Chapter 225: The Theory of the Family

"The people of Qianbao dare to play like this?" Su Han thought with a sigh.

Qianbao is one of the four regions of the five states of Jiuyuan, which was bullied by Rong Di a long time ago, in order to prevent Rong Di from plundering, the local residents huddled together to keep warm, and built forts one after another.

They built countless independent castles in the entire open area, which stood densely on the northwestern border, completely blocking the way of Rong Di's eastward advance. So that their cavalry could not run at all, and did not dare to go deep, which played a great role in defending against foreign enemies.

However, among these forts, there are cultivated land, grain drying fields, granaries, mulberry forests, silkworm rooms, and even pastures, and iron shops...... Just like the Western plantation economy in Su Han's previous life, it is completely self-sufficient. It is surrounded by fences or stone walls, and is surrounded by arrow towers and watchtowers, which can resist foreign enemies and have its own armed forces while being self-sufficient. It's simply a country within a country, how can you not make those in power jealous.

Moreover, the lord of the fortress has the power to allocate resources, which of course seems to be nothing in normal times, but in the bitter cold land of the northwest, people are struggling to survive, and being able to control the distribution of resources is simply a great power of life and death.

Power swells people, and when there are foreign enemies, it's okay, in the face of Rong Di, these fortress owners will unite as one, organize production, and gather to resist the enemy. But when Rong Di is weak, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not fight first for survival resources.

At that time, there were 7,000 fortresses outside Lingzhou City, with 100 small people and more than 10,000 large ones, supporting a population of more than 2 million.

Moreover, at the time when the town and the country were in power, the national strength of the Great Cadres was prosperous, and they even once went west to the north to fight, but the existence of these fortresses hindered the Great Cadres' journey to the west.

So the town of the state of the town ordered the reform, the demolition of the fort, the formation of households.

It's just that even if the Zhenguo Gong has the talent to seek the country, it is impossible to do everything with the ability of the heavens, and he is the one who gives the order, but the person who implements it is still the officials below. Therefore, when the order reached the level of the Spirit King, it began to change its taste.

King Ling forcibly demolished the head of the Thousand Fort according to his relatives and relatives, and those who took refuge in him were retained and divided into military towns; those who did not listen to him were forcibly demolished, and the expulsion of the people in the Fort was reduced to the debasement of the slaves and common people, and forcibly turned the entire Thousand Fort into his territory and became a county in Lingzhou.

The order to the town is a sparse, saying that the fortress has been demolished, but although Rong Di goes, the Hu tribe has to be defended, so please build a military town.

Of course, Zhen Guogong knew what was going on in his heart, but if the water was clear, there would be no fish, and if the person was observed, there would be no disciples.

Although King Ling swallowed a thousand forts, he did not treat the people of a thousand forts as equally as the rest of the people under his rule, not to mention the sons of the four counties of Lingzhou, and even half of the people of the other three states were not comparable.

After all, these people are latecomers, and they have lived together with Rong Di for many years, and they are seriously Hu, and in the eyes of the superiors, this is a model of tricky and uncertain people's feelings, and it is necessary to strengthen control. Of course, there are also some inexplicable discrimination, resulting in even a hundred years later, after three generations of Lingwang, even Qianbao Dao has been incorporated into the Lingzhou system, and the residents regard themselves as Lingzhou people, but this kind of control that is different from other places still exists.

That's why Su Han was so surprised when he saw that the people of Qianbao also dared to fool the Spirit King.

It's just that since Kunlun Academy has taken the roll call, it is to admit this student, even if the Spirit King wants to investigate it in the future, there will be the academy to mediate for it, this is the confidence of the giants of the ten directions.

Chen An received his share of the materials with an expressionless face, and without any suspense, he was also assigned to the sixth room of the third place, so he walked to Su Han's side and waited for others to lead the way to the dormitory.

That's right, it was Chen An, after he had all his bags ready that day, he was led to the boundary gate by a special person and entered Kunlun Academy.

It was then that he finally knew where he had been, but even if he did, it didn't seem to help him much. In his position, if he wants to go to the Western Regions to find Xiaoguang's whereabouts, there are only three ways to go, one is to go north to the Pegasus Corridor, a place of thousands of miles, is the Western Regions, although this road is a smooth road, but there are countless bandits, without experiencing a fight, don't want to reach it at all; the other is to cross the endless Han Sea to the west, not to mention that there are moats blocking this road, and the sand thieves who also crisscross it can make people desperate; the last road is very simple, that is, to climb over the Kunlun Mountain in front of you, but that is something that even the grandmaster has to weigh.

If he is still in his heyday, although these three roads are dangerous, it is not impossible to take him at the cost of his life, but with his current situation, stepping on these three roads is simply lifeless.

Chen An does not lack the courage to fight for his life, but he is not stupid, he knows that he is not a hero who will die and move forward, he is stupid, so he has to temporarily give up the plan to find Xiaoguang, lie dormant here, sharpen the knife and not chop wood, first find a way to restore his strength, and then plan later.

Thinking that Xiaoguang is safe with the Grandmaster, he should be able to save him by himself, not to mention that there is a big opportunity in front of him now, which must not be missed.

The fame of Kunlun Academy, he had heard it when he was in Shuobei, and he still remembered that in the wine shop and teahouse in Shangyuan County, those passing merchants mentioned this name every time, and they were envious and yearning. It's just that now he is a person with no identity, no background, and even no faults, and it is unbelievable that he is qualified to enter such an academy. It made him wonder sometimes that he was even going to run the time.

Thinking all the way, Chen An and his entourage came to a certain area in the west garden of the college, which is an independent courtyard, each courtyard has three rooms, and each house has four bunks.

Tomorrow the church will be opened, and even if all the entrance ceremonies have been completed, you can officially visit the teachers and ask for academic arrangements. Of course, this is also the northwest folk customs are rude, the etiquette is not heavy, if you have to kill three livestock and six animals in the Central Plains, you have to ask the teacher to teach a series of troublesome rituals, not tossing for three days and three nights is simply not over.

"I've seen all my classmates, we will live together for many years in the future, why don't you get to know each other now, in the next Zhang Jin, the people of the Zhang family in Tianshui ......" Although Zhang Jin is young, he is very generous, put down his bags and greet Chen An and the three of them first.

It's just that what made him very embarrassed was that the only things that responded to him were Zhao Mou's scratching head and smiling, Chen An's indifferent nod, and Su Han's smirk.

"Brother Zhang is polite, I have already known each other when I was just roll-called, wouldn't it seem raw to hold these false etiquette at this time, simply to be commensurate with brothers, academic honorifics, not only full of etiquette, but also close, Brother Zhang looks good?" Su Han is very old-fashioned, of course he knows what this Zhang Jin means, the psychology of a little child, first showing off his family background, if he and others bow their heads, then it is estimated that it is a trick to invite guests to dinner and win people's hearts.

I really have to say that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, adults have adults and adults, and children have children.

But he didn't dismiss it because of naivety. Although it is a bear child, there is no way, and it is necessary to live together for a short time, saying something good to coax him, which can save a lot of trouble, and benefit without cost. And he also had to speak up, the two people next to him were clumsy, and the other was a stinky fart, he didn't say anything to warm up the scene, and the relationship between Lala and Lala would not be able to talk awkwardly when they met in the future.

Zhang Jin smiled dryly: "Very good, very good, it's still Brother Su's thoughtfulness, it's just the younger brother's appearance." ”

He turned his head again and glanced at Chen An, who was still expressionless, and Zhao Mou, who had been smiling, and was depressed. He is also learning how to treat people and things with adults in the family, who knows that the first time he uses it today, he touched a nose of ash. So he humbly confessed two more sentences, and then walked out, as if to go to other houses.

Su Han looked at his back and shook his head and smiled, he really hadn't heard of Zhangji's Zhang family, but he could name it after his family and a market town, and he was a first-class gentleman, not an ordinary rich family. But there is also a gap between the gentry, and even this gap can sometimes reach the level of the moat.

The household registration is defined as five levels: gentry, rich, middle, poor, and destitute, and these five levels are also clearly recorded in the official face paper as a basis for taxation. However, among the gentry, there are still some conventional class divisions, which are four classes: family, scholar, poor family, and Shuren.

This class division was inherited from the former Wei Dynasty, and after the establishment of the Great Qian, it was announced that Qi would eliminate the class, so it was abolished, but can the class really be abolished? Even Su Han couldn't do it in his previous life, let alone this other world where force is respected now.

Among these four strata, there are only seventeen families in Daqian, and he refers to the family that owns a thing that can set up a family business for thousands of years, which is either a peerless miracle, or a masterpiece of poetry, books, classics, literature, or other objects such as magic weapons, or even the golden man himself.

As long as the family inheritance can be guaranteed for thousands of years, even if there is a grandmaster fault during the period, it can also be called a family. If there were no such things, just a few grandmasters were in charge, even if they were strong for a while, they would never be able to be named a family.

The scholar clan, also known as the Shi clan, refers to the level of fame and status rights that can be passed on to the family, which was clearly stipulated in the former Wei Dynasty, that is, at least three generations of people in the clan have served as high-ranking officials at and above the county guard. This is the heritage, the heritage of a big family,

In the eyes of the world, the Hanmen is a group of rich people in the countryside, no matter how rich they are, no matter how powerful they are, no matter how powerful they are, they can't escape the root of the nouveau riche. The Xu family where Su Han is located is a family that has changed from a poor family to a family, as long as Su Han's generation has another county-level high-ranking official, then the Xu family can get the title of the family.

This title seems to be nothing on the surface, without the slightest official benefit, and even the Great Qian Imperial Court does not recognize it, but it can only be seen by other clans. But it can bring tangible benefits, such as trade with other clans, intermarriage, and interest binding. In an instant, the Xu family's family assets can be doubled, and Fang He waved his hand to open up the trade route in the Western Regions for the Xu family.

As for the last Shuren, it is even less worth mentioning, the poor family is also the state and the county, the Shuren is at most a township, is the lowest class among the gentry, it is estimated that it is slightly better than the commoners, and even some of the declining ones are not as comfortable as the rich households, after all, they also have to bear high taxes.

In the process, there are quite a few people who are promoted from rich households to wealthy households, and it is even more common for wealthy gentry to fall from rich households to middle households, and even poor households. The changes were so great that none of the real upper classes of the Great Cadres would include them in the aristocratic class.

This is also the reason why Su Han feels that Zhang Jin is naïve, Tianshui Zhang Ji has already arrived in the county, if he is really a county wang, he should report to the Tianshui Zhang family when he is called. Since he didn't have such a roll call, then this Zhang Jin is probably a concubine. He dared to call himself the Zhang family, and he didn't know what to say, if he met a real wealthy family, he would have to kowtow and break the blood.

Even the Hanmen are not qualified to call themselves the Zhang family, and they can be called the family, but the non-family cannot. Although Su Han's Xu family is only a small step away from the real family, they only dare to shout in their own homes, and introducing themselves outside is simply a ridiculous and generous move, and it is easy to be scorned.

But Zhang Jin is only more than ten years old, and he can know something, most of which he is used to at home.
