The orders of the convening counties to persecute the gentry and people by the Biaoying in Jinhua Town have been issued, but they are still a while away. [Full text reading] However, compared with Chen Wen's arrangement, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction and resistance, or even boycott, Sun Yu issued another order in the name of the prefect of Jinhua as a supplement to the garrison's expropriation of the unowned wasteland.

According to the regulations of the government, from now on, tax collection is strictly prohibited from charging local officials for excessive charges on administrative grounds such as fire consumption, and additional charges such as slapped husks are also prohibited, increasing the burden on the people. It is also clearly stated that personnel will be sent for undercover investigations, and if there is any violation, they will be severely punished.

This government order was implemented in the Dalanshan era. Wang Jiang issued such orders to win the hearts of the people and reduce corruption, but the implementation was not perfect, so there was the conflict between Chen Wen and Chu Suxian. This time, Sun Yu also raised the salary of officials to be subsidized for the effective implementation of the government order, but at the same time, he also stated that under Chen Wen's suggestion, he would conduct undercover investigations to further corruption.

Since this decree had already appeared in the Dalanshan era, it was not unusual for officials from the Five Divisions of the Dalanshan Old Camp, especially considering that even if they were more cheerful after regaining Jinhua City, they would do things with a stern face, and Chen Wen, who had beaten his colleagues in public, stood behind Sun Yu, did not dare to do anything, at least they would not do it as much as before.

However, for the local officials in Jinhua, the smaller officials, yamen runners and their idles, this decree is undoubtedly forcing them to eat and wear food from their mouths. Especially for the idles, these people are not in the official government. They rely on assisting the little officials and yamen runners to make money by doing business. This decree means that the proportion of their income will be reduced a lot.

Spring plowing has not officially begun, and it is still a few months before the collection of summer taxes, so these dissatisfactions are still accumulating, and it is still a while before the outbreak. What will be known is the specific decision to requisition wasteland to establish sanitation centers, but it can be said that one stone stirs up a thousand waves.

Ruquan Pavilion, in front of the left front of the main gate of Dongyang County, marched into Yiwu. Chen Wen and Sun Yu had met with representatives of the six tribes of Dongyang and other gentry and people here many times. At this moment, Yan Zhiheng, the newly appointed magistrate of Dongyang County, gathered here with these people, and what they were discussing was the government orders just issued by Chen Wen and Sun Yu.

The government order to requisition wasteland to establish garrisons and farms was issued only a few days ago, but the gate of the county government was almost broken. Those who didn't know thought it was Yan's daughter who picked up a marriage proposal, but this news was really shocking, especially it involved a lot, and it soon spread throughout the streets and alleys, and even a more sensational version was heard.

"The difficulties of the county master, the commander and the mansion master can be understood by the villain, but most of the land in our family was passed down from ancestors and was recruited by the government. How can we meet the ancestors and ancestors?"

Yan Zhiheng was a little helpless about the rumors outside. Not only was the government orders discussed and completed by Chen Wen and Sun Yu alone, but they were directly implemented without soliciting opinions from other old camp officials. The most speechless thing was that they had to wipe their butts when something happened.

But Yan Zhiheng knew very well that if he wanted to gain a foothold here, the officials and soldiers from Dalanshan who were born in Dalanshan must first be held together. Otherwise, they would be defeated by local forces. At that time, Sun Yu would be fine, and they Ning Shao people would have to be excluded from the side. So even if they were unhappy in their hearts, he had to continue to establish prestige for the government.

Seeing the old man in front of him crying about his hard work and difficulty in cultivating the land, and to prevent larger-scale cries from appearing, Yan Zhiheng hurriedly explained to him and to everyone present.

"Dear elders, the government decree has stated that the land that the requisitioned by the Sir Chen and the Prefect Sun ordered are all the wasteland without owners, and the land in your home will not be involved. There is no need to worry."

After hearing this answer, the old man stopped crying, but a scholar not far away from him asked: "Students dare to ask the county master, this wasteland is requisitioned. Which piece of land is abandoned and which piece of land is not? The matter has the final say, the government office has the final say, or the county government has the final say, and I would like to ask the county master to explain it to us."

This scholar is the son of the Xu family of Shuangquan, one of the six tribes in Dongyang County. The six tribes in Dongyang County are very powerful in this county, and many people follow their horses. And this question is indeed a key point. After all, it is important to have the final say on the word "official", especially the army is involved. Martial workers have always been the most unreasonable. If the army decides whether the land is abandoned, then I am afraid that there will be no more land in Jinhua Prefecture that is not wasteland.

As soon as this statement came out, everyone stopped their discussions and waited for Yan Zhiheng's explanation. As the magistrate, Sun Yu had already informed him of this matter, so he was naturally very clear about the specific answer.

"This matter is naturally decided by the government office. For specific operations, the government office and the county office will send people to participate, and all the elders can also put forward opinions and suggestions on the review results. The garrison station only supervises from the side and will not participate in it in person."

After hearing this, everyone felt relieved. After all, the prefectures and counties under the leadership of the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty and the garrison office managed by the Five Army Governor's Office. Not to mention the difference between civil and military affairs, the political achievements of the tax collection are also assessed separately. Logically, the government and county corps will naturally be more favorable to the civilian households, rather than military households outside the jurisdiction.

However, once the land was involved, the matter was far from being as easy as imagined. Yan Zhiheng answered several questions next, but he was about to drink a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and a more difficult question was placed in front of him again.

"The county master, the old man has a relative's home in the mountains. He heard from him that some of the land in their village had already died. In addition, the Tartar officials have been levied over the years, so many people have plowed fields on these lands to support their families. What is the government going to do with such a thing?"

This problem does exist, it is a universal existence, not limited to the mountain village mentioned by the person who asked. Although Yan Zhiheng had just taken office, he had not seen such things on Siming Mountain. It was just that at that time they just needed the farmer to pay taxes, and it did not involve the issue of ownership.

Yan Zhiheng thought about it and then replied: "Sun Fuzun has never mentioned such matters to me, but I would like to ask you all to believe that the government will handle this matter well. After today's meeting, I will send someone to the city. There will be news in a few days. Please wait a while."

In this way, Yan Zhiheng tried his best to answer the answer, but he didn't know how to solve it yet. He also recorded it in person, saying that he would send someone to ask Chen Wen and Sun Yu clearly.

However, compared with the acquisition of wasteland and establishment of garrisons, gentry and people are still happy about the strict prohibition of corruption. The same amount of taxes was completely different from the ones when the political was Qingming Festival and the prevalence of **. The difference lies in these charges. Although the government order issued by the government office may not have much effect in the eyes of the gentry and people, the Ming army just recovered this place and needed prestige.

The word "prestige" is power and the other is trust. Previously, the Ming army defeated the encircled Qing army with a large number of new soldiers and under the disadvantage of military strength, and then wiped out the Fubiao camp, executed the captured Fubiao camp warriors, and recovered the entire Jinhua Mansion. The word "power" naturally exists; but now, the Ming army is credit, so the implementation of government orders will definitely be subject to increased supervision, and at least it will be less than normal.

But there are a few families here who are happy and sad. Some of them are quite a few families who serve as minor officials, yamen runners, or those who are idle officials, yamen runners, especially those who are idle. The "payment increase" has nothing to do with them, so they are naturally full of complaints. It is difficult to appeal to the magistrate in front of everyone, but after the end, they always say that to protect everyone's interests from harm.

However, no matter what, the problems encountered by Yan Zhiheng and other magistrates did not have much to do with the garrison, especially those military households with Yongyetian, who ignored this matter, because if nothing unexpected happens, they would not have to pay taxes within twenty years.

After the joint decree of Chen Wen and Sun Yu issued, the military families of the old camp outside Dongyang County and the people of the army resettlement camp were filled with joy. Whether it was the military family or the people of the army, as the remnants of the former Dalanshan Ming army, they would be the supporters of the last established Ming army in Zhejiang, now Zhejiang will be the beneficiaries of this series of decrees.

If you own the land, you can reap hope as long as you work hard. Even the military rent land that the people of the army will receive will not have to bear corvee labor while paying taxes, which is better than when they were in Siming Mountain. The only thing is that the land is still owned by the garrison. Although they followed the army southward and then followed the Ming army, Chen Wen announced on this ground that he would not recover the land, but the land was still from the garrison, which was far less at ease than the place where his name was written on the land deed.

However, compared with the land that the people of the army, soldiers, military martyrs, and disabled soldiers don’t need to pay taxes. The harvest is always owned by their own family. Even if the tenants need to farm, they can still collect tenant rent. After all, you can harvest without doing your own things. With this time, you can also make an extra income.

In a thatched hut on the east side of the resettlement camp, the widow of the Ding family and his son were saluting the tablet of Ding Keji, a veteran who was killed in the battle behind Siming Mountain Palace, telling the good news.

As Ding Keji's widow and only son, the Ding family and his son naturally enjoyed the treatment of pensions. This was what Chen Wen promised on Tiantai Mountain, and today it was finally implemented.

When the Ding family heard this good news, like other military martyrs, they were happy and crying. However, this was not because of the joy of crying, but because of the reward of sacrifice, the family members who had suffered from sacrifice could no longer meet.

However, it is naturally a good thing to be able to get pensions. At least for the wife of the Ding family, she, a weak woman, can support her only son with this land. If she saves some and does other work, she might even send her children to a school to study, which will change the fate of the family from then on.
