Great Military Division

Chapter 302 The internal rift of the family, the public ownership of private fields is beginning to show results!

Xinye, Deng's family.

study.

Deng Xun folded his hands behind his back, frowned, paced back and forth, looking up from time to time outside the room, as if he was waiting for some news.

This time, Deng Xun was really in a hurry. The entire Nanyang wealthy family regarded the Deng family, the Yin family and other aristocratic families as enemies. , beat up.

Although the county officials would still punish the perpetrators according to the law after reporting to the officials, this kind of thing has been repeatedly prohibited, which shows how much the Nanyang nobles hate the Deng family and the Yin family to an unprecedented degree.

But actually.
Deng Xun had already expected this situation. After all, after the annexation of the major clans, it was inevitable that his feet would not be exposed. But as long as the cultivated land was in his own hands, Deng Xun would not take this kind of thing to heart.

But now, not only did they not get the arable land, but even their own reputation was stinky. After working hard for several months, in the end, it was not worth the loss.

How could Deng Xun not be annoyed?

"Patriarch—!"

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded outside the house.

It's Deng Tong.

Deng Xun judged it all at once, and hurriedly raised his eyes to look around.

Without waiting for the other party to salute, Deng Xun waved his hand to interrupt, and asked eagerly: "How is the situation? Can the investigation be clear?"

Deng Tong nodded: "It's the person next to Yin Lu who got drunk and leaked what happened back then. The other party even insulted our Deng family, saying that we are despicable villains who use unscrupulous means."

In fact, things like land annexation were very common in the Eastern Han Dynasty, but most of them were annexations of ordinary people, who were disadvantaged groups. Even if they bullied you clearly, you still couldn't make any waves.

But this time is different, the Deng family, the Yin family and other aristocratic families are going to merge with the major aristocratic families in Nanyang. Although their strength is far inferior to the aristocratic families, they are by no means comparable to ordinary people.

Their family's riot may not cause any storms, but if it is a collective riot, even the big families like the Deng family and the Yin family will have to tremble.

The most important thing is that the current Nanyang wealthy family has transferred to the imperial court, and has made some of the land with a slightly lower quality within the family into public ownership of private land, and has become a vassal of the emperor.

In other words, the emperor of Hanting in Nanyang, which they rely on, has such a terrifying person backing him. No matter how well the Deng family and the Yin family can do it, it may be difficult to shake him.

"hateful!"

The anger in Deng Xun's heart rushed into his throat: "Yin Lu, this old guy, why didn't the accident happen sooner or later, but it happened at this time, and our Deng family was harmed by him."

Deng Tong cupped his hands: "My nephew was also very angry when he found Yinlu. He beat the drunk man half to death, expelled him from Yin's house, and left him to fend for himself."

"Humph!"

Deng Xun snorted angrily: "It's cheap for him!"

Deng Tong nodded: "Patriarch, what should we do now? The cultivated land that was sold before can no longer be taken back. I heard that the person who held the Deng family's cultivated land dedicated it to the imperial court and became public land."

"Nowadays, the Deng family in Nanyang is full of complaints. Not only have they lost a lot of land, they have even become the target of resentment by various wealthy families, asking us to give an explanation."

"These guys."

Deng Xun was so angry that his teeth itch.

At the beginning, when the group of people in the clan knew that it was profitable, they all came together like pugs one by one, wishing to wag their tails in front of you to flatter you.

But now, Yin, who annexed the major clans, has been completely exposed, causing the reputation of the Deng family to be damaged. They don't know how to help with advice, but they want to blame the patriarch instead, which is simply unreasonable.

It's hard to be a patriarch!

This is especially true for the patriarch of a large family!

Not only must he be able to withstand the internal pressure, but he must also be able to judge the external environment and lead the whole family to continue to thrive and grow on this land.

Deng Tong once again felt the difficulty of the patriarch.

He was obviously always thinking about the fate of the whole clan, but in the end, not only could the clan members not bear the burden with the clan leader, they would even add insult to injury and hurt others with bad words.

call-

Deng Xun covered his heart, let out a long breath, and tried to keep himself calm.

He was getting old, his body was getting weaker and weaker, and he couldn't bear too much stimulation.

"Patriarch, don't be upset, it's important to take care of your health."

Deng Tong hurried forward to help, quite concerned.

"I am fine."

Deng Xun took several deep breaths and managed to calm down.

He waved his hand, signaling that he could.

Immediately.

Go back to the front seat and sip tea: "Nephew, how is the situation at the court?"

Deng Tong sighed: "Zaozhi was promoted to be the rice field envoy, in charge of the reclamation of the imperial court's public land. Now the major wealthy families have registered their intentions. After waiting for the imperial court's review, the private land can be publicized and handed over to the imperial court in charge from next year."

"Oh?"

Deng Xun frowned, and continued to inquire: "What about the Tian Fu?"

Deng Tong replied: "This year's land tax still has to be paid, but starting next year, the imperial court will choose one-tenth of the collected land tax to distribute dividends to the actual holders of the cultivated land. One mu can get one bucket and one liter."

"One bucket and one liter?"

Deng Xun had to think.

"kindness."

Deng Tong nodded affirmatively.

Have to admit.

This data is just right.

After a rough calculation, it seems to be a bit of a loss, but if the miscellaneous costs are included in the accounting, the court's profit share is actually not too low at all, and it is at a barely acceptable level of cutting meat.

The most important thing is that the imperial court can obtain hundreds of thousands of acres of cultivated land without spending a penny, and tie the Nanyang nobles to the court's chariot, thus making His Majesty the emperor even stronger.

The feeling of uneasiness in Deng Xun's heart is getting heavier and heavier.

Although the imperial court has never attacked the Deng family, but only developed step by step, this hidden knife has repeatedly made Deng Xun palpitate, especially next year, it will surely usher in the first wave of tests.

After a pause, Deng Tong continued: "According to the information, the imperial court still has new measures for next year's farming, which can ensure a stable increase in yield per mu, and the actual income may not be lower than one bucket per liter."

"Is there any other measures for the imperial court?"

Deng Xun frowned and couldn't help being stunned.

"this."

Deng Tong can't guarantee it.

After all, the news came from a non-official channel: "The specific situation is unknown, but there are such rumors in the market."

Deng Xun didn't dare to deny it casually, and thought for a long time: "Among the members of the Deng clan, is there anyone who intends to register with the court?"

Deng Tong nodded: "Yes! In Rangxian County, Zhixian County, Bowang, Yuyang, etc., members of the Deng clan have registered their intentions, but most of them are cultivated land of poor quality in the clan, not all of the cultivated land."

"Not only our Deng family, but also the Yin family, Feng family, Li family and other aristocratic families, their clansmen in various counties also have intention to register with the government, and there are quite a few of them."

"Currently, the government is checking the cultivated land information, including land measurement, quality, etc. Some counties have already sent the intention registration information form back to the imperial court."

Deng Xun clenched his fists subconsciously, and the anger in his heart sprang up.

The court's move was so ruthless that it was so easy, they tied some members of the Deng clan to His Majesty's chariot and formed a united front with the emperor.

this means
Cracks have formed in the Deng family.

The power of His Majesty the Emperor has already begun to seep into it.

However, today's Deng Xun has no choice but to watch this kind of thing happen. At best, he can only manage three acres of land in Xinye. As for the rest of the Deng family, he has no right to interfere.

Although the fundamental function of farming is to produce food, on the surface, it seems that it is more worry-free to hand it over to the imperial court for management, and the output is not low, and the income will not be too bad.

But
However, Deng Xun deeply understood that with such an extra link in the middle, the lifeblood of his family is already in the hands of the court. One day the court will clean up you, it will be [-] times easier than it is now.

"Foolishness!"

These two words were almost squeezed out between the teeth.

Deng Xun was angry with him for not fighting, and felt resentful in his heart.

"Patriarch, what about us?"

Deng Tong pondered for a moment, and finally asked: "Should we send someone to notify that they are not allowed to publicize Deng's ancestral property, so that maybe it can be saved."

"That's it."

Deng Xun interrupted with a wave of his hand.

He knew the virtues of these people very well.

The current situation has caused the Deng's family to fall into a turmoil. If we send people to dissuade them now, I am afraid that it will cause unnecessary trouble and even confuse the situation.

This is what Deng Xun does not want to see: "They are all adults and should make their own decisions. We have done our duty, and the rest can be decided by them themselves, and we will not interfere."

Deng Tong had already expected Deng Xun's cold treatment, so he was not surprised at all.

but
Deng Tong pondered for a moment, frowned, and asked tentatively: "Patriarch, let's go to the Yin family?"

Before he could finish speaking, Deng Xun interrupted with a wave of his hand: "Nephew, do you really think it was a slip of the tongue caused by drunkenness?"

Deng Tong frowned: "What does the owner mean by this? Could it be that you think this was done on purpose by the Yin family? But what good is there for them to do this? After all, they are also victims now."

"No!"

Deng Tong shook his head, and directly denied: "The reason why the Yin family became victims is because the imperial court suddenly announced the publicization of private land. If there was no such incident, our Deng family would be the victims, and the Yin family would be the beneficiaries."

"Ah, this"

Deng Tong frowned and pondered for a moment.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is really the case.

If the imperial court hadn't announced the publicization of private land, then the Deng family would have been accused by thousands of people, and the Yin family could have taken advantage of the vacancy and seized the cultivated land wantonly, becoming the final winner.

Yin Lu and Deng Xun have always had grievances.

at this point.

It's the lice on the bald man's head, obviously.

Moreover, in the process of suppressing the price of cultivated land, Deng Yun has played tricks on the Yin family more than once. The Yin family has some grievances, and it is normal to want to fight back.

"It's possible."

Deng Tong nodded slowly, and tried to ask: "But Patriarch, do we have any evidence?"

Deng Xun twitched his beard and said with a sullen face: "There is no evidence! But besides the Yin family, who else would know what happened to us back then?"

The matter of secretly manipulating the price of farmland was originally a secret among secrets.

Even in the Deng family, not many people knew about this kind of thing, let alone others.

Only Yin Lu, a deadly enemy, would keep an eye on the Deng family's movements all day long, and learn the truth as quickly as possible, so he wanted to take the opportunity to follow suit and make more money.

of course!

This is just Deng Xun's speculation.

Deng Tong tentatively said, "Is it possible that it is His Majesty? After all, the imperial government's announcement of the publicization of private land is really too coincidental, and it has to be daydreamed."

"His Majesty?"

Deng Xun shook his head and gave his own judgment: "If His Majesty knew that we were secretly manipulating the price of farmland, he should have already attacked us. Why wait until now?"

"Is it possible to take Zhi'er's face into consideration?"

"Hmph! Zhi'er doesn't have that much face."

"That's true."

Deng Tong nodded slowly, and then ruled out the possibility of the imperial court: "From this point of view, this incident may indeed be a coincidence. Maybe His Majesty has already started planning for the publicization of private land."

"After all, Nanyang's rich family has no harvest this year, and it is difficult to collect land taxes. It is impossible for His Majesty to sit idly by. It is indeed reasonable to issue such a decree now."

Deng Xun thought so, and Nian Xu said grimly: "This old guy Yin Lu has been fighting with me for decades, and he has always been at a disadvantage. Now that he has made such a bad move, it is reasonable to want to completely reverse the defeat."

"but."

Deng Xun suppressed the anger in his heart: "My Deng family imitated the high-tube car, even if it will suffer next year, it will never be too bad, but your Yin family has nothing, I want to see how you survive! "

*****
Nanyang, Wancheng.

The Emperor's Palace.

Military Aircraft Pavilion.

In front of a huge sand table.

This is a super-large sand table centered on Nanyang, radiating Jingxiang, Ruying, Guanzhong and Heluo.

At this moment, Liu Bian, Xun Yu, Lu Su and Zaozhi all gathered together.

Liu Bian held the sketch drawn by Zaoyi and compared it with the sand table one by one, while Zaoyi carried a thin bamboo stick and described vividly beside him:

"Your Majesty, although the number of cultivated fields reported by the major families is not too large, and the quality is relatively average, but if you look at it together with the imperial court's public land, some acres are inadvertently connected into one piece."

"Look here."

Zaozhi pointed to the sand table near Wancheng, and said softly: "The acres contributed by the He family and the Zhu family are connected with the fields opened up by the imperial court and the fields of the Kong family."

"Although the quality of these cultivated fields is relatively average, and the yield per mu is less than one and a half stones, but in the final analysis, the reason is due to insufficient irrigation. The court only needs to increase canals and overturn carts to draw water to solve the problem."

"And here."

"."

Zaozhi was very excited, as if a whole new world had opened up.

Not to mention him, even the experts from the Military Advisors Alliance couldn't hide their excitement: "Master Bian, just now the experts input all the land information into the 3D intelligent program."

"Judging from the land resources we currently have, it can already be called a big family. Although it is not enough to compare with the Deng family, the Yin family and other families, it is already invincible."

"At present, experts are designing new irrigation schemes and planting schemes based on the conditions of rivers, ditches, and land. In addition to food, we can also plan a place to grow other crops."

"what?"

Liu Bian couldn't help being curious, and tried to ask: "If we don't grow crops, how will we distribute dividends to the wealthy family? Are these things reflected in the charter?"

The Alliance of Military Advisors followed: "Don't worry, Master Bian. It is stated in the regulations that if the cultivated land is used for other purposes, compensation will be made in currency and other forms based on the average yield per mu of similar plots of land."

"it is good."

Liu Bian heaved a sigh of relief: "The experts' consideration is really complete, and all these contents have been included."

The Military Division Alliance said with great certainty: "Of course! With practical experience, this issue can naturally be considered comprehensively."

Liu Bian exclaimed: "Admiration!"

"okay."

The military division alliance returned to the subject: "Let's get down to business. The experts will re-plan the water conservancy construction and strive to open up all the water networks in Nanyang. This is not only for irrigation, but also to ensure grain transportation and save transportation capacity."

"It will even be beneficial to attacking Jingzhou in the future. This will be the focus of our farming work next year, improving the Nanyang water conservancy network and laying the foundation for future development."

Liu Bian frowned, curious: "Teacher, why don't we open up wasteland next year?"

The Alliance of Military Division explained: "According to the analysis of experts, there is less and less land in Nanyang that can be reclaimed. If we continue to reclaim land on a large scale, the problems we will face will be very complicated."

"For example, to eliminate local wild beasts, adapt to local poisons and weeds, weeding, building water conservancy, improving the soil environment, studying the local planting environment, and even building houses to ensure manpower."

"These problems are relatively complicated. If you can not touch them, try not to touch them. Unless the population of Nanyang continues to skyrocket and farming can no longer meet the needs of the population, it is possible to spend a lot of effort to open up wasteland."

"but."

The military division alliance said in a twist: "It is estimated that by that time, the times will develop further, and it is even possible to find wild defeats and truly produce hybrid rice."

"In short, the response methods are different at different times. In a short period of time, experts will concentrate manpower and material resources where they should be used instead of wasting them on unnecessary things."

"it is good."

Liu Bian thought: "Listen to the experts."

For the planning of manpower and material resources, as well as the development of the strategic level.

Although Liu Bian has made considerable progress, he is still a bit immature in front of the expert-level military division alliance.

He is in a frenzy of learning, trying to rely on Nanyang County, so that he can basically master the development strategy of a place.

As long as you can fully grasp the development of Nanyang County, you will have a basic idea for dealing with a state, or even a country in the future, and you will not be like now, doing things that are not well adjusted and doing whatever you want.

"Oh, right."

The Military Division Alliance reminded: "Experts have prepared the design drawings of the ship. This kind of ship is not restricted by the direction of flow and wind, and it is definitely very easy to use inland."

"Moreover, experts have carried out in-depth design on it, and installed many things beyond the times. Master Bian can be used as a ferry to transport supplies in normal times, and can be converted into a warship to fight in wartime."

Liu Bian's eyes brightened suddenly: "So powerful? Are you afraid of arousing Jing Xiang and Liu Biao's suspicion?"

The Alliance of Military Advisors gave an explanation: "The reform of the civilian army is indeed a hidden effect, but it is not the most important thing. But we can indeed consider secretly training the navy. After all, Sun Jian's plan is Jingxiang and Jiangdong."

"no problem."

Liu Bian agreed without hesitation: "I will let Li Ren take charge of this matter, starting with the ship model, and strive to produce a batch of warships in batches next year."

"it is good."

The Military Division Alliance responded: "You deal with the matter here first, and when you have time, we will copy the design drawings. This is a little complicated and may take some time."

Liu Bian thought: "Yes! After the farming is over, I have a lot of time. Now that I am busy, I don't have to rush next year. I understand this."

"His Majesty!"

"His Majesty?"

Zaozhi yelled twice, and Liu Bian came back to his senses: "Well, what you said is very good. According to your current thinking, try to work out a farming plan for next year, just like we did at the beginning."

Zaoyi bowed his body and cupped his hands: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will complete the farming plan as soon as possible and report it to Shangshutai."

Liu Bian nodded and reminded: "Remember to take human, machine, material, material, law, and environmental factors into consideration, and today is different from the past, the environment has changed, and the plan must also change."

"kindness."

Zaozhi responded: "I have written it down."

Lu Su was a little dazed when he heard it, he felt like he was listening to a scripture from heaven, he couldn't keep up with Zao Zhi and His Majesty's thinking, he looked like a fool.

He only knows that there is a letter of responsibility for farming production tasks, but he doesn't know much about farming production plans, and things like people, machines, materials, materials, methods, and environment.

"My dear, don't worry."

Fortunately, Xun Yu enlightened in a low voice: "I will explain these things to you later. With your ability, there is absolutely no problem in mastering them in a short time."

"it is good."

Lu Su felt relieved and continued to remember carefully.

Although there are some things that I don't quite understand, after all, I am a person who came from farming and has a certain understanding of the imperial government's decrees. Combined with my actual situation, I have a rough guess.

Liu Bian reminded: "The water conservancy plan should be put forward as soon as possible. Even in winter, the things that should be prepared should also be prepared in advance. This is better than the farming plan."

"Your focus should be on the whole of Nanyang, not only for irrigation, but also for the driving of merchant ships, the transportation of grain and grass, etc. The functions of those ditches must be clearly marked."

"at this point."

Speaking of this, Liu Bian turned his gaze to Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo."

Xun Yu hastily cupped his hands: "Yes."

"You have to act as a reminder, a review, and help complete the water conservancy plan, understand?"

"Here."

Xun Yu secretly marveled.

His Majesty's thoughts are no longer limited to farming and irrigation, but are combined with military affairs and commerce. How forward-looking is needed to consider these issues at this time.

Starting to build the Nanyang water system network from now on, seven or eight out of ten are for the convenience of grain and grass transportation, and are preparing for the attack on Jingxiang, and integrating it into farming and water conservancy will not arouse suspicion from others.

Great!

It's really amazing!
"Zi Jing."

Immediately, Liu Bian turned to Lu Su.

"exist."

Lu Su responded.

"Leave the matter of water conservancy to Wen Ruo."

"so."

Liu Bian said softly: "You are responsible for the wintering of the people in Nanyang this year. Those people who have migrated must be properly resettled. If you need any supplies, just ask the court."

Lu Su bowed his body and cupped his hands and said, "Here."
