Chapter 8 Stir up the people

"You're right, but you're not entirely right." Wang Jundao smiled slightly, and said: "I want to distribute most of the land of the Kang family to the people of Kangzhuang according to the population, and do not charge them a penny of rent, how much food the people can grow, it is theirs, if I want food, I will spend money to buy it from them." ”

"Of course, the ownership of the land is still mine, because I want to prohibit the private sale of land, to prevent land annexation, and one day, if I can establish a state, I will turn this land into state land, and then there will be no more land annexation."

"As for the remaining small amount of land, I will keep it for the first time, and I will build a factory on it to make and process various products, even if I can't process high-tech products, I can also process agricultural products, make agricultural products into packaged food, and sell them at a price far higher than selling grain."

"When the time comes, the common people will grow grain and sell it to me, and then they can work in my factory and get paid, then they will get more income, they will have food to eat, and they will have money to use, if I open some more schools, implement free compulsory education, teach their children to read and write, and learn all kinds of knowledge, they will have hope, and they will have hope for life, and they will live and work in peace and contentment, who will not support me?"

Cui Jingluo and Bai Yuncheng were dumbfounded when they heard this, and if they continued to do what Wang Jundao said, it would be simply wonderful, Cui Jingluo was shocked to find that the so-called statecraft that he had known before was simply useless, Wang Jundao's words almost opened a real channel for him, and he only felt that the Lingtai was clear for a while.

Wang Jundao has pointed out the future development path for Cui Jingluo and Bai Yuncheng, and the two of them are eager to let go of their hands and feet and work hard to see how rich the whole world can be. And Wang Jundao said it simply and plainly, layer by layer, it didn't make them feel that it couldn't be realized, they had a feeling that as long as they followed Wang Jundao, as long as they followed his strategic pace, they would definitely succeed and build a prosperous and rich country.

"Oh, I forgot to say a little bit, and the most important one!" Wang Jundao said suddenly.

"What?" Cui Jingluo and Bai Yuncheng subconsciously asked in unison.

"It's not enough to be rich, you have to be strong! While developing agriculture and commerce, we must also strive to develop industry, introduce advanced technology from the West, produce strong ships, sharp guns, rifles and machine guns, and at the same time train our people to restore the martial style of our ancestors, the Han and Tang dynasties! Wang Jundao said.

"So how do you do that?" Cui Jingluo asked.

"It's simple." Wang Jundao said: "When we distribute the land to the people, we tell them that although they get the land, others are likely to send troops to rob it, especially the Qing political axe and foreigners, so that this kind of thinking is completely rooted in the hearts of the people, and then we focus on protecting our own land, draw out some of them, set up a self-defense militia group, give them a certain military salary, and send people to conduct strict military training for them every day, especially to train them in martial arts, so that they can completely restore the blood and physique that our ancestors should have!" As for the rest of those who have not joined the militia group, we will also issue them swords and guns and train them, of course, this kind of training should not delay the farming work when the peasants are slack, so that it will not be long before all the people can be soldiers, the militia is the army, and the rest of the people are reserve soldiers, and they can be converted into regular armies at any time. ”

"Good!" Cui Jingluo and Bai Yuncheng couldn't help but praise in unison, this method is simply wonderful, there is no need to force the people to be soldiers, the people will voluntarily join it, and once the militia practices martial arts, then they will pass on what they have learned to their relatives and friends, and to their children and grandchildren, so it won't be long before the whole people can restore the martial style, and the future generations will become stronger and stronger, and it will not be like today, most people are skinny and weak.

"Captain, Platoon Leader Xu has summoned the villagers of Kangzhuang, a total of more than 200 people." Just when Wang Jundao, Cui Jingluo, and Bai Yuncheng wanted to continue the discussion, Li Jinglin's voice was remembered above the secret room.

"Okay, we're going to come out." Wang Jun answered, took the Zhan Lu sword in the corner, and walked out with Cui Jingluo and Bai Yuncheng.

When the three of them walked to the gate of the Kang family's compound, they saw more than a hundred ordinary people standing in the cold wind, all of them with anxious expressions on their faces.

Kang Jian had already been tied to a large wooden stake in front of the door, like a dead dog, his eyes were already full of despair, and Kangwei's body was thrown aside.

Wang Jundao walked onto a simple high platform that was set up casually, slowly looked at the people under the stage, and after half a ring, he pointed to the father and son of the Kang family, and said loudly: "Folks, who are these two people, I think everyone is familiar with them, right?" ”

A sentence of the villagers suddenly made the more than 100 people in the audience feel a little less apprehensive, of course they knew who those two people were, and most of the people looked at Wang Jundao's eyes began to turn from apprehension to doubt.

Wang Jundao continued: "That's right, they are the Kang family's father and son, Kang Jian and Kangwei, who are rampant in the countryside and oppress you, Kangwei has been killed by me, and Kang Jian will also be killed by me." ”

The audience suddenly became in an uproar, although the big guys just now already knew that one of the Kang family's father and son had been tied up and the other was killed, but at this time, when they heard Wang Jundao say it, they couldn't help but be shocked.

"Maybe the villagers are very surprised, why do I dare to kill Kang Jian and Kangwei father and son, I want to tell you, this is nothing surprising, just because the Kang family father and son should be killed, Kangzhuang 1,000 acres of land, their father and son forcibly occupied 800 acres, they distributed the land to the villagers to cultivate, they never worked, but they had to collect eighty percent of the grain, the villagers worked hard for a year, tired and tired, but they could only collect two percent, which is simply intolerable." Wang Jundao couldn't help but yell.

The people in the audience began to get excited, obviously, Wang Jundao's words reached their hearts.

"In peacetime, their father and son bully others, bullying men and women, they deserve to be punished by heaven, struck by lightning, and electrocuted, they have today, and they deserve it." Wang Jundao then shouted loudly.

"Yes, the sin deserves it." Suddenly, a young voice in the crowd rang out with some excitement, followed by several more shouts.

Wang Jundao nodded secretly, but continued quietly and loudly: "Folks, think about it, have their father and son bullied you in peacetime?" Did you take advantage of you? Did you beat or scold you? Have you ever bullied your wives and children? In peacetime, their father and son relied on themselves as the first captain, and they had the protection of the chief above, and it was right that you did not oppose them or kill them. ”

"But today, with me here, I will be the master for everyone, whether it is the other chiefs here, or Wang Baochang is here, or the township chief of the Zhonggong is here, I still have to kill them, because I am not afraid of them, I just want to learn from the heroes of Shuibo Liangshan, eliminate violence and peace, and do the right thing for heaven!"

"Eliminate violence and peace, and do the right thing for heaven!" The voice of the young man who had spoken first screamed again, this time with a loud shout.

"Eliminate violence and peace, and do the right thing for heaven!" Immediately afterward, several more young people with blood surnames roared.

"Eliminate violence and peace, and do the right thing for heaven!" Dozens of villagers then roared.

"Folks, you say, should their father and son be killed?" Wang Jundao roared again.

"Damn it!"

"Damn it!"

"Damn it!"

……

As the young man's voice sounded just now, after a while, all the people roared, and the sound pierced into the sky, almost shaking the entire Kangzhuang.

In such a situation, Wang Jundao knew that the time was ripe, and suddenly pulled out the Zhan Lu sword, and with a single sword, Kang Jian's head was slashed into the sky, and blood shot out violently. This scene caused all the villagers to exclaim, fortunately, these people are over fifteen years old, so they are not afraid, if there are children, I am afraid that they will be scared and cry now.

"Well killed!" It was the young man who spoke first, and then more than a hundred people shouted out one after another, and their voices became louder and louder.

Seeing this situation, Wang Jundao knew that today's matter was half of the success, and when the audience quieted down, he said loudly: "Folks, from now on, there will be no more oppressive Kang family fathers and sons in this world, the land occupied by the Kang family, I will rent it to you according to two acres per person, if your family has three people, then you will get six acres of land, if your family has four people, you will get eight acres of land, I swear to heaven here, I will not charge a penny of rent from the villagers, the grain you grow, I will not take any of them by force, if I want food, I will buy it for you at the market price, if you violate this oath, let me be thundered with five thunders, and the heavens and the earth will be destroyed! ”

The voice fell, more than 200 villagers first whispered, and then cheered, the voice has a tendency to drown the world, this era, the common people are very superstitious, all believe in heaven and earth, who dares to swear to the sky, then in their eyes that is the real truth, Wang Jundao dare to stand on the stage and swear, that means that they can cultivate the land from now on, but no longer have to pay a penny of rent, the more their income, the more food they will get.

"But there's one thing I want to tell the folks." Wang Jundao paused, and then said: "Although you have a share of the land, from now on, you can farm as you like, you can harvest as much as you plow, you can harvest well if you plough well, and you can live a good life, but some people don't want you to live such a good life, do you know who?" ”

"Chief Wang!" The young man from before spoke loudly again.

"Well said!" Wang Jundao glanced at him appreciatively, and then said: "However, I also want to tell you that not only Wang Baochang, but also the township chief, as well as those soldiers and ruffians in the county town who came to grab grain and money, they will not let you live a good life." ”

"So what are we going to do?" The young man asked aloud. All the villagers also looked at Wang Jundao in unison, expecting Wang Jundao's answer.

"They don't let us live a good life, they want to rob us of our food, rob us of our money, we beat them, beat them so that they don't even recognize their mothers when they go home, the chief of the security is coming, we are beating the chief of the township, we are beating the head of the township, the soldiers of the county are coming, we are fighting the ruffians!" Wang Jundao yelled.

"yes, fuck it." More than a hundred old men of Kangzhuang shouted in an instant. The land of Shandong, since ancient times, has always been the people's fierce customs, never afraid of struggle, never afraid of resistance, from ancient times to the present, in ancient times, there is one of the ancestors of the Chinese nation, known as the god of war, there is Qilu in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it is not only a state of etiquette, but also a powerful country, during the Three Kingdoms period, there are Qingzhou soldiers of Cao Ying, at the end of the Sui Dynasty, there was a peasant uprising in Shandong, at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, there was the Liangshan uprising...... Shandong people have never been afraid of powerful enemies!

"Therefore, I will form a militia group, as long as you meet the regulations of the militia group, you can join the militia group, I will issue you weapons, I will also issue you military salaries, teach you to practice martial arts, the purpose is very simple, that is, you will use weapons to protect your hard-won land, protect your own homeland, and defeat those who come to grab food and money, do you dare?" Wang Jundao yelled again.

"Dare!" "Dare!" "Dare!"

More than a hundred Kang Zhuang men roared again, and Wang Jundao asked again, "Which of you wants to join the militia?" Please raise your hand. ”

"I do!" The young man who spoke first was the first to raise his hand.

"I do!"

"I do!"

"I do, too!"

……

After a while, more than a hundred people raised their hands.

"Good!" Wang Jundao roared and said, "Villagers, go home and prepare well, from tomorrow, I will distribute land to everyone, and then start to form a militia group." ”
