The manor economy of the Tang Dynasty was different from that in Europe. Most of the people in Europe were closed manors. The boss of the manor was like the lord and owned a large and complete piece of land.

Although some of the great landlords of the Tang Dynasty owned thousands of gluts of land, the land was broken by the government due to the equal land system. Moreover, the equal land system in the early Tang Dynasty was very strict. No one dared to annex the land of farmers. Generally, farmers could not survive, so they sold the land, and naturally became tenant farmers. Therefore, at this time, the land was annexed not to annex the surrounding land, but to merge everywhere, which caused the farmland to be intact.

"I think this is difficult to do. After all, these tenants are used to living in their own countryside. Even if the land can be exchanged, they may not be willing to move out of their countryside."

Yuanzhe shook his head and said.

Although there were serfs in the Tang Dynasty, serfs could not meet the needs of the big landlords at all, so they were hired farmers and tenants. The landlords only had the power of economic exploitation for these people, and they did not have human rights exploitation. They were not completely dependent. They still lived in their original place and cultivated the same piece of land, but had to pay rent to the landlords. In the past, Han Yijia also sold the land to the Wang family and paid a certain amount of rent every year. The farming was still in Meicun. If you let Han Dashan move, he might not be willing to move.

Han Yi smiled and said, "I remember that Guanzhong had a severe drought, and a large number of people moved. The court also ordered a ban on people from moving."

Yuanjie said: "That's because staying here is waiting to die."

Han Yi shook his head and said, "That's because it's not profitable to stay here. As long as they can get enough benefits, why don't they want to move out? This also shows that the people are unwilling to move out, which is pure nonsense."

Yuancang said: "Then what do you mean, give them money and let them move away?"

"This can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause." Han Yi shook his head and said: "The current tenant farmers are not completely dependent on us. We only have one rent in our relationship with them. This relationship is not conducive to our development. We can replace this backward model with a business model."

Yuanzhe frowned and said, "You mean the employment system?"

Han Yi nodded and said, "Not bad! How much money do we give them every month, how many hours they work every day, everything they produce belongs to us. In this way, they will get more, and we will be more convenient and manageable."

Yuancang shook his head and said, "This is not possible. In this way, the burden on our shoulders will be much heavier. What should we do if we encounter a natural disaster?"

In this tenant farming model, farmers are still very free, but the premise of freedom is that you have to bear the losses. Compared to the landlord, it is very exciting. I just collect rent every month. What you produce, more or less, has nothing to do with me. Han Yijia used to be like this. His farmland was washed away by water, and the landlord did not lose. The main thing is the rent. If you can't pay it, you will sell it.

Although Han Yi's employment model can make the tenant farmers more dependent on them and follow their arrangements, the landlords have to bear great risks. It is windy and rainy, and it has nothing to do with them. You have to pay me a salary every month unless you go bankrupt.

From a profit perspective, these are completely two opposite business concepts.

Han Yi smiled and said, "You are right, but this is a question that the little landlords consider. As one of the top wealthy businessmen in the world, our Yuan family must look at it longer-term. This employment system can produce centralized and planned production. Once it is formed, we will get more and can greatly promote our plan to advance south. Even if we encounter natural disasters, we will ignore the tenant farmers, which will cause human resources. What we need most now is human resources. Therefore, in that case, we will not be worth the loss. Why did I push the sacred gentleman contract in the court for the employment system? Moreover, in this way, we can absorb more tenant farmers."

Yuan Zhe and others looked at each other, but they were still a little confused.

Han Yi said again: "I will tell you a secret that belongs to my North Lane. In the near future, our North Lane will build at least ten large-scale workshops and recruit a lot of labor from the outside. Our goal is those tenant farmers without land. Our North Lane will attract them to my workshop with high treatment. If the Yuan family does not do this, it may be affected."

Yuanzhe was shocked and said, "If this is the case, you may offend many powerful people."

Han Yi said confidently: "I have my own way of doing this, but the employment system is imperative for the Yuan family. Once the employment system is adopted, we can send the slaves to Lingnan, and use the employment system to absorb more manpower to help us cultivate the land in the narrow village."

Yuancang hesitated: "This - maybe we have to inform the master and the others."

This has already involved the internal structure and distribution of interests of the Yuan family, and it is necessary to pass the resolution of the parliament.

Han Yi said: "Of course."

Yuanzhe said: "How to do land exchange?"

Han Yi smiled and said, "I believe this is not very difficult. As long as they are given enough temptation, they will still agree. I can even use this opportunity to make them our tenant farmers. I believe that a ten-year employment contract is enough to attract farmers who are scarce in the land. Regarding the money issue, Beixiang and Yuan family will soon reach a contract. At that time, Beixiang will invest a very large amount of funds to the Yuan family, which is enough to supplement this part of the losses. In short, our Yuan family should not limit our attention to these small profits. We plan to develop in the next few decades, or even hundreds of years. As long as we have productivity, land, and a mature business model, no matter how much money we have, we can make back."

In fact, Han Yi's plan is a bit similar to the Western enclosure movement, forcing the complete separation of productivity and means of production, but the methods are different and not so violent. After all, the Western enclosure movement is based on power. Now the most powerful is the court, and the laws issued by the court are equal-field systems and do not meet the conditions for enclosure movement. Therefore, Han Yi adopted a relatively gentle method. Of course, all this is based on the strength of the Yuan family. Any ordinary landlord who dares to play like this can really not be able to play, because it took too long to make a profit, and few people can afford it, even Han Yi can't afford it.

However, this plan can at least reasonably allocate productivity. Some families have a large population but have little land, and the farm work is very easy every year. They have to go out to find work to do it. However, some people have few people in their families. For the same land, they have to work hard to cultivate and plan in a unified manner, so this situation will not happen.

All this is mainly for the southward plan, rather than learning from the Western capitalist route.

In the end, they were convinced by Han Yi. It depends on whether Yuan Xi would pass. However, Han Yi was very confident about this. Under such an attractive southbound plan, he believed that there was no problem if he changed his business philosophy.

In fact, this is also the main reason why Han Yi chose the Yuan family. I don’t know if Yuan Xin did this on purpose. Anyway, according to Han Yi’s previous observations, the internal structure of the Yuan family is destined to be a family that expands externally. Because the Yuan family tries to avoid conflicts of rights and interests with the court, its development will definitely be greatly limited. Once it reaches the critical point, the internal internal of the Yuan family will definitely be corrupt, because they all feel that it has reached its limit and there is nothing to do. The children of the Yuan family will definitely turn from positive to negative, and their eyes will be focused on their own treasury. The Yuan family’s parliamentary system will definitely suffer a devastating blow and it will not be as united as before.

Many large families are divided due to internal decay and uneven property distribution. If the Yuan family wants to avoid this, they will definitely continue to expand and stimulate the children of the Yuan family. Why did Yuan Mudan initially propose to actively carry out surrounding trade and shift from raw material supply to commodities? This is all the hope of giving the Yuan family new vitality without conflicting rights with the court.

Han Yi's plan to move south is completely in line with the fundamental interests of the Yuan family. This plan lasts for decades, and everyone has something to do. They will not spend time in brothels every day and enjoy themselves everywhere. Instead, they will be more united inside. They will spend money to buy unity. Of course, the Yuan family is willing.

Next, everyone began to discuss how to absorb more tenant farmers and how to complete this land integration movement.

Because these are all young people, what young people ask for is excitement. This plan makes them very excited and the discussion is extremely intense.

During lunch, everyone was eating and discussing, which they were already accustomed to.

Suddenly, Han Yi looked at the empty seat next to him and suddenly remembered in his heart, why didn't Yuan Mudan come yet? He couldn't help but feel worried. But after a while, he immediately understood and cursed, "Damn it, this woman must be hiding in the house to rest, and she will come to harass me to sleep at night. I have to have a meeting during the day and be harassed by her at night. If this continues, I can't withstand a few days. It's such a vicious plan! No, I have to find a way to deal with it."

"Uncle! Uncle!"

Suddenly, when he heard someone calling him, Han Yi was stunned. Seeing that it was Yuanzhe, he asked, "What's the matter?"

Yuanzhe said curiously: "What are you thinking?"

Yuan Jie said, "My uncle must be thinking of aunt!"

"Stop talking!"

Han Yi took a look at the time and it was already afternoon and said, "Let's just be here today. I have to discuss it with my uncle and the others. After confirmation, we will discuss it carefully, but you must prepare more detailed information."

"oh."

Yuanzhe and others packed up their information and walked out.

When Yuanjie passed by Han Yi, he suddenly laughed and said, "I didn't expect that my uncle is still a passionate person. I didn't see him for a while now, and I didn't even have the time to get started. But the newlyweds are so we can understand. If you spend more time with your aunt, we will do it."

How could this guy say so much? Han Yi was about to scold this guy, but suddenly his eyes turned and he sighed heavily.

When Yuan Jie saw it, he was curious. When he saw Yuan Zhe and the others walked out, he hurriedly sat down and said very gossipedly: "Did you have encountered some difficult things? Tell me, maybe I can give you an idea!"

Han Yi glanced at him and said, "You won't say it out."

"Don't worry, my Yuanjie's mouth is notoriously strict."

Yuan Jie patted his chest and promised.

If you believe you, I will be finished! Han Yi sighed: "I'm not sure about it. I haven't slept all night last night."

"I haven't slept all night?" Yuan Jie said, "My uncle is so amazing. Yuan Jie admires me. I'll teach me a few tricks."

This lewd guy! Han Yi cursed inwardly, but said, "It's not what you think, I caught a mouse that has been overnight last night."

"mouse!"

Yuanjie was stunned.

Han Yi said: "Not that. I don't know when the mouse entered the house. I'm not afraid, but your aunt was so scared that she couldn't sleep. I not only went to catch it, but she didn't catch it for a night."

Yuan Jie scratched his head and said confusedly: "Auntie is not afraid of mice, like snakes, insects, rats and ants. My aunt is not afraid of them. She often cultivates flowers and soil. She has never seen anything before, so she is afraid of these."

Damn! Snakes, insects, rats and ants are not afraid of? This is a problem. Han Yi said: "Is that so? Then what are she afraid of?"

Yuanjie said: "What my aunt is most afraid of is crabs."

"Crab-Crab?"

Han Yi said in surprise: "This is impossible. Snakes, insects, rats and ants are not afraid of them, they are afraid of crabs. This is incredible."

Yuan Jie said, "Isn't it all my fault for the uncle? It is said that when my aunt was very young, one time, the uncle took a crab to scare my aunt. Not only did he scare her, but he also accidentally let the crab clamp her aunt's fingers. Since then, my aunt has been very scared when she sees the crab."

Han Yi said: "Uncle? Master Yuanbao?"

Yuanjie nodded.

Han Yi wondered, "Why did he do this?"

Yuan Jie shook his head and said, "No reason, uncle is just such a person. We have all been scared by him. I remember that on the day of my wedding night, he deliberately made a snake into my house, but I scared my wife. You are lucky to have your second grandfather pressed on it. Otherwise, would you think you could marry your aunt so easily?" Afterwards, he still felt a little regretful.

You know he did nothing? It turns out that the madman is a habitual offender, he is careless, he is careless! Han Yi is very unhappy!

"Ah! I get it!"

Yuanjie suddenly screamed in surprise.

Han Yi said in surprise: "What do you know?"

Yuan Jie said, "I know why my aunt deliberately pretends to be afraid of mice. She must want to try how much you like her uncle. Maybe the mouse was released by my aunt on purpose."

Three black lines suddenly appeared on Han Yi's forehead.

Yuanjie said: "Am I guessed wrong?"

Han Yi suddenly smiled and said, "Of course not. You guessed it too well, it must be like this. I often tell your aunt that among you brothers, you are the smartest!"

Yuan Jie said, "Everyone said so."

Shameless! Han Yi cursed secretly, casually said Yuan Jie, and then hurried out.

He came to a small hut in the other side of the beast garden and was about to knock on the door when he suddenly heard someone say, "You look for me."

Han Yi turned around and saw Liu Rufeng standing next to the house with his sword in his arms, hurried over, and said with a serious expression: "I need your help if there is something urgent."

Liu Rufeng said: "What's the matter?"
