Chapter 043: Land Reform in Disguise
***
Dividing the land and giving the people a hope, it is easier said than done!
Now which land does not have an owner, although after war, but after all, there has not been a change of dynasty, you can't plunder the land of the original landlord at will, right?
Where did Qin Mu get the land to distribute to the people?
Yang Tinglin shook his head and said, "The old man can roughly guess what Qin Xian's nephew thinks, but I'm afraid that this plan won't work." Although there are five counties in Ganzhou that have been plagued by traitors, many local gentry have been killed in the rebellion, however, all the gentry and wealthy households, usually the family is flourishing, deep roots, even if the immediate family members are all killed, most of the side branches are still there, want to divide these lands, will encounter great resistance, one is not good, they will stir up the rebellion again, not to mention that many gentry often always have one or two people who can escape in the rebellion, how to divide this field? ”
Qin Mu replied confidently: "Is this matter difficult to say, first of all, after the heel of the zhanzhu in the word, the government also needs to have a relatively tough attitude." ”
"Oh, what is the best plan for Qin Xian's nephew, come quickly."
"Uncle Yang, let's do this, the prefect's yamen will post a notice as soon as possible, announcing that the land registration files of each prefecture and county have been burned or lost due to the war, and the people of each county are requested to take their own land deeds to the county government within ten days to re-register;
If you can't get the land deed, there is no basis for anything, the government will not recognize the land property it owns, and if you can take out the land deed, you can measure the number of acres on the land deed, if there is a surplus, you can use it to distribute it to the refugees who have suffered from the disaster. ”
Qin Mu's move seems simple, but it is actually very mysterious. All of a sudden, Yang Tinglin had a feeling that he was suddenly open, doing this was a businessman's business, although it was a little impersonal, but it was reasonable.
Without the title deed document as evidence, the land ownership will not be recognized, which is actually only secondary, and the government will not get a lot of land from it.
Because the title deed is usually the most hidden thing of a family, and this thing is just a piece of waste paper for the rebels, no one deliberately searches for this thing, as long as there are still people, the possibility of losing the title deed is not very likely.
On the contrary, the main thing is to have the land deed, and return the landlord's land according to the actual amount on the land deed, which is the essence of Qin Mu's plan.
Since the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the local gentry and wealthy households have annexed a large number of land, and in order to evade taxes, tricks, false declarations and other means have emerged in an endless stream, and the tax land registered by the government has become less and less, and most of the land has disappeared inexplicably in the treacherous reversal again and again.
Of course, it is impossible for these lands to really disappear, but there is no record in the official register, and if there is no record in the official register, then the original owner will inevitably not be able to produce a valid title deed.
Qin Muyi's move is equivalent to clearing the land again, but this is much simpler than the land in the general sense, because only a small part of the land with a title deed is needed, and most of the "black fields" without a title deed are directly classified as terra nullius.
These "borderlands" are led and supervised by officials, and the victims who have formed the armor protection model are distributed according to the capitation.
With this trick, the landlords, who had previously made the most false reports and harmed the most serious state interests, suffered the greatest losses, and this was tantamount to lifting a stone to shoot themselves in the foot.
In the past, when the gentry and wealthy families were shili, it was difficult to implement this trick smoothly, but now after the rebel troubles, the local gentry and wealthy families have been greatly weakened, and it is when they are at their weakest that this trick is implemented, and the resistance is almost negligible.
Thinking about this clearly, Yang Tinglin showed a look of relief on his face, and said unhurriedly: "Okay, just do it!" Qin Xian's nephew is a rare talent for the whole army and the people, and I have already handed over the meritorious service, Huichang is a small county, Qin Xian's nephew is really a talent, I hope the court can recognize the talent. ”
At that time, Yuan Chonghuan also jumped many levels in just half a year from a small county, was promoted to overseer, and led the military and government of Liaodong, becoming a major member who grasped the lifeblood of the empire.
Yang Tinglin felt that with Qin Mu's talent, when the country was in crisis, there might not be no possibility of being promoted exceptionally. At least he himself had high hopes for Qin Mu.
"To quell the rebellion, it is all the work of Uncle Yang and the adults, the little nephew does not dare to boast of himself, now he only hopes to be satisfied with the land of a county, and other things will be said in the future, the little nephew is the county of Huichang, and he has not yet arrived in Huichang to take office, it is really inappropriate, if it is"
"The matter has come to this, and it will not be too late for a while, Qin Xian's nephew and sit quietly, the old man still has something to say."
"Uncle Yang is willing to teach, and the little nephew naturally can't ask for it."
"Nephew Qin Xian, now that you are the parent official of a county, you don't even have a family, what kind of system is this?"
"This, Uncle Yang Mingjian, in the future Huichang will be my home, the people of Huichang are my children, I am willing to selflessly dedicate my youth to Huichang, to Daming, to dedicate to"
"How can this be reasonable, the old man is talking to you about business, what are you talking nonsense?" Yang Tinglin was a little annoyed, according to the normal situation, his previous words were a foreshadowing, and then Qin Mu should be modest and say two sentences, or say two sentences that it is difficult to ask for a good couple or something, in short, it should not be such a messy nonsense as him, how can this make the prefect embarrassed? How can you say the following words?
Since the love is embarrassing, Yang Zhifu simply let it go, after he coughed dryly, he said solemnly: "Virtuous nephew, Ling Zun Lingtang Immortal died early, I will be your uncle, your marriage naturally can't be ignored, cough cough"
"Ahem!" Qin Mu suddenly looked like a shy little boy, his throat was a little dry, and he involuntarily coughed dryly, how embarrassing it was to look at this meeting.
"Ahem!" Yang Tinglin seemed to be afraid of suffering, coughed twice, and then said, "Virtuous nephew, this little girl is seventeen years old, you have seen people, although she can't talk about both talent and appearance, she is still dignified and virtuous, the old man is such a daughter, she has always been regarded as the pearl of her palm, and now the old man will marry her to you, how do you treat it?" ”
How are you staying? Damn, Yang Tinglin doesn't look like he's not a prefect, but like a married daughter of the king of Hades, you have to agree if you agree, if you don't agree, I'll hook it with a big stroke, and check off your Yangshou.
"Ahem! This Qin Mu's mouth has always been slippery, but at this moment, for some reason, he was like someone had been put on a dog skin plaster.
Well, Miss Yang, who is younger and more graceful than Princess Yushu, is really good, but after all, she has only met a few times, and she hasn't said ten words, let alone trying to love before marriage, isn't it a bit hasty to settle down like this?
Qin seemed to have forgotten that he had sent love poems to Qiao'er, which made people tie themselves on the roses early in the morning, and at this time Yang Tinglin took the initiative to get married, but he was a little hesitant.
This man! It's probably a bit cheap, and it's often a toast without drinking, and it's easy to get your hands on things, and you immediately feel bored.
Yang Tinglin snorted purplely: "What's the matter, my Zhi'er still wronged you?" In that case, let's treat it as an old man."
"Slow, slow, Uncle Yang, the little nephew doesn't mean that, the little nephew just feels that he is alone, he is still a seven-grade petty official from a high background, and his future is bleak, Ling Ai looks like a fairy, virtuous and virtuous, the little nephew is afraid that he has wronged Ling Ai, and I hope Uncle Yang will understand this hardship."
"The old man watched you do things, and he has always been decisive and decisive, so he directly talked to you about this marriage event, I never thought that you were so dragging mud and water, the old man wants you to tell the truth now, if you think the old man's daughter is not worthy of you, you can clearly say, if you don't dislike it, then the old man will be in charge, so decided."
Qin Mu licked his dry lips, the work of "trying love before marriage" seems to have to be soaked in a pig cage in this era, don't even think about it, so it must be or not?
***********************************
PS: This chapter was barely written, the reason is that I fell out of love, and this chapter is written to me, which is really ironic.
It's hard to fall in love for a long time
Who can stay together for the rest of their lives
In the end, no one opened their mouths and let go
Residual leaves drift with snow
but the tears did not flow
Spring silkworms, summer cicadas, geese and autumn
Wrinkles are thick and thick
It's okay, adjust it, write a book with peace of mind, everything outside the window, let it fade into the white clouds, and in the end, it is the support of book friends that is my only one.
