Chapter 315: Killing local tyrants also requires after-sales (ask for subscriptions, recommendations, and collections)

Seeing that His Royal Highness King Xin finally had a reaction, Ruan Dacheng hurriedly organized the language carefully.

"Your Highness doesn't know that this Qingzhou boundary belongs to a relatively densely populated narrow township in the Ming Dynasty.

It's always been a lot of people and a lot of land.

The five gentry broke their homes, and all the land was sold. Land buyers will certainly make adjustments to the tenants. This will inevitably result in a large number of tenants being evicted from their homes.

And the crimes of these five gentry are all major crimes of rebellion, and the clansmen and slaves will be implicated.

I don't know how many people will be displaced and how many people will starve to death on the streets. ”

Seeing that His Royal Highness King Xin had a reaction, Ruan Dacheng hurriedly increased his exaggeration of the pessimistic prospects.

Ruan Dacheng can see that His Royal Highness King Xin seems to be very sensitive to the homeless, which may be the best reason to persuade King Xin to make a move.

"Outcasts?"

Zhu Youzhen groaned.

Although Ruan Dacheng didn't directly pick it out, Zhu Youzhen still understood what he meant.

Five powerful families were broken, and their fields were auctioned. Those who buy land will certainly give preference to tenants with whom they are more familiar.

What's more, there must be a large number of named fields in the fields of the five heroes.

In order to avoid the taxes of the imperial court, farmers put their fields under the names of people with meritorious names.

In this way, the peasant households were able to take advantage of the tax exemption privileges of the meritorious to relieve themselves of onerous taxes and forced labor.

Of course, this kind of registration is not free, and there is a considerable risk for the registered farmers.

For example, if the nominal person has a bad intention to embezzle the nominee property, or if the nominee person has an accident like Wu Haoqiang and breaks the house, then those nominal farmers will lose all their money.

Because in the government's fish scale book, the land they registered belonged to someone else's name.

Like Wuhao, the buyer who bought the famous field will allow the original owner to stay?

That is, of course, impossible.

In addition, in order to escape the poll tax of the Ming Dynasty, there are still a large number of black households hidden in these powerful families.

I am afraid that these black households will not be fewer than normal tenants. This is also a large group of people.

Speaking of which, the collapse of the house is like the bankruptcy of a factory, which will definitely cause a large number of people to live without a livelihood.

Well, that's a real problem.

Zhu Youzhen really frowned.

Come to think of it, the population involved in each of these township tyrants who dominate one side is probably not less than a few thousand.

In the Chongzhen Dynasty in the previous life, the people of the Ming Dynasty first experienced a series of major cases of the eunuch party during the Apocalypse, and then experienced a series of major cases of Chongzhen's liquidation of the eunuch party.

There are not a few heroes who have solved their homes because of these big cases.

Is this also a big reason why there are many people in Chongzhen?

No, I'm really going to ask about it.

Thinking of this, Zhu Youzhen really couldn't sit still.

"Ruan Changshi, how many people can be displaced in Qingzhou?"

"This, there will probably be tens of thousands."

Hearing Wang's inquiry about the specific number of displaced people, Ruan Dacheng replied in a speculative tone.

Ruan Dacheng only wanted King Xin to come forward to stop the tax inspector's destruction of the local squire.

Before he gave the reason for being homeless, Ruan Dacheng had never thought about the poor people who were displaced.

Since he never thought about it, how could Ruan Dacheng know how many people would be displaced.

said that the number of tens of thousands, this is still in order to allow King Xin to come forward, Ruan Dacheng is trying his best to say the number of displaced people in many places.

Looking at Ruan Dacheng's performance, Zhu Youzhen knew that Ruan Dacheng was simply using those homeless people as a cover.

However, even so, Zhu Youzhen's question of the displaced people is still full of ends.

The destructive power of the displaced people really cannot be underestimated.

In the previous life, didn't the Ming Dynasty finally die in the hands of the exiles?

The tax supervisor killed the local tyrant, and Zhu Youzhen was very happy to see it.

But Zhu Youzhen believes that if you want to kill those local tyrants, you can't be as unprofessional as tax supervisor Sun Ming. You can't just kill and bury it, leaving a big mess.

If that's the case, then it's really better not to kill.

If you don't kill, at least the society is still a little more stable; At least those little people can still have something to eat.

And killing the local tyrants, without any aftermath, really wants to create a large number of displaced people, isn't that still a routine of peasant uprising?

Thinking of this possibility, Zhu Youzhen really couldn't ignore it.

How?

Worried that Ruan Dacheng's killing of local tyrants might cause a large number of displaced people and trigger social unrest, Zhu Youzhen quickly figured out a way to deal with it.

"Ruan Changshi, can our palace go to Qingzhou to buy land?"

What, what?

Ruan Dacheng almost bit his tongue.

This is not the right way to open!

Ruan Dacheng wanted King Xin to come forward to stop the eunuchs and tax supervisors. But Ruan Dacheng never imagined that King Xin would ask such a sentence.

What does it mean that King Shin asked?

Is Shinoh trying to take advantage of the situation to expand his estate?

"This, this ......"

Ruan Dacheng didn't know how to answer King Xin for a while.

"Can't you?" Seeing Ruan Dacheng's spitting, Zhu Youzhen asked unhappily.

No way?

Can Ruan Dacheng say no?

According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, the vassal king himself cannot leave the fiefdom, but the Ming Dynasty really does not seem to have a rule that prohibits the vassal king from buying land.

At least the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty bought land privately, and that was already an open secret.

This made Ruan Dacheng dare to say no to King Xin.

"Okay."

Ruan Dacheng finally held back a word.

Seeing Ruan Dacheng's expression of almost holding back his internal injuries, a smile appeared on the corner of Zhu Youzhen's mouth.

If you want me to make a move, how can I do it without a lot of benefits.

After being proud, Zhu Youzhen remembered the original intention of looking for Ruan Dacheng.

"Ruan Changshi, how did you say that Gu offended that Tu Wenfu? He actually ran to the eldest brother to complain about Lone's black state, why did Lone have such a big hatred with him? ”

Speaking of Tu Wenfu, Zhu Youzhen's face was full of incomprehensible expressions.

"Tu Wenfu? That Imperial Horse Supervisor palm print Tu Wenfu? ”

Without the slightest preparation for King Xin's question, Ruan Dacheng instinctively asked rhetorically.

"That's right, it's the old Tu of the Imperial Horse Supervisor. However, now he has been transferred to the Salary Saving Division.

Hmph, dare to falsely accuse this king, Lone will give him a good look sooner or later. Zhu Youzhen said hatefully.

Tu Wenfu was transferred to the Salary Division?

Ruan Dacheng was very surprised by this news.

The palm seal of the Imperial Horse Supervisor can be regarded as the third person in the inner court, ranking second only to the palm seal of the master of ceremonies and the commander of the East Factory in the inner court.

Such a high-ranking eunuch in the inner court was transferred to the Salary Division because of King Xin.

Even if Tu Wenfu's rank has not been lowered, he is still a eunuch. But being transferred to the Salary Division is equivalent to being kicked out of the inner circle.

Tu Wenfu: This can be regarded as ruined.

Thinking of this, Ruan Dacheng finally had an intuitive understanding of the favor received by His Royal Highness King Xin in front of him.

No wonder Wei Zhongxian didn't dare to face my family's prince.

Feeling the authority of King Xin, Ruan Dacheng was relieved.

With such a master to protect us, who would dare to provoke us from those eunuchs and tax supervisors.

Is it any wonder that His Highness wants to buy the fields?

It turned out that His Highness didn't take those eunuchs in his eyes at all.

Then why don't I go and buy some land?

The fear receded, and Ruan Dacheng's greed suddenly rose.
