"You've been getting close to the eldest princess lately?"

Jiang family, Jiang Wu said to Jiang Cheng, Jiang Cheng ran to the princess's mansion for several days, which naturally attracted the attention of some people.

"Yes"

"The eldest princess is not the right person, she is a woman after all"

"The eldest brother should not underestimate women, the eldest princess has her advantages, and the royal family is born to suppress the nobles"

"I can solve it over there."

"Let's come, the eldest brother asks the people above, the price to pay is very large, I cooperate with the eldest princess, and I can still benefit"

"Profit?"

"Yes, I work with her in business"

"You, forget it, just toss it, just be careful"

Jiang Wu sighed, in fact, he hadn't solved the matter on Uncle Xinliang's side yet, he had already begged the adults above, but the adults above did not agree to stand up for him, because it was not worth it, and now was not the time to fight with Xungui.

"Does this have any effect on my eldest brother?"

"A little bit, the above is quite dissatisfied with you, the two forces on our brother are not good after all"

"Eggs can't be put in one basket, not to mention that those adults and the eldest princess are not hostile, you can explain clearly"

"Besides, since you chose the eldest princess, don't change the court casually, it's better for the two brothers to choose one of them."

"Yes"

"There is a chance for the eldest princess to recommend you to the Immortal Pavilion, if you can enter the Immortal Gate, it will be the greatest guarantee for the Jiang family."

Jiang Wu said, the Immortal Gate is the ultimate goal of the ministers, Jiang Wu stammered those ministers, and he was also thinking about this, but the eldest princess could also do it, she was the one who asked the Immortal Pavilion to be second only to the dean.

Jiang Cheng didn't say much, he wouldn't easily expose the matter of asking the Immortal Pavilion, and if he wanted to get a place from the eldest princess, the price was definitely not small, and he didn't have a chance.

The geographical scope of Yongzhou is very large, not only including Yongdu City, but also more than 20 counties, Yongdu City is followed by Liaozhou and Beizhou two state capitals to the north, Yongzhou to the west, Jiangzhou to the south, and the sea to the east.

And Yongzhou is also the most serious area of land annexation in the Great Wei Dynasty, there is no one, when the Great Wei Dynasty was founded, it was divided into about three million acres of fertile land and millions of acres of mountains and forests as imperial fields, and in the past 60 years, the nobles and ministers of Yongdu City are also constantly annexing the land, Yongzhou is not to mention ordinary farmers, even small landlords can not survive, and the existing landlords are all the families of some ministers and nobles.

Only in the barren lands of the mountains were a few yeoman farmers, and the rest were reduced to servants, farming for the royal family and noble ministers.

Li Hongsleeve is the first daughter of the emperor, quite favored, coupled with her outstanding talent, let her worship in the Xianmen year, the emperor rewarded her with 1,000 acres of fertile land and 3,000 acres of mountain forest, located in a town in Jiangyuan County, the whole town has become Li Hongsleeve's imperial village.

"My lord, my lord, spare my life..."

"Let's drag it out"

In the eldest princess's imperial village, several village heads were desperately kowtowing, a man dressed as a scholar waved his hand, and the guards dragged them all down.

"It's not a pity to die if you eat something outside the grill"

The other person snorted coldly, he didn't have any mercy for these village heads, and what awaited them would only be death.

Huangzhuang is the royal family's farmland, they don't need to pay taxes, they only need to provide food, clothing, housing and transportation for the royal family, and the eldest princess's mansion is not too many, it can be easily solved, it stands to reason, the maids here should live better than other maids, but these village heads are very greedy, and the property they keep every year is better than the one handed over.

Although the eldest princess has these lands, she has never been to Zhuangtian, and she doesn't know how much money these moths are greedy for, or the eldest princess sent someone to investigate after Jiang Cheng proposed a plan.

"Master Jiang, the head of the village has been cleaned up, and their belongings will be counted in the next few days, when will we start?"

"In a hurry, the plan has to come step by step"

"Master Jiang, please speak"

"Start with Huangzhuang, buy a large number of eggs and hens, hatch chicks, and explore artificial incubation technology, wait until the chicks hatch out, and then distribute them to the helpers, and at the same time send people to explore the types of chick food and raising methods, take the chicks as an example, expand to the rest of the livestock, first take Huangzhuang as an example, with successful examples, others will believe us"

Jiang Cheng replied that the plan he proposed was actually very simple, but it was very difficult to implement, because Jiang Cheng did not know before that there were too few yeoman farmers in Yongzhou, and they were generally renting the landlord's land, and if they were allowed to directly change to cash crops, they would definitely not dare, because there was no guarantee, what if they did not live or could not sell the price when they were planted, they would starve to death the next year.

Therefore, Jiang Cheng has to use the eldest princess's imperial village as a model to establish credibility before he can expand in the future.

"Master Jiang, this speed is too slow"

One person said that they are not sincere in helping the poor, but here to make political achievements, so they want to make political achievements faster.

"Mr. Liu, everything is in a hurry"

"No hurry, no hurry"

"Then do it in multiple ways, and then you send someone to investigate the homesteaders and semi-homeless farmers within a radius of two hundred miles, that is, they have their own land, and I'm afraid that the kind of pure servants can't help them now."

Jiang Cheng replied that those pure domestic servants did not have their own means of production, and they could not start or help, only homesteaders and semi-homeless farmers could do it, and now they were the target of their help.

"Okay, just as Master Jiang said"

The man nodded, and then asked Jiang Cheng to rest, but Jiang Cheng said that he wanted to go to the field to have a look, and he also arranged for someone to be a guide.

"Mr. Liu, according to what Jiang Cheng said, every three or five years, I'm afraid there is no effect."

A guard waited until Jiang Cheng left and said to Liu Qing that Liu Qing was a very important adviser under Li Hongsleeve, and this time Jiang Cheng proposed a poverty alleviation plan that he was responsible for implementing.

"I know, so I can't do what he says"

"What does Mr. Liu mean?"

"Apportionment, the people are ignorant and ignorant, even if you are good to them, they don't know, it's too slow to influence them, just apportionment directly, more than 500 households in Huangzhuang, according to the population of each household, one person and five chickens, take it back after half a year, give money, these money, no one can reach out, whoever stretches out my hand I cut whose hand"

Liu Qing replied, apportionment is the fastest means, no matter who the Huangzhuang is, he has to raise it, and he decided to give money, anyone can be greedy for this money, this is a major event for the eldest princess to do political achievements.

"Mr. Liu is wise, Najiang-sama's plan"

"As it goes, he will do whatever he says, the more people we help the poor, the higher the prestige of the eldest princess, and in two or three years, we will make Yongzhou full of people who have received the favor of the eldest princess."

"Yes, then I'll arrange it"

"As soon as possible, the sooner the better"

Liu Qing replied that in order to produce results as soon as possible, it is natural that the sooner the better.

Jiang Cheng walked on the land of the eldest princess Huangzhuang, and saw many farmers plowing the fields, they were about to start spring ploughing, some families have ploughing oxen, but more of them use manpower to plough the fields, young and strong men in front of the ox to pull forward, and women or teenagers are supporting the plough behind, which is very difficult.

Jiang Cheng waited in place for a while, and when someone rested, Jiang Cheng stepped forward, Jiang Cheng took the initiative to talk to those people, but those farmers were very restrained, Jiang Cheng glanced at the people who followed behind, let him leave first, and then took out his own kettle to pour water for them.

"It's so sweet, the nobleman's water is filled with honey"

"Yes, put some honey, you can drink it separately, you can replenish your strength"

Jiang Cheng smiled, and then revealed the news, that is, the head of the Huangzhuang has been taken down by him, and the people who oppressed them have been solved.

This made these farmers extremely shocked, and some people couldn't even believe it, but Jiang Cheng was not in a hurry, but continued to chat with them, Jiang Cheng also had some bacon jerky on him, and he tore it hard to share it with everyone.

Eating people with short mouths, this time everyone became much closer to Jiang Cheng, Jiang Cheng began to ask about their life in Huangzhuang, and only through them did they know that Huangzhuang was an independent small kingdom.

The officials in the Huangzhuang will not come quickly, and they don't even have to pay taxes, but there is no difference between the head of the village and the officials to catch quickly, and even the oppression of them is much more ruthless, and they have to pay a lot of things every year.

Not only did they have to pay food, but they also had to pay for chickens, ducks, cattle, sheep, cloth, etc., all of which were used by the eldest princess's mansion, so their lives were poorer and more difficult than those of the servants outside.

Just like ploughing the fields now, the Huangzhuang originally wanted to provide them with ploughing oxen, but the head of the village only provided them for free to their henchmen, and ordinary servants wanted to use ploughing oxen, so they had to pay money, otherwise they would plough the fields themselves.

The strength of the ox is great, and it can be ploughed, and the harvest will be better, and when the harvest is good, there will be money to bribe the head of the village, so as to form a cycle, that is, the poor will be poorer.

And when it comes to the sins of the head of the village, it is three days and three nights that can not be finished, bribes are just the most insignificant thing, they have done more evil things, including bullying men and women, etc., the most afraid of the maid is that their daughters are beautiful, and they will be harmed by those village heads, either occupied by them or given to the steward of the eldest princess's mansion to enjoy.

Jiang Cheng also asked them why they didn't run, and the answer they got was that they couldn't run, because there were a number of fields nearby, there were too many helpers, you ran away, there was no place to farm, what would they eat if they didn't farm, they wouldn't know anything but farming.

The servants outside are not happy, it is better to meet the landlords with good hearts, if they are evil, it is even worse, in addition to paying rent, they also have to pay taxes from the court, double oppression, they only need to be oppressed by the first layer of the village here.

"This farmer's investigation can't go on, otherwise I'm afraid I'll go to extremes"

Those peasant households had limited rest time, chatted for a while and then continued to work, Jiang Cheng stood up and shook his head, he couldn't listen to it anymore, if he continued like this, he would also become a proletarian, but in Dawei, this is undoubtedly an act of looking for death, Jiang Cheng also needs to protect himself.
