Improper cannon fodder for fast wear

Chapter 1651 True and False Princess 31
The Minister of the Household Department explained the reason and said: "It's not that the number of deaths has increased, but that many people have gone to the rebels in the north. Too many people have gone, and now it has seriously affected tax revenue and food production. Tax revenue will be further reduced. If there is no food, the treasury will dry up; if there is no food, the army will not be able to support it. Your Majesty must make a decision as soon as possible, or something will happen sooner or later."

Now the South refers to An Ran as a rebel from the North.

Since they didn't think that An Ran was Princess Fu'an, her name would naturally not be called that, so naturally they couldn't call her, and they didn't know her real name, so they just called her the Northern Rebel.

Emperor Jianfeng felt chills when he heard the report from Minister of the Household Department. He instinctively understood that An Ran was using another method to attack the south, a way to kill the enemy invisible. It is also very likely to be successful-if this continues, if there are only 200 million people in the south, how can they survive?The dignitaries couldn't even find the waiters.

Realizing that the danger was imminent, Emperor Jianfeng hurriedly summoned the cabinet and six ministers to discuss what to do about this matter.

This was originally what the ministers wanted Emperor Jianfeng to know, so when the meeting was held at this moment, everyone realized that this matter could not continue, so they quickly reached a consensus: the escape order was also promulgated in the south, Those people are not allowed to flee.

Although the northern rebels and the "fake" Princess Fu'an once said that whoever issues the escape order will be beaten... Anyway, if it is not issued, they will die, so whoever is afraid of whom, just hit if you have the ability.

But they were too worried, An Ran didn't plan to attack the south for the time being, so even though they heard that they had promulgated the escape order, they didn't bother with it. Anyway, immigrants have formed an industrial chain, and there is no need to be afraid that the escape order can really control the current population fleeing. Happening.

But in the south, Emperor Jianfeng thought that he would be able to control the matter by issuing an escape order, but he underestimated the motivation of capitalists to risk their lives for profit.

But he said that although everyone in Houqi was aware of the danger, everyone from the king to the ministers planned to stop it.

But... the benefits are touching, and the profits of transferring people are getting more and more lucrative. Who is willing to make a living? Some people even think that it doesn't matter if the land is not planted. Anyway, the rewards for transferring people every year are better than farming. How about more money--now transfer one person to the past, they can get almost ten taels of silver, as long as the successful transfer of 1 people in a year, there will be 10 taels of income, if this can transfer 10 people, how much will it be Money; besides, if they don’t do this, they will let others do it, so not only do it, but also rush to do it, so that the future people will not be able to transfer it, and there will be no one to transfer it, and they will not be able to make a fortune.

At that time, the south will really not be able to survive. They are afraid of being rich if they have money. At worst, they will take that large sum of money and go to the north to buy fields and continue to live.

Although the northern fields are said to be nationalized and the buyer only has the right to operate, it is said that the tax paid is extremely low, even if they only have the right to operate, it is still cost-effective. Moreover, it is said that the right to operate is extremely long, and one purchase can have the right to operate for 30 years , which is no different than having ownership.

The more I think about it, the more those families who participated in the early stage of the population transfer, and now the transfer route is mature and the profits are huge, the more they continue this business, and they are not afraid of transferring all the people. What a terrible situation the South will fall into .

So... Although there is an escape order, it exists in name only. Except for some people who have not participated in this cause, they feel that their interests in farming have been damaged, and they will risk their lives to sue the imperial court. Most of the others did not say anything, and even Help cover it up, because there are more and more people in this business who don't want to hurt themselves.

In fact, those who risk their lives to inform people are indeed risking their lives, because those with vested interests will find ways to kill them.

When Emperor Jianfeng heard that there were still people helping to transport people, he was naturally furious, and ordered the people below to control them strictly.

But...Emperor Jianfeng, who was unable to get government orders out of the small imperial court in the south, didn't have much execution power at all.

As more and more people dared to report this matter in front of the imperial court, Emperor Jianfeng didn't know how the people below were doing, and what he got was always the illusion of peace and prosperity, and An Ran didn't attack the south, which also made this illusion more and more serious. more real.

This is what An Ran wants.

Emperor Jianfeng didn't know the situation outside, and didn't know that after the escape order was promulgated, people in the south not only ran away, but also ran more and more.

This is also normal.

As far as An Ran knows, although the south has a well-developed water system, it is convenient for farming, but there are many people and little land. Most families do not reach the level of three acres of land per capita. A family of more than ten people, old and young, can have several acres of Susukida. Not bad at all.

But in the north, there are more than a dozen people, not too many, just like a family of fifteen people-although the death rate is high in this era, family planning is not implemented at the same time, because parents do not separate families, and a family of ten people It is still common for a family of five to share 45 mu of land, and the family business can be expanded five to ten times in one go. In addition, there is no need to spend money to pick up someone in the north (this is what An Ran has repeatedly emphasized. money from immigrants), who would not want to go and have a look, anyway, everyone heard from relatives and friends that the living conditions there are excellent, so it is normal to go north.

In the beginning, there were only those who were brave enough to go. Slowly, as more and more people knew that the living conditions in the north were good, those who were not so brave also ran away. Now, even the timid people are willing to go. After reading it hard, there is no way, all the relatives and friends around have left, and I read their letters saying that I got rich there, are you not envious?Naturally, I went over to have a look. Anyway, everyone else has been there for a few years, and they are all fine, so what are you afraid of?

And so the frenzy of immigration began.

And this is also what the rich and powerful people in the south like to see. After all, the more people go, the more they earn. If it weren't for Princess Fu'an's order, they couldn't force others to go, or they would have to go to make money. They would abduct some people there, and even ventured across the tropical rainforest to catch some natives from the tropical continent and sell them. After all, compared with the profit, even if they caught some natives from the tropical continent to sell, it was cost-effective.

But I was afraid of Princess Fu'an's intelligence network in the south - after someone did this, they were rejected by the North for business cooperation - so everyone was honest. When I checked, they used to force people to go to the north, and it would be a disaster to make trouble for them.

Since he is optimistic about An Ran, he naturally does not dare to disobey An Ran's orders, lest he will settle accounts later when he is ruled by her.
