"The Champion Hou, the military system of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and the collection of rents and mediocre adjustments are all based on equal land. If the equal land is destroyed and the land annexation is serious, the people will inevitably be displaced and the finance and taxation will be gone. Naturally, the prosperous times will not exist. All generations have tried their best to curb annexation. Champion Hou, do you think this strategy will not work?"

Before he knew it, Li Gu had already used a tone of asking for advice.

An old man in his fifties worked all morning, with mud and sweat mixed on his face. How miserable it is? What is rare is that he did not complain, and Ye Hua couldn't bear to be shady.

"Mr. Li, I am not saying that equal land is not good, nor am I against suppressing mergers... For example, the land granted by the Tang Dynasty was divided into Yongye fields and the land divided by the land. Yongye fields cannot be traded casually, just to prevent mergers, but I want to say, it is very difficult, very difficult!"

Li Gu nodded, "Only by doing things for it, you should implement it with great determination and perseverance!"

Li Gu said it passionately. Literature has had such a problem since ancient times. He never thought he was wrong. Even if the proof was not feasible, they would stubbornly think that the whole world was wrong. That was why everyone was drunk and I was awakened!

If this kind of stubbornness is just about studying, it doesn't matter. If it is placed on national affairs, it will cause trouble. The more stubborn and trouble it will be, the greater the trouble, such as the stubborn and her husband...

Ye Hua was not sure if Li Gu was such a person, so he could only do his best to lobby, hoping that he could listen.

"Mr. Li Xianggong, after the founding of the country in the past dynasties, he would implement equal land to meet the land requirements of the people and resolve the root causes of the peasant uprising... But after the world is peaceful, every household will get the land. Even if it is the same size, some people are willing to work hard, some people refuse, some places have good times and some places have many disasters. In the future, the situation will be very different. People who live well have accumulated accumulating will have to buy land. In order to cope with the troubles in front of them, they will have to sell land... As the saying goes, 800 landlords for a thousand years, and human nature is like this, how can they go against the will of heaven?"

Li Gu was familiar with history books and was an official for many years.

How could it be ignorant?

In fact, the equal-field system in the Tang Dynasty was destined to be difficult to last from the beginning.

First of all, there are problems with the design of Yongyetian andkou land distribution. Although Yongyetian cannot be bought or sold in principle, it can be sold in special circumstances, and it cannot be prohibited if the opening is opened. As for the opening, the imperial court stipulates that it is 80 acres, but the situation is different in different places, especially after the population soars, it is impossible to have enough land to be distributed to the people.

What’s even more fatal is that although the rule of dividing the land is to be handed over after death, can it be really done? If it can be reclaimed and distributed equally, how strong should the administrative ability of the Tang Dynasty be?

Without computers and insufficient civil servants, it is impossible to achieve it at all.

This is only a small part of the problem of Tsubasa Ring.

In fact, the equal land order is uneven at all. According to the size of the official position, the land area of ​​the clan and nobles, the royal relatives, the royal relatives, the country and other relatives are different, but they are all much larger than that of the ordinary people. There are also temples, which not only have land, but also exempt taxes and labor service. Many people donate land to temples to avoid taxes... Adding up so many loopholes, the equal land order will last for at most two or three generations, and collapse is inevitable.

The system of government troops built on equal fields and renting and placing in a mediocre manner was difficult to maintain. There was no way to appoint Hu people. As a result, an Anshi Rebellion destroyed the prosperity and majesty of the empire...

It’s not that Li Gu didn’t understand, but he always felt that there could be a way to curb mergers. Maybe he could succeed in what others could not do, or after some time, there would be a smarter way to emerge.

Is it a literati? It is inevitable that you like innocent fantasies.

And Ye Hua is about to wake Li Gu up!

Let me ask, a young man who doesn’t understand a word knows that he wants to save money to buy land. With land, there will be everything... What about the others? When everyone is crazy about the land, even though the world is big, there is so much land that can be divided. Even the emperor who is the Supreme Emperor with Tianxian in his mouth cannot oppose more than 90% of the people.

Li Gu's forehead was sweating, more than he had just started working.

He racked his brains, but had to admit that what Ye Hua said made sense.

"Champion Hou, as you mean, don't you just need to equalize the fields and the soldiers in the palace?"

"No!" Ye Hua shook his head quickly, "Gong-gong Li, the root of the world's turmoil is uneven land. If the dynasty changes, how can we not be able to equalize the fields! As for the government soldiers built on equal fields, it is also a good way. Including suppressing annexation, this is a good rule, so we can't be careless!"

Li Gu smiled angry, "Since they are all good politics, what are you against?"

Ye Hua rolled his eyelids and said, "No matter how beautiful a boot is, can you wear it out? I think you should walk on two legs, and you should not focus on one aspect."

Li Gu asked: "What is the other leg besides plowing the fields?"

"Business and Commerce!"

Ye Hua gave the answer easily, "Mr. Li, didn't you ask me just now, why didn't you ask the people to send food and vegetables? The reason is very simple. The people don't trust us. Last year, the imperial court gave the fields. After a year of hard work, the people got a harvest. They paid the imperial grain field rent, filled the warehouse at home, and stored a lot of vegetables. Many people were temporarily satisfied..."

If you are wandering and wars are constantly coming, you can settle down. What other extravagant wishes are there? The people are already scared and have suffered. They dare not leave their homes, and they dare not run to the capital to sell things.

Ye Hua could only send someone to the village, and exchange it with the people for real money and real money. When the people got the money and believed them, the situation would be completely different.

"Actually, I was wrong. I thought that people who have settled down would think of eating well, dressing well, and opening more shops in the capital to make money. After walking in the countryside for a few days, I realized that most people do not think so. They would rather drink porridge and eat pickled vegetables and lumps than save money and buy land. Even if there is more field and produce more food, they will tighten their belts and make more land!"

"Take that young man for example, if he was lucky enough, he saved enough money, bought wasteland, and cultivated for five years, the land became more and more abundant, and his family accumulated more and more. He worked hard. When he was in his forties or fifties, he might become the largest landlord in Murakami!"

Ye Hua discovered that there are actually two types of landlords. One is to work hard and work hard, and several generations have accumulated hard. As for the other, it is to rely on power, seize and use all kinds of methods, seize and cheat everywhere, and commit all kinds of evil. These two types of people are not easy to generalize.

"Mr. Li Xianggong, when the villagers were willing to take out the goods to exchange, there were some smart farmers who took the initiative to stand up and help us purchase grain and vegetables, and buy everything we wanted. With them, we are more efficient, and other villagers are also free from the hard work... But I also have to guard against these people, lower prices, and even use forced means to force the people to take out the food. So now I go to the village to understand the situation, just look at these situations. If someone is behaving badly, he must immediately terminate the collection qualification, and the serious ones must be handed over to the yamen for law."

Li Gu listened carefully, and when he heard it at the end, he suddenly felt like he was struck by lightning, and suddenly realized...

"It's amazing, it's amazing! These people who come out to collect food are actually businessmen who travel around the world! The Champion Hou went down to investigate and prevent them from harming the people is to perform the supervisory duties of the court! The principle of governing the world from the small to see the big, is actually in the middle of this small business! I have been in the fifty years and read thousands of books, but it is not as good as what I have obtained in this half day. I am so ashamed, ashamed!"
