In the council hall of the Masara Mansion on Notaka Mountain, the council hall fell into an awkward silence due to the lord's order to "kidnap" the homeless.

Masarashi glanced at the retainers below, and Togo Heiji still wanted to speak; Onishi is thoughtful; Tsuda Hiromune had an unobjectionable expression, in his consciousness, as long as he did not harm the homeless people, and could bring stability to the homeless, and how troublesome it was to lure such a strategy, just pull them directly to the territory; As for Kosuke and Tadajiro, they look like they take it for granted, after all, they used to do this a lot.

"Well, let's just decide. Kokuji and Kosuke, you are in charge of spreading false information about the territory and recruiting the homeless, while Heiji is in charge of settling the homeless, and all the homeless people are arranged to be reclaimed on the side of the wasteland that is being reclaimed southwest of Notaka Town", Masarashi made a final decision, and then continued, "What is the agricultural tax of Haoqiang in the vicinity now?" ”

"Your Highness, the nearby Haoqiang is taking the agricultural tax of eight gongs and two peasants, and if there is a war, it will even be nine gongs and one farmer", Onishi Kuniji said extremely indignantly. The people next to him were also full of anger, only Togo Heiji lowered his head in embarrassment, he used to be the head of the Togo branch, and the townspeople of his territory also adopted this agricultural tax.

"What?" In such an era of extremely backward agricultural technology, isn't such a tax policy tantamount to starving the peasants to death? If you don't want to starve to death, you have to go up and down to the mountains and the sea to look for something to eat, no wonder there are bandits and pirates everywhere.

"Yes, Your Highness, basically all the powerful people in Songpu County use this kind of agricultural tax, if you adopt an agricultural tax that is better for the farmers, it is easy to attract the hostility of the nearby powerful and powerful, of course, if you have enough strength, you don't have to be afraid of the threat of the nearby powerful at all, you can also use a lower agricultural tax", Togo Heiji reminded in a low voice.

"Hmm," the political conscience silently calculated, and at the same time considered whether it was necessary to adjust the policy he drafted overnight last night according to the actual situation. After frowning and thinking for a while, Masara continued, "Starting from next month, the collective ration law of the current territory will be abolished, and all the people in the territory will be given a one-time distribution of 5 buckets of grain per month according to the standard of 5 buckets of miscellaneous grains per month for adults and 3 buckets of miscellaneous grains per month for children, so that they can hold on until the end of the autumn harvest in September, and then they will be self-reliant." Starting next month, the lords will be free to manage their existing fields, and the territory will no longer provide food subsidies, and those who cannot take care of the fields by themselves will be arranged by Matsumiko, and the fields will be included in the public fields of the territory, and the grain will be distributed according to labor contributions after the autumn harvest. ”

"Your Highness, according to your arrangement, this time you need about 600 stone of grain, plus yesterday's arrangement, the current territory needs to consume more than 2,000 stone of grain", Dongxiang Heiji felt that this lord began to make the mistake of "loser" again, the territory just had a little food reserves, and according to the lord's squandering speed, it would soon be exhausted, so he had to say something to remind Masashi.

Zhengliang smiled slightly and said, "Pingji, your calculation is less, it is more than 4,000 stones, and there is also a budget for the expansion of the territory of 2,000 stones, and the territory will carry out a large-scale water conservancy and road construction, which will also cost a lot of food." ”

"Huh?" , Togo Heiji almost jumped. According to his thoughts, the lord guarded the captured grain, at least he could let the territory survive this winter, but he found that he had far underestimated the speed of the lord's "loser", and he was stunned for a while, and he was speechless for a long time. Everyone was also frightened by Masayo's plan, and they all looked at the lord.

"Hehe, everyone, with the continuous increase in the population of the territory, the original territorial law is no longer suitable for the further development needs of the territory", Zhengliang can't talk to these people about how to stimulate the enthusiasm of production and the theory of "money makes money" hundreds of years later, so just briefly analyze it, and forcibly implement his own orders in line with the idea of understanding to implement and not understanding to execute, "Here are some territorial laws I drafted last night, everyone circulate them", after speaking, Masara beckoned to Kizaburo, who had been standing behind him holding several pieces of paper. …,

Kisaburo immediately handed the paper to Masahiro, who picked up the pieces of paper and slightly modified the contents one by one with a brush, and then handed them to the people below.

The laws on these papers were all formulated by Zhengliang overnight last night according to the actual situation of the current territory, and they are collectively referred to as the laws of the Luo clan. As far as Masara knows, the family was not the first person in this era to formulate the special laws of the family, and before him, in Kyushu, there were the "Sagara Clan's Law" of the Sagara family and the "Ouchi Family Wall Book" of the Ouchi family; A little further away are the Asakura family's "Asakura Takakeijo", the Imagawa family's "Imagawa Names Catalog", and the most famous Date family's "Dust Mustard Collection".

The beginning of "The Law of the Roche" first clarifies that the law will be the only law of all the territories of the Luo family. The first part of the text of the law is about the land ordinance, which has three main contents:

1. All the land, trees, and rivers in the territory belong to the lord, and the lord leases the land to the lord. Each household must register the status of the land in detail and pay taxes regularly. The land can be inherited by designated relatives, and if no one inherits it, it will be taken over to the territory.

2. Land is not allowed to be bought and sold without the approval of the lord

3. Each household is only allowed to have a maximum of five anti-fields (1 anti = 10 acres) and two anti-forest land.

Since the current territory is made up of displaced people who have no land, or peasants who own a small amount of land, and there are no people who own more than the land limit, there will be no resistance to its implementation. But with the expansion of the territory in the future, there will inevitably be some obstacles, and Masato is not worried about this, because those who can exceed these limits are originally some local tyrants, and if they want to get their land, they must be defeated, and as the defeated side, they can only be at the mercy of Masaliang. Of course, the main purpose of enforcing this edict is to prevent the emergence of new tyrants in their own territory in the future. For his own retainers, Masahiro was prepared to adopt the system of slugger and try to avoid rewarding land.

The second part of the main text of the law is about the status of the people and the agricultural tax, which has two main contents:

1. There are three main identities in the territory: the subject, the servant, and the slave.

First-level people, the agricultural tax is eight gongs and two farmers;

second-level people, the agricultural tax is seven public and three farmers;

The third-level people, the agricultural tax is six public and four farmers;

Fourth-level people, the agricultural tax is five public and five peasants;

The fifth-level people, the agricultural tax is four public and six people.

Servitude: Citizens of the original territory who violate the laws of the territory will be demoted to hard labor, and will be subject to a certain number of years of long-term forced labor according to the degree of violation, and there will be no remuneration for the period of forced labor. After the expiration of the period of conscription, the status of the original subject can be restored.

Slaves: Captured personnel of the enemy, who are subject to a certain number of years of long-term conscription according to the degree of harm to the territory, and there is no remuneration for the duration of the conscription. After the expiration of the period of conscription, they can become a first-class consular citizen.

2. Explanation of the improvement of the status of the consular people:

First-class Territory: From the date of settlement in the territory, it is a first-class Territory.

Second-level Subjects: After settling in the territory for one year, first-level subjects will automatically become second-level subjects;

First-level subjects who send their relatives over the age of six and under the age of 14 to the territorial academy within one year of settling in the territory, and ensure that the schoolchildren participate in the study organized by the academy on time, will automatically become second-level subjects.

Third-level Domain: After the Territory has been settled for three years, the Domain will automatically become a Level 3 Citizen;

At the same time, regardless of the number of years of residence, all the lords, as long as one person in each household becomes the ashigaru of the lord, will automatically become a third-level lord; In addition, contributions to the realm can also be granted by the lord himself to third-level lords.

Fourth-level Lords: All Lords, as long as one of the samurai in each household becomes a lord, they will automatically become Tier 4 Lords.

At the same time, a significant contribution to the realm can be granted by the lord of the fourth level of the lord himself.

Level 5 Lords: Significant contributions to the realm can be granted by the lord himself. …,

Originally, the agricultural tax of the lowest level of the people formulated by Zhengliang was seven public and three farmers, but it was revised after listening to the opinions of Dongxiang Pingci and fully considering it; According to the law, an ordinary lord settles in the territory of eight gongs and two peasants in the first year, seven gongs and three farmers in the second year, and six gongs and four peasants in the fourth year; At the same time, in order to encourage the people to actively participate in the academy and military strength of the territory, some preferential regulations have been added accordingly; Of course, the agricultural tax cannot be made too easy to obtain by the people, if an ordinary citizen intends to live simply, at most it is the agricultural tax of six gongs and four peasants, and if he wants to obtain five peasants and five peasants, or even four peasants and six peasants, he must participate in the military strength of the territory or make significant contributions; The last is the issue of fairness, the above-mentioned law is unable to take care of those families whose children are in infancy, or even have no children, let alone young and strong men, it can be said that these are the most vulnerable groups, how to protect these families, the next law has a corresponding explanation.

The third part of the main text of the law is a decree on territorial servitude, which has five main contents:

1. Abolish all rents in the territory except for agricultural and commercial taxes.

2. The people of the territory participate in the conscription under the organization of the territory, and the meals during the conscription period are uniformly distributed by the territory, and the territory gives reasonable remuneration according to the amount of labor (mainly grain).

3. Residents in difficulty at home can apply for relief at the designated place in the territory, and after verification, the territory will provide relief every month according to the minimum ration, and the maximum relief time is one year.

4. Residents who lack farm tools can rent them at the designated place in the territory, and the maximum rental time is seven days.

5. Relief and lease repayment:

repay directly with grain or coins;

After the autumn harvest every year, it is repaid with grain or coins;

After participating in the conscription of the territorial organization, the territory is deducted from the remuneration due.

Here, Zhengliang used the concept of "loans" in later generations to allow the people to apply for agricultural tools and even grain, which could be returned at a later stage, which greatly protected the survival of those vulnerable groups in the early stage of the settled territory; At the same time, the people were encouraged to actively participate in conscription.

The fourth part of the main text of the law is a decree on the secrecy of the territory, which has five main contents:

1. Subjects are not allowed to leave the territory without the approval of the lord;

2. The people are not allowed to mention to anyone any information related to the territory, such as the law and techniques;

3. Once a suspicious or unfamiliar person is found, it must be reported to the territory in a timely manner, and after verification, if it does not reach the third-level territory, it will be directly promoted to the third-level territory; Those who have reached the third level of the lord will be rewarded with 5 stone grain.

4. Where a report violates the confidentiality regulations, after verification, if it does not reach the level of third-level consular citizens, it is directly promoted to third-level consular citizens; Those who have reached the third level of the lord will be rewarded with 5 stone grain.

Many of the policies and techniques that Masahiro is now implementing in his territory are beyond this era, and once they are obtained by the enemy's strength, they will not only increase the strength of the other party, but also greatly threaten themselves, and these things must be kept strictly secret when they are not strong enough. However, it is difficult to achieve secrecy only by relying on the defense power of the territory, so the only way to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the people of the territory is to become the watchdog of secrecy.

The fifth part of the main text of the law is about the civil weapons of the territory, which has five main contents:

1. Without the permission of the lord, it is not allowed to possess swords, spears, foot tools, bows and arrows and other weapons specified by the territory;

2. Those who already possess weapons must hand them over to the territory, and the territory will give corresponding food and money compensation;

(3) Any private possession, once discovered, shall be confiscated immediately, and the person who conceals it shall be punished with a certain amount of hard labor.

In fact, this is the "knife hunting order", although the territorial law makes the farmers benefit a lot, but it is difficult to rule out that they will still be bewitched by some people, and then make a pinch or even a pinch all the time, so it is enough to toss themselves, so in order to prevent it from happening, it is better to implement this measure as soon as possible. …,

The last article in the main text of the law is the sixth article, which is mainly about the decree on territorial rewards and punishments, and there is only one ordinance, but the content is very detailed, mainly listing the content of daily civil crimes, and clarifying the corresponding number of years of labor that need to be borne once these contents and the laws of the territory are violated. For whistleblowers, a certain food reward is given.

The entire "Roche's Law" has a total of six articles and eighteen regulations. For a long time, it is to adapt to the needs of the territory, it has not violated the interests of most of the people in the territory, and even the vast majority of people are beneficiaries, for the territory occupied in the future, Zhengliang is ready to adopt a high-pressure policy and enforce it, of course, this will cause some of these territories to conceal the resistance of the farmers and the original local tyrants, especially for the local tyrants who surrendered voluntarily, in this regard, Zhengliang is ready to take the way of repayment or even direct elimination to solve.

The Fadu generally confirmed many of the requirements so that the people could quickly settle down and ensure the interests of the majority. Of course, due to overgeneralization, there are still many loopholes. For example, the arrangements for the implementation of specific policies, the specific reward and remuneration standards, etc., are not clearly stipulated, and even some loopholes can be exploited, which need to be continuously improved in the future.
