Chapter 372: Mintun and Juntun

And in the case of this Mintun, the harvest is divided with the government. Those who use official cattle have seven officials and three people, and those who use private cattle have four officials and six people. In the case of the military tun, a battalion of 60 people took turns to defend the tuntian.

What Cheng Chong is now suggesting to Lu Bu is this system of dividing the tuntian, which is extremely unreasonable. With such a sharing system, exploitation is really quite serious. For example, the farmer who used the official cattle, the harvest turned out to be the official seven people and the three. How important! The difference between the two is worlds apart from those who use the cattle to farm.

"In the past, when I was in Hanoi, most of the people were people who used private cattle, and they were not very dissatisfied with the system of sharing the four officials and the six people, so they were able to implement the system well. However, when I was in Hanoi, I also saw that those who used the official cattle complained a lot, and the system of dividing the officials into seven and three people made them feel that they were being greatly exploited. When I was in Hanoi, many of those who used official cattle fled secretly, and some were not active in farming. This is because they feel that even if they harvest more, they will have to hand over to the government, and in the end, there is very little food in their hands. ”

Cheng Chong said.

After listening to Cheng Chong's statement, Lu Bu also frowned. When the Tuntian system was first formulated, Lu Bu took into account the matter of this official cow. Hanoi does not have many official cattle, and this ploughing cattle is precisely the most important problem in the tuntian. In order to make those people actively use private cattle for farming, there is such a distribution system.

Those who use official cattle for farming, and the division system with the government is seven officials and three people, in Lu Bu's eyes, there is not much of a problem. Those who use official cattle are some people who do not plough cattle. That means that they don't have the capital to survive, and the government gives them cattle to plough and allocates them land to cultivate, isn't it natural for them to share the high point of the system?

Not knowing Lu Bu's thoughts, Cheng Chong continued, "I think that for the Tunmin, this exploitation is indeed more serious. And now, most of these displaced people who have migrated from Jinyang do not have private cattle. In this way, they have to use the official cattle, but the division system of the seven officials and the three people will make them feel harsh, which will make those people passive and slack off. There is no shortage of ploughing cattle in the government now, so why doesn't the lord change the division system between those who use the cattle and the government from seven officials and three to six officials and four people, and change the system of sharing between those who use private cattle and the government from four officials and six to six officials and the people? ”

"Those who use official cattle, the official six and the people are four, and those who use private cattle, the government and the people are divided?"

Lu Bu pondered.

Cheng Chong, as a general of the Diannong Zhonglang, is still very clear about the matter of Tuntian. Lu Bu didn't think that Cheng Chong would lie to him, and from Cheng Chong's words, he could hear that this official seven people and three people did make those tun people very dissatisfied. Cheng Chong even said it extremely seriously, because there are still people fleeing from the tun!

Now Cheng Chong's suggestion is to increase the interests of those who use official cattle, and narrow the interests of those who use private cattle. As Cheng Chong said, few of these migrated homeless people have private cattle. The vast majority of these people want to use official cattle, and this practice will benefit a large number of displaced people. And more importantly, this Hetao area is no bigger than Hanoi, and there is no shortage of cattle in this place. As the saying goes, there should be different policies for different regions and different situations.

"I think I can decide so."

Lu Bu nodded slightly, and looked sideways at Cheng Chong, "Those who use official cattle, the official six and the people are four, and those who use private cattle are divided equally between the government and the people." In the future, the tuntian system will be implemented in accordance with this system. ”

"One more thing."

Cheng Chong continued to suggest to Lu Bu, "Since these tun people are arranged according to the military establishment, then they should also be strictly restrained. The people of the tun should be strictly ordered not to leave the tuntian where they are located at will, so as not to cause any trouble. Each county has set up a field official, and if there is a large-scale exodus of the people in any county, the local field official should be held responsible. Tun Sima is responsible, the pawn farmer is punished, the pawn farmer is responsible, and the pawn farmer is punished......"

Lu Bu agreed again.

At the time of their establishment, these agricultural officials were independent of the county, and they were all institutions set up to supply military rations. They were in charge of the tun people's tuning affairs. As Cheng Chong said, if those pawn officials have any faults, or if there is any crime, their superiors should deal with it. In short, the peasant officials were not governed by those counties. Even if it is a crime, it is not for the prefectural order and the Taishou to deal with it. The rank of this farmer is very clear, and the highest position of the farmer is Cheng Chong, the general of the farmer.

The first level of the pawn farmer is in charge of the first level, and the largest pawn farmer is Cheng Chong, which is directly governed by Lu Bu. Moreover, important matters such as the selection of the location of the tuntian and the handling of the escape of the peasants were also reported to the superiors by the pawn farmer, and then Cheng Chong, the pawn farmer, would ask Lu Bu for instructions, and it did not depend on the county magistrate at all.

Therefore, Cheng Chong suggested to Lu Bu that Lu Bu agreed to these tuntian matters. Among these suggestions, the system of tuntian can be further improved, and those tun people can cultivate with more peace of mind. However, there are some drawbacks to these suggestions. For example, Cheng Chong said that the people of the tuntian should be strictly restrained and not allowed to leave the land of the tuntian without authorization, which undoubtedly restricted the freedom of those tuntian people to a certain extent. But for now, there is no way to do this. If you really relax the management of these people, I don't know what kind of trouble it will cause. Moreover, these tun people are in accordance with the military establishment, in other words, this tuntian land is their post, if they leave the tuntian land without authorization, then they are not leaving their posts without permission?

After talking about Mintun, Cheng Chong said something about Juntun, but for Juntun, there was nothing to say. This Mintun system is an innovative move in this era, but Juntun is not. As early as the period of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, there was the concept of military tuntian. Therefore, the matter of Juntun can completely copy the system of the predecessors.

So far, starting from the tuntian system proposed by Han Hao, after the success of Cheng Chong as the captain of the agricultural school in Hanoi, and then to the current Hetao tuntian. The tuntian system has changed from immaturity to maturity, from deficiency to perfection. This tuntian system, which played a huge role in this era, was officially implemented.
