You must know that the biggest problem of reform is the resistance of the conservative forces, after all, you are going to infringe on their interests, and those nobles are naturally unwilling. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info Without real power and a strong leader, reform will not be possible.

If nothing else, take the reform of modern countries in the real world, for example, the vast majority of reforms fail because the conservative forces are too strong. The reason why Jose dared to enforce these edicts in Sadrand was because he had real power here, and he could issue them in Sadrand except for Gray's Northwest Army.

If it was a different place, he really wouldn't dare to make these big moves rashly.

But Moxi is now plagued by the war and the Northwest Army, just like a seriously ill patient, if he doesn't take a dose of fierce medicine, I'm afraid he will have to finish it sooner or later. Chaucé is not a reckless person, but it is urgent to rectify the current situation in Sadland.

The first thing to offend was the landlord class in the county of Sadeland, which encouraged the enactment of reclamation. After all, the decree of the people of Jose County is that as long as you reclaim the wasteland, then the land is yours, and the lord also exempts you from paying taxes for a year, who wouldn't want such a good thing?

Moreover, the reason for the war in Moxi is that almost everywhere is deserted land, and most of the nobles who originally owned the land have fled to the east, where can they still manage these useless lands? In this way, Qiao Se will naturally not be polite, which is equivalent to distributing these lands to those peasants again.

The peasants of County Sadland were given land and exempted from taxes and exploitation, and naturally they were grateful to José, the county governor. This inevitably made Jose sigh in his heart: once his decree was introduced, it was almost a blatant land reform. At the very least, the redistribution of the land system, according to common sense, will naturally offend a large number of nobles of the landlord class.

But it was precisely because of the war that the petty nobles in Sadrand were lost, and the strength of those who opposed them was greatly weakened.

This inevitably made Joseph think a little evilly: Although the war sometimes causes great harm to the people, but this war has invisibly helped him solve a big problem! It is best for those damned nobles and lords to get out of Lao Tzu's territory, so that in less than two or three years, Lao Tzu will have the confidence that he can govern Sadland into the largest county in Moxi!

Even if there are some minor nobles in the county town of Sadland, the county keeper's actions are very inappropriate, but Jose directly chooses to ignore the dissatisfaction from these cats and dogs. Now, as long as the Northwest Army does not come to trouble him, Jose still has absolute real power in the county town of Sadland.

At the same time as the spring ploughing was going smoothly, a large number of displaced people also poured into the county town of Sadland, and even formed two large migration clusters in Moxi, among which the city of Valen in the Guannai and the city of Sadrand outside the Guanxi were the main ones. According to the statistics of Alok, the number of people registered in each town will be counted after the spring ploughing is completed. When the time comes, just look at the acres and household registration forms handed in below, and you will know what the results of the tax exemption decree are.

After all, it takes time for such a big policy to be implemented, and it is impossible to have immediate results as soon as it is promulgated. But for José, as long as he can attract a considerable number of displaced people back to Sadrand, and even better to attract the inhabitants of other county towns to Sadrand, he is confident that he will absorb these populations as well.

At the same time as the tax exemption decree was implemented, news also came from Sophia in Moxi Pass that they had successfully negotiated with the governor's palace and came to ask Sistine for food in the name of Joseph. However, for that scheming guy, he hoped that Jose could help him deal with the Northwest Army outside Moxi Pass, and at the same time, he hoped that Jose could be self-reliant.

No way, Sistine is also the nominal governor of Moxi, if he gives Joseph food supplies, the Northwest Army will definitely ask him for food when they know about it. Everyone is a county town under the governor's palace, why does he have food in the county town of Sadland, but our county town does not give food?

Naturally, Joseph knew this, and he didn't expect to get much food from Kannai. Because according to the news that Alok and Charles got from the villages and towns below, at least many peasants still had some rations, although the Northwest Army and the war destroyed a lot of agricultural reclamation areas, but after all, the river valley corridor has always been an important grain producing area in the northwest, and even exported grain to the neighboring province of Turan at one time.

Joseph even thought that if there was a real famine in Sadland after a while, he would open a warehouse and release grain! He had already allocated the garrison's salaries for half a year, and the city's grain reserves were still sufficient, but the price of grain was rising again and again. However, he still has some understanding of these civil affairs matters, at least from his subordinates Charles and others, the situation is not too pessimistic. As long as it lasts until this autumn's harvest, by this time next year, Sadland will be able to recover.

On the Northwest Army's side, Gray in the city of Sadrand is quite honest, and the last bloodshed caused by the protest of the people in the barracks is now almost a plummeting position of the garrison in the city. Many citizens were also extremely dissatisfied with these guys, and Jose even felt that he didn't have to do it himself, and these guys might not be able to get along in the city sooner or later.

At present, at least everything is going in a good direction, the spring ploughing tax exemption work is proceeding in an orderly manner, and Sophia's secret report in Guannai also mentions that she is in contact with the displaced people in and around the city of Valen. As for Gould, in addition to training his slave fighters on a daily basis, he also served as an officer in an armaments department in the county town of Sadland. It seems that all day long shouting about the reason for "drill", the three hundred private troops under Joseph were moved everywhere in the territory of Sadland.

And one of Yaroo's flag regiments was also secretly dispatched to the border town on the grounds of maintaining law and order in its subordinate towns.

Just when Joseph was intensively arranging these matters, half a month had already arrived. Jose didn't come forward himself, so it was too eye-catching, the deal between the Northwest Army and the steppe people was a hidden matter, and it was best for him to maintain a posture of "inadvertently breaking this matter"!

Although he is ready to eat black and black, but this kind of thing is still done as clean as possible, if the Northwest Army finds any clues, it is not what Jose wants to see.
