One thousand and fifty-two bad news(1/2)
Hongmen County was in a mess in an instant.
A large population gathered towards Xinfeng, and many families migrated to Xinfeng with their families.
In just two days, almost a thousand households were planning to move to Xinfeng.
This scared the landlords in Hongmen!
They finally realized the seriousness of the matter!
If there are no tenants and slaves, who will farm for them?
Relying on the eldest young masters and young ladies in their family?
Obviously, this is impossible!
but……
They have no way to stop all this, so they will sue the lawsuit, who should they ask?
Official government?
Not to mention whether there is any yamen who dares to take on this case, even if it is taken, it is afraid that the official sitting in the high hall will be slapped and shouted: "Who is in the hall? Why do you sue me?"
Looking for the backend?
Now, their former backers have all pretended to be dead.
Some people are even busy cutting relationships.
There is no one who dares to speak for them!
Even though they had entrusted their connections, they went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find the enemy's enemy, thinking that the enemy would be friends, the person sent to contact was directly arrested by the Prime Minister's Mansion and threw him into prison, for "slandering His Highness the Grand Prince."
After finally spending a lot of money to pick people up and then find out the whole story, everyone felt a chill in their necks and their hair was upside down!
According to the person who had a lot of money to clear the relationship, it was: "Are you looking for death? You want to drag the Prime Minister's Mansion into the water at this time? Well? Is it a fool to be the Prime Minister's Mansion? Fortunately, the people you come into contact with are not of high level, otherwise, if Zhang Chiyou doesn't need to take action, the Prime Minister will kill you!"
It was not until this time that the wise men of them woke up.
Now, how dare the Prime Minister and the entire General Ershi system take the initiative to get involved in General Ying Yang’s affairs?
It's too late to avoid it!
If something comes to the door, in order to clear the suspicion and to transcend the matter, the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion will only be more ruthless than the Yingyang Group!
Why?
The answer is that General Ershi is now commanding the war with all his might, and the entire Ershi system has put the bet on the war.
Anything that may interfere or affect the front line will be regarded as a great enemy by them and will be given priority.
Now, what the Ershi Group fears most is to make a real contribution and to tear up the promises of General Yingyang, and even directly intervene in the Hexi War.
And they were foolish to deliver to the door, which was simply stupid. In the eyes of the Prime Minister and General Ershi, their behavior may even be understood as a farce of "the Yingyang system is directed and acted by himself."
It is reasonable to directly mark black and accurately mark grass.
So these people sadly discovered that their status in this country was no higher than those farmers who had been bullied, exploited, and exploited by them.
In the eyes of the top, the two are actually the same class.
They are all leeks, all ants.
Life and death are insignificant, and rise and fall are not worth mentioning!
Understanding this, these landlords and powerful people could only sigh and complain when they returned home.
But reality forces them to solve the problem.
Because, if the tenants ran away after the slaves left.
Then, their land will probably be completely harvested this year.
That is not only because the particles are not harvested this year, but also means that all the investment in the early stage has been wasted.
Water trucks, carts, seeds, fertilizers, etc. purchased at high prices for these lands are quite expensive.
There was no way. In order to prevent the tenant farmers from continuing to lose, some of these landlords had to start reducing rent and interest rates.
Even, I had to pinch my nose, carry rice, meat, oil and salt, and go door to door to speak nice things.
The land rent was directly reduced from 70% to 50%, and half of the interest on the money borrowed in the past was exempted.
He also showed his feelings for the villagers and ensured that he would treat his neighbors well in the future.
Then, further remittances to the point where as long as you stay, the land rent will be directly discounted to 40%, and the interest rate will be reduced by 70%, and compound interest will not be calculated.
This was how many people were persuaded, so some tenants were left behind.
As long as someone starts with rent reduction, it will be difficult to suppress.
Soon, the rent in the entire Hongmen began to drop.
There is no way, if you don’t reduce the rent, the tenant farmers will run away!
Without tenant farmers, no matter how much land they have, they will not have any profit or even lose money!
After all, the court never cared about any objective reasons.
The tax on manuscripts and land taxes distributed to the land must be collected. If they cannot be paid, the house will be searched and people will be arrested.
……………………………………
At this time, Zhang Yue and Liu Jin had already left Hongmen and began to cross the river and head for Wannian.
After the battle of Hongmen, Liu Jin was really eye-opening.
Along the way, I kept asking Zhang Yue to discuss the matter about Hongmen.
"Your wonderful strategy is really amazing!" Liu Jin praised: "Solve the problems of a county without any expression and impress the powerful people in the county!"
Just thinking about the embarrassing and embarrassed expressions of the landlords and gentry that Liu Jin only felt that his thoughts were clear and he was so happy!
What's even better is that this time, except for the evil landlords of Hongmen, all the participants made a profit.
Hongmen County has solved the disease of Shen Ke for many years and helped a large number of tenants and poor people to obtain relatively good land rent.
The burden on the people is directly reduced by half!
A large number of tenants and poor people followed the caravans from Xinfeng to work in Xinfeng.
In Xinfeng, it has obtained a large number of high-quality cheap labor.
For example, those slaves, travelers, and tourists are all very high-quality laborers, hardworking and stuttering. As long as you stutter, you can go from dawn to sunset.
The wages are pitifully low!
According to the contract they signed with Xinfeng and Hongmen.
They were workers who were seconded to Xinfeng County as Hongmen County and then sent to the workshops by Xinfeng County County Government.
The contract stipulates that they will unconditionally obey the government's allocation and management and work for the workshop for three years to repay the principal and interest that the government redeems them.
Of course, after the three-year period expires, in addition to being free, they will also receive a certain amount of salary based on their performance.
You will also learn technology!
This was a pie that fell from the sky for those poor servants who had been in the past.
For the governments in Xinfeng and Hongmen counties, this matter is also profitable.
Hongmen County seems to have paid a lot, but in fact, someone has already covered the redemption fee.
After spending 20,000 or 30,000 yuan to get the right to use a young and strong labor force for three years, the workshop owners tilted their heads to laugh.
In this, the only loser is the landlords and powerful people in Hongmen.
In addition to getting a bunch of Wuzhu coins, they suffered heavy losses.
Even those Wuzhu coins will be spit out soon!
Because Liu Jin has planned to investigate the land and population in Hongmen for a while.
This is his county, he can play whatever he wants!
Thinking of this, Liu Jin asked, "Zhang Qing, what do you think, I will do this in Wannian?"
When Zhang Yue heard this, he immediately smiled: "Your Highness, you have never been different from Hongmen, but that is Lingyi County!"
The advantage of Lingyi County is that the landlords and powerful people are not strong, while the self-cultivated peasant class is strong.
For example, in Nanling County, most of the landlords were like the old Zhang family in the past, but only a few hundred acres of land were killed by a thousand acres.
Land annexation and conflicts are not severe and are within the acceptable range.
"Ah..." Liu Jin couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and then he became excited again: "Where is the only one who goes to my father's territory?"
The prince has now left the capital, and his prince leads the county, and is temporarily governed by the prince's family order and the prince's subordinate officials.
As the grandson, Liu Jin is indeed qualified and capable of intervening in it.
But Zhang Yue shook his head and said, "Your Highness, don't be too hasty in everything! You have to eat one bite at a time! Now, the world's grain output is not too rich yet. Things like Hongmen are just talking slowly first!"
If you don’t talk about grain output, you must be a hooligan!
