182 Showing Kindness?

Zhang Juzheng straightened his tone, and said with a solemn face: "Judging from the social productivity of this era, land will still be the main source of income for the Kingdom of Heaven, and we will never be too short of food, while the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, which is full of enemies, has a lower demand for commerce and trade, because we only have internal trade to carry out, and the Lithuanian region has been devastated by the war, and the remaining workshops are all for the service of the Kingdom of Heaven, and private transactions are either robbed or destroyed in the war, and there is not much profit in a short period of time."

Therefore, we must first plan the use of the land, which can be combined with the fact that we can buy Lithuanians and distinguish their political nature.

In the following counterinsurgency war, in order to prevent the rebel militias in Lithuania from fighting more and more, we can implement a relatively fair policy of equal division of land, which is also in line with the slogan of sharing the acres of land shouted at the beginning of the kingdom of heaven.

We sent people to count the unowned fields and distribute them as a reward to the lower Lithuanians who were willing to follow the kingdom of heaven and 'support' the rule of the kingdom of heaven, and the criterion for judging it was the grading system of initiation that His Majesty just mentioned.

If Lithuanians want to obtain land, they must convert to the Taiping Doctrine, which is a prerequisite for all the welfare of the Kingdom of Heaven, and even His Majesty the King of Heaven can do it more thoroughly, and all the locals who do not convert to the Taiping Sect to learn Chinese and Han culture will be regarded as naturally inferior, to bear heavy labor and have no right to own their own private property, in fact, slaves of the Kingdom of Heaven!

Native whites of this class will be the lowest social status in the kingdom of heaven in the future, and we can even restrict them in the marriage bill to reduce the fertility rate of the inferior people, so as to achieve the goal of chronic reduction of the inferior blood population.

Of course, we must implement double standards in dealing with the Lithuanian nobles who surrender to the Lithuanians, and we cannot restrain the Lithuanian nobles who have fiefs and subordinates in the way of the Taiping doctrine, but only need their symbolic conversion, but the Lithuanian nobles must also make other contributions while maintaining their basic rights.

All Lithuanian nobles who kept their fiefs were required to regularly provide a certain number of coolies and private soldiers to the Kingdom of Heaven, and the Lithuanian nobles had to be supervised and examined by the agents of the Jinyi Guard, and the people of the Kingdom of Heaven would be responsible for counting the population and territorial area of the Lithuanian nobles' fiefdoms, and deciding the number of young coolies and private soldiers they needed to hand over on a regular basis based on these information.

The young coolies will be used as a source of consumables for the officials and slaves of the Heavenly Kingdom, and the private soldiers can adopt a rotation system, placing them on the front line of the law and order war, and as the servant army of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to suppress the mob, even if the private soldiers and knights of the Lithuanian nobility are demoralized, they are not something that ordinary mud-legged people can compete.

The Lithuanian nobles who surrendered to the Lithuanian will become vassals in the occupied areas of the Kingdom of Heaven, providing a steady stream of blood for the great cause of the Kingdom of Heaven, because the Kingdom of Heaven implements a centralized system, there will be no more rewards for the nobles, and the number of these Lithuanian nobles will not increase, with the stability of the Kingdom of Heaven, His Majesty the King can also imitate the Tui'en Decree during the Han Dynasty, the noble families of the European continent have many heirs, and they will be divided from generation to generation with the Tui'en Order, and it will not be long before the Lithuanian nobles will become a plate of loose sand, At that time, His Majesty the Heavenly King can easily cut off those 'Tuien nobles' who don't have much strength just by finding an excuse.

Because of this, the greatest enemy of the Kingdom of Heaven is never this small group of local nobles, the key goal of the Kingdom of Heaven should be to manage a large number of people, the Kingdom of Heaven will combine the policy of dividing the land with the examination system after entering the church, if there are people in the local people who are superior in learning and can cross the threshold set by the fourth level of Chinese, the Kingdom of Heaven can implement the examination method to evaluate these people, and appoint them as local grassroots 'civil servants'.

In this way, the problem of the shortage of Taiping soldiers will be greatly alleviated, because these civil servants are all civilian personnel, and they are also learning the Taiping doctrine and Han culture of loyalty and patriotism, and can only act within the rules and regulations we have set.

The welfare of these civil servants is the reward of land, of course, this is only temporary, such as today the country does not have much currency and trade, using land can save a lot of trouble and save costs. The cultivation of the land also generated large taxes to feed the kingdom of heaven.

The best of the civil servants can be promoted through the examination of performance and Taiping doctrine and Han culture, acting as local officials, and dividing a clear hierarchy step by step, as the land they control increases and wealth accumulates, they can easily become loyal supporters of the kingdom of heaven, the reason is simple, they were originally just penniless commoners, everything they have is given by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the Taiping doctrine they learn is always reminding them that His Majesty the King of Heaven is the object of their loyalty and gratitude!

In this way, Lithuanians will naturally be divided into different grades because of the examination class for entering the religion, and the compulsory racial hierarchy will never be as strong as the social hierarchy of wealth division, and those civil servants and even officials who have been screened out layer by layer in the examination of Taiping doctrinal brainwashing will be given large tracts of land, and we can even allow them to hire serfs for farming, and these civil servants and even officials will naturally become exploiters, and their exploitation rights are different from those of the aristocracy. Everything they do comes from the evaluation system and laws of the kingdom of heaven, and as long as they still want to keep what they have, at least they will not stand on the opposite side of the kingdom of heaven.

As for those foreign civilians who are destitute because they have not passed the fourth level of Chinese, they will naturally hate those compatriots who have obtained a lot of land, and label them as all kinds of traitors and thieves, and without any propaganda from Heaven, the low-level civilians of Lithuania will be separated, and the Lithuanians who join the Taiping Doctrine will also subconsciously safeguard the interests of the Kingdom of Heaven, as well as their own interests! ”

Hong Tiancheng frowned and pondered for a moment, then asked, "According to the method you said, isn't the Holy Treasury system going to be banned?" ”

"No, no, no, Your Majesty, the Sacred Treasury system will be a magic weapon for the Taiping Army to quickly accumulate wealth, we don't need to ban the Sacred Treasury system, treat those foreign civilians who have not converted to Christianity, the Sacred Treasury system has always existed, we can also make it more stringent, reduce the rations distributed, and force the Lithuanians to find other ways out.

As for those who enter the Taiping Sect and pass the examination, the holy treasury system can naturally be relaxed, so that they can also reveal their differences and show the benevolence of His Majesty the Heavenly King. ”
