Chapter 481 - Replacement of Land
In order not to force these wealthy clans too much, Lu Peng decided to use one hundred acres of grassland on the grassland to replace one acre of fertile land in the hands of the big family.
Why is Lu Peng sparing no effort to recover the land in the hands of the wealthy family? It is to store the land for the future population development of Youzhou, and if you don't take advantage of this troubled era to extract the land annexed by the wealthy, it will be after this village, and there will be no more of this shop, and now Lu Peng's thinking is that although my population is insufficient now, even if there is a huge amount of land that cannot be cultivated and restored, then I would rather keep the rabbit and get it first.
Such a policy does not need to be explained, the upper and lower officials and people of insight understand the importance of this matter, such as the current Cao Cao, he also discovered this key problem, so he issued the most famous tuntian order, to carry out the tuntian of soldiers and people.
However, Yanzhou and Qingzhou have always been the ruling centers of the Han Dynasty, densely populated, and the big families abound, and the land annexation is even more serious. So the various wealthy families united and resisted together, and all kinds of rebellions were endless, that was really pressing the gourd and scooping, and the gourd and the scoop were pressed, and there was one more monk to take a bath, and finally Cao Cao finally understood how huge the influence of the family was, and finally made the decree of this military tun half-falling, and then it died down.
But Lu Peng is not, as the so-called one hand with a stick and one hand with a carrot, I will exchange a hundred acres of land on the grassland for one acre of land for you, this is a fool who knows the huge bargain in the middle, of course he is willing to change.
But if you still occupy the extra land and don't hand it over, and you don't want to go to the bitter cold land in the north to be a lord, then I'm sorry, I'm going to raise the banner of the law, check whether you have violated the law and discipline, this generation is not afraid, let's go up, the previous generation didn't, it doesn't matter, let's continue to check up, check your ancestors for 18 generations, I don't believe you haven't done anything like stealing chickens and dogs, anyway, the Jinyi Guards under my own hands, investigating the case, framing is an absolute strength at this point.
It's really not good, Xu Jie's special team began to dispatch, and several strong gangsters suddenly appeared on the land of Youzhou, they killed people and goods, and they also killed those wealthy families, and they definitely burned them all and robbed them all, and when the menacing Youzhou army came to suppress them, they had already evaporated from the world and did not know where to go.
Clear-eyed people also saw the cattiness in this, since there are huge interests, why bother to fight with Lu Peng, so the family represented by the Bohai Gao family happily accepted Lu Peng's exchange conditions, not only got the huge land of the grassland, but also took advantage of this opportunity to disperse his family to other places to spread out and expand the influence of the family, which is a way to kill multiple birds with one stone.
The head of the Gao family decided to divide the Gao family into two, and took out all the land in his hand to exchange the land on the grassland with Lu Peng, except for maintaining the minimum wealth and survival of the Bohai family, to support the development of the other family in the grassland.
How much did the Gao family take, a full 500,000 mu, and from this point it can be seen how serious the land annexation was at that time.
500,000 acres in exchange for 50 million acres of grassland, what is this concept? That is the scale of a country, that is the real land in his own hands, according to the original Lu Peng's bonfire covenant, the Gao family will have the ownership of this land for generations, provided that as long as he does not rebel, as long as he pays the rent every year according to the price of one mu and ten catties of grain, that is, two steel coins.
So with the voucher of 50 million acres of land, the head of the Gao family trembled with excitement, standing on the endless prairie, the men, women and children of the entire family were excitedly lying on the ground, kissing this piece of land that will always belong to them.
Their family will thrive here without worry, and will not rebel, of course, but I will be the king here, you can't control it, there was no such article in the original covenant. Now that I am a prince, I can now close the door so that the descendants of the slaves below will not call me patriarch, but directly call me King of Qi, how can I drop it - so, Northern Qi, two hundred years in advance, was quietly born in the depths of this grassland.
After getting this secret news, Lu Peng laughed and quacked: "If you want to be the king of Qi, then you can do it on that grassland, it has nothing to do with me, as long as you pay tribute every year, then I will be a son of Zhou Tianzi." In this way, I have also risen the tide, haven't I? ”
At this time, Lu Peng suddenly had an urge to go to the grassland to meet the alliance and live Zhou Tianzi's addiction.
Once the officials were there, and the land was there, then another great migration began. But this time the population migration is no longer imported from outside, because Yuan Shao has also learned to be obedient, and tried his best to block the influx of displaced people to Youzhou, and Cao Cao's Qingzhou is even more strictly guarded, and would rather let those people under their governance, starve to death in the ditch, and never let a single person flow into Youzhou.
The original purpose of this war was to find a new living space for the three million people in Youzhou, as well as the nearly one million people released by each family, so as to alleviate the land and leave enough land for the remaining people to multiply in the future.
This is a plan for thousands of years, because the Chinese are too capable of giving birth, as long as the days are a little more stable, the baby will be born in a litter, a couple, by the time of seven or eighty, there are no hundreds of children and grandchildren under your knees, you are embarrassed to go out and greet people.
Therefore, the flow of sufficient land for these soon-to-be-born populations is also something that should be considered in the long run.
But it is not a simple matter to relocate the population, these displaced people who originally came from other places, after a few years, under the rule of Lu Peng, have accumulated a lot of family business, and now they have regarded this as their homeland, you let him move out now, and start again, the resistance is imaginably huge.
In the face of such resistance, Lu Peng also scratched his head, the people are the foundation of their own existence, and they must take care of the people as much as possible in order to get the greatest support, so they can't use force against the people, which is diametrically opposed to the practices of other warlords.
Since you can't use force, let's lure it, or what else can you do?
