"Yuzi?"

Just over a month after the promulgation of the 'Edict on Immigrating to North Korea', Liu Ying, who received the news in Weiyang Palace, was taken aback by this group that seemed to appear out of thin air!

Even Prime Minister Cao Shen, who entered the palace to report the matter, was full of surprise and shock in his words.

"Yes."

"Since His Majesty issued an edict to persuade the landless people to move to Korea, there are no less than a million people in all parts of the world!"

"Among them, especially Qi, Chu, Huainan and other places are important; Even in Guanzhong, there are also 'remnants' who have been invited to move to North Korea, no less than 200,000 people······"

With a solemn face, Cao Shen couldn't help but sit up straighter, and his eyebrows were full of solemnity as if a big war was imminent.

On the royal steps, the young son of heaven let out a long sigh after a long period of distraction.

"Yu Zi ······"

"Yu Zi ·········"

With a wooden expression, Liu Ying couldn't help but smile bitterly and lowered her head, thinking to herself.

Remnant son, as the name suggests: extra children.

Superfluous sons, to be exact.

If you want to understand what kind of group the 'Yuzi' is, you have to mention a revolutionary decree formulated after the establishment of the Han Dynasty.

- Separate Household Order.

After the establishment of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Taizu Gao Liu Bang was deeply aware that for the centralized government based on the county system, the biggest unstable factor was the local powerful forces.

In order to curb this force, Liu Bang also issued a series of highly targeted legal regulations at the beginning of the establishment of the Han Dynasty.

First of all, it is naturally the original version of 'Ka leek', which is well-known in ancient and modern China and abroad, and is well known to later generations: the Lingyi system.

That is, since the day of the succession of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, the construction of the imperial tomb has begun, and at the same time, the mausoleum near the imperial tomb will also be built at the same time, or even earlier.

After the construction of Lingyi is completed, it is once a year, and indefinitely, 'forcibly relocate the world's heroes into the customs to realize the country'.

To put it bluntly, in the name of 'keeping a spiritual watch for the Son of Heaven', the local Haoqiang, as well as the big clans that may develop into Haoqiang, are forcibly relocated to Guanzhong and at the feet of the Son of Heaven, so as to eliminate the possibility of any big family developing into Haoqiang, Gate Valve, and even a family.

With the Lingyi system, the possibility of the evolution of the big clan to the gate valve and the family is curbed, so how did the Han family curb the evolution from a small family to a large clan?

The answer is that revolutionary decree: the Separate Household Order.

Historically, the Separate Household Order, also known as the 'Gaozu Shi Fu Law', was included in the Han Laws and was a separate article for the Fu Laws;

In this decree, Emperor Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty Taizu Gao stipulated that whether it is an ordinary peasant family, or a meritorious marquis of the Yuan, a courtier or a nobleman, after the direct male bloodline of the head of the household reaches the age of 'Shi Fu', that is, the legal tax age of seventeen years old, the family must be forcibly divided.

In the words of later generations, it is to take out the household registration book separately and become the head of the household himself.

But there is also a drawback to this 'separation' model.

- Since it is to be divided, the bulk of the family property must be owned by the eldest son and the eldest son who have the right to inherit;

In addition, groups with direct inheritance rights, such as the eldest son and the eldest son, are not included in the 'Separate Household Order'.

In this way, the problem arises.

As the head of the family, I shoulder the sacred mission of the continuation of the family and the prosperity of the ancestral hall, so I must ensure that the wealth accumulated in my area is handed over to the heir, that is, the eldest son, to the greatest extent possible.

And for those concubines and young sons who will be separated from each other and will be strangers after three generations, 'I' am not willing to give them too much property.

Therefore, there is a high probability that 'I' will leave all the fixed assets such as fields, houses, and shops, at least most of them, to the eldest son, and only give the younger sons some money and food, so that they can find their own way out.

Under such a behavioral logic, the group of 'remnants' came into being.

Yu Zi, never divided into family background, origin, whether it is the son of a farmer, the son of a businessman, or the queen of a powerful family, as long as he is 'neither a grandson nor a long', he will inevitably usher in the day when he will become a 'Yu Zi'.

The only difference is that the 'surplus son' from a peasant family may spend all the money given to him by his parents in a short period of time, and then live on the streets and become a 'ranger';

The 'remaining son' who was born in a businessman will get a relatively large amount of 'family division fee' from his father, and then use this as the capital to set up his own business and start a business with difficulty;

As for the children of Haoqiang and nobles, they are much luckier than the first two.

- After being a high-ranking family, even if these people are 'remnants', there is a high probability that they will be able to get a small part of the family's real estate, as well as a considerable amount of money;

Therefore, the choice of these people is undoubtedly much wider than that of the first two.

If you have the ability, you can use the money given by your father to do business, and you can get rich;

or buy an official and become a 'gentleman' to seek a career;

Or, use the money to buy hundreds or thousands of acres of land, and then find some tenant farmers and become a small landlord;

If you don't have the ability, you can lie flat on the spot, sit and eat, and live a carefree life.

And these three types of 'remnant' groups are all 'unstable factors' that the Han family strictly guards and can't be wiped out.

- Ranger, Merchant, and: Quasi-Haoqiang!

That's right.

These 'remnant sons' from famous families are the groups with the most potential to become local heroes.

Whether these people are doing business, annexing land, or 'sitting on the mountain', they will pose a threat to the rule of the Han family.

The most important thing is that these 'second generations' who are born in famous families and have broad horizons can exert destructive power that is often not comparable to that of farmers and businessmen······

Therefore, in fact, the Lingyi system and the order of dividing households pursued by the Han family are essentially aimed at these 'second generations' who are from famous families and have huge social resources.

First of all, they were divided into separate households, and these high doors were pulled out of the family's protection, so that they were 'alone';

After that, there was the Lingyi system, which moved those thorns who showed 'ambition' into Guanzhong and forcibly suppressed them with imperial power;

At the same time, supplemented by the all-round and undead end of the social atmosphere of hatred and contempt for merchants, these social instability factors of the feudal era were all strangled in the cradle.

But in the past, for the three groups of rangers, merchants, and Haoqiang, the Han family did not have the ability to 'wipe them all'.

- Haoqiang's children can be suppressed with the 'Separate Household Order' and 'Lingyi System';

- After the merchants, they despised and suppressed the entire social atmosphere;

However, the ranger group has never been effectively governed, even if all the rangers are killed and slaughtered, this group will always spring up like mushrooms after a rain and 'make a comeback' in a very short period of time.

In response to this question, Liu Ying also thought: What is the essence of the rangers?

And today, Liu Yingcai finally found the answer to this question.

- The essence of the rangers is those who come from poor families and peasant households, and are poor and destitute after 'separating their families', and their lives are unsustainable, so they can only lick the blood from the knife's edge.

The rangers can be killed and banned, but as long as the 'Yuzi' group does not disappear, the rangers will never completely disappear into the Han world.

But then again: it's one thing to recognize things for what they are, and it's another thing to solve them effectively.

As for the essence of the 'rangers', Liu Ying, who has only been on the throne for only a few years, can see that Liu Bang, the former emperor who is the founder of the country, can't see through the key here?

- You must know that the former emperor Liu Bang himself is a 'land snake' who is both righteous and evil!

is also a 'Yu Zi', I am afraid that Liu Bang's understanding of this matter is far more specific and comprehensive than Liu Ying's.

So now that he knows, why didn't Liu Bang set out to solve this matter?

Is it because you don't like it?

The answer is obviously not as simple as it seems.

The Han family can go through the Lingyi system and divide the household order into two prongs, and strengthen the local Haoqiang and quasi-Haoqiang to Guanzhong, and the strong mobilization ability is one thing;

But the main reason is that there are enough of them because of this group;

Let's just say that a county land, how many heroes can be produced?

How many landlords can there be in a township?

As for the merchant group, although the number is far higher than that of the powerful and quasi-powerful groups, it is not difficult to carry out 'social oppression' on this group because of the universal values of the past few hundred years.

However, the ranger group represents the 'peasant remnants' group from the vast number of low-level people, and its number covers almost every peasant family in the world!

That is: as long as the farmer has two or more sons, then in the future, the farmer will inevitably have more sons!

The surplus children of these peasant families have neither access to production tools such as fields and houses, nor considerable start-up capital;

In the vast majority of cases, these people can only take 10 days and half a month's rations and living expenses, and then say goodbye to their parents and 'separate households' to fend for themselves.

In this case, it is obviously not a difficult thing to prevent the group of 'surplus sons' from appearing among the common people.

In fact, the restrictive targets of the Separate Household Order have always been the powerful and the noble.

Because only these people will not care about the property being divided among their sons, and have the confidence that 'even if my property is divided equally among my ten sons, it will be the birth of ten new heroes'.

On the contrary, the lower-level peasant households divide their families and concentrate their assets as much as possible for their eldest sons, which is mostly driven by subjective will.

In this case, if there is no 'surplus' among the peasant households, the only way is to let the peasant households also have the confidence of being strong and strong, and 'separating the family is also from a rich family into several rich people'.

Obviously, this goal, even in the new era of later generations, is far from being achieved.

Therefore, the 'surplus children' are mostly due to the current situation of peasant households, which cannot be solved theoretically;

To be precise, unless family planning is implemented and each family is limited to one child or one son, the remnant group of children from peasant households will never disappear.

In the past, the attention of the Han court was never on 'how to eliminate the remaining sons', but on 'how to eliminate the remaining sons of the peasant households and inexplicably become rangers'.

It's just that in the past, and even in the next few hundred years of history, this question has never been able to get a reasonable answer.

But today, when Cao Shen took the report that "there are more than a million children in the world who have signed up and expressed their willingness to immigrate to North Korea", when he went to Weiyang Palace to find Liu Ying, Liu Ying unexpectedly found that the method of eliminating the ranger group seemed to have been placed in front of him······

Why did the remnants of the peasant families become rangers after they 'split their families'?

The answer is: as long as you can eat a full stomach in a serious way, no one will want to go to the brown club!

What drove these simple and kind 'remnant sons' from peasant families to become rangers has never been the slogan of 'the great man, for the country and the people', but a very real problem: if you don't mix with rangers, you can't eat enough.

In the past, if someone told Liu Ying that as long as the rest of the people in the world could be fed, the ranger would disappear, then Liu Ying would definitely spit on that person while he was disdainful.

- Do you need to talk about this?

- If I really have the ability to 'feed millions of people on the spot', Mao Dun would have come to Chang'an a long time ago to polish my boots!

But now, the answer to the ranger's question is extremely plain and straightforward in front of Liu Ying.

Employment!

The remnants of the peasant family need employment!

Employment avenues other than Ranger are needed to feed this group!

In this era, the most 'promising' industry is nothing more than opening up 100 acres of barren land and cultivating it for generations······

"More than a million children ······"

"It should be more than that!"

"North Korea doesn't need so many immigrants in a short period of time."

Thinking to herself, when Liu Ying raised her head again, her eyes were full of joy.

But seeing that under the imperial steps, Cao Shen was in a posture like facing a great enemy, like the iron hooves of the Huns, who had stepped outside Chang'an City?

"Prime Minister······

Subconsciously wanted to let out a soft snort, and when he came back to his senses, Liu Ying also hurriedly stopped, and did not destroy the process of Cao Shen and the 'air battle of wits and courage'.

——In the cognition of the vast majority of officials in the Han Dynasty today, Yu Zi is often directly equated with 'Ranger'.

Especially those 'remnants' who have nothing and can't find three or five copper coins in their pockets will basically be regarded as an unstable factor of 'the next second, the next second, he will go to the astringent meeting'.

In Cao Shen's eyes, there are more than a million sons in the world, which is equivalent to millions of rangers!

In today's Han Dynasty, with a population of only about 20 million, a brown society with a total population of 5% suddenly appeared, so it is no wonder that Cao Shen is like a great enemy.

However, Liu Ying's attention has quietly shifted from the matter of 'Yuzi' and even 'immigration to North Korea' to 'immigration border pass'.

"On the matter of cultivating Korea, the prime minister is in the court and the central government, how is the business going?"

Asking a question leisurely, Liu Ying looked at Cao Shen's gaze, and couldn't help but bring a touch of pride.

- The tun cultivation system and the corps system can be regarded as one of the few contributions that Liu Ying's identity can make to the Han family today······
