Chapter 961: Diffusion
The end of the nobles made Qingzhang Tianmu no longer have the slightest obstacle, and the other magnates no longer dared to stumble on this matter, for fear that they would follow in the footsteps of the nobles.
Finally, on the occasion of the arrival of the New Year, the inventory of fields and acres in the Gyeonggi area led by Zhang Zheng and others came to an end.
Compared with the initial more than 17,000 hectares of land, after the current inventory, the number of acres of land registered on the throne has reached about 35,000 hectares.
That's 3.5 million acres of land.
Of the 3.5 million mu of land, 500,000 mu belong to the Huangzhuang and 2.5 million mu belong to the landlords, gentry, and nobles.
Only 500,000 acres belong to the people.
And in the land of Gyeonggi, the number of people alone is no less than 2 million!
Bianjing City alone has a permanent population of one million!
Two million people, 500,000 acres of land!
One acre is not enough!
And five-sevenths of the land belonged to the landlords and gentry!
Zhao Jun, the emperor, is only one-seventh.
In addition to the people who work in the city, there are about one million peasant households in Bianjing.
In general, in the end, the ownership of the land in the hands of the imperial court has reached 2 million mu.
At this point, the operation of Cheongjang-mum in the land of Gyeonggi was officially completed, and great results were achieved.
His Majesty's eyes looked at the world, and what he looked at was the field in the hands of the gentry and powerful people in the world!
How can this keep them from being afraid?
But the more they fear something, the easier it will be for what to come.
Even the lands of the landlords, gentry and nobles who had concealed these fields were confiscated.
Some people know that the operation of Gyeonggi is just a test of His Majesty, and it is good if the test fails. But now that the experiment has been successful, it is only natural that we will look to the world.
Let's officially promote it nationwide! ”
So Zhao Jun directly divided the local people with less than one acre of land in accordance with the local policy of equal sharing.
This is a good thing for both the local people and the imperial court.
Just listen to Zhao Jundao:
"Since the work of clearing the fields has been a complete success in the Gyeonggi area.
But when Yuan Xi passed, when the court began to go to court again, Zhao Jun's words made the hearts of hundreds of officials who had been happy for a year sink to the bottom.
His Majesty was really unexpectedly prepared to spread the matter of clearing the acres of land.
There are no daring guys in the border areas who dare to provoke the Great Song Dynasty, everything is fine.
Immediately, Zhao Jun ordered the household department to start granting land to the people.
There is more revenue!
Recently, the officials of the household department have been smiling like flowers every day, and they are very happy to register in the new field register.
The six years of Xingwu have been very peaceful, and there are no moths in the court.
Zhao Jun was very satisfied with this result, but for others, this was an extremely terrifying signal.
Next year, the imperial court will be able to pay nearly two million mu more land tax in Bianjing.
After this inventory, in addition to those registered in the imperial court, which promised not to be investigated, there are still more than 1.6 million mu of land that has been cleared out, and now it is all owned by the imperial court according to the rules set before.
And the common people only have the same amount of land as the Huangzhuang.
In the same way, these fields are not from wasteland, they are all good and ripe fields.
Zhao Jun's words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, and he scared the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty stupidly.
Spread across the country?
Then is our hometown also going to be investigated, and if our hometown is found out that we have hidden the fields, what should we do? Could it be that the achievement is the same as these unfortunate nobles? Was it cleaned up by His Majesty for the whole family, and then all the property confiscated?
Just when the officials were panicking, Zhao Jun spoke again.
However, after the Qingzhang incident spread throughout the country, some regulations were different, such as allowing early reporting within the specified time and not being condemned, and this article was abolished.
Of course, once it is found that there is land that is not on the list, or that there is no tax paid, or the land that is not taxed by oneself, the owner's property will not be confiscated.
but the land which has not been taxed, or the land that has been hidden, or the land that has been taxed by others, is confiscated. ”
Zhao Jun made some concessions, but at the same time, he also filled in some loopholes.
For example, the first article is that if a gentry robs a large amount of land without doing evil, but reports it within the specified time, the court cannot punish him, and he becomes the owner of those fields for nothing.
Moreover, this regulation is also Zhao Jun's policy of buying horse bones for the Gyeonggi region, so it is not suitable for the Qingzhang action after large-scale promotion.
The second is a reduction in the punishment of the Gyeonggi region.
Once the matter of clearing the fields and acres is expanded to the whole world, and all the property is confiscated, it will undoubtedly force the gentry of the whole world to a dead end.
Although Zhao Jun is not afraid of them, there is no need to be so desperate.
just collected their ill-gotten gains, which is already Zhao Jun's rare tolerance.
If they don't know what to do, then Zhao Jun can only teach them what it is, and those who know the times are Junjie.
Although it is said that the policy has been adjusted, the matter of Qingzhang still makes it uncomfortable for those with vested interests.
Many officials in the court are among them, and they want to think of a way to see if they can get His Majesty to take back their fate.
But no matter how they think about it, they can't think of a suitable excuse, the most important thing is that now they don't dare to oppose it directly, and the blood of those nobles is still in the Dongshi Caishikou.
Maybe they dare to object today, and tomorrow their heads will fall on the execution table with those nobles.
Thinking about it, I saw someone looking at Zhang He, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating.
Then more and more people looked at it.
That's right! Just because they can't open their mouths doesn't mean that the Prime Minister can't speak! Your Majesty can't just pull Zhang Xiang out and behead him because he is opposite, right?
They didn't believe that Zhang Xiang would not own some land in his hometown that did not belong to the Zhang family.
They are in the same group as Zhang Xiang!
However, since the last time he expressed his intention to return to his hometown, Zhang He has basically regarded himself as a transparent person when he went to the court, just standing quietly in his own position, watching them argue, quarrel, and deal with each other in the court, but he no longer said a word, as if he was invisible.
However, after being a transparent person for so long, I didn't expect to be noticed by everyone again.
Zhang He turned his head and saw the expectant eyes of the officials, and after thinking about it, he closed his eyes directly, and directly pretended not to see it.
Just kidding, the old man is ready to retire, do you want me to carry the thunder for you again before retiring?
The old man can do it for you!
Can not see! Can not see! Can not see!
Zhang He silently hypnotized himself in his heart.
Seeing Zhang He's appearance, the officials who originally thought they had found a glimmer of life were immediately dumbfounded.
What's the situation?
Zhang Xiang didn't see them?
What does that mean?
You're the Prime Minister! When you encounter something, who comes out of the way, you actually hide?
But where does Zhang He care about them, it's true that he is doing well.
As for them?
The old man will let you die!
