Chapter 37: Please transfer the county order
"Father-in-law Xia, those officers in Liaodong Town have joined forces to slander me, and what they said is completely out of sight. "Feng Ye pushes two-six-five, anyway, he is a hob meat, and if he doesn't admit it, it's over. Even if all the ministers and emperors knew it, who could do anything to him?
If you are in a hurry, you will rebel. As for those nest soldiers in Liaodong Town, it's not that Feng Ye looks down on them, if those wastes dare to go out of the city to fight, Feng Ye can defeat their 100,000 troops with the three thousand Dongning iron cavalry in his hand.
are all pig teammates, foreign enemies dare not attack, drag their own people and never fall behind. With these pig teammates by his side, Feng Ye certainly didn't dare to lead the army north again, maybe these pig teammates would stab themselves in the back again.
Anyway, there was already a good harvest, Feng Ye simply accepted it when he saw it. Digest the meat in your mouth first, so as not to eat too much in one bite and suffer from indigestion. Divide the land, divide the wife, this kind of thing, used to recruit people, the effect is not said.
In just over a month, thousands of young people have come to Dongning. These people all came from the nearby town of Liaodong because of the proximity. And people from afar kept hearing the news and rushed over from the Central Plains and Jiangnan. The arrival of these people has greatly increased the popularity of the entire Dongning, and there are gradually signs of transformation from a military town to a county seat.
However, the arrival of these people has also brought many new problems. Although these people have all kinds of people of all religions, they all have one thing in common, poverty. It's not that the poor can't survive, who would want to run to a place like the Nine Sides where war will happen at any time?
This undoubtedly brought problems to Dongning's public security, but fortunately, now Feng Ye has transferred two thousand Dongning iron horsemen into the city to patrol every day. Only then did the law and order be suppressed.
And many people have no place to live after coming, but fortunately it's summer, and you can live in a grass hut casually. From this point, it can be seen that Dongning's ability to govern is not good, and there is no foresight at all. As the population of Dongning grows more and more, Xiao Dezi's two strokes are completely insufficient.
Dealing with the complicated affairs of a place, although Xiao Dezi and Xue Baochai can handle some of them, they are still in a hurry and have a lot of mistakes. Feng Ye looked at the pile of official documents on the table with a headache.
"I just want to be an unfettered and unrestrained prince, and I don't have any ambitions, how did I get to where I am today?" Feng Ye couldn't help but ask himself, he has now completely changed from a carefree prince who doesn't care about things to a small warlord force.
"Dealing with these messy things every day, do I still want to cultivate, when can I go home? Recruit people, you must recruit people!" Feng Ye said to himself with determination.
"Xiao Dezi, how do you think we can find the kind of talent who can handle political affairs with ease?" Feng Ye asked.
But Xiao Dezi has been by his side since he was a child, just like him, and his eyes are black from the top and bottom. Where do you know how to go?
"Your Highness, you don't have any objections anyway, otherwise, let's let the imperial court send a capable county commander over!" Xiao Dezi came up with an extremely unreliable idea.
Xue Baochai actually nodded again and again beside her, obviously she didn't want Feng Ye's conflict with the court to make too much trouble. After all, in their opinion, Feng Ye had nothing but the population and land of the thousands of households in the fiefdom of Dongningwei, so he was really poor and white.
The only force is only 3,000 cavalry, although the combat power is good, but compared with the hundreds of thousands of troops of the imperial court, it is still a drop in the bucket, and fighting against the imperial court is like a mantis arm. It's just that the current emperor, after all, is His Royal Highness's father, so he has repeatedly tolerated His Highness's nonsense.
Feng Ye didn't think about letting the imperial court send officials, the question was that if the imperial court sent officials and collected taxes at that time, would Feng Ye stay, or would he hand them over to the imperial court? Because the three thousand Dongning Iron Cavalry belonged to Feng Ye's private army, the imperial court would not give a grain of grain. There is no tax from Dongningwei to raise. What to eat, what to drink?
When Feng Ye mentioned this doubt to the two of them, Xue Baochai covered his mouth and chuckled: "The husband is really confused, it should be the tax of the imperial court, so it will naturally be handed over to the imperial court, but didn't the husband newly reclaim 100,000 acres of fertile land this year?"
These fields were originally ownerless, and if you make a land deed, aren't these fields all the private land of the husband? Since this Dongningwei is the fief of the husband, of course, our Dongning County Mansion does not have to pay taxes. ”
Feng Ye looked at Xue Baochai, who was smiling in surprise, and asked, "Where is there still 100,000 acres of fertile land, haven't they all been distributed?"
"The husband is confused, it is 100,000 acres of fertile land, how can it be such a cheap outsider. The concubines made a rule with them that after paying the amount of grain each year, the land would be owned by them after five years.
If they don't, they have to pay interest every year. According to Fujun's prediction, Donghu will inevitably be deducted at the end of the year, and these people will not be able to complete the task. In the end, they will be converted into tenants of the royal mansion of Dongning County. ”
Xue Baochai's education since he was a child is like this, how to squeeze the people at the bottom is really a family history. Especially the greed for the land, which is really engraved in their bones.
In their opinion, Daliang has a strong national strength and a population, and as long as they have land, they can recruit as many tenants and slaves as they want. As long as a natural disaster occurs, a large number of people become tenants and slaves.
In Feng Ye's concept since he was a child, what is the land or something, what is it? The planets in the starry sky are infinite, and with the technological level of the Demon God Federation, it is quite simple to transform a planet. Therefore, things like land are not valuable.
Therefore, he does not value it. He values people more. Only with a larger population can we occupy more planets and lands. This is also the concept of the entire Demon God Federation.
Feng Ye shook his head and said to Xue Baochai: "No need to do this, I said that I would give these lands to these people, these people risked their lives to come to Dongning, how can I break my word and get fat? Even if these people's grain is not paid in full after five years, don't charge them interest, let them make up the grain they owe later." ”
"As long as our powerful Dongning Iron Horse is here, there will naturally be more land. This year, we can cultivate 100,000 acres of fertile land, and we can do the same next year. Moreover, the credibility of our Dongning County Royal Mansion cannot be ruined because of this 100,000 acres of fertile land. Feng Ye said categorically.
Seeing that Xue Baochai still wanted to persuade him, Feng Ye waved his hand and said, "There is no need to discuss this matter. Just do as I say. ”
Seeing that the situation was wrong, Xiao Dezi immediately changed the topic and asked, "Your Highness, do you still want to do the matter of applying for the transfer of county orders from the imperial court?"
Feng Ye rubbed his forehead, thought for a while and said, "Forget it, let's transfer the county order from the imperial court." Solve the problem at hand first, and then wait for the tax collection to see how it goes. If the grain is not enough, the imperial court will not be taxed, and in Dongning, which is an acre and three points of land, will it be the turn of a foreign county order to say it?"
Feng Ye also thought about it, the big deal is that the court blames him, what else can he do? Can his relationship with the court be worse than now?
