On the high palace wall, Liu Che walked slowly.

The officials and attendants behind him followed closely and huddled.

"At home, this time a total of six merchants, including Du's, Zhang's, and Wang's, have confiscated the family property of six merchants, including more than 1,000 acres of land, nearly 100 million dollars, more than 5,000 gold, more than 10 warehouses, dozens of houses, countless shops, the meaning of His Majesty, money and gold, all paid into the treasury of Shaofu, as for these acres of land and treasury houses, the family can arrange by itself!" Zhang Tang lowered his head and reported.

Liu Che lowered his head and looked at the bricks and tiles on the city wall, and smiled slightly.

At this moment, five days have passed since he ordered the execution of Du Mao and others.

In the past five days, Liu Che used blood and butcher knives to let the merchants in Guanzhong know that the affairs of the royal family were not something they could touch at all.

The Du Mao family headed by more than a dozen children who were imprisoned alone, and countless others were exiled and sentenced to prison.

The other families are treated in much the same way.

Only the wife of Zhang Gui, who had the surname of the Bo family, was granted extrajudicial favor and allowed to be ransomed, and then, the woman quickly remarried a nobleman who was said to be the nephew of the Marquis of Che with her property.

Of course, this is just an episode.

The real handiwork fell on the matter of raiding the house.

"More than a thousand hectares...... Liu Che sighed with emotion, and said with a sneer: "Just six merchants, people from the city, occupy more than a thousand hectares of land, what a good means!" ”

You must know that ten years ago, Guanzhong still had a field.

At that time, the Han family's standard for granting land to landless peasants was that they had knighthoods. Civilians in Guanzhong with no criminal record.

The minimum standard for granting land is 100 acres per household, that is, one hectare of land.

At that time, the land in Guanzhong was annexed. Not for nothing, but on a fairly small scale.

However, today, ten years later, more than 1,000 hectares of land have been copied out of just six merchants, totaling nearly 100,000 mu, which is equivalent to the entire arable area of a small county!

Especially. Guanzhong is a large acre, one acre and two hundred and forty steps.

But Liu Che knows that this is just the tip of the iceberg.

Knocked out this time. At best, one Du family can barely be regarded as a tiger, and the others are just flies.

The real oligarch, Liu Che has not even touched it.

For example, Tian's family, Wuyan's family and even giants such as the surname Dou.

Even, Liu Che knows it. This time after the Du envoy fell. Most of the Du family's land, property, and workshops were divided among other wealthy businessmen and bureaucrats.

What was left for the court to confiscate was just some leftovers.

Hearing this, Zhang Tang lowered his head deeply.

Zhang Tang knew very well what role the Tian family played in this feast.

Liu Che waved his hand and said, "The slaves and maids and subordinates of the various families who were confiscated this time will all be arranged to go to Sixian Yuan......

Six merchants, with hundreds of slaves, among them. There are more than 100 families who have children, and they are young. Even feeding.

Obviously, if Liu Che waved his hand and gave these people freedom, he might have killed them.

"No!" Zhang Tang nodded, but it was a little strange, because according to the past tradition of the Han family, confiscated slaves were generally either sold or given freedom.

And in most cases, for the sake of face, the Liu family will let the slaves go free.

But Zhang Tang was born in a well-off family, and he never worried about cold and warmth since he was a child.

How do you know how hard life is for the people at the bottom of this society?

If Liu Che hadn't been reborn once, he would probably have been self-righteous and gave freedom to those slaves.

However, as a reborn, Liu Che happened to have witnessed the fact that he gave freedom to slaves once, but killed countless people.

That was after the death of the father in the previous life, as a routine tradition, the Son of Heaven issued an edict to release the female slaves and maids in the palace before his death.

As a result, hundreds of palace maids and eunuchs who had lived in the court for most of their lives were out of the palace, because they had no skills, and because they had been out of touch with society for too long, countless people died of starvation and freezing, and others, in desperation, chose to sell themselves to rich merchants as slaves.

This has to be said to be an irony.

At the same time, it is also a thing that has not been recorded in history.

And these slaves are similar to those palace maids and eunuchs.

Most of them have even been domestic slaves of others since birth, and they only know how to serve their masters, but have no livelihood skills.

What's even more terrifying is that they no longer have a home and no relatives to turn to.

If Liu Che is a virgin, then it can be expected that this winter, there will be many more poor people who freeze to death on the streets of Chang'an.

Fortunately, he was reborn once, and Liu Che knew how to arrange this matter.

He turned to Wang Dao and ordered: "Wang Dao, you pass on Gu's order, let the fathers and villagers in Sixian Yuan teach these poor people how to farm, how to farm, how to harvest and store...... As for their food and clothing, they ...... to eat."

Liu Che thought for a while and said, "Give each person a hundred yuan, a stone of corn, and the rest will be earned by themselves!" ”

It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish.

The reason is very simple, and Liu Che does not intend to be kind indiscriminately.

Liu Che tentatively planned to let them help with farm work in Sixian Garden, herding deer or something, and she could get five yuan a day for herding deer, and one hundred and fifty yuan a month, which was enough to support these people's lives.

As for the future, it depends on the creation of these people!

"No!" Wang Dao nodded and wrote it down.

Liu Che's disposition made Zhang Tang and Ji Di beside him look at each other in surprise.

They found at the moment that for the crown prince, although their estimation was high enough.

However, the prince's way of thinking and doing things is often beyond their expectations.

Especially Ji Di, as an official eunuch, he knows very well that the prince's disposition is almost perfect.

"As for the more than 1,000 hectares of land......" Liu Che smiled.

He naturally knew that this was a test given to him by the emperor's father.

The price of Guanzhong land is so high, and an acre of land is often tens of thousands of dollars.

This is more than 1,000 hectares, more than 100,000 acres. It's almost a fortune of hundreds of thousands of dollars, and no one can hold it if you change it. People who are a little greedy for money are afraid that they will swallow it in their stomachs as long as they have the opportunity.

But Liu Che is the crown prince.

I want to prove that I am a qualified prince. You can't just stare at your own one-third of an acre and your own gains and losses.

It's about looking at the world.

After thinking for a while, Liu Che instructed: "Make a register of all the acres of land, and then, the internal history yamen, just say, lonely, let the internal history yamen transfer another batch of official fields out." Combine the two and give land to the landless peasants in Guanzhong...... Drama Qing ......" Liu Che looked at Drama Meng and ordered: "This matter." I'll leave it to Qing to do it! ”

Drama Meng was overjoyed when he heard this.

Grant the field!

Who doesn't know that presiding over the granting of land is the best way to gain political prestige?

The mistake of that year was to assist Zhang Cang, the Marquis of Beiping, to hold a field grant, and since then he has officially entered the court!

"At home, the minister is a vulgar person, and he can't do this......" Ju Meng thought about it. forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart and excused.

He naturally knows and knows his own pounds.

This grants land. It's no small thing.

In the first forty years of the history of the Han dynasty, granting land was the most important national policy.

The Emperor of the Han Dynasty granted land year after year, and penetrated his authority and tentacles into the foundation, and entered the pavilion, especially Guanzhong, and the entire grassroots political power was completely controlled by the Emperor of the Han Dynasty.

Big things like this. In the past, it was the prime minister who presided over it himself. The Son of Heaven directly asked, and the three princes and nine ministers cooperated closely, and in this way, problems often arise.

Because, who can grant land and who can't, this matter itself is an unsolvable crux.

And land is the lifeblood of farmers.

Drama Meng remembers the grand occasion when he was a child.

At that time, tsk, the whole hometown, every family was busy separating their families. In front of the yamen, there were people who applied for a single independent household, and in order to grab a quota for granting land, armed fights and vendetta killings occurred.

Liu Che smiled, this matter really depends on Ju Meng to do it.

The reason is very simple, except for the rangers under Ju Meng, there are really not many people who can figure out the current situation of the low-level people in Guanzhong.

After all, it has been almost eleven years since the Han family last granted land.

Of course, Liu Che also knows that this kind of thing is a great achievement if it is done well, and once there is any large-scale behind-the-scenes transaction, it will become a laughing stock, and it will even completely lose the support of the existing people.

After all, what gave the people hope and shattered it was the low-rent housing of the Celestial Empire!

Think about what has become of low-rent housing in the end?

Liu Cheke didn't want his reputation as a prince to become a gentleman's sword in the end.

So, Liu Che said: "Just let Qing do it, Lone will let Ji Di stare at the side, and if you encounter difficulties, Qing can also come directly to Lone!" ”

Ju Meng nodded and said, "No, the minister will do his best!" ”

After thinking about it, Ju Meng asked again: "Dare to ask Your Highness, do you have any instructions for granting fields?" ”

Liu Che thought for a while and said, "For the time being, three standards......

"One: A family with an annual income of less than 5,000 yuan has no criminal record!" The annual income is less than 5,000 yuan, which is the poverty limit of the Han family's standard, and more than 5,000 yuan proves that the family can maintain the minimum living needs, at least half full. But if you have less than 5,000 yuan, you are really a standard poor person in Guanzhong, usually such a family is on the verge of collapse, and you can only sell your children and daughters when you encounter difficulties!

"Second: There is a male epidemic in the family who is in charge of the king's affairs!" This is naturally correct, and it is also the first consideration when granting land in the past, after all, these families are the real hardcore of the Han family, and they are the real people of their own, so of course they have to be taken care of.

"Third: there are people who are in the border gates, or those who are disabled in the army!" This article did not exist in the past, but Liu Che deliberately added it, just to inspire and encourage those soldiers who had gone to the Great Wall to defend the border, proving that Liu had not forgotten their exploits.

Liu Che said lightly: "There is a premise for these three articles, that is, there must be no land at home, or the number of acres per capita is less than ten acres!" ”

"Let's arrange it like this first!"

This time, the scale of the grant was very small.

Even if the Shaofu allocates the same amount of official land to make up two or three hundred thousand mu, it is not of much significance.

At most, it can accommodate 2,000 households.

Compared with the population of tens of thousands of households in Guanzhong counties, it is only a drop in the bucket.

But it is a hope.

A hope to look forward to.

There is no group of people who love and look forward to the land more than the peasants.

"One more stipulation, all acres of land granted this time must be cultivated for more than ten years before they can belong to the grantor, and within ten years, these lands cannot be traded, sold, or pawned!" Liu Che thought for a while and added.

This is natural, otherwise some 'proletariat', such as rangers and ruffians, will dredge up their relations, take the land, and sell it to rich merchants or aristocrats.

Liu Che is not a fortune boy, how can he give them this loophole!

"Yan Yi, this matter, when you enter the palace tomorrow morning, report it to your father in detail!" Liu Che looked at Yan Yidao.

"No!"

"As for those shops, sell them if you can...... Liu Che thought for a while, and said: "If you really can't sell them, let Wang Dao do it!" ”

He was indeed a little short of money.

It's coming to the end of the year.

Chinese celebrate the New Year, naturally they want to give out red envelopes. Now, up and down his womb, officials, maids, eunuchs, and guards, add up to nearly a thousand people.

The red envelopes and year-end bonuses of these people alone are not a small amount.

Then, Chen Ajiao, and the woman who is now following her or something.

It's not like you don't give some bonuses and give out some benefits.

Then, in the new year, it is natural to give new official uniforms and ribbons......

Liu Che roughly calculated that just for this year, he would have to spend millions of dollars.

Then, there is also Queen Bo's birthday, which also costs a lot of money.

Lin Lin finally counted, before the year and the year, it is estimated that it will not be able to hold it if it does not cost tens of thousands.

This is still the result of trying to save as much as possible, and Liu Che himself is not extravagant and wasteful.

In his previous life, Liu Rong was the crown prince, and in a year, the palace spent nearly 100 million yuan!

Wang Dao nodded happily.

The Han family has always had a tradition of using eunuchs to take care of the prince's property.

"By the way, the lonely Tang Muzhi fee, when will Shaofu turn around?" Liu Che asked Ji Di.

As the crown prince, it is naturally impossible to have all expenses and no income.

Liu Che now has the food estates of ten counties such as Hongguyuan, Changling, and Huayin, and it is conservatively estimated that there are still 20 or 30 million yuan of food tax in these ten counties.

"Back home, Cen Mingfu has already written to the minister, saying that it will probably be transferred in November next year!" Ji Di bowed and replied.

Liu Che nodded.

The Han dynasty is chronological.

This calendar begins with October.

In other words, at this time, September is the last month of the year, and October is the beginning of a new year.

Yes, it is sometimes seen in the history books that it is clear that they are all in a certain year before the Common Era, but there are two era names in the history books of the Han family.

Liu Che scratched his head.

To be honest, the calendar is not very suitable for today's times.

This old yellow calendar from two or three years ago has little merit for the current climate.

Because, you must know that at the time of the establishment of the Zhuan calendar, the Yellow River was still running elephants!

The pigs of later generations, in the first year of the Taichu calendar, changed to the Taichu calendar, and they adapted well to the new climate change, and the 24 solar terms derived from the Taichu calendar are even more far-reaching.

"Shall I find someone to make the primordial calendar?" Liu Che thought about it, and then gave up this plan.

To rewrite the calendar is not something that he, a little prince, can decide.

This thing can only be done if the emperor himself wants to do it.

The reason is simple, the monarchy is bestowed.

On the other hand, except for the emperor, no one else is qualified to communicate with God!

Liu Che shrugged his shoulders and looked at the city in the distance.

The year of proptomy will pass.

The world will also turn a new page! (To be continued......)
