Chapter 36 Village Meetings

Hearing the two expressed their opinions, Gu Anshi nodded slightly.

It can make these two families bleed.

It can also appease the people in the clan a little bit.

For these two unbalanced mentality.

We are all family after all.

Look up, not look down.

Made it too stalemate.

It is also a problem for the unity of the people in the clan.

"In this way, our village has a total of 617 mu of land."

Hear Gu Anshi's words.

Yao Wanwan frowned slightly, and sighed inwardly.

Get rid of these two.

In this way, the whole village is counted.

None of them have even two acres of land.

Needless to say, their family has three acres of paddy fields and two acres of dry land.

There are fourteen people in the family.

In modern terms, the grain grown on one acre of land.

It can't be eaten by one person.

But now.

A good harvest per mu can weigh three hundred catties.

Rely on artificial fertilizer.

How is it possible to increase production by how much?

No matter how good the field is.

In a year with good weather and good weather, if the harvest can reach four hundred catties, it will be on top of the sky.

Drought, flood, locusts.

As long as you come across one.

It was completely wasted.

And the current water conservancy is not working.

Our country's water conservancy is also after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Under the leadership of the government, water conservancy began to flourish across the country.

If the harvest is not good.

That's just a few dozen catties.

Not to mention the hardships of the years.

There is no oil and water in the stomach.

It is completely supported by food.

Open up the words to eat.

A strong labor.

A meal of two catties of rice is not a problem.

These fields in the village.

At most, it can only guarantee the rations of a family of three.

Not to mention there are various taxes?

To know the taxation period of the Republic of China.

It can be said that there is no tax without goods, and no donation without goods.

Everything you can think of, everything you can't think of, is there.

Farming is in addition to paying regular taxes.

The hoes used, the chickens, ducks, geese and pigs in the house, died and put into the coffin, all of which need to pay taxes.

Take Yao Wanwan's memory as an example.

The taxes on their side have been paid more than 20 years later.

During the period of the Republic of China, the central government could not achieve complete unification.

The warlords act in their own way.

Acting recklessly in his own territory, he tried every means to collect all kinds of exotic taxes.

It is impossible to change officials locally.

As long as it is changed, all kinds of wonderful taxes will come down immediately.

It made the people miserable.

Even more exaggerated is a general of the Republic of China Army named Liu Houyan, whose taxation has been collected until 2050.

Farmers don't even need enough food to grow the land they plant.

You have to sell your sons and daughters.

Fortunately, they are surrounded by mountains.

There has been a saying since ancient times.

Relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to draft water.

Generally speaking, it will not starve to death.

"Other villages have also been counted. If calculated according to the population, an average person is in three acres, five points of paddy fields, and seven points of dry land." Gu Anshi said.

"Our village needs a total of 1336 mu like this, right?"

All nodded.

"Deducting the original 617 acres, we need to divide 719 acres from Chen Laizi's side."

"Currently, our village has rented and planted Chen Laizi's house... According to my statistics, the total is 830 two acres, which means we have to return 110 three acres of land to other villages."

"Da Zhu, give up the field on the Xiaolong Mountain side! The field over there is high-lying and inconvenient for irrigation, and it's far from our village. The other side is the Xiaohuang Mountain side."

Gu Anshi nodded slightly, "I know, you don't need to tell me, the fields outside the village must be given up."

"At present, there are some families who rent more land, but their population is relatively small, and they cannot divide so many fields. Some families have a large population, and less land rents."

"If this is a land distribution, wouldn't it be a disadvantage for those with a large population and few tenants? After all, they have been busy for half a year, don't you think?"

"That big pillar! There is another situation, that is, the elders of my family are all grown up, and they are going to get married soon. If you divide the land according to the population, then my family will be at a loss. ?” A villager stood up and said.

"That's right, the kids in our family are all grown up, and they're getting married soon. If we divide them according to the population, it will be a disadvantage."

Immediately, the scene started to be noisy.

Once it involves your own interests.

No matter how honest you are.

That also refused to back down half a step.

After all, it has been a few months of hard work.

Who is willing to give up food to others?
"Okay, stop arguing, what are you arguing about? There is no need to pay rent, so what if you lose a little?" Gu Anshi roared angrily.

"Dazhu, you speak lightly. How many people do you have in your family? How many acres have you rented and planted? You have taken advantage of it. Who wouldn't say such sarcastic remarks?"

"Presumptuous! Straw dog, do you still have a group of old guys like us in your eyes? How did you talk to Da Zhu?" Gu Fugui slapped the table hard and said in a cold voice.

"Sixth Lord, you said it lightly. According to what you mean, it means that I have been busy for nothing these past few months?"

"Why don't I say something!" Yao Wanwan said calmly, looking at the noisy crowd.

Gu Anshi glanced at Yao Wanwan, "What did you say?"

Yao Wanwan said indifferently, "The people from the new government haven't come yet, if we directly divide the land, what do you want the leaders of the new government to think of us?"

"It's not as good as this year. The big guys will harvest all the rice together, and then plant it together."

"As for the harvested grain, apart from taxes, a part of it will be set aside to compensate those who rent more crops, and then it will be distributed equally according to the population in the village."

"How many laborers, how many women, how many children, in this way, can also guarantee fairness and justice. What do you think?"

"But you said that you want to pay according to the number of acres you rent and plant, and how much compensation is required. This is absolutely impossible. One mu compensates for [-] to [-] catties of grain."

Gu Anshi and the clan elders also nodded slightly after hearing Yao Wanwan's words.

It is not too little to compensate for twenty or thirty catties of grain.

To know the words of some fields.

This harvest is only a few dozen catties of grain.

"Do you have any questions about this proposal from Old Shuan's family?" Gu Anshi asked, and shook his head when he saw everyone.

Then he whispered to several clan elders.

Gu Anshi glanced at Yao Wanwan in surprise, "In this case, families who rent a lot of land will be subsidized by 25 catties of grain per household. Of course, families with a large population and those who rent less land will also be slightly reduced or exempted from grain. Fairer and fairer."
