Chapter 652: The Son of Heaven is not good!

Before the birth of iron tools, it was not easy to cultivate, and the cultivation method of "coupling farming" was formed, and people often cooperated with hundreds or thousands of people to cultivate the fields, "public field public planting", which is the so-called well field system.

Fangli and well, the well is 900 acres, of which it is public land, and the eight families are all private 100 acres, raising public land together, and then dare to govern private affairs.

That is to say, under the well field system, one-ninth of the fields belong to the public land, and must be offered to the Son of Heaven.

In the case of insufficient productivity, people can only rely on cooperative labor "coupling farming", and under collective labor, people naturally cultivate the land together.

But with iron tools, the family can reclaim wasteland and cultivate food, and in this case, no one wants to work more for the public land, and even if they do, it is perfunctory, so as to free up time to cultivate their own private land.

This was true not only of the common people, but also of the princes of one side, who were more willing to send slaves to cultivate private land even if the "well fields" were fertile, and they also collected rent and taxes on the private fields cultivated by the common people.

After all, there is no need to pay tribute to the Son of Heaven in private fields, the grain grown is his own, isn't the rice fragrant, who wants to give it in.

This trend is extremely obvious, at first it was only a few remote princes who did not report to the Son of Heaven and secretly cultivated private land, but with the popularization of iron tools, this trend became more and more obvious.

Although the Emperor of Heaven was in full swing, few people dared to abandon the public land and not cultivate, but the public land was overgrown with weeds, and the reduction of grain production became inevitable.

The summer dynasty as a whole became rich, but the emperor of heaven was poor.

Not to mention anything else, food is the top priority, and the nine cloud divisions under the command of the Son of Heaven are the nine elite divisions of the five grades, and every army is a huge amount of food, which has led to the reason why the Emperor of Heaven ushered in a food crisis and a financial crisis.

After listening to Yao Yun and Sun Muyue's explanation, the bald dragon immediately realized, his face was quite strange, and he said to the second elder Wu Dao: "Wu Er, it seems that the Son of Heaven is not interesting, not to mention anything else, the emperor is also fighting in all directions to protect the Celestial Empire, but the result is good, no one cultivates land and grows grain for him." ”

The bald dragon despises the tone of the people of the world, although he looks at the emperor twilight, but this time he stands on the side of the emperor, this time he conquered Xirong, the son of heaven led the cloud master to fight with the countries of the Western Wilderness for more than a month, and the victory was in front of him.

The bald dragon shook his head and said to Yao Yun: "It's boring, it's boring, Shizi, we don't deserve this day, we can't stand this grievance!"

Everyone laughed when they heard this, and even Sun Muyue, who is known as the Iron Lady, pursed her lips and snickered, and said, "Uncle Long, the king is not the Son of Heaven yet, what kind of heart are you." ”

"That's indisputable, Shizi, if you are the Son of Heaven, seeing this group of guys in the dog and fly camp worrying about their labor, whether they are losing or not, no wonder the emperor was born early, it is not worth it, it is not worth it!" The bald dragon seemed to understand the true meaning of life at this moment, and looked down on the grand wish of chasing "supporting the son of the world to ascend to the throne of God" in the past.

Yao Yun couldn't help but be happy, I have to say that what the bald dragon said makes sense, the co-ruler of the world sounds wonderful, but after really sitting on the throne of God, he will realize that the Son of Heaven is not easy to be.

However, Yao Yun was not surprised that the collapse of the well field system was expected, this is an objective law.

"Uncle Long, in fact, this is not to blame the people and the princes of all parties, but most of the living beings seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, this is nature, the people can't eat enough, who has time to worry about the overall situation of the Celestial Empire. ”

"This is also true, the people of the world are poor, and with iron tools, they can cultivate more food, so they are naturally tight on their own survival needs. The bald dragon bowed slightly, agreeing with Yao Yun's statement.

The second elder said with a smile: "I am afraid that the problems exposed by this expedition to Xirong have attracted the attention of the Emperor of Heaven, and I am afraid that soon the Son of Heaven will make some moves, warning the princes of the world not to waste the public land, and it is inevitable that some princes will be punished at that time." ”

When the second elder said this, his expression was relaxed, and he didn't think it was a big deal to see the lively people.

Because of the land reform, the well field system existed in name only, and all the land was distributed to the people for cultivation, and there was no public land at all, but in order not to "fall into the mouth", give people a handle, Xi Guo cultivated the field and paid tribute in accordance with the "well field system", taking one of the nine and supplying it to the Son of Heaven.

Not to mention other rare tributes, just the grain, the grain supplied by the Xi Kingdom is definitely among the best, and no one can point out the fault.

No matter how angry the Son of Heaven is now, his anger can't be spread on Xiguo.

No one is worried that the Son of Heaven will hold Xiguo accountable for changing the Jingtian system without authorization, paying tribute is the last word, Xiguo has made a lot of offerings, and the Son of Heaven naturally has nothing to say.

In this situation, the Son of Heaven wishes that all the princes in the world could pay tribute to Xiguo.

.......

The imperial capital Yunshi, the Golden Palace of the Son of Heaven, and the Emperor Dusk, the Son of Heaven who returned to the dynasty, was furious and asked the ministers.

"In recent years, the grain output of the summer dynasty has increased year by year, why is it that only the grain production of the public land has not increased;

What is the reason for the fact that the grain paid by the countries is decreasing year by year;

With the help of iron oxen ploughing, the cultivated land cultivated by various countries has multiplied day by day, why are there few new well fields reported to the Celestial Empire;

Ladies and gentlemen, tell me what's going on in the world... Could it be that they want to rebel?"

In the end, Emperor Tianzi's tone was cold, although his voice was not loud, but it gave endless coercion to the ministers under the ranks, and the ministers were silent and did not dare to make a sound, and the atmosphere in the golden palace suddenly cooled down.

The ministers in the main hall naturally understood in their hearts, but no one dared to say it, did they want to tell the Son of Heaven that the princes and people of all parties secretly cultivated private land and had no intention of cultivating public land?

Isn't this looking for death!

Spread things out, few princes in the world have clean butts.

This layer of window paper, once punctured, it will be a monstrous flood, pouring thousands of miles.

In the main hall, the ministers looked at their noses and noses one by one, and their noses looked at their hearts, and they couldn't even hear the sound of breathing, and they could hear the needles dropping.

Emperor Tianzi looked around, saw that everyone did not answer, pointed to Situ Xixinghou and asked: "Xixinghou, you are Situ, tell me, what is the reason?"

When Xixinghou saw the name of the Son of Heaven, his face was even more ugly than crying, and he stood up for a long time, and then he held back a sentence: "Qiyu Shengshang, the cover is broken because of the Jingtian system." ”

"Why did the Ida system collapse?" the Son of Heaven continued to ask.

"This...."Xixinghou was about to come out in a cold sweat: "The minister thought that it was because the people of the world had the help of iron weapons and could cultivate private land alone, so they were unwilling to cultivate the king's field." ”

Emperor Twilight of the Son of Heaven naturally knew this, so he continued to ask:

"Since you know it well, why is the public land abandoned, the private land is concealed and not reported, and the Jingtian system collapses!"

In the face of the Son of Heaven's questioning, the ministers' faces turned pale, their hearts were panicked, and the Son of Heaven was furious!

At this moment, Jiang Gong stood up and said, "Holy Lord, the collapse of the Ida system lies in the fact that someone has brought a bad head. ”

"Oh~ Jiang Gong, you are talking about it, who is the leader?"

"Qiqi Shengshang, Xiyun Hou Yao Yun!"
