Chapter 471: Juntian Free Grain Part II (Page 1/1)

Since the founding of the Xia Dynasty, the Xia Dynasty has always pursued that all cultivated land is owned by the imperial court, in addition to the imperial court, the arable land that the emperor's relatives were rewarded by the imperial court, and the cultivated land purchased by various family forces from the imperial court can also have their own right to use, while the ordinary people do not have any arable land.

The common people usually lease cultivated land from the imperial court, the imperial relatives, and the family forces to sow seeds, and every time the grain harvest season, the people have to pay half of the harvested grain to the landlord's owner, and in addition to paying 30% of the grain tax to the local government, in addition to these two things, the people have worked hard for a year, and finally can only get 20% of the grain.

If there are natural disasters and man-made disasters, the grain production in the field is reduced or extinct, the people still have to pay grain taxes, if they can't get the grain, they must pay the equivalent money, if they can't take out the grain and can't pay the money, the government and the owner will raid the house to pay off the debt, such as robbing people.

The so-called free grain is to take out all the cultivated land that originally belonged to the imperial court and the major families, and distribute these cultivated land to the people, these cultivated land is no longer leased by the people, but is actually distributed to the people, not only that, but also exempt the people from paying taxes on the grain for farming, and after the grain exemption for the land, the people no longer need to pay grain taxes for farming.

Therefore, as long as Xia Yuanwei implements the policy of free grain in the field, he can instantly win the hearts of the people in the world, and at the same time, he can also gather the hearts of those poor talents and poor hermits, after all, the landlords and gentry in this world are only a few, and most of the people are poor people below, in addition, many soldiers and civil officials in the territory are also from the poor people's homes.

Therefore, as long as Xia Yuanwei draws the people to his side, in addition to being able to get the support of the people, he can also indirectly win over the generals and civil officials who came out of poor families, but in this way, Xia Yuanwei will anger those powerful and rich and powerful wealthy families, those people are all entrenched family forces, all of them have strong connections and economic strength, such as the Shen family who controls the trading building, and the Qian family who monopolizes the iron mines of the Xia Dynasty, they represent the upper class of the Xia Dynasty.

Everything Xia Yuanyu did was to seize the throne, so he didn't want to have a stalemate with those family forces, but Juntian's plan to free food could not but be implemented, so after weighing it, Xia Yuanjian thought of Zhongyuan Sakurako, he sent a secret letter to Zhongyuan Sakurako, told him about his plan, and then asked Zhongyuan Sakurako to help him clear some obstacles so that the plan could be implemented.

After receiving Xia Yuanji's secret letter, Nakamoto Sakurako praised Xia Yuanji's Juntian free grain plan, this plan seems to be for the good of the people on the surface, but it will show flaws in the later stage, Xia Yuanji's command has a large number of defectors, these people will consume a huge amount of food every day, if the people don't pay food, don't pay grain taxes, what will he do to feed everyone?

If Xia Yuanwei is sincerely promoting the policy of free grain in Juntian, this policy plan will naturally bring benefits to the people, but Xia Yuanwei is deceiving the people in the name of free grain in Juntian, and on the other hand, he doesn't want to offend those wealthy families, this is obviously deceiving the people, if he is really in the consideration of the people and implementing the free grain of Juntian, how can he worry about angering those family forces?

Sent someone to investigate the powerful families in the territory controlled by Xia Yuanji, and after finding out the details of those people, Zhongyuan Yingzi immediately dispatched troops to rob those wealthy families, because Xia Yuanwei was busy dispatching troops to crusade against the warlords during this time, so he transferred all the ten regiments under his command to the outside world, so that those families were robbed by the Japanese Bandits.

Hearing that the Japanese invaders sent dozens of soldiers and horses to raid their garrisons, Xia Yuanwei immediately brought the corps back to garrison, but unfortunately it was a step too late, and the Japanese withdrew their troops after they succeeded. After he went back, the rare items of those families were all robbed, and the patriarchs of many families were also killed, leaving only the corpses waiting for Xia Yuanji, looking at this scene, the corners of Xia Yuanji's mouth rose slightly.

Nakamoto Sakurako was also supervising him while cooperating with Xia Yuanji, she deliberately let Nakajima Ichiro and Sato Kiyoki be captured by Xia Yuanji, and the two of them were captured together with the two of the Japanese Invaders, on the surface, these people were all prisoners, but in fact they were all Nakamoto Sakurako placed next to Xia Yuanji to monitor him, and Xia Yuanji also understood Nakamoto Sakurako's intentions, seeing that Nakamoto Sakurako put the two corps by his side, he could only use the food of the Xia Dynasty to raise two Japanese Bandits for Nakamoto Sakurako.

After her and the intelligence department's analysis, Xia Yuanyou is most likely to join forces with Xia Yuanyu to start a civil war, but Zhongyuan Sakurako counted all the things, but he didn't count the influence of Nangong Hongru, and he dispelled Xia Yuanyou's thoughts and resolved a catastrophe with an understatement.

Originally, Zhongyuan Sakurako was frustrated because of the failure of the coalition, but she didn't expect Xia Yuanji to figure out this plan in a blink of an eye, she was extremely appreciative of Xia Yuanji's plan to deceive the people, and after helping Xia Yuanji eliminate the obstacles, Zhongyuan Sakurako no longer interfered with Xia Yuanji's plan, she shrunk all her forces back, and then hid in the dark to watch Xia Yuanji trouble the Xia Dynasty again.

……

"What? Xia Yuanwei implemented the free grain of Juntian? After Xia Yuanyou received the recital, he threw away the recital in his hand with an angry face: "The imperial court ordered that private trading and reselling of cultivated land were prohibited, but he openly implemented an edict contrary to the imperial court, which was clearly a rebellion. ”

……

"In the Prestige Frontier and its surrounding dependent territories, the grain will be exempted from all the fields, and all the people under the rule of the Prestige Frontier will be divided equally from now on, and not only that, but all the people will be exempted from the grain tax payable?" Xia Yuanwen took the secret letter handed over by Qiu Luobei, which recorded the movements of the famous frontier, and when he read the secret letter, Qiu Luobei said worriedly: "Looking at Xia Yuanji's recent performances, I'm afraid it's not good." ”

……

As soon as Ling Xia led the soldiers and horses into Ziyan Territory, before he could enter the city, Lao Cui sent a piece of information, and after reading the above content, Ling Xia scratched his head: "Xia Yuanjie has so many soldiers and horses, how can he implement free grain in Juntian?" He is so anxious to buy people's hearts, could it be that he wants to make a big move in the near future? Looking at this guy's actions some time ago, he shouldn't want to do something to his own people, right? ”
