() "If there is really no way but to use the free people, they have no land, let them develop the Zhou Yuan, give them a civilian identity, you can attract the surrounding free people, but this will make the other surrounding princes unhappy the most. There are cracks in the newly established rapprochement. Mo Wentian frowned and didn't say.

"I also have concerns about this, so I can't make up my mind. Ji said.

"You two are not tired of calculating this and that all day long, don't we still have 150,000 civilians and beloveds, develop some cultivation around Zhoucheng first, graze in other places first, develop a little bit of development, and you can't eat a fat man in one mouthful. "Jiang Zhaoxi has changed a lot these days, he looks graceful and luxurious, and he is full of wisdom.

"By the way, the people who came with us can't be lazy, these people have gone through ups and downs with us, working hard all winter, when I went to various countries, I saw that the 50,000 people who repaired the passes, all of them were those who came with us, and those five or six-year-old children were working in the ice and snow, which made me very moved.

There is also Zhou Cheng, these people don't get paid for their work at all, they just want to save some money and food for our Zhou country. These people are the most sincere. Mo Wentian said.

"I'm struggling with that, too. No reward is too much, Xiaotian, how do you think we should warm their hearts?" Ji said with a frown.

"In this life, people are either for fame or profit, these people come to have a good life, their wishes are very simple, and they are very realistic. Let's give them one that's a little higher than they expected. Mo Wentian said.

"You mean, noble?" Ji said with a smile.

"The two of us can think of anything together, the nobility is just a reputation, 150,000 people have become nobles, for a Zhou city as big as ours, it is still a few, a drop of development is very large, there is no problem with this city to put down a million people. ”

"Then it's decided. ”

"It's all aristocrats, who is going to reclaim the land?" Jiang Zhaoxi was a little incomprehensible.

"There is land outside Zhoucheng, reward them, let them figure out their own way, they are all from poverty, they will never look at the land of people barren, and it is stipulated that there is no nomadism within a hundred miles of Zhoucheng, reward them with enough money, and give each family a large compound. We don't have to worry about the rest. Mo Wentian said.

"It's also so irresponsible. Jiang Zhaoxi obviously hasn't adapted to the graceful atmosphere yet.

"We don't care what they eat. What should be given is given, and the rest is not their business. ”

"You don't need to explain this to your mother-in-law, she doesn't move, her duty is the palace, and the rest is not under his control. Resting commoners and beloved people became aristocrats, and the old nobles must have had an opinion. Ji said.

"That's a matter of no way, inject new blood, eliminate old blood, Zhou Guo can be young forever, or he will be old. Fortunately, now we have just established the country, everything is new, the old families have official positions, all have merits, within ten miles of Zhoucheng, the reward is the new nobles, the old nobles are divided to ten miles away, in the push out, on the establishment of farms. The arable land spread outward, the livestock gradually decreased, and the final goal was to retreat the livestock to the outside of the town's remote pass. ”

"That's it. ”

"After the establishment of the country, the title must be established, and the title is divided into real and virtual titles. For example, my Mo Marquis is a virtual lord and has no fief. Shijue will have to give the fief, and the fief will be changed. Shijue has a hereditary system and a personal system, and the hereditary line shall not exceed five generations, and if there is no merit within five generations, this hereditary system will be eliminated, so that the Zhou State will always be fresh and full of vitality. ”

"How to divide the title, I am a marquis. Ji frowned.

"I have traveled many kingdoms, and none of them is a prince to be a prince and a king to be king. In Zhou Yuan, you are the king of Zhou, I summarized the title settings of various countries, and I think it is more appropriate to set up the prince and uncle. ”

"Okay, that's it, this title was handed down from ancient times, Emperor Shang changed the viscount to no viscount, what's the use of not having a child to ask for a title. That's it. As for the division of credit, let them decide the three divisions, and in the end we are making a decision. Ji finally smiled.

The conference was held at the training ground, and Mo Wentian stood on a high platform, overlooking the crowd below, these people were all the people who had followed all the way, and there were also those nobles.

"Now, the ice and snow are beginning to melt, we can't always build the city and the buildings of Zhoucheng, that will do sit and eat the mountains, so, our era of mass production is coming, everyone follows Xibohou all the way to the west, hard work, suffered a lot, shed a lot of blood and sweat, it is time for us to enjoy the fruits of victory. ”

The applause from the people below was thunderous, and it lasted for a quarter of an hour before stopping.

Mo Wentian waited for everyone to calm down, and then said: "For the common people and good people, along the way, hard work and high achievements, you are already the pillar of the Zhou country, and the Zhou country will come to this day because of your dedication. Therefore, the Xibohou thought carefully that no actual reward could show respect to you, and finally decided"

Mo Wentian paused, looked around, looked at the expectant eyes of the people, and then said, "Congratulations to the Ministry for being promoted to a noble!"

"Good!"

As soon as Mo Wentian's voice fell, everyone cheered loudly, even those old nobles also congratulated those new nobles, in their hearts, these people really deserve this glory. At the same time, Mo Wentian was also paying attention to them, angering this master, and their good days were over.

After a while, Mo Wentian said: "The aristocratic costumes have been made for the sake of giving, and now they are now distributed, there is a changing room at the edge of the venue, everyone change their clothes, and we will have a meeting in a while." ”

The guards pushed carts of clothes, entered the venue, the clothes had been divided, and asked the person in charge of the family to come and collect it, and a bag belonged to the whole family. There are both adults and children.

Some of them are inseparable, so they will be sealed for the time being, and the guards will send them in person after the meeting is over. When those people left, the square was empty, and Mo Wentian ordered the guards to set up tables in the square and prepare food.

The people who had changed their clothes came back and found their place to kneel and sit down, each with a table to finish the aristocratic etiquette.

"It fits perfectly. ”

"Lao Liu, you're not talking nonsense, at that time, each of us measured our height and waist circumference, tailor-made, of course, it fits, our lord, it's good. A man at the table next to him said.

"I said that those tailors measured so carefully, I see!Hahaha, we are also nobles, I never dreamed that we would follow the lord all the way to the west, just to eat a full stomach, but I didn't expect that suddenly we would become a golden phoenix. ”

Everyone changed their clothes, folded the old clothes and put them away, and no one was willing to throw them away. Mo Wentian nodded secretly, these people are simple.

Mo Wentian clapped his hands, the meals came up one by one, and he was busy surviving, it was two hours, and it was already noon.

"As soon as you put on the aristocratic clothes, your temperament will change one by one, and sure enough, people with clothes and horses with saddles, you will all be entered into the clan, and the clan elders will teach you to be expensive in the future

Clan etiquette, we must learn hard, and we can't embarrass the nobles of our Zhou Kingdom. ”

"No! Obey the orders of the great master. ”

"If you become a noble, you naturally have to have a noble courtyard, and each family will reward a courtyard in Zhoucheng City, and the guards will issue the number after a while. With the courtyard, there is naturally a nobleman's use, and everyone will be rewarded with 100,000 pieces of spirit jade no matter how big or small, and this guard will also issue it.

These are not counted, within a range of ten miles around Zhoucheng, each person will be rewarded with one hectare of land, and this land has been measured and distributed, and everyone will go and collect it.

Si Nong has also prepared farming tools for everyone, and has allocated cattle and horses, which are all trained and mature, for this farming.

Sima also prepared a horse for you, nobles, you have to ride a horse when you go out, and the vehicle is ready, our wives are all noblewomen, and you have to take a car when you go out, and it is not decent. ”

Mo Wentian's series of rewards made those nobles who had just been promoted a little happy and at a loss. A series of shocks seemed to put them in the clouds, and it seemed to be a dream, and many people secretly pinched themselves to prove that they were not dreaming.

After rewarding the new nobles, Mo Wentian looked at the old nobleman who was sitting upright.

"You are also hard-working, rewards are necessary, ten miles away, will be your family fiefs, these fiefs are permanent, each is a hundred hectares, the land has been measured, and the other rewards are equal to the new nobles. What do you think?" Mo Wentian asked, staring at them.

"Cai! Xie Guozhu, Xie Guoshi. ”

These people have already followed Mo Wentian to get a lot of substantial benefits, just the treasure building, let them have tens of thousands of spiritual jade income every day, reward them or not, they don't care, with the rewarded land, although it is farther away, but they all have horses, they don't care about these.

Well, about the reward for the contribution of the nobles, let's stop here, now it is the reward of merit, all the way down the big and small battles are endless, some have sacrificed their lives for this, although these are the fate of the nobles, but their descendants should be treated well, rest the orphans and widows, the state will support, and the specific arrangements will be made by the lord of the country himself.

Then Mo Wentian read the names of the people one by one, these people have small credits, children will enter the variety hall, learn various academics, and are taught by the Qing cultivators hired by the state, the starting point will be very high, and their future achievements can be imagined.

If the merit is great, the child will inherit his title. Along the way, no one has been rewarded, from ordinary soldiers to guards, as well as various generals, Mo Wentian commented one by one, rewarded one by one, and tirelessly.

The reward will last for three days, and then it will be knighted.

"Ji Qianlin, Ji Xingye, Ji Moscale, Ji Zhou, brave in battle, a thousand commanders, and a baron. All of the Blizzard are barons, and this baron includes those who have left the Blizzard to serve in the War Department.

Xin Kai and Taixuan have outstanding achievements and are viscounts. Sande built the town of Yuanguan with outstanding achievements and was named Viscount, gathered and managed Zhoucheng, orderly, and was named Viscount.

Nangong Lie has outstanding achievements, the great leader of Feixuewei, the Earl Feng, Xin Dingmao, Taipinghai have meritorious service and attack excellence, and the hereditary baron of the Earl Title, one of the descendants can be selected, regardless of whether there is merit or not, you can serve as Xibohou after you pass away, of course, this can only be received after you die. The baron's fief is a hundred miles away, and the land has been measured, ten miles per person.

Nangong Lie, Hong Renqing, and Ji Fei served as the three divisions for hard work, and the three of them were made earls, and Hong Renqing and Ji Fei led the hereditary barons, with a fief of twenty miles. Nangong Lie led the Viscount of the Prince, with a fief of fifty miles. ”
