Zhu Yunxi was entrenched in Jinan Prefecture like a huge spider. Through the Jinyi Guards and Xingwu Guards, he formed spider threads to control all the prefectures and counties in Shandong Province.

Whenever he issues an order, it can be expedited over eight hundred miles and delivered to every place as quickly as possible.

For special places such as Prince Qi's Mansion, Prince Lu's Mansion, and Duke Yansheng's Mansion, there are dedicated personnel to ensure that the information is conveyed word for word.

After placing the property in the names of tenants in Prince Qi's Mansion and Prince Lu's Mansion, Zhu Yunxi immediately issued a new edict - buy land!

As soon as this news came out, the entire Shandong area was in an uproar.

Everyone thought that Zhu Yunxi introduced a series of measures to restrict land annexation. But who would have thought that the dragon slayer would eventually become a dragon, and his final goal was to buy land!

However, this has made many large landowners feel much more relaxed.

It is best for the emperor's grandson to be selfish. If he is as selfless as the old emperor, then life will be a sad one.

After Gao Ming learned about Zhu Yunxi's new order, he didn't understand it very much. He even had a big quarrel with Zhu Yunxi, thinking that he had misjudged the person.

Zhu Yunxi didn't bother to explain to Old Man Gao, and still went his own way and asked Jin Yiwei to rush to various places to collect land.

For ordinary farmers, they pay taxes to whomever they pay, and they don’t have that much sense of patriotism.

Relatively speaking, being a tenant to the emperor's grandson is definitely the best solution.

What's more, the emperor's grandson really paid for the land!

Although the land price is a bit low, it is still better than being snatched away by the royal family and wealthy gentry for nothing, right?

Moreover, the people in Jinyiwei are very loyal. If you have sold your land at a low price before, as long as you have the contract and certificate, they will come to ask for it for you. Not only will they redeem it for you at a low price, but they will also allow you to continue selling it to the emperor's grandson.

As a result, all the farmers sold their land to the emperor's grandson and became glorious tenants.

However, the main reason why they are so flocked to him is that the conditions offered by the emperor's grandson are really too good.

When renting land from the emperor's grandson, no exorbitant taxes and fees are required, and only 20% of the land rent is collected every year.

Although the land rent is much higher than that of the imperial dynasty, it has a lot less exorbitant taxes and poll taxes.

The emperor's grandson said that no matter how many Dingkou there are in the family, taxes will only be collected based on the amount of land rented, and no other money will be charged!

With such preferential policies, the common people no longer thought about being farmers, and all went to work as tenants for the emperor's grandson.

Moreover, the most reassuring thing for them was that the Emperor Taisun said in black and white that as long as a farmer wants to redeem his land, no matter how many years have passed, he can redeem the land from him at the original price and continue to be his own farmer.

!

No interest!

This was extremely good news. As soon as the news came out, the whole of Shandong was in a state of excitement. All those who had land under their names took their vouchers and went to the offices of the Emperor Taisun in various places to deal with land sales.

What's more, some came over with the land of King Qi and King Lu to "offer it".

If it were someone else who would take over the land, they would definitely not dare to appropriate the "royal" property and take the royal property as their own.

However, the emperor's grandson is different.

No matter how awesome the vassal king is, he is still a king, but the emperor's grandson will be the emperor in the future, and he will be in charge of these shameless princes.

Wang Dali's family also happily sold their three acres of paddy field to the emperor's grandson, and then rented 30 acres of land from the emperor's grandson, planning to do something big in the coming year!

But that's not all, seeds, farm tools and other things can also be purchased with low-interest loans from the emperor's grandson!

Wang Dali purchased a complete set of Minggang brand farm tools in one fell swoop. When he carried the new farm tools home, he carefully tore off the oil paper on them, and when he saw the shiny black farm tools and the sharp steel mouth, he felt like a shovel.

With it in my hand, I feel a surge of excitement in the world.

Some are happy and some are sad. Princess Wu of Qi and Princess Ge of Lu have fainted on the bedside crying.

"fraud!"

"Big liar!"

"How can anyone bully orphans and widowed mothers like this? I want to go to Beijing to file a complaint, eh eh eh eh..."

Princess Qi also hurriedly ordered her younger brother to write a letter to King Qi, asking King Qi to present to His Majesty in the capital and cry out for the injustice she had suffered.

Relatively speaking, Yan Shenggong's mansion was relatively peaceful. Their family never believed in Zhu Yunxi's evil deeds from the beginning. In addition, their family adopted the donation system. The land deeds were originally in the hands of the farmers, but they were only passed by the government.

Once the household is settled under the name of their Duke Yan Sheng's Mansion, one can escape some corvées and the like.

Therefore, Zhu Yunxi's troubles had relatively little impact on their family.

However, as Zhu Yunxi took more and more subsequent actions, the farmers who had previously taken refuge in Yanshengong's Mansion turned to embrace the emperor's grandson's lap, causing the financial resources of Yanshengong's Mansion to shrink sharply.

However, there was nothing they could do about shrinking, they could only watch helplessly.

After all, Prince Qi’s Mansion and Prince Lu’s Mansion didn’t do anything, so what could they, Duke Yan Sheng, do?

But Duke Yansheng's Mansion still informed Duke Yansheng Kongne in the capital about the injustice his family had suffered.

Kong Na saw his brothers in the family crying and crying. He was heartbroken and had runny noses and tears.

After learning that his grandson Kong Yanli was running to the palace every day to work for Zhu Yunxi, the grandson of Wenhua Hall, the old man was so angry that he ordered someone to tie him up and lock him in the house without letting him go anywhere.

He finally figured it out, the emperor's grandson had no good intentions!

According to the tossing method of the emperor's grandson, the Ming Dynasty would have to die like the Qin Dynasty!

Kong Na, the head of the civil service, had such an attitude, and the Shandong officials in the capital were even more furious.

They wrote letters one after another, impeaching the emperor's grandson for occupying people's fields, forcing people to sell their land, and buying farm tools, seeds, etc. from the workshops under the emperor's grandson's name, causing great disasters to the people of Shandong.

The princes also united and rushed into the palace to cry to Lao Zhu.

"Father, my sons and ministers can't survive!"

"Your eldest grandson has defrauded us of all the belongings we have worked so hard to buy. How will we live in the future? Woohoo..."

Compared with the cries of ordinary vassal kings, King Qin Zhu Zhen was the most unique, and he directly entered the palace carrying the golden book of family trees.

Zhu Xi threw the golden book to the ground and pointed at it.

"Father, I don't want this thing anymore, and I will give it back to you now!"

"You will most likely not be able to use the characters that you have worked so hard to arrange for King Qin. When my son returns to Xi'an, he will call all the little ones in the family over and bleed them one by one!"

When Lao Zhu heard this, he immediately became angry, stepped down the steps, and kicked Zhu Ping out.

"Asshole!"

"Zhu Yunxi is regulating the land of Shandong. What does it have to do with Xi'an?"

"You want to kill your wife and children?"

"Now you carry a knife and kill us first before we talk!"

Seeing that his father was angry, Zhu Xi fell to his knees with a plop, hugged his father's thigh and cried.

"Father, my son didn't mean to make you angry, it's really your grandson who is too shameless!"

"You have left the Ming Dynasty to him, why is he still fighting for a third of an acre of land from us?"

"The land in Shandong has become his. Let the sons of Lao Qi and Lao Shi eat and drink whatever they want from now on, woo woo woo..."

King Qi, who was kneeling on the ground sadly, heard his second brother mentioning him and quickly climbed up to Lao Zhu and kowtowed.

"Father, you must make the decision for your son. My son has been in Shandong for so many years and managed to buy some property, but Zhu Yunxi deceived all of it!"

"He first said he would tax everyone. As soon as my land was put in the names of tenants, he forcibly bought it from those unruly people!"

"What those unscrupulous people are selling is my family's land. It's the land that my son keeps to support your grandson and great-grandson. Woo hoo hoo..."

When Zhu Cang and Zhu Su cried, all the vassal kings in the entire hall also cried, and even the thirteenth old Zhu Gui pretended to wipe his tears.

In fact, Zhu Gui looked down on the small amount of land rent. In addition, he had not yet become a vassal, so he had no land to his name.

But relying on the dividends from the Ming Steel Chamber of Commerce and Jinling Coal Industry, he has an income of 200,000 taels of silver every year, which is enough for him to support his family.

What's more, he also has shares in Sanwei Bookstore. It is said that there is a lot of revenue there every year, which is higher than the previous two items.

Therefore, he can now be regarded as a small rich man among the Ming Dynasty vassal kings, and he is still the kind of person who is inconspicuous.

But since you become the feudal king, you must maintain consistency with the feudal king.

Although there are some benefits that he can’t use, he can’t help but fight for them!

Listening to the cries that filled the room, Lao Zhu became irritable for a while and even felt a lot of resentment towards his eldest grandson.

This grandson can't wait for a few more years, and he has to act in such a hurry?

In fact, Lao Zhu knew what Ni Sun An was thinking since he learned about Ni Sun's political orders in Shandong.

Isn't it just sharing the land and a whip?

It's just that the imperial court was replaced by the emperor's grandson, and the rest is just a change of soup without changing the medicine.

From the bottom of my heart, Lao Zhu is very supportive of Da Sun.

Because once these vassal kings are allowed to mess around, and the local squires and officials are allowed to mess around, the Ming Dynasty's source of finance and taxation will inevitably dry up.

Only more and more self-cultivating farmers can ensure the Ming Dynasty's tax sources and the orderly operation of the Ming Dynasty.

However, these feudal kings in front of us are also our own kind, so we have to find a way out for them.

"You go back first, we will definitely teach that nun grandson a lesson and give you an explanation!"
