Chapter 692: Expansion

Cabinet Hall.

"Everyone!"

Zhennan Wang Chunfeng said with a full face.

The civil servants who were summoned in front of him looked at him with complicated eyes.

By this time, the battle in the north had ended with the arrival of those widows.

Whether it is the place that has been controlled by the various armies, or the place that is still in the hands of the gentry, under the gaze of the cute panda, all of them have stopped fighting and waited for disposal, including those poor people who fight local tyrants, although some places have not yet completed this task, but they must also stop.

After all, farming is the most important thing.

Once again, the traitor won big.

He used a series of outrageous and despicable means to actually complete the purge of the gentry in the three provinces of Beizhili, Henan, and Shandong, and there is no specific number of how many people died, and there is no number of how many gentry went bankrupt, and no one will count these figures. As the panda's flag flutters in the sky, everything that was before becomes a thing of the past, the dead die in vain, the loss of property in vain, the same killing people are not investigated, and those who rob the property of the gentry are not investigated.

Everything before was revealed in this way, and the blood and tears of countless gentry were covered......

"This tragedy is finally over, this tragedy caused by the rebel party's attempt to kill the monarch and rebel, the rebellion of King Xin, and the rebellion of King Fu has finally been quelled under the wise leadership of His Majesty, under the decision of the nine thousand years old, through the efforts of Yang and you!"

Yang Xin said shamelessly.

The ministers in front of him smiled stiffly, and then looked at him with waiting eyes.

They were all specially summoned, and the military management of the capital before, in fact, is now, including the military management of all places before the completion of the land reform, so they and the courtiers are idle.

But it was as it was.

Yang Xin suddenly summoned them to talk nonsense here, there must be another purpose.

"However, because of the previous turmoil, some distant places do not know the truth of the matter, and there have been some rumors in the south recently, so Your Majesty has decided to send a delegation to the governors to inspect the ministers, and explain to the local officials and the people that you are all the people appointed by Your Majesty. Brother Xuan, you sent the minister to inspect back to Fujian, and conveyed your intentions to the officials and people in all parts of the governor's jurisdiction of Fujian with the holy decree. ”

Yang Xin said to Huang Daozhou.

Lao Huang silently stood up and saluted, symbolically taking over the heavy responsibility.

Then Yang Xin was named one by one, Chen Zizhuang, the minister of inspection of the Qincha of Guangdong, and Jiang Shizhong of Guangxi......

There are very few real top imperial examination families in Guangxi, in fact, it is not easy for them to produce a jinshi, a subject is basically a single digit, or even not at all, for example, in the forty-seventh year of Wanli, the whole Guangxi has a Jinshi. And he also settled in Dongguan after the examination, so he became a Cantonese person, so that the Guangxi Jinshi in the forty-seventh year of Wanli is zero, and the fifth year of the Apocalypse is also one, or a mathematics assessment to be selected, in fact, according to the serious Bagu Wen This subject Guangxi Jinshi is also zero.

But the Jiang family is a rare imperial examination family in Guangxi, and Jiang Shizhong's father was a jinshi in the Longqing period.

His family is said to be the descendants of Jiang Wan during the Three Kingdoms, and they are the first literati in Guangxi, but in fact, in the Qing Dynasty, their family was also a family of imperial examinations.

Jiangxi is Song Yingxing, Nanjiang is Li Banghua, Huguang is He Fengsheng, Biyuan is naturally Yang He, Yunnan is Fu Zonglong, but there is also a peer Liu Kongzhao, after all, Yunnan is a special situation, not only the gentry, but also the Duke of Qianguo and those hereditary generals, Guizhou is Ma Shiying, Ma Yaocao was previously in the household department, and Sichuan is Wang Yingxiong.

It's all in this province.

This arrangement made the gang vigilant.

"In addition, His Majesty has decided to follow the story of the former Song Dynasty and implement the public land law in the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty and the Thirteen Political Envoys in the two capitals of the Ming Dynasty, and abolish the Tianxia Guards and change them to the militia reserve system in the face, that is, those that have been implemented in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. These also need to be explained to the officials and people in various places, but they can rest assured that for those loyal subjects, they will be redeemed in the same way as in the former Song Dynasty, and will not be like Zhaoyi City in the past, and His Majesty does not approve of this method.

Yang disagreed.

For loyal and righteous people, there should be a way of loyal and righteous people.

In the north, these are their own destruction, this is not His Majesty's land to take their land, but they have committed a crime and deserve to lose their land, but those in the south who are not rebellious are not the same. ”

Yang Xin said.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Wang Yingxiong couldn't wait to say.

The others also showed a hint of surprise that was hard to hide.

They had prepared for the worst, but they didn't expect Yang Xin to actually change their means.

"Listen to me first."

Yang Xin said.

The guys' faces tensed again.

"The redemption will be redeemed according to the official price, and as for the price, it will not be disadvantaged to you, so it will be redeemed according to the land price in various places in June last year, but the imperial court must not have so much silver, so it will not use silver to buy, but issue special land vouchers.

That is, bonds issued by the imperial court guaranteed by His Majesty.

This kind of bond has always been equivalent to one dollar of new currency, and then His Majesty authorized the People's Bank of China to act as an agent for the minting and issuance of notes in the Ming Dynasty, and the face was changed to new currency, one yuan is one or two silver, but the land voucher must not be used as money, can be traded but cannot be used for market circulation. And the time to cash is longer, according to the time when the ticket is printed to cash in batches, after all, the court must also have silver, and the court will definitely not be able to cash without silver. ”

He said.

"How long is that?"

Jiang Shizhong asked.

"A hundred years from now!"

Yang Xin said very easily.

Jiang Shizhong almost couldn't hold back a mouthful of spit in his face.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I know this is a bit long, the earliest batch will be cashed out in a hundred years, and the latest batch will be cashed in about two hundred years, heirloom!"

Yang Xin said exaggeratedly.

I believe you're a ghost, who knows what will happen in a hundred years? A hundred years later, who knows if the Ming Dynasty will still be there?

A bunch of chasers looked at the shameless fellow with disdain.

"In addition, these land coupons have a purpose, those who don't want to wait for the exchange, can use the usual price of ten acres, from the imperial court to buy wasteland, but not within the scope of the two capitals and thirteen political envoys, can only buy outside this range, such as the wasteland in the jurisdiction of the Liaoning political envoys, Shaanxi Xingdu Division, Shanxi Xingdu Division. In addition, His Majesty will also set up a command of the Taiwan Metropolitan Mission, and set up a Luzon Command Envoy in the northern part of Luzon that has just been subjugated.

These can also be bought.

Consistently ten acres.

You can go and open up the wasteland.

The reclaimed wasteland is given a land certificate by His Majesty, which will be inherited by future generations and will always belong to you.

And if you want to go, the sailors will send warships to escort you, and garrisons will protect you. ”

Yang Xin said.

Japan's land reform under the auspices of the Emperor Taishang was to collect the landlord's land by way of redemption, and it was also a non-negotiable bond, and the maximum reserved limit was established, and the rest had to be sold to the state, and then the state sold it to tenants. However, at the beginning of the sale, the Japanese government controlled by the Emperor Taishang depreciated the currency in a frenzied manner, and the price of land was fixed whether it was taken from the landlord or sold to tenants, and when the yen depreciated to the point where the price of rice rose nearly fourfold, the price of land acquisition and sale remained unchanged.

At its most exaggerated, it was said that a farmer could buy an acre of land with a pack of cigarettes.

The price of cabbage is purchased and sold at the price of cabbage.

In this way, the purge of the Japanese landlord class was accomplished.

Of course, the premise is that the emperor presides over it, and the emperor of the rice country points a gun at the Japanese landlords to accept.

Yang Xin, on the other hand, was purchased with printed land vouchers and then depreciated in a hundred to two hundred years......

This is exchanged for new currency, and now the new currency is indeed a silver dollar, a tael of silver, and I am afraid that it will have been changed to the gold standard in a hundred years, and it is estimated that it will be paper money in two hundred years, in fact, it can be paper money in a hundred years, and this land coupon is a fart at that time!

Of course, this is not the most important thing.

The most important thing is to use this to attract them to open up wasteland.

Yang Xin did plan to go to the colony to open up the wasteland and obtain land ownership, but in fact, it was impossible for anyone to run out after the land was divided, so it was better to change the plan and let these people use the land vouchers that they also knew would be difficult to say in one or two hundred years, and go to the colony to obtain land ownership. The wasteland of the three political envoys in the two capitals was used for the militia in the country, and their newly increased population was cleared in these places, and these landlords who sold their land went to the colonies to work as pioneers.

After all, they can obtain a land certificate issued by the emperor and have the permanent property rights to the wasteland.

Land vouchers are waste paper.

They know very well the value of this thing, no matter what Yang Xin promises now, one or two hundred years is enough time to erase it, he is dead, who can find him?

In this case, it is more cost-effective to exchange land vouchers for wasteland.

After all, the land is really in hand, and after overseas trade over the years, these gentry already know the richness of Nanyang, not to mention that even if they take the land voucher and exchange it for a few hundred acres of spice gardens, they can quickly recover the lost land cost.

It's much better than waiting for two hundred years.

Two hundred years.

What a cheeky way to say such a number.

"What if there's not enough land outside?"

Huang Daozhou said.

Yang Xin simply slapped the world map behind him......

"Keep grabbing!"

He said.

This kind of policy can also make the officials and gentry, who were originally not enthusiastic about foreign expansion, immediately full of enthusiasm for expanding their territory.

After all, what is robbed will become theirs.

After all, it was their fiefdom that they grabbed their fiefs, and the civil officials and gentry also liked to expand their territory, after all, the land vouchers in their hands needed more fertile land outside to be realized, and the wealth and elite of the entire Ming Dynasty turned their attention to external expansion.

Internally, the Junda and militia systems are maintained to ensure that everyone is fed as much as possible.

But it's definitely not enough to eat enough, after all, you have to consume silver, or invest in industry, but the size of the Ming Dynasty is too large, and the industrialization of the Ministry lacks sufficient market support, and the world can't feed the industrialized Ming, and eventually it will gradually expand, so the wealth and elite will have enough soldiers.

This is the future of Daming.

"If the king of Zhennan had made this policy clear, why would there be such a mess now!"

Zodiac Zhou sighed.

"Ha, if it weren't for those gentry who were exterminated, even if I came up with this set of public land laws, would you honestly accept it? Don't be kidding, Brother Young Xuan, everyone, you are now accepting my public land method, not because it is right, but because you already know that you can't resist, and you accept it because it is stained with the blood of countless gentry. ”

Yang Xin said very directly.

A group of ministers laughed awkwardly.

"King, what should the clan do?"

Fu Zonglong asked.

"Move the domain, move the real land, the court will not give them another silver or two in the future, the clan's land and property will also be recovered, and each domain will give the real land, but not within the two capitals and thirteen political envoys, but outside this range, I will send them out within ten years, the nine kings of Taizu were very good, and the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty must all go to the side."

Yang Xin said.

The vassal king had better deal with it.

Restore the Taizu system, a vassal king gives a guard, and then goes out to plug the border.

A vassal king gave them 2,000 square kilometers of reclaimed wasteland, and their own clan plus guards, it was easy for a vassal king to move out 10,000 households.

For example, you can throw the batch of Fu Wang out next.

But it's not to the South Seas, these are all northerners, and sending them directly to the South Seas is almost the same as giving them a white silk.

But you can send them to the northwest, for example, Hetao, Zhang Xianzhong has already begun to act, where the next need is to fill in the immigrants, like the three kings of Shandong can be thrown over, they belong to criminals, it is impossible to give them 2,000 square kilometers, there are 500 can be, it is still very suitable for agriculture, all that is needed is the construction of some infrastructure. It just so happened that there would be a lot of women left, and then a bunch of singles would be moved from the interior, so that there would be guards for the three kings, and as for the rest, they would continue to push these northern vassal kings to the northwest, and then go west out of Jiayuguan to destroy the Yarkand Khanate in the name of this.

After this war is over, these hundreds of thousands of elite cavalry cannot be idle.

In the future, there will be no war in the north, just have 20,000 or 30,000 cavalry garrison, and the rest of the troops will rush to sweep the Yarkand Khanate in the Western Regions, and then place the land they have laid down to the northern vassal king, or in the name of resettling the vassal king, to immigrate to Shibian.

Along the southern frontier, lay a piece of ground and threw it over a vassal king.

As for those in the south, they had to be thrown to the South Seas, and after the war, those infantry who had begun to evolve to the point of being shot in line could not be idle, but still had to conquer the south. From Yunnan to Guangxi, the border line began to push forward, and the conquest of those monarchs forced them to pay tribute, forced their families to hand over a piece of rich land about the same size, and then threw the southern vassal kings over, and so on.

Throw it away until it lasts.

With the vassal king as the center, coupled with the real land knighthood, plus the gentry plantation, the expansion method of the Ming Dynasty is this template.

Then they were forbidden to engage in industry.
