warehouse tax. This tax has been around since the Spring and Autumn Period. It is equivalent to the country's reserve materials. When there is a good harvest and the price of food falls, the state purchases it and stores it at a guaranteed minimum price. When there is a bad harvest and the price of food rises, the state will keep it.  Sold to everyone at a guaranteed minimum price, it plays a role in regulating food prices and relieving famine.

    ??The free warehouse tax is two liters per mu.

    Hearing what the scholar said, some of the people around him were moved.

    The scholar continued: "In addition, if the village needs work, it will also pay wages. The crops and grains grown will be distributed in the village, and various planting methods will be educated to ensure that every farmer can eat meat."

    Wow!

    The people around were in an uproar.

    "Is it true that every household can eat meat?"

    ¡°It¡¯s impossible, it¡¯s completely impossible.¡±

    "That is, if every household can eat meat, how many sheep and pigs must be raised?"

    "I think Mr. Zhao is telling lies and is just trying to trick people into coming here."

    "I heard another Zhuangzi before. He also said well at the beginning, but then he directly raised taxes, and there was no surplus at all."

    When people around said this, many people began to hesitate.

    One of the farmers named Xu Decai also had a look of hesitation on his face.

    "Xu Decai, do you want to go?"

    Xu Decai thought for a long time, raised his head and said resolutely: "I'll go."

    "Xu Decai, you are crazy. This is something that is still unclear. What are you going to do?"

    "Yes, and who knows what the allocated fields will be like. Many villages have good fields and paddy fields for themselves, but all the bad fields are given to us. What's the point of this?"

    "Xu Decai, where are you going? There is nothing to go to."

    Xu Decai scratched his head: "I'd better go and take a look first. You guys eat here first while I go take a look." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
