The Li of the Qin State, which is equivalent to the residential community of later generations, is a closed structure.

Each of them is surrounded by "inner walls", which are about seven feet high, about the same height as the average adult man.

There is a door in the wall, which is guarded by a special prison gate.

This prison door is equivalent to the security guard of later generations, and his daily work is to get up in the morning to open the door and close the door at night, and he is also responsible for fire prevention and theft prevention, but this work is not easy.

Qin law stipulates that if the inner door is burned by fire, he will be fined a shield.

When you enter the inner gate, there is a passage with a fixed width, called the alley. There are dwellings on each side of the roadway, arranged in a long strip.

The one on the left side of the alley is called Lu Zuo, and the poor live there.

The one on the right is on the right, where the rich live.

The residence that Zhao Tuo was assigned to was in the depths of Luyou, which was a mansion of a public scholar.

He opened the door of the house with the key (key) given by Rideni and walked in with him.

The mansion is large, and the courtyard walls contain not only the houses where you live, but also a large courtyard outside.

More than twenty mulberry trees were planted in the open space of the courtyard, and their bare branches were spreading to welcome the arrival of the new owner, when a gust of wind blew, rolling up the thick fallen leaves on the ground and flying in the air.

There was a well in the clearing, and a collapsed barn not far away.

There is a drainage pipe in the corner of the yard that is used to drain sewage, but it has long been blocked.

Although the house in the middle did not collapse like a barn, it also looked in disrepair because the original owner was punished to be a slave and was left untended to be in disrepair, and the earthen walls were cracked in the wind and rain, and the doors were covered with cobwebs and dust.

Although it looked dilapidated at a glance, Zhao Tuo was very satisfied.

Here, he finally has a home, no longer rootless, drifting everywhere.

Heng Yi behind him looked at the residence blankly.

Without hesitation, Zhao Tuo and Heng immediately started to clean up this long-abandoned residence.

By the afternoon, the two of them had finally cleaned the house, which was still very shabby, but barely habitable.

As long as you add some furniture, keep a yellow dog in the front yard, and add two pigs in the back of the house, and the feeling of a home will be there immediately.

Zhao Tuo even had an idea in his heart to settle down and live an ordinary life.

But this idea just popped up and was directly extinguished by him.

Impossible.

In such an era, it is impossible for ordinary people to live!

Not to mention the great revival of conscription after reunification, countless people rushed for their lives. Let's just say that if Zhao Tuo doesn't change this era and everything develops according to the original history, then in the chaotic era of the end of Qin twenty years later, the overlord will personally plow the entire Guanzhong.

Burning Xianyang, burning, killing and plundering, which Qin people ran away?

So Zhao Tuo must climb up while there is still time to climb up and work hard.

Only by climbing higher and holding more power can he have the ability to change history and gain a glimmer of life in the troubled times in the future, which is why he wants to enlist in the army and make meritorious contributions.

When Zhao Tuo and Heng finished cleaning the house, the white-bearded Lidian came again.

This time, he was accompanied by Tanori, who was in charge of farming.

This Tian Dian has a knighthood, and his right bun is red, which is not the same as the brown scarf on Zhao Tuo's head. He glanced at Zhao Tuo and Heng, looking businesslike: "Follow me to see Tian." ”

"Yui"

Zhao Tuo was slightly excited, this is going to divide the field!

After all, it is the first piece of land that I own in this era, and this is my own land!

But Zhao Tuo's excitement didn't last long, because he and Heng followed Tian Dian out of the inner wall, shuttled through a large area of farmland for a long time, and walked nearly three miles before they saw the field assigned to him near the woodland.

It's too big!

Qin system, one hectare and one hundred acres.

Zhao Tuo settled down successfully, and according to the Qin State's policy of benefiting the people, he was able to get a hectare of land, and after upgrading to the title of duke, he was rewarded with another hectare of land, which added up to two hundred acres!

What is this concept?

Originally, according to the weekly system, one acre of land was 1 step wide and 100 steps long.

However, when Shang Ying changed the law, he believed that "with one husband's spare strength, the geographical advantage is inexhaustible, so he restructured 240 steps into mu, and 100 mu for one husband." ”

One acre in the Qin Dynasty became 240 steps long.

Zhao Tuo calculated that the step of this era was six feet long, which was about 1.38 meters in later generations. The area of one acre of land is almost 457.056 square meters.

And 100 acres is 45,705 square meters, and Zhao Tuo has 200 acres of land, isn't it 91,410 square meters!

Zhao Tuo's eyes began to dizzy again, if you add the land that Heng has shared, the large area of land owned by the two of them is terrifying, it is more than 100,000 square meters!

He was still only a duke, and if the title continued to rise, he would get 45,000 square meters of land for each promotion...... It's horrible!

But soon, under Tian Dian's popularization of the law, Zhao Tuo's hot heart gradually cooled down again.

So much land is not for you to be white, you have to pay taxes.

Qin's tax system consisted of land rents and drafts levied on the basis of the number of acres of land.

and the money and endowment according to the capitation.

Finally, every man of Fu nationality had to serve one month of conscription every year.

After all, if an ordinary family is digging in the field, most of the harvest will be taken away, and there will not be much savings left in a year, let alone if they want to make a fortune by farming.

"It's still not good productivity, there are no chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and there is no advanced technology, and the yield per mu is too low. In addition, the environment is not very stable, and the future of farming in this era is not very large. ”

Zhao Tuo soon lost the mind of farming, although the farmland in front of him was large, he had no idea of plowing the field himself.

On the contrary, the eyes of the sideways looked brightly, the Zhao country where he was located had been in war for many years, coupled with the serious land annexation, how could he have the opportunity to get so many fields.

After sending Tian Dian away, Zhao Tuo and Heng returned to the house in Chaoyang.

Along the way, all the residents on the road looked at them curiously, but because the two had just settled here, no one took the initiative to greet them before they got acquainted, so the uncle of the inner gate who guarded the inner door reminded them of the opening and closing times, so that they should not run around at night.

Heng Ben also divided a small mansion in Luzuo, but this guy now considers himself Zhao Tuo's servant, and voluntarily lives here with Zhao Tuo, following him day and night.

Zhao Tuo was also willing to talk to multiple people, so he agreed.

At night, because of the tossing and turning of the day, Heng has slept in the hut.

Zhao Tuo couldn't sleep, he walked in the courtyard in front of the house, looking at the half-round waning moon in the sky, and there was a flame burning in his eyes.

"The farmhouse is good, but it's not for me. Now we should take advantage of the opportunity of Qin's annihilation of the Six Kingdoms to win military merits, so that we can have the ability to speak in the future. It's just that I don't know when King Qin will send troops to destroy Yan? ”

Zhao Tuo's wait didn't last long.

A few days later.

King Langwei, who had a one-sided relationship, left his relatives and went to Chaoyang, and he brought the king's life.

Zhao Tuo entered the palace and met the king of Qin.
