It can be said that Huang Jie's heart for "changing the law" is no less than that of the Northern Expedition to Jinguo, just in order not to shock the world, he has to hide it.

So, what is the reaction of the people to the matter of "changing the law"?

First of all, Shandong and Shaanxi are not rich and stable places at the moment.

Let's talk about Shandong first, although the entire Northern Song Dynasty is also considered to be peaceful for a long time, but the end of the Tang Dynasty and the rebellion of the Five Dynasties made Shandong's population base greatly reduced, and after entering the Northern Song Dynasty, it was in danger because of the rise of the Liao State, in addition to agriculture and animal husbandry as the pillars can not be taken lightly, the development of industry and commerce is not much, even if a Dengzhou and a Qingzhou have their own salt and sea benefits, but the output and taxes are simply negligible compared to the various roads in the south of the Yangtze River.

As for Shaanxi, that is, the entire Qinfenglu area centered on Qinzhou, the Liao, Dangxiang, Tubo and even Turkic people, but back and forth like a comb on this land for hundreds of years, except for a half-hung animal husbandry barely to maintain the local economy hanging by a thread, there is no industry, agriculture and business.

Therefore, for the Song Dynasty to use these two places as a pilot for law change, it is acceptable for people of insight in the Manchu Dynasty and the control officials of various roads and prefectures, after all, these two places are already like walls of dung, and no matter how bad the law change, it can be so bad.

Then, Huang Jie and Wang Hao discussed for a long time, and the "New Green Seedling Law" based on Wang Anshi's "Green Seedling Law" and the "One Whip Law" entrained in it, no matter how you look at it, it can be regarded as adhering to the will of Wang Anshi, Su Shi, and Huang Tingjian, and it can be accepted by the scholar class and the people in legal theory.

By the way, Yuan You is the name of Zhao Xu of Zhezong of the Northern Song Dynasty, this Laozi Shenzong Zhao Xu wanted to change the law, and used Wang Anshi to do things, and later his son Zhezong Zhao Xu did not change, so he let Sima Guang, who smashed the pot, carry out restoration.

From then on, those who supported the reform were called the Yuanfeng Party (Yuanfeng is the name of the Shenzong era), and those who opposed the reform were the Yuanyu Party.

In Zhao Ji's dynasty, the Fa-changers were gaining momentum, and Prime Minister Cai Jing hated Sima Guang's gang to death, but at this time, everyone was dead, and there was no way to belittle and distribute it. So in order to completely remove the residual poison, Lao Cai Jing ordered all states and counties to engrave the monument of the Yuanyou Party in order to the emperor, declaring that these people belonged to the traitorous party, and they should be strangled in stone, so that they would stink for thousands of generations.

In addition, the two brothers, Su Shi and Su Che, actually agreed with some of the contents of Wang Anshi's reform (such as the Exemption Law), and also put forward targeted improvement suggestions for some of the more radical changes, and subjectively supported the change. It's just that these two brothers were careless in making friends, and the position of their butts determined their heads, so they just wanted to list them in the restoration, so the brothers had no choice but to be Yuanyou members.

As a result, Su Shi and Su Che were degraded and degraded, Su Shi was sent to Danzhou on Hainan Island, which is equivalent to the ends of the earth, but fortunately, now he has become Huang Jie's grandfather and grandfather, and Huang Jie is very capable, he has to give him a name, and now in their name to sell dog meat, if Huang Jie's new method can really become successful, I am afraid that the second elder should also smile Jiuquan!

As for Huang Tingjian, he privately praised Wang Anshi as "a great man", and his nephew Huang Cishan wrote a preface to "Linchuan Collection", and also mentioned that Huang Tingjian called Wang Anshi immortal (Tokyo's son is beautiful, and Lu Zhi is called immortal). But when the Yuan You Dynasty was repairing the history of the country, Huang Tingjian was on the side of the old party, and he had an argument with Lu Dian(Lu You's grandfather) about slandering history and books, so this person was also the same as the Su family brothers.

Besides, by adhering to the line of will, the road has been straightened through in legal theory, so what is the reaction of the people?

At present, Shandong and Shaanxi have different reactions because of their different situations.

First of all, because Shaanxi is still under military control, and because the middle of the seed division sits in the northwest and puts on a posture of rejecting Tibet on the left and welcoming Western Xia on the right, it is tight on the outside and loose on the inside in the area of civil affairs. And there is basically no agriculture in the northwest, after all, the land is not good for planting, and the second is that it may not be harvested if it is planted, and it is better to throw away the long grass and use it to graze horses, so the development of animal husbandry for the Liaodong immigrants brought by Huang Jie is progressing rapidly.

As for the Shandong region, for the people at the bottom, the new law can pay less taxes and labor less no matter how it is calculated, which is of course a good thing, but for some large households who are accustomed to tax evasion and tax evasion, although they are still somewhat unhappy, they are not only worried about the repetition of policies, but also afraid that the government will not believe in what it says or that the order will be changed overnight, and they have some complaints, but they also know that their arms cannot twist their thighs, and they are mostly in a wait-and-see state.

In this regard, Huang Jie is not unprepared, and the solution he came up with is to make profits! Big concessions!

Directly increase the share income of the nearly 12 members belonging to Shandong in the Jinyu Society, ranging from 30 to 50 percent, and then ask them to divide their respective jurisdictions in the whole of Shandong, and then try to absorb the landlords and wealthy households in the jurisdiction as downlines and partners, take the initiative to provide technology and funds to help and transform them, and try to free their group of people from the shackles of land and agriculture, and get rich first.

Think about it, if a landlord can use his business skills and capital to operate an industrial project that can earn higher returns, at this time he will be so stupid that he will cling to agricultural projects with low returns?

At the beginning of the Northern Song Dynasty, Chen Yaosuo, a former member of the Ministry of Industry, wrote that "Han, Wei, Jin and Tang Dynasties, Yu Chen Xu Deng Ying and Cai Subo, as for Shouchun, use water conservancy to reclaim the field, Chen Jigu is in", and suggested "opening the tuntian", "the mu harvest is about three Hu, between the seven states, you can get three million Hu" ("Song History, Food and Goods").

When he arrived at Shenzong Xining, Wang Shao said: "Weiyuan City went down, to Qinzhou, Chengji, five or six hundred miles beside the river, those who do not cultivate fertile land, do not worry about ten thousand hectares, and can get 300,000 Hu when they are thousands of years old" ("History of the Song Dynasty: Food and Goods").

From what the two said, it can be found that the grain yield per mu in the Northern Song Dynasty was about three catties per mu, that is, the level of three stones per mu, and these three stones were harvested from grains that had not been hulled (millet, millet, beans, wheat, sorghum, etc.) rather than refined grains, which was equivalent to about 350 catties in later generations (one stone in the Song Dynasty was about 92.5 Song catties, 640 grams per catty).

If it is rice, the yield is even lower, such as Fan Zhongyan of Song Renzong said in the recital "Answering the Edict of Chen Shishi": "The minister knows that in Suzhou, the tax collector is 34,000 hectares, and the benefit of Zhongni is 2 to 3 stones of rice per mu." ”

In addition, Zhu Xi said in the "Statement of Matters to Rescue the Famine" that the six counties of Shaoxing Prefecture on Zhedong Road during the Chunxi period "produced two stones of rice per mu", which shows that even in the late Northern Song Dynasty, the grain yield per mu in China was still very low, and if it was not for the purpose of filling the stomach during this period, agricultural production was basically inefficient input and inefficient output, and it had no value at all.

However, don't forget Huang Jie's black technology "integrated breeding technology of water and land", since he took it out to do things, it has long been blooming everywhere in the Great Song Dynasty, but because the members of the Golden Jade Club regard this technology as a forbidden one, and they strictly guard against it and do not spread it to the outside world, so it has not been popularized on a large scale.

In this way, the time, place, people, internal factors, external needs and generous benefits of this "change" will also be complete!
