Chapter 103: Xi Jian's decision
Xi Jian looked at the talent search order handed to him by the refugees, took it with both hands very seriously, and looked at the note on the recruitment order that read, "Only ask about learning, not about origin", he couldn't help sneering, and said secretly in his heart:
"I thought that Liu Tai only wanted to be Li Ling, who was loyal to the Huns, but I didn't expect that as soon as Wang Mi died, I couldn't help but want to learn to be Wei Wu."
However, Xi Jian also admitted that Liu Tai's fighting ability was really strong, and even Gou Xi was defeated by Liu Tai, and he didn't know his life and death for a while.
Looking at the broken mountains and rivers, the scenery is still the same, and I can't help but feel pain in my heart, and I don't know how to do it.
And Xi Jian looked outside in a trance, and after a while, a big man came in with a few coarse grain steamed buns in his hands.
Xi Jian looked at these steaming coarse grain steamed buns, and couldn't help but show a little surprise in his eyes, and said, "This is?" ”
"Mr. Xi, these coarse grain steamed buns are made from villagers who came back from Taishan County, and they taste very fragrant."
As the big man spoke, he put these pottery plates with steamed buns in front of Xi Jian.
Xi Jian was about to take it, but looking at the big man's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, he said, "You have something to say." ”
"Sir, a few villagers have discussed, we are going to Taishan County to beg for a living......" Dahan said,
"So, these steamed buns are not only for Mr. Xi, but also for those two children, we are afraid that we will have to say goodbye to Mr. in the future."
Xi Jian couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, but he didn't expect that the villagers were going to Taishan County.
Because Chen Wu met Shi Le and Wang Mi and was almost wiped out, Xi Jian found an opportunity to escape back to his hometown.
During this period, the place was first hit by drought and then by locust plague, and now it has survived thanks to the help of the villagers.
But the problem is that food is very precious during this time, so the villagers told Xi Jian: "Everyone is hungry and poor, because you are virtuous, so we want to help you together, if you add two children, I am afraid you will not be able to feed together." ”
From then on, Xi Jian went to eat alone, put the rice next to his cheeks, and spit it out to the two children when he came back, so that they could survive together.
But now that the villagers are gone, Xi Jian feels that he and his children are afraid of starving to death here.
Xi Jian was solemn at this moment, and said, "Could it be that all the folks are going to gamble on the meritorious order!?"
When Dahan heard Xi Jian's words, he shook his head and said, "The meritocracy order is all virtuous and talented people like you, Mr., and it has nothing to do with us who are small people who are going to fight, but when we go to Mount Tai, we have a way to live!" ”
"Can you ask those people who have been to Taishan County to come and tell me more about Taishan?" Xi Jian said with a serious expression.
Xi Jian reacted keenly, this kind of thing actually has nothing to do with the people at the bottom.
Even if you are seeking talent, at least you must understand the words on the order to seek talent, but the vast majority of people are illiterate.
And under such circumstances, those people who came back from Taishan County can actually encourage the villagers to go to Taishan, which is wrong.
Because the people are foolish and foolish, but it is not easy to deceive them if they do not see the benefits they have obtained.
Hearing Xi Jian's words, the big man quickly found the big man who came back from Luoyang and asked him to answer Xi Jian's doubts.
Xi Jian said kindly, "This strong man, can you tell me one or two deeds in Taishan County, I also yearn for it." ”
"Mr. Hui Xi, the grass people about last year's locust plague, in the local can not survive, I heard the foot merchant said that there is a new Taishou on Mount Tai, as long as he works, he will take care of the food. The soldiers still had land, so I fled there with a few villagers. Dahan said 1510 in the face of Xi Jian.
"It's like a legend there, as long as you work, you will be given food?" Xi Jian couldn't help but wonder when he heard Dahan's words.
"Give!" Dahan nodded fiercely, "In the first year of the past, the government built us a house so that we could have a place to stay.
After working for a year and raising their bodies, some of them were selected as soldiers and assigned to the fields. ”
"Oh......" When Xi Jian heard this, his eyes couldn't help but widen, this is a field, and he couldn't help but ask: "All those who are soldiers have fields!" “
"Naturally not!" Dahan shook his head and said.
When Xi Jian heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, he already felt a little cold from this.
Because Liu Tai's operation is too similar to Cao Cao's military field system, Liu Tai is not Wang Mi dead at all to have the ambition of the hero, before he fought with Gou Xi, he already had this thought, is this guy sixteen years old this year, he is a thief when he is young!
"Only soldiers who still have families at home can receive the fields, if there is no woman in the family to take care of these, then you used to be a soldier, and these acres of land will naturally be wasted!" Dahan shook his head.
Xi Jian couldn't help frowning when he heard this, he always felt that there was something wrong here, but he couldn't say it.
"Since you already have a field and a business in Taishan, why do you want to come back, here to Taishan County, it is not far away, but it is not far away, but it is not close to say that it is a hundred miles away, even if you walk it is to walk for seven or eight days, this road is not safe!" Xi Jiandao.
"Mr. Xi is right, if it weren't for wealth, how would we have made up our minds to go back here!" Dahan nodded,
"Because of Mount Tai, and even because Liu Qingzhou laid Qingzhou, he was extremely generous in distributing land.
As long as they enlist in the army, they can be given 50 acres of land, and each mu is handed over one stone per year, and the rest belongs to themselves.
If it is cultivated and planted with the help of the tools of the Han Dynasty, one stone and two stones per mu will be collected every year until five years.
Therefore, all the people are proud to be soldiers, because being soldiers gives land. ”
When Xi Jian heard this, he couldn't help frowning, no matter what, this kind of operation is not only Cao Cao's tuntian system.
Inside, he could even see the shadow of Wei Wushu, and even this kind of quantitative tax collection, instead of collecting it according to a few percent, Xi Jian also knew that in such a situation, the people would be more active in farming.
"But what does this have to do with the so-called great wealth?" Xi Jian couldn't help but wonder.
"It's because Liu Qingzhou stipulates that soldiers must get married, whether it is a wife or a concubine, single soldiers are not allowed to receive acres of land, only soldiers with families can get the fields!"
When Dahan said this, he couldn't help but sigh, "And in the past few years, there have been wars, then droughts, and locust plagues not long after.
This calamity is day after day, not to mention that the place in Qingzhou has been looted by the beggar army, and it is not easy for women to survive!
Therefore, in private, there are often soldiers who want acres of land and ask for daughters with a lot of money.
After all, as long as you buy a woman as a concubine, you can start a family, but there are fifty acres of land, which is a good deal.
If the time drags on, even if you can still get the field in the future, but the good fields have been robbed by others, where can you still get your turn.
So I'm going back to my hometown to see, if there are still girls alive, I can find a home for them.
Even if some men can't survive, even if they pawn their wives and concubines! ”
"It's okay to pawn the wife and concubine over there?" Xi Jian was a little surprised when he heard this.
Dahan replied to Xi Jian: "I don't know, anyway, the official family doesn't care, but you have to pay grain when you get the land."
If the pawn lady runs back to her hometown and the food cannot be handed over, you can find the person to take back the field as long as you check the military registration! ”
Xi Jian understood that the system of acres of land was still different from Sima's system of land occupation.
This system is actually linked to the military system, and it is really not easy for the imperial court to go down to inquire about the acres of land, at least the family intends to conceal it, and the family can completely cover the sky in the local area.
Even Liu Xiu, who is as strong as the chosen son, can only give up Dutian in the face of the family joining forces, and can only resign himself to fate, and gradually let the family start to become stronger and bigger.
But Liu Tai is different, because now is a troubled time, it must be the military generals who take precedence, and now under Liu Tai's arrangement, Tian Mu is allocated to the hands of these soldiers and generals.
If their acres of land were encroached upon by the local family, then Liu Tai would have been able to know about it through the army, and it would have become difficult for the family to encroach on the land as before.
Because compared to the originally unarmed people, these people who owned the fields have now become veterans like hob meat.
They may indeed seem to be innoble, and even less powerful than the family.
But these guys are really going to kill people when they are forced to be in a hurry, and for the family, the most annoying thing is this kind of guy who plays with his life at every turn.
After all, your own life is so expensive, how can you casually play with these people!
Xi Jian only thought about it for a while, but he didn't see any problems with this system of tying soldiers to the fields.
What's more important is that this system has really positively increased the enthusiasm of the people to join the army.
Especially in this natural and man-made environment, for the common people, such a system is really beautiful.
As long as you enter Taishan County, you only need a year of hard work, and you can establish a foothold, and then as long as you successfully join the army, you will have the land and even the status.
The status of the common people really doesn't need to be high, a seven-grade sesame official who can't be looked down upon by the scholars, and a tun chief who is disliked by the powerful and powerful, for many people, this is the ultimate goal of their life's struggle.
Therefore, in fact, Liu Tai's talent search order really has no influence on the surrounding people.
They are illiterate, and they know that they are not virtuous, so they bring a merit-seeking order to the sages of their hometown, and that's it.
However, the new system of combining the military system of Liu Taifu and the Juntian system really had a great attraction to the surrounding people in this chaotic era when order collapsed and the imperial court collapsed.
Even if it is not for this system, just to be able to work in Taishan County when there is a shortage of food, the people are willing to go to Qingzhou in order to survive.
At the same time, for the people, there is actually a very hidden reason here, that is, Liu Tai can fight!
That's right, under the simple thinking of the people, I think that whoever Liu Tai fights along the way, anyone can win, and the policies that are now opened can allow them to survive in this troubled era, why don't they go to Qingzhou and Taishan County.
In this troubled world, being able to fight is the last word.
Otherwise, no matter how good the policy is, if the guy on the other side slaughters the city at every turn, then the good policy will not bring the slightest sense of security.
But Liu Tai was the commander of the Xiongnu Han state, he had just defeated Gou Xi, and his political policies were able to keep the people alive.
The most important thing is that he is still a Han in the Xiongnu Han Kingdom, for many people, the Huns and other aliens do not dare to get too close, but there is no problem in getting close to Liu Tai, a Han person.
In this case, these people from Taishan County came forward to say that they would soon plan to migrate to Taishan County in Yishan.
And Xi Jian couldn't help but ponder when he looked at the scene in front of him, and finally felt that he followed the large army and ran towards Mount Tai to take refuge first.
He didn't necessarily say that he wanted to stay, but Ximai and Zhou Yi around him needed to live after all, and the people ran to Taishan County.
There is no one to help him, and he still has two children, how can he survive in this chaos.
As for whether to follow Liu Tai, Xi Jian said that he would rely on his own labor to change food at Liu Tai's place, and he didn't want to go to Liu Tai to flattering and thirst for an official position, and first ask for food and clothing for the time being, and then see if there is a chance to escape to the south in the future!
Xi Jian made a decision and went to Taishan County, at this time, in Taishan County, Yang Man watched Chu Yi visit him again, and this time he also took Liu Tai's order to seek talent, and couldn't help but ponder.
Wang Mi is not dead, and Yang Man naturally has no possibility of choosing Liu Tai.
After all, although Yang Man ignored Liu Tai's love, Liu Tai didn't fall behind when he needed to do things by himself.
So Yang Man wanted to wait for Wang Mi to come over and see what kind of choice Wang Mi would make.
If Wang Mi is really a talent in the world, he is not unable to help him, and when the time comes, he will bring capital into the group, and his status will not be much lower than Liu Tai.
But Wang Mi died directly, which made all of Yang Man's plans fall through.
Whether to do things for Liu Tai according to the purpose of Liu Tai's recruitment order, Yang Man is still hesitant to some extent.
After all, Yang Man is one of the very few families who have been staying in Taishan County, and he understands that Liu Tai is really reasonable, and he is not embarrassed because he is a family, but Liu Tai hates the family and really hates it.
So as a son of a family, working under him, can he really develop the family?!
After all, Liu Tai now has his own basic plate, and even if he wants to bring money into the group, the right to speak he can get is really pitiful.
In such a situation, even if Chu Yu came over with Liu Tai's talent seeking order, Yang Man had to think deeply.
After all, with Luoyang being broken by the Xiongnu Han Kingdom, too many things have really changed!
"In this troubled world, even the flying leopard Wang Mi is not immune to danger, Liu Tai, a young man, can he really afford Qingzhou?!" It was difficult for Yang Man to make up his mind, "Brother Mouyuan, you really brought me a big problem!" ”
At this time, Chu Yu was running towards the next destination with the army!
The next one is a little bit or so, don't wait, let's get up tomorrow and see
