Qiu Guangming was taken aback by Li Zixiao's murderous tone, but he knew what Li Zixiao did in Yongcheng County.

It is rumored that all the big landlords in Yongcheng County were basically killed by Li Zixiao, although the rumors are suspected of exaggeration, after all, there are still many Yongcheng landlords who escaped.

But this still shows how ruthless Li Zixiao is, and he instinctively doesn't want to see those big landlords, who let those big landlords hold so much land in their hands.

Fortunately, at that time, Li Zixiao was still a bandit and did not follow the imperial court.

Now that he has become a member of the third rank of the imperial court, General Pingyuan, he may not raise the butcher's knife casually as before.

But Qiu Guangming is still not at ease, and at the same time, Qiu Guangming has served as the prefect of Xuzhou for many years, and he has a deep understanding of the strength of those local landlords and squires in Xuzhou.

If Li Zixiao really wants to do something against those big landlords, and they resist, most likely Xuzhou will fall into turmoil.

"My lord, this matter must not be rushed, let alone reckless! A long-term agreement is needed, and the official is willing to take responsibility for convincing those large landlords to grow sweet potatoes. ”

Qiu Guangming hurriedly admonished Li Zixiao.

Seeing Qiu Guangming's appearance, Li Zixiao smiled in his heart, it seems that his murderous reputation is really far away!

"Lord Qiu, don't worry, this official is the general of Pingyuan of the imperial court at this time, and the commander of Xuzhou, he knows what to do, and he will not act recklessly."

Wang Zirui said with a smile, looking at Qiu Guangming's relieved appearance, he felt funny.

However, after Qiu Guangming's reminder, Wang Zirui also pondered in his heart that on the land in his hands, he would never allow so many large landlords to control most of the land.

They will not be allowed to arbitrarily collect as much as 50 or 60 percent of the land rent from tenants, and the land problem must be resolved, otherwise it will become more and more troublesome in the future.

In the past, many contenders for hegemony, for the sake of temporary interests, would most likely compromise with these big landlords and gain their support.

But one day after the hegemon won the world, he now missed the best time to govern these big landlords, these guys have formed a group, and the tail is too big.

Therefore, from the first day he entered Xuzhou, Li Zixiao was already planning in his heart how to solve the problem of peasant land on his land in the future.

Don't underestimate this era, the people's attachment to the land, and the thousands of years of thinking of the Chinese people, can not be changed casually.

It's just that, compared with Yongcheng County, Xuzhou and even Huai'an and even Yangzhou, the situation is more complicated than the other, and it is impossible for him to copy his land policy in Yongcheng.

After all, the landlords of Yongcheng County were killed by him, and when they ran, all the land was naturally vacated, but the situation in Xuzhou was different.

Xuzhou is the capital of the whole state, and the number of landlords is more than ten times that of the barren county of Yongcheng.

Killing will not solve the fundamental problem, it will only provoke public anger, and whether Li Zixiao can continue at that time is a question of staying in Xuzhou.

However, he continued to settle down and implement the land policy as soon as possible, and for the sake of the territory he occupied, he had to focus on this policy, and this matter could not be delayed.

Li Zixiao would rather expand his strength later and expand less, and solve this problem as soon as possible, otherwise he will be even more troublesome when the end of the day is too big to fall.

"Lord Qiu, I have a plan here, you can see if it is feasible." As he spoke, Li Zixiao took a booklet from the quartz behind him and handed it to Qiu Guangming.

After Qiu Guangming took the booklet, he immediately flipped through it, and just after reading the first page, his face changed completely.

Because, the plan that Li Zixiao showed him was a version of 'land reform' in the late Ming Dynasty formulated by Li Zixiao after listening to the opinions of Qian Guangyuan and Li Yan, combined with his own later generations.

The core of this plan is that, first, the land will be nationalized, the people will only have the right to use it, and the land transaction will need to be approved by the government.

Second, the imperial court divided the land according to the number of people in the family, and if it was outside the number of its own population, the court paid for the redemption and then distributed it to other landless people.

Third, on the basis of Article 2, the government can sell the extra land, but the upper limit of the population of each household shall not exceed 500 mu, which is actually prepared for the landlords.

Fourth, the amount of taxes collected.

It is stipulated that the imperial court shall not collect more than 30% of the taxes of the people, and the people shall not pay more than 20% of the taxes of the fields cultivated by the common people to other landlords, and the rent of the landlords' fields shall not exceed 10% and a half.

These four articles are the core of Li Zixiao's 'land reform' plan, and there are many other supplementary provisions, all of which serve these four articles.

Li Zixiao's 'land reform' plan was completely formulated in combination with the actual situation at the end of the Ming Dynasty and with reference to the policies of the later Celestial Empire.

Compared with the land reform policy of the Celestial Empire in later generations, Li Zixiao's plan is undoubtedly much more 'gentle'.

But even so, when Qiu Guangming finished reading Li Zixiao's plan, his head exploded with a 'boom', and he knelt directly in front of Li Zixiao and shouted: "My lord, this government is not feasible!" ”

Li Zixiao didn't expect Qiu Guangming to react so much, and his kneeling directly made many officials around him look over, not knowing what was happening.

Li Zixiao's face turned pale, glanced at everyone, and said coldly: "You all go down, Governor Qiu and Qian Guangyuan stay." ”

When everyone saw Li Zixiao's face, they knew that Li Zixiao was on the verge of going berserk at this time, and they were very knowledgeable and obediently retired and left.

After everyone left, Li Zixiao asked Qiu Guangming in a cold voice: "Lord Qiu, you said that this government is not feasible, you explain it clearly to the official, why is it not feasible." ”

"My lord, if this policy comes out, it will definitely be resisted by all the big landlords in Xuzhou, and land is the lifeblood of these people.

Now that the adults want to move their lives, how can they agree, they will inevitably unite against the adults, and even if the adults have elite soldiers in their hands, Xuzhou will fall into chaos.

Xiaguan believes that the adults don't want to see Xuzhou fall into chaos. ”

Qiu Guangming looked at Li Zixiao and said.

Qiu Guangming could see that Li Zixiao planned to run Xuzhou as his base camp, so he naturally did not want to fall into chaos.

Qiu Guangming saw that Li Zixiao didn't speak, his face was uncertain, and he knew that Li Zixiao was thinking about what he said, and continued: "My lord, who proposed this plan to your lord.

That person is simply going to kill the adult, absolutely ill-intentioned, this is to destroy the foundation that the adult has worked so hard to save! ”

Qiu Guangming's words made Qian Guangyuan, who was behind, suddenly annoyed, and said with a sneer: "Lord Qiu, as far as Qian knows, Lord Qiu's name is on the edge of the Beida River in Xuzhou City, but there is a piece of 500 acres of fertile land.

It's a good place, with plenty of water and fertile soil, so I don't know how many people covet it, and I don't know how Lord Qiu was able to get such a good field. ”

As soon as Qian Guangyuan finished speaking, beads of sweat appeared on Qiu Guangming's forehead, those 500 acres of fertile land did not come from a serious channel, of course he panicked.

To tell the truth, the reason why Qiu Guangming opposed Li Zixiao's gentle 'land reform' was actually hiding a lot of selfishness, because under the name of his Qiu family, there were as many as thousands of acres of fertile land at this time.

If it were according to the content of Li Zixiao's land reform, their Qiu family would estimate that they would lose a lot.

"Master Qiu, what else do you want to say?" At this time, Li Zixiao said in an unkind tone.

"My lord, I deserve to die for my humble position, and I was selfish for a while, so I said the foolish words just now, and I ask your lord to forgive me for my humble position." Qiu Guangming hurriedly admitted his mistake.

"So Lord Qiu now thinks that there is a need to implement the policy of 'land reform'?"

"It is necessary, it is too necessary, at this time the land annexation in Xuzhou has been very serious, and the implementation of this policy is to benefit thousands of people.

However, before the humble position, it was not completely fooling the adults, and the humble officials dared to say that if the adults wanted to implement this policy, they would inevitably be greatly hindered.

However, it is not impossible to solve the problem, but it is necessary to be cautious and not to act in a hurry, and it is better to divide and disintegrate those landlords before implementing this 'land reform' policy. ”

At this time, Qiu Guangming didn't dare to be selfish anymore, otherwise his black gauze hat would probably be lost, and he would even be imprisoned.

After listening to Qiu Guangming's best words, Li Zixiao's face looked better, nodded slightly, and said, "Lord Qiu's last words, I believe they are the truth in your heart."

You are right, if you really want to implement this 'land reform' policy, you need to plan carefully, and this matter is what the official wants to leave to you. ”

"Hey, don't be too busy prevaricating." Li Zixiao saw that Qiu Guangming was about to speak, so he directly preemptively said it and blocked Qiu Guangming's mouth.

"I believe in your ability, I believe you can do this well, here I give you a word, but also a way to deal with those landlords and old money.

That is, to divide a group, suppress a group, and win over a group, you must always remember that I, as well as the thousands of White Dragon Army soldiers outside the city, are your most solid backing.

If you boldly let it go, I will fully support you, and you don't have to worry about the court, I will settle it for you if something happens.

If you do this well, and your past is written off, I will not blame the past, and I will reward you heavily. ”

"Obedience." Qiu Guangming finally said with a bitter face.

Li Zixiao will talk, to this point, he still has a reason to refuse! He can only take it, otherwise he will be miserable.

However, at the same time, Qiu Guangming can also see that Li Zixiao has made a big decision this time, and this is also an opportunity for him.

After he took refuge in Li Zixiao, he had not made any great contributions, and his status in Li Zixiao's eyes was far from being comparable to Qian Guangyuan, and even the young official Li Yan could not be compared.

If he wants to gain a firm foothold in Li Zixiao's small group and gain his own position, he must have a meritorious work.

And this 'land reform' plan is his Qiu Guangming's opportunity, if he can do this well, Li Zixiao has said that he is not guilty of his past, and he can still make great contributions.

You must know that in the past few years, he has taken advantage of his power to accept bribes from those businessmen, and he has also embezzled a lot of money and grain allocated by the imperial court.

Otherwise, at this time, the Qiu family can have more than a dozen shops of various kinds, thousands of acres of fertile land, and several mansions, if he wants to keep all this, he can only do a good job of 'land reform' for Li Zixiao.

Even in line with the principle of 'dead friends do not die poor', Qiu Guangming will eventually take on this task.

Moreover, Qiu Guangming is confident that as long as he completes this 'land reform', not only his status in Li Zixiao's heart will skyrocket, but even his prestige among the people of Xuzhou will skyrocket.

Even Qiu Guangming has even seen that thousands of peasants in Xuzhou are chanting his name.

After finally instructing Qiu Guangming, Li Zixiao left the hall with a smile, leaving Qiu Guangming with a stunned face and Qian Guangyuan with a sneer.

Li Zixiao gave Qiu Guangyuan the time to implement the 'land reform' policy, which was the whole winter, and he hadn't even allocated him a penny.

He wants to see the end of Xuzhou's 'land reform' before the beginning of spring next year, when the whole state government will vigorously promote the cultivation of sweet potatoes and corn.

It was a very difficult task, and Qiu Guangming was ready to leave after recovering from his sluggishness.

"Hmph, at this time, you dare not put yourself in the right position, adults are not good-tempered, there is only one chance, and if you can't grasp it, there will be no second time."

Seeing that Qiu Guangming was about to leave, Qian Guangyuan, who had not left yet, said with a sneer.

After Qiu Guangming listened to Qian Guangyuan's words, his steps froze, he turned his head slightly to look at Qian Guangyuan who was sitting on the chair, snorted coldly, didn't say anything, and was about to leave.

Qiu Guangming needed to hurry back to his prefect's yamen, gather his staff, and quickly negotiate a practical policy.

Li Zixiao didn't give him much time.

At the same time, Qiu Guangming also agreed with Li Zixiao's hint to him, he could not be the enemy of the landlords in the entire Xuzhou, and he would not be soft when it was time to kill chickens and monkeys.

Anyway, this time, Li Zixiao said that he would fully support him, and getting Li Zixiao's promise meant that Qiu Guangming had the support of the White Dragon Army outside the city.

That is Qiu Guangming's confidence, a policy like 'land reform' cannot be completed without the support of the army, and it must be done with a knife in his hand.
