Chapter XXVII. Measurement
After drying these people for a day, of course, there are also people who spread the word.
The next day, he summoned these families again, and when these families expressed their willingness to pay for the bandits, Yang Yiwen comforted them, seeing that the money and food they gave was not too small, and gave a promise to arrest the murderer as soon as possible.
And Zhang Muzhi lived up to his mission and investigated everything clearly, he was originally capable, and he was able to master a thousand-person village at a young age, which shows his ability.
"Qiang? Sure? "The result is not unexpected, Yang Yi has long had information about the instability of the Qiang tribe, I didn't expect them to do it so quickly, of course, this is only a small group of Qiang people.
"Find out who they did?" Yang Yi asked with a frown.
"Yes, my lord, there are actually not many of these thieves nearby, the Qiang people are generally not around here, they have more in Hanzhong, and now there is a tribe that has moved here, in the mountains, some people nearby have seen some carts go up the mountain, and they will follow the route to track down, they are eligible." Zhang Muzhi thought for a while, and added: "The last general talked to the nearby Hanmin village, and this matter was done by the Qiang people. ”
After this army is formed, it is always necessary to pick a target to fight, and it is always impossible to go on an expedition to the Wei State, and as far as these soldiers trained by Yang Yi are concerned, if they go to fight the Wei State at this time, if they do not take the initiative to secretly weapon, they will be sent to death.
Even if Guan Yi is summoned, plus Zhang Muzhi, Wei Qiu and others are invited, it is the same.
"The last general ordered people to investigate, and found that these thieves have been here for many years, they only came to this mountain about ten years ago, there were thousands at the beginning, living in the mountains all the year round, unruly, disobedient to the king, relying on the dangers of the mountains and forests, repeatedly going down the mountain to loot when the weather was cold and frozen, because of the turbulent border situation in the past, they did not do anything big, no one paid attention to them, and as a result, they became more and more rampant, this time, they actually ran to the vicinity of Mianzhu City to commit the crime, which is also the first ......"
"Ten years ago? Thousands? Yang Yi pondered a little at this time, there were so many people at that time, and now it is worth paying attention to.
"Your Highness is worried, in fact, the Qiang people are similar to our Han people, they were originally poor people who went up the mountain, and most of them were old and young, and there were really capable and strong men, but there were not many."
It may not be much, but in the past ten years, the original young child has grown up and has become a problem in the heart, but Yang Yi has no intention of striking at this time.
"I see...... Let those villages in the mountains find someone who is familiar with them, and tell them that if they are willing to hand over the money they have plundered, they will be forgiven from their sins. After thinking about it, Yang Yi said with a sneer: "This matter will be left to you, it is best to find out as soon as possible." ”
"What does Your Highness mean?"
"Salute first and then soldier, this is my Han etiquette!" Yang Yi sneered and said.
Violence without teaching may be a little flawed morally, at this time
At the same time, the cottage of the Qiang people is full of joy.
This time down the mountain looting, the harvest is quite rich, not even many casualties, this victory, greatly encouraged the people in the village, not only this year can have a good year, the gold and silver can also be used to buy iron tools, whether it is to build weapons or farm tools, you can.
In this big mountain, it is not a big problem to feed their tens of thousands of people, and there are many barren mountains near the left, basically if it goes on like this, in another ten years, the current population can be doubled several times, and at that time, you can go down the mountain.
For these poor people, most of them can have meat and wine to eat, which is a good thing, but the elders of the clan have to think about the future.
Of course, you don't have to think too much about it now, and it's okay to live a good life now.
On the high post of the cottage, there are people who arrange to look into the distance vigilantly, but in the cottage, they are distributing grain, meat and silver.
After a few days of excitement, finally, someone entered the mountain.
In the cottage, the room where the elders deliberate.
"Great Elder, Elders, someone has entered the mountain." As a voice arrived, the door was pushed open, and a man spoke to the man in the middle.
They are said to be elders, but they are not all old people, and there are a few middle-aged people, and in the past ten years, the division of interests has already been completed, and each family member in more than a dozen villages is an elder.
"Who's coming?" The big boss asked.
"It's someone from the He family village who has something to do with us, and he said that he had something important to say." The second master said.
"People from the He family?" Several of the elders in front of them glanced at each other, although they were not familiar, but there was actually a marriage in secret, and the great elder asked at this time, "Where are the people now?" ”
"Let him wait in front, and he has sent some gifts, which are all placed there." The young man of the Qiang tribe who came to inform him said at this time.
"Okay, I'll go over and take a look!" As the Great Elder spoke, he was about to go out.
"Great Elder!" The Great Elder got up, after all, this is also a bit related, and he still has to see it, but as soon as he left, someone behind him suddenly thought of something, and shouted behind him.
"What's wrong?" The Great Elder stopped and looked back at him strangely.
The person who spoke frowned at this time and said: "Great Elder, I think that the He family came this time, it is very likely that it is for the incident two days ago, our people have done a big thing, this He family is Han, if there is a relationship with the official, what do you say?" ”
The Great Elder was originally smiling because he had a gift, but when he heard this, his eyes immediately showed a cold light: "If he really came to be a lobbyist, then he can't be tolerated!" ”
"Are you going to kill?" Someone suddenly asked.
The Great Elder was stunned at this time, and replied with a little embarrassment: "It's not necessary to kill it, but it's ...... If he really came to be a lobbyist for the officials, cut off his ears as a punishment! ”
A person standing up behind him said seriously at this time: "Why don't you go out, Great Elder, let me go to see him and hear what he is doing, how about it?" ”
"This ......"
The Great Elder was a little reluctant, his village was in front, and he was most involved with the He family, so he didn't want to be delayed because of this.
"Great Elder, when have we Qiang people ever been afraid of the Han people? Is it possible, are you really scared? At this time, someone said coldly: "Or, Great Elder, are you afraid that I will kill your in-laws?" ”
The Great Elder's face turned red and white for a while, and he finally couldn't help but slap the table: "Nonsense!" When have I ever been afraid of the Han Chinese? ”
"Isn't that it? If you go to see the person from the He family, he really says something, and you can't bear to do it, this is a woman's kindness, and it will only destroy the prestige of my Han people!
Then it is better for me to ask you what this family is from, if he is not for that matter, of course everything is easy to say, if he really came for this matter, he will have to cut off his ear and drive him down the mountain! The man who stood up at this time said in a tough manner.
This Qiang people are not monolithic, there are also a lot of disputes, the elder who spoke, is a radical, but also has a lot of strength, seeing him ask like this, the great elder had to nod and say, "Since this is the case, you go and ask." ”
The man's face was happy, and he said, "Then I'll go." ”
After the elder left, the Great Elder leaned back in his seat at this time and sighed: "Brother, don't let me down, I'm not the same as before, and I can't call all the shots in our clan!" ”
After a pillar of incense or so, there was another sound of footsteps outside the door, and then the elder who had just gone out walked in from outside, with a cold smile on the corner of his mouth.
“……”
"Great Elder, he really came to be a lobbyist, no wonder he looked different when he saw me when he came, this is a letter written to you by the Han people, if you are afraid, just hand me over!" Giving a letter to the Grand Master, the elder said with a gloomy face.
Picking up the letter and looking at the contents, the big boss's face changed several times, and he tore the letter into pieces with a sneer.
"If you have the ability, they will come, our Qiang people are not allowed to be bullied by them?" Then, looking at the elder: "The messenger ......."
"He is from the He family, and he is also related to the elders, I didn't want his life, this is cutting off one of his ears and driving him down." The elder pursed his lips at this time, and said unconcernedly.
"That's good, spare his life, it can be regarded as benevolence and righteousness." The Great Elder said helplessly at this time, but everyone didn't pay much attention to it, the Great Elder looked around the hall, and suddenly felt that time had flown by, and he was a little depressed.
Now it seems that this clan is completely out of control, should it be like those clansmen in Hanzhong to elect a patriarch, but now like this, it seems that it is no longer possible.
……
The war is approaching, once this starts, it will be difficult to stop in the future, Yang Yi has this hunch, and now she is asking Wei Qiu to step up the training of the Jinwu branch, which is equivalent to the emperor's pro-army, in the military, the pro-army is the top priority, not only to be loyal, but also to have martial arts, and to be able to block the killing move for the general when it is critical.
Every Jiangmen family has this kind of armor, of course, according to the different grades, the number is between tens and dozens, they are all warriors, and these people are all trained by fighting on the battlefield for more than ten years.
Among the scholars, too, they are called dead soldiers, and every family has a store.
"The affairs of internal affairs are complicated, the secretary has worked hard, and the military should not bother the secretary to deal with it, but the reward is connected to the land, and this matter must be discussed with you."
At this time, it is the time of the court meeting, of course, now the court meeting here in Mianzhu is simple, only some people in the palace, Yang Yi thought intently, for a long time, sighed and raised his head and said: "There are some regulations in Lonely, but they have not been considered as a whole, so I will listen to it first." ”
"Your Highness, please." At this time, the left and right Zhuqing sat on their knees and said at the same time.
Yang Yi said at this time: "Lone is now also a personal training, naturally I also know that this training is also a hard work, in this recruitment, physique, martial arts, military discipline, after the triple screening, only six or seven out of ten can pass!" ”
"Whether this unqualified person retreats to the field, or is it formed into an auxiliary army, let's not say first, this qualified person is now that the war is approaching, it will be arranged first, last time Li Qing said that ordinary people give thirty acres of land, I don't think it's good."
"What I have observed recently, a family, if you cultivate the land, these thirty acres are already the limit, no matter how much you have, it is difficult to have the need to struggle and shed blood, which is not conducive to farming and warfare. Speaking of this, Yang Yi swept over the two.
Yang Yi signaled to Li Huan at this time and said that he was the first in the history and the first priority of the prime minister's position after the establishment of the future system, and at this time, he naturally said it first.
"Your Highness, if it is farming, the minister estimates that a strong man needs at least 1 catty of coarse rice every day to be the basic, and the elderly, children, and women are a little less, but if you count oil, salt, sauce, etc., the number of rations is about the same, the average number of coarse rice per person per month is at least 30 catties, a household of five people, about one and a half stones, a household needs to eat fifteen stones a year." Li Huan thought about it and gave his own data as he spoke.
"A family of five, half of the water and drought, the yield per mu is about one and a half to three stones, two crops a year, that is, about four stones a year, so it is good to support the people, a household needs at least five acres of land, if half of the tax, ten acres can be raised."
This data is clear, and Yang Yi immediately understands it.
It will be revised in a moment
"Whether this unqualified person retreats to the field, or is it formed into an auxiliary army, let's not say first, this qualified person is now that the war is approaching, it will be arranged first, last time Li Qing said that ordinary people give thirty acres of land, I don't think it's good."

This data is clear, and Yang Yi immediately understands it. This data is clear, and Yang Yi immediately understands it.
"Your Highness, in addition to the acres of land, this farmer has other income, such as textiles, short-term labor, craftsmen, chickens and ducks, and so on." At this time, Ma Ting added: "Ten acres is enough to raise it." ”
"Good, loneliness is not a stingy person, then the first batch of residents, a family will be distributed with ten acres of basic land, if the population is large, one population will be increased by two acres; Those who came later were given eight acres per household; Those who come again can only pay six acres, and the tax will always be 30%, and it will not be levied in the first year. ”
