Chapter 394: The Scramble (44)

I don't know how to negotiate in the end, at least in the territory of Juxian County, the recruitment of new Long March athletes has been successfully implemented, with Liu Ji, a negative example, in Antou Village, Qinling Township, the Liu family can no longer prevent children like Liu Ke who have no intention of learning from enlisting for recruitment, and from the general trend, male soldiers are still appreciated by the mainstream of society, not to mention, joining the army is not only risk, but has a great future.

In the final analysis, the complete victory of the Tang Dynasty over Tubo inspired the atmosphere of the whole society, and even made the men in Guanzhong, who were not afraid of death, have a better way out than running away.

"Who are we? Since the generation of the old Qin people, we will only be the same, throw away the pocket, carry the knife, chase to the edge of the sky barefoot, and also pick off the enemy's head, pin it in the belt, and then go to find the next one, and wait until the enemy is gone, come back and exchange the head for military merit, change the acre, and award the knighthood. Military merit is the life of our people in Guanzhong, the field, what is it, there is no Guanzhong, so go to the outside of the gate to get it, a hundred acres, and give it to the place, all of them are good water to irrigate the land, an acre of grain is not less than 300 catties, according to today's grain prices, a catty is a penny and a half, a hundred mu is 30,000 catties, 45,000 yuan! ”

Wu Bingcao led people to preach in all towns and towns that all men over the age of fifteen and under forty must be present, and although the squires did not want to, they could only obey, because their handle fell into the hands of others, that is, to flee households.

A pound of grain and rice is a penny and a half, this is the lowest grain price in the Tianbao years, after the Beijing warehouse was emptied, it rose slightly, but when the grain storage in Luokou warehouse was transported, the price would definitely go down, but even if it was calculated according to this grain price, the harvest of a hundred acres of good land was still mouth-watering, 45 yuan! According to the rules, pay two taels of taxes, seven to eight taels of rent money, and about ten taels of servitude money, how can you leave half of the amount, then it will all belong to your own family, not to mention, in the era when grain is hard currency, that is to grow gold.

It is precisely for this reason that in the early days of the government military system, the combat effectiveness of the Tang people was incredibly strong, Liu Ji wanted to attract them to join the army, the fastest and most effective way is to use the field to attract them, of course, the price of the field outside the Guanzhong is several times different from that of Guanzhong, and the grain that can be produced is the same, all of which are valuable.

"Will there really be a hundred acres?"

"It's just more, no less, and a hundred acres is scared? This is just a grant of land, as well as a vocational field, a meritorious field, and a Yongye field, as long as you have the ability, you can take as much as you can. ”

"There is no one to plant the land?"

"Why not, your family is just you, bring your mother-in-law and boy, they are in charge on weekdays, whether they hire people or grow their own seeds, it's not a thing, and when your kid grows up, it's a hundred acres, the government encourages everyone to go to the family, and those who don't have a household registration will be registered, and those who have a family business here will be sold, and we will lack people outside the customs, but there is no shortage of fields, such good conditions, that is, for the war in the north, now, how can there be those people who don't open their eyes, dare to challenge our Tang Dynasty? I'm not afraid to tell you, maybe it's the last one, wait until the rebellion is quelled, Qingning in the four seas, why don't you go on to run away, today there is no tomorrow's meal, the children are all implicated, the number of places is limited, if it weren't for Liu Zhechong's compassion for the villagers, just these 10,000 people, they were snatched up early in the morning, think about it, how many people are there in our Jingzhao Mansion alone, and there are also related to the inner road, and Longyou ......"

A propaganda and agitation, the drudgery of eating sand out of the customs has become a good livelihood from the field to the household, a limited number of places are heard, it is a person will be nervous, the original heart immediately becomes solid, the original sway, suddenly becomes scorching, the original unintentional, become ready to move, delicious is not afraid of grabbing, Liu Ji used the hunger marketing method of later generations, and deliberately ignored the distance from Guanzhong to outside the Guanzhong, which makes people feel in a trance that there is a field when they lift their feet out of the pass, and the effect received is surprisingly good.

"But I'm busy with my subordinates, but I'm busy with my subordinates."

In the back hall of Shanxin Mansion, Liu Ji couldn't help but hold a thick military book.

"How many people are there?"

"One thousand seven hundred and sixty-six."

Wu Bingcao fanned the wind, panting heavily, Liu Ji handed a cup to his hand, and the former drank it without even looking at it.

"The jade pot spring in the capital, why do you make your subordinates drink it."

"You deserve it, if you like it, take two jars home today." Liu Ji patted the military book: "How many people can you recruit in our county?" ”

"It's hard to say, there should be three thousand, if you count the people who drag the family with their mouths, five thousand can't be stopped."

"That's good, you remember, I need two kinds of people the most, one is literate, the other is the field style, if these two people are interested, the conditions can be more generous, you can do it at your discretion."

"Subordinates remember."

Wu Bingcao's eyes lit up, the reason why he worked so hard was because Liu Ji promised that every time he recruited a hundred more people, they would have additional rewards, and if he wanted people to contribute, it was nothing more than that, spending money was the most direct and effective.

What's the use of money, what he lacks most now is someone who runs errands.

King Yong died unexpectedly, and he didn't even find a corpse, so he could only give a set of prince's honor guards to be buried, and when he returned from the funeral, Li Qi was like a lost soul, and his face became as white as paper.

Because he knows what is going on.

In the back garden of King Sheng's mansion, Ji Wen no longer needs to be supported, he can pac slowly, but there is still some pain behind him, and he can't make a big move.

"Mr. Ji, save me."

Li Qi still had a blank coat on his body, and the whole person stumbled to the ground, and he couldn't stand steadily.

Gwin had to hold his hand, and the two sat down in the pavilion in the garden.

"Funeral?"

Li Qi's lips turned white, and he said in a non-trivial manner: "None of them survived, they only found scattered bones, twelve guards, how could they all be devoured by wild beasts, he must have done it, he must have done it." ”

"He's dead, he's dead, what are you afraid of?"

"I'm afraid ......" Li Qi opened his mouth and looked at the other party.

Ji Wen said unhurriedly: "Yulin Jun got a female assassin outside the Daozheng Square that day, reported suicide, and the other died on the spot, and then there was the incident of the Yongwang, you guess that he did it, it is not surprising, what is terrible is not how clever his methods are, but forbearance, the matter did not stab the Supreme, but did such a big deed in private, what does it mean?" ”

"Please sir."

"It shows that he doesn't take the law and discipline in his eyes at all, and he is not afraid of you poking it out, which reminds me of King Anjun, but unfortunately, King Anjun is far inferior at his age."

"Sir, will he?"

"No, those two people have been raised by King Anjun since childhood, and no one recognizes him except him, and if they are taken, they will only confess according to what we teach, and the matter can't be found on your head, on the contrary, now he is attacking King Yong, isn't it just what you want? It is said that they are good friends with the prince, and now that he has blatantly killed the prince's favorite brother, will there be room for him to turn around if it is exposed in the future? ”

Li Qi was persuaded by him, and his heart calmed down somewhat, but the fear of being dead seemed to be carved into his bones, even if a cup of hot wine was poured into his throat, he still couldn't suppress the coldness of "whooshing".
