Chapter 5 Old Taishan
"Father! You are talking nonsense, where does Xianggong have so much land, we have calculated for a long time, and we can only buy more than 2,000 acres if we die! Where can Xianggong conjure up so much land! Fang Wen'er said angrily on the side.
"Look at it, look at it, people say, 'Marrying a daughter who has gone out is like spilling water,' I didn't believe it. But I didn't expect my good daughter to marry out of the country for a few days, and she began to help her husband speak! Fang Wenjin joked with a smile.
"Hehe, this proves that I still had a good vision at the beginning, and I found a good son-in-law for Dong Weng! The two of them can live a harmonious and beautiful life, and now my heart can be put in my stomach! Qian Shijin also joked on the side.
"Oh, ignore you!" Fang Wen'er was shy, and ran away as soon as she turned around.
"Huh! It's like a child! Fang Wenjin looked at Fang Wen'er's back and smiled happily.
"Huh!" Wang Dalun smiled awkwardly on the side.
"Dalun, don't have any worries, you just tell me, I will give you 10,000 acres of land, can you guarantee that there will be so much income per acre?" Fang Wenjin looked at Wang Dalun seriously and said.
Wang Dalun thought for a while and said firmly: "Father-in-law, if there is no major drought next year, then I can guarantee it!" ”
"But I asked the most experienced farmers in the area, and they estimated that next year could be even drier than this year! Can you make sure that all the crops survive and that the harvest doesn't cut too much? Fang Wenjin continued to ask seriously.
"There's not much of a problem with this, both plants are drought resistant! If I have more manpower, dig more deep wells, and build more water cellars, I guarantee that I will not lose too much! After thinking about it, Wang Dalun replied that he had also encountered a great drought in later generations, and the government at that time encouraged the masses to dig deep wells and repair water cellars! After the worst crops, the crops were not affected much.
"The county government doesn't have so much money to dig wells and repair water cellars for you, but fortunately, you have a lot of money, and there is no shortage of county government subsidies for you! You say, don't you? Fang Wenjin looked at Wang Dalun with a smile and said.
"This, you don't have to worry about your father-in-law about money, I can handle it!" Wang Dalun saw that Fang Wenjin knew that he had money, so he didn't dare to hide it, so he hurriedly promised.
"Hmmm! Good! All you have to do is do these things! Fang Wenjin nodded approvingly: "You don't have to worry that I will let you work in vain, I will help you solve the rest of the land!" I'll make you a big landlord in Xingxian! ”
"Then father-in-law, what are you going to do?" Wang Dalun asked curiously.
"Do you know who has the most land in Daoxing County?" Fang Wenjin did not answer Wang Dalun's question, but asked rhetorically.
"In the hands of the border army, many of them are military tuns!" Wang Dalun replied.
"So if you want to buy land, you have to find a way from those Qiu Ba!"
Fang Wenjin saw that Wang Dalun still didn't understand, so he continued to explain: "Now in the land of the nine borders, because the military households have become the serfs of the officers, and the officers have invaded the cantonment land in order to eat the empty quota, it has led to a large-scale flight of the military households, and many lands have become wasteland, and no one in the army has planted them, the people dare not plant, and no one dares to buy them. ”
"Father-in-law, you said that it is a military tun, and you can't buy and sell!" Wang Dalun interjected.
"Don't worry, listen to me!" Fang Wenjin continued: "Many of these lands have become the private property of officers, and only those remote places are barren. I'm going to go to the court and apply to resell or lease these wastelands! ”
"What's the use of these wastelands, it's too far away, and it's not easy for me to manage." Wang Dalun muttered.
"Huh?" Fang Wenjin glanced at Wang Dalun, and Wang Dalun immediately sat down obediently, not daring to say more.
"After approval, it's time to collect the autumn tax. Those officers don't have to pay taxes, I can't take them. But I can take care of the tenants who rent their land, and I see who dares to rent their land again! And then the land will become wasteland? Fang Wenjin explained slowly.
Wang Dalun listened to Fang Wenjin's words, and couldn't help but vomit in his heart: The old man is really black enough, this trick is purely invisible, and it is estimated that those officers will vomit blood in anger.
"Dong Weng, please think twice!" Qian Shijin hurriedly persuaded: "You are digging up the flesh of those officers and letting them bleed!" It's not worth offending them! ”
"Humph! A group of thieves matched the army, ate the court's every day, used the court's, drank the blood of the soldiers enough, and even let go of the horses to eat. The war is together, running faster than anyone else, snatching the people more ruthlessly than thieves, such a group of bastards, what am I afraid of them doing? Fang Wenjin said angrily.
"The land is in their hands, but it is just for them to accept a few more concubines, what is the use of the national court? The land is in my hands, and I can live countless people and do more good deeds to the people! Fang Wenjin burst out of righteousness in the literati's chest.
"Those Qiu Ba are all simple-minded and reckless, I'm afraid they will not be good for you." Qian Shijin persuaded hard.
"This official is a Jinke Jinshi, they dare to touch a finger of me? This official is a local parent, and when it is critical, he can carry the sword of the Son of Heaven and cut off their dogs' heads! Fang Wenjin said excitedly.
"These Qiu Ba Ming don't dare to touch you, for fear that they will secretly make it bad! Xingxian is a land of nine borders, they deliberately make a border trouble, and it is easy to let Mongolian Tatars in! Qian Shijin reminded.
"Humph! They don't dare! If they dare to do it, I will definitely play the court and ask for their heads! Don't forget, our family also has someone in the military department! Fang Wenjin said disdainfully.
"Dong Weng, you can't take it lightly, they haven't done such a thing, when the time comes, they murder you, and you can also push the blame on the Mongols! They don't have any responsibility at all. Qian Shijin said worriedly.
"Humph! It is because of this that I have to take precautions, my net worth and life cannot be pinned on them, I must have my own strength to survive! Fang Wenjin said slowly.
"Dalun, together with the autumn tax, I estimate that there will be a lot of displaced people, don't be afraid to spend money and food, how many people you recruit for me, don't let those Qiu Ba recruit one person!"
"As for the remnants of the army and the fleeing border army, you will quietly take them in, and if you can't do it, you will send them all to a swarm of bees. In short, we can't let those hills have a good time! Fang Wenjin arranged.
Wang Dalun listened to Fang Wenjin's arrangement, and couldn't help but be secretly frightened, the consequences of offending Fang Wenjin were really miserable, digging into your corner until you cried!
Coming back from Fangfu, Wang Dalun was silent all the way, the system gave such a damn task, if he didn't complete it, his life would be in danger. But if you follow the method given by Fang Wenjin, the risk is too great, and it is a very hateful thing to cut off people's money, not to mention offending the violent organization of the army.
In all dynasties, the army was brutal and domineering, and the Song Dynasty was slightly better, but that was in front of the literati. Although the Ming Dynasty also used literature to control the military, but now there are hidden signs of troubled times, and the army's voice will become more and more powerful, so be careful in the future if you offend them.
It seems that my father-in-law is right, I must master a team that obeys my orders, and when my own strength is strong, I am not afraid that others will be unfavorable to me, so that I can survive in this troubled world.
But thinking about the Ming Dynasty still has more than ten years to live, Yuan Chonghuan hasn't killed Mao Wenlong yet, the literati brand still has to be there, otherwise he will be bullied. Mao Wenlong, a first-class member, was killed by Yuan Chonghuan, a third-grade literati, and said that he would kill him. In the final analysis, it is still the brand of the literati who is hard.
Speaking of being a literati, now let Wang Dalun look at "Zi Yue" and "Shiyun" from the beginning, it is estimated that he will go crazy, and his brush words are purely miserable. In a word, there is no drama for reading Wang Dalun.
So what to do, at this time, the benefits of having money are reflected, and you can be imprisoned! Just use the money to buy a prison student, and you don't have to prepare for the imperial examination, just have the sign of a student, not only can you be tax-free, but you can also see the official without kneeling.
Later, when I saw those Qiu Ba of the border army, I could be a head above them psychologically, and some conspiracies and tricks were not easy for them to use. Overall, compared to the diploma that later generations spent money to buy, it is much more cost-effective!
"Xianggong, what are you thinking? Sullen look! Fang Wen'er asked with concern.
"It's nothing, I think about my father-in-law's words, I think of it." Wang Dalun hurriedly replied.
"Are you worried about offending the border army?" Fang Wen'er guessed.
"Well, sort of!"
"Xianggong, you don't have to worry so much, my father is the lord of a county, those border soldiers dare not do anything to him, and although my father is currently demoted, he still has many fellow villagers in the capital as officials, and there are also people in my family who serve in the military department, and those border troops can't afford to make big waves!" Fang Wen'er comforted.
"I'm afraid that they will come to the shadows behind their backs, after all, dark arrows are difficult to prevent!" Wang Dalun sighed.
"Hehe, so Xianggong, you have to hurry up and train your regimental training, you have soldiers in your hands, so you are not afraid of them making a trick!" Fang Wen'er reminded.
"Well, when the autumn harvest is over, we have to step up recruitment! But before that, I have one more thing to do! Wang Dalun said.
"What's so urgent?"
"Practice calligraphy! I'm going to get ready to read! Wang Dalun said firmly.
"You? Xianggong, don't be kidding, you only came to study at this age, is it too late? Fang Wen'er said in surprise.
"I'm not going to take the imperial examination, I'm going to be a prisoner, but when I become a prisoner, I have to be able to write my own name, right?" Wang Dalun said depressedly, a dignified undergraduate, almost became illiterate in ancient times.
"Giggles, you really should practice that word, it's really ugly!" Fang Wen'er covered her mouth and smiled.
Wang Dalun is full of black lines, as a later generation of otaku, he rarely even uses a fountain pen, let alone a brush.
"It's good to take a prisoner, and the family doesn't have to pay taxes, so you can save a little bit! I'll let my father handle it for you, if he speaks, Xuezheng can also have less money, but I'm afraid I will have to pay this year's autumn tax. Fang Wener finally agreed with Wang Dalun's idea.
