Chapter 421 - 421: Wasteland Reclamation Grant (3)



Prince Anyang was stunned.

He was actually not angry.

“Although Anyang County is my land, the local expenses and the annual tribute to the imperial court had to be paid.”

“If we rashly reduce taxes, I’m afraid the imperial court won’t allow it.”

“In addition, the tax policy is issued by the imperial court.”

Lin Xiaoyue smiled. “If it can’t be changed, then don’t change it. What if we implement a subsidy policy?”

Previously, she was worried that Prince Anyang was not willing to reduce the grain tax for his own benefit.

However, hearing his words, she knew that he was really considering it.

“A subsidy policy?” Prince Anyang was interested.

“Yes.” Lin Xiaoyue nodded.

“Issue a notice to encourage the people to reclaim wasteland. The reward for clearing the land is money.”

Prince Anyang frowned.

“This…” He looked hesitant, but he was already thinking about it.

A monetary reward was indeed a good idea.

However, if the reward was too little, it would probably not be attractive. If the rewards were too much, they could not afford it.

“You don’t have to give the reward money. When it’s time to pay the grain tax, you can just deduct it.” Lin Xiaoyue said.

In fact, it was the same as a reduction in grain taxes. It was just a change of phrase.

Seeing that Prince Anyang did not speak, Lin Xiaoyue continued, “of course, there is a limit to the amount of subsidy each household can receive. Any wasteland that exceeded the quota would be considered as voluntary wasteland reclamation and would not be rewarded.”

“In this way, Your Highness can control the annual increase in the area of cultivated land in Anyang County.”

As Lin Xiaoyue spoke, she stole another glance at Prince Anyang.

“In addition, we can set a higher quota for land reclamation subsidies for the big landowners to encourage them to reclaim land.”

Prince Anyang glanced at Lin Xiaoyue and smiled lightly.

Was she thinking for herself?

Lin Xiaoyue didn’t feel embarrassed and continued, “after all, the land needs to be worked on. And when the villagers have their own land, there will be fewer people willing to rent.”

“In that case, the landowners have to think of a way to keep their land occupied.” Lin Xiaoyue smiled and looked at Prince Anyang.

Prince Anyang was surprised, and his eyes lit up.

“Are you saying that Anyang County can attract more people?”

They needed people to generate more money and be trained as soldiers.

Even if they were slaves, the government would collect taxes. These were all income.

In addition, the landowners had a lot of land, so it was not practical to use only slaves.

At that time, the landowners would need to think of a way to encourage people to move to Anyang County.

Hearing this, the others, especially Liang Yu, were also surprised.

Liang Yu seemed to see Lin Xiaoyue’s body glowing.

“Your Highness is wise.” Lin Xiaoyue smiled and cupped her hands at Prince Anyang.

“Haha! Ms. Lin is indeed smart!” Prince Anyang said excitedly.

Lin Xiaoyue smiled.

She thought to herself, “hehe, that’s nothing.”

If it wasn’t for the fact that the Nangong Army was coming back and that she would have close to 6,000 more men on hand, she wouldn’t have bothered saying so much.

Then, the manor no longer needed the tenant farmers to help with the farming, so they had to think of ways to help those people.

“Your Highness is too kind. In addition, I hope Your Highness can arrange for the tenants and villagers near the twelve manors to move away. In this way, there will be better privacy.”

“Yes. This has to be arranged.” Prince Anyang nodded.

Then, he looked at Liang Yu.

“Yes.” Liang Yu hurriedly cupped his hands at Prince Anyang.

Although his heart ached, he did not say anything. After all, he really couldn’t save the money.

Prince Anyang then asked Lin Xiaoyue about some suggestions on land reclamation subsidies, but he didn’t get any valuable input. Only then did he turn the topic to Lin Xiaoyue’s chain stores.

“I heard from Manager Liang that you are looking for partners?”

Lin Xiaoyue’s heart skipped a beat. She thought, “you finally asked.”

“Yes.”

“I want to quickly spread our brand name, but 1 don’t have enough money. That is why 1 came up with such a method. 1 hope that through this win-win cooperation, I could recruit some partners,” Lin Xiaoyue said helplessly.

“After all, we have to feed 6,000 people.”

Prince Anyang and Liang Yu wanted to roll their eyes.

“Hehe, in that case, I will join.io,ooo taels for 50 stores.”

Liang Yu’s expression changed.

So quickly?

Wasn’t His Highness poor, which was why he kept asking the Liang Corporation to pay?
