Chapter 34: The Key to Reform
Non-Chinese land can enjoy 500 years of private ownership, sacred and inviolable. The land of China is all nationalized!
This is the news that Fang Yun announced in 190 A.D. that he ruled the states and counties, and there may be no way to solve the land disputes of the Chinese dynasties, but it is a solution.
Of course, Fang Yun chose a more moderate method, that is, the redemption system. All the land will be gradually redeemed by the government in batches, and the people and families will receive a good sum of money, and they will still have the right to use the house for a hundred years.
After 100 years, only the descendants need to go to the newly established Land and Resources Bureau to register, and then they can generally continue to obtain the right to use the land. Even if there is no way for him to continue to use it due to special reasons, another piece of land in other areas will be arranged for the landowner to increase by 10%.
Fang Yun was still irresponsible to the extreme, he announced the establishment of the Land and Resources Bureau, and then left it to his subordinates to build a grass platform team, but he paid attention to other places, at most, he came to pay attention to it, and then pointed out a few words or something. What is speechless is that I don't know if this guy has a complete construction policy, and every point is just right.
It's just that if there is really a complete construction plan, it would be good to give it directly, but the clerks below are busy with their work, for fear that they will not be able to build the bureau well, but he is at ease.
In fact, Fang Yun couldn't laugh or cry, he was not good at it at all when it came to production plans, and he couldn't say that he was completely clear about the powers and operating principles of those departments in the future. If you can only see that something seems to be wrong, ask questions, and then casually say a general opinion, maybe your own opinion is more correct, so you give people that impression.
If you really want to count it, he is actually quite innocent, but the question is who believes it?
"In the end, you're going to take away our land?" Du Xi, the new director of the Bureau of Land and Resources, came to the door as soon as possible, and he had asked Fang Yun about the treatment of the family a long time ago.
"How much money can be made from land? After a hard year, I have to rely on the weather to eat, and if the year is not good or there is a drought, I am afraid that this year's harvest will be gone. On the contrary, wouldn't it be faster to build a few workshops and run caravans or something? Fang Yun also refuted a set of later generations.
"What kind of fallacy are you? Nowadays, the yield of an acre of land is almost one stone, and it is precisely because of natural disasters that the price of grain has risen wildly. In some places, the price of a stone of grain can even be as high as 500 or even 700 yuan. In even worse places, even money can't buy food. Therefore, compared to what is wrapped in the waist, it is the right way to have grain in the granary!
Besides, this local official has set up cards layer by layer, and the small officials below are constantly exploiting, how much profit can be made in business, if there is no family background, and even the caravan is not dared to be formed, for fear of losing all his money, how can it be so easy to get money as you said? Du Xian felt that Fang Yun's head was not funny.
Well, Fang Yun can be regarded as knowledgeable, in the case of low productivity, and the intensity of social supervision is so lax, and even the power of the family is even higher than that of the government, it is not surprising that the business is not as good as the peasantry.
In the final analysis, Jiangnan has not been developed at this time, and Huguang has not become the granary of the world, plus the seed grade is too poor, the yield is too low, and one mu of land is only 120 catties, so it is desperate to think about it. In addition, what natural disasters **, if you don't eat well, it's no wonder that everyone is so enthusiastic about the land, just because the land is the foundation of inheritance, without the output of the land, even if you have hundreds of billions of yuan, if you can't buy food, the family's inheritance will be cut off.
It is precisely because of this deformed social situation that people are extremely fanatical about the land. And this frenzy naturally continued to every subsequent dynasty, in fact, in the final analysis, it was the result of low social productivity.
"You've been away for so long, haven't you noticed that we've planted a lot of new crops in Xinhuang County over the years? In addition, the wheat seed has been replaced with a high-yielding one, don't you know? Fang Yun asked curiously.
"This subordinate is busy with affairs when he comes back, and he really doesn't have time to observe." If it is insufficient, admit that Du Xi's upbringing in this regard is still very good.
"Now we have planted something called sweet potato (the tuber plant discovered earlier, after being cultivated to the fourth generation, the taste and yield have become closer and closer to sweet potato), of course, the taste is not very good, but it can produce about seven stones per mu, and we are already further improving the varieties to strive to make the yield and taste even better;
At the same time, we also grow a cash crop called peanuts, which you should have eaten and are a good accompaniment to the snack. However, the peanut itself is rich in oil (produced by the system, the quality is naturally high-quality), and the first batch of peanut oil has begun to be sold, and if the planting area is expanded in the future, then the people should be able to eat some oil.
Finally, the improvement of wheat seeds, the research institute under the Ministry of Agriculture, has developed the third generation of two types of wheat seeds. One type of wheat seed can harvest four stones per mu; Although the second type has only two stones per mu, the taste is far superior to that of the first type of wheat.
Of course, the yields I am talking about are based on the absence of further farming techniques. If it is intensive cultivation to ensure the supply of farm fertilizer, then each mu of sweet potatoes can produce 12 stones, a type of wheat seed can produce 8 stones, and a type 2 wheat seed can produce 5 stones, this data will be further improved in the future, in other words, even if it is a natural disaster, we will no longer lack rations here, considering the problem of not selling to the outside world, so the price of grain will continue to fall......
In such a situation, do you think there is still value in farming? Fang Yun said with a smile.
Well, if it really reaches this level, then Du Xun can't say anything.
"As for doing business, I don't care about anything else, but the new business tax has been measured, and you can take a look at it later. Considering the social supervision and system problems on our side, it is basically possible to avoid the situation of the small officials below abusing their power for personal gain, so the profits of doing business should be considerable!
Besides, I didn't say that I wouldn't let your contracting department be? I really don't worry, contract a piece of land, as long as you pay taxes on time, then who can say anything about you? Fang Yun once again gave an astonishing piece of news.
Indeed, according to Fang Yun, there is no difference whether land is state-owned or not. It's just that the land is not his own after all, and it is inevitable that he will feel a little awkward in his heart, which is the fundamental reason why he complains. Not to mention him, the family and the people, I'm afraid that they won't be able to adapt to this model so quickly, and if they don't have decades, or even three generations of people to adapt, I'm afraid it's hard to accept.
"Again, we have only given reform measures, and the propaganda is not synchronized, and it is inevitable that many people will not know the truth. Come to think of it now, many people have opinions in their hearts, right? Looking back, you have to do a good job of publicity and publicity, and save a lot of trouble. Fang Yun laughed, which could be regarded as an end to Du Xian's intrusion to question himself.
"Don't hide it from the lord, if the family heard that I was acting like this today, they would already denounce it in groups. More than eighty percent of the families said they would never be in our country for the rest of their lives. Moreover, they are smearing us everywhere, so that many people have begun to fear us. The subordinates have already taken matters into their own hands, set up more than 30 propaganda teams, and began to carry out propaganda under their rule, and I believe that good news will soon come back. Xi Zhicai happened to slowly walk into the county office at this time, and reported with a little tiredness. (To be continued.) )
