Seven hundred and thirty-two of their own people

From ancient times to the present, those in high positions have no reason to suffer from poverty, because it is not easy for everyone to be in a high position, if this matter is too easy, for example, according to the ideas of some officials and rich second generations, then they will definitely suffer a very tragic defeat, and then return to the original point and lose a qiΔ“, this is the pain brought by the high position, and the high place is unbearable.

Suning feels that although he is not a more luxurious official in this era, but the resources and services he enjoys now are absolutely unimaginable to modern ordinary people, although the materials are poor, there is no modern high-tech, so the way to enjoy is limited, but the result of enjoyment is as pleasant as the process, the same addictive, at least Suning feels that when he is still a little self-conscious, Xue Rengui has been addicted to it.

Of course, this is what he bought with his life, and no one can say anything wrong...... It seems that his own is also in exchange for his life...... So...... What's not to do?

Although he left Feng An's drunken fairy house, Suning felt that there was no shortage of enjoyment and service, there was still enough ice cubes, and there were enough things to relieve the heat - such as chilled fruits and iced honey, which were unimaginable luxuries for the common people of the Tang Dynasty, but here, what was supplied to himself was responsive, as if it was inexhaustible, Suning liked to eat watermelon the most, after Feng Ang learned about it, he specially selected a person who was responsible for supplying chilled watermelon to Suning every day, and also cut it into small pieces by the way, Remove the watermelon seeds.

This kind of life is really like a fairy, but Suning understands it very well. If you really think of yourself as a god, soon, you will become inferior to even a ghost.

Very comfortable to take a hot shower, put on loose and breathable clothes, Suning entered the early morning ice cube ice cold room to enjoy, as soon as I entered the inside, I felt a cool air rushing to my face, the enjoyment brought by is no less than modern air conditioning, that comfortable! Xue Rengui was already sitting inside and drinking ice wine, and saw Suning come in. Immediately stood up and saluted: "Thank you Suhou for your hospitality." ”

Suning smiled. waved his hand to sit him down, then poured himself a glass of ice wine, drank it and breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Comfortable, right?" I can't enjoy this day in Chang'an. It doesn't matter here. It's Feng Gong's old man's house. The Feng family is big, rich, it doesn't matter how the two of us toss. Toss him endlessly, rest assured, toss slowly, this fairy-like day can still pass for a month, hahahaha! ”

Xue Rengui smiled embarrassedly: "Feng Gong is really not a mortal, he is really a hero, he has only heard of Feng Gong's prestige in the past, but he has not seen it!" ”

Suning waved his hand and smiled: "There's nothing to look at, an old man, two eyes, two ears, a nose and a mouth, nothing different from others, they are all people, what's so good-looking?" It's just that this old man's ability is definitely not small! Such a big Feng family, such a big Lingnan, people can control it in an orderly manner, this is ability, this is ability, and it is worth shouting the king of Nantian. ”

Xue Rengui smiled, and then asked hesitantly: "Su Hou, I still have some doubts about the million acres of land and so much money, what is Su Hou doing?" Can you sue sΓΉ below? If it is a secret of the imperial court, it can't be sued, then forget it, just don't ask it. ”

Suning smiled and said, "What's confidential and not classified?" It won't take long for the whole world to know, it's not a big deal, the purpose of my trip to the south this time is for this, I plan to implement the uniform land system in Jiangnan, then a lot of land and a large number of households are needed, Lingnan is the first step, and the whole Jiangnan is the key. ”

Xue Rengui was puzzled: "Juntian? The whole Tang Dynasty is implemented in this way, why did Su Hou talk about the implementation of the law of Juntian in Jiangnan? ”

Suning shook his head and said, "Rengui, let me ask you, what is the root of Juntian's law?" ”

Xue Rengui was stunned for a moment, and shook his head awkwardly: "I only know the art of war, but I don't know civil affairs." ”

Suning said: "It's normal that you don't know, because the law of Juntian is also simple to say, in fact, it is not simple at all, the law of Juntian stipulates that each of the civil males of the Tang Dynasty can get 20 acres of Yongye Field, 80 acres of Koufen Field, a total of 100 acres of land, Yongye Field can be inherited, as for the mouth of the field, the death of the male will be taken back to the court, can not be inherited, can not be bought and sold, can not be arbitrarily disposed of."

But not mentioning the death of a man, an adult male can get 100 acres of land, 10 men is 1,000 acres, 100 men is 10,000 acres, 1,000 men is 100,000 acres, and 10,000 men is 1 million acres.

In fact, the fundamental dependence is that the imperial court has enough public land, enough to grant to every male of civil nationality, once the land of the imperial court is insufficient, the uniform land system is deformed and fictitious, and the people have no land to get, no grain to harvest, they will be starved to death.

And that's not all, there is another point, the land needs someone to plant, and the land that no one can plant is wasteland, and it can't grow food, it's useless, where do people come from? From among the households, if the imperial court has enough land but not enough households to cultivate the land, how can it be nothing?

The land of Jiangnan, the whole Jiangnan, there are both problems, the imperial court does not have enough public land, and there are not enough households, the imperial court's rule over Jiangnan is only nominal, a few cities and regions accept the orders of the imperial court, but the vast majority of the areas are called to do not listen to the Xuan, do not listen to the instructions of the imperial court at all, they all listen to the orders of their own lords, these leaders take the initiative to cultivate tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, and the land in the hands of the imperial court is either wasteland or mountainous, what is the effect?

Moreover, most of the people are landlords and tenants, and they do not pay taxes to the imperial court, and the taxes of more than a dozen states in the south of the Yangtze River are not as good as those of Sanyuan County, what do you think about this situation? What kind of Cheng did Yan zhΓ²ng go? This time I went south, I visited various places to understand the people's conditions, and only then did I find that the situation was really strict, and Jiangnan was actually a country within a country. In the long run, how did you get it? So I came up with the idea of buying land and people in the south of the Yangtze River.

The seeds of high-yield crops did not circulate in Jiangnan because of Fang Xuanling's proposition, and the landlords in Jiangnan did not get a single seed of potatoes, corn and rice, they did not have to plant, and this is our biggest dependence, using the seeds and money of high-yield crops to buy their land and tenants, they have too much land, and there are many tenants, but the income is not high, and it seems to be glamorous. In fact, many side branches are not immune to starvation and cold. So they will definitely be willing to sell the land and tenants, and that's what I rely on the most. ”

The more Xue Rengui listened, the more his brows furrowed: "Su Hou, I won't tell you, before I came here." I heard that many generals were quite critical of Su Hou's approach. They all said that those people were obviously national thieves. Why don't you move the army to conquer it? It is easy to get all the land in the south of the Yangtze River, and those lands were originally owned by the Tang Dynasty, so why did the Tang Dynasty court need those lands and pay them to buy them? The people are all the people of the Tang Dynasty. Why pay for it?

Many generals advocate the use of troops in Jiangnan, but many troops in the army are preparing, and almost all of them are ready to go to war, and as a result, His Majesty is not allowed to send troops with an edict, and obey Su Hou's advice to do business with those people, negotiate, and spend money to buy, everyone says that Su Hou has changed a lot, unlike the good man in the past, but he always thinks that Su Hou will not do this for no reason, so please also ask Su Hou to solve his doubts. ”

When Suning heard Xue Rengui's words, he immediately felt that what he did was correct, and the right could not be more correct, if Li Erma's situation did not resist the pressure of the military and sent troops according to their wishes, then it is very likely that the consequences will be very strict, and the Tang military will gradually become uncontrollable, interfering in politics and government administration.

For example, after the Meiji Restoration, the Japanese military did not listen to the government's control at all, and from the Taiwan crisis in 1874, the Japanese military repeatedly violated the government's wishes and forcibly sent troops to fight against China and its allies.

Since then, the army has been out of control, the Russo-Japanese War, the 226 Incident, the 918 Incident, the Songhu War of Resistance, the Great Wall War of Resistance, the North China Crisis, and all the 77 Incident, all the Japanese army's initiative to provoke decisions was made by the military department, and the 918 Incident was even a decision made by some small staff officers, and even the Kwantung Army Command did not know about this matter, let alone the Japanese government.

At the beginning of 918, the Japanese government even strongly demanded that the Kwantung Army stop adventuring, they believed that Japan's troops in the northeast were too small to compete with the Chinese army, not to mention the Soviet Union in the north, the government was afraid of China's 200,000 Northeast Army, after all, the Kwantung Army in the northeast at that time only had 20,000 people, but the army did not listen, Zhang Xueliang was also frightened, so he ......

After the 226 Incident, the Japanese Civilian Cabinet Konoe Cabinet was originally pinned on by many Japanese people, hoping to control the military department, but as a month after coming to power, the fresh and refined atmosphere of the Konoe cabinet was ended by the bloody steel knife of the military department, and the most rampant period of the military department even had to compromise with the "Emperor Majesty" they believed in the most.

Suning will never allow this situation to appear in Datang in advance because of its own appearance and actions, and it is even more dangerous and stricter, because the military has formed a group, no longer scattered warlords who fight each other, but a group, similar to the group of the military government! That's even more terrifying!

The government is the government of the literati, the army, it is the army of the soldiers, the literati do not run the army, and the military do not interfere in politics, this is the sign of a healthy political system, but all the literati are in charge of the army or the military are in the government, that is not a normal social system phenomenon, that is wrong!

"Rengui, I know that those generals must be dissatisfied with me, but I still have to do this, the reason why I support the army to eradicate the Shandong Shi clan is because their survival threatens the security of the Tang Dynasty, their survival threatens the safety of ordinary people, and their existence makes it impossible for us to popularize education, and we can't popularize education like now, so that children can study and take exams.

But Jiangnan is different, whether it is a scholar or a big family in Jiangnan, they do not threaten the safety of Datang, Datang will not become unsafe because of them, their existence is meaningless whether it is in the court or in the army, they rarely participate in the government, or in other words, the Shandong Shi clan wants to rebel, but Jiangnan people do not want to rebel, since they do not want to rebel, then they should solve the problem through negotiation, they are all Datang people, and if one dies, there will be one less, how lacking the population of Datang is now, You know that, too.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, there were more than 40 million people, and now there are less than 20 million, and the Tang Dynasty is so lacking in population, so why do you want to kill each other, and waste your precious lives in cannibalism? For foreign races, it is to kill if you can, I have no objection to this, but for your own people, you can talk about it, and if you can, don't kill it, Rengui, no matter what other generals think, I only hope now that you can understand my thoughts, you can understand my thoughts, and for your own people, try not to use swords. Suning stared at Xue Rengui and said seriously. (To be continued......)
