Ming Dynasty: I, Emperor Chongzhen, swear not to go to Meishan

A large amount of land is in the hands of the powerful and wealthy landlords, which requires a large amount of labor to grow crops. These labors basically come from poor people who have to drag their children away from their homes due to natural disasters, wars and other reasons.

In order to survive, the desperate people either sold their children or their daughters, or had to sell themselves to the powerful, landlords and wealth. They were slaves for generations. They worked hard and earned only 10 to 20% of the harvest, barely surviving.

If Zhuang Nu's subordinates can get 30% of the output, then this powerful person or landlord can definitely be regarded as the number one good person in the world, allowing the people to set up longevity tablets and burn incense to worship.

Zhu Youjian now gave 40% of the output, which made everyone present couldn't believe it. They thought that their ears had heard wrongly, and subconsciously looked at the people around him with questioning eyes.

Forty percent, right? I must have heard wrong.

"You heard me right, I said, 40%, do you hear clearly?" Zhu Youjian said loudly, emphasizing again what he just said.

He gave Zhuang Nu's servants 40% of the output after careful consideration. The purpose was to stimulate their enthusiasm and work hard to open up wasteland and cultivate. Naturally, the output was greatly improved. In the end, the biggest beneficiary was himself.

This is just the first step in the reform of Huangzhuang. All the servants of the village are working hard to cultivate and cultivate the land. The more food they plant, the more income they will receive. With the surplus food, they naturally have to sell it for money to buy other daily necessities.

He will purchase the surplus grain from all the servants of the village at a price slightly lower than the market. In addition to normal consumption, the grain grown in the entire imperial village will be returned to his hands, and he will only pay a small amount of silver.

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live the emperor..."

After being stunned for a long time, all the servants of Zhuang Nu suddenly burst into loud cheers. They all cried with joy and involuntarily knelt down and kowtowed, thanking Long for his kindness.

Zhu Youjian smiled and looked at the servants of Zhuang Nu who were crying because they were too excited. After they vented the huge surprise in their hearts and gradually calmed down, they announced the subsequent reform measures.

In fact, it's not that complicated. It just copies some of the rural infrastructure plans, advanced planting and breeding technologies, etc. from the original time and space.

The infrastructure plan of Huangzhuang is nothing more than widening roads, establishing an advanced water supply and drainage system, and building large bathhouses, latrines, septic tanks, garbage areas, etc.

The advanced breeding technology is to engage in some three-dimensional breeding, dig ponds to raise fish, the pond water is used to irrigate farmland, build chicken coops and duck coops next to the ponds, build pig pens next to the ponds to raise pigs, and pig manure can be used to raise fish, and it can also be used as fertilizer to raise land. , green and environmentally friendly, with many benefits.

There are wells dug in the four imperial villages and hunting villages, and there are rivers passing around the villages. The water supply is very convenient. Zhu Youjian only needs to copy the water wheel from the original time and space to solve the water supply problem.

In order to build his own palace, he really racked his brains and used crazy equipment to build the ultimate waterwheel, a curved shaft plow, a lever crane that can lift heavy objects, flush toilets and other things. All "inventions and innovations" have come out.

Not only did he cheat like crazy, but he also invested a lot of money. The plowshares of the Quyuan plow were made of fine iron. He bought nearly 200 buffaloes for plowing the land and distributed them to the servants of the four imperial villages and hunting villages.

The hunting village was converted into a large chicken farm by Zhu Youjian. Fences and other fences were built around it, turning it into large chicken pens. The chickens are all free-range, which is not only green and environmentally friendly, but also tastes great.

In order to let the hens lay more eggs, Zhu Youjian also asked Zhuang Nu's servants to breed earthworms. In fact, raising them meant sprinkling some water every now and then to keep the soil moist, and throwing some rotten vegetable leaves and other garbage to the earthworms. Eat them and let them breed quickly.

The Hunting Village is different from the four Imperial Villages. It basically focuses on breeding, and there is also a reward and punishment system, but they are all based on the output quantity. In fact, there is no big difference.

"Best regards, Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live."

The entire imperial village was filled with joy, and the happiest ones were all the servants of the village, because they were the most direct and biggest beneficiaries of the emperor’s great changes. They were all moved to tears of joy and wished the emperor a long life from the bottom of their hearts. Live a hundred years and live as long as heaven.

Zhu Youjian smiled and nodded. He enjoyed this grand scene where all the people admired him very much. When he was about to leave the village, he suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but pause in his steps.

Well, I was so dizzy that I almost forgot an important thing.
