Chapter 240

Do what you think.

It's spring, and everything is thriving.

Ying Lili and two senior brothers visited the city and found several experienced old farmers.

She told a few people about the sapling seeds she had obtained from the Western Regions according to the characteristics in her memory.

Then he gave them the seedlings and asked them to go back and discuss them.

"General, give us such an important seedling, in case we spoil ......"

Ying Lili waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's really bad, there is no way, it's a big deal, let's go to the Western Regions again, now we are not afraid of the countries of the Western Regions." ”

"And I believe in the farming experience of several old men, and there is a treasure in the family."

"To succeed, you need to learn from countless failures, and no one can succeed casually."

gave a few of them reassurance, and discussed with a few old men about making manure.

Several of them listened very carefully, and they all kept it firmly in mind, and they were ready to study it themselves when they went back.

Ying Lili hates himself for being a liberal arts student, if he is a science student, can he even get chemical fertilizer?

It's a pity that I can only think about it.

The old man went back.

They're fast, and there's a lot to do.

Wang Ping also wanted to make some political achievements, but the basic plate of Lieshan City was too bad.

The past two years have been better.

The Western Frontier Army did not come to Lieshan City again to loot grain and grass.

Maybe it's because of the general's presence, Your Majesty's supply of food and grass is very abundant?

However, in correspondence with old acquaintances who worked in Kyoto, they learned that the ration of grain and grass was no different from that of previous years.

This also shows that when the king of Zhennan was in charge of the western army, the grain and grass given by the imperial court was sufficient.

It's just that King Zhennan is too greedy.

Now, Burning Mountain City can finally take a break.

**

There are basically no rich families in Lieshan City.

But anyone who has a little money, who wants to live in the border city, is eager to move to other prosperous state capitals in Dazhao.

After all, there is no telling when the army of the Western Regions will come and they will be killed and looted.

As a result, no one has a large area of land in their hands.

Ying Lili thought about whether it was possible to package the production to the household with the help of the favorable time and place here.

After all, outside Lieshan City, there are too many vacant and barren fields.

discussed with the two senior brothers, and wrote a letter to Rong Qingzhang.

Twenty days later, Ying Lili, who was in the barracks, received a letter from Kyoto.

In the letter, Rong Qingzhang gave her the right to make full decisions.

She returned to Lieshan City with the letter and the two senior brothers.

After discussing his ideas with Wang Ping, Wang Ping felt that it was feasible.

When you have land, you have roots.

And with roots, the local people can be deeply rooted here to have children.

The population of Lieshan City is really too small and too small.

Not even more populous than a county in other state capitals.

Ying Lili and the three of them have formulated a detailed land transfer policy, and these three people put forward some ideas from time to time, which can be said to be very suitable for the current environment.

Lieshan City includes the land of the villages under the county seat, and the main title deeds are in the hands of the state capital yamen, and the yamen only has the right to supervise, not the right to buy and sell, and these land deeds are still in the hands of the imperial court in the final analysis.

The village chiefs of villages and towns are all attached to the title deeds, which are prepared for them to better coordinate with the local people.

In the end, because the population of Lieshan City was too small and the area was vast, each person could be allocated three acres of land, so there was still more than half of the cultivated land that there was not enough people to cultivate.

But in the face of the reality of this primitive labor force, no matter how much land they have, they can't wait.

Three acres of land, minus the annual grain tax of 20%, the rest belongs to the people themselves.

At the same time, a grain store led by the state capital yamen was established in Lieshan City.

No one is allowed to raise the price of grain under any circumstances, otherwise if they are reported, they will be disqualified from being a grain merchant and fined, or they will face prison time and a raid on their home.

Well, this is what the two senior brothers came up with.

Grain is the basic plate of a country, and it must not collapse, otherwise it will endanger the stability of the entire country.

Equivalent to treason.

No one can afford to be charged.

"Girl......"

A gray-haired old man looked at Ying Lili.

"This field is not our own?"

The old man was trembling, his eyes red and bloodshot.

It should be that I didn't rest well after hearing the news.

Ying Lili stepped forward to help the person sit down, and said with a smile: "Uncle, the field is still yours, and every time there is one more person in the family in the future, you will be able to share three acres of land." Moreover, all the cultivated land in Lieshan City is in the hands of His Majesty, if anyone dares to attack the idea of your field, it is to dig out His Majesty's money bag, which is a great crime of rebellion. ”

"Of course, you don't have to plant farmland for nothing, and you need to pay 20% of the tax every year."

"These two are mainly for the soldiers at the border gates, after all, it is their bloody struggle that can protect our safety, isn't it."

The old man listened a little flurry and said, "Two percent? ”

"Yes, twenty percent, it's considered ground rent."

Ying Lili nodded.

The old man touched, "No one dares to rob our arable land?" ”

A man next to him laughed and said: "Uncle, didn't you listen to the general, our landlord is Your Majesty, who dares to rob Your Majesty's things." ”

The old man nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, no one dares to rob His Majesty's arable land, so how long can we plant?" ”

Ying Lili smiled: "When you die, how many people are in my father-in-law's family?" ”

The old man smiled: "Ouch, this is a lot, with grandchildren, twenty younger." ”

These people are not a small amount of food.

Ying Lili looked at the household registration of the old man's family and said with a smile: "Seventeen people, a total of fifty-one acres of cultivated land, of which you can get fifteen acres of fertile land, fifteen acres of medium fields, and twenty-one acres of end-class fields." ”

"The government will regularly send people down to explain to you the specific grain tax, how much you need to pay every year, and what you need to pay, you will soon be able to figure it out."

"You can plant some other things in this field, and the government will go down to tell you if there is progress here."

The old man waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, the beans are fertilised, and we all plant beans in the last field, and we can slowly turn it into fertile land after a few years." ”

Ying Lili heard this and gave a thumbs up, "The old saying is true, if there is an old man in the family, if there is a bag, you have to lead the villagers to plant the cultivated land well." Beans are also a good thing, shipped to other state capitals, I don't have to worry about selling, I can eat more tofu and drink soybean juice in the future. ”

Waves of people came and went, and those who left were overjoyed with the deed.

In about half a month, 20,000 people in the entire territory of Lieshan City got their own fields.

For this reason, Ying Lili also went to the people with his two senior brothers and the prefect Wang's mansion.

There are a lot of busy figures in the fields.

When you meet someone who is familiar with each other, you will stop and chat a few words to familiarize yourself with the knowledge of cultivated land.

They will also be pulled by the enthusiastic villagers to drink a bowl of sweet water.
