If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, when Wu Shaogang decided to comprehensively clean up the officials and public officials of Fuzhou County, to which Tongchuan Fu Road belongs, he thought of the serious problem of land annexation. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The land of the Great Song Dynasty belonged to individuals, and the situation of land annexation in the late Southern Song Dynasty was also very serious, the powerful and wealthy occupied most of the land, and the land owned by ordinary people was pitiful, but the taxes of the Great Song Dynasty were mainly commercial and trade taxes, and the proportion of agricultural taxes was not the largest, so the imperial court did not attach so much importance to the matter of land annexation.

However, after Jia Rudao served as the right prime minister, privy envoy, and grasped the actual power, he began to attach great importance to the matter of land annexation, after all, the trade tax can not fully support the expenses of the imperial court, the imperial court and the Houjin and the Mongolian Tatars have been conquest for many years, and the expenses are huge, so that the imperial court feels that it is beyond its means, in order to be able to cope with the increasingly huge expenses, Jia Rudao began to focus on the land, and in the second year of Jingding, 1261 A.D. implemented the public land law.

The so-called public land law is to clarify the amount of food that each household needs each year according to the output of human land, and after accounting, according to the output of the land, it is clear how much land each household owns, and the excess land is purchased by the imperial court into public land, and then the government at all levels leases out these public land, and the income obtained from the land is all used for the imperial court expenses and military expenses.

The public land law implemented by Jia Rudao met with strong opposition from the elite.

At this time, the land was concentrated in the hands of large landowners, who were also powerful officials in the court, and the Gongtian Law touched their basic interests, and of course met with strong opposition.

However, Jia Yidao spared no effort in the implementation of the public land law, and was not afraid of any opposition, and forcibly pushed forward.

It's a pity that Jia Yidao can only interfere in the places around the capital, and the rest of the places are beyond the reach of the whip.

Including the Tongchuanfu Road before the war, the advancement of the Gongtian Law was unsatisfactory.

Jia Yidao probably also knew the difficulty, and did not take more drastic measures to advance.

Wu Shaogang left the capital to go to Tongchuan Mansion when he took office, he knew about the Gongtian Law, and had conducted serious research, he felt that the Gongtian Law had merits, for the Southern Song Dynasty that was already in the storm, the Gongtian Law was a good way to save the imperial court, but the Gongtian Law could not be implemented for a long time, and there were too many drawbacks.

After taking office, Wu Shaogang vigorously promoted the public land law, anyway, most of the magnates in Tongchuan Fu Road were assimilated or killed by Liu Quan, basically their families were ruined, and after recovering the entire Fuzhou County to which Tongchuan Fu Road belonged, the government at all levels carefully verified the land, and distributed it roughly evenly to cultivate according to the calculated number of people, as for these lands, they must belong to the government and are real public land.

Land is the guarantee for the survival of peasant households, and no matter how commerce and trade develop, the vast majority of peasant households still need to rely on land for their livelihood, so Wu Shaogang fully supports Jia Nidao in curbing land annexation.

The Great Song Dynasty was different from other dynasties in that commerce and trade were very developed, and land was relatively not highly valued, and the population movement of the Great Song Dynasty was also very frequent, and some merchants did not attach special importance to land.

As for Jia Rudao's forcible promotion of the public land law, his original intention was not to curb land annexation, but to close the expenses of the imperial court beyond its means.

Wu Shaogang had a different idea, he needed to rely on the public land law to implement a land distribution policy that could be maintained for a long time.

As long as land can be privatized, land annexation will be inevitable, even in a millennium.

The best way to overcome land annexation is to develop commerce and trade on a large scale, so that trade and trade taxes account for the vast majority of the imperial court's tax revenue, and a large number of peasant households can devote themselves to commerce and trade, and rely on commerce and trade to support their families, so that the problem of land annexation can be overcome temporarily.

In reality, this possibility is entirely present.

Wu Shaogang implemented the public land law, but did not encounter too many obstacles, most of the farmland was allocated by the government at all levels, let the people cultivate, those who escaped the catastrophe, because their own handle was caught by Wu Shaogang, did not dare to have too many complaints, fortunately, Wu Shaogang did not rush to exterminate, the land left for the powerful and rich is enough, so basically the best of both worlds, both are peaceful.

In terms of developing commerce and trade, it is very difficult, on the one hand, there are officials and officials in the government to exploit it, on the other hand, it is the Tongchuan Mansion Road that has just encountered great difficulties, all aspects are withered, at this time even if the merchants want to do business, not many people can afford to buy, so the recovery of commerce and trade, must wait until the second half of the year, once the people harvest grain in the fields, get money, it is possible to really start buying goods.

Just when Wu Shaogang felt that everything was going well, something suddenly happened.

If it weren't for Tong Weihua coming to report, Wu Shaogang would still focus his main energy on cleaning up the officials and public servants in Luzhou Mansion, and Wu Shaogang, who got the report, felt cold behind him.

Someone finally came forward, and the offensive methods were very vicious.

However, Wu Shaogang will not fully believe Tong Weihua's statement, he needs to learn the truth of the matter from another way.

Some institutions, Wu Shaogang has long wanted to set up, you must know that before the crossing, he was a special forces instructor, familiar with the things in the army, and even more aware of the importance of intelligence, intelligence is the eyes and ears of a person who is ready to do big things and control everything, which can help you know a lot of things behind the scenes, and can help you establish a strategy to deal with it.

However, the reputation of the intelligence agencies has not always been very good, probably because such agencies do things in the shadows and the methods they use are not so open.

When Yuan Shichun entered the wing, Wu Shaogang was still thinking.

Standing quietly on the side for a while, Yuan Shichun finally held back and didn't ask.

As an officer in charge of personal security matters, Yuan Shichun's performance was still very good, and he was praised and affirmed by Wu Shaogang.

However, Yuan Shichun, who entered the wing room at this moment, had a very uneasy feeling, he noticed that Wu Shaogang was actually paying attention to him, but he never spoke, nor did he make any requests.

Could it be that I didn't do something well.

Sweat droplets gradually appeared on his forehead, and Yuan Shichun didn't know what to do for a while.

Wu Shaogang has been paying attention to Yuan Shichun's performance, and he has already made up his mind to set up his own intelligence agency, as for the person in charge of the intelligence agency, he must be a person he completely trusts and his absolute confidant.

Zhang Binghui and Ma Long are both one of the best candidates, but unfortunately both of them are now shouldering heavy responsibilities, including Wang Shisan, Du Xiaoqi and Zheng Tongwu and others, they are unable to withdraw, Tan Chengxuan is far away at home in Luzhou, and it is impossible to rush to Luzhou Prefecture, as for Qin Han, it is not considered for the time being.

The rest of the candidates, or the best candidates, are Yuan Shichun.

Yuan Shichun and Zheng Tongwu were both sergeants of the Urging Front Army to which the former palace division belonged, and because of strict law enforcement, they prevented the palace front division from commanding Sima Huaxuan to enter the barracks to inspect, and they were appreciated by Wu Shaogang, and they were promoted all the way, and became Wu Shaogang's henchmen.

The duties of the head of the intelligence agency are extremely important, and they require unusual patience and ruthlessness.

Although the decision has been made to make Yuan Shichun the head of the intelligence agency, Wu Shaogang still needs to test Yuan Shichun's mind to see what kind of mentality Yuan Shichun can use to take up this extremely critical position.

Yuan Shichun's performance made Wu Shaogang basically satisfied, but there were also unsatisfactory points.

For example, after being observed and snubbed, Yuan Shichun should look as usual, but it can be seen that Yuan Shichun is nervous, and this kind of mentality is definitely not suitable for those who collect intelligence.

After sighing slightly, Wu Shaogang spoke.

"Yuan Shichun, I thought about it for a long time and decided to put you in charge of the affairs of the intelligence agency."

Yuan Shichun was stunned for a moment, didn't even wipe the sweat drops from his forehead, and then spoke.

"The subordinates are still willing to wait by the side of the adults. . . ."

Wu Shaogang waved his hand and stopped Yuan Shichun from continuing to speak.

"Needless to say, staying by my side is to protect my safety, to be the head of the intelligence agency, but also for my safety, you think about it, I don't know how many people want to secretly calculate, if you stay by my side, will you know this information, and when the other party's calculation succeeds, it will be too late. Some of the attacks are not face-to-face battles, and the calculations in the secret are even more vicious, and I have to figure out the information that is not conducive to me, so that you are the person in charge of the intelligence agency, so that this agency can operate normally, it is the best way to protect my safety. ”

"The intelligence agency is secretly established, you can select a dozen or so people from the guards and scouts, specializing in intelligence gathering matters, these people are under your command, as for how you get the information, how you can grasp all the things that are carried out in secret, that is what you need to think carefully."

"You are directly responsible to me, and you don't need to follow anyone's orders."

"The intelligence agencies need a lot of expenses, and I'll find a way to get you guys fed."

"I hope you can be fully familiar with intelligence work in the shortest possible time, in fact, in the long training, you have already come into contact with some matters of intelligence gathering, and now you are about to do it officially."

Speaking of this, Wu Shaogang took out a letter from his arms.

"You don't know much about reading, you have to study more in the future, what is said in this letter is your first task, be sure to make all the situation clear, you don't have much time, you must give me a complete answer within ten days." (To be continued.) )
