  Chapter 96 094【Occupy Huangjia Town】

  Jiang Dashan's actions are not smooth, because he has a foreign surname, and many people don't listen to him.

  Huang Yao and Huang Shun quickly broke the situation. They first recruited the masons, and threatened that if they killed any more, they would not give them any land. More than a dozen stonemasons were separated, each looking for a tenant with a good relationship, half threatening and half dissuading, so that everyone stopped.

  As for Zhang Tieniu and Chen Maosheng, they had no acquaintances in the villages and towns, so they could only violently rescue women and children along the way.

   Well, Chen Maosheng is no longer an atmosphere group.

  Zhang Tieniu was in charge of rescuing people, while Chen Maosheng was in charge of soothing people's hearts and letting women and children follow behind him.

  With just one stick of incense, the situation has stabilized.

  A tenant regained his sanity, looked at the corpses all over the ground, and vomited out with a "wow".

  Zhao Han did not take any action himself, but carefully observed the situation.

  Jiang Dashan has courage and brains, but because of his foreign surname, he is often isolated.

  Huang Shun, courageous, a little irritable in his work, directly beat and kicked tenants who did not listen to persuasion. But taking the overall situation into consideration, when Zhao Han summoned his men, he came only after stopping the arson incident.

  Huang Yao, who doesn't talk much, is calm and delicate, has strong self-control and execution ability, and has a high prestige in Huangjia Town.

  If Zhao Han did not show up and they rebelled on their own, Huang Yao must be the leader of the peasant army.

   "Mr. Zhao, help!"

  Master Huang's confidant servant Huang Sanshui, who was not beaten to death, crawled out with a bruised nose and a swollen face to beg for mercy.

  Huang Shun walked over quickly, stepped on his vest, and stomped Huang Sanshui to the ground: "Master Zhao, anyone can be spared, but Huang Sanshui alone can't be spared."

  Huang Yao and Jiang Dashan also came, one with a pole and the other with a shovel, ready to beat Huang Sanshui to death at any time.

  Huang Sanshui shouted in horror: "Master Zhao, help me, I know where Huang Zundao's money is hidden!"

  Zhao Han smiled and said, "Tie it up."

  Zhang Tieniu carried an ax and led Chen Maosheng this way, followed by a group of old and weak women and children.

  They collected all the survivors, and Chen Maosheng was doing ideological work while walking: "My son is kind-hearted, and he is dedicated to making decisions for the poor. Don't be afraid, as long as you listen to your son, he will protect you..."

  Zhao Han took a glance and asked, "Is it all ready?"

  Of course no one is willing to leave. The tenants and masons are still waiting for Mr. Zhao to divide the land.

   "You guys, are you willing to listen to me?" Zhao Han asked.

  Jiang Dashan suddenly knelt down: "It's all up to Mr. Zhao, and we all listen to Mr. Zhao!"

   "Listen to Master Zhao!"

  Everyone came to their senses and knelt on the ground in unison, begging Zhao Han to fulfill his promise of dividing the land.

  Zhao Han scolded: "Stand up, I don't like weak knees."

  Some people stood up, some people still knelt, they were all looking forward to Zhao Han, and all they could think about was dividing the land.

Zhao Han pointed to the open space in the courtyard: "There was no rule before. You kill people indiscriminately, and I can't punish you. Now make the first rule, hand over all the things you robbed, and put them there for me to deal with! Who dares to privately Hidden, if I find it, I won't give him any land!"

  Everyone was horrified and handed over their belongings one after another, fearing that Zhao Han would send someone to search him.

  Zhao Han said again: "Dashan, you count the number of tenants. Maosheng, you count the Huang family who are still alive."

  The two acted immediately, there were 103 tenants (including masons) and 18 surviving members of the Huang family (including maids and servants).

   There are several seriously injured people, life and death depend on God's will, and there is only one poor doctor in the town.

  Zhao Han announced: "I will share half of Huang Zundao's land property, and give priority to the ones you cultivate. After all, there are still crops you planted in the field."

  Suddenly, a tenant said: "Master Zhao, can we re-divide the land? My tenants are all Xia Tian."

   "Yes, my family's tenant's field is not good." Another tenant echoed.

  Zhao Han said: "If it is allocated to Xiatian, I will compensate you as appropriate, and give you more."

  Hearing this, no one has any more objections.

  Zhao Han continued: "Today's meritorious service, Chen Maosheng, Zhang Tieniu, Huang Yao, Huang Shun, Jiang Dashan, Jiang Liang, Liu Zhu. Each of you can get two more acres of land!"

   "Thank you, Mr. Zhao!" Huang Shun was overjoyed, and quickly knelt down.

  The rest of the recipients also knelt down.

  Jiang Liang and Liu Zhu are both people with foreign surnames who followed Jiang Dashan and crossed the river together to meet the masons.

  Zhao Han then announced that those who took the lead in submitting their certificates, including Huang Laoshi, would get an extra mu of land.

   Immediately, Zhao Han knelt down again, and Zhao Han didn't even bother to wake people up.

  The rest of the tenants were full of remorse, only hating themselves for being too stupid. If he had done business with Mr. Zhao earlier, wouldn't the family have an extra acre or two of land?

  Zhao Han said: "Tie Niu, Huang Yao, you bring some people to take over the shops in the town. Huang Zundao's shops are all mine now! There is no rush to divide the land, measure the land tomorrow, and register the register today."

  Zhang Tieniu and Huang Yao took orders to leave.

  Zhao Han asked Xiaohong and Xiaocui to appease the old and weak women and children, and at the same time screen out Huang Zundao's direct blood relatives and confidantes.

  Bringing pens, inks, papers and inkstones, Pang Chunlai, covered in mud, sat down to register the land dividers.

  Xiaohong and Xiaocui, the family can naturally divide the land.

   After the book was compiled, everyone was happy and their emotions were high.

Zhao Han said with a smile: "The Huang family still has two big households, one is Huang Erye and the other is Huang Uncle. If I go to the city to do business someday, these two people will spare you? Take it back, and follow me to kill again! Dare you?"

"dare!"

   "Follow Master Zhao!"

   "..."

  Everyone roared angrily.

  Zhao Han said: "You are not allowed to kill old and weak women...well, you don't kill old people, don't kill children, don't kill women. Anyone who dares to kill indiscriminately will have his fields taken back. Remember?"

   "Master Zhao, don't you kill the sons of the landlord's family? What should they do to get revenge when they grow up?" asked a tenant.

  Zhao Han replied: "Catch it first, and leave it to me!"

  Outside Huang Jiazu's house, many tenants have already surrounded, and they all rushed to join in after hearing the news.

  Zhao Han led people to kill Huang Erye's house, and those tenants took the initiative to follow, and gradually increased their staff along the way. When they arrived at the place, there were more than 200 people.

  The door of Huang Erye's house was closed, and someone was quietly sent to the county seat to report to the officials.

  Before Zhao Han gave the order, the tenants began to climb over the wall, and there was another burst of burning, killing and looting.

  The tenants who divided the fields did not mess around, but those who joined later did not care. Even on the way, Zhao Han repeatedly emphasized that those guys would still kill indiscriminately, for fear that there would be future troubles if they left the Huang family's scoundrels behind.

  In addition, there was Uncle Huang, who was robbed and killed by his own tenants without Zhao Han taking the lead.

  Three yellows in the town, all of them were wiped out.

  As for the tenants who participated in the robbery and killing, more than 60% also had the surname Huang, and they had the same ancestor hundreds of years ago.

   What's even weirder is that Zhao Han didn't do anything to Uncle Huang. But those tenants who initiated the incident, after robbing Uncle Huang, took the initiative to search for the land deeds and donate them to Zhao Han.

  They are afraid of trouble, afraid of being investigated by the government.

   Therefore, Master Zhao must stand up. Mr. Zhao ate meat, and the tenants voluntarily drank soup, and they would be slaves to Mr. Zhao from now on.

  Zhao Han was very speechless about this, and could only distribute the land to the tenants who followed up.

  But these tenants are given less land, which can be regarded as a disguised punishment, and those who are disobedient will be punished!

   "Master Zhao, there is also Master Li in the northwest, let's go grab the sub-field together!" Huang Shun happily ran over to make a suggestion, this guy has already tasted the sweetness of the sub-field.

  Zhao Han smiled and said, "No rush."

  The Li family is also the most common surname in the town, accounting for about 20% of the population. There was a Jinshi in the ancestors.

  However, the Li family's land is backed by mountains, so the location is not very good, and many properties are in mountainous areas. They occupy a large area of ​​mountains and forests. In addition to farming, they also burn charcoal and sell it to passing merchants.

   You can keep the Li family as a comparison, and let the farmers on your side see how happy they are.

  Happiness comes from comparison.

  However, Zhao Han's predictions were wrong. The news of Sanhuang's extermination spread to the northwest that afternoon.

  In the evening, countless tenants of the Li family spontaneously wiped out all of Mr. Li's families, brought the land deeds and offered them to Zhao Han, and asked Mr. Zhao to preside over the distribution of production and land.

  The leader was Li Zheng, a charcoal burner of the Li family, and the charcoal burner was also the main force in this riot.

   "Master Zhao, the land deeds are all here, and not a single mu of land has been moved," Li Zheng knelt and kowtowed, "Master Zhao, please uphold justice and distribute all the property to us poor people!"

   "Brother Li, please, I promise to be fair." Zhao Han could only accept it.

   Zhao Han was able to retain half of these properties, which meant that he became the biggest landlord in Huangjia Town.

   Take out half and distribute it to those who participated in the riot.

  The remaining half is owned by Zhao Han and can be rented to ordinary farmers. As long as he reduces rent and interest, he can gain the support of tenants, and he is a benevolent and kind master.

   I have to admit that Zhao Han has also tasted the sweetness, and is even a little addicted to it.

  However, Zhao Han quickly sobered up.

  These peasants voluntarily donate the land they plundered, just to let Zhao Han bear the pressure from the government.

   If you can't bear it, everything will stop.

  The land must be used as a link to integrate the farmers into a whole.

  Establish rules, gather people's hearts, organize ranks, and clarify rewards and punishments.

  What's the use of holding so much land by yourself?

  In the future, meritorious service will be rewarded. Those who make small achievements will be rewarded with money, and those who have made great achievements will be given land. It doesn't matter if you divide all your land.

   As long as external threats exist, these farmers are bound.

   Peasants who have divided their land will not easily compromise with the government.

   Moreover, if the incident in Huangjia Town spreads to the neighboring villages and towns, some people may take the opportunity to riot.

  The peasant uprising is like a virus, and it is terrible when it breaks out.

  Take southern Fujian as an example. The big landlord surnamed Shi exploited excessively, and the peasants on the outskirts of Fucheng could only endure it.

  In the early years of Chongzhen, suddenly there was a peasant uprising, hundreds of people rushed into the landlord's house, wiped out Master Shi's family and divided the land.

   When the news spread, it was like a spark starting a prairie fire.

  Nan'an, Anxi, Yongchun, Dehua, Changtai, Youxi, Datian, Yongfu, Minqing, Xianyou... Across prefectures and prefectures, riots took place one after another, occupying more than ten counties within ten months.

  Unfortunately, they were all self-initiated. The peasant army was scattered and wiped out by the official army within half a year.

  Cleaning and scrubbing the Huang family's ancestral house, Zhao Han lived in that night, and escorted Huang Sanshui to get Master Huang's money.

   (Thanks to the leaders of echoss, Longxiang Shengteng, Jiaojiaomingyuejianfeiyang, and Mr. Hello Fu. In addition, I found out that Dan Lingdi is the master of this book. Thank you His Majesty Lingdi for flipping the card.)
