Chapter 1253: Policy Attraction

For Liuye, one very fortunate point was that the Leader he was currently talking to happened to be someone who did not reject joining Huaxia; now, after being persuaded by Liuye like this, well, he was very expectant and wanted to join Huaxia sooner.

The people watching around were also mostly moved; the hardliners were afraid of being influenced and chose to leave quickly, as in their hearts, they mainly could not let go of the name of the Suiren Clan, could not let go of their identity as the Suiren Clan, so what did suffering a little bit matter?

Seeing that his friend had this idea, Liuye went straight to the topic and began to introduce the people behind him: "Brother, look at them, they are the ones who came from Huaxia, and their purpose in coming this time is to take some of our Suiren Clan people over, because they have a lot of land there that no one is farming."

I will also explain to you clearly what farming is; they said that the land is given directly to you, and for the first year, they will give you food directly, and they will also give you tools and help you build houses and such.

Houses? Houses are like the ones our Tribal Chief has, they definitely won't be bad!"

The Sanxin tribesman's eyes widened, and he quickly poked Liuye lightly and said: "At first, it's impossible to build such good ones; at first, they will definitely be a bit worse, and it will take a few years to slowly build them well."

Liuye knew everything and was clear about everything, but when the Huaxia people said it like that, didn't it seem more real? So Liuye hurriedly added: "Ah, yes, at first there won't be such good houses; it will take a few years to slowly build them well, after all, such good houses are not easy to build, right? The house Huaxia City built for our Tribal Chief hasn't even been fully finished yet, and it's been how long, right?"

"But you have seen the houses; our Tribal Chief's house is so good, so what if you wait a few years? Once that house is built, you won't need to rebuild it until you die; look at our houses again, they might need to be rebuilt as soon as it rains."

That Leader knew it definitely couldn't be that good, but the one thing he cared about most was: "Then our houses, do they have that kind of very transparent thing called Glass?"

The Sanxin tribesman hurriedly said: "Yes, this will definitely be there; even for the worst houses, they will definitely give Glass. That is called Glass, and Glass is very, very abundant in Huaxia, not lacking at all. When you build a house, you can definitely be given Glass to use; if you want a courtyard as good as your Tribal Chief's, you definitely have to wait a few years."

Liuye snatched the right to speak and continued: "Oh, this will definitely not be bad in Huaxia; the most important thing is the food. You only need to plant Grass in the soil and don't need to do anything else; when the time comes, you just harvest it, and you won't have to worry about not having food for the whole year."

The first year, they will give you food, so don't be afraid of going hungry.

It won't be until a few years later that you need to pay taxes to them; in these few years, no matter how much food you grow, it is all yours, and besides, when you are free, you can go hunting or go fishing, right? You will get richer and richer."

Liuye turned his head and asked the Sanxin tribesman: "By the way, how many years are you tax-exempt, and how much tax do you collect afterwards?"

Because the tax policy is very complicated, especially since they all adopted Huaxia's tiered tax system—the more land, the more tax collected. If a family of five has only one mu of land, this one mu is directly tax-exempt; ten people with two mu of land, these two mu are also tax-exempt.

Huaxia has a starting threshold calculated by population; an average of one mu of land for five people is tax-exempt, and once it reaches over twenty mu of land, land tax begins to be levied, because if you have more land, it means your family is definitely not poor.

Even if the population is large, it will still be taxed; so many people cannot all be farmers, and wages are also taxed in a tiered manner, with a cap of 35%, ensuring the interests of some harder-working Nobles while also balancing income.

It is precisely because the tax policy is too complicated that even if it is explained to Huaxia people, they might not necessarily understand it or be able to calculate it, so the Sanxin tribesman just used the simplest words to say: "For the first five years, not a single grain of food will be collected; starting from the sixth year, 10% is collected, and it gradually increases afterwards; the three-year period is consistent with Huaxia's policy."

That Leader tilted his head: "What does that mean?"

The people around also jeered and shouted loudly: "What does it mean, what does it mean?"

The Sanxin tribesman was a bit anxious and wanted to explain, but for a moment it was so chaotic that he couldn't say anything.

It was still Liuye who had the ability; he raised his hand to let everyone be quiet, and then explained loudly: "It means that in the first five years, the first year, the food you eat is all given by Huaxia, all given by these people; the second year it's gone, you eat the food you grow yourselves."

"As long as you work hard, one year is enough to make you never have to go hungry again; for the next four years, however much food you grow is all your own, and you don't have to give it to anyone."

"These few years are enough for you to save countless amounts of food; starting from the sixth year, the food you grow must be handed over to Huaxia by one-tenth; that is, if you have ten fruits, you have to give one to Huaxia, and the rest are all yours."

Someone around was unhappy: "Why should we hand over our own food!"

Liuye also said testily: "Do you keep your own food now? Whatever food you get, don't you have to hand it over first? Have you ever saved any food yourself?"

The people around immediately stopped making noise, because they still practiced collective labor and collective distribution; capable people didn't necessarily get to eat much more, and more was still distributed to the various Leaders.

The tribes around were also collectively distributed, but they still had to take out a lot and send it over regularly so that they could maintain the status quo of belonging to the Suiren Clan and being ruled by the Suiren Clan.

Not only did they not want to stop paying, but they also wanted to keep paying and pay more, so that their status would be stable, their identity would be stable, and their identity as the Suiren Clan could always be maintained. In such a barbaric era, having the backing of a powerful, ancient tribe not only brought honor but also a sense of security.

When meeting other tribes, once you say we are the Suiren Clan, then others must give you a few more points of respect and will also fear you, because they know their own tribe cannot beat the Suiren Clan, so this is one benefit.

After Liuye's explanation, well, the people around understood and grasped it, and they stopped arguing, just feeling that it was a bit unreal, after all, this was a bit too good.

"Liuye, you can't lie to me; can we really keep this food ourselves and not have to hand it all over?"

Liuye patted his brother's thigh: "Really, you can rest assured, and one point that is different from us is that they can keep the food in individual hands, not in the tribe's hands. If you go, you also have your own food, and your tribesmen also have their own food; it's not like you have to hand it over to you and then let you distribute it down, it's not like that."

"But a Leader like you will definitely be able to get a larger share and be able to have more benefits."
