Chapter 108: The Summarizer of Slavery
A feast of slave scrambling was over, and everyone began to look forward to the beginning of the next grand event, all looking forward to the victory of the next war.
Although this is inhumane, the interests are above all else, including the hypocritical humanity, and everyone is ready to soothe their ashamed hearts by treating themselves as slaves with kindness.
After ten days, Loudi didn't take a penny, but took a cart of leaves, ah, by the way, his own good Anda called the life-saving baby of tea. There are also a large number of urgently needed materials for the grassland and the rich results of owing Zhao Xing 10,000 war horses, and Zhao Xing said goodbye to tears, and returned to the north reluctantly.
They meet again in the autumn, hunt in the mountains, and make the slave traders' business bigger and stronger.
Zhao Yong took Zhao Xing's report, drank the drink that Zhao Xing sold to himself called tea, and raised it to the fat Yi beside him: "Master Xingzi is really different from ordinary people, just such a simple move, not only relieved the suffering of 100,000 Zhou people, which can be described as a great merit in his mouth, but also increased the population of Dai County by 100,000, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone." ”
Fei Yi also had to admit that Zhao Xing's methods couldn't even be done by himself: "According to common sense, a thing has both yin and yang, and if there are benefits, there will be disadvantages." For example, if we rescue 100,000 slaves, we will become a burden, but he has not become a burden, just the change of a family to open up the field, so that countless families compete to buy, but he did not come up with a penny, not only that, but also obtained 10 million taxes for Xingjunfu. ”
Zhao Yong laughed: "The most important thing is that my mercenary sister-in-law also gave out a loan of 50 million, and she can collect 25 million interest next year." Help, you say, is this a set made by my brother and sister-in-law? ”
Fei Yi was powerless to refute the monarch's call for Zhao Xing either as a teacher or as an elder brother, so he could only envy it.
"And he also used this method to add one million acres of land to Daijun, which belongs to Xingjun's mansion, which is equal to the country's land, we have used various means, but we have not achieved such an effect, I, I am really not as good as Xingfuzi." This is true words, not polite and modest.
Zhao Yong comforted: "Helping and serving my father and son, the high morality and respect are incomparable to the master, and governing a county cannot be compared with governing a country." Then he looked at the bamboo slips in his hand, "This method is implemented in Daijun, so that all parties are happy, but we have no profit, it is really a pity." ”
There is no brother in front of the interests, Fei Yi smiled and said: "Where is it, although Daijun is the territory of Xingjun, but there are millions of acres of cultivated land and fertile land, so should it be added to the monarch to pay tribute?" ”
Zhao Yong was a little ashamed: "This is not good, I think it will be added to two percent." ”
Hubu Shangshu thought so. immediately take notes, and then immediately inform Zhao Xing that he must act vigorously to do this.
Fei Yi said thoughtfully: "Xingjun's method in Daijun is perfect and comprehensive, it is a good law, all aspects are welcome without resistance, are we also implementing it throughout the country?" For example, Taiyuan County is also fertile and undeveloped. If we promote the method of Xingjun to the big families across the country, it will not only solve the dilemma caused by the growth of their family population due to the small fiefdom, but also bring the problem of taxation to the country without our fiefdom. In this way, the family gets the land and property, we get the tax, the best of both worlds, and the slaves in the family can also be released naturally, for our country to increase the future tax payment, the population base of the levy, isn't it the best? ”
Liao Chong whispered again beside him: "Moreover, we have also weakened the population strength of each family." ”
Fei Yi glanced at Liao Chong, just smiled and said nothing.
The slavery system of the Zhou Dynasty began to be broken since the reform of Li Kui in the Wei State, but it was only broken, but it was not completely complete. Slaves are still not the population resources of the country, but still the power of the slave owners and aristocracy. This not only restricts the development of the country, but also creates a hidden danger of turmoil in the country, and people of insight are worried about it.
However, limited to the situation at that time, these people of insight did not dare to change it, and they did not know how to change it. But this approach has opened up a new idea for everyone.
Zhao Yong eagerly asked Feiyi: "So, let's try?" ”
Fei Yi nodded: "Try it." ”
As a result, a further change from slavery to feudalism was carried out in Zhao State, allowing Zhao to enter a more advanced feudal system a hundred years earlier than Qin State.
Tian family.
"The method implemented by Daijun to return to the family is really good, so that we can solve the contradiction of our overpopulation and insufficient land, so please allow me to take 100 family children and 500 slaves to Daijun to reclaim the wasteland." Tian Chou asked the head of the family of Zhao Guoxiaqing.
The head of the family pondered for a moment: "The Tian clan is separated from the Qi country and the Tian clan is where we are today, and you go to Daijun to do things for the Tian clan, and this matter should be done." ”
"Don't dare to leave the head of the family." Tian Chou sincerely expressed his loyalty.
The head of the family smiled: "Spread the branches and leaves, and set up another branch, this is also the need of the family, and it should be, as long as you come back every year to worship the ancestors." ”
"How dare you forget the ancestral sacrifice?"
"I won't give you the initial investment, the family has a large population, and there is no surplus, but give you a thousand potters, go there and burn the kiln. Although Xingzi was mean and greedy, he did not forgive us in asking our family to owe him gambling debts, and forced me to hide in your aunt's house for three days and did not dare to come out. But this man is very disciplined, he burns bricks, but he doesn't have the pottery of the animals, so after you go, don't break the rules, don't meddle with the bricks. ”
"Yes, yes, yes."
"But you can ask Xia Xingzi's opinion, is it allowed for us to burn bricks and tiles in Handan and other places? I can see that it is something that will make a lot of money in the future. "When people obey the rules, they must also abide by the rules, which is a kind of demeanor, and the most important thing is a kind of reciprocity.
The Tian family is planning, Handan Liao's, Qi's, Fei's, Le's, etc., and even Zongzheng are all planning like this.
For a time, Daijun became a place that everyone flocked to, and the population of Daijun skyrocketed.
But there is only so much land that needs to be reclaimed, and there is no longer much such a population, which is very contradictory, but also very helpless. Unless Zhao Xing uses his own knife now to open up territory for his plow. But now he doesn't have that strength.
So, when Zhao Xing learned that his daughter-in-law was pregnant with a child, he was thinking about whether he had to change the slogan and call: "If you want to be rich, have fewer children and raise more pigs." "That's it.
