As for the extra points in the exam, this made Huang Daozhou quite depressed, and he was depressed to the extreme: "Your Majesty, let the old minister come to Taiwan to educate the people, in the end, he still has the intention of reform!" ”

Since the emperor said that he wanted to give extra points to Taiwan's scholars, that is to say, education reform should be carried out in Taiwan, at least the examination reform. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

According to Zhu Changyuan's instructions, Hong Chengchou took out 8,000 taels of silver from his treasury to buy 8,000 mu of land from the Liu family, and then distributed the land equally to the peasants who were originally cultivating in the village according to the capita.

Each of those peasants was given more than 100 acres of land.

Landlord Liu was more miserable, although the family property was preserved, and the land was sold for 8,000 taels of silver, but he was faced with another huge problem: relocation.

There is no way, the government has already personally given him the following information, so that their family must move to Tainan City within a month. It's a mandatory provision, and there's no human touch.

There is no demolition money, no resettlement fees, no road expenses!

Even the people of the old Liu family wanted to live in Tainan City, and paid a lot of silver to buy land and build a house.

Confucius has a good saying: The one who started the culprit has no aftermath!

The first person to eat the crab reaped the benefits, and the news spread like wings, and countless poor people swelled up in the hearts of uncontrollable*.

Many people waited eagerly for the arrival of the officers and soldiers, and then they could feast on the division of the land between the rich and the landlords.

Of course, with their power, it is impossible to fight the local landlord power without the guidance of the government.

So, Huang Daozhou divided his men into more than a dozen waves, went to different places, and led different poor people to fight landlords and local tyrants.

Bloodshed is frequent. All the landlords or kulaks who dared to resist against the government were killed. In fact, sometimes the officers and soldiers and the government do not want to kill, but the morale of the masses under their hands is high, like cotton wool soaked in oil. All it takes is a little spark to start a raging fire.

As a result, the landlords who dared to pull the hind legs of history. All were drowned out in the fury of the peasant army.

Three days later, the struggle continued, but the number of people who resisted was significantly reduced.

At this time, I don't know where to start, a rumor spread, saying that the government has limited silver, and there is too much land in Taiwan, and one or two pieces of silver and one acre of land must be a high price, and the price of land will be lower and lower in the future.

There are also those who say, "What is low, what is low." Now there is still money to be taken for the sale of the land, and wait, when the land is sold out, the government treasury is empty, and you have to hand over the land honestly and obediently without the silver. ”

Many landlords began to panic, and many even came to the door to sell land to Hong Chengchou.

In less than ten days, the land in a county was completely settled, and all the landlords began to move from their original places, while there were many unemployed homeless people in a county, and their lives could not be sustained. Now they have all been allocated land. There is not a single idler in the entire county.

Hong Chengchou sighed and said to the great hero Huang Daozhou: "Thanks to you, Youxuan! ”

Huang Daozhou smiled, and he didn't have the appearance of a Confucian at all. said: "This old man doesn't dare to take credit, I just follow His Majesty's method and mobilize the power of the people to solve this matter." ”

"Yes, who would have thought that Your Majesty's report, every word and every sentence has a big effect, I thought that this mobilization of the people was an empty word, but I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, it was this sentence that made the land innovation of the entire Taiwan government look good!"

"It's Taiwan Province!" After Huang Daozhou corrected it, he said to Hong Chengchou with some worry: "Have you heard those rumors outside?" ”

Hong Chengchou asked, "What rumors?" ”

"What more rumors. Of course, if you don't have any money in your hand, you won't be able to buy land in the future! I thought this was a deliberate effort to spread out the enemy! Huang Daozhou said nonchalantly.

Hong Chengchou's face was bitter. frowned and said in a crying voice: "Where are the rumors, it is the truth. The money in the treasury is empty. ”

"Ahh Huang Daozhou was taken aback and said, "How is that good?" ”

Hong Chengchou said: "I don't know yet! According to the old man's estimate, there are about 8 million to 10 million mu of arable land in the entire Taiwan region. ”

"Huh!" Zodiac Zhou decisively closed his mouth and did not speak!

Confucian people are like this, if they have the ability, they will come out to work, and if they are not, they will shut their mouths and not speak.

Hong Chengchou pondered for a while and said, "This is not a small amount, this official can't raise it anyway, so I'd better ask Your Majesty for help." ”

When he called Zhu Changyuan, he didn't ask for help, so he scolded and begged for help.

"Ask me for money, no! Hong Chengchou, even if I have so much money, I can't give it to you, how many Taiwan provinces in the whole world, I have already given you a million taels, and you can figure out the rest yourself! ”

These are Zhu Changyuan's original words.

Hong Chengchou wanted to theorize and said, "But Your Majesty, that one or two pieces of silver and one acre of land... ”

He really wanted to say that the idea of one or two pieces of silver and one acre of land came from your old man, and now that the situation is wrong, your old man will leave it alone, isn't it a little immoral.

However, before he could say it, he was blocked by Zhu Changyuan.

"Lord Hong, is there something wrong with your brain, you are counting on me to help you when you encounter something, what are I doing with you officials? You've read so many books that you don't know there's such a thing as an IOU? If you don't have any money, you owe it first! ”

"Smack!" The phone hangs up.

Hong Chengchou understood that Zhu Changyuan was asking him to make an IOU.

All right! Then make a white strip.

Land renewal plans are under way in the remaining five counties at the same time.

This time, with previous experience, Hong Chengchou used the facts of iron and blood to tell them that they would die if they resisted. On the other hand, with IOUs stamped with government prints, they began to collect land from landlords and powerful people in various places.

Hong Chengchou also understands the principle of slapping a jujube, in order to appease the anger of the people of Baitiao, he specially promised that all landlords with Baitiao can get a homestead distributed by the government for free as long as they go to Tainan City, and they don't need to spend money to buy it.

In this way, the agrarian reform movement began to proceed slowly but smoothly.

Taiwan's land reform is in full swing.

In the court, Zhu Changyuan began to fire the first shot to eliminate dissidents!

At the beginning of April of the first year of Taizheng, Wang Wu, the governor of the Supervision Yuan, submitted a report to the Criminal Department.

The report described in detail the case of dozens of Xue Guoguan's sons and nephews in Hancheng, Shaanxi Province, who jointly occupied state-owned assets and embezzled state-owned property.

At the same time, when the Supervision Yuan wanted the Criminal Department to submit a report, it demanded that the Criminal Department come up with a disposition opinion and reply within two days in the name of the Supervision Yuan unit.

The Criminal Department did not dare to conceal the slightest secret, so it submitted the report to the cabinet as soon as possible, and at the same time began to send people to take over and investigate the case of Hancheng's embezzlement of state funds.

The so-called embezzlement of state public property is a crime drawn up by Zhu Changyuan.

And Hancheng Xue Guoguan's nephew embezzled the country's public property in fact: after Li Zicheng went to Xiangyang to participate in the princes' alliance on the order of Zhu Changyuan, he led his troops all the way to the west according to his requirements, and the troops were directed at Gushi Khan and Yarkand Khanate, starting the first step of foreign conquest.

However, Li Zicheng is gone, but he also leaves behind a large number of real estate that cannot be taken away.

For example, the palace he built in Shaanxi, such as his real estate.

These things should logically be state-owned, but Han Cheng Xue Guoguan's nephew doesn't know if he relied on the support of a head of the cabinet to start the idea of this public fund.

Moreover, in collusion with the local government, he even successfully embezzled the entire Li Zicheng Palace!

The report provided by the Supervision Yuan was reasonable, and even took the title deed of Li Zicheng's palace in his hand, and the name on it was the Xue family.

After Xue Guo saw this report, his face turned slightly pale, and he hurriedly ran to the palace to excuse Zhu Changyuan.

Zhu Changyuan directly didn't let him enter the Qianqing Palace, only let him kneel outside the palace, and then Cao Huachun came over and said: "Self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country, and leveling the world!" The Qing family is not yet together, how to govern the country and level the world? I save your face, you can be a leader! ”

This can be regarded as an emperor's message!

Xue Guoguan smiled bitterly, kowtowed in thanksgiving, and then bowed and withdrew from the palace.

He knew that this was already the best ending.

The evidence is complete, even if it is not him, he must avoid suspicion and retreat, otherwise where will he have the face to gain a foothold in the court. Zhu Changyuan said that if he saved face, he would naturally not be investigated at a deep level.

Early in the morning, the morning dew is not dawning!

The warm sunlight poured down from the sky, plating the entire Jingshi with a layer of gold, Xue Guoguan got into the carriage with the assistance of the old servant, and then a whip sounded, crisp and pleasant.

But this whip sounded extremely unpleasant in Xue Guoguan's ears.

This means that the Jingshi who has fought all his life will say goodbye forever. And when he returned to his hometown, none of his usual colleagues sent him off.

There is no greater sorrow in the world than this!

"Let's go!"

After Xue Guoguan finished speaking, the squeaky car began to run slowly, and the way home began.

Jingshi is not too far from Hancheng, and Xue Guoguan is not walking fast, only bringing a few servants with him, but there are many carriages behind the car to transport things, and there are more than a dozen vehicles transporting gold and silver alone.

The car went out of the West City Gate, and after less than half a day's journey, there was a sudden sound of rapid horse running behind it.

Xue Guoguan didn't open the curtain of the carriage, and said to the little lady beside him with a smile: "This must be the one who sees me off!" ”

When the sound of the horse's hooves reached the side of the carriage, Xue Guoguan lifted the curtain and prepared a look of thanks to see who it was!

But the moment the curtain was opened, his face froze slightly!

The people outside are Wang Wu! Wang Wu of the Supervision Yuan! Zhu Changyuan's apprentice!

"Lord Xue!" Wang Wu took out a pot of wine, put it in front of Xue Guoguan, and said: "Concubine Chen is grateful for the kindness of the adults back then, and now that the adults have returned to their hometowns, I hereby give a pot of wine to repay the day!" (To be continued.) )
