Chapter 151 Establishing a Collective Farm

When Chen Ying heard this, he seemed to hear a very funny joke and laughed. After a long time, Chen Ying stopped laughing and said, "Do you really think the Crown Princess will be so unbearable?"

At least we learned from Chen Ying that Zheng Guanyin is a woman who knows the general and takes into account the overall situation. What's more, Chen Ying also knows that a huge family is not actually a solid piece of the matter. At least Zheng Guanyin, Zheng's father, Zheng Jibo and Zheng Rentai have already made five matches. In terms of blood, they actually have no relatives.

Of course, the most important thing is that Chen Ying was not prepared to break up with the Zheng family in Xingyang. When doing business, he paid attention to bargaining prices and repaying money by landing. In fact, this principle is not only suitable for the shopping mall, but also for the officialdom. He can kill corruption directly, and he doesn't care about anyone's feelings. The lives of these subordinate officials are in Chen Ying's hands, so they can only do it obediently.

After all, Xu Jingzong and Xu Shizhong were not Xu Jingzong in the Wuzhou period. They had a lot of differences in their knowledge and experience. Chen Ying just pretended to be very scary. Others were not scared, but Xu Jingzong was scared first.

Chen Ying did not act arbitrarily in appeasement of Henan, but instead asked Li Jiancheng for advice very seriously, causing Wang Shichong to live in poverty because of the recruitment of troops. The people in the 18 counties in Henan County were poor, and every household did not have the strength to farm spring.

Since the distance from Xin'an to Chang'an is not as far as Lingzhou, at most two days, Chen Ying's letter was placed on Li Jiancheng's desk. Li Jiancheng saw Chen Ying's detailed memorials with hundreds of pages in a dense manner, and Li Jiancheng's impression of Chen Ying was subverted again.

At first, Li Jiancheng thought that Chen Ying was a good general, and let him guard the border or the unification army stand alone, so Chen Ying could complete the task very well. However, Chen Ying kept silent in secret, built coal mines, blast furnaces and iron mine workshops, and restored the Qin Dynasty's road. Just when Li Jiancheng thought that Chen Ying was only studying the art of art, Chen Ying took a roar of thousands of words this time.

"Since ancient times, the Dingkou period has calculated that in some prefectures and counties, officials deliberately reduced their household registration in order to deceive political achievements or deliberately increased their household registration, and in some prefectures and counties, officials deliberately reduced their household registration in order to impose taxes. In this way, the Ministry of Revenue will summarize it again. The ministers in the court will modify and add or delete the emperor's likes and dislikes at that time and the needs of the current situation. The final number obtained is recorded in history, that is, the person who reports to the king on the same day. This number can only be used as the king and the king to participate in the supervision, and cannot be the original number."

"Generally speaking, if a politician is lenient and kind, the household registration will gradually become apparent, and if a harsh political person is lenient and strong, the household registration will gradually become hidden. Why? If a lenient and kind person is registered, the household registration can be protected by the law, and has a basis for business, and has a share in studying. There are many benefits. Therefore, the household registration will gradually become apparent; if a harsh political person is lenient, the law will not protect the people. The journey of studying and entering the officialdom is not smooth. Those who are registered will suffer all the records, and there are many disadvantages, so the household registration will be hidden.

There are three main ways to hide households in troubled times. They are tenants under the major clans, two are hidden in large merchants as slaves, and three are hidden in Buddhist temples as slaves. These three are the most identifiable ones. As for those who are scattered into the mountains, avoid being remote. They are unknowable numbers. That is, those who have not fled will hide in three or ten households in each village, and each household is hiding one or two cents in each household. The number of them can only be guessed and cannot be confirmed.

When Wang Gui saw this, he sighed: "I took back the attribution that General Chen could be a good general in the country. Now it seems that General Chen can be a general and a prime minister, so he can be a general and a prime minister."

Wang Gui looked at this heavy memorial and felt even more heavy. As a member of the Wang family from the Seven Sects and Five Hopes, he was very familiar with the behavior and habits of the aristocratic families. Wang Gui took Chen Ying's memorial and felt dilemma.

In theory, like Chen Ying, he would break through this window paper and offer out the hidden population controlled by various clans and aristocratic families. However, doing so would cause a big fuss.

Wei Zheng didn't know how to make a decision either.

Li Jiancheng thought for a while and said, "I will enter the palace and discuss it with Your Majesty!"

In fact, whether he likes Chen Ying's proposal or not lies in how Li Yuan considers it. If he is thinking about the eternal country of the Tang Dynasty, he should agree with Chen Ying's opinion, but Li Yuan will also have a headache. After all, if he wants to seize the world, he still relies on the support of major clans and aristocratic clans.

Chen Ying did not care about Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng's headache, but instead carried out reforms in the 18 counties in Henan. After the magistrates and county magistrates arrived in Xin'an, Chen Ying immediately convened a meeting for everyone. He said that the meeting was actually inappropriate, because the magistrates of each county and county magistrates did not let them speak at all and directly issued an order.

One was promulgated the one-year tax exemption law ordered by the Li Tang court. According to the Li Yuan's special pardon law, all taxes in the 18 counties of Henan County were exempted.

All counties and counties must fully pass this policy through the people of each county. As long as there is one household in one county, they will not know about the tax exemption order of the Li Tang Dynasty court. I am sorry, the county magistrate and the county magistrate were dismissed from their posts on the spot.

As the saying goes, a scholar encounters a soldier, and it is hard to explain it. Chen Ying did not have hypocrisy or snakes with the officials. He directly told the officials that if it was not like throwing a black hat, this policy must be conveyed to every citizen.

Although the Li Tang court was unavoidable, the labor service was inevitable. From now on, the counties and counties immediately went back and organized all the people, and began to clear the ditches while the spring plowing was still some time.

Chen Ying was not short of military rations. Li Shimin sent someone to transport 30,000 shi of grain. Chen Ying was not interested in only 3,000 shi of grain, and he had no intention of selling the grain. He took out the 30,000 shi of grain and organized more than 30,000 civilians to rest and rectify rivers and ditches in the name of repairing ditches. However, unlike in the past when the people were in labor service, they not only had to send people, but also brought their own dry food.

However, at this time, Chen Ying was actually using labor for relief. Each household had a standard of eclipse of three liters per day. In any case, every household would eat about one stone of grain in a month, and 30,000 strong laborers left home, which could save at least hundreds of kilograms of grain for the family.

Chen Ying's last order was a bit intriguing.

All refugees from various counties and their families were sent to Xin'an Camp. As for what Chen Ying wanted to do, Chen Ying didn't say anything at all.

Regarding Chen Ying's inexplicable order, the officials dare not disobey Chen Ying's order. These officials have received instructions from the head of the Zheng family. Chen Ying's visitor is not good this time, so he must not offend him. He is very likely to be troubled by Zheng's family.

Therefore, these officials were more obedient than listening to the imperial edicts of the court, and did not resist Chen Ying's orders, from promoting tax exemption laws, to organizing the people to clear ditches and sending refugees to Xin'an camp.

As long as officials pay attention to something, the implementation effect of this matter will be very fast.

Just the next day, Zheng Zai, the magistrate of Xin'an County, had already sent more than 230 households and more than 650 refugees to Xin'an Camp. As time went by, these refugees gathered more and more outside the Xin'an Camp. Seeing that there were six or seven thousand people outside the camp, Xu Jingzong finally couldn't help but ask: "General, what do you mean?"

Chen Ying smiled and said, "It's very simple, let them build a collective farm!"

In ancient times, productivity was low, and lower-grade fields were often only enough for farmers to make a living. Medium-grade fields had a small surplus. The most important source of "surplus grain" was produced by using less manpower. Therefore, the rulers attached the most importance to the upper-grade fields. Chen Ying had opened up wastelands and planted fields in Lingzhou, so he also understood this truth.

He was in Henan, because the power of the aristocratic families and aristocratic families was great, so he was preparing to build a collective farm with refugees.

Collective farms are very suitable for the restorative production development of major disasters or major epidemics. Of course, the news of Chen Ying's establishment of a collective farm spread quickly, and finally the Zheng family in Xingyang finally began to worry.
