"There is another thing, our people caught a few spies, and after the interrogation, they confessed that they came from Luoyang, how do you think this is handled?" After Zeng Yu finished explaining the matter, Xie Jing reported.

When Zeng Yu heard this, his expression changed, and he asked, "Have they explained who sent it?" ”

"They said they were the servants of Dong Cheng, the general of the chariot cavalry." Xie Jing replied.

Zeng Yu thought about it for a while, he knew about Dong Cheng, so he was not particularly worried, but he was afraid that the other party would make his situation public in Luoyang, and then those wealthy families in Luoyang would definitely be like cats smelling fishy.

"Did these people find anything?" Zeng Yu asked.

"There shouldn't be, according to our people's investigation, they have only been in Anping for three days, so they shouldn't be able to find too many things." Xie Jing was also troubled, the other party relied on the support of Dong Cheng behind him, the oil and salt did not enter, there was no Zeng Yu's instructions, and he could not torture them, so now he did not pry anything meaningful out of their mouths.

"Did you alarm the others when you arrested them?"

"No, the brothers were arrested in secret at night, and no one else was alarmed, and it was confirmed that there should be only a few of them here." Xie Jing was worried about startling the snakes, so after arresting these people, he deliberately observed them in the place where they lived for a few days, and did not see anyone else coming to the joint.

"Then let them disappear, and arrange it to be done by bandits, and don't get it to Anping County." After listening to Xie Jing's answer, Zeng Yu decisively ordered that he didn't want to make extraneous branches.

And he didn't know why Dong Cheng sent someone over, whether it was his own idea, or whether the Queen Mother or He Jin asked him to come over to explore the way. But since he only sent these few people over, it means that he didn't take it to heart, but only tentatively inquired, if these people were killed by the bandits, even if they sent people over next time, the time would not be so fast, at least it could be delayed for a while.

Xie Jing didn't think about it so much, after he heard Zeng Yu's order, he took the order and went down, leaving Zeng Yu there alone.

However, this incident gave Zeng Yu a reminder that with the development of Anping and the rise of its reputation, more and more forces will definitely send spies over in the future. Therefore, for the management of the people and information under the rule, a more detailed system is needed. Originally, the original household registration system of the Han Dynasty was very perfect, and all people's household registration labels were in triplicate, registered with names, hometowns, knowledge, experience and even appearances, family history, etc., and at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, these systems gradually became useless, and the household registration of Anping County was still done after Zeng Yu took office, but it was not as strict as the early Han Dynasty, just a rough record of the name, family and some fields under the name.

"It seems that I should try to improve the household registration system, thinking that this will completely solve a series of problems such as spies in the territory, dark lines, forced labor, and population." Zeng Yu said to himself, after speaking, he asked his own soldiers to go to the side to call Liu Neng over, and this matter needs to be discussed with him.

After the soldiers were ordered to go out, they quickly led Liu Neng over. Zeng Yu didn't say anything, and after Liu Neng came in, he told Liu Neng that he planned to implement a new household registration system in Anping County, and then introduced this household registration system to Liu Neng in detail.

Liu Neng doesn't know what else to say except for admiring Zeng Yu's household registration system, at least with his years of knowledge and the experience of governing in the past six months, he didn't hear the loopholes, and he admired his own father-in-law, believing that he really had many years of experience in later generations. While listening carefully, he memorized what he didn't understand, and asked Zeng Yu later if he didn't understand.

Zeng Yu was also looking at Liu Neng's reaction when he explained, and saw that he was very much in favor of what he said, Zeng Yu felt that it was a matter of course, after all, what he said could be the household registration system of the Ming Dynasty in normal history, and the things that the world's virtuous people could study with all their might in the past two thousand years, how could they not throw it off several streets now.

Zeng Yu has not thought about other household registration systems, but the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, if you look at the rigor of the management of the people, think about it, and finally look at the household registration system of the Ming Dynasty, after all, this system can be regarded as the most perfect system since ancient times, although there are many discordant places, but it is undeniable that the household registration system of the Ming Dynasty has great benefits for taxation, population management, and forced labor!

Whether it is the household registration equivalent to the 21st century, or the way of household registration division and management, it is too advanced. First of all, this household post not only indicates the name of the family, the place of origin, but also indicates the property, the property written on the household post is recognized by the society, protected by law, and it is not written, then it is not good, and there is no way to prove it if it is stolen, so this thing is still very useful.

Another division of household registration, mainly is divided into civil registration, military registration, artisan registration, respectively by the household department, the military department, the Ministry of industry management, these origins do not affect the official, as long as you have the ability to be an official, this household registration is mainly used to distinguish, plus in ancient times it was generally the son inherited the father's business.

However, Zeng Yu also knows the disadvantages of this division, that is, the fixed social division of labor, his parents are in the army, then his children and grandchildren can only be soldiers from generation to generation, even if they are weak and sick, they don't understand anything, they can only go to the army. Or a person who doesn't know medical skills at all can only take his father's class as a doctor, and he can change it, but it's too difficult. In the Han Dynasty, if according to the system of the Ming Dynasty, it could not even be changed at all, because the easiest way to change was to be an official, and the Ming Dynasty was a dynasty that had developed the imperial examination, and all classes of officials could pass the imperial examination, which was far from comparable to the current inspection.

So he also made some changes to this, allowing the people to have the opportunity to change their household registration, every citizen is a citizen at the beginning, and if you want to become a military member, you need to pass the assessment of enlistment, and the craftsman registration must pass the corresponding assessment of the government to obtain. However, although it is difficult to obtain these two places of origin, they also have greater benefits, and the families of military families can receive preferential treatment from the government, whether it is farm tools or seeds or others, they can be obtained from the government first. The craftsman status can receive a certain amount of subsidies from the government.

The reason why he deliberately retains this craftsman is also a plan of Zeng Yu, for science and technology is the primary productive force, he remembers very clearly, and he is convinced of this fact, he attaches great importance to technology at will, and this will also be the direction of his future vigorous development.

In addition to the division of household registration, the next step is the Lijia system that comes with the civil registration, which divides one hundred and ten households into one li, and the ten households that are best at farming are the lichang, and then the remaining 100 households are averaged into ten jia. In this way, when it is necessary to go out of the conscription every year, one Li is taking a person who wants to go out and the ten households of the first to bear the conscription.

Each A is responsible for a year, and everyone is in shifts. It's called "Ranking Year". In this way, ninety percent of the people no longer need to be disturbed every year, and the agricultural production and normal order of life in the countryside are protected.

Of course, more importantly, because conscription is discharged by year. Therefore, the common people will stare at themselves whether there is anyone in them who wants to slip away, because the one who has served in the conscription is equivalent to serving the conscription to all the people in that year, and then if you want to escape the conscription if you have not served the conscription, then you must first ask those people before if they are willing.

As for the end of the first year, it can be recompiled, and by the way, the census will be carried out, and the population structure will be calculated if you are in the mood. When necessary, the ratio of men and women in various places can be adjusted, and in short, except for tying all the people of civilian nationality to their places of residence, everything else is not bad.

As for what to do when this household registration system prospers in the future. Chen Xi can only say cold salad, and then talk about it when the time comes, God knows what household registration system should be used when moving everywhere, or if you really achieve no tax. It doesn't matter, relying on this bound household registration to collect and pay agricultural taxes.

"That's basically it, you go down and discuss it to see if there are any loopholes, if not, I'll leave it to you, if there is, bring it up and we'll discuss it together." Zeng Yu said that his mouth was dry, and he finally finished speaking.

"Lord, how to implement the assessment of this craftsman's certificate. Because at present, we do not have a craftsman at the level of a master craftsman, and if we let a layman preside over the assessment, I am afraid that it will not be enough to convince the public. Liu Neng asked a question that came to mind.

"I know this, and I plan to be more detailed about craftsman's registration, such as doctors, infrastructure, carpenters, etc. At present, there are several doctors from the Taiyi Order here, and I will let them preside over the assessment, I believe that for the current Anping, their level is enough. As for the other assessments, let go for the time being, and there will be enough masters to preside over the assessment in the future. Zeng Yu was not surprised by Liu Neng's question, and he also had plans to answer Liu Neng.

"There is no problem with the other subordinates for the time being, I will go down and discuss with the others. The system proposed by the lord is almost complete, which really makes his subordinates admire. Liu Neng said excitedly, and it could be seen from his tone and expression that he sincerely admired his lord.

"Haha, then I'll leave it to you. There are many things to follow, whether it is the expansion of the county seat, or this household registration reform, you must fully participate, especially this household registration reform, you will be personally responsible, you must arrange it well, do not make any mess. Zeng Yu explained.

"No!".

"I'm going to hold a dinner party at the county government in the evening, and you can inform the other people and let everyone come together. It can be regarded as a pick-up for Yuan Hao and Zilong. After the matter was discussed, Zeng Yu said to Liu Neng.

"Yes!" Hearing Zeng Yu's order, Liu Neng responded happily.
