First Minister of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 51: Zhu Yuanzhang's policy

   A land policy, from Zhang Ximeng’s formulation, to Li Shanchang’s questioning, to Jia Lu’s admonition, was finally determined.

  Integrating the wisdom of these three people, Zhu Yuanzhang spent another whole night thinking about it, and finally made up his mind.

   "Send an order, gather all the soldiers, we have to announce something!"

  The people agreed to go, Zhu Yuanzhang just got some cold water, washed his face, he became more energetic, and stepped out of the handsome account.

   When he swaggered and stepped onto the high platform, Shoukenwu was already listed.

Civil officials are still relatively rare. There are only three of Zhang Ximeng, Jia Lu, and Li Shanchang...Although the quantity is small, but the quality is not high, Zhang Ximeng needless to say, Jia Lu is a professional bureaucrat who has achieved Zhongshu Zuocheng, and Li Shanchang is also in Old fried dough sticks in place for many years.

   This combination has already killed many novelists in Gaoyou City.

   Looking at the military commander's side, Xu Da was still in Huaiyuan staring at Chelibuhua, and Tang He was in charge of staying in Linhuai, but they were not there. But other people are also quite impressive.

Fei Ju, Hua Yun, Wu Zhen, Wu Liang, Lu Zhongheng, Li Xincai... there were dozens of people in a long line. These people were generally hundreds of households, and they commanded a hundred people, which was considered a small army. Head off.

But ironically, Lao Zhu’s current official position is still the captain of the nine... Originally he saved Guo Zixing and wanted to reuse it, but he was unwilling to start a war with Zhao Junyong, and he was angry with Guo Zixing. The official position was delayed. .

   Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't care anymore, he is the commander-in-chief of this group, and he deserves it!

   And Zhu Yuanzhang knows that after today, his position will be more stable! Unshakable!

   "Any big family that has colluded with Yuan Ting will be punished severely. If it is harmful to the people, resolutely punish them and demote their families to slaves!"

   Zhu Yuanzhang looked down at everyone and announced loudly!

   It is Zhang Ximeng's idea to advocate severe punishment of the tyrants, but Zhang Ximeng did not talk about the family's problems. In Zhang Ximeng's view, it would be no harm to his family, and he subconsciously opposed the existence of slaves.

   But after Jia Lu's explanation, Zhang Ximeng changed his opinion. First of all, there is a prerequisite that misfortune does not affect the family, that is, the blessing does not benefit the family.

   But in ancient times when big families were common, it was obviously unrealistic.

   Those tyrannical people who do evil, occupy fields, fish and meat people, his little wife, son, relatives, nephews... who have not benefited? Even they are accomplices, enjoying their success together.

   In this case, it should be punished.

   This is logical, and there is one more...that is, meritorious soldiers must give more land. If their family has insufficient manpower, should they be rented out, or what should they do?

   There must be a solution.

   At this time, some powerful family members, even captives, were used as slaves and let them work in the ground.

   Soldiers fighting in the front, don’t have to worry about the family, these servants help them to farm, naturally there is no worries... If it feels wrong, you can order the release of the servants after the world is peaceful. It can also be stipulated that after five years of work, you can be free.

   And he doesn’t take charge of soldiers. You can’t just think about reason, but also look at the current situation!

   In a word, be pragmatic!

   There is no doubt that Zhang Ximeng was persuaded by Jia Lu.

   In fact, he has long known himself, knowing that traversing is impossible without disadvantage. Otherwise, he wouldn't want to take refuge in Zhu Yuanzhang from the beginning.

   It’s just that from Li Shanchang and Jia Lu, Zhang Ximeng feels that there is still too much to learn.

   He even plans to dump the complicated things to Li Shanchang. He asks Jialu for advice and tries to drain the wisdom of this old thing.

"Everywhere you go, check the land of the rich family, count the wasteland, and grant it to the ordinary people. Every three acres of ration fields, without paying any land dues, belongs to each family, and no business is allowed. If there are people in the family who are in the army, every additional person will be divided into three acres of ration fields. Establishing military exploits, and rewards. If you have a large number of soldiers and lack young people, you can apply for it and send labor to help farming and harvesting!"

   Old Zhu Keng’s powerful voice reached everyone’s ears, and after a brief silence, he burst into earth-shattering cheers!

   "The superior is wise! The superior is too thoughtful!"

   The big guy doesn't know what to say, only happy.

   As expected, no one is willing to sacrifice his life.

   In fact, it can be seen now that Zhang Ximeng originally designed the ration field to ensure basic people's livelihood, and even to maintain the overall situation of the land, to prevent land mergers.

   But the ration field announced by Lao Zhu has become the first benefit.

   If you want to compete in the world, it is impossible to have a solid basic disk.

   Under the rule of the old Zhu, I first gave you a ration field that didn't have to pay the land tax. If someone joined the army, I would double it for you, so I asked if you were tempted?

   As for the issue of land, it can be confiscated from large households anyway, and there is a lot of wasteland, which is really not good. You can also fight outside to grab new land.

   In short, this allocation is definitely enough.

When people grow up and need to be redistributed, it is estimated that it will be ten years, twenty years later... If you successfully conquer the world, you will find a way to solve the problem... If you lose, everyone will die, it will not be. Lao Zhu has to worry about it.

   But Lao Zhu still left a back door.

"Except for the grain ration fields, the remaining acres are divided equally among households according to the population, called transfer fields... This part of the land needs to be paid for land tax, and the higher the harvest, the higher the land tax. Every ten years, it is based on the population. Quantity, redistribute it once."

"Furthermore, besides the ration field and the circulation field, there is also the mulberry field, which is to grow mulberry trees, fruit trees, produce silk, hemp, and weave cloth for every household. Under our rule, we must eat enough. Dress warmly!"

   Obviously, this Sang Ma Tian is the Yongye Tian of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Sui and Tang Dynasties.

   The Yellow River is flooding, disasters continue, and refugees are everywhere. It's not just starving countless people to death.

   Zhang Ximeng has long experienced that the wormwood bark in the wild was eaten by the refugees.

   In the lower reaches of the Yellow River, not only people cannot survive, but the ecosystem has also completely collapsed...Although there is no concept of eco-environmental protection at the end of Yuan Dynasty, Jia Lu, a master of river management, also pointed out this point.

   Must encourage tree planting.

   Whether it is a mulberry tree or a fruit tree, let the earth become green as soon as possible. To reduce the extent of the flood, it can also provide the people with some burning materials.

  Women can also weave and spin yarn in exchange for money to supplement their household.

   Men farming and women weaving, this is the natural division of labor in the agricultural era.

   "The specific measurement methods, land tax rates, and reward standards for meritorious soldiers will be announced soon... In short, as long as the big guys don't worry about fighting, our surname Zhu will not treat the big guys badly!"

  Lao Zhu’s declaration is simple and neat, without any illusory pie.

   After the speech, someone will implement it.

   Winning battles, looting territory, killing heroes, dividing the land... This set of simple and rude theory is directly squeezed into the head of the big guy, deeply rooted and indestructible.

   At the same time, the three characters Zhu Yuanzhang were implanted in the hearts of soldiers!

   Since then, there is no longer any son-in-law of Guo Dashuai, Zhu Yuanzhang, and only Zhu Yuanzhang!

  Don’t say that Lao Zhu’s former subordinates, including those who are newly recruited from Lvpai Village, are gearing up and motivated, and they can’t wait to go out to fight right away!

   Fortunately, Lao Zhu is still calm, and more people are not necessarily stronger than fewer people.

  He asked his brothers to step up their training, rigorously, and prepare to attack Lao Zhang in Hengjian Mountain. Li Shanchang was also very busy to implement the division of the fields.

   But even so, Zhu Yuanzhang still has difficulty letting go of one thing, even to the point of being possessed...If he can't solve the doubt, he won't even sleep well.

   "Mr. Zhang, you tell us the truth, is it our destiny?"

   "That's natural!" Zhang Ximeng replied affirmatively.

   Zhu Yuanzhang's breathing suddenly increased.

   "Then, that Shao Kangjie is really that amazing?"

Zhang Ximeng laughed, "Lord, let’s take a look at the first plum blossom poem by Shao Kangjie... The gates of the sky will be opened forever, and a few people have returned. Although the mountains and rivers are not perfect, don’t believe that gold is a misfortune. ?"

   "This is naturally the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the Jinren robbed half of the country!" Zhu Yuanzhang exclaimed: "Shao Kangjie is a person from the Northern Song Dynasty. He can foresee the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty in a few decades, and he can be called a living god!"

   Zhang Ximeng shook his head suddenly, "No, this poem is about the Anshi Rebellion."

   Zhu Yuanzhang frowned.

Zhang Ximeng smiled and said: "The rebels captured Chang'an, and the thousand-year-old emperor fell. Although Emperor Ming of Tang returned to Chang'an, Concubine Yang died in Maweipo. Since then, the town has been seized and the mountains and rivers are broken. As for gold... Anlu Mountain is the Western Regions. People, the West belongs to gold, and the swordsman comes to the west, it is also reasonable!"

  Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly took a cold breath, his complexion became more exciting, puzzled, tangled, relieved, and wry smile~www.novelmt.com~ Shao Yong was a native of the Northern Song Dynasty, so it is naturally impossible to predict the Tang Dynasty, but Zhang Ximeng explained that he had a nose and eyes. Obviously, it is self-evident what exactly is going on in the words of Zhenwei.

   "We were wrong." Zhu Yuanzhang lowered his head, a little disappointed.

   Zhang Ximeng said with a serious face: "The lord is wrong, the heart of the people, as long as the lord loves the people and treats the people like a field, the fate is on the lord! How can a few poems of a demon be counted as fate?"

   Zhu Yuanzhang shook his whole body and was greatly shocked, as if he had realized something. The view on Zhang Ximeng is higher.

   "It's just Mrs. Jia, you seem to be fooled so badly!" Zhu Yuanzhang said amusedly.

   Zhang Ximeng shook his head, "It's okay, I have to study and learn from him, the old man will give it away."

   Zhu Yuanzhang was speechless, and Lao Jia was pitiful enough to be sold, and he still had to help count the money.

   But Zhu Yuanzhang is more concerned about another matter, "Mr. wants to learn skills, what about military affairs?"

   Zhang Ximeng smiled and said: "Naturally it was for Li Shan to grow up, he is much better than Chen."

  Zhu Yuanzhang is not happy, "How does he compare with you? Don't let us listen to some of his words, let him go to the field, but the big strategy, we still listen to you. He Li Shanchang wants to replace you, that is a dream!"

   Lao Zhu is not polite, and directly breaks the matter. It is self-evident who is the person he relies on the most.

   Zhang Ximeng, what else can you say besides thanking you.

   In fact, he couldn't be the shopkeeper. Ma will come from Linhuai, Mu Ying is also in the army, Zhang Ximeng has more things to arrange!

   But at this moment, a landlord with the surname Mu came to pay a visit, claiming to be Mu Ying’s uncle from afar, and would like to see you if you have important matters...
