Behead one level, award ten acres of grain field, or choose to be promoted to one level, ten acres of grain field, can be exchanged for fifty acres of grassland. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is the reward rule drawn up by Tang Yi, and he called Ma Fang over to ask for his opinion.

"Brother Ma, do you think the brothers can be satisfied?"

Ma Fang grabbed his beard, thought for a long time, and nodded vigorously.

"Dashuai, yes, I look good!" Ma Fang said with a smile: "In the past, the imperial court beheaded a northern captive, and it could be exchanged for fifty taels of silver, but after layers of deductions, in the hands of the brothers, at most twenty taels, although the land price in the north is not as good as in the south, but it also costs five or six taels of silver for an acre of land, and there is no market, ten acres of land can catch up with three times the previous reward, which is very rich, but it is ......."

Ma Fang wanted to speak and stopped, Tang Yi smiled and encouraged: "Don't frown at the battlefield conquest, if you have any worries, just say it." ”

"Well, the last general will say it." Ma Fang asked tentatively: "If you guess correctly, these fields are all over the Hetao, right?" ”

"That's right, I can't get hundreds of thousands of acres of land in the customs to reward the big guys." Tang Yi said calmly.

Ma Fang's brows were tightly locked, obviously without the excitement just now, "The last general has the courage to say, although the imperial court has taken the Hetao now, but the army can't always be stationed in the grassland, in case the army retreats, after a few years, the enemy will come back again, keep attacking and harassing, can't live in peace, can't stand firm, and can't look at the reward!" Unless the imperial court can garrison troops in the grassland, the big guy can feel at ease. ”

If you can see it, if you can eat it, that's the reward.

If the grassland is lost in a few years, and the ripe fields that have just been reclaimed and are suitable for cultivation are handed over to others, who can stand it.

"This time, the imperial court will definitely not be anticlimactic, and it must stand in the grassland!" Tang Yi solemnly assured, but then he smiled bitterly: "Brother Ma, the imperial court is financially embarrassed, and it will definitely not be able to garrison a large number of troops in the short term, but the brothers' family business cannot be ignored. ”

Tang Yi pondered for a moment and asked: "Do you look at this success, all the families who cultivate in the Hetao can get the fire guns at cost price, and they can even hire some people to protect their family business, build fortresses and walls on the grassland, and when they encounter a small group of enemies, they can rely on their own strength to deal with them." ”

In the vast grassland, it is useless to arrange how many people and horses. Tang Yi dug out his mind and looked for a suitable way. He remembered that in the face of the vast and barren region, various countries used the means of armed immigration, such as the development of Siberia by Tsarist Russia and the westward expansion of the United States. They all took advantage of people's greed for land to provide them with weapons and materials, and the brave pioneers vigorously explored, constantly planting flags and grabbing land, and expanding their power.

Daming can completely follow suit, this time the people who got the land are all proud soldiers, and they are very capable of fighting, give them a gun, how much movement can be tossed, I really can't say. A few decades later, perhaps these pioneers crossed the Ural Mountains and ran to Europe.

Such a vast Siberia, such rich resources, if it falls into the hands of Tsarist Russia, Tang Yi promised to regret his death, just took advantage of this opportunity, began to encourage immigrants, go north and west, circle as much land as he can, and take Siberia home first!

Ma Fang obviously didn't think as much as Tang Yi, he paid more attention to the matter itself.

"My lord, buying firearms, hiring workers, and building a castle is not a small amount, not to mention the big soldiers, even ordinary officials can't get any money." Ma Fang spread his hands, at least he was a poor ghost.

"Hahaha, this old brother doesn't have to worry, Jin Shang will naturally find a way for you!"

"They don't see rabbits and eagles, can they help for nothing?" Ma Fang didn't believe it at all.

"Of course it's not for nothing, it's for mutual benefit!" Tang Yi smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry, they must be more thoughtful than I thought." ”

The business opportunities for wool spinning are so great that the profits are dizzying.

Just relying on a piece of paper, counting on the Mongol princes to be at the mercy, even if they know that they have been fooled, they are still willing, watching the Jin merchants take away the huge profits, isn't that a dream?

If you don't have enough strength, how can you carry the silver in your arms?

He had already calculated that if he wanted to defend the grassland, he had to cooperate with the army to provide Tang Yi with a lot of land and reward meritorious soldiers, which was exactly wishful thinking.

Don't look at Tang Yi's propaganda everywhere that he is taking revenge and hate, in order to get Jiajing back face, in fact, the core is a colonial expansion carried out by merchants and the army, nothing more.

Close cooperation between the two sides is an inevitable choice. The Jin merchants provided capital and land, and the military provided security and labor, and they were perfectly matched and intimate.

Tang Yi calculated an account for Ma Fang, if a soldier beheaded the tenth level, he would be able to obtain a hundred acres of land, or five hundred acres of grassland.

According to Tang Yi's assumption, it was best for him to choose 40 acres of land and 300 acres of grassland.

Forty acres of land produces enough grain to feed fifty people every year, and if he has five people in his family and hires ten helpers, he can produce more food for thirty-five people every year.

This grain will not be wasted and can be used as concentrate feed for sheep raising.

Zhang Yunxia's abacus is that one acre of land can raise a hundred sheep, in fact, he takes it for granted. One acre of land is enough to raise 100 sheep, and there can be a large field of activity, but it cannot provide enough grass and fodder, that is, it is necessary to buy supplements from outside to maintain the normal consumption of 100 sheep.

Obviously, Tang Yi has two lifetimes of experience, and he is much more practical than Zhang Yunxia.

One acre of grassland, if planted with good pasture, can produce 350,000 catties a year, a sheep needs 5,000 catties of pasture a year, and about one acre of land can only raise ten sheep, which is ten times less than Zhang Yunxia's estimate. However, the profits are still very impressive.

300 acres of pasture can raise 3,000 sheep, as long as it is properly managed, in a year, each sheep will make a net profit of one tael of silver, which is 3,000 taels. A university scholar is less than 200 taels a year, which is worth fifteen university scholars.

Tang Yi said with a smile: "With this income as a foundation, Jin Merchants also need the protection of the big guys, and it is very easy to borrow from them at low interest." Whether it's buying weapons or building castles, they can't wait for it! Brother Ma, do the math, is it this account? ”

Ma Fang's brain was obviously not as flexible as Tang Yi's, and after thinking and meditating for a long time, he suddenly jumped up, scratched his ears and cheeks, and looked very annoyed, lamenting, sighing, and spitting bitterness.

"My lord, there are not 1,000 Tartars who will be killed at the end of these years, but 800, killing ten people, you can make 3,000 taels of silver a year, I am 80 times his time, how much is this year?"

Why didn't he meet a commander like Tang Yi earlier, Ma Fang didn't want to hate it, he couldn't wait to be twenty years younger and fight with Tang Yi for a few more years, how fucking much oil and water he had!

Think about the other governors and marshals, compared to Tang Yi, it is really heaven and earth, if you want to say that the big guy, Tang Yi really didn't say it, second to none!

The border army is bitter, in the past, they pointed to the little money of the imperial court, but they were pitiful, and they couldn't even fill their stomachs. When I got home, my wife and children were hungry.

A six-foot man, who doesn't want to be embarrassed?

is so miserable, where did you get the courage to work for the court!

This time is different, the real reward is down, and being a soldier is not only not ashamed, but also very glorious, and it is simply a shortcut to make a fortune.

Ma Fang dared to say that after the First World War, the Ming Dynasty guaranteed that there would be a wave of enlistment. Needless to say, if you can kill three or five Tartars, mix one or two hundred acres of pasture, and if you manage it well, you will also have a few hundred taels of silver in your account a year, which is worthy of a middle-class landlord.

With such a good business, anyone with a little courage will break the head.

Three generations of rich peasants can support a scholar, the north is bitter cold, not as prosperous as the southeast literary style, even if it is a reading exam, not many people can really pass the road of the imperial examination, and the cruelty is far more than ten million times that of the college entrance examination in later generations!

Children of poor families, if you want to get ahead, it is more difficult than climbing to the sky, this time it's good, you don't have to squeeze the single-plank bridge of the imperial examination, you can join the army to fight, make meritorious deeds, exchange for land and property, and embark on the road to prosperity from then on.

In this battle, for example, almost 50,000 captured enemies were killed, and not many were beheaded more than ten, and the most common ones were two or three or three or five grades.

On average, after the First World War, almost 20,000 people were able to get their hands on land and pastures, and they jumped out of poverty and became well-off.

How many people can pass the test at one time?

Take the second year of Longqing as an example, Tang Yi tried his best to agitate, and in the end, he only admitted more than 500 people, a difference of 40 times!

Obviously, the conferral of titles on military merit is greater and more extensive than the social mobility brought about by the imperial examination.

Tang Yi often pondered why he had changed the law in the past dynasties, but only Shang Ying succeeded, and it was not until today that he completely woke up.

How many nobles are there in the court, how many civil officials, and how many royal relatives are there?

The Qin State was founded on farming and warfare, and every time it was fought, a large group of upstarts would emerge, and their number was a hundred times that of the traditional noble civil officials.

With the support of this emerging force, even if Shang Ying killed himself, those noble clans who regained power did not have the courage to abolish the change.

As for the reforms of other people, they have not yet supported new forces, so they have rushed to offend the old forces with a light, and it is unreasonable not to end miserably.

People have always had a problem, always focusing on the elimination of cheats, Bao Zheng, Hai Rui and other Qingtian masters, can always get the most cheers. But how many people's lives did they really change? Obviously not, if you want to prosper, the key is to prosper, but also to prosper!

It's all through, it's all through!

A confident smile welled up on Tang Yi's face, a heartfelt smile.

"Shang Ying, I have seen through the secret of your success, you only had the six kingdoms of Shandong to conquer at that time, while I have a vast world and endless oceans, waiting to be conquered."

Tang Yi opened his arms, confident and proud, wait, my achievements will definitely surpass the predecessors of the past generations, so that the place where the sun and the moon shine is the world of the dragon flag!

After a long fart, Tang Yi was about to go to Zhang Yunxia to see how many princes he had pitted, but before he could leave, someone ran in.

"Elder Qiyuge, General Ma Dongma is back, and he said that there is news of my answer!" (To be continued.) )
