PS: Ask for a monthly pass! Ask for a commuter pass!

A No. 2 Fu boat slowly stopped at the dock in Shuicheng, and Chen Xin slowly stepped off the gangplank and stretched his hands and feet on the dock slightly. On the nearby wharf, a group of people are going to Lushun, this group of victims from Jinan last year, most of whom do not know Chen Xin. They were carrying grain and grass at the docks, and looked curiously at the guards who disembarked on the boat.

The wharf near Zhenyangmen is transporting horses, which are for the Mounted Infantry Department, and it is estimated that the grain and grass in Lushun will not be transported until May, and before that, the Horse Infantry Thousand Headquarters can only use horses in turn.

Chen Xin first went to visit Lü Zhi and discussed with him about monopolizing the Liaohai trade, and Lü Zhi was very interested when he heard it, so that he could not only control the flow of military supplies into Liaodong, but also make everyone rich. He also knew that there must be a Wang Tingtry, but he would not ask about it, this matter was to rely on Chen Xin as an intermediary to connect the main people in Dengzhou officialdom, and then everyone would share the money together, Lu Zhi would never talk about it face-to-face with Wang Tingtry.

Lu Zhi is an old partner here, the two go straight to the point, and soon negotiate the intention, and the specific details will be discussed after Chen Xin has visited Wang Ting.

Chen Xin went out and went straight to the governor's office, but Wang Tingli was not there, so he had to ride back to the east school field slowly.

The people in the Wendeng system had already learned that he was back, and there was a large group of people waiting in the deputy commander's mansion, and Huang Side saw Chen Xinying's door appear, and immediately trotted over first, and whispered to Chen Xin about the land dispute.

Chen Xin listened as he walked, nodding slightly from time to time, Huang Side finished talking about the general situation, and said, "My lord." Mr. Liu was present that day, and he did his best. It's just a little bit wrong. Tired of our cantonments, eleven of them died, hundreds of wounded, and when the soldiers arrived that day, Mr. Liu only asked them to drive away those households, and the punishment was too light. It's not good for our Tuntian plan. Now not only An Xiangbao, but also the four fields of Dengzhou are ready to move, and in front of the five tunbao we have settled, there are also people who dare to come and scold. ”

Chen Xin's expression was as usual. Interrupted with a gentle wave of his hand, "Let's talk about the meeting." ”

The two walked to the photo wall, Chen Xin saw Liu Minyou with a gray face at a glance, couldn't help laughing, patted him on the shoulder and said loudly: "Minyou is worthy of Mr. Liu of our Wendeng camp, who dared to use a gun to arrest people, and saved one of our tun households." It has greatly increased the prestige of my Wenden camp. ”

Liu Minyou arched his hand slightly and did not speak, Chen Xin said with a smile: "This official knows that Minyou has a comprehensive plan, but it is inconvenient to say it. He instructed the people around him, "You all go to the conference room with Wang Mafu and wait, and I will listen to Mr. Liu's strategy first." ”

Wang Mafu, the adjutant, immediately and competently asked the guards to arrange the venue, and the other officers and civil affairs officials who were talking about it quieted down. I felt that Chen Xin had peace of mind when he came back, and followed Wang Mafu to the conference room.

Chen Xin led the listless Liu Minyou back to his house, only a fur dog followed, he closed the door and said to Liu Minyou: "I said that there will be disputes over the land, you still don't believe it." ”

Liu Min sighed godlessly. "Now the fight has started, and more than a dozen have died. Who would have thought that those tenants could work so hard. ”

Chen Xin went to fetch a basin of water from the water tank, began to wash his face with a handkerchief, and said: "Those who think we are going to cut off their livelihood and don't fight with you are strange." Although the tenants are bitter, they always have a hope of survival, and we have collected the land secondly, and the most important thing is to transfer people from Wendeng, and the tenants must be muttering in their hearts. ”

"I didn't think about this matter thoroughly, so I should let those fast hands explain it to the tenants first."

"It's useless, the local upper clan is more effective than the government in the long run, and we have also encountered it in Wendeng, but they are not so bold. It hasn't attracted our attention. There are only a few people who are fast hands, and how many people can talk to them. ”

Liu Minyou looked up at Chen Xin and replied, "Then what do you say?" ”

"It's easy, find soil first...... The gentry who took the lead were arrested first, and the tenants who killed people were arrested and handed over to Tang Zhixian to be imprisoned. Then divide other households, otherwise we will not be able to carry out this land reform, and we will return to the land reform, this is our land. ”

"Our field." Liu Min wanted to speak and stopped, if he could still question Chen Xin before, now that he had killed a tenant, he suddenly felt that he was not qualified to question Chen Xin.

Liu Minyou was silent for a moment, and finally said: "First arrest the members and patriarchs, and among the rest of the people, give the tenants a way to live, and treat them as ordinary tun households, so as to divide those households." ”

Chen Xin said with a smile: "The people have really changed a lot, if you hadn't said that you would have arrested people first." ”

"Don't kill them, I can't sleep for the past two days, I killed that person and his wife and children, I ...... when I think about it"

Chen Xin wiped his face and threw the handkerchief in the basin, "This is a civil affairs matter, since you said it, don't kill it, let Tang Zhixian try it slowly, and the lawsuit will beat him for a year and a half, and find our dead and injured tun households to take turns to sue, so that they will be beaten bitterly." ”……

By the time the two arrived at the conference room, it was already full of people, including the tun chief in the clothes of the common people and the civil servants in the green clothes. The civil affairs are headed by Mo Huaiwen and Xu Yuanhua, and the army has Huang Side, Wang Changfu, and Fan Shouye; Zhou Shifa usually does not attend such meetings, and he is busy moving the headquarters of the Intelligence Bureau to Dengzhou.

In the middle of their conference room was a long table, and the two of them sat on the left and right of the side facing the door. Chen Xin sat down and didn't have any opening remarks, and said directly: "On the side of civil affairs, who will talk about the progress of the recent establishment of the new tunpu." ”

Liu Minyou was about to speak, but Chen Xin stopped him and whispered, "Let your subordinates speak first." ”

Liu Min thought about it, and he might not be proficient in everything in the future, so he immediately named and said: "Tunpu is in charge of Xu Yuanhua, so you will report to General Chen first." ”

Xu Yuanhua is in charge of this matter, Wen Deng, who came to him in the seventh year of the Apocalypse, is very familiar with Chen Liu, and stands up very calmly and says: "This time the occupation of cultivated land has always been managed by the civil administration, and Mr. Liu has set a strategy in advance. The land in Dengzhou and Qixia is relatively barren, and we give priority to relocating Tunpu in Pingdu, and Penglai, Laiyang, and Qixia are only located near the official road for the time being. First, it is convenient for transporting materials and agricultural tools, and second, it is conducive to the development of commerce. The third is to control the traffic to and from the army, which is conducive to the future mobilization of troops. Limited to the shortage of materials and roads, 200 to 300 households were resettled in each tun first, and the shelves were erected, and then slowly filled up. ”

Chen Xin nodded and said, "Mr. Liu's arrangement is very appropriate. ”

Xu Yuanhua was encouraged, and continued: "At present, Pingdu Prefecture occupies a total of 150,000 mu of abandoned land and cultivated land, and has set up 30 tunpus, with 200 households per tun at present. 6,000 households with a population of 23,000; Dengzhou set up five Tunpu, seven Laiyang, two Qixia, each tun is about 200 households, a total of more than 3,200 households in the three places, and 10,000 and 30 people. The Pingdu Prefecture has been allocated ploughing cattle and seeds. But these tun households have to be raised by us now, Pingdu Zhou City is dilapidated, there are merchants from Jinan, Qingzhou, Linqing and other places have arrived one after another, but it is still too few, and many of the chaotic soldiers who were defeated by Confucius fled into Qingzhou Mansion and often came out to rob. Therefore, the trade route from Qingzhou is not smooth. We have to transport a lot of food from Wendeng every day, and we can't increase the population in the short term. ”

Chen Xin smiled after hearing this: "More than 30,000 people have been placed in a short period of time, and Xu Yuanhua has done a good job. What do you have to add? ”

Liu Minyou flipped through the book in his hand and said lightly: "Grain."

There is no need to worry about food, now the Haihe River is freezing. We can buy grain from Tianjin and go to Pingdu Prefecture by water in Changyi. There is no need to transport grain by land from Wendeng, I have arranged for people to go to the mouth of the glue sea, and build a port there, where ordinary sand boats can go up through the glue and then enter the tributaries of Baishui and Xianshui, and basically reach the various tunpu, and then it is much closer by land. ”

Chen Xin nodded to Xu Yuanhua, "What are the other difficulties encountered?" ”

Xu Yuanhua looked at Liu Minyou, and then replied: "Pingdu and Dengzhou have successively fought with the natives, and in the end, we have eleven dead, and seventeen natives have died, and the natives near Anxiangbao are in turmoil, so we can only ask Wang Yingguan to send a division of people to guard the Tunpu ......."

Wang Changfu slapped on the table with a bang and scolded loudly: "Turbulent fart, when Kong Youde came, he plundered the four fields, robbed grain and destroyed the house, I didn't see them surging in the crowd, and ran to Fushan in a smoke, the soldiers of the old Wendeng battalion can clean up Kong Youde, can they still be afraid of them?" If you want me to say, let's not be polite to them, send knives and guns to the households, and follow the soldiers to kill An Xiangbao, all the young and strong will be arrested, and all those who have killed will be beheaded, see who the dares to surge. ”

Xu Yuanhua stopped not talking, in fact, he agreed very much in his heart, he has been in charge of Tunpu, since Weihai has been in constant conflict with the local people, after Wendeng, there are more watermills, Wendeng Tunbao has canals and windmills to carry water, there are countless things about people stealing water in the middle of the night, as well as firewood, grazing, land fighting, etc., and it is common for people to fight in the countryside. It was not until after the Wendeng camp was famous that troops were sent to participate in two group fights, and the local households were defeated miserably before they slowly stopped. Nowadays, there are many expansions in Tunpu, and the land occupied by them is intertwined with the households and gentry, and there are more opportunities for conflict.

Huang Side also interjected and said: "What Wang Yingguan said is also right, don't be too reasonable with these people, when Li Jiucheng and them came, why didn't these people fight, they always thought that Li Jiucheng was fierce and beat him himself." This time Mr. Liu was also in danger, and now we have to endure it, they should go to the gate of the barracks to make trouble in the future. ”

Someone took the lead, and several other participants also agreed, echoing Wang Changfu's opinion loudly, Liu Minyou frowned, he didn't expect so many people to agree with the use of force, although he also planned to arrest people, but he didn't plan to directly use force to clear An Xiangbao, and several people in the civil affairs had the most positive attitude, he was very worried that they would form a violent way of thinking to solve the problem.

Seeing that Mo Huaiwen didn't speak, Liu Minyou remembered that Mo Huaiwen was calm and peaceful, and he was usually unwilling to punish people, which was more in line with Liu Minyou's attitude, so he raised his hand to let the others be quiet, and said to Mo Huaiwen: "Huaiwen, what do you think?" ”

Mo Huaiwen stood up and bowed to Chen Xin and Liu Minyou, both of them nodded slightly to him, Mo Huaiwen cleared his throat and said, "I agree with Wang Yingguan's words." ”

Liu Min was stunned, but he didn't expect Mo Huaiwen to open his mouth with this sentence, only to hear Mo Huaiwen continue: "The two adults Mingjian, in Nanzhili, Tiangu is called Tiandi, Tianpi is called Tianmian, and Zhejiang calls Tianpi Tianjiao, which shows that they are all civil contracts, and most of them do not have official red deeds, and the imperial court has no customization. Nowadays, the land is divided into bones and skins, and can be bought and sold separately, and the condition of the fields is more complicated. ”

Chen Xin listened attentively, in fact, the field bone is the ownership, and the field skin is the right to use, and this kind of thing only appeared in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and it can be bought and sold separately. Those who have land have a rent book and can collect rent, but they can't decide who will farm, just like a property right shop, you have the property right to collect rent, but the right to operate belongs to the shopping mall, and it is up to the shopping mall to rent to who and not to rent.

This method made the ownership and trading of land more complicated, and later the price of land gradually exceeded that of field bones, and many new problems arose in the payment of taxes and forced labor, and even some landlords did not know where their fields were for many years, and tenants quietly changed the name of the land and then swallowed it for themselves.

Mo Huaiwen continued: "Our Wendeng Tunbao system is actually the bones of the field, and the tunhu cultivates the fields with the land bark, and the tunhu also has to bear the labor of the peasants and soldiers, the maintenance of nearby roads, and the maintenance of water canals, etc., and the reason why they are willing to do these things is because the civil administration has the power to reclaim the land, so that the tunhu can obey the jurisdiction of the Wendeng camp and bear the military service and grain tax. If the land of these lands in Dengzhou is still in the hands of others, then even if those tenants are accepted into the tunbao, they cannot be forced to bear obligations other than rent, and the original Wendeng tunhu will follow the example, and the tunhu system will not have the slightest authority at all. ”

Chen Xin nodded again and again, he and Liu Minyou both opened the book and recorded it carefully, just now he and Liu Minyou seemed to be thinking about it simply, thinking that everything would be fine if those tenants were taken into Tunpu, but Mo Huaiwen went one step further and proposed the huge negative impact of this method on management.

Mo Huaiwen saw that Chen Xin and the two were also recording, and he was even more confident, "Therefore, his subordinates think that the field skin must not be recognized, when the field skin can still be bought and sold, today this and tomorrow, you want to plant at one time, and you want him to plant at one time, and when it never stops, the field should be returned to the original law of the integration of bone and skin, and our Tunbao has a foothold." ”

Chen Xinbian Ji asked: "Mo Huaiwen, what countermeasures do you have for An Xiangbao's matter this time?" ”

Fan Shouye was the first to say loudly: "My subordinates are willing to take ......"

Chen Xin raised his head and stared at him coldly, Fan Shouye hurriedly shut up, Chen Xin turned his head to Mo Huaiwen and said, "Mo Huaiwen, you say." ”

"First, those who instigate tenants to make trouble in the middle must be arrested, so that those households will have no backbone. Second, the fields where the bones and skins are separated only account for 20% of the total, and most of the rest are originally cultivated by tenants, so that these people can be included in the tunpu, and they will be treated the same as my Wendeng tunhu, and they will be treated equally, thus dividing the largest part of the local people. Third, compensate the deceased on both sides, give their families a way to live, and alleviate the current acute contradictions. ”

Chen Xin felt that most of them were to the point, but he was only slightly dissatisfied, so he asked: "Mo Huaiwen, do you think that if you do what you just said, you can reap the effect of deterring the whole territory?" ”

Mo Huaiwen respectfully said to Chen Xin: "My subordinates haven't finished speaking, but before these four articles, there is one thing that must be done, arrest the local people who killed my tunhu that day, and behead them in public without going through the government!" ”

Liu Minyou looked up at Mo Huaiwen in surprise, his face was calm and slightly excited, not at all cautious as usual, and when it came to killing, it was as plain as killing chickens and ducks.

I only heard him continue: "For these natives, if they give benefits now, they will think that after the fight that day, my Wendeng camp is afraid of them, but thinks that they deserve it, and maybe they will have to take an inch. They must be subdued first, and then they will think that the adults have given them benefits, and they will be grateful to the adults. Therefore, his subordinates agreed with Wang Yingguan's words, issued swords and guns to Tunhu, and took An Xiangbao as an example of Denglai, and sent troops to search for the rebels that day, confiscate all the fields, and kill all those who resisted. ”

Even Zhou Shifa, a cold-blooded animal, turned his head to look at this Mo Huaiwen, and seemed to be a little impressed, he couldn't help but ask Mo Huaiwen: "Mr. Mo, let's just go?" Isn't it like a rebel? Our soldiers don't do that. ”

Mo Huaiwen turned to Zhou Shifa and said politely: "Kong Youde's rebels were wandering at that time, scattered in the countryside, and broke out many times, hurting people many times, recently Yu An Xiangbao colluded with the remnants of the Wenxiang Sect, repeatedly gathered people to make trouble, killed dozens of righteous people, and the righteous people gathered in Fucheng, Tang Zhi County then turned to General Chen, the deputy chief soldier of Dengzhou Town......"

Chen Xin's eyes narrowed slightly, and Liu Minyou beside him seemed to be stunned, and the pen hung in the air for half a day without writing a word.
