"Recruiting? What are you hiring? Qin Yiming asked incomprehensibly.

"Build a women's army!" Ma Fengyi said proudly, "Cousin, those female red handicrafts are indeed not suitable for me, so I am going to build a women's army and become a female general!" ”

"Build a women's army? It takes money to raise people, but what about your money? ”

Ma Fengyi looked at Xu Zhen'er with ill intentions and pity, Xu Zhen'er understood, and said: "Okay, raise one or two hundred people, I can still afford to raise them, you can make trouble, I will pay the money, but I can't provide firearms or anything." ”

"That's okay, this Lord Yang has already promised me, but he said that as long as I can recruit someone, he will give me a musket. However, it is indeed not an easy task to recruit women to practice the musket team, and I don't know why, those women are too timid. Ma Fengyi said with emotion.

"Zhen'er, I have something serious to tell you."

"Xianggong, what's the matter?"

"I'm going to set up a military academy and a specialized military research institute, similar to the Shenji Battalion." Qin Yiming explained.

"Military Academy? What do I need to do? ”

"Money! Guards have all the food, but no money! Also, use the channels of your businessmen to inform the world and let those enthusiastic young people join in. Qin Yiming once wanted to publish a newspaper so as to grasp the power of public opinion in the world, but now the conditions are obviously not available, not to mention the problem of illiteracy, the most important thing is that paper is still a luxury now, so books are so expensive, Qin Yiming can foresee, if the newspaper really comes out, it will definitely be in the toilet.

"Xianggong, if there is anything that needs my cooperation, I will fully cooperate, now De'an Qianzhuang has limited financial resources, but how much silver can be required to build a school, it is nothing more than to invite a teaching gentleman!" Xu Zhen'er said lightly, she couldn't understand what the military academy in Qin Yiming's mouth looked like.

Qin Yiming is only a preliminary idea now, it is definitely impossible to expect the imperial court to pay money, he can only find a way by himself, the military academy can train the backbone of the army, and these backbones can be cultivated and enriched by the army, and the army in the future will be more loyal to Qin Yiming, which is very important, the military research institute is even more important, the current firearms of Daming are not very mature, Qin Yiming is ready to use the technicians of Tang Ruowang and the Fort Peacely Military Factory as the backbone to specialize in improving firearms, and he only needs to provide ideas in the future, Let them study slowly, as long as they invest, sooner or later they can be improved, in short, they will be built first, and the later ones will be slowly improved.

After Sun Shirui learned that Qin Yiming returned to De'an Mansion, he came to De'an Mansion to congratulate Qin Yiming.

After the wine and dinner, Sun Shirui and Qin Yiming came to the study, Qin Yiming told about this trip to Beijing, and Sun Shirui listened to it with relish. Speaking of which, Qin Yiming began to elaborate on his reform plan through alcohol.

"The Ding silver was spread into the field and collected, and the previous poll tax was abolished; After the social stability of the society, the government should relax the control of household registration, the people in many places in the Ming Dynasty, they do not need a surname at all, and they live in that village all their lives, so what is called the old one, the second, and the third can be distinguished, after the control is relaxed, farmers and handicraftsmen can move freely and sell their labor, which can vigorously promote the development of commerce; All state capitals should find out how much land is per mu, share taxes per mu, and enrich finances! In this way, as long as the number of acres decreased, the finances of the imperial court would not deteriorate. Qin Yiming roughly explained what he meant.

Sun Shirui was very surprised, if taxes are levied according to the acres of land, wouldn't those scholars with exemptions also have to pay taxes? This is a great condemnation of the world! For a long time, scholars and the Son of Heaven have ruled the world together, and now Qin Yiming wants to attack the scholars of the world.

"Brother Qin, do you know the consequences of your actions? will inevitably lead to verbal criticism and scolding from the world's corporal doctors! Sun Shirui's face was pale and nervous.

"If the country lives and dies for profit, will it not be avoided because of misfortune and fortune! I was originally a martial artist, what is there to be afraid of, as long as the people get benefits, as long as the Ming Dynasty can prosper again, everything is worth it! If they want to scold, let them scold! Qin Yiming's spirit of risking the world's disapproval for the sake of the Ming Dynasty moved Sun Shirui.

"If a profitable country lives and dies, will it not be avoided because of misfortune and fortune! But at present, we can't do this, we can't implement it, and there are so many princes in Huguang, so let them pay taxes too? Isn't that a joke? ”

Even Sun Shirui objected, and Qin Yiming was also helpless, so he could only retreat.

"Of course, this is a later story, I give priority to the implementation of the policy of clearing the tun, and let the tuntian, which originally belonged to the guard, let those giant landlords spit it out to me! The reason why Ling Zun's Qin army is so strong is also because this policy of clearing the tun is well implemented, and the soldiers are willing to fight only when they are full! Qin Yiming said seriously.

Sun Shirui nodded, of course he knew a thing or two about what his old son Sun Chuanting did in Shaanxi, but there were too many people offended in this way, but there was no way to do it for the sake of strengthening the army.

"It's a good idea to give this a try, after all, it's not that big! However, these tuntians have been encroached upon, and it is not so easy to clear them back, so this matter still has to be done slowly! ”

Qin Yiming shook his head and said with a smile: "Hehe, big brother, take your time?" I can't wait, the emperor gave me the sword of Shangfang, I can't waste it, I am going to try it in Qingtun in Sanfu first, and by the way, I will give a wake-up call to those who occupy Tuntian in other places in Huguang. ”

"You can't mess around, it's complicated? Don't underestimate those businessmen, they are all colluded with the big members of the court, this is not that you lead the troops to fight, you lead the troops to fight, the enemy is on the surface, in this court, who is a friend and who is the enemy, this is hard to say, after all, you are far away from the court, when the time comes, the court will give you a crime, everything will be over! Sun Shirui was very worried, and reminded Qin Yiming bitterly.

Sun Shirui saw that Qin Yiming had made up his mind, and said: "In fact, there are three kinds of land deeds in the Ming Dynasty, one is a white deed, one is a red deed, and one is the right to the field. It was originally built on wasteland. ”

"What is a white deed, what is a red deed, and what is a field right?" Qin Yiming didn't understand it very much, he really hadn't heard of this thing, he only knew that there should be a contract for land sales.

Sun Shirui took a sip of tea and continued: "At the beginning of the founding of Taizu, the Ming Dynasty had few people and more land, and at that time, the imperial court gave many policies in order to encourage the people to farm, among which the land was to encourage the people to open up wasteland and reclaim it. White deed, that is, the land without a lord opened up by the common people, and whoever clears up these lands belongs to whom, but there is no title deed from beginning to end, and the imperial court also recognizes the sale and purchase of land except for the guard, and this kind of transaction without a land deed is a white deed. And the white deeds of the guard are all reclaimed by the guard. The red deed is the land distributed by the imperial court to the people to cultivate, and it is the land with the red seal of the government, so this kind of sale is called the red deed, and the field right refers to the wasteland under the name of the government. ”

Qin Yiming understood, this is the same as the small property rights of later generations.

"Big brother is saying that the right to the field is from the imperial court, and there is no problem for me to recover it?"

"The land of the field right was originally owned by the imperial court, and there is naturally no problem with taking it back, this white deed, the problem is not big, the Ming Dynasty has been established for more than 200 years, and those who reclaim wasteland are long gone, and the imperial court stipulates that the purchase and sale of the white deed of the guard is not recognized. There are very few transactions of the red deed of the guard, and those big landlords and big businessmen have a bad means of embezzling the guard, and secondly, it was originally established by Taizu on the wasteland back then, and there is no red deed at all. Sun Shirui reminded.

Qin Yiming completely understood now, if it weren't for Sun Shirui telling him, how would he know it for a future generation, fortunately, there are still similarities between the current land and the land of later generations, it is easy to understand, legally speaking, everyone does not recognize the sale of land without a land certificate, so it is indeed theoretically feasible for the imperial court to reclaim it. All in all, as long as the landlords can't get the red deed, he can take back the land of the guard.

"Although the land purchase and sale of the guard, there are few red deeds, and they are all white deeds and field rights, but I am afraid it is not easy, and it will inevitably offend many people at that time!" Sun Shirui is still very worried.

"The implementation of this Qingtun will inevitably have strong resistance, so I will first implement it in the three places of De'an Mansion, Hanyang Mansion, and Chengtian Mansion, all of which are the boundaries of the Hindu Guard, and it should be easy to implement." Qin Yiming said.

Sun Shirui nodded, Qin Yiming wanted to clear the tun, it was simply to offend all the landlords and rich gentry in the three places, the resistance must be very strong, and he was also very worried, but since Qin Yiming must do it, he must support it unconditionally.

"The Qingtun of the three places must be completed within half a year, and the spring planting must be caught up next year, this matter cannot be delayed, I will never allow anyone to interrupt my Qingtun strategy, the emperor can give me the sword of Shang Fang, that is, I know that I will encounter a lot of resistance, which is used to deter Xiaoxiao." Qin Yiming said with a cold face, and at this time, the terrifying murderous aura burst out of his eyes, and even Sun Shirui felt scared.

"In you, I seem to see the shadow of my father!" Sun Shirui suddenly sighed.

Soon, Qin Yiming issued an order to Chen Daquan, the left-behind division of the Hindu, ordering the local health centers to check the tuntian and population of their own guards, and report the truth that those lost tuntian fields must be recovered before spring planting, otherwise the commander of the guard station or Zhengqian households will be dealt with by military law. In order to cooperate with Qin Yiming, Sun Shirui also turned over the old land deeds of the government, and at the same time sent officials to the three mansions to measure the land and clean up the acres.

This small order immediately stirred up a thousand waves, and it made a lot of noise in De'an Mansion, Hanyang Mansion, Chengtian Mansion and other places.
