“Congratulations, Your Majesty, returning to Beijing! Your Majesty’s battle to destroy Guishuang, for my great Han to open up thousands of miles, my ministers congratulate His Majesty, and congratulations to the great Han! Congrats to the world! Long live my emperor!”

Under the leadership of Prime Minister Yang Ci, Liu Kuan and others, the main civil and military officials in Luoyang, envoys from various countries, and people who came spontaneously, all paid tribute to Liu Zhao.

Liu Zhao held his hands empty and said, “All the ministers are flat.

“Thank you, Your Majesty!”

Liu Zhao looked around again and said loudly: “The people spontaneously came to welcome me back to Beijing, and my heart is very happy. However, I feel ashamed! Excuse me, everyone, this expedition to Kushuang, I have a lot to say to everyone. What’s the benefit?

“Okay… benefits?” Yang Ci was a little puzzled, and said, “What benefits? Could it be that His Majesty’s expansion of territory for my big man is not a benefit?”

“Of course it doesn’t count.” Liu Zhao said: “I can expand the territory for the great Han, and I can leave a name for eternity. The court can have more tax sources. But what about you love Qing? What is the benefit? For ordinary people What about the 860?

“Your Majesty means…”

Liu Zhao said: “I was in Guishuang and heard some discussions. Some people thought that it was better for me to stay in Luoyang because of the safety of the world. This expedition was too frivolous and unwise.”

“Uh…that’s because those people are idiots…”

Liu Zhao shook his head slightly and said, “That’s not the case. I think the reason why these people think so is because they think: I can benefit from this expansion, and the court can get benefits from this expansion. However, they will not only get no benefits, but also bear the military expenses of the imperial expedition, and risk the loss of me and the turmoil of the imperial court. Their thoughts cannot be wrong. However, what I want to tell you now is that …”

After a pause, Liu Zhao said in his loudest voice: “I, the Han Dynasty, expand the territory, which is of great benefit to everyone. Now, I will share the benefits of this benefit with everyone! Are you a scholar, a farmer, a businessman?

“What?” the officials exclaimed in unison.

Liu Zhao said: “You heard right, all the officials of the Han Dynasty have doubled their salaries! The imperial court has expanded its territory, tax sources have increased, and all officials can share the benefits! What? Do you think that I am a stingy prince? ? Wealth… I am willing to share it with all the loving ministers!”

The imperial court is powerful, what does it mean to officials?

No one has seriously thought about it, and can only vaguely realize that everyone will be more dignified and have a brighter future.

However, no one thought that the emperor sent money directly!

Salary doubled!

The income of officials is directly linked to the strength of the country!

However, in fact, Liu Zhao wants to increase the wages of officials, not one or two days.

In Liu Zhao’s sixth year in power, the court’s income doubled!

Now, Liu Zhao has been in power for more than seven years, and the income of the court has doubled!

No way, if we say that the first six years were the six years when the great man was recuperating and agriculture developed greatly. Well, the seventh year, with the appearance of sugar, glass mirrors, perfumes, soaps, four-wheeled horse (ceei) carts… is a year of great industrial development!

Today’s big man has already stepped into the industrial society with half a foot, and the fiscal revenue of the imperial court has doubled, which is really normal.

Why can Britain, with a population of several million in later generations, press the Qing Dynasty to the ground and rub it against the ground?

Because Britain is an industrial society, it has the advantage of crushing the agricultural society!

In terms of total output value alone, the Qing Dynasty with a population of several hundred million at that time was still far more than the United Kingdom. However, when it comes to the government’s fiscal revenue, it is far inferior.

At that time, Britain, with a population of several million, had a fiscal revenue of 90 million pounds, equivalent to 240 million taels of silver. And what about the Qing Dynasty with a population of several hundred million? Forty million taels.

Six times the difference!

What is the use of the high economic aggregate of an agricultural society? It cannot be transformed into national power!

Only an industrial society with less input, more output, and individual production far greater than consumption can truly utilize most of the total economic output and transform it into the power of the country to do great things.

The court is so rich, the treatment of officials must be improved.

In fact, as the private sector has become more and more prosperous recently, the relative income of officials is declining rapidly.

You must know that today, ordinary workers in Dahan earn 10,000 yuan a month and can buy 30 stone of grain. A year’s total income, close to five hundred stone officials.

It is really unreasonable not to increase wages for officials.

However, there has never been a suitable opportunity.

Today, Liu Zhao has directly doubled the salaries of officials by celebrating the Han occupation of Kushan.

He just wanted to make the Han officials realize that the court and their interests were completely integrated.

If the big man is strong, the court will give everyone a raise!

It’s so immediate!

It’s that simple and rude!

Do you want to leave more money for your children and grandchildren? Do you want to buy a better dowry for your married daughter? Do you want to better support your parents?

No need to be greedy!

No need to take bribes!

As long as you are conscientious, do your job well, and make the big man stronger!

As soon as Liu Zhao said this…the effect was quite good!.
