A Millennium Aristocratic Family Starting from the Shang Dynasty

Chapter 445 The Appearance of the Lelang County Family Manor
The sky was bright, but the entire city of Pyongyang was completely different from before.The soldiers of Daqian have taken control of the whole city. At the same time, Wang Yun has also sent people to see Huo Qubing, and then brought the coalition forces of Daqian and Yan.Then the strong wind swept the Jizi North Korea like falling leaves.

The entire Jizi North Korea was occupied by the allied forces of Daqian and Yan. Wang Yun escorted the leader of Jizi North Korea, along with members of the royal family and a large number of nobles, back to the country.

Next, Wang Yun began to divide Jizi Korea according to Wang Xin's order.The books in Jizi's Joseon palace were plundered, and the wealth in the treasury was distributed by Wang Yun and rewarded to meritorious ministers.

The nobles of Jizi North Korea were also raided. Even in the barren land of Jizi North Korea, these nobles were extremely rich.

Wang Yun rewarded many daughters of Jizi Korean nobles to those who had made great achievements, and then sent the best part of them to Luoyang, the sacred capital.In addition, Wang Yun also looted all the craftsmen in Jizi North Korea, and sent the best part to Luoyang, and then sent the rest to Yan State.

Jizi North Korea is hundreds of miles away and has a population of hundreds of thousands. Its population is 10,000+ more than that of the Yan State. If it were not for the support of large cadres, the overall strength of the Yan State would not be comparable to Jizi North Korea. Of course, its military strength is still Yan State is stronger.

After defeating Jizi North Korea, Wang Yun established Lelang County in the Pyongyang area. The county governed Pyongyang and had jurisdiction over the plains south of Pyongyang. The rest of the country was handed over to the rule of Yan.

This operation basically divided the peninsula into three. Daqian occupied the most essential plain part of the peninsula, and left the rest to Yan State.Of course, these mountainous areas are not without their benefits. There are iron ore and copper mines in these areas, which are quite good.

It took three months for the prisoners of Jizi North Korea to be escorted to the capital.Wang Xin held a ceremony to present prisoners. In any era, destroying a country, capturing its king, and presenting it to the emperor is a great achievement.

After completing the prisoner presentation ceremony, Wang Xin directly ordered the death of the leader of North Korea. As for the noble daughters of North Korea, some of them were enriched in the harem, and the other part were rewarded.

At the same time, the imperial edict was issued to select officials to serve as county guards in Lelang County.

Wang Xin divided Lelang County separately, partly to prevent Yan State from becoming too powerful and allowing Daqian to lay a nail on the peninsula, and partly to develop maritime transportation.

Since the plan to destroy the country across the sea was successful, Wang Xin had more ideas about the ocean and sea ships.Although the success of this cross-sea annihilation was largely due to the artifact of the wind-controlling flag, it also proved the convenience of sea-going ships.

The navy soldiers and craftsmen who participated in this cross-sea extermination of the country have become fanatical believers in the royal family after witnessing the miracle of the royal family calming the storm.These people already have some experience, so Wang Xin will naturally not let them go.The craftsmen were ordered to continue to move closer to the ship, while the navy soldiers continued to drill and control the ship.

Accompanying them are officials from Qintianjian. These officials from Qintianjian will be responsible for collecting weather, hydrology, wind direction and many other issues into a book.

Obviously, after Wang Xin destroyed the country across the sea, he was ready to light up the navigation technology tree.

Our ancestor King Wen once left written records in many classics to record the importance of the ocean. The court has always attached great importance to it, and this is also a way out for the Wang family.

The successive heads of the Wang family knew very well that fate would not always favor the Wang family. When fate ended, they would have to lie dormant.Although they still have the protection of King Haotianwen, those powerful officials, officials, and aristocratic families who have been suppressed by the Wang family are not willing to return to this state.Even in order to prevent the Wang family from regaining the destiny, these people are likely to add insult to injury. Therefore, Wang Xin supports Kaihai because he wants to prepare another escape route.

With the Wang family's promotion of the Academy, decades later, the Academy scholars had occupied a large number of official positions in the court, officially replacing the nobles and becoming the powerful people in the Daqian court.

With the emergence of Confucian scholars, Confucian classics families have gradually begun to take shape in the past few decades.

Generations of classics scholars summarized their experiences and compiled them into books for future generations.Because there is an academy, most classics can be read, but the annotations left by the great sages have become heirlooms of their respective families.

These families rely on these annotations to vigorously cultivate their offspring, and then go to the academy to study and take exams.This method is equivalent to going to a famous teacher for private tutoring after class. How can ordinary academicians compare with them?
In order to allow the students at home to get out of work and concentrate on studying, these Confucian classics families began to annex land and gather together to live.Even in order to avoid the imperial decree restricting land annexation, families began to be divided into numerous household registrations, and the land was assigned to the names of these people.

He also opened a school at home, allowing the children of the family to come to study, and then be trained after being screened.Nowadays, there are already many such models of aristocratic family estates in local areas.

In real history, this aristocratic manor model appeared in the Han Dynasty, then grew rapidly through the Wei and Jin Dynasties, reached its peak in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and finally declined and disappeared in the Tang Dynasty.

Since the fall of the Chu Kingdom, the development of Jingxiang Land has slowed down.At this time, there were a large number of Hezes in the land of Jingxiang, and the population was much smaller than that of the Central Plains.

However, in the later years of Emperor Wu and after decades of stability in Daqian, the population multiplied massively, and a large number of people also entered the Jingxiang land.

Chen's Manor is located in the east of Daze, where more than [-] Chen family households live. This manor has [-] hectares of fertile land.After Chen Sheng became an official decades ago, he sold off his land in Luoyang and moved his family south here.

There are hundreds of houses in the manor, where the Chen family and their slaves live. There are a large number of woods on the right side of the house, including jujube, peach, plum, apricot, pear, persimmon, chestnut, rose apple and other fruit trees.

There is a row of wooden houses in front of the woods. In the wooden houses, cattle, sheep, horses and other livestock are raised. Behind the houses is a large bamboo forest and mulberry forest. There is also a pond next to it, which contains carps, crucian carp, eels and many other fish. There are even fishes by the river next to it. There are three water mills.

On the outer edge of the manor, there are also a large number of slave tenants living. These people farm for the Chen family. Even though the court encourages land reclamation and provides preferential treatment, there are still many people who would rather join the wealthy and powerful than open up land on their own.

Such a manor is almost completely self-contained. Almost all daily necessities and production materials can be traded internally. A small market is formed inside the manor. Except for a few items that must be purchased from outside, the manor is almost complete. A small kingdom.

Such small manors have begun to appear all over the world. Of course, such manors are basically in remote areas. These manors are even encouraged by local officials because they are easy to manage and actively pay taxes.
