Chapter 14 Agrarian Reform (Request for Votes)
This group of people woke up, looked at their beds, and fell into a long state of bewilderment.
Am I not at the dinner party?
How did I get home?
I don't remember what happened last night?
Then these people kept up in a state of confusion to eat and work, until they heard the news of the death of Wang Ping, Zhang Yi and others, and then they realized that they were hanging out in front of the ghost gate last night.
Some of the timid ones immediately turned pale and almost fainted.
And some of the bold ones are also a little untenable, and their brains are quickly turning to prepare how to please Liu Zheng.
Who would have thought that this new county magistrate, who everyone didn't pay much attention to, suddenly gave them a big move after being silent for a month.
And this big move directly overturned their three leaders, how could this not make them panic?
And just then, Lees came!
Li Si clearly knew how to take advantage of the fear in the hearts of these people, so in one day, the officials of all sizes in Han County saw Li Si's methods, and the people who were imprisoned and waited for the fate almost filled the prison in Han County.
However, Li Si is not unkind, and those who commit minor crimes, Li Si allows them to break some money to solve the disaster.
This is still due to the fact that the number of new officials is not enough, so these people's lives are spared.
As for those wealthy merchant families in Han County, Li Si only needs to go to the guest for a cup of tea and receive a batch of valuable gifts.
The two sides are also not surprised, and no one has broken through the door.
In this way, Li Si perfectly completed the task assigned by Liu Zheng.
On Wang Qian's side, he encountered a slight obstacle.
Because the treatment of local soldiers in Qingguo was quite good, the large-scale disarmament immediately caused a riot in the barracks.
However, Wang Qian's solution is also very simple, that is, kill!
After the killing, these people will be sober.
However, this is exactly what happened.
In an era when the rule of law is not perfect, human life is cheaper than dogs, and hundreds of people die silently.
Wang Jian was not afraid that the families of these rioting soldiers would come to make trouble, and dared to come just to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
A family is meant to be neat!
After dealing with the smoky local army, Wang Jian then arranged for the Iron Eagle Ruishi to go to the streets and alleys to maintain order, and not let some young people take advantage of this turmoil to do evil.
However, there was really a group of gangsters who took the opportunity to make trouble, and Wang Jian was killed in the street and bled all over the street, so frightened that the neighbors hid in the house and did not dare to make a sound.
So it didn't take long for Wang Jian to have a folk title, called "Living Yama King".
With the passage of time, Wang Qian's title has not been forgotten, but has become more and more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
In the end, it was surprising that it was able to help the children stop crying at night, but that's for another time.
Wang Jian also successfully completed the task, and in the end, only Liu Zheng was left.
Liu Zheng studied the current agricultural and commercial taxes in Qingguo, as well as the various benefits of the people in Han County.
Liu Zheng suddenly discovered.
Dynasties and generations seem to be the same, and even the alien world cannot escape the exploitation of peasants and merchants.
And Han County is even stricter in this regard, Liu Zheng finally knows why there are so few people in Han County.
Even in ancient China, a county was hundreds of thousands of households, not to mention such a vast otherworld, and the people in a county were actually like this.
At that time, Liu Zheng was very puzzled, but now he finally understands.
If you are good to the people, the people will naturally be willing to move in, but if you are not good to the people, you can only move out, how can you attract people to come.
Reform, must be reformed!
For example, the hidden benefits of the academy, Liu Zheng can't take care of it.
He wants the people to see the tangible benefits that can be brought to their own hands.
Only tangible benefits can retain these honest farmers.
If you want to reform Han County, the first step to do is to reform the fields.
As a farmer, you can't do without the word field.
Qin Dynasty's set, he is not ready to use it, the limitations are too great.
The other land reforms that Liu Zheng knew of were the tuntian system and the uniform land system.
One is the reform of land during the Cao Wei period, and the other is the reform of land during the Tang Dynasty.
And the reason why Liu Zheng knew these two methods was because he once wrote a novel that traveled to the Three Kingdoms, when the protagonist joined Cao Wei's camp.
The plot of the design is that someone in Cao Wei proposed the tuntian system, and the protagonist proposed the tuntian system, and finally Cao Cao chose the tuntian system, but at the same time, Cao Cao still gave the protagonist a field for experimenting with the tuntian system, and finally the protagonist successfully slapped his face, and the yield per mu of the uniform field system abused the tuntian system, and Cao Cao also immediately accepted the protagonist's uniform field system.
This is why Liu Zheng knew about two approaches to land reform.
But after all, the novel is just a novel, and it is a flipped plot designed to form a cool feeling, in fact, the two land reforms are superior and inferior, and it is still necessary to think carefully about who is superior.
On paper, it is shallow.
It is better to believe in a book than to have no book at all.
It is impossible for Liu Zheng to copy the Tuntian system or the Juntian system, and he has to analyze the specific situation on a case-by-case basis.
The advantage of the cantonment system is that it can quickly scavenge a large amount of grain and grass for armament in times of war.
Of course, the disadvantages are obvious.
The loss of a large number of people and the damage to the peasants' enthusiasm for farming are irreparable.
However, I have to admit that relying on the tuntian system, Cao Cao got a large amount of grain, so it laid the foundation for the rise of Cao Wei's power.
As for the Juntian system, it originated in the Tang Dynasty, when the country was peaceful and the people were safe, and the development of the Juntian system was extremely smooth, and the effect was also very amazing.
Of course, there are also disadvantages, that is, the grain and grass gathered in a short period of time are definitely not as much as those of the tuntian system, but it is better than the long-term flow.
But the war is about to break out in the short term, and Liu Zheng is afraid that there will not be enough food and grass.
But Liu Zheng's entanglement did not last long, and he did not choose to exploit the people in the end.
Prosperity, the people suffer, death, the people suffer!
He Liu Zheng didn't make that little bit of bad food and grass, it was all the blood and sweat of the people!
I still remember the eight peasants and two farmers in the Cao Wei period, and I don't know how many peasant families were separated from their wives and eaten.
Liu Zheng has seen with his own eyes that some people can actually lose weight to the bone, and he has also seen thousands of miles of red land, and there is not even tree bark and turf left.
So he ended the two hundred years of turmoil in the Seven Kingdoms, so he became Qin Shi Huang, so he became the first emperor of the ages recognized in the hearts of later generations!
Other emperors may have been controversial, but he deserved it!
Liu Zheng finally decided to popularize the equalization system, and the land could be completely handed over to the peasants, and even a ten-year or hundred-year contract could be signed.
But the yield per mu is different, he will charge different taxes, and the more you grow, the less taxes you will have.
Of course, this system also takes into account the family situation and whether there is a soldier in the family.
It will also divide military fields, farmland, and commercial fields.
Military fields are naturally planted by soldiers, and soldiers who can't farm are not good soldiers!
Farmland doesn't need to be explained.
And Shangtian is a field that can be rented, and Liu Zheng is ready to rely on Shangtian to make a sum of money to fill in the government treasury.
Of course, the tax rate for reclaiming wasteland is the lowest, with only one official and nine farmers.
However, some wasteland is very dangerous, and if you want to clear the danger, you can only lease the army.
As for the price...
When the time comes, you can pay a little more tax.
Liu Zheng can be said to have thought of it inside and out.
And these things are not what Li Si is good at, so Li Si can only admire after reading it.
The wisdom of future generations should not be underestimated!
