Chapter 971 - Meritorious Service with Sheji

Eastern Wilderness

The wind whistled and rolled up a cloud of snow.

A young man, dressed in black, about twenty years old, with a long knife at his belt, was patrolling in front of the pavilion, turning his eyes around.

The Han Dynasty followed the Qin system and improved it, but retained many of the characteristics of Legalism - the construction of straight official roads, with pavilions at intervals, is typical.

In front of you is different from the Han Tuda, continuous mountains, reckless land, dense forests, only the left and right sides of the official road, and you can see a large wheat field.

This year is a good year, with heavy snow on the wheat, and it is conceivable that spring will become longer and lush.

However, there are not many cars, horses and pedestrians on the official road, which is easy to understand, the Han Kingdom has set up two states in the Eastern Wilderness, but the population is only 2 million, more than half of which are slaves, and it is a vast and sparsely populated land.

"It's been half a month since I've been here, time flies so fast. Shi Biao thought silently in his heart, he was a student of Xia Tutai, originally a Shi family, inheriting his ancestors in Yuyin, with 500 acres of fertile land, but he had the soul of the Great Han Dynasty and was lifted up.

In the dead of night, they will think of their parents, their wives and children, and they will not be able to see them again, and their hearts ache faintly, but they can only be silently put in their hearts, thunder, rain and dew are all heavenly graces, not to mention the changes in the world.

Even if he couldn't accept this, he was naturally killed, hanging his head at the door, and among the 110,000 Han people, there were still a few Han people who couldn't accept it and were beheaded.

If you don't accept it, you will resent, and you will die.

"It's all a big dream? No, I will pass on my Shi clan in this Han Kingdom. Shi Biao's mind was calm, so he accepted the reality and thought about it.

Fortunately, the Han people came up, and the lowest ones were the chief and the pavilion chief, and they had been in this world for half a month, and they were completely familiar with the current situation.

Shi Biao retracted his gaze, turned his mind to the present, and looked at the pavilion.

The Qin and Han dynasties are the regime of the numerical control zhì to the household, the traditional set up the pavilion, the pavilion is the security unit, and also has the responsibility of the hotel station, after the reform of the Han system, or the postal unit, there are pavilion chiefs, pavilion Zuo, seeking thieves, pavilion officials, with knives, can hold bows and arrows.

Li is the establishment of 50 households, with Li Zheng, Li Father, Li Zuo, Li Zhi middle posts, and set up sacrificial wine, all of which together with the pavilion and postal system that undertakes the function of public security, up to the township level, forming a strict control network, so that the control of the grassroots organizations is the foundation of the political power that has been tempered for thousands of years.

There is basically no major change in this aspect, and historically it can be controlled to the household, and the slight change is at the township level, and there is no chief administrator, so that the county order is smooth.

These systems were originally secret, but at the student level of Xia Tutai, they have all studied and are clear.

At this time, when I returned to the pavilion, there was a stone slab connected to the official road, and at this time I ordered: "At noon at this time, the food is distributed in the kiln, and I ask for thieves, you bring people and follow me to inspect!"

"Yes!" This thief is a native of the Eastern Wilderness, Chinese New Year's Eve, with a dark complexion, like an iron-beaten man, and it is said that there are eleven wounds on his body, witnessing this person's fierceness, and then he responded loudly, and in a blink of an eye five pavilion pawns came out, all with long knives, and one with a bow and arrow.

Shi Biao smiled, nodded, and stepped forward.

According to the New Han system, the official uniform is black, and the military uniform is red, with only slight differences.

The kiln mentioned by the historical table is not far from the "Sanyangli", close to the pavilion, and it is not far from the official road.

"Sanyangli" is the standard Han family "li", mostly square, in order to facilitate management and anti-theft, there are walls and doors, inside is a straight street, fifty households are arranged on the left and right of the street, very neat.

If it is in the county, it is even more meticulous and completely symmetrical, this is the way of Legalism.

When he entered the room, one person greeted him, with a smile on his face, and said, "Shi Jun, you are here." ”

"Are you done with today's meal?"

"It's almost, look!"

Due to the large number of slaves, the pavilion chief was in charge of supervising, and Shi Biao ignored it, and went up to a hall, and saw that many women were busy.

Then roll out the coarse dough into round cakes, sprinkle with salt, and bake on a pan.

The sizzling sound continued, and one big cake after another was formed.

According to the portion, a slave could eat eight points full of one flatbread, and there was also some soup made of minced meat and wild vegetables, which was the standard food of slaves.

Shi Biao checked it, and then said to the lieutenant: "These are all the grains allocated from above, but they are just handed over to you to cook, and they have been paid, and now you have deducted some more, and the amount is only eighty percent of the original, if you continue like this, you will break the law, and I will not be polite at that time." ”

The chief was stunned and said, "No, how can we deduct it!"

Seeing Shi Biao's forced gaze, he responded: "Yes, yes!"

Shi Biao took the five pavilion guards and turned to a burning place not far away, which was a row of kilns.

The kiln belly gate is wide, and a large number of slaves are seen, and the adobe bricks are loaded into the kiln, and many people transport the bricks into the kiln, and some people load the kiln, and the carbon fire is burned for seven days, and finally the kiln door is opened, and the bricks in the kiln can be cooled out of the kiln for users to use.

The bricks that come out are "green bricks", 1 foot 2 inches long, 5 inches wide, and 3 inches thick.

At this time, a black-clothed official, about twenty years old, greeted him and said, "Is it Shi Jun?"

"Is it Qian Jun?"

Qian Zhi was the commander of the 100-man slave team, and the slaves adopted the tuntian system.

In the 11th year of the Western Han Dynasty (169 years ago), Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty used sinners, slaves and recruited peasants to garrison Tuntian, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty dispatched a large number of soldiers to the Western Regions of Tuntian.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the war continued year after year, the land was barren, the population was sharply reduced, and there was a shortage of food, in the first year of Jian'an (196), Cao Cao adopted the construction of Zao Yi and Han Hao, and carried out tuntian near Xudu.

The land of Tuntian is ownerless and barren land, and it is said that Tuntian harvested millions of grains in that year.

Now in the Han Kingdom, it is 1 tun for every 100 slaves, and the tun chief is set up, in fact, the scope is very wide, building roads, water conservancy, cultivating farmland, building houses, etc., and doing the work of these kilns in the cold in winter.

It can be said that the Han State was able to quickly complete the countyization because of the blood and sweat of millions of slaves.

The reason is very simple, the formal countyization, or Tingliization, is a large-scale demolition, and if there is no compensation, the loss will be very large, which will cause the people of the original colony to resist or even rebel.

Now that the slaves have been used to reclaim free land, build free houses, and give them to live in, they have little resistance, and they are willing to move to Xinjun County, Xinli Pavilion, and accept the Han system.

Therefore, for more than a year, looking at the sky, you can see that with the entry of 100,000 Han people, the entire colony of the Eastern Wilderness has rapidly become sinicized, and the system is deepening.

At this time, of course, these two people couldn't think too far, both of them stood on a high place, watching the groups of slaves below come out, because the diet was okay, so although they were a little dark and thin, their general spirit was okay.

The slaves did not dare to crowd and scramble, and lined up one by one with bowls to receive the flatbread, and although they were very anxious in the back, they had to wait.

There were indigenous women who scooped the soup with spoons, and each slave thanked them in Chinese.

Some Chinese are already very standard, while others are vague, and this is the difference.

Looking at these, Qian Zhi pointed and said: "I am the tun chief, and I have taught Chinese and Chinese at night, but unfortunately only one-tenth of them are willing to learn." ”

Shi Biao said: "His Majesty has an order, slaves only have the right to work and basic food, no reproductive rights, teach Chinese characters halfway, and after three years, they will be assessed in Chinese, and those who are excellent can be released in advance and become tenant farmers." ”

"Tenant farmers may have families, reproductive rights, and land rights, but they may not engage in business, move, or become officials. ”

"After three generations of tenant farmers, they can obtain the status of a Chinese and see them as one. ”

This is the so-called government of great benevolence. ”

"But if there is great benevolence, there must be great coolness, how many people in it are not convinced by sinicization?"

Qian Zhi pressed his sword and smiled, pointed to the crowd under the high platform, and said: "Among these hundred people, I know who is not convinced by Sinicization and who obeys." ”

Turning around, he sighed and said, "Originally, we were in official studies, but we were just talking on paper, but now that we have a hundred people, we know that the king is far-sighted and is really born wise." ”

"According to the law, although the excellent ones can be released early and become tenant farmers after an assessment every three years, there is also a law that says that those who have completed fifteen years of slavery will be released regardless of whether they are qualified or not. ”

"I still have some opinions, but now I know that being a slave for fifteen years, even if His Majesty is merciful and not too hungry and cold, but after years of work, how can there be a way to live?"

"These people who do not accept the king's transformation will eventually accumulate white bones, and they will not be able to pass on their descendants, and they will not cause hidden dangers. ”

Speaking of which, both of them looked at each other and smiled.

Fifteen years of slavery, and the inability to have a family, this is the mass murder of assimilation.

Only those who obey have descendants, and those who do not obey will be treated as cattle and horses, and finally turn into white bones -- if they do not even have descendants, there will naturally be no contradictions and hidden dangers in the future.

The most brilliant thing is that there are channels of ascent at all levels, there is hope, there is a way to survive, and it has been operating until now, except for the beginning, and then there is not even the slightest sign of an uprising.

This is part of Ye Qing's system!

"It is said that when spring comes, the snow melts, that is, when the army is used on a large scale, the Eastern Wilderness can set up six states, and there may be tens of millions of slaves, you and I can be soon, with black ribbons and copper seals, and there will be more children and grandchildren at that time. ”

"Otherwise, if the minister is strong and the lord is weak, it will not be a long-term solution. Shi Biao said.

In the new system of the Han Dynasty, the prime minister of the imperial cabinet actually awarded 6,000 stones, and the members of the cabinet came according to the prime minister of the original Han Dynasty, and they paid 350 stones in a month, a total of 4,200 stones, and the others were basically the same.

The prime minister has a purple ribbon with a gold seal, a silver seal with a blue ribbon of more than 2,000 stones, a silver seal with a yellow ribbon from 2,000 stones to a thousand stones, and a copper seal with a red ribbon from 1,000 stones to 400 stones.

Below 400 stones to 100 stones, the copper seal is black ribbon, and the seal is only allowed to have half a seal.

Qian Zhi smiled: "Of course I know this, you and I are yang, the body is young, the pure-blooded Han girl is precious, the number is only seven thousand, but the so-called yin and yang are prosperous, I have no extravagant hope, I have been connected with the family here and Kyushu, I will marry a wife in the spring, and I have found a few concubines, and within a few years, there will be five or six children!"

"For us ordinary people, reproducing children is a meritorious service to the community. ”

Hearing this, the history table is the first to focus.
