Chapter 400: Big Stick with Sugar
Yes, is it true? Zhuang Tou couldn't believe it.
"It's true." Su Lingyu promised.
The hearts of the heads of the village were pounding, and their hands and feet were a little trembling.
As soon as this news came out, it was like five thunderbolts, which made them scorched on the outside and tender on the inside, but they were so willing to do so, and even wanted to have a few more bombings.
Su Lingyu said: "Yesterday, the emperor decreed that the peasants should be thick, reduce the forced labor, and repair the armament. This is a road to a strong country and a rich army, but it is also a difficult road.
You work harder, produce more food, raise your children well, and sell them to the emperor. ”
"Some of you are slaves, and you serve the grange well, and your grain production is high, and your grades are good.
Your children and grandchildren, get rid of slavery and participate in scientific examinations, this is the matter of honoring the ancestors. ”
"And scientific expeditions?"
Su Lingyu stopped talking and gave them a knowing look.
"The children in your family are not specialized in reading, and they are not very strong in arithmetic, so they can farm the land. If you learn how to farm again, you will be able to recognize and write, and you may be hired exceptionally and go out to be the head of a county. ”
Those Zhuangtou who did not have the seedlings of reading at home also saw hope.
"I told you the benefits, what to do when you go back, don't you need to emphasize it?"
Youzhuang said: "Don't worry, princess, the little ones understand." You just wait and see what we will harvest in the fall. You won't be disappointed. ”
"Don't worry, princess, I don't know anything, I just know how to work in the field."
"Let's go back and do it, don't let the princess down." One stood up and said.
The rest of the people responded and wanted to go home and arrange the farming.
Su Lingyu waved them to sit down.
Uncle Tong stood up, "Sit down, sit down, the princess hasn't finished speaking." ”
Those who wanted to leave, sat down again.
But the ass pancake, the whole person can't sit still.
Su Lingyu said: "Farming and farming are all adapted to local conditions, and what kind of food is planted where is suitable. ”
"But now it's different, if you want to be evaluated, you have to choose one of the two and choose which one to participate in. Those who grow rice can also grow wheat, but only one can participate in the evaluation. ”
Someone asked, "Where you plant both, can't you plant the same thing?" ”
"Yes. But don't ruin the reputation of the king's house, don't treat those people as people, exhaust the slaves, tenants, and long-term laborers, ruin the reputation of the palace, and you will not spare your whole family. ”
"Regardless of reality, tired to death, don't do this village. Don't live here with any one of your family. ”
There were a few village leaders with sad faces, "Princess, those poor ghosts, they are weak themselves, and they come to work when they are sick for a bite or two, if they die in the field, we must not kill them?" ”
"Can't you just let them do the easy work? Give people a bite to eat, and accumulate some yin virtue for themselves. You will be the father of the official master in the future, and your reputation is also very important.
Use more tools and less manpower. Use your brain a little more and think about how the watermill came to be. ”
"Don't be afraid, justice is in the hearts of the people, you killed it, or someone deliberately framed you, Qingwangfu will find out the truth."
"Princess Xie, with the word princess, the little one is easy to do."
Su Lingyu said: "The palace will set up a patrol team to check on various places at any time. Let's see who is opportunistic and uses other improper methods to defraud the quota.
Once identified, the competition will be disqualified. The number of patrols is limited, and only two members of a grange can participate. Go back and choose well, first, you must be proficient in field affairs, and second, you must be physically strong.
Don't send a thin one, you can't even compare to a girl here, that's a soft-footed shrimp. ”
"Hahaha."
Taking advantage of their happy time, Su Lingyu took a sip of tea.
When they have laughed enough, they will say: "The head of the palace can go back, and the head of the palace stays." ”
The heads of the palace knelt down and left together, leaving the heads of the palace.
They are really pitiful, they were given out by the emperor, but they were not accepted by Princess Qing, and they didn't know whether to surrender or not to surrender in the middle.
Among them, there are two small groups, one is represented by Lu Xiu, the nephew of Concubine Zheng, who believes that he should surrender and show loyalty.
The other is Zhou Wu, a distant nephew of the Empress Dowager, who felt that he should not surrender, they were still the emperor's people, and if something happened, he still had to find the emperor to administer justice.
As soon as the rest of the people left, the hundred or so people sat in the flower hall, and it seemed very empty.
Su Lingyu swept left and right and said, "What I said just now is also useful to you." If you do well, you will be rewarded, and if you don't do well, you will be punished. ”
Su Lingyu's tone changed, "Everyone knows that you were handed over to me by the emperor, and I have the power of life and death over you." Next, I will issue some laws to go down, mainly to improve the fields in your hands and increase the production of food.
If you do it obediently, if you disobey the yang and the yin, or even try to stop it, then you will die. ”
"You now have no worries about food and clothing, fine clothes and food, and the children in the family can be regarded as young masters and young daughters.
But don't forget, you are royal servants, and you have a deed of sale. Whether your future life will be good or bad depends on your choice. ”
"If you don't want to be managed, then find someone to change the Imperial Village, or hand over the account book and leave the Imperial Village. As long as it is left, work hard, maybe your children and grandchildren will be able to soar and stand in the temple. ”
"Princess, what you said is very reasonable, the matter of eating the king and being loyal to the king. It's just that here, there is a lot of grassland, and it is not suitable for wasteland. ”
"You're a distant relative of Friday, the Queen Mother."
Zhou Wu, who is nearly forty years old, said, "Exactly." ”
"I know the situation there you have, you won't use it for farming, I heard that the emperor wants to build a horse farm in your place. Your side was quickly expropriated by the East Battalion.
When you go back, vacate a piece of land, and there will be three or four hundred soldiers who will go and build houses to live in.
You can find a way by yourself, and stay any longer, I'm afraid that no matter how much money you have saved, it won't be enough for those military leaders. ”
Zhou Wu's heart sank slightly, he originally thought that he would be able to take a bite from Princess Qing, but he didn't expect that he didn't even have the qualifications to take a bite.
"Which one is Lu Xiu?" Su Lingyu asked.
"The minister is here."
"The fields over there are too bad to be suitable for farming, so it's more advantageous to go straight to the workshop. Competing for a degree is not eligible, you think for yourself, whether you want to stay, or you want to leave. ”
"Dare to ask the princess, what workshop will be built in the minister's place?"
"You are suitable for growing medicinal herbs, and maybe you will build a pesticide workshop."
People who farm the land know that the pesticide workshop is a profiteering workshop, and it is more advantageous to stay than to leave.
Lu Xiu bowed and said: "It is an honor for the ministers to serve the emperor. The emperor asked the ministers to manage the imperial village, and the ministers had no reason to leave. ”
That's to stay.
Not only Zhou Wu's eyes were hot, but the Zhuang heads on the side were all envious and jealous.
Su Lingyu said one more thing, "Seventy percent of your harvest this year will be handed over to the inner treasury." It is seventy percent of the grain, not seventy percent of the silver. ”
The crowd was silent, and it was like a basin of cold water poured over their heads to sober them up from their frenzy.
Su Lingyu said: "After you go back, you don't need to plant seeds first, wait for the people from Qingwangfu to come over, redivide the planting area and the number of acres, and then plant seeds." There wasn't much time to lose. ”
"Yes."
"Adjournment."
