Chapter Ninety-Two: All for the Northern Expedition
If it was just curiosity at the beginning, then hearing now, Kong Ming's heart is more shocked, full of shock, in his opinion, Liu Chan's idea is very novel, it can be said that it has broken the secular cage, and a different system of acres will appear in Hanzhong.
"Does Your Majesty want to implement it in Hanzhong, or does it plan to implement it throughout the country?" At this time, Kong Ming's tone became a lot calmer, without the previous severity, as if he was really attracted by Liu Chan's good strategy.
"Hanzhong can only be said to be a pilot, in fact, in addition to Hanzhong, there are also different degrees of land barrenness in various parts of Shuzhong, there is a lot of fertile land no one cultivates, and the biggest feature of this acre system is that the more you plow, the more you harvest, to avoid the disadvantages of doing more and doing less. In short, there is a lot of land, and as long as the people want to plant it and are willing to take action, then China's grain harvest will not increase. ”
"There are feasible things in this matter, but we still need to discuss it carefully with Shu Taishou Yang Hong, Dong Cao Peng, Jiang Wan."
Hearing Kong Ming's words, Liu Chan couldn't help but feel a sense of boredom in his heart, really ink! However, what he thought in his heart, Liu Chan couldn't speak, thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed, if he had enough power and didn't need to be restrained by Zhuge Liang, then everything didn't need to be like this, and the heart of desire that had just been silent became a little restless.
Anyway, Lu Liu Chan has already thought about it, at this time Kong Ming disagreed, so he could only wait, the land policy with the previous population policy to encourage more births and more children, as well as the corresponding military service system, it is difficult to say what can be improved in terms of economy, but in the era of war, a few years will be enough to effectively develop the people's livelihood and national strength.
Thinking of this, Liu Chan's gaze became firm again, he couldn't wait, time was pressing, he had to persuade Zhuge Liang to agree with his idea, or give himself a clear reason for refusal.
"Father, there are three benefits to the implementation of this acre system."
"First, the people who grant the land have the people's livelihood in their hands, the official army and the second field, and the official land is not allowed to trade, which also ensures that the people have a trace of survival foundation in their hands, and will not become a wealthy tenant, even if they are poor, as long as they are willing to work hard, there is still a mouthful of food."
"Second, the wanderers, savages, aliens and even wealthy families will voluntarily contribute their membership in order to obtain the land, as for the jurisdiction of the imperial court's household registration, so that at least in the form of pulling these people to the ship of Shu, on the surface they have also become people of Shu, which is conducive to transforming people from other places into the Shu court, so that the number of farmers controlled by the court has greatly increased, and then the source of taxation is guaranteed.
"Three..."
Listening to Liu Chan's talk, Kong Ming's calm face was actually shocked, before listening to Liu Chan, Kong Ming can only temporarily understand that this is to restore domestic production, increase the annual income of grain, if there is enough time, let him think carefully and a few times, I can't think of other thoughts hidden in this, but, at least these thoughts, now Kong Ming did not think.
Moreover, even if you can think of it later, it is far less shocking than Liu Chan himself said it himself, speculation is speculation, Liu Chan personally said that this is his own idea, but the acre system involves the integration of ethnic minorities, attracting foreign population to increase the national population, and even the household registration brought about by the division of fields, in a certain aspect, the imperial court has strengthened the control of the local and people, which is actually a weakening of the scholars.
In fact, this new system of acres is not completely detached from the previous two types of land systems, but it has learned from each other's strong points and made certain revisions to restore the national strength at the present stage.
Different from Romance, compared to military talent, what Kong Ming is best at, and what he is most happy to do, is to govern the country and deal with internal affairs, rather than conquering abroad, although Liu Chan said that the law is still a little immature in his opinion, but it is not bad to be able to think like this, after all, His Majesty is only seventeen years old.
The corners of Kong Ming's mouth lifted slightly, and he asked with a smile: "What about the third benefit?" Please let Your Majesty finish it all along! ”
"This third, Longxi, Liangsui long-term war, population reduction, with the demise of many great families such as Fufeng Ma, there are also many barren fields, the situation is very similar to Hanzhong, as long as the policy can be successfully implemented in Hanzhong, then it can be copied in Longxi, Liangsui and other places."
And this policy can lay the foundation for our army to capture Liangsui and other places in the future, recover the hearts of the people, and reduce potential hidden dangers for our army's Northern Expedition! It can be said that to some extent, the policy is also for the Northern Expedition! ”
"And if this is the case, it only takes one year, and tens of thousands of soldiers can be obtained to help restore the Central Plains and rejuvenate the Han Dynasty!"
Like, how can we bring the people of the world together?
The world is not the world of one person, but the world of all peoples; Those who benefit from the people of the world will gain the world: those who monopolize the interests of the people of the world will lose the world!
Since ancient times, those who have won the hearts of the people have won the world, what is the heart of the people, in fact, is to let the people have hope for you, have a sense of belonging to you, nothing more than one point, that is, you can give the people beyond the original benefits, the friendship of interests is the simplest and most reliable.
If the Northern Expedition is successful and the control of Longxi, Liangsui and other places is controlled, it will certainly be like this, and it will definitely be able to be attached to the people in the shortest possible time, get the support of the people, and make them turn their hearts to the Han.
In this way, after the Northern Expedition, the Shu army can also reduce the number of garrisons for the land gained, and it will be easier to assimilate the original county soldiers of the Wei State, Zhuangding.
For this acre system, Liu Chan refers to the Juntian system of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty in later generations, although there are changes, but it is nothing more than to mobilize people's enthusiasm.
"Good! The sky is also dawning, and it is time for Liang to call Yang Hong and Jiang Wan to come and discuss! Glancing at the bright world outside, Kong Ming said lightly, and there was no clue on his calm face.
Hearing this, Liu Chan was overjoyed, Kong Ming finally stopped giving an ambiguous answer, but planned to start discussing, which was enough for Liu Chan, if Zhuge Liang directly agreed, it would be strange, it was not easy to persuade like this.
"Unconsciously, I actually talked with my father for a long night, which is really beneficial, okay, then let's get here first, I should also prepare to go to court!" Liu Chan wiped his face, stood up and said.
"Your Majesty, today is the day of rest, there is no need to go to court early!" Huang Hao, who had also stood all night, reminded in a low voice.
"Really? Yang Ping ran a trip and forgot the time! Liu Chan patted his forehead and smiled.
"Your Majesty is also tired, so go back to the palace to rest, and the ministers will discuss with Your Majesty later!" Kong Ming also stood up and bowed.
"Well, since that's the case, then I'll go back to the palace to rest first, and my father will need to teach me more in the future!"
"Your Majesty is smart, and the ministers will discuss state affairs with Your Majesty!"
