Chapter 12 Luoyang buys officials
Zhang Jie said again, tell the brothers that it was the Yang family who resisted first, do we understand self-defense? Tell the brothers again, this time, everyone has a share of the money, food, at least five stone of grain per person, the money, it hasn't been counted yet, at least three years of military sound. Only more, no less, and then no land, ten acres per person.
Liu Biao is happy, ten acres of land!
Dian Wei accompanied Zhang Jie and returned to the county office, Zhang Jie asked Dian Wei: Brother, are we too ruthless?
Dian Weidao: Anyway, the Yang family is not a good person, hey, Jie knows that his brother is also a little unbearable, but this world is the way of cannibalism, our brothers have to be ruthless if they want to get ahead, and the benevolence of women cannot become a big thing. A few days later, my brother accompanied me to Luoyang and bought this Taishou position first. I have to go to the Assassin's Mansion tomorrow, and we are also walking on the tip of the knife now, and if we are not careful, we will be doomed.
Dian Wei nodded. In the trial, Gao Shun took a few people to pull two carriages and entered the trial's house, and the judge knew that he would send money, so he immediately asked the house slave to carry the box to the basement, and then sealed the door to enter the house. Gao Shun returned to Yang's house to help Liu Biao bury people, clean the battlefield, and work in the backyard stable. The Yang family still has more than 20 horses, all of which are to be taken away, the food will not move first, there is too much and there is no place to put it, Gao Shun is very disappointed in his heart, and he always feels unbearable. But things still have to be done. In the evening, nearly 500 county soldiers gathered in the backyard of the county office, no one spoke, it was very quiet, and a few people outside were guarding.
Zhang Jie said: The evidence that Yang Ming and his son assassinated Zhang Yuan Taishou is conclusive. Yang Ming also explained very clearly, the period of human and physical evidence is complete. But we were indeed a little anxious when we arrested Yang Ling, but this can't be fast, who told them to resist? So when someone asked in the future, everyone had to say that it was the Yang family who resisted and killed our brothers first, intending to rebel, so we killed people.
Then, today all the brothers, 100,000 yuan each, 200,000 dead brothers, 150,000 wounded, five stone of grain per person, and ten acres of land. The dead brother was given to his home. The money will be divided later, and the grain will go to Yang's house tomorrow morning to get it, the land! We'll divide it in a few days. Everyone is happy, money is a small thing, the main thing is land, there are few soldiers who have land, and now divide the land, can you not be happy? Zhang Jie said again: Some brothers may feel that they are too little, but we know what we are doing, and the official wants to take some to deal with it, and I hope the brothers understand. The copper coins were piled up in a room, and then it was the pennies.
The next day, Zhang Jie took Dian Wei to the Assassin's Mansion, Huangfu Song had long known that Zhang Yuan had been killed, but he heard Zhang Jie say that Yang Ming confessed in person, and there were human witnesses and physical evidence. Although there are some doubts, there is no way. There is no proof that he is dead. I heard that Yang Ling's private soldiers rebelled against the officers and soldiers, and then the reinforcements arrived to destroy the private soldiers, and the officers and soldiers saw that their brothers were killed, and they lost control before destroying the Yang family, although they were very suspicious, but they were too lazy to ask. These families are not good things anyway. Huangfu Song is not a good person, killing Yellow Turban captives and cutting down tens of thousands at a time. Don't blink an eye. Zhang Jie also said that he copied 20,000 stone of grain and sent it to the Thorn Shifu to make military rations, and pulled a cart of copper coins for him to make a military sound, although he knew that Zhang Jie took the big head. But I also think Zhang Jie is sensible.
Huangfu Song said again: What about the Yang family's land? Zhang Jiedao: Give a part to the tenants. Let them become yeoman farmers, and share a part of it to the families of the dead and wounded officers and soldiers. The second part was left to the imperial court. Well, yes, the people of the world can think about the court and make the officials happy, so let's do it, you can send the grain to the official warehouse in the city.
In this way, everyone finished sharing the spoils. Politics is so disgusting. In fact, everyone knows that there is something wrong with this. The county government, Li Xing, Li Qing, and the review are all here, and now they admire Zhang Jie's broken hand and ruthlessness.
Zhang Jie said: You will start to divide the land tomorrow, the Yang family has nearly 2,000 tenants, more than 10,000 people, each person is divided into five acres of land, remember, it is per person, according to the head, regardless of men, women and children, each person can not divide more than five acres, can not be less, each household must be registered, issued the title deed, to try to be fair and just, so that more than half of the Yang family's land can be divided. The rest of the land will not be divided for the time being, and the three of you will each have a hundred acres.
The three of them looked at each other and said, "No! , when the land is divided, take the officers and soldiers there, and make it clear that it is me Zhang Jie, Zhang Shimin who divides the land to them, isn't it the Yang family who understands? There may still be some remnants of the Yang family, and the land will be given to them, but the world must prevent them from jumping off the wall in a hurry. Again, the land that is divided is not to be bought or sold. If anyone dares to sell by force, arrest him. Chop off the head. And you, I said ugly things in the front, and you are not allowed to take favors or bribes in the division of land. If I find out that I take a copper coin, I will ask for someone's head. The autumn harvest is about to begin, and whoever gets the land will belong to whoever has it, except for the taxes paid to the government. No more land rent is allowed. Do you understand? In a word, the tiller has his land. Remember one word in your hearts, serve the people. The three of them were shocked, especially the deliberations, and felt that the elder brother recognized the right person. Okay, let's go down and do things.
Oh! Li Xing stayed. Zipeng, I went to Luoyang, and the affairs of the county government will all depend on you, and you must pay close attention to the division of land, and you must be bold to enlarge it, and I will bear it when the sky falls. After I come back from Luoyang, I may be appointed as the Taishou of Wei County, and you will be the Yecheng Order. Work hard, do more things for the people, and it is not impossible to be honored in the future.
The 20,000 stone of grain given to Huangfu Song should also be grasped. lest he regret it.
After explaining these things, in the evening, Zhang Jie's room, Gao Shun, Dian Wei, Zhang Jie, and the three of them. Zhang Jie knew that Gao Shun had some thorns in his heart, and if he didn't pull it out, it would seriously affect Gao Shun. Two brothers, I know that this incident made the two brothers feel that the people of the world are also corrupt officials and corrupt officials, seeking money and killing people. But the people of the world still have to say that the people of the world have a clear conscience, and you know who the Yang family is. Where did their family get so much land?
100,000 acres, how much blood and tears are there here, brother? Aren't they all extortion and coercion to buy those ordinary people? Let's kill the Yang family and divide the land equally among the tenants, this is to eliminate harm for the people. Brother, if all the people in the world each have five acres of land, even if the people of the world die now, the people of the world will not hesitate at all. The two elder brothers are also from poor backgrounds, so they should know this truth. So if we want to move forward and do things for the people, we have to be more ruthless than those families. Big things don't matter.
Gao Shun thought for a while, yes, if he had ten acres of land, how could he still be a soldier? Dao: Shun knows, Shun will not doubt. Well! Jie is going to Luoyang in a few days, Brother Dian will accompany me, Brother Gao wants to let the 1,500 people of the trial family continue to train, but you don't want to go, just let the instructor practice, you take the county soldiers to accompany Li County to divide the land, and you must be prepared. There can't be a mess. Whoever dares to stand in the way will be arrested. Those who dare to resist, kill!
Brother Dian, I will tell the review later, and let him do Yang Ming who is in prison. Be clean, and commit suicide in fear of sin.
In the evening, Zhang Jie came to the judge's house and discussed for a while. slept in the judge's house, the two concubines were the virgins selected by the judge's family, and last time Zhang Jie found red flowers on the sheets afterwards, so he let the judge's family take care of them. Tonight is a double flight again, and Zhang Jie has been too depressed recently, so he has to vent well.
Outside the south of Yecheng. Xiaopingzhuang is boiling, dividing the fields, I haven't heard of such a good thing for thousands of years. Moreover, the grain in the field is divided, and the autumn harvest is about to begin, and the division of the land is equal to the distribution of grain and land. Eighty percent of the land in the entire Xiaopingzhuang belongs to the Yang family. After dividing Xiaopingzhuang, it is Zhouzhuang. There are 500 county soldiers, and there are county soldiers, lords, village elders, etc., so no one dares to make trouble. Besides, what if a fool doesn't want it? After several lifetimes of tenants, who doesn't want to have their own land? The officers and soldiers have always emphasized that it was the county that ordered Zhang Jie and Zhang Shimin to give them land, and the tenants were grateful and virtuous.
Since then, Zhang Jie has won the reputation of the poor people. Of course, many families hated him to the core.
On the official road from Jizhou to Luoyang, two carriages, a hundred cavalry, a carriage pulled a few large boxes, and a carriage was Zhang Jie, Zhang Jie did not like to ride horses, and went back to Yecheng, the inner skin of the legs was worn out, and there was wine and meat in the carriage, although the carriage of this era did not have a shock absorption system. But it's quite comfortable to put a few quilts. One hundred cavalry were the private soldiers of the judges, plus Dian Wei. The shortest way from Yecheng to Luoyang is, first cross Hanoi County, and then cross the Yellow River in Mengjin. Some bandits on the road wanted to fight the idea of a carriage, but with a hundred cavalry pressing it, they could only think about it.
When he arrived in Luoyang, Zhang Jie pulled the carriage to Zhang Fu's house, Zhang Fu was also surprised when he saw Zhang Jie coming, it was only nine months, and Zhang Jie came back again. Zhang Jie first sent a box of gold and jade to Zhang Fu, and he was quite grateful to Zhang Fu and Zhang Jie. Zhang Fu was overjoyed. Then the two went straight to Zhang Rang's house. waited for a while in Zhang Rang's mansion before Zhang Rang returned, because he was on duty today. Zhang Jie opened two boxes, the smaller box was a box of gold cakes, and the larger box was a jade antique. Zhang Rang's eyes straightened, and said: I didn't expect Yecheng to be so rich, you have only been in office for more than half a year and you have so much money, it seems that there is still a future for being a local official.
