Chapter 501: Retribution

The realm of Beizhou is very different from the past, now the season has reached the end of spring, if in normal times, the crops have already grown green seedlings, Qian Buli looked around, saw that a lot of crops were barren there, and all the weeds competing to come out were all kinds of weeds, this scene made Qian Buli behind the two old masters shake their heads and sigh. Adult mini-games .

The two old masters are officials seconded from the Shunzhou government by Qian Buli, one is called Xin Tong, and the other is called Du Qingsheng, to paraphrase the modern language, they are very experienced in agricultural exhibitions and agricultural construction, and Qian Buli lent them out in order to adopt a method of combining rigidity and softness to deal with the local tyrants in Beizhou and other places.

Along the way, Qian Buli can always see that there are many farmers on both sides of the cultivated land are busy, and the people who rely on the land to eat are fighting for a time, if they do not lay a good foundation in the spring, even if they work hard in the future, the harvest will not be good, and the farm work at this time will definitely not be delayed.

However, the busy farmer in Beizhou did not even have a third of the other state capitals, and it looked a little desolate, and Qian Wuli, who had no experience in farm work, felt the seriousness of the problem, he gently reined in the war horse, turned around and said: "Master Du!" ”

Du Qingsheng hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "I am here." ”

"You probably know the situation, is there any remedy?"

"It's difficult, it's difficult...... Du Qingsheng shook his head and said, "Return to the general." Now that the sowing period has been missed, even if it is a rush to sow a seed, it will be a bamboo basket to draw water and no harvest. ”

Qian Buli frowned, the people take food as the sky, if this year's harvest in Beizhou is sharply reduced, it is inevitable that there will be chaos at that time. Although the cabinet can subsidize the people, it is a big burden on its back. It's just an unnecessary thing.

"Let's go to the front post station and rest for a while, and ask some random people about the situation. Qian Buli said: "Cheng Da, immediately send someone to inform Su Baiye, the assassin of the Beizhou Mansion, and order him to come!" ”

"Yes!" Cheng Da agreed, and then made a gesture, and the two guards drove their horses straight out and galloped in the direction of the Beizhou Mansion.

The inn is small though. But in the case of not knowing that Ji Shengqing was coming to Beizhou, the post station was still very clean and tidy, Qian Buli first settled Ji Shengqing properly, and then praised the little officials of the post station a few words, at this time Gu Jian had already brought a few old farmers over.

"Sit down, old men. Qian Buli led it with his hand, and he sat down first, no one dared to sit down first if he didn't sit in the venue first.

A few old peasants only knew that the young man in front of him was an official of the imperial court. But I didn't know the specific identity, looked at each other, sat on the wooden bench a little stiffly, and stared at Qian silently.

"Don't be nervous, a few old people, I didn't mean anything else when I called you, I just wanted to ask. Why are there so many places in Beizhou that no one has planted them? Qian Buli said with a smile.

"This official, it's been a long time, and the official should also know about my defeat of the Rus country by General Qian, right? The general knocked down thousands of miles of land, no one cultivated, the court conscripted farmers to go over, it is said that everyone can get ten acres of land, and there are free cattle and horses to use, and the crops who have no land in this land heard such a good thing, and they all dragged their families to the north to beg for a living, alas. So there are fewer and fewer of them. A very talkative old farmer replied.

"Then why don't you go?"

"Official. People say that fallen leaves return to the roots, right? We're all old bones, and we don't want to go anywhere else. Besides, there are still a few acres of thin fields at home, barely able to beg for food and clothing, and we will stay, but most of the young people in my village are gone, and they may not be able to save a few acres of land if they work here for a lifetime. ”

"That's right. Qian Buli said with a smile: "But there are so many lands in Beizhou that no one has planted, isn't the owner of the land going to die in a hurry?" ”

"To put it mildly, sir, this is retribution!" The old farmer sighed: "If those big families had been ...... in previous years"

Before the old farmer could finish his words, the person next to him touched his arm lightly, and the old farmer immediately shut up and stopped talking.

"Old man, don't worry, no matter what you say here, no one will come to embarrass you. Qian Buli saw the other party's small movements.

"Is the official a wind patrol?" The chatty old farmer asked curiously.

"It's not. Gu Jian interjected and said: "Old man, we are the people of the great general, even if you put your heart in your stomach, even if it is the assassin history of your Beizhou Mansion, you must behave in front of us, so you don't have to be afraid of anyone, and you don't have to be afraid of anything." ”

Gu Jian didn't speak, it was okay, just after he finished speaking, the eyes of several old farmers were focused on Qian Buli's silver-white long eyebrows, Qian Buli's feature was too significant, and several old farmers noticed Qian Buli's eyebrows as soon as they came in, but they couldn't believe that the young man in front of them was the general of Ji Zhouguo, thinking that Qian Buli was another person with white eyebrows. Now after listening to Gu Jiandi's hints, no matter how stupid a person is, he knows who the young man in front of him is, several old farmers have become nervous, their hands and feet are trembling, they don't know where to put it, they want to give Qian Buli and kneel down and kowtow, but Qian Buli didn't clearly indicate his identity, he wanted to just talk like this, and he was afraid that he would be abrupt Qian Buli, left and right.

At this time, Yan Qingguo walked up with a few teacups, and Qian Buli picked up the teapot, made tea for a few old farmers with his own hands, and then sat down with a smile: "Old man, don't be in a hurry to talk first, are you thirsty?" It's never too late to drink some tea, and you're welcome to come to me. ”

Several old farmers picked up the tea, in extreme panic and anxiety actually forgot to pay attention to the temperature of the tea, some of the old farmers were scalded to squirt the tea, some endured the pain to swallow the tea, but were scalded out of tears, the scene became a little chaotic, one of the old farmers was the most unlucky, actually sprayed the tea on the face and body of Qian Buli, frightened to throw away the teacup, fell to the ground with a thud, trembling like chaff.

"Old man, what are you doing here? Get up! Qian Buli hurriedly stood up and helped the old farmer up with both hands, but the other party's body was already stiffened with fright, his legs were still so bent, Qian Buli's strength was greater, and finally the old farmer was suspended in the air, fortunately, Gu Jian took a step forward to support the old farmer, otherwise it would have been a joke.

If the principal person present had changed someone, even if he didn't say anything, his subordinates would have already begun to scold these old peasants. Qian Buli's guards all know Qian Buli's temperament, and no one jumped out to scold anyone, but everyone watched the excitement with a smile full of kindness.

The old farmer was frightened, and after sitting down, his eyes were still straight, and Qian Buli whispered a few words of comfort, and then turned his gaze to the talkative old farmer: "Old man, you all know about the tax reform, right?" What do you think? If you have any opinions, just say it. Also, just now you said that no one farmed the land as retribution? I don't understand that, can you explain? ”

This time, no one sent any more signals, and the talkative old farmer hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Big ...... Official, the official told us that the tax or something has changed, we were startled at first, and after asking to understand, we were very happy, I have six people in the family, only nine acres of land, now we don't have to pay any more taxes, great kindness! ”

"Yes, yes, my family won't have to pay taxes in the future!"

"My family has to pay 10%, but it is much stronger than in previous years. ”

The rest of the old peasants also echoed one after another, and when they mentioned the future, the expressions on their faces were much softened compared to just now, and they all put on smiles.

"However, those big families are miserable......" The talkative old farmer looked at Qian Qi's expression, and continued: "No wonder others, they used to know that it was difficult for the tenants, but now it's good, the tenants are gone, and they only remember the benefits of the tenants, it's late!" ”

"They just watch the fields without planting? Why don't you think of another way? Qian Buli asked.

"What can be done? Even if those big families lower their rents, no one is willing to contribute to them, I don't know in other places, the people who don't have land in that place are gone, and the people in the whole village are less than half, and the people with land in the family still have to be busy with their own work, and the tenant farmers of the big families can't get much land, that's called ...... What's that called? ”

"A drop in the bucket?" Qian Buli said with a smile.

"By the way, the official is still knowledgeable. The old farmer slapped his thigh: "So, this field can only look at the weeds, and I can't be busy!" ”

"They must have a lot of complaints, right?"

"That is, life can't go on, of course you have to complain, but what's the use of that? What did you think earlier? The old farmer sneered and said, "Official, I'm not afraid of your jokes, although we are poor, we are so poor that we have a conscience!" If those big families could have been nicer to the tenants in the past, no one would have picked on them immediately, so they had to wait until the master hired someone before leaving, sir, do you think that's the reason? In the past, they didn't care about the lives of their tenants, but now who cares about their lives or deaths? ”

"Li Dashan's tenants only left two households, and the others are working for Li Dashan's people, they are ready to leave after the summer, and the spring is busy and can not be delayed, everyone knows this reason. Another old farmer interjected.

"Li Dashanren? Where is their home? ”

"Walk ten miles forward from the official road, and then turn east on the dirt road, and the surrounding land belongs to Li Dashan's family. The talkative old peasant said, "This is called good retribution, evil retribution!" People Li Dashan people have a warm heart, who has a small disaster and a small difficulty to ask to go to the door, Li Dashan people have not pushed it, and now people don't get benefits? ! ”
