Sweep the World

Chapter 715: : All living beings

It’s no secret that there are good martial artists today. Joining the main army (standing army) is even a small **** in a hundred acres of land. The battlefield is never hesitating to rewards, not to mention the promotion of social status, and the many benefits of family members in the village.

"The son of my eldest brother's second brother-in-law's third aunt. He is a member of the army when he enters the army to grant him the land. Every year, the government visits the door to give condolences to him. It can be described as meticulous."

"The son of my second uncle's third brother-in-law and fourth aunt. Six servants and maidservants have contributed to the battlefield. He drives hundreds of acres of farming and can usually walk for cattle and horses."

The so-called ox-and-horse walking is a term used in the Western Han Dynasty. It originally referred to a dispatcher who was more senior than a certain noble eagle dog, and later evolved into a servant who served him. Slaves do not only refer to women, but slaves of men and women.

The people who were talking, they worked hard to dig the dirt, wield their hoes, and they could chat with the people around them at the same time. They come from all corners of the country, and they form a labor group as a fellow villager. The group leader is usually the maid, wandering, and pavilion head in the village, and up from the county.

Most of the small people's small talk will be comparisons, who can have a long time to talk about who has a good life, and who has any capable people. Usually, it comes from hearsay, so there is a reason to hear it from which brother-in-law and aunt.

It’s not complicated to see who’s doing well now. The most obvious manifestation is getting the title.

There are too many people who have nothing. After gaining the title, their residences are fully funded by the government, and they have land that can be inherited from the family, and there are servants who can be sent at will.

People will have expectations for a better life, want to win the title? The easiest way to change the trajectory of one's life in Han is to join the army and enlist in the army. After registration, there will be many practical benefits, not to mention, military members can really get a lot of preferential treatment in the countryside.

It is a new policy of Yuanshuo six years later that one hundred acres of land can be obtained by joining the army. It was originally only ten acres of land. Later, didn't the territory of the Han Kingdom be expanded again and again? Many decommissioned soldiers are arranged in areas with large and human land, and the center has increased the number of ten acres to 100 acres.

There is also a new policy that is willing to move to new territories, and the government is also willing to increase the number of acres. The farther away from Han mainland, the more favorable the policy.

"There are gifts for every year. For example, the family of the fourth aunt of my second uncle's third uncle's brother-in-law received a corbel in the last winter solstice. It is a big corbel!"

Corbels are just a manifestation. More often, military members can get a wide variety of condolences. They directly send money or give cloth the most times, but they all like cloth.

"Ho'erlang's family deserves preferential treatment, whoever refuses to accept it will make life difficult with everyone!"

"Yes! Yes!"

After the chaos raged by Hulu, contemporary people are obsessed with the control of force and firmly believe that the Han should have their own powerful arms, and there must be no more Hulu invasion without resistance.

Contemporary soldiers have indeed been on the battlefield all the time. Bloody battles have finally eliminated and expelled the Hulu who oppressed the Han. For most people, it is a good society without the Hulu on their heads. There are many reasons for this. People are willing to give everything.

"I'm thinking about it, waiting for the end of this conscript, and the next conscript I should become a county soldier."

"What's the use? Can I go to Ah San?"

"If I don't go to Asan, I will also have the opportunity to go to the grassland, to the northeast."

"Don't fight a big battle! Becoming a county soldier can only be a local soldier."

Said so much, in fact, in order to be able to change the trajectory of one's life, of which the desire for land is the greatest, but in Han, no matter how rich, you can't get land. You can only get the reward of land by going to the battlefield and killing the enemy.

Originating from the foundation of the twentieth nobility, and the Qin Empire once fell into the embarrassing situation of having military merits and not being rewarded, the Han state's control of land is definitely the strongest in all dynasties.

Three years after Yuanshuo, the country has been engaged in land redemption. Whether it is a rich family or a noble family, one of them is measured under the supervision of the sword. Based on the actual head of the family, each person has 200 acres of land. , The more will be redeemed by the state.

In the 6th year of Yuanshuo, the Han army attacked the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the southern part also did land surveys. Once there were tens of thousands of hectares of land, there would be more than two thousand acres left.

In the eighth year of Yuanshuo, there were no more non-military heirloom families in the Han native land holding more than 10,000 acres of land.

Liu Yan did this to get the full support of the military. After all, the military is the easiest group to be rewarded for credit. The rest of the class even opposes and dare not speak up. No one wants to be targeted by the military. The South that wants to oppose the most is the South. You Huan Wen repeatedly raised his butcher knife and slashed.

The amount of land under the family's name is directly linked to the reward for merit, and it is fully accepted by the group united by Liu Yan. They themselves are part of an interest group, and the policy of rewarding for merit is naturally beneficial to them, and only those who are excluded from the group should cry.

Regardless of whether the latter Sangyu is really targeting Ran Min or anyone else, he has done a good thing for most of the people anyway, that is, being recruited into the county soldiers can also get land rewards, although the number of acres of land is not comparable. The standing army, but most people at least have legal access to land.

For now, in addition to the land obtained for service, it can only be leased from the government. The vast majority of people cultivate land from lease, and there is no land under their own name at all.

It is Liu Yan's proposition to control land ownership. The reason is to encourage the Han people to kill the enemy and make meritorious service. To put it bluntly, it is a policy set for the construction of the army, one country, one principle, and one righteousness. In many cases, policies need to make concessions for the times. For example, even the county soldiers can obtain land.

Liu Yan is not unaware of people’s desire for land. On the one hand, he needs to maintain the foundation of the 20th-rank system, which is to do nothing and ensure the army’s vigorous and warlike spirit; Such capable groups such as powerful and aristocratic families are looking for another way out, such as turning their attention to industry and commerce.

The ancients have long had the consciousness of "no agriculture instability, no work, no wealth, no business, no life", but "agriculture" is still better, "work" and "business" have always been despised objects.

Han is not allowed to obtain land without merit. The rich and powerful families dare not stretch their hands on the land, but their pursuit of wealth is impossible to stop. Without Liu Yan's reminder, they will look at workshops and business affairs.

Four years after Yuanshuo, various workshops in the north have emerged one after another. That is an effect after the inability to obtain land. The country is forcing powerful families to find another way out and get the result Liu Yan wants. .

The state controls the land, and people who do not own their own land can only go to work except renting it from the government. The seasons that belong to agriculture are focused on spring plowing and autumn harvesting. In the other two seasons, you can go to work and make money instead of sitting on the threshold to catch lice.

The development of "work" will drive society forward. If they want their own profits to increase, they must study how to reduce costs while the products are accepted. That is a process of increasing productivity, and it is also a process of technological progress. Base.

With commercial products, someone needs to purchase them. Merchants are a group responsible for purchasing commercial products and selling them separately. Both "workers" and "businessmen" get profits from their own labor, and the state also receives taxes from them.

In fact, Han was only short of food and never lack of money. It was because too many families were forced to switch to "gong" and "shang". At one time, some officials thought it was bad because of "gong" and "shang". "Business" occupies too much manpower, leading to a shortage of food. The officials who said that basically went home to eat on their own. It was not Liu Yan who did it. It was Xu Zheng, who was a lieutenant, and Cai You, who was Zhisu, who worked together.

The military accepts the rise of "work", of course, because industrial development is beneficial to the military, and at the same time, it is also unbearable for anyone to point fingers at land distribution.

Cai You's reaction will be so fierce. It is the two groups of "gong" and "business" who are constantly contributing small money. Whoever prevents the part of Zhisu internal history from obtaining small money is their main enemy.

"Big rocks, huge trees, etc. are all transported by the road." Cai You is at the construction site in New Chang'an at this moment. He is very proud to introduce to Liu Yan, who is dressed in casual clothes, "The road is because of the work. With the rise, there are great talents imitating the pre-Qin Dynasty."

The pre-Qin road is an ancient version of tracked roads. Timber tracks are laid on the roads, and wheels are specially made for use. A special horse-drawn car drives on the road and can walk thousands of miles in a day.

The Han country is building two national highways, including the Chi Road, which means that the construction of the Chi Road is far more difficult than ordinary roads, and the project is at the end.

For the construction of Chidao, Liu Yan personally took photos of the horses, and he did the design, but he painted samples based on modern railways, only using materials instead of wood products. Now he heard that someone had seen Chidao's classics before the Qin Dynasty, and he was surprised at the same time that he was confused.

Cai You had to advocate for the development of "industry", just as the military had to advocate for war. He still brags with reason and evidence that the annual tax amount is there, and again it will reduce the conflicts caused by the people's small holdings of land. After all, working part-time is also one of the ways to support a family.

Of course, Liu Yan knows the road, and he also knows that the length of the road from New Chang'an to Qinling is more than 70 miles. The main reason for the construction of this road is that the construction of the palace is indispensable for giant trees.

"Great talent?" Liu Yan came to be interested: "Called a few people to see."

When Cai You mentioned the incident, he was obviously prepared in advance, and turned around to give orders to his entourage, and soon they were brought up.

The visitor is an official wearing the official uniform of a servant man. Because people are relatively older now, it is actually impossible to judge the age from his appearance. Cai You introduced his name, age and origin, which really made Liu Yan I was greatly surprised.

"Chen Ma Zihuan, see the king!" Ma Zihuan, who was born in Qiang nationality, is a Han in terms of dress, words and deeds. His background is not small. He designed and built the palaces of Xiangguo and Yecheng for Shihu. .

Liu Yan looked at whether he was a Han Chinese, he looked at his identity with Han thought and culture, not his ancestry. He believes that as long as he speaks the Han language and demands himself by Han etiquette, his thoughts are rooted in the Han, and he is a Han.

Of course, whether it is Han people depends on their appearance, at least their appearance should not be too different from Han people, especially in terms of skin and hair color. This is also the lingering hatred of the Han people after suffering from the white-skinned Jie tribe.

Liu Yan has never been stingy with capable people. After a while of encouragement, he asked curiously: "Where can Qing see the road?"

How can Ma Zihuan dare to conceal a trace? It is said that he came across it accidentally from Yao Yizhong's family library, and said that the reason why Yao Yizhong has a book to record the journey is because Yao Yizhong asked Shihu for it. As for where Shihu came from, I don't know.

During the reign of the Sima family, there was a "Shenzhou Lushen". The capital city of Luoyang was attacked by the Huns Liu Yuan. The emperor was taken to the toilet and the treasure house fell into the hands of the Huns. The Southern Huns have been dogs for the Han people for two to three hundred years. They know the importance of the advanced nature of civilization better than the savage and ignorant Huren.

Later, the Jie tribe defeated the Xiongnu and became the new ruling race in the Central Plains. As the former slave race of the Huns, the Jie tribe is truly barbaric. They are not as aware of the importance of the Han civilization heritage as the Southern Huns. Fortunately, the Qiang tribe knows a little bit. The Qiang tribe has received quite a lot of Han civilization classics. .

The Han country ruled by Liu Yan did not kill the family, and the books copied were countless, but those who were "clothed southward" were taken to the south after the Shenzhou Lu Shen.

In general, that Shenzhou Lu Shen’s blow to the civilization of Zhu Xia was still very big. Not only was the Han people wiped out from the body to the spirit, but also a lot of ancient books were lost, and many ancient craftsmanship were also destroyed by the Hulu. ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Ma Zihuan met "Tianyan", and was encouraged by a mellow smile. He left very excited. After walking a long way, he came back to his senses, as if he had forgotten some of Cai You’s explanations. ?

Cai You made such a show. First of all, Ma Zihuan is indeed very capable, but the most important thing is that Liu Yan is looking for a "beauty" and intends to pull out Ma Zihuan, a representative figure, to warm up. However, Ma Zihuan seemed to have forgotten business affairs, and his liver hurts with anger.

Law school can govern the world, Huang Lao can govern the world, and Confucianism can dominate the world. Cai You doesn't think the Mohist school can resurrect, but the power of "gong" can be advocated, at least to find "beauties" on the king's trip. Occupies a place under the great world. He wanted to remedy it, but saw Liu Yan staring at the scene of working in a daze, unable to speak for a while.

"A few people see this." Liu Yan didn't want to talk about the suffering of the people and the suffering of the dead. Corridor is a responsibility and obligation, and it is not that the recruitment is not paid. He saw people in more than one place singing and laughing while they were working, and a simple smile appeared on his face: "In a disaster year, the large-scale implementation of work-for-relief is a good governance of the country."

Of course, Liu Yanshi would definitely ignore other scenes, such as slaves wailing under the whip of the overseer...
