Implement a rest and recuperation policy
The policy of rest and recuperation means that after the great turmoil or long-term war, the rulers do not waste people's money and impose harsh laws, but adopt a policy of lenient punishment and thin taxes to safeguard people's strength and multiply population, so as to achieve the purpose of restoring and developing the economy and stabilizing their rule. Since Emperor Gaozu of Han Dynasty, after several emperors (Hui Di, Lv Hou, Wendi and Jingdi), the policy of recuperation has been implemented for 60 or 70 years. The result is "all rivers run into the sea, and the national strength is considerable." Ban Gu said, "Han Xing, clean up your troubles and share the interest with the people; As for filial piety, it is a combination of courtesy and frugality; Xiao Jing follows the industry. Between 50 and 60 years, as for changing customs, CoCo Lee is mellow. "
"The Book of Emperor Gaozu" contains: In May 202 BC, "the soldiers returned home. According to the imperial edict, the son of a vassal will be twelve years old when he is in Guanzhong (Kanto people who entered Guanzhong to annihilate Qin want to stay in Guanzhong 12 years) and will be six years old when he returns (willing to return to his hometown for six years). In front of the people, gather Bao Shanze (people who fled to Shanze during the war) and let them return to their counties, (restore) the old Jue and Tian Zhai. ..... Anyone who sells himself as a maid because of hunger is exempt from becoming a Shu Ren. The title of military officer ... those who have no title and are dissatisfied with doctors are called doctors. Therefore, the title given by the doctor is one level higher. All the seven doctors and above (officials with seven products or above) are food cities. Anyone who is not under the seven doctors should return to their homes and do nothing (the following seven doctors are exempt from their own and their families). "
