Chapter 305: Samurai Jue

The leisurely summer in Jizhou is over, and the entire state is busy with farming, and the Yan's demand for food is too great now. Compared with the rest of the states, Jizhou's prosperity has undoubtedly returned to the level before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and even far exceeded that time. After all, in the past, seventy percent of Jizhou's land was held in the hands of the family, which had a great impact on the flow and gathering of population. Now it has become different, after the seventy percent of the big families in Jizhou have not survived more than ten years of chaos, after the Yan officials measured the land and distributed the acres, when the private land of the people of Jizhou was not allowed to be bought and sold and distributed by the government - this land with extraordinary potential in Jizhou has been almost completely developed.

Jizhou does not have large mountains and dense forests like Youzhou, Jizhou is not as barren as Bingzhou, and Jizhou is not adjacent to the front line like Sizhou.

Migrants came here to settle down, merchants came here to open markets, and tens of millions of people gathered throughout Jizhou, and these people cultivated almost all the land that could be cultivated in Jizhou.

Two or three years ago, the Yan family ordered the collection of farm tools in various places, and when it was time to harvest, the local supervisors would build the best farm tools in all aspects in batches, among which the cheap and easy to make ones would be delivered to the farmers' homes from all over the country; At the same time, the households were organized to gather the people, and the donkey ploughing, ox ploughing and the corresponding coupling plough were implemented, and the pavilion order management was served by the newly sent Taixue students to the local area, and it was handed over to the people under the pavilion for common use; At the township level, where there are canals, the government makes waterwheels to provide irrigation, and in some places where there is a natural flow of water, thirsty wuwu is made to climb the mountains to draw water.

All of this was managed and used by the Yan clan's new local officials at the three levels of Tingling, Liling, and Xiangling, with the intention of benefiting the people and increasing their authority. In order to avoid this kind of thing, when the first selection of officials is required, the study required for the examination is not in the scriptures, but in the training, agriculture, and law.

Their priorities in Tingli Township are only three points: urging the people to use better means, more convenient tools, simpler and faster to cultivate their own land; When the time for the people to cultivate became shorter, they led the people to teach the arts, the procession, and the enlightenment of reading; Finally, there is the conventional political ...... The political affairs that can be fart in the township are nothing more than preaching the law and deciding disputes.

The last law is actually not a business, in the past, the Han Dynasty's official position deployment in this area was for stability, such as the pavilion chief, the thief, and the Qiangfu people can do this very well, and the two points arranged by Yanbei are nothing more than farming and war in simple words.

Use scholars to teach the people to plough the fields, use scholars to teach the people the skills of the queue, and set a strict training time and training purpose - every two days in the slack time to practice swordsmanship or spears according to the talents mastered by the living beings in the place for half a day, and the other half a day to practice bowing, and in which to search for peasant children who are suitable for learning riding and imperial arts, every four days they will choose one of them to teach Mengxue to the children and teenagers under the age of dancing elephants (15 to 20 years old) in the township.

Despite this, Yan Bei and his staff knew that these peasant children might not enter the official career in the future, so what they taught was nothing more than the enlightened and basic "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", so that they could make a living from it even if they didn't do anything big in the future.

But if you rely on these alone, whether it is Yanbei or Tian Feng or Fu Zhi, they don't think that relying on the system alone can ensure that the people will obey orders, especially Yanbei.

After experiencing the experience of the complete transformation of the high system of the temple to the distance of the rivers and lakes, Yanbei has a slight feeling in governing the country and government, and it is no longer as naïve as it used to be. Before deciding to change a system, the staff of Yanbei and Zhao Wanggong calculated the worst possibility after countless times, and specially invited the three elders and ordinary people from all over the country to inquire about the matter...... This is really significant.

It really allows them to find loopholes.

Among the common people, when and what they do directly determines how much they eat. In order to set the intensity of the training of the scholars, not to mention the peasants who are accustomed to the strength, only those children and teenagers who are enlightened and educated, it is difficult to ensure that they have the energy to learn in addition to practice, and this will directly lead to the collapse of this system.

Yan Bei rummaged through the history books of the present time, and finally found something that had been left in the dust for a long time, such as a treasure.

In the early Han Dynasty, Emperor Xiaowu used the martial arts knight to raise military expenses, a total of eleven titles, and those who bought the title of seven or more can appoint officials, in fact, it is from the imperial court to buy and sell officials. Although this policy allowed Emperor Xiaowu to quickly raise enough military funds, it also complicated the official channels and broke down the order.

Yanbei will not set a precedent for buying and selling officials, not to mention that in fact, there are not many daughters under his rule, even if he sells his title, it is difficult to achieve the results of Emperor Xiaowu, the key is that he is not short of money. The Yan clan was able to take advantage of the chaotic east wind in the north to carry out the field system reform with Youzhou and Jizhou. Because the fundamental purpose of Tian Ce is to eliminate land annexation, this naturally stands on the opposite side of the noble clans, the powerful and the wealthy who own vast land, and may not be able to stand with the people.

For so many years, it is not that no one has the idea of suppressing mergers like Xun Yue, but no one has seized such a good opportunity to practice it like Xun Yue.

After Tian Ce was formed, it meant that there would basically be no strong people who supported thousands of acres of land under the Yan family. When there is a limit to the benefits that can be obtained from the land, people can only turn their attention to the commercial market, which leads to the prosperity of the commercial market.

But Emperor Xiaowu's martial arts did provide Yanbei with excellent ideas...... Knighthood.

Just let the people be enlightened and learn skills to fight in battle, I am afraid that most of the people will feel unimpressed, just like the Han Dynasty in the past in the countryside to train the village brave, become a ranger and evil boy to make a living. Because there is nothing to be gained, it must be those who are idle when they stay, and ordinary people are eager to have time to rest during the leisure time. But there is no good life when the farmer is idle, either the scorching sun or the cold of winter, who wants to do such unrewarding things.

But what if you can give the people who practice and study seriously how many levels of civil lords can be given?

The distinctive civil lord has a glorious knighthood, a slightly better status, and a tax reduction effect.

Can the people remain indifferent?

In September, Zhao Wanggong sent a message to the Zhusheng of Jizhou, and opened a four-level martial artist in addition to the people, and the best ones in the skill attack were the soldiers, and the best soldiers learned the bow and horse, and the best in the bow and horse were the royal warriors, and the best in the battle array were the samurai, and the samurai enlisted in the army and served as the chief.

At all levels, the warriors were exempted from the field rent and tax in turn, until the samurai reduced the tax of one person in the family.

The legal name is Samurai Jue, but in fact, it is the law of the county under the power of the whole king.
