Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1299 Individual Thoughts

Fei Qian went to the south city of Yinshan Mountain and stood in the government office's study room, looking at a room full of files. These files are the Yinshan household registrations that have been added one after another during this period.

In the Han Dynasty, local officials had a very important performance evaluation criterion, which was taxation, and the source of taxation was the household registration file of this house.

Household compilation is carried out on the basis of aligning the people, and the households are compiled to align the people. Already made up, where is Qi?

These four words of innovation of Chinese people really have a long lasting charm.

If elsewhere, the people who are registered in the household registration mainly include four categories of people, mainly landlords, self-cultivators, servants, and farm laborers, but here in Yinshan, it is somewhat different. The largest landowner is Fei Qian, and then there are various small military classes. As for the gentry, they have long since disappeared. The self-cultivator class can only be said to be half of it. After all, most of them have just transferred from being refugees or Montenegrins. Many people have to farm for five years or even longer before they can be granted land and are truly self-cultivated farmers. .

There are basically no domestic servants or farmhands.

Although there is a military class, most of these people do not hire workers. They have many soldiers, and the private soldiers they raise are the best employers.

The household registration system began in the pre-Qin Dynasty and continued through later generations. The main reason is that it is the most convenient for administrative management and tax collection. Registering households to equalize the people is both an administrative system and a taxation system. According to the current most basic taxes in the Han Dynasty, in addition to the ordinary land rent of thirty to one tax, there is also the poll tax, which is the calculation tax and the oral tax; in addition to the corvee and military service.

Of course, most of the farmers here in Yinshan are considered to be farmers, so the land rent is relatively high, but there is no military service and corvee service, because these labor services are basically replaced by Xianbei slaves. These farmers only need to help out on the grassland in their free time. If you pay some green pennies for reserve, it will be offset.

Is this considered benevolent government?

That's right.

The positions are just different.

Fei Qian picked up one of the volumes and opened it. He saw a piece of wooden slip which read, "The head of the household, named Liu, is Chang Ren, who lives fifteen miles south of Yinshan Mountain. Liujiazhai is forty years old, and there are two wives and one male, named Zeng." Two women give birth to one child, one person has three acres of homestead, and one cow plows fifty acres." The upright Han scribes did this in one breath from top to bottom.

Well, there's no punctuation.

Therefore, the administrative power of interpretation in ancient times belonged to the government.

This has just begun, and the household registration is a little rough. If the household registration was based on the standards of the Han Dynasty, it would not only need to record these basic information, but also record the origin of the head of the household and his family members, and even indicate the physical health status, personal appearance, characteristics, etc...

These were formulated by Xiao He, the founding prime minister of the Han Dynasty, and a special "Nine Chapter Laws" were issued. The "household law" was used to stipulate detailed household registration management methods. Subsequently, each dynasty spared no effort to add to the household registration system. …

In the Sui and Tang Dynasties, in order to prevent households from fleeing, the rulers continued to implement the "Three Chiefs System" in the Northern Wei Dynasty, strengthened grassroots management, rectified the household establishment, and used the "Three Chiefs" as a grassroots organization to implement "Da Suo Mao Yue" .

By the time of the Tang Dynasty, the household registration management was quite complete. The "group appearance" and "registration registration setting" were implemented. Accounts were made every year and household registration was made every three years. The management was relatively rigorous.

The household registration system was continuously developed and improved during the Song and Yuan dynasties, and the Ming Dynasty implemented the household registration system. In order to prevent counterfeiting and counterfeiting, each household post is numbered and stamped with the official seal. It is made in duplicate, one copy is given to the people for retention and the other is handed over to the Ministry of Household Affairs. The Ming government also fabricated yellow books based on the Lijia system.

Qing Dynasty, a little bit...

Should we activate the police system?

Fei Qian frowned, looked at the household registration, and thought deeply. Speaking of which, "I, the Qing Dynasty" did not make any contribution to the household registration. In this case, there will definitely be some old people and young people who are anxious. At least the police system was initially established at the end of the Qing Dynasty. Of course, there may be another prerequisite, that is, being force.

Fei Qian had some impression of the black-skinned dog in those TV series and movies from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China...

Before the police system, household registration was managed by the grassroots villagers, Sanlao, Baojia, and government offices. But after the police system, it was the police station. The police replaced the government officials and became the grassroots household registration management and criminal and civil handling personnel. The advantage of the police system is that it strips away part of the clan's power to rule over the people. However, the police system also has higher requirements for grassroots personnel. Now, it is still a bit difficult to implement.

Now the urban inspection system has been basically established, and the police system and the inspection system cooperate with each other to separate most of the legislative and law enforcement powers from the clans. At the same time, it can also absorb the aging of the army and the disabled soldiers. It is a direction worth trying.

Now I still have to put it away first, after all, manpower and other things still need to be reserved for a period of time...

It's just that someone traveled to the Three Kingdoms and did things like stabbing people, either stabbing women or men. So when he came to the Three Kingdoms, he not only engaged in urban management, but also engaged in police affairs. This is really...

Fei Qian silently closed the household registration file and put it down, then adjusted his emotions, nodded with a smile, and praised Ma Yue for his work achievements over the past period of time. Ma Yue was so happy that he couldn't help but smile. I can't get that big tooth back.

Seeing Ma Yue's excitement, Zhao Yun stood behind Fei Qian and remained silent.

Huang Xu glanced at Zhao Yun slightly, but didn't say anything. After all, Huang Xu only cared about Fei Qian's safety, but what Zhao Yun was thinking about. As long as he didn't hinder or threaten Fei Qian, Huang Xu would pretend he didn't see it.

Zhao Yun was actually here, but he was a little distracted. He frowned slightly, thinking about the problem in his mind.

It has been a few days since General Fei Qian came to Yinshan. He first looked at the Yinshan camp, no, now also the construction of Yinshan City. Then he checked the progress and effectiveness of Zhang Lie's cavalry training, and now he looked at the household registration. It seemed that Yu Fu Luo was completely forgotten, as if he had completely forgotten about it.

Zhao Yun glanced at Fei Qian's back. Did General Fei Qian of Zhengxi go to Yinshan just to patrol the border? Obviously not, but why do you think General Zhengxi is not in a hurry at all?

Also, when he went to Baishi Qiang to buy salt, how could General Zhengxi know that Baishi Qiang's people would come to inquire about the situation, and how could he conclude that Gao Nu's people would know the news? Then Gaonu's people will definitely push Yu Fuluo's attitude here in Yinshan to change?

If the question marks in his mind could be seen, there must be a lot of question marks jingling on Zhao Yun's head. However, Zhao Yun has a dull and steady personality, so even though there are so many questions swirling in his mind, he still holds back his temper and silently observes and waits...

For Fei Qian, the issues that Zhao Yun is considering at the moment are not too big. After all, Bai Shiqiang is not good, and there are Gong Jun and others, right? It's just that the wind blows from north to south, or It just blows from south to north. Now, the question in Fei Qian's mind is how big this storm will become and how to deal with it in the future.

Fei Qian clasped his hands behind his back, looking at the clouds rolling in the sky over Yinshan Mountain, listening to Ma Yue telling some interesting stories about Yinshan Mountain during these times, nodding his head from time to time, as if he was listening attentively, but in fact he was also distracted.

Do you want to learn from Senior Brother Cao?

This is a problem.

…………………………

"Atonement? Well, maybe it's a way..."

Yu Fuluo pondered. Speaking of which, Yu Fuluo is not a decisive and decisive hero, and even Xiao is not a match for him. Xiong, he is barely qualified. Although he talks about wanting to learn from King Maodun and revitalize the Huns, he is the same as some people. He is a giant only when he spits.

Mao Dun was so ruthless that he not only killed his younger brother, but also his mother.

You can't learn from Fu Luo.

Although Yu Fulo had been somewhat wary of Hu Chuquan before, after seeing Hu Chuquan's unlucky appearance, he didn't know why he remembered the happy time when the two were friendly to each other when they were children. When he thought of his father's death, he just remembered it. Huchuquan was the only relative left, and with the persuasion of some elders in the tribe, there was no way he could be ruthless.

But Yu Fuluo also didn't dare to let Huchuquan go.

The Yinshan Walled City of General Zhengxi is nearby. All day long, the captain named Zhang roared past the grassland with new soldiers and veterans. The growth of the strength of the Han people on horseback can be seen every day. If they offend General Zhengxi is also in trouble.

Han people...

Why are there such a large population of Han people? They are like wild rabbits on the grassland, nesting one after another, and another nest after another...

"Great Chanyu, the man from the north wants to see you..." said the guard outside the king's tent.

"Oh, let him come in..." Yu Fuluo said, putting away his somewhat divergent thoughts.

"Dear Shanyu, I wonder how you have considered Shiwei's suggestions?" Xianbei envoy Tuoba Xinjin interrupted Yu Fuluo's thoughts. The weather in the north is getting colder and colder. The northern Xianbei are forced to migrate south, but their migration is blocked by the Yinshan Walled City of General Fei Qian of the Western Expedition. They can only bypass the Yinshan White Road and take the west side of the Yinshan Mountain. Yamaguchi, found Yufuluo.

Therefore, Tuoba Xinjin is not very polite, or he doesn't quite understand what politeness means. The Xianbei people who live in the desert of the north are strong and upright, with some blood mixed with the color-eyed people, and their hair is a little yellow and curly. , like a big brown bear.

Tuoba Xinjin opened his mouth and punched Yu Fulo into the corner. Yu Fulo's face was inevitably a bit ugly.

suggestion? What innovative suggestions can Xianbei people have? It's not the same old thing. We raise an army together and then divide the acquired population, property and land equally...

Can you give me some creativity?

Although Yu Fuluo didn't know what the so-called creativity was, he was not very interested in the terms proposed by the Xianbei people. Looking at Tuoba Xinjin, his heart suddenly jumped, and he quickly lowered his head and coughed twice to cover up the irritation in his eyes. The fierce light.

I wonder if I can get a good price by selling this Xianbei envoy?

After all, we have to atone for our sins. Maybe we can reduce some property losses or something?

Yu Fuluo put on a smiling face and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry... This matter involves many things and should always be discussed. It won't be too late to relax for a few days..."

Tuoba Xinjin frowned, hesitated for a moment, and wanted to say something, but was blocked by Yu Fuluo's loud instructions to serve wine and meat. Then after smelling the aroma of wine and meat, Tuoba Xinjin was a little embarrassed. Ba Xinjin also forgot what he wanted to say before. Just think about it more. If not, just wait another day?

Yu Fuluo cheerfully sang a song to encourage people to drink, and invited Tuoba Xinjin with kumiss. They would eat this and drink that, and they were so fat and fat, so they were so good!

Halfway through eating and drinking, Yu Fuluo wiped his oily hands on his robe, then stood up and left the tent. The alcohol content of kumis is not high, but your bladder can’t bear it if you drink too much, so you always have to relax.

But Yu Fuluo had just found a place behind the big tent, and when he was reaching into his leather robe to dig out, he turned around and saw the elders of the clan running over, and then he was stopped by the guards. , but he didn’t leave, just looked at Yu Fuluo in the distance with his dead eyes.

"..." Yu Fuluo muttered a few words in a low voice, submerged in the sound of gurgling water.

The Huns did not have a highly centralized political structure, but a tribal alliance system. The great elder was the leader of another larger tribe. He nominally obeyed the chanyu's deployment, but he also had full administrative power among his tribes.

This time, the main person who opposed Yu Fuluo's killing of Huchuquan was the great elder. Of course, the others were not qualified to discuss politics.

The great elder's intention is definitely not to cure diseases and save people, or to give him a chance to make mistakes, but because he has his own considerations.

For a loose alliance system like the Xiongnu, the greater the authority of the Chanyu, the smaller the authority of the chief elder. At this point, Huchuquan is better alive than dead, because according to the practice of the Xiongnu, Huchuquan is qualified to inherit the position of Shanyu, so if Yufuluo does too much, he can use Huchuquan To replace Yu Fuluo, so as to achieve a smooth transition of power.

If Huchuquan is alive, he can control Fuluo, and for the great elder, Huchuquan has another advantage that Yufuluo does not have. Huchuquan is not biased towards Han people, at least not like Yu Fuluo. What Han Chinese scriptures are you looking at...

Of course, this was the judgment of the great elder at the beginning, so the great elder strongly opposed killing Hu Chuquan from the beginning.

However, things are always changing, just like the wind on the grassland. Who knows when it will blow the urine back and wet the feet...

Yu Fuluo trembled for a few times, then put down his leather robe, walked over slowly, and said with a smile: "Great Elder, what kind of wind brought you here..."

"My Chanyu..." the Great Elder caressed his chest and bowed, "I heard that the Great Chanyu is going to do what he wants to do with the Han people in accordance with the rules of the Han people... to atone for his sins? To atone for the sin of Hu Chuquan?"

Yu Fuluo frowned and said, "Who did you listen to?"

"We cannot atone for our sins!" the great elder said categorically, "We Huns have our own Huns' laws, so why should we listen to the rules of the Han people? This time we are allowed to atone for our sins, and next time we will have to collect money and taxes on us. ! The rules of the Han people, humph, the bullshit rules of the Han people! The scattered small tribes in the south have to pay the Han people some tax every year, and their livestock must be taxed one-twenty! Do you know, the Great Chanyu?"

"I know..." Yu Fuluo was a little disapproving and said, "That's a matter of the Qiang people, what does it have to do with us? And it seems that the Qiang people don't have any objections. Why, does the great elder have any dealings with the Qiang people? "

"Last time it was the Qiang people, this time it will be us Huns!" the great elder said with seeming foresight.

"Don't discuss the crime with the Han people?" Yu Fuluo frowned and glanced at the tent subconsciously. He originally wanted to use the Xianbei people to offset part of his sins.

The eldest elder was old and mature. He followed Yu Fuluo's gaze and suddenly smiled: "It seems that Shan Yu has already made arrangements... He is indeed the son of Qiang Qu. Okay, this method is good! I think this can be done! If the Han people If you don’t agree to revoke King Youxian’s crime, then we will unite with Xianbei to attack together!” In the heart of the elder, when he conquered the Yinshan Mountains in the west, his achievements were at least half of those of the Huns. Now that he has turned his back and disowned them, it is extremely abominable. Thinking about collecting livestock taxes to get every inch of money is simply unbearable.

"Uh... this..." Yu Fuluo nodded at first, but when he heard the second half, he realized something was wrong, but he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Are you saying that the Han people are no longer what they used to be?

Are you saying that the Huns now mainly need to recuperate?

Finally, Yu Fuluo's eyes flashed a few times and he said: "This... I will consider it..."
