| tax the corvee burden for qin dynasty people this question, from the han dynasty to today is due to the qing dynasty government agreed that the ruler and cupidity, treat the result, but after the author, from a view of food grain of qin dynasty tax rates, tax corvee, area yield of grain and food prices after textual research found that:the qin dynasty rent grain tax levy taxes than no more than one over ten of the column, use the remains of accepted rate of one over ten since the spring and autumn period and the warring states period, impose kain and is the quota rent, and in the year of disaster, the government may be on the basis of norm grain tax reduction part of food taxes to help farmers through disasters and stabilize its ruling foundation,if the qing dynasty ordinary families can get full specified amount of arable land,100from the government to remove the government levy a tax on one over ten of the food, each about1000of the money and the family food and clothing expense later also can have a lot of surplus, but the government can not be fully granted to the people, land, sometimes people actually had cultivated land is less than the standard "men one hundred mu" half of the people, the tax burden, this virtually increases the qin dynasty and giving land shortage is the root of the qin dynasty tax burden is too heavy.the qin government since shang Yang reform was based on the agriculture, attaches great importance to food production, to ensure that food production time, national statutory corvee purveyance time generally choose later in the season in the autumn, and time is not long. Qin dynasty, however, the government formulated the meticulous rigorous law, ordinary people would inevitably touch the department, riches the redemption punishment although is one of the people means to avoid being punished, but the pay amount is too high, average smallholder families caused by a lack of government granted to the cultivated land has no surplus grain sold to the sin in the home, the people in order to waive penalty had to labor to pay back government body to redeem money, which long time is the government legal corvee labor, the increase in aeriform in time for the government to treat the people, the people of the corvee burden is heavy.It is because the government can’t according to the standard "men one hundred mu" full specified amount, granted to farmers’ land and homes (people) assign (or household) does not reduce, the citizens of the food can barely sustain a basic livelihood; At the same time, numerous, such as the autumn tea, thick as coagulate fat qin method and touch the ban to make things happen, people of the poor have no food farmers to sin had to for a long time in the form of labor, for the government in the qing dynasty government to big battle natural is not difficult to explain the financial resources of the people. Under the combination, the qing dynasty appeared "Thai half of fu","Ding Nan by armour, women turn to lose" the situation it is not surprising. |
