Not only in terms of agricultural tax subsidies, but the Liaodong Affairs Department of the Ming Dynasty even mobilized a number of construction teams composed of displaced people from the Guannei mentioned earlier, including masons and carpenters, to rebuild houses for all the Han people who returned to their hometowns.

Although the standard of each house is not particularly high, it is also a solid red brick and black tile, which is enough for the needs of a family.

In addition, a lot of cement was also deployed, and a cement firing factory was also built in Liaodong to absorb displaced people to work here and provide cement necessary for rebuilding their homes.

From the very beginning of the construction of such houses, they were warmly welcomed by the people, and all the displaced people sang and danced with gratitude.

In addition, sweet potato seedlings were distributed in Liaodong, agricultural tools were uniformly distributed, and even in each village where Han people gathered, ploughing cattle were distributed according to the number of people and cultivated area.

"You don't want any money?"

Wang Laosan was not only surprised, but also shocked in his heart.

"Uh... It doesn't seem to be the case, I heard that these expenses are all given by the Daming Royal Bank, and the first three years are tax-free and rent-free. It's just that all this silver is counted, and it will be returned to the court when life is better in the future. ”

As soon as these words came out, Wang Laosan eased his emotions a little, otherwise I am afraid that Wang Laosan himself would want to go to Houjin for a while, and be a slave for a few days for this purpose.

"Can you afford it?" Wang Laosan still asked.

"Afford it, afford it! I heard that the sweet potato seedlings sent to us by the imperial court are not only drought tolerant, but also have a very large yield, and we can have a good harvest without much care.

When the time comes, when the grain is sold, the money earned does not need to be taxed, and the money can be used to repay the money year by year..."

"Alas! Why can't we catch up with this good thing?"

Wang Laosan was moved, and he admitted that he also wanted to live such a life, but he said that he was exempt from tax and rent.

It's not that he hasn't heard anyone talk about it, and it seems that he has this treatment himself, but when it is time to hand over the grain, Wang Laosan is not sure.

"Yes! I said the third child, don't look at me with envy like this, what is this reconstruction of the Daming Royal Bank said to be called... You can also apply for a loan! ”

Wang Laosan glanced at the man in disbelief, and pointed his finger at himself.

Tremblingly, he said, "Can I too?" ”

The man nodded affirmatively and said, "At first glance, you didn't listen to what the court official who came to our village said before, everyone can apply for this loan according to their own needs...

It's just that unlike us, we can postpone the repayment of this silver during the three-year tax-free and rent-free period.... But it seems like you're going to have to pay it back year by year in the meantime. ”

Wang Laosan hurriedly said: "This is also okay!" That's okay, those boys in my family are almost old enough to start a family, and they have robbed the damn Jiannu of all the food before, and the family has no money at all...

I'm still worried about how these boys will start a family."

"I said... What the are you doing! As long as you can start a family, now there is land everywhere, and your three sons will also be good at doing farm work in the fields when they grow up, are you still worried that you will not have money to marry your son? ”

Touching his head, Wang Laosan laughed.

...

In the days that followed, Wang Laosan from time to time paid attention to the people who came back from the village, and one by one lived in the newly built farmhouse courtyard.

Wang Laosan was very greedy.

Calling his wife and three sons, Wang Laosan decided to hold a family meeting to talk about this matter...

The three sons came the fastest, and his wife had been busy working in the house, Wang Laosan couldn't wait to speak: "Oops! Hurry up and get out! I have something big to announce today. ”

"Boss! You say your business, what do you call me a woman to do, I can decide what..." Wang Laosan's daughter-in-law is famous for being virtuous in the village.

But fortunately, because his daughter-in-law didn't really let the Tartars take him away, otherwise it is estimated that this daughter-in-law would be able to draw a knife and cut herself angrily.

saw that his daughter-in-law did not come out for a long time.

Wang Laosan couldn't help but say to his three sons: "You little rabbit cubs are also about to reach the age of starting a family, Dad now has an idea, discuss it with you." ”

The eldest was a little older, and he was the first to respond: "Dad, you just have to explain what you have." ”

The second child also followed: "That's right! Dad, just tell me if you have anything! ”

"Yes, yes!" The third child is young, and there are still some days before he can become a strong offspring, and he still speaks with a little milk.

Looking at his three sons in front of him, Wang Laosan's eyes were almost slit.

"Good, good! Then Dad said it directly. ”

"Recently, many families in the village have applied for that. Loans. Dad thought, the eldest and the second are also about to reach the age of starting a family, and they are going to borrow some money to build the house first."

Wang Laosan's words immediately caused the shock of the three brothers.

"Daddy.. Is this loan reliable? You must know that the original families in our village are all green and yellow, and they did not accept the original gentry's silver... When I got to my own land, it was not enough. ”

"That's it, Daddy! My eldest brother and I are not in a hurry to start a family, don't ruin our family because of this! ”

Wang Laosan nodded, but still said: "This time is different, this is the silver of the imperial court, not only is there basically no interest on the loan, but more importantly, there is no hurry to repay the money, and it can be repaid year by year over the years." ”

"Really?"

"Is there anything else that is good about this? Dad, you weren't coaxed! ”

The words of his second son made Wang Laosan blush, and said: "Is Dad the kind of person who can be deceived casually?" ”

At this time, a word from his youngest son.

made Wang Laosan even more embarrassed.

"Daddy.. You are indeed like.."

"Ahem, ahem! Don't talk about this, what I'm talking about today is whether we borrow this silver or not! Dad also thought about it this year, once he borrowed this money, he would find a way to handle the marriage between the two of you in the winter, and then he would be able to live your life separately. ”

"Daddy.. If it's true. I'm okay with that, look at Big Brother! The second child thought that he was about to marry a daughter-in-law, but he was still a little shy, pointed at the eldest brother, and pushed the spearhead over.

"Done! Dad, when the time comes, our brothers will repay the silver with you, I heard that a lot of new workshops have been opened in the county recently, and they are recruiting workers. ”

Compared with the second child, the eldest of his own family is worthy of being the eldest son, and he obviously thinks further, Wang Laosan looked at his three sons, smiled and nodded.

"Okay! Then this matter is decided! ”
