According to Xiao Xuan's opinion, it may be easy for other places to cause chaos, but the innovation of Huang'an County as a "general county" in later generations may not be so difficult? Therefore, not long after he went to the county in the Ming Dynasty, the acting county magistrate of Huang'an County, who had a lot of rebellion against science, was not the most outstanding and core member of the Datong Society, but only a model of battle in the second division of a volunteer division who had only been in the company for about half a year. However, in order to prevent accidents or even big troubles, the main force of the temporary regiment was about 1,000 people who came with this combat model of the Second Division. In this way, in addition to having enough garrison forces in the county town and other important areas, we can also have enough troops to "inspect" the townships, and we will also be able to replace the local officials to a large extent and extend their hands to the local grassroots to a large extent.

When Hao Shaoqi came to Huang'an County, he found that many situations seemed to be very different from his previous assumptions and perceptions, compared with many places in the northwest and even Shandong. Although there were also lower-class poor people in Huang'an County in this era, the people were one in the sky and one in the ground compared to many places in the north. With past experience, just by looking at the complexion of the people in a place like Huang'an, you know that there should be no big traitors in the local area, and there may not be too serious social exploitation.

"The king's proposition, as well as the 10,000-word vernacular list we brought over, have they been posted in various towns and villages? Why is it that it has been five days since I came to Huang'an County, and no one dares to go to the temporary outposts set up by us in various townships to "beat drums and voice grievances"? "Things don't seem to have made any progress for a few days, as if the whole Huang'an County is a county with few grassroots contradictions and problems, which makes Hao Shaoqi, who plans to produce results in a short period of time, feel quite bored.

A cadre of officers who was born in Huang'an and was somewhat educated explained: "Since Li Hongfu set up academies and lectures in the Huang'an area, many scholars from other places have made the atmosphere of Huang'an a new place. Today's Huang An can be regarded as a rare good land in this world. It is not uncommon that there are no serious contradictions, not to mention that some of our ideas are too unbelievable in the eyes of the local people... ”

"Okay, okay, there's no need to talk nonsense" Hao Shaoqi said impatiently at this time: "As the saying goes, there must be brave men under heavy rewards, let's also learn from the so-called tyrannical Qin and even all kinds of evil people in ancient times, it seems that only by rewarding and encouraging whistleblowers can we stir up this talk backwater... ”

In this way, Hao Shaoqi quickly reposted the reward list in many places in Huang'an County, and the reward list was written by others under the auspices of Hao Shaoqi, so it was also very simple, and there were not many sets of words: "Spread the new policy of the township to reform the world: the new dynasty and the new law, the cultivator has his land, and it has been promulgated for more than a year, but because of the obstruction of the rebellious and chaotic party, it has not been known to people in all parts of the world." Those who do not know are not guilty for the time being, but they must atone for their sins. Since the Dragon Boat Festival last year, all the land rent of more than 20% and even all kinds of labor showdowns have been regarded as snatching people's property, and now, all the illegally obtained needs for unearned work belong to the common people. This agency county order gives each township seven days to surrender to the large households in each township, and if the head of the family flees or goes out during this period, it shall be deemed to have automatically given up all real estate and floating wealth; Whoever plunders it is not guilty. All servants who protect illicit wealth are regarded as repeat offenders against the government... The reward for reporting wrongdoing is as follows... ”

Compared with the first article of "many words without reading", the second article of the list has really caused a lot of sensation.

"What, what? As long as you list the 'illegal' floating wealth of those big households, and even the 'illegal gains' since last year, the whistleblower can get the 'exploiter's wealth' ranging from 10% to 50% depending on the size of the contribution? The highest can also get the position of temporary acting township head, and become a security army commander? It can't be a joke, right? ”

"Where's the joke? If you don't believe me, how about I pool money for you to go to Xuzhou to have a look? See if these ideas for revolutionizing the world are true or false? ”

Although according to common sense, not many people should believe such an unconventional list. However, Hao Shaoqi had already prepared and organized a lot of trustees to "explain" at any time in a place where enough people had gathered, which was completely different.

At first, there seemed to be no movement, but something finally happened on the third day of the new list. A group of robbers of unknown origin ransacked a large family in Zhonghe Township, who had fled long before the head of the family. After finding those people, the government not only pardoned their innocence, but also began to build the "Monument of Righteousness" to erect a monument to the first person who rose up to resist the "private legal power", which greatly surprised the people in many places in Huang'an County.

Although many people suspect that those people are also the victims of the new government's unscrupulous means, the meaning behind this is that all legal protections for the propertied and even the big families are gone. There are cases where robbery can be done without breaking the law and even being rewarded.

As a result, many large households in the counties can no longer sit still. However, at this time, people had not yet understood the style of the new government, and many local talents, children's voices, and even well-known psychologists began to plan to gather outside the county government of Huang'an County to protest and make trouble, but when the crowd had just gathered. A group of spies and gangsters armed with sticks and rocks rushed over and besieged the gathered crowd. The siege was tightly encircled from all directions, and in a hurry, more than 300 people who came to protest tried to escape, and hundreds of people were killed in front of the yamen, and dozens of seriously injured people died in front of the yamen because of their injuries. Only some people completely gave up the spirit of reading in the face of this terrible threat, crying and begging for mercy, and finally survived. At this time, the gentry of the entire Huang'an County really believed that the sky had changed. The government and the law have become their enemies.

What makes Hao Shaoqi have to admire is that he made such a bold fuss, and it did not make the entire Huang An completely messed up. Few ordinary people dared to come to inform, and the first one to come to inform, was a housekeeper from a not too low background, a foreigner in Jiangxi in his forties.

"Lord Qiqi Qingtian... Oh, no, chief, hehe, chief... I expose! I revealed that the excess consumption and illegal exploitation of Li Yuanwai's family in Elongzhen Town in the past year have been converted into more than 13,000 stone rice and even the price of rice, and each transaction is recorded in more detail. I don't know if Li Yuanwai can turn himself in before taking the initiative in the past... ”
