Chapter 506: The Emperor Has a Way to Make Money: Eat the Big Households into Extinct Households!

Wei Xiang sneered before continuing to ask for the price.

"It's easy for you to wait, and the official told you that the five million money will be accepted by the official today."

After Wei Xiang said this, Wang Haoqian and the others were immediately overjoyed, and immediately bowed their heads and thanked Wei Xiang for letting them live.

But before their knees could bend down, the words that came out of Wei Xiang's heel made them feel a chill again.

"But this money is not a bribe for the official, but a stolen money handed over to the Captain of Shui Heng!"

"You and others openly bribed the cabinet scholars, the amount is huge, shocking, since it is stolen money, it should naturally be returned to the Captain of the Shui Heng for disposal, as for you and the others, ......"

"One by one, they already know that they are guilty, and they shout injustices again and again, but in fact they don't repent, it seems that they want to go to prison in the county prison to eat!"

When Wang Haoqian and the others heard this, they were stunned for a moment, and finally saw the true face of Wei Xiang, a cool official.

They knew they had once again fallen into a trap full of bamboo thorns.

These people didn't dare to have any luck and extravagant hopes, and as soon as their bones were soft, they immediately knelt down again, and their heads were paused.

The most daring and cunning people, for fear of being caught red-handed and taken to the county prison, were in a hurry, and they used too much force and swollen their foreheads.

Wei Xiang looked at them coldly, full of ugliness, without the slightest pity.

Relying on the money in their hands, they don't know how many officials like Han Buxian have been bought, and they don't know how many dirty things they have done.

Having money can not only make ghosts push ghosts, but sometimes it can even make ghosts push ghosts.

After a long time, Wei Xiang finally got bored and planned to end today's "farce".

He coldly made a few people stand up and lined up in the hall.

"This five million money is not enough, the nine families of the nine families made up 30 million yuan, and all of them were donated to Captain Shuiheng for the bereavement of the disabled soldiers of the Han Army!"

"If you can do this, this official can go to the county magistrate to forgive your sins and let your family go to Pingling County safely."

"Thirty, thirty million?"

Everyone was stunned, and seemed to be a little unwilling.

"If you think that 30 million is too much, you can think about it slowly, but if you go out of this door today, Chang Yilang will arrive later, and you must know whether your family can be saved."

Compared with the 30 million money, all the family members are more important, these smart and cunning people can naturally understand, and after a period of heartache, they can only nod in the end.

"There are also your farms, regardless of fat or thin, they are priced at 100 yuan per mu, and the price cannot be changed!"

"This ......," Wang Haoqian wanted to argue again.

But Wei Xiang didn't give him a chance to finish, but turned around with his sleeves and no longer looked at these people with his hands behind his back.

The straight back made the meaning very clear, and there was no room for negotiation in this matter.

"We are willing to obey the order, and I hope that Wei Ge Lao will speak well to the county officials......" A group of heroes looked at each other, sighed repeatedly, and finally swallowed this loss.

"Well, the official is busy, so I won't send it to you."

"No......"

The heroes left the main hall of Henan County Shoufu in despair, and Wei Xiang, who stayed in the hall, was still angry, but he also felt relieved.

At this point, the general trend of the migration of the three counties has been decided, and the matter of the migration of the people of the Kanto County has one less obstacle.

Next, it depends on how far the Son of Heaven can go in Chang'an.

……

With the living example of the Lu family, there is also the admitter of Wang Haoqian and others.

The matter of moving a million families to Chang'an City has become much easier.

Under the watchful eye of the five thousand Changyi Lang and Yu Lin Lang, no one dared to openly disobey the orders of the migrants.

In the period that followed, it became much easier to settle the family, to price the land, or to sell the land.

The three counties have a total of three or four hundred families with a million families, and the land they occupy has reached 100,000 hectares.

The county magistrates of each county have confirmed the price of these lands, and the prices are between 100 and 300 yuan, regardless of whether they are fat or thin.

In this way, the price of the cheapest acre of land is comparable to the price of a sheep, which can be called low.

Because the price of this field is so fair and cost-effective, the people of the three counties flocked to the door to buy it.

In order to prevent the emergence of new giant families in the process of selling land and purchasing land, Wei Xiang formulated a series of regulations.

First of all, when purchasing land, it is necessary to take the household as a unit, and every person in the household can buy 30 acres of land, and it is not allowed to exceed it.

Secondly, the purchased land shall not be resold within three years and resold within five years, and the price shall not be raised or reduced.

Finally, households with more than 300,000 households are not allowed to buy land this time.

Under the restrictions of these land purchase policies, the land that was already vertical and horizontal was gradually divided into small pieces of land.

The wind of land annexation in the three counties has been greatly alleviated.

The giant family is naturally bitter, but the ordinary people are happy.

In addition to the benefits of the people, of course, the central court also has a lot of benefits.

The first income is the family family that the Lu family was confiscated as much as five or six billion yuan, which is simply a windfall.

The second income is Wang Haoqian's money and food, nine households in Ruoyang County donated 30 million, and dozens of households in three counties donated 500 million.

The third income is the land transaction tax collected by the government when the land is sold, which is at least 100 million dollars in profit.

The fourth income comes from Shuiheng Qianzhuang, and farmers who have no money can only borrow from Shuiheng Qianzhuang in order to buy land, and the interest of that cent adds up to 100 million yuan.

These four immediate benefits alone are more than a billion yuan.

In addition to this, there is a fifth, larger earning.

Because there was too much land sold by the giant families in the three counties, it soon caused a scene of oversupply.

When the deadline for disposing of the farmhouse arrived, many fields that could be sold for 700 yuan per acre on weekdays were sold for only 100 yuan.

And the land, which was originally only sold for one or two hundred yuan, was finally sold for fifty or sixty yuan.

This price is not said to be the three counties, even if you look at the entire Han Dynasty, it is also an unprecedented low price.

However, the time that Wei Xiang gave to the giant family was too short.

Even though it has fallen to such a low price, many farms have not been sold, and there are quite a few left.

In order to avoid the confiscation of their own farmland, the cunning people could only go to the county temple and county government to intercede, hoping that Wei Xiang could give some time to leniency.

When the date is set, it is naturally impossible to forgive, but Lord Wei Xiang has a large number of them, and he still leaves a way for the cunning to come out.

Wei Xiang "reluctantly" issued an order to ask the county government and county temple to pay for the unsold land to be purchased as public land.

Of course, the price is extremely low, and the average price of an acre of land is only fifty yuan.

This is almost an order of "stealing and grabbing", and it still makes the heroes grateful to Dade.

As a result, by buying the fields of the giant family at a low price, Shaofu and Dasi Nong can at least have billions of money in their accounts.

And that's just the direct benefit of migrants.

After these hundreds of millions of families moved to Pingling County, the fields and houses rewarded by the imperial court were definitely not enough.

At that time, it is necessary to buy a field house in Pingling County, which is all public land and public land under the jurisdiction of Shaofu, and the price is naturally expensive.

To build a mansion, it is necessary to purchase masonry and earthworks, hire masonry craftsmen, and add furniture and furnishings...... As long as there is a transaction, there is consumption, and where there is consumption, there is a tax.

These commercial taxes, according to the system, are all levied by the Son of Heaven's private treasury, the Shaofu, in other words, they will also become the income of the Son of Heaven.

This is a higher level of big eaters.

Huge houses are like cornucopias, and a lot of wealth has accumulated in the basins.

If this wealth is left in one place, it will become land, and then it will become a dependence of secession.

The matter of migrants can turn these cornucopias, large and small, upside down, and the wealth inside and outside the basin will burst out of the sky.

No matter who you are, you can get a piece of the pie.

And the one who gets the biggest spoonful is naturally the Son of Heaven.

This is just the million homes in the three counties of Henan, and soon, the million homes of the other Kanto counties will also start to move.

At that time, the wealth released by the giant family will be an even more staggering number.

And that's just a modest social reform: a prey on some interest groups to force them to cede some of their wealth.

If it is a more violent social revolution or a foreign war, the wealth that will be released will be even greater.

Use the looted money to train the new army, and then use the new army to loot more money.

Isn't that better?

……

At the end of May, the migrants from the three counties finally set off one after another.

Although these million-dollar homes have been "stripped away", the remaining family wealth is still very staggering.

Every family, slaves and maids, horses and luxury cars, form a mighty fleet of people and horses......

These convoys of horses converged on the official road, and in groups, slowly moved westward.

Half a month later, they will arrive in Pingling County: when they get there, there will be another "cool official" to help them start a new life.

……

On the tower of the west gate of Ruoyang County, Wei Xiang stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the convoy of people and horses heading west on the official road.

The dust is rolling, the horses are singing, and the voices are boiling, so it's not lively.

Wei Xiang was silent, and his expression was not relaxed.

Behind him was the equally silent Jane Kou.

"Elder Ge, the matter of the migrants has been completed, why are you still worried?" Jian Kou asked.

"There are hundreds of counties in Dahan, and although we have done this in the three counties, there will be more twists and turns in the future." Wei Xiang said with a sigh.

"Governing a big country is like cooking a small meal, and it is inevitable that there will be some mistakes." Jian Kou said respectfully.

"The general trend is in Chang'an, and the county officials will suppress the courtiers in Chang'an City who are connected with the giant family, so that the ending can be considered stable." Wei Xiang nodded and said.

"The county official Shengming is kind and decisive, and he will definitely be able to control the situation in Chang'an City." Jian Kou said sincerely.

"As a courtier, I can only do this for the county officials, and the general trend of the world still depends on Your Majesty." Wei Xiang said.

"Wei Ge is old and wise."

"Jian Kou, the big family suddenly migrated, leaving a lot of emptiness, and there are fewer constraints in the countryside, and I am afraid that there will be thieves and thieves to make trouble......"

"You and Han De have to work harder, take Chang Yi Lang and Yu Lin Lang around to clear up, so as not to cause civil unrest."

"The last general commands!"

Wei Xiang didn't speak anymore, and his gaze once again turned to the convoy of men and horses that coiled eastward like a giant python.

The people in these convoys are all well-known figures in the three counties, but at the moment, they are dragging their families and away from their homeland, and they look a little desolate.

Fortune and misfortune depend on each other, and no one knows what the road ahead is.

Take Wei Xiang as an example, he can give orders in these three counties, but when he arrives at Weiyang Palace and Qingliang Palace, doesn't he have to tremble?

And even if he is the Son of Heaven, he doesn't actually do whatever he wants.

As a result, Wei Xiang's line was cast to the edge of the Mangyuan farther away, and in that direction was the invisible city of Chang'an.

I don't know what turmoil is happening in Chang'an City at this moment.

……

On May 25, the weather in Chang'an City was extremely hot, and under the double gate of Weiyang Palace, thirty or forty people knelt neatly.

The four people led by him are Zhang Anshi, Bingji, Liu De and Wei Xian.

As for those behind them, they were either courtiers from a big family, or they were the heads of the big families in Chang'an City.

Yang Zhong, Jin Jian, Du Yannian, Dou Ding, Feng Fengshi, Geng Feng, Shi Tao......

Many of them have names that look unremarkable and don't have much of a record in the history books, but in fact they represent a large family.

These clans are now very prominent, but in their original history, they would have swelled even greater.

In the end, it became a local separatist force, which in turn influenced the change of dynasties.

The Zhang family, of which Zhang Anshi is the head of the family, is a prime example.

In the original history, Zhang Anshi and his brother Zhang He were both made marquis, and their three sons also served as courtiers of 2,000 stones.

Zhang Bo, Zhang Lin, Zhang Fang, Zhang Chun, Zhang Fen, Zhang Fu...... These Zhang children will be able to achieve something in the future and become the pillars and pillars of the court.

And the Zhang family not only has the right, but also the family will far exceed ordinary people.

According to historical records, Zhang Anshi's wife personally spun, and the family's weaving workshop raised 700 domestic slaves specializing in weaving.

This scale is no longer a small family workshop, but a large-scale workshop second to none, and it is very likely that it will earn hundreds of millions of dollars a year.

The wealth of the Zhang family can be imagined.

Zhang Anshi is naturally cautious and cautious in the court, but in the face of ordinary people, how can he really tremble?

When the imperial power fell, didn't the Zhang family think of secession and self-preservation?

Not only Zhang Anshi, but everyone kneeling here has the lintel of the family behind them as a backing.

Anping Hou Yang Zhong's father was the former prime minister Yang Chang, representing the Hongnong Yang family.

The great-grandfather of the Marquis Jin Jian was the Xiongnu prince Jin Riyan who surrendered to the Han Dynasty, representing the Sanfu Jin clan and even the old Xiongnu.

Jianping Hou Dou Ding's father is Dou Guangguo, the younger brother of Empress Dou, representing the Qinghe Dou clan.

Although Shi Tao has no official and no title, he is a giant businessman of the Sanfu generation, and his family is immeasurable, and it is said that there are as many as one billion.

There are also Wei Xian, Liu De, Bingji...... They are all important ministers of two or three dynasties, and they all deserve the name of the family.

When they fell to Huo, they had common interests with the Son of Heaven, and they could naturally come together, and even share the same hatred.

However, when the New Deal was implemented, contradictions and differences between them and the Son of Heaven appeared.

The forced relocation of millions of homes in three counties to fill Pingling - this matter has become the focus of concentrated contradictions.
