Chapter 269: How is he

Chang'an in September is immersed in the joy of late autumn, experiencing the baptism of last year's cold winter and blizzard, since the beginning of spring, the wind and rain in Guanzhong have been smooth, and the occasional waterlogging flood in the east is not a big trouble, and the grain harvested in early autumn is piled up in the barn. ●⌒

Sowing rye, Nanzhuang villagers can finally spend a stable autumn, since the change to rye, nearly two years through a painful adaptation period, from the initial unfamiliar rye habits to reduce yields, to solve the habit and encounter rye leaf rust, powdery mildew attack, the bureaucrats of the big peasant Lingfu squatted in the field for a whole year, according to the traditional insecticide and disease technology to develop a lot of soil methods before the beginning of the improvement.

"Level 4 does not change Zhang An, forty-one years old, seven feet five inches, black face, household registration carries four people, the water contained in the field registration is two acres and forty acres, the yield per mu is four stones, two buckets and one liter of rye, and two stones and seven liters of soybeans, and the tax has been paid."

The husband stood in front of the shadow wall of the Nanzhuang as a notice board, and read out the westward situation of each Ding household's mu yield and tax in that year, and the poll tax in August every year and represented the end of the tax year, and the Han family also had a tax on the grass according to the calculation of the mu yield, although the tax burden was very light and very small, but the tax was to clearly record and announce the people.

Therefore, at the end of September every year, the people will usher in the tax payment notice of the year after the autumn harvest, and the farmer will tell the villagers in Luli at this time, how much tax the Han court collected, why do you collect so many taxes, why do you abolish certain tax-free privileges, so that every villager knows in their hearts, and if there are questions, they can raise them on the spot, and the husband is not only responsible for collecting taxes, but also responsible for popularizing tax knowledge.

In a sense, the era in which the Han Empire lived was closer to the feudal era of the pre-Qin period, and the biggest feature of the pre-Qin feudal era was that there were Chinese people. The countrymen lived in Luli, paid taxes to the lord, and served the lord. The lord had to protect the interests of the people and tell them what they were doing for collecting taxes. And what are the specific implications of the new policy of withdrawing from the lords, when the lords do not get the understanding of the people, they must carefully consider whether they will go their own way.

The most famous example is the "republican administration" period of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

King Zhou Li forcibly enriched the mountains, forests, rivers and rivers as the king, and did not allow civilians to enter the woods to fish and hunt, which was a huge mistake in ancient times, violating the important interests of the nobles and the people, and was purely a means of strengthening centralized power, but it caused strong dissatisfaction in the whole world, and King Zhou Li arrogantly refused any advice. and killed all the dissatisfied, which led to a large-scale riot among the countrymen, and King Li was forced to flee to Yi.

It was a premeditated action, the aristocratic group and the vast number of people united to expel King Zhou Li from the royal capital, so this period of history is called the rebellion, the people of the Western Zhou Dynasty, it was the villagers in Nanzhuang who watched and listened to the proclamation of the husband, and their ancestors participated in the riot of the people who expelled King Zhou Li. Their descendants have lived in Luli for generations.

As the times changed and entered the Warring States Period, the saying of Chinese people and wild people gradually disappeared, but it does not mean that Chinese people and wild people have been erased from our civilization, and the status and significance of Chinese people remain unchanged. The savages were renamed the Luzuo Floating Population, or more simply the Untouchables, and the names of the Chinese and the Savages changed. The content has not changed.

Farmers of handicrafts, farmers of agriculture. A businessman in business, a craftsman of pure skill. As well as fishing, chopping firewood, mining, digging mountains, and so on, all walks of life must live in Luli, and the rules handed down from ancient times are savages who do not live in Luli, and no country allows the people to be allowed to live in the wilderness.

All settlements had to be established by the emperor or lord's permission, and it was not allowed to move without permission, and it was regarded as a bad act of tax evasion, military evasion, and military evasion, and the punishment for those caught was no different from that of 500 or 1000 years ago.

The lecture came to an end.

The people of Nanzhuang were gossiping, and suddenly someone said: "I said Ding Suifu, can you tell us about the war in the north, have we Pingyang Hou repelled the Huns in the north?" ”

"Hehe, you are so lucky, the general is a famous big man, last month a big battle broke out in the west of Yinshan Mountain, the general of the car cavalry with 20,000 enemies and 50,000, more than 6,000 enemies, more than 43,000 prisoners, but also captured more than a dozen tribes 320,000 people, more than 6 million cattle and sheep, rescued more than 20,000 Han prisoners, including two large Hun kings, one called the king of white sheep, a corner tower annoying king, the news spread to Chang'an City, I heard that even the Son of Heaven was shaken."

The young children's eyes widened for a moment: "How many losses did our Han army have?" ”

Suifu said proudly: "To tell you the truth, the losses of the Han army are very small, the battle report says that more than 600 dead and more than 1,500 wounded, the Huns sent dozens of marksmen, killed many of our Han army, and finally the general of the Che Cavalry personally went out and killed all the Hun marksmen, if it weren't for those people to hinder the losses, the losses would be less." ”

"What kind of king did you win and get more than six million cattle and sheep? The Huns were really rich. ”

"You are wrong to say that, you must know that the cattle and sheep on the grassland are about the same as our grain, and you think that six million sheep are six million stone grain, do you still think it is too much?"

The people of Nanzhuang counted with their fingers for a long time, and said that each family in Nanzhuang yielded more than four stones and two buckets of rye per mu, as well as more than two stones of soybeans, and there were more than a dozen Zhuangzi under the jurisdiction of 2,300 hectares of land in Pingyang Houfu, not to mention that this field was not ranked in Guanzhong, and the actual land controlled was only three townships, and there were at least six to twelve townships in a county according to the size, usually a county had six to twelve counties, and only the township under the jurisdiction of Lu Li was not easy to calculate.

There are 2,300 hectares of cultivated land in Pingyang Houfu, and the total annual grain output fluctuates at about 1.4 million stones, which was a large amount five years ago, but it is not a big number at all today, there are 510,000 hectares of cultivated land in 800 miles of Qinchuan, about 300,000 hectares of cultivated land with a relatively high degree of development, and the annual grain output in Guanzhong is at least 120 million stones, an increase of more than 40 percent over grain five years ago.

The development of agriculture brings new opportunities, but also promotes the emergence of a new wave of baby boom, the population growth rate in Guanzhong has increased significantly in the past four years, couples of appropriate age choose to have more children when they are rich, the imperial court deposed the 7 to 14 years old to pay 20 yuan a year is a good news, multiple effects have led to the population growth rate in Guanzhong to maintain four percent, which means an increase of 230,000 newborn babies a year, the population growth rate of Kanto has also improved, in the past two years to maintain a two-quarter growth rate, the normal situation should be one percent growth rate, Two percent is a high-speed growth, and a growth rate of four percent can only be described as a baby boom.

As the villagers of Nanzhuang become more and more affluent, the demand for buying arable land has increased greatly, but buying and selling land is not a transaction that you want to do, and you also need to decide the amount of land to buy according to the size of the title.

Zheng Lao's title is within the military merit system, but his grandson Zheng Tong does not have such a high title, and he has always been cautious in buying and selling land, and he is unwilling to buy more land and sell it in accordance with the Han law in the future.

"I heard that in the last battle of Yanmen, all the Han army was promoted to a 3-level knighthood, and the Yulin Cavalry was upgraded to a 4-level knighthood."

"The Son of Heaven has sealed a lot of Guanneihou, and many people envy it, I heard that Li Guanglai, the Taishou of Shanggu County, is reluctant to go to Longxi, just to make a great contribution in the Han-Hungarian War and promote the marquis."

"Our monarch and marquis are the most powerful, and they are rewarded for their merits in destroying the country, and they are famous all over the world."

The strong men of Nanzhuang were extremely greedy, and the women smiled without the slightest worry, it was a matter of course for men to go out to fight and make meritorious contributions, and the enthusiasm of the people to join the army was stimulated by the reward for meritorious service, otherwise everyone would have to bear a heavy burden of conscription every year, and the society would have long been plunged into the turbulent flames of war and could not extricate themselves.

Chang'an City.

Liu Ling returned to his small mansion exhausted, and was stunned to find two uninvited guests sitting in the room.

After experiencing the initial surprise, he quickly calmed down: "Who are you?" What is the matter with coming to my house? ”

The woman in black is tall and has a cold temperament, the fly in the ointment is that her beautiful face has a cold look, and her scrutinizing gaze swept over Liu Ling's whole body: "Your reaction is very fast, you have only been stunned for two breaths since you entered the door, no wonder you can entangle Pingyang Hou and not let go." ”

"Who the hell are you?"

"My name is Ji Jiao, and this is my brother Ji Ying."

The black-clothed man sitting on the other side swept her indifferently, as if looking at an ordinary ornament-like gaze: "Pingyang Hou's industry is very large, we small families want to hitchhike, how about Princess Ling give it a convenience?" ”

It was not so much an inquiry, but a unilateral notice telling Liu Ling that he needed to give a free ride.

Liu Ling sat down quietly and chuckled: "The two of you know that it is the industry of the Marquis of Pingyang, and you still want to intervene, and you are very bold. ”

"We understand the rules, and there is a price to be paid for hitchhiking, and our chip is the king of Dian." Ji Jiao snorted coldly: "Our grandfather Ji Xin has a deep network foundation in Southwest Yi, which is of great benefit to Pingyang Hou's development of Southwest Yi. ”

Liu Ling suddenly remembered Ji Xinqi, it was a very ancient name, ordinary people would not have thought that the descendants of that ancient surname were still walking around, thinking of that family was a little vigilant in his heart, and his words were more cautious than just now.

"The original way is that the lord of the tomb is a heroine among women, and now it seems that it is a bit unworthy of the name."

"It's too much, I'm just an ordinary weak woman."

"Do you want to talk about cooperation?"

"You also know that I am doing things for the Marquis of Pingyang, and the stakes are so high that I dare not exercise my monopoly power."

Ji Jiao sneered: "Don't think we don't know anything, we all know how much power you have, and you can't hide anything from our ears and eyes." ”

"What's going on in our house? Is my father going to rebel again? Liu Ling disagreed.

"Your good brother Liu Qian has frequent contacts with Taiwei Tian Wei, and Liu Qian almost sold you for a few dollars, do you know that?"

Liu Lingxiu's brows furrowed: "How is he." (To be continued, please search, the novel is better and faster!)
