Feiqian went to the southern city of Yinshan and stood in the government office's study room, looking at a room full of files. These files were the Yinshan household registrations that had been added one after another during this period.
In the Han Dynasty, local officials had a very important performance evaluation criterion, which was taxation, and the source of taxation was the household registration file of this house.
Household compilation is carried out on the grounds of bringing together the people. Households are compiled to bring together the people. The numbering comes first, and the number comes after. Once the number is set, what about the number?
These four words of innovation of Chinese people really have a long lasting charm.
If elsewhere, the people who are registered in the household registration mainly include four categories of people, mainly landlords, farmers, servants, and farm laborers, but here in Yinshan, it is somewhat different. The largest landowner is Fei Qian, and then various small ones.
The military class, as for the nobility, has long been gone. The peasant class can only be said to be half of it. After all, most of them have just transferred from refugees or Montenegrins, and many of them have to farm for five years or more.
After a longer period of time, you can be granted land, and you can truly be considered a self-cultivator.
There are basically no domestic servants or farmhands.
Although there is a military class, most of these people do not hire workers. They have many soldiers, and the private soldiers they raise are the best hirers.
The household registration system started in the pre-Qin Dynasty and has continued through later generations. The main reason is that it is the most convenient for administrative management and tax collection. Registering households to equalize the people is both an administrative system and a tax system. According to the most basic tax system in the Han Dynasty,
In addition to the ordinary land rent of thirty to one tax, there was also poll tax, which was calculated tax and oral tax; plus corvee and military service.
Of course, most of the people here in Yinshan are farmers, so the land rent is relatively high, but there is less military service and corvee labor, because these labor services are basically replaced by Xianbei slaves. These farmers only need to help out on the grassland in their free time.
If you pay some green pennies for reserve, it will be offset.
Is this considered benevolent government?
That's right.
The positions are just different.
Fei Qian picked up one of the volumes and opened it. He saw a piece of wooden slip which read, "The head of the household, Liu's name is Chang Ren, and he lives fifteen miles south of Yinshan Mountain. Liujiazhai is forty years old, and there are two wives and one man named Zeng.
Two women gave birth to one child, one person gave birth to three acres of homestead, and one oxen plowed fifty acres." The upright Han officials said this in one breath from top to bottom.
Well, there is no punctuation.
Therefore, the administrative power of interpretation in ancient times belonged to the government.
This is just the beginning, and the household registration is a little rough. If the household registration is based on the standards of the Han Dynasty, not only must these basic information be recorded, but also the origin of the head of the household and his family must be recorded. Even the physical health status and personal appearance must be recorded.
Features and more...
These were formulated by Xiao He, the founding prime minister of the Han Dynasty, and a special "Nine Chapter Code" was issued. The "household code" was used to stipulate detailed household registration management methods. Subsequently, each dynasty spared no effort to add to the household registration system.
…
In the Sui and Tang Dynasties, in order to prevent households from fleeing, the rulers continued to implement the "Three Chiefs System" in the Northern Wei Dynasty, strengthened grassroots management, rectified the household establishment, and used the "Three Chiefs" as a grassroots organization to implement "Da Suo Mao Yue"
.
By the time of the Tang Dynasty, the household registration management was quite complete. The "group appearance" and "registration registration setting" were implemented. Accounts were made once a year and household registration was made every three years. The management was relatively rigorous.
The household registration system was continuously developed and improved during the Song Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty implemented the household registration system. In order to prevent counterfeiting and forgery, each household registration is numbered and stamped with the official seal in duplicate. One copy is given to the people to keep.
One copy was handed over to the Ministry of Household Affairs. The Ming government also made up yellow books based on the Lijia system.
Qing Dynasty, a little bit...
Should we activate the police system?
Fei Qian frowned, looked at the household registration, and pondered. Speaking of which, "I, the Qing Dynasty," did not make any contribution to the household registration, so there would definitely be some old people and young people who were anxious to jump to their feet. At least the police system was at the end of the Qing Dynasty.
It has been initially established. Of course, there may be a premise added, which is forced.
Fei Qian had some impression of the image of the black-skinned dog in those TV series and movies from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China...
Before the police system, the people who managed household registration were the villagers at the grassroots level, the Sanlao, the Baojia, and the government offices. But after the police system, it was the police station. The police replaced the government officials and became the grassroots household registration management and criminal and civil handling personnel. The police
The advantage of the system is that it strips away part of the clan's power to rule the clan members, but the police system also has higher requirements for grassroots personnel. Now, it is still a bit difficult to implement it.
Now the urban inspection system has been basically established, and the police system and the inspection system work together to separate most of the legislative and law enforcement powers from the clans. At the same time, it can also absorb the aging of the army and the disabled soldiers.
It is a direction worth trying.
Now I still have to put it away first, after all, I still need to reserve manpower for a while...
It's just that someone traveled to the Three Kingdoms and did things like stabbing people, either stabbing women or men. So when he came to the Three Kingdoms, he not only engaged in urban management, but also engaged in police affairs. This is really...
Fei Qian silently closed the household registration file and put it down, then adjusted his emotions, nodded with a smile, and praised Ma Yue for his work achievements over the past period of time.
I can't get that big tooth back.
Seeing Ma Yue's excitement, Zhao Yun stood behind Fei Qian and remained silent.
Huang Xu turned his head slightly and glanced at Zhao Yun without saying anything. After all, Huang Xu only cared about Fei Qian's safety, but what Zhao Yun was thinking about. As long as he didn't hinder or threaten Fei Qian, Huang Xu would pretend he didn't see it.
Zhao Yun was actually here, but he was a little distracted. He frowned slightly, thinking about the problem in his mind.
It has been a few days since General Fei Qian came to Yinshan. He first looked at the Yinshan camp, no, now also the construction of Yinshan City. Then he checked the progress and effectiveness of Zhang Lie's cavalry training, and now he looked at the household registration.
It seemed that Yu Fu Luo was completely forgotten, as if he had completely forgotten about it.
Zhao Yun glanced at Fei Qian's back. Did General Zhengxi Fei sneak to Yinshan just to patrol the border? Obviously not, but why do you think General Zhengxi was not in a hurry at all?
Also, before he went to Baishi Qiang to buy salt, how could General Zhengxi know that Baishi Qiang’s people would come to inquire about the situation, and how could he conclude that Gao Nu’s people would know the news? Then Gao Nu’s people would definitely push Yinshan Has Yu Fuluo’s attitude changed here?
If the question marks in his mind could be seen, there must be a lot of question marks jingling on Zhao Yun's head. However, Zhao Yun has a dull and steady personality, so although there are so many questions spinning in his mind, there are also Holding back my temper, silently observing, waiting...
For Fei Qian, the issues that Zhao Yun is considering at the moment are not too big. After all, Bai Shiqiang is not good, and there are Gong Jun and others, right? It's just that the wind blows from north to south, or It's just blowing from south to north. Now, the question in Fei Qian's mind is how big this storm will become and how to deal with it.
Fei Qian clasped his hands behind his back, looking at the clouds rolling in the sky over Yinshan Mountain, listening to Ma Yue telling some interesting stories about Yinshan Mountain during these times, nodding his head from time to time, as if he was listening attentively, but in fact he was also distracted.
Do you want to learn from Senior Brother Cao?
This is a problem.
…………………………
"Atonement? Well, maybe it's a way..."
Yu Fuluo thought about it. Speaking of it, Yu Fuluo was not a decisive and decisive tycoon. Even the tyrant was an unmatched Xiong. He was barely qualified. Although he said that he wanted to learn from King Maodun and revitalize the Xiongnu. , but like some people, they are only giants when they spit.
Mao Dun was so ruthless that he not only killed his younger brother, but also his mother.
You can't learn from Fu Luo.
Although Yu Fulo had been somewhat wary of Hu Chuquan before, after seeing Hu Chuquan's unlucky appearance, he didn't know why he remembered the happy time when the two were friendly to each other when they were children. When he thought of his father's death, he just remembered it. Huchuquan was the only relative left, and with the persuasion of some elders in the tribe, there was no way he could be ruthless.
But Yu Fuluo also didn't dare to let Huchuquan go.
The Yinshan Walled City of General Zhengxi is nearby. All day long, the captain named Zhang roared past the grassland with new soldiers and veterans. The growth of the strength of the Han people on horseback can be seen every day. If they offend General Zhengxi is also in trouble.
Han people...
Why is the population of the Han people so large? They are like wild rabbits on the grassland, nesting one after another, and another nest after another...
"Great Chanyu, the man from the north wants to see you..." said the guard outside the king's tent.
"Oh, let him come in..." Yu Fuluo said, putting away his somewhat divergent thoughts.
"Dear Chanyu, I wonder how we have considered Shiwei's suggestions?" Xianbei envoy Tuoba Xinjin interrupted Yu Fuluo's thoughts. The weather in the north is getting colder, and Xianbei in the north is forced to go to Migrating south, but their migration was blocked by the Yinshan Walled City of General Fei Qian of the Western Expedition, so he could only bypass the Yinshan White Road and take the mountain pass on the west side of Yinshan to find Yu Fuluo.
Therefore, Tuoba Xinjin is not very polite, or he doesn't quite understand what politeness means. The Xianbei people who live in the desert of the north are strong and upright, with some blood mixed with the color-eyed people, and their hair is a little yellow and curly. , like a big brown bear.
Tuoba Xinjin opened his mouth and punched Yu Fulo into the corner. Yu Fulo's face was inevitably a bit ugly.
Suggestions? What innovative suggestions can the Xianbei people have? It’s not the same old thing, start an army together and then divide the acquired population, property and land equally...
Can you give me some creativity?
Although Yu Fuluo didn't know what the so-called creativity was, he was not very interested in the terms proposed by the Xianbei people. Looking at Tuoba Xinjin, his heart suddenly jumped, and he quickly lowered his head and coughed twice to cover up the irritation in his eyes. The fierce light.
I wonder if I can get a good price by selling this Xianbei envoy?
After all, we need to atone for our sins. Maybe we can also reduce some property losses or something?
Yu Fuluo put on a smiling face and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry...this matter involves many things and should always be discussed. It won't be too late to relax for a few days..."
Tuoba Xinjin frowned, hesitated for a moment, and wanted to say something, but was blocked by Yu Fuluo's loud instructions to serve wine and meat. Then after smelling the aroma of wine and meat, Tuoba Xinjin was a little embarrassed. Ba Xinjin also forgot what he wanted to say before. Just think about it more. If not, just wait another day?
Yu Fuluo cheerfully sang a song to persuade him to drink, and invited Tuoba Xinjin with kumiss. He ate this and drank that, and he became fat and white, so he was well-known!
Halfway through eating and drinking, Yu Fuluo wiped his oily hands on his robe, then stood up and left the tent. The alcohol content of the kumis was not high, but his bladder couldn't bear it after drinking too much, so he always had to relax.
But as soon as Yu Fuluo found a place behind the big tent and was reaching into his leather robe to dig out, he turned around and saw the elders of the clan running over, and was stopped by the guards. , but he didn’t leave, just stared at Yu Fuluo in the distance with his dead eyes.
"..." Yu Fuluo muttered a few words in a low voice, submerged in the sound of gurgling water.
The Xiongnu did not have a highly centralized political structure, but a tribal alliance system. The chief elder was the leader of another larger tribe. He nominally obeyed the chanyu's deployment, but he also had full administrative power within his tribe.
This time, the main person who opposed Yu Fuluo's killing of Huchuquan was the great elder. Of course, the others were not qualified to discuss politics.
The great elder's intention is definitely not to cure diseases and save people, or to give him a chance to make mistakes, but because he has his own considerations.
For a loose alliance system like the Xiongnu, the greater the authority of the Chanyu, the smaller the authority of the chief elder. At this point, it is better for Huchuquan to be alive than dead, because according to the practice of the Xiongnu, Huchuquan Chuquan is qualified to inherit Shanyu's position, so if Yufuluo goes too far, Huchuquan can be used to replace Yufuluo, thus achieving a smooth transition of power.
As long as Huchuquan is alive, he can control Fuluo, and for the great elder, Huchuquan has another advantage that Yufuluo does not have. Huchuquan is not biased towards Han people, at least not like Yu Fuluo. What Han Chinese scriptures are you looking at...
Of course, this was the judgment of the great elder at the beginning, so the great elder strongly opposed killing Hu Chuquan from the beginning.
However, things are always changing, just like the wind on the grassland, who knows when it will blow the urine back and wet the feet...
Yu Fuluo trembled for a few times, then put down his leather robe, walked over slowly, and said with a smile: "Great Elder, what kind of wind has brought you here..."
"My Chanyu..." the great elder stroked his chest and bowed and said, "I heard that the great Chanyu is going to do what he wants to do with the Han people in accordance with the rules of the Han people... to atone for his sins? To atone for the sin of Huchuquan?"
Yu Fuluo frowned and said, "Who did you listen to?"
"We cannot atone for our sins!" the great elder said categorically, "We Huns have our own Huns' laws, so why should we listen to the rules of the Han people? This time we are allowed to atone for our sins, and next time we will have to collect money and taxes on us. ! The Han people’s rules, hum, the Han people’s bullshit rules! The scattered small tribes in the south have to pay the Han people some tax every year, and their livestock must be taxed one-twenty! Do you know, the Great Chanyu?”
"I know..." Yu Fuluo was a little disapproving and said, "That's a matter of the Qiang people, what does it have to do with us? And it seems that the Qiang people don't have any objections. Why, does the elder have any dealings with the Qiang people? "
"Last time it was the Qiang people, this time it will be us Huns!" the great elder said as if he was prescient.
"Don't discuss the sins with the Han people?" Yu Fuluo frowned and glanced at the tent subconsciously. He originally wanted to use the Xianbei people to offset part of his sins.
The eldest elder, who was old and mature, followed Yu Fuluo's gaze and suddenly smiled: "It seems that Shan Yu has already made arrangements... He is indeed the son of Qiang Qu. Okay, this method is good! I think this can be done! If the Han people If you don’t agree to revoke King Youxian’s crime, then we will join forces with Xianbei to attack!” In the heart of the elder, when he conquered the Yinshan Mountains in the west, his achievements were at least half of those of the Xiongnu. Now that he has turned his back and disowned them, it is extremely abominable. Thinking about how to collect livestock tax to get more and more money, it is simply unbearable.
"Uh... this..." Yu Fuluo nodded at first, but when he heard the second half, he realized something was wrong, but he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Are you saying that the Han people are no longer what they used to be?
Are you saying that the Huns now mainly need to recuperate?
Finally, Yu Fuluo's eyes flashed a few times and said: "This... I will consider it..."
