It can be said that the appearance of the elders has completely pulled back the fate of these people.

However, they don't know the twists and turns, the whole family fell into a miserable situation, from a free commoner to a slave, in fact, in the dream of the Red Mansion, the scene of the people in the Zhuangzi sending all kinds of New Year's goods to the male protagonist Jia Baoyu's family is almost a vivid description of how the flag slave who was occupied by the enclosure at that time and the original clothed slave had to bear all the materials needed for the life of the flag man.

But since these people don't know, they don't have to appreciate it, not to mention, even if they do, they may not feel anything.

However, the landlords who came to the imperial capital after the villages were grouped together looked at the people who came in and out of the grain and oil store, and they all looked at them with hatred.

At least after the first year of the republic, the entire economic situation of Beizhili was manipulated and became deformed, and a large amount of hot money from the outside originally drove up the local asset prices.

But this kind of life did not last long, first of all, for the first time in this era, the convenience and productivity of life in the city surpassed that of the countryside, and soon the nouveau riche who relied on the elders to make a fortune found that the land bought in various places did not seem to produce much, at least for them, it was a good day without the imperial capital.

Therefore, by the standards of the old era, these landlords did suffer an unjustified disaster, and in an era of relative peace and explosive population growth, they actually suffered a dive in income, no wonder they were dissatisfied.

Income is a matter of several aspects.

On the one hand, it is not surprising that it is not surprising to ensure the necessities of life and ensure basic clothing, food, housing and transportation admixtures to solve personal problems.

On the one hand, it has almost become a tool for some people to measure their social status.

In later generations, those professors who couldn't create anything shouted that they didn't respect knowledge because their income was only three or four times that of ordinary wage earners, and in the era of the country, the income gap between university professors was often dozens of times, but it greatly satisfied their vanity.

Similarly, it is not easy to desperately build a fair income system in the imperial capital, and the feudal rule formed by the Ming Dynasty has its own ability to return blood.

No, these landlords have finally discovered the culprits who are constantly causing harm to themselves, those grain stations that are constantly wholesale grain at cheap prices! There are also these grain households who are constantly selling grain.

It is very difficult to monopolize the business of the imperial capital, and anyone who tries to engage in price alliances or crack down on dissidents has already gone overseas to herd sheep.

At first, they found that there were often people selling grain in the local area, and the price of grain was so cheap, so the first reaction was naturally to gather the people to go and directly expel or grab the grain, but all of them were intercepted by the troops who rushed to protect them.

Again, at the end of the day, the food is so cheap that even locals are willing to buy it.

Since Liaodong has been temporarily positioned as the main grain producing area, chemical fertilizer is promoted to Hebei, tempted to Jiangnan, and fully supplied to Liaodong.

The eight-character constitution of modern agriculture: soil, fertilizer, water, planting, density, protection, management, and work, the biggest advantage of Liaodong may be the support of the imperial capital, as well as the fairness of land ownership, and the efficiency of the use of water resources.

The most difficult thing about agriculture in the Ming Dynasty is not that there is no chemical fertilizer, but that there are no canals, and irrigation can only rely on shoulders, which can be said to be inefficient and too costly.

So in the countryside, it is possible to kill people for the sake of "watering the ground".

The meaning of the elder is very simple, it has been delayed for many years, and now it is the time to increase the productivity of farming, and as a result, you have tied up a large number of people there, and I am very unhappy.

The landlords who gathered to come to the imperial capital could not find a way, even if they had studied, they were only at the level of children, and went to the local county officials, where did the county officials dare to care, anyway, they did not have to pay national taxes now, and even the office expenses of the county government were allocated from above, and it was necessary to maintain good law and order.

Whoever pays the salary is the boss.

If you can't do it, you can petition, but these people are like flies without heads.

If it was in the past, there would have been various "spokespersons" in various places, claiming to be related to a certain Shangshu and could help you mediate, but these people, as the existence of no promotion of social development and hindering the progress of productive forces, have long been swept away.

On Wednesday and Friday, a group of people stood at the door of the grain and oil store for a while, and they didn't come up with a way, but they attracted the attention of several patrols, which is also normal, the imperial capital at this time has reached the level of full employment, different from the past era of all kinds of eunuchs rampant, unemployed people swaying around, who is not desperate to work? Not many people have leisure and leisure, still standing still?

Wednesday and Friday were scared away, but they couldn't, and took the people back to the place where they had gathered.

Of course, Hebei has no so-called hall in the emperor, after all, the place is too close, and under this terrain, the Beizhi Zhizhi Office itself is in Baoding, dozens of miles out of the city, what kind of bicycle do you want.

However, relying on the people who worked in the imperial capital, they still found some restaurants and shops to settle in, in fact, this time when they entered Beijing, if it wasn't for someone in the imperial capital, they wouldn't dare to come in.

"Uncle and grandpa, what can I do about this, seeing that this year's food is still like that, I can't go on."

On Wednesday and Friday, his brain was more flexible, knowing that he was weak and no one cared about him, in fact, if his brain was more flexible, he would have already figured out how to grow vegetables and other by-products.

Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang was not only born as a peasant, but also the leader of the peasant uprising. He knew the land better than almost anyone. He believes that the main culprit of the unpeaceful world is that the peasants do not have their own land. As a result, soon after the founding of the country, he made earth-shaking changes to the form of land distribution. It is stipulated that everyone has his own land, and that the land is forever owned by the peasants and that it is not allowed to be bought or sold.

At the same time, the state also encouraged land reclamation and granted land, so that a considerable number of landless poor people obtained land, bringing a glimmer of life to get rid of poverty, and the society became more and more prosperous after 100 years of rest.

Of course, this is also because of the lack of population at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, so there was not so much pressure.

In this kind of welfare period, each farmer can almost own more than several acres of land, and can also have his own vegetable plot, which can be said to be the best era.

But the good times didn't last long, as the power got out of control, the courage and strength of the Confucian clique grew, after all, just like the matter of power, you can't let the head of a country's cabinet be asked by a policeman: "Boss, I caught a guy who defecates in the open here, should I shoot him or detain him with a fine." ”

Decentralization inevitably leads to rent-seeking.

At the craziest moment, "the people of Wuzhong, the tithes of the landowners, and the tithes of the tenants," under the wave of land annexation, a big bureaucrat often means a big landlord, the first assistant Xu Jie, has 450,000 acres of land, and there are more than 2,000 servants and slaves at home, which is not uncommon at that time, but there was a foolish official Hai Rui at that time, who uncovered all this and also picked out how Xu Jie's land was looted, so that later generations could understand how much land the landlords of this era had.

After all, there was no property notarization system in that era, and you know how much land an official has in his hometown? How many civilians have been assassinated?

For example, Ji Xiaolan himself does not have a high status in history, and after being hyped up, he is regarded as a clean official who confronts the big corrupt official and Shen, but his family is in Cangzhou, and he can be said to be one of the top big landlords, which is not wrong.

The bad thing about Hai Rui is that this smoke screen is open, 450,000 mu of land is not the end, it is estimated that before Xu Jie's layoff, he will make persistent efforts to loot excessively, of course, their land is also not taxable.

At the same time, the inversion of asset prices has reduced the price of people, and the golden bottle Meili, Ximenqing used three and a half to buy a stunning maid to enter the house, even if it is expensive, it only costs sixteen taels, and at the same time, a leather jacket costs 60 taels of silver, and one tael of silver can buy 350 catties of rice, 140 catties of flour, 50 catties of pork, and 16 catties of cotton.

Just refer to the price.

There is a story in "Three Words and Two Beats", there is a poor family who sells his son, and the buyer desperately lowers the price. The child's father and mother said that even a clay doll is more than just a little money. The buyer smiled and said, "The mud doll doesn't need to eat!" ”

Therefore, in the late Ming Dynasty, where ordinary tenant farmers would manage any cash crops, they were all farming enough to eat.

Even now, many sources of vegetables and poultry eggs in the imperial capital rely on the elders to sign the contract, and the homesteaders hired by them, those contracts have a clear division of labor, interests are balanced, and the more you produce, the more you earn, and the enthusiasm will naturally come up.

The big landlords are more concerned about their political security status, and they don't care about making money, and the most small landlords are to eat enough, in fact, even if it is the landlord's family, it is almost impossible to eat white noodles at this time.

Wednesday and Friday were very melancholy, and the reason was naturally that everyone had been looking for a long time, but they couldn't find a way.

The reason is that there are really not many peasants who can be instigated, in fact, if it were not for the use of clan intentions, the rhetoric of the villagers, and the coercion of their parents who are not far away, it is terrible to leave their hometown, and many peasants would prefer to leave here.

In the imperial capital, seeing the prosperity here, and how much money people can make, and even the days when the soldiers who were looked down upon in the past suddenly had meat, they can almost make a docile servant become a ripper Jack by the way, the emperor does not recognize the so-called slavery system, once he runs into their factory, he can be a new person, which also leads to many people not daring to bring more ordinary people to the imperial capital, especially those old Xi'er.

Wednesday and Friday said: "We asked people not to sell grain at such a low price and squeeze our family to death, but people really didn't listen, so we couldn't help it." ”

The old man's eyes widened and he said, "The grain from Liaodong is really cheap, and it's not expensive when you get here, do you buy all the rice and white noodles I asked you to buy." ”

"Don't talk about the grain of rice, just talk about the white flour, which has to be ground with something, and it is not mixed with coarse grains, it is really ...... Well, since you bought it, wait until tomorrow, and you can just do it, and let you invite them here, that's what it is. ”

The Zhou family acted separately, because it was only one day, and there was no need to apply for a temporary residence permit, and there were many landlords from all over the country who came this time, and the next day, those people who bought rice noodles from the imperial capital came out with the dead bodies carried into the city by the shoulders of secret people.

With the gates removed, it was theoretically possible to do this on your feet.

They wept and cried all the way, attracting attention, but they went directly to the door of those grain and oil stores, put the corpses that were already a little wrong, and shouted loudly that they had eaten the grain in this house, and the people died directly, demanding to pay for their lives.

The owners and clerks of those grain and oil stores have never seen this, they are all private small business, and when they opened the store, they also got various measuring tools and utensils presented by the elders, and at this time they saw someone making trouble, and at first they asked how the people were, but then they began to block the door, and they were directly scared away by the people who didn't know what was going on.

The efficiency of the patrol is still very high.

But they seem to be caught in a dilemma.

Dead person.

The dead are the greatest, at least the old landlord has come up with a way.

The experience of the patrol team was not enough to cope with the situation, so they had to ask the men to take the body away first, and then they could go to court if they wanted to file a complaint.

But these people just don't follow.

"Anyway, if someone dies, you have to give an explanation, the food here is so cheap, it must be the wrong way! Everybody is not allowed to buy it. ”

After pestering for a morning, it was only when Wang Jian got up from the pile of fat powder, listened to the news, and became angry with thunder that this farce could be regarded as dismantling.

In fact, there is a reason why China stopped the body for three days, and after three days, it is really impossible to see it.

According to the old man, in order to calm the people, the government must sacrifice the business of those shops and give them some benefits, which is called playing fifty boards each, and the old men like to be quiet and quiet, and it is better not to have anything happening.

However, what happened later was very unexpected.

"These people all died of their own illness, right?"

After entering the detention center, after entering the formal process, the shackles were increased little by little, at least on Wednesday and Friday, and everyone else was crying out for injustice.

"My lord, we haven't violated the government."

"How long have those people been dead, and they are not all sick and dead of old age, but what about you, what is it to carry them here?"

From picking quarrels and provoking troubles, which originally belonged to the public security administration punishment regulations, to the extortion of the civil law, and later, Wang Jian was very skilled in delineating a crime: the crime of disseminating false information to disrupt the market.

It is better to commit the most serious economic crime than to go into a criminal case, let alone such a big crime?

When Zhang Dai first heard about the cause and effect, he was still very optimistic.
