Chapter 1516 Yunkai Yueming(2/2)
Cao Wenzhao pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I will go out of Beijing and two cavalry will be transferred back. If necessary, I will see how many shots the Myanmar elephant army can block my gun!"
This is what Zhu Xu meant. Sun Chengzong naturally had nothing to say, pinched the chess piece and said, "What else is there?"
Bi Ziyan Luozi said, "It's nothing. Sun Baigu will not be in a good situation in the future. You are the right assistant of the cabinet. Don't always be so idle and let people gossip."
Bi Ziyan is now indifferent to the official position, and his behavior is calm and freehand, and he is completely no longer as heavy as the twilight of a few years ago.
Sun Chengzong pondered and said, "In a few days, I will go south along the canal and chat with the generals and generals from all over the country."
Bi Ziyan nodded, saying that it was necessary to stabilize the army and ensure that there was no in case, and at the same time relieved the pressure of Sun Chuanting.
The court was busy with work, trying to relieve the rebound pressure of the gentry. Although the promotion work of departments at all levels slowed down, it recovered quickly.
Su Yanghang’s three prefectures.
Due to Wang Zhou's domineering behavior, countless gentry were frightened and worried day and night, and it was difficult to fall asleep.
Fu Changzong took this opportunity to meet with fifty gentry with the most land in Suzhou Prefecture. He had a banquet and gave both kindness and power, and finally made these gentry agree to "rental" the land to the court.
After these fifty were solved, the other gentry big and small had no power to resist. The land-sealing action of Su Yanghang's three prefectures was completed at a "blink of an eye" speed, which shocked the entire gentry class of the Ming Dynasty.
In mid-July, the sun above the Ming Dynasty is no worse than in previous years. It is as fierce as before. The land under the illumination seems to be about to burn. It feels difficult to breathe after walking a few steps outside and is unbearable for hot and hot.
The court's "land purchase order" is still in full swing, and opposition is still strong. Various incidents are emerging one after another, and the court is tired of responding to it.
Chengdu Prefecture, Chengdu County.
Sichuan was originally a country of Tianfu and has always been a wealthy place. However, under natural disasters, it is also the place with the most severe disasters and the most chaotic, second only to Shaanxi and Guizhou.
The imperial court's "land purchase order" was also promoted here, but the situation in Sichuan is quite complicated, with local gentry particularly stubborn, and various forces intertwined. Without the firmness and strong support of local governments, it is simply difficult to move forward.
Yuan Family.
The ancestors of the Yuan family were chieftains, and later naturalized as Han people. They had a name and surname in Sichuan, had rich family resources and countless land.
The head of the Yuan family this generation was a Jinshi in the Wanli period. He was appointed as a Yuanwailang. He retired for many years and was in his seventies. He was a strict and domineering head of the family named Yuanzheng.
He had three sons, but unfortunately he all died early, leaving only one grandson.
Grandson is a student at Chengdu University and graduated for two years. He is a firm supporter of the "New Deal".
It is called Yuansheng.
He stood in front of Yuan Zheng, looking at his grandfather sitting on the chair, and said with great pains, "Grandpa, why don't you understand? This is a major event for the country. It is an unprecedented achievement for the country and for the welfare of the people... The court is willing to pay enough silver dollars to buy land, so why should you hold it and not buy it..."
Yuan Zheng sat on a chair, holding a crutch with both hands, and his old face was expressionless, and said lightly: "This is the ancestor's property, the blood and sweat of his ancestors. You want to sell it now. This is an act of unfaithfulness and filial piety. What will you do to meet my ancestors underground after death?"
Yuansheng was choked and couldn't speak. After all, he finished speaking. Yuansheng said directly: "If you don't sell it now, I will definitely sell it once it reaches me!"
Yuan Zheng was furious and picked up the crutch and beat it. He roared: "I'm not dead yet, are you going to rebel?"
Yuan Zheng hugged his head, turned around and ran away.
Outside the city, a woman in her thirties looked at her second uncle who came to persuade her, holding her child, burying her head in the cradle, shaking gently, and turning a deaf ear to her words.
This second uncle had been twenty-five and six years old, and was a very passionate young man. He looked at his sister-in-law and said, "Sister-in-law, the government said that as long as you rent the 200 acres of land to the court, you don't have to do anything. You get thirty taels a year. Where can I find such a good thing? Also, my nephew will grow up in the future and will be admitted to the county school, and the tuition fee will not be charged. This is a matter of time before it comes to success..."
The woman seemed to be annoyed by the words, raised her head and said with a wooden face: "This is what your elder brother left for me. In the future, I will leave it to my son in full. Needless to say, I will not give it to anyone else, no matter what you say."
The young man was angry and helpless when he heard this, and he was really a headache.
...
There are countless such situations, and the imperial court's "land purchase order" faces the cruel resistance of reality.
But even so, it still failed to stop the court's acquisition. For nail households, the court adopted the method of easy first and difficult to get the land that could be collected as soon as possible.
By mid-August, in the Qingtian Group, the number of land available for distribution in the land account book in the group leader Li Banghua had reached 60,000 acres!
Among them, the most difficult ones, Nanzhili, Su Yanghang, etc., were basically completed. The measurement team was cleared in the fields all day long, busy and endless.
By the end of the year, the numbers in the account book in Li Banghua had reached '70,000', and he purchased nearly 70% of the land in the Ming Pass!
Although there are still many problems in this, the sound of counterattacks still excited the cabinet.
In the cabinet, Fu Changzong had already returned to Beijing, sat on the chair with a teacup in his arms, and said with a smile: "Seventy thousand million acres are enough. If these lands are divided, the gentry and wealthy families are afraid that they will lose the tenants, so they can only farm with their own hands."
Zhou Yingqiu was also very optimistic and said: "This year, the measurement team, household registration, disaster victim review, resettlement, procurement, etc., are basically skilled and have some experience. Next year, large-scale distribution will be launched."
"Yes, start from Liaodong, let them make a fuss in the pass, and see who will cry first!" King Jing has been under a lot of pressure recently and has a rare smile.
Not far away, Shen Xun listened to the rare relaxed and pleasant chats of the elders, and thought, "There is basically no pressure on the matter of dividing the land. I am worried about the back. Now there are many places and few people, so the young and strong farming may not be enough."
The territory of the Ming Dynasty was unprecedentedly vast, with the total number of land acres expanded by more than 1.5 billion mu. In addition, the emigration caused the emptiness of various places, so the number of land acres assigned by the people will inevitably be large, and it is very likely that they cannot plant it.
Sun Chuanting spoke at this time and said, "So, ploughing tools, oxen, etc. can reduce labor pressure, increase the land area, and the tools for farmers' income, and livestock should be encouraged and supported. The cabinet should organize a set of methods. Farmers should not escape under the disaster, and no one will grow them even if the disaster passes the land..."
Zhou Yingqiu said, "I will ask the staff department to do it, and then let the five departments discuss in detail and come up with a specific method."
Sun Chuanting nodded and looked at Fu Changzong and said, "Gei Fu, you will meet Li Banghua later and ask him to show me the plan for next year. There are three things to adjust to the ministers. Find time to hold an enlarged meeting and get out the air."
The Qianqing Palace had agreed to Sun Chuanting's proposal to adjust the positions of the three ministers of the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Personnel.
Fu Changzong had no objection and said, "Cao Dingjiao's position remains unchanged. I plan to transfer Wei Xuelian and Meng Zhaoxiang to the Ministry of Revenue to serve as doctors."
These three people are also leaders of the Zhengyuan Department. Although they are not as dazzling as Qin Zhengyi and advance as quickly as possible, everyone is optimistic about their future.
Sun Chuanting looked at Fu Changzong calmly, thought for a moment, and said, "Okay."
As for why Cao Dingjiao did not move, it was because Cao Wenzhao was deliberately suppressing and had greeted the cabinet ministers in the cabinet.
Cao Wenzhao, the future Marshal of the Grand Marshal's Office, was the right assistant of the cabinet, and even Sun Chuanting wanted to sell some face.
In the few words of these big names, the major personnel changes at the end of next year were confirmed.
