Answer to Li Ling's Treatise on the Taxation of Grain And The Four Books of the Salt Book (Nansha Anthology, Vol. 4)

　　Author: Zhong Yongxin

　　This article is an important material to examine the origin of artesian wells, and is mostly quoted by salt history research, and the text mentions that "Fuyi and Deng Jing have been collapsing for a long time." Its newly opened artesian wells, courses can be redeemed to make up for the original amount. There is no well stove, and it can be exempted from false compensation. It can be seen that during the Jiajing period of Emperor Ming Shizong (1522-1566 AD), when Xiong Guo, the talented son of Fushun, was located, the artesian wells have begun to be newly opened for use.

　　However, there is an obvious error in the online version, that is, the "筴" is written as "pod", one is a bamboo character head, the same as "Policy", and the other is a grass character head, which means "the long-shaped fruit of the legume plant", which has a completely different meaning.

　　The article is included in the fourth volume of the "Nansha Anthology", which is also selected into the "Four Libraries Quanshu" collection, and the four things mentioned include: the amount of grain in the county, the grain of the ships and horses in each post, the situation of the salt [well] of Fuyi and Dengjing, and the merger of Lijia, of which the third part with important reference value is now collated and recorded for research and reference.

Answer Li Ling on the tax grain Yi Chuan Salt Book of four things

Bear over

　　Insult the four things of the court, look up to the intention of inquiry, and respectfully despise it. The people of the mountains and the wilderness, who are alienated from the world, forget what they have done. Shi Yun: "Cai Fei Cai Fei, no following body." "Or almost!

　　-- A certain amount of grain in the county, a number of grain in each abdomen and a border warehouse, a certain warehouse can be as usual, should a certain warehouse be reduced? The previous Fushun County endowment, a total of 62,199 stone amounts in summer and autumn. Elder Wen said that in the pseudo-summer period, the Ming clan marched on a stone to feed the goose and bird, and after it was pacified, it was given rice accordingly, and then sent 15,180 stones in the seven warehouses on the sides of the Diexi River, far from rice, but also folded silver, and the rate of losing was several times that of the interior, which was not enough to pay its equalization, which was equivalent to more than 780,000 stones. The county is 170 miles away from east to west, 15 miles between north and south, and the general government and eight counties, the four divisions of Mahu, and the revenue cannot be half; The thirteen prefectures of Hefu Province, the seven prefectures of Tongchuan, and the revenue of more than 50,000 stone ears, compared with each other, see that the county is too heavy. First, the government and the county will survey and reduce the number of stones of grain in Chengdu and Guangning to one dollar each, and stop levying six dollars. Keep Yonglu Cang rice, 2,619 stones seven buckets of five liters and 46 spoons per year, in addition to the old branch, the remaining more than 2,100 stones, intended to stop the levy according to the example of the exemption of the county, its original sit In Boji Warehouse grain, stop paying 3,470 stones of the original color of the rice, the rest of the natural color of the rice folded color of the rice 14,930 stones, the levy price of each stone is six dollars, the price of the political division of the dissolution of the cloth, the people's disease has not yet been fully Soviet; Now the defiled Lai is full of domain, and the exiles are no longer in the state, they are tired and speechless, and the upper ones are endlessly profitable. In the past, when the text was surveyed and verified in the barren fields, there were divisions that did not take the truth to correct, and now the deliberators want to ask for the exemption of the dispatch to return the warehouse, distribute the grain to The Prefecture and County, and cover the cry of pain and pain. In the past, Li Tang turned jia 'Mei Nei Su Zhan Li Ling, Daoyang Shan Jiang and Dadu, now please check the nearby prefectures and counties of each warehouse, to transfer the number of losses, and to make up for the number of losses that the county should lose, to calculate the revenue and mediate the volume of transportation, to reduce the silver on the side of the foot price of silver, but also a policy. In recent years, Luzhou has also been assigned to other places because of the heavy barn, and the officials and the people have a little convenience, which can also be held as usual, without losing Deyu's will. In Shu, Wu Jiu ruled the waste of Weir Tun Tian and collected about 200,000 stones to help the army. Although it is difficult to discuss now, in the nineteenth year of Jiajing, the five guards in Chengdu and Maozhou, Xiaohe, Weiguan and other health centers were cleared, and the newly started Ketun grain had zero 1,172 stones, and its recounting of Lu, Songpan, Guang'an, Qingqian, Yazhou, Daduhe and other health stations did not correspond to Yan, or could be filled with the number of warehouses in this county, although it could not follow the story of Wu Jie, and the suffering of Tianbao who had raised soldiers with taxes could also be relieved. In addition, the five generations of Qian Yue Jiangnan's fields, mu tax three buckets, Wang Yongyun asked mu to fight one bucket, thinking that the world is the law, the people are xian songde, for the Nandu monarch bloody war for hundreds of decades, today and tomorrow the emissaries of the Xianbu, can not still be the old xia! In the middle of the Xuande year, the prefect of Suzhou also often played the example of reducing the amount of official fields, and there was no impossible, that is, these three strategies should be added to the ears of those who can be calculated on the side of the chip. If Guizhou Yongning warehouse grain, each stone folded three horses, Jiajing thirteen years, two provinces Futai with the title of folding silver three money five points levy to solve the problem, Guizhou cloth secretary Xu need to ask for karma, is the re-levy cloth, when the time of collection, there is an incident; Liberation is on the way, and thieves, and even fragmentation or abruptness, less is not as good as the law, more losses and losses, both are inconvenient. Its shangguan folding, or suppressing the supplementary line to take the original value, often complaining, the matter should be discussed and reduced, please move to Guizhou, still folded. As for the county to listen to the poor, has been allowed to levy silver per Ding Shi one dollar and three points, the official Yu Dashao and other cheating, each Ding Shi levy more silver five points, now please check the old rules, reduce the su people's hardship.

　　---------------------------------------------------------------------- Nineteen and a half horse boats and 15,314 stones and 2 liters of grain are 15,314 stones; There are 10 boats, 17,000 grain, 1,200 stones of Wenchuan station ship grain, 880 stones of Xuanhua station [grain], and 656 stones and 09 liters of Yuebo station boat [grain]. Zhenxi Station Boat Grain 4,200 stones, Tongyou Yi Shangxia Horse Grain 3,060 stones and one bucket, Pushi Yizhong and Xiama [grain] 1,455 stones, 8 buckets, 2,100 stones, Yong'an YiZhongxia [grain] 2,100 stones, Yong'an Delivery And Transportation Defense Grain 3,186 stones and 9 buckets and 6 liters, Luzhou Water Station Up and Down Horse Grain 2,455 stones 8 bucket 4 liters, Luzhou Delivery Station Horse Boat Grain 12,000 stones, Longqiao Coach Silver 2924 coins, old woven stone shed, Li Shi, 1 Patrol Division archers, and Naxi, Niukou, Lizhuang ships, Neijiang, Anren, and Luzhou newly set up horses to help the silver and silver two stops. Although the new law is slightly less than the old one, the law is not yet prepared, and people are still tired of running for their lives, and when they are compiled, the county claims that there are 447 stones, 4 buckets, 8 liters, 7 in 6 spoons, and the discussion is preferential and exempt, then the officials cannot root out the original, and cheat in vain with dance! The husband is said to be "no official land", Tian Ben is in the official, such as rich people and many fields, recruit people to take up tenants, from the heavy loss of rent, most of them are divided equally per acre, so they should be exempted from miscellaneous errands; Imada is already in the people, and the officials have not taken much, so why should they still take this name? Since it is an official field, it has been built in ten years, why has it also been cut? If the officials are not in the south, and there is no official field and soil class to enter the county more importantly, it is still inevitable that there will be miscellaneous services, so why should this party still make it an innuendo? There are also those who hold vague old papers, saying that those who have been exempted from the household department in the previous years and listen to them, the husband and the land are changed, and the old lord is no longer the old lord in a hundred years, and the reward should also be limited, and the merit of the person who is expelled should not be long to this point, and the labor peasants, on the contrary, will be tired and effective, and serve as a supporter, so that they are rarely blessed with the benefits of restoring the family, but they do not know what to change! Taste the Zhou Li, see the system of the suburban otaku, take one out of ten, to be superior, lighter than the garden field, the sign of the far suburbs, now mixed and no different, how different from the canon of the previous kings? If the official product is used as the rule, the number of cultivators will be fixed, so that their descendants will have the shade of the household, as the recent Hu Shangshu Shining said, a method of limiting the field can be used, and gradually retro system. If the county's grain gap is heavy, in addition to being exempted, the official grain 777 stones have zero, and the remaining grain has zero 2,110 stones and six buckets, the original Longqiao Yiji silver has 2924 yuan, the Naxi Xieji silver 12, luzhou Xieji silver 22, and the new Zhenxi station boat is added to the two, and the waist station is found to be reduced, and the joint bank informs the county that it should be woven within one dollar and seven cents, and the amount of each stone is reduced within one dollar and seven cents, and the number of silver per husband is eight hundred and twenty-five silver, which is said to increase the price of grain and reduce the price, and the people's strength can be less. If the case of those who still open the official field in each state and county is cleared, not only can the number of new exemptions in the county be supplemented, but this policy is also; Or, if the case is inspected in Bazhou, Tongjiang, and other counties in Northern Sichuan Province, Xieji Luzhou, Wuping Yimafu Silver is sixty-two, and Zitong Xieji River oil and silver are forty-two each, not only to check the exchanges between officials and envoys for many years, correspondingly accommodating, adding the number of the county's original Longqiao, Naxi, and Luzhou Xieji, such as the Central Plains South Horse Case, this policy is also. Horse boat passage, stop at the level can be returned, the rest of the months are restful, Ding grain has no room for other discussions, if the red, station ship, manufacturing increase and loss is not to find the ruler, the cost of red ship repair is several times the station ship, the station boatman service is divided by half, in order to support the grain, and the red ship did not try to reduce the service; And the difference between the red boats is often small, the difference between the station ships is often more, and the compilation officials xu have to start a deception because of this, but the red ships are slightly larger, and the number of men should be stored in seven, and six should be kept, and half of them should be compiled into the station ship rudder branch, and half of them would make up for the difficulties of the Yongning dry station. Before the investigation of Hongzhi, most of the servants were grain three ding five branches, the people who covered the mouth had private dings and could be friends, and the people who performed the mu could make up for the selfless grain, and the grain profit was calculated for one year, so that the peasants could eat themselves, and the trade of Ding was transferred, and the deacons could take advantage of the surplus, at that time, the Min'an field, known as the rule of peace, and later the new happy event, wanted to change the previous law, the errands were mainly grain, and the peasants were in heavy difficulties. The law of the Zhou officials, the nine positions of the people, and the people of the concubines, concubines, and deacons to share their wealth, and the nine gifts of the field, into the capital, now make the concubines, concubines, and deacons of the people lead the mouth of the spring as a care, serve Shunong, then the will of the first king can be restored. Volume Cha Jiajing twenty-five years, inspector of the capital Yushi case inspection Rong County, with grain 757 stones, and 1,571 ding, the same compilation of boats and horses, there are still old rules, it is advisable to check and review. Still begging for the reason for the creation of the red horse boat, it is not allowed to sit without permission. It is still forbidden to reform the private service of the city, and the additional section takes the silver of the eldest husband to avoid disturbing the harm.

　　- Fuyi and Deng Jing each salt [well], a certain well saw the collapse and escape, so the well saw in, and the stove ding each had a number. The newly opened artesian well course, a certain well right class, can be used to offset the old well quota class, how to remove the collapsed virtual companion? Are there enough new and supplemented? The previous piece of the county salt tsumble discussion, Fuyi, Deng Jing each salt, a certain well saw the collapse and escape, so it is also seen in, the stove Ding each a number. The newly opened artesian well course, a certain well right class, can be used to offset the old well quota class, how to remove the collapsed virtual companion? Are there enough new pickers and redeemers? In the previous article of the county's salt fence discussion, Fuyi and Deng Jingjiu were collapsing, and their newly opened artesian flow and other well courses could be redeemed to make up for the original amount; If you want not to add, bury, add, and envy, just like the story of Yongle In the middle of the year, the earth's vein is sometimes damaged, and it is more annoying to cut the province. It is like Chenghua Zhongwang, Zhang Ergong, in recent years Pan Gong, want to be clean and can not get it, but the official gives the prison basin, and can be more woven and cast numbers, non-stove ding boiling people have no self-entry. The cost of its prison basin is not much from the recent salt fee. According to the "Zhou Li" salt people's government decree in charge of salt, it does not contain the reason for the government decree. Detailed its meaning, the official makes his own salt, and does not sell it when he eats it. Ouyang said that the benefits of the ancient mountains and the people are shared, that is, those who do not bother with labor can also be, and now the people's forces are chiseled to accompany the old amount, which is different from the Huai, Zhejiang, and Changlu stoves that boil the sea officials to sell salt. If the official receives the benefit of salt, then the stove should reduce the tax, and the situation is forbidden and taken away? Huaihuai and Zhejiang have a government of relief to collect salt; Subsequently, there was an order for the stove to sell the remaining salt for self-calculation. Now that the stove is empty, the fleeing and migrating, it is already half solid, and it can be seriously trapped? The planners of the country should know what they are worried about, and pray for the harsh loss of the people who are worried about the salt and the baby, and the gentleman who is now ashamed to call him the Five Uncles should be relieved.

　　----------------- The former piece was originally a heavy county grain, and there were many escapes, and the speakers were afraid of surviving in name only, and they still had previous tiredness, such as the meaning of children's property disputes. In the twenty-fourth year of Cha Hongwu, the amount of grain was more than 61,730 stones, and the eight years of Chenghua were 61,530 stones, and the original amount was reduced by 200 stones. In the first year of Jiajing, it suddenly increased to 62,199 stones with zero, and then an additional 468 stones were added. In the case of merger, it is not for nothing, but if there are all divisions and punishments at the first few ends, it seems that there is no need to make changes. Fu Long, the former Song Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty, who was seventy years old, wrote the Yellow Book of Juju' own book, and after Na Yu played with the words, he did not set up the edition, and the official placed the official, and limited the number of leaves a day. Nanjing Houhu, a little bit of this meaning. Now dan ming lied for the reward, and the election committee inspector, such as the story of Fu Long, and the overseer rewarded and punished him with time, or when he cut his ear slightly. The number of its additional increases, the number of days of desolation, the land is not added, all are flying tricks, so it is always scattered differently, so it will increase to this! In fact, since jiajing nongyin, this county has been flooded, and there have been many collapses in the fields along the river, which are not as good as the case of the southern river stalls, which have been tired and have increased the number of false numbers, but the tax and grain management personnel have limited the sale of silver ear fungus, please clean up and correct it. Don't have a constant plan, it seems that the years can be passed. Cui Bo is easy to fu fu sense of the mountain, quite to reach this meaning, Gai transfer issued a nationality of CunYi, in and out of the name of Baowu, this out of the internal affairs of the will, this is feasible, zhou officials eight positions, one is to listen to the political service to compare the residence, the second is to listen to the luli to the territory, the second thing can be done. The territory of its Luli is more auditable than the residents, and the political service is all good, and now do not dare to desecrate, please choose through the wealth.
