Ye Hua has been in Jinling for a few days, and in addition to fiddling with all forces to prevent rebellion, he is more concerned about what happened in Jinling under Li Hongji's rule.

Without investigation, there is no right to speak, Ye Hua has always been very disgusted with literati who speak in the vernacular, and they can't solve problems by relying on imagination.

The investigation for him was Zhao Er and the embroidered messenger, and the old Taoist Chen Tong also came from Suzhou, in order to help Han Xizai escape, Chen Jian was in Jinling for a long time and knew the situation very well.

"Master Hou, tell me, how many people does Jinling have?" Chen asked.

Ye Hua shrugged his shoulders, "Up and down the Southern Tang Dynasty, they are all known as millions, but according to my judgment, there should be more." ”

"That's right!" Lao Dao nodded vigorously, "Not counting the merchants and hawkers who pass by temporarily, there are at least one and a half million people in Jinling City!" Among them, there are at least 300,000 young people who are unemployed! ”

"How can there be so many?" Ye Hua was surprised, one and a half million, more than Kaifeng!

Chen Tuan said angrily: "You should be the people who are willing to go to the city, their fields are deprived, mulberry seedlings are planted, what should the people without land do?" It's not that I squeezed into the city, came to the feet of the Son of Heaven, and begged for food! ”

Zhao Er continued: "The workshops in Jinling City do need some weavers, but they don't need so many people. There are too many young people outside, who can only do some odd jobs or petty theft, and most of these people have joined the Tangkou gang, and people in the city die inexplicably every day. ”

Anyone who has studied a little history knows about the incident of sheep eating people.

From the perspective of later generations, raising more sheep provided valuable raw materials for the textile industry, and at the same time added a lot of free labor to the city, although cruel, but it was also a kind of progress.

But if you really put yourself in it and become a member of the bankrupt farmers, it is estimated that you will not have this kind of thought, and there will only be deep resentment!

The land cultivated by the ancestors was taken away, and the dependence on livelihood disappeared.

How can they live?

Only from the countryside to the county seat, from the county seat to the state capital, and finally all converged in the capital.

At least at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the best place, gold and silver are everywhere, there are more opportunities, even if you can't find a job, you won't starve to death, and the imperial court will open a porridge factory.

Even in later generations, people still like to gather in first-tier cities, in this era, the common people are even more blind, crazy influx, Jinling City has been overwhelmed.

In fact, when Ye Hua's army came, why could he trade with the city, except for Chen Qiao's weakness, he really didn't dare to prohibit it. If you have the ability to close the four gates, you can't get in salt, you can't get in grain, you can't get firewood, you can't get silk, and in a few days, the displaced people all over the world will rebel, and hundreds of thousands of displaced people are enough to completely destroy Jinling City!

This is the terrible consequence of blindly promoting industrialization and blindly engaging in sheep and cannibalism!

If we do not solve the contradiction between man and land, and rashly encourage industry and commerce, not only will we not be able to enrich the country and strengthen the army, but will only cause endless harm!

"We must get these hundreds of thousands of people out of Jinling!"

Ye Hua said.

Chen Qian rolled his eyelids, "What do you want to do?" After leaving Jinling, they had no place to stand, and immediately starved to death. ”

"Then give them a place to stand on the cone!"

Ye Hua said without hesitation: "It is urgent to implement Juntian in Jiangnan!" ”

"What about the merchants?" Chen Jun asked Ye Hua rhetorically, "Do the conditions you promised Su Shang count?" You have divided all the fields, and the common people have gone to grow grain, where do you get the raw silk, tea, and cotton you want? Where do the workers in the city come from? ”

Chen Luan, an old Taoist priest, is enough to be a prime minister in terms of vision, if he doesn't have such cultivation, he can't maneuver among the powerful, like a fish in water.

It's just that Ye Hua already has a belly case.

He smiled, "If you burn your eyebrows, look at the immediate first, and don't hurry up to solve the problem of the displaced people, if someone takes the opportunity to incite the people to rebel, my ass will be on fire." ”

After speaking, Ye Hua got up and walked outside, Zhao Er followed step by step, as for Chen Tuan, the old Taoist priest didn't go, he saw through it, Ye Hua was going to kill people again.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, let them do the things that do evil, and the old way will never be contaminated with killing."

Chen Jun got a black dog, boiled a full pot, and hid in the study to gnaw on the dog's thighs and eat it...... The old Taoist priest is dashing and eats happily, but some people become ants on a hot pot and are restless.

Feng Yanji is the one who is uncomfortable.

He hates Ye Hua now, and he hates it so much that the roots of his teeth itch.

This little rabbit cub simply has no conscience, and he is ruthless!

The old man helped you and took Jinling, and you gave me three ivory cards. The old man is also confused, and he actually believes your words, and helps you enter the city wholeheartedly.

And the result! You now reuse Han Hee-jae, Pan Seung-woo, and Seo Hyun.

They all spread out, and they wanted to clear the acres of land, and the gentry would pay for the grain in one.

Who's Qingzhang?

It's not an old man's yet!

Those guys didn't hold back their fart, they will definitely take the opportunity to retaliate.

Thinking about it now, Li Hongji may not be good, but if it falls into the hands of Ye Hua, it is the meat on the chopping board!

This is called a wrong move, and the game is full of frustration.

Feng Yanji even hoped that Li Hongji could win the best, and when the time came, he would fight back, arrest Ye Hua, and take Ye Hua's head to ask for credit, maybe he could get Li Hongji's forgiveness.

Feng Yanji privately sent someone to Yangzhou to inquire about the news.

He didn't know that on the day he sent people to Yangzhou, Chai Rong had already broken Li Hongji's 300,000 horses and besieged Yangzhou, and the old guy's last hope was also disappointed.

"Feng Xianggong, take the liberty to visit, are you okay?" Ye Hua smiled and said: "There is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure." Song Xianggong has fallen ill, you have to hold on! ”

Ye Hua patted Feng Yanji's shoulder vigorously, very polite, Feng Yanji could only smile, "Thank you for your concern, the old man is still tough, how can the Hou Ye have time to go to the old mansion?" If there is anything, just let the old decay go. ”

"Hahaha!" Ye Hualang laughed loudly: "It's not a big deal, it's still something that Master Xu mentioned, I think about it, there are many disadvantages in Jiangnan, and for today's plan, there is only Qingzhang Tian Mu and implement Juntian." Ye Hua leaned over and said with a smile: "Feng Xianggong obeys the mandate of heaven, I hope you can take the lead and set an example for the gentry in Jiangnan!" ”

Feng Yanji's expression stiffened slightly, and he grinned at the corners of his mouth and said: "Master Hou, since this is the case, the old man is willing to dedicate the eight hundred hectares of professional land in his family to Master Hou and talk about his heart." ”

Ye Hua laughed, "Feng Xianggong, you are wrong about two points, first, it is not I want it, but the court wants it!" Second, 800 hectares is too little, right? ”

Feng Yanji immediately said: "Master Hou, the old man is an official in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the job field he has obtained over the years is only 800 hectares, and I have paid it all, if you don't believe it, Lord Hou can go to check, and the old man will never dare to deceive Lord Hou?" ”

Feng Yanji said the righteousness and strictness, but Ye Hua still shook his head.

"Feng Xianggong, this bit of land is too inconsistent with your identity? Your Feng family's land is far more than that, right? ”

Feng Yanji's heart fluttered suddenly, and the cold sweat on his sideburns came down.

He pondered for a long time, and then said: "Master Hou, the old family does have some land, but all of them are accumulated by the ancestors, and there is no slightheartedness!" Our Feng family has been passed down from generation to generation, and the style is innocent and well-known. Feng Yanji paused again and said, "Master Hou, although the old man is a subordinate, my heart is towards the Great Zhou, and I have no second intentions. I mean...... Li Hongji acted perversely, was angry and resentful, killed the first emperor, wantonly bullied scholars, deposed hundreds of officials at every turn, fierce and cruel, absurd and unreasonable. His defeat was self-inflicted, and it seems, it seems, it seems......"

"It seems that Da Zhou should be more generous to scholars, and it is better not to promote Juntian? Right? Ye Hua smiled and asked: "But the Central Plains have all been implemented, how can it not be implemented in Jiangnan?" Feng Xianggong, you give me an idea! ”

Feng Yanji also thought about it seriously, "Master Hou, do you think this is okay, all meritorious soldiers, they should get the land, no less, it can be divided from the public land, and the old man will also persuade his colleagues to donate the land...... As for those ordinary people, there is no need to bother. ”

"Oh? Then they didn't eat or drink, what if they made trouble? ”

"No, don't worry." Feng Yanji said: "Now that Jiangnan belongs to the Great Zhou, the silk workshop is non-stop day and night, the old man pondered, it can be stipulated that all the young and strong people in the city, entering Jinling, within five days, must go to the workshop to work, if they can't find it, they will be reduced to slaves on the spot and sold to large mulberry farmers, so that there are no displaced people in Jinling City." ”

Ye Hua frowned, "Feng Xianggong, that's hundreds of thousands of people!" You're going to turn them all into slaves? ”

Feng Yanji said: "Master Hou, don't you martial artists have a saying? It is called that one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, ten people will die, and one hundred people will die, and ten thousand people will die. What's more, give them a way to live, what's not to be satisfied with! ”

Facing Feng Yanji's high theory, Ye Hua thought deeply, "Feng Xianggong, you can be regarded as saying that in my heart, ten people and a hundred people are dead, and ten thousand people are also dead, but ...... I choose to die ten people and a hundred people! ”

Ye Hua's face suddenly sank, and he said sharply: "Someone!" ”

From outside, Lee Yu and Xu Xuan walked in side by side.

"Meet Master Hou!"

The two voices are like bells, and the momentum is amazing.

"If you don't follow Feng Xianggong's wishes, take him down!"

"Yes!"

These two people hated Feng Yanji so much that they didn't have the slightest politeness, and directly let people rush up and take him down.

Feng Yanji was stunned, "I, I didn't make a mistake!" Master Hou, I was wronged! You, you can't be convicted for your words, you can't frame heroes! I am loyal to Da Zhou, I am loyal! ”

He screamed at the top of his throat, but Ye Hua just smiled.

"Bring people in."

A short time later, someone dragged a family member and walked in from outside.

When Feng Yanji saw this person, his old face immediately turned gray-white.

This family member raised his head with difficulty and cried at Feng Yanji: "Xiangye, it's over, it's all over, Your Majesty is defeated!" ”

One word!

It was as if the thunder exploded, and Feng Yanji's last thoughts were gone.

It was dark in front of him, and he fell straight down.

After taking down Feng Yanji, Ye Hua took out the ivory card from his arms, and said with a relaxed smile: "There are two more pieces, let's go, let's take a look!" ”
