Tao Ran changed his name to Xue Ran, fabricated the identity of Xue Jin's sister, and came to the government with him and several others.
As refugees, the court had a policy of appeasement.
In order to prevent chaos, the imperial court encouraged the refugees to resettle on site and open up wasteland for naturalization.
The specific policy is that the reclaimed wasteland can be owned by the displaced people after one year of cultivation and will be tax-free for two years.
This policy is actually good, but if the local government is unwilling to advance a sum of funds to solve the immediate survival problems of the refugees, how many refugees will be able to sustain it until the food is mature? Therefore, although the policy is good, it is not easy to implement.
What Tao Ran needs to do now is to use this appeasement policy to obtain officially recognized land use rights. As long as she has official permission, she can start her activities openly...
When I entered the city and arrived at the government office, I found that it was still in chaos.
The fighting ability of this group of villagers in Liangshan Village is extraordinary, and when silver coins are involved, each one becomes more violent than the other.
Tao Ran's previous guess was very accurate.
The government did not dare to open a trial easily, so it could only dismiss both sides of the complaint in the name of investigation. This approach not only aroused dissatisfaction on both sides, but also intensified the people's accusations against the government's incompetence.
So at this time, most of the people in the government were outside the Yamen to appease and maintain order.
Tao Ran came so quickly not just to join in the fun.
Taking advantage of the chaos, she and Xue Jin found the government documents responsible for refugee affairs and easily obtained the approval documents for naturalization.
The government doesn't really care about the barren mountains and ridges, so it would be best if someone helps open up the wasteland.
According to regulations, one person can claim one acre of land on flat land, and the number can be expanded to two to three acres on mountainous land.
They stuffed ten copper coins into the scribe, and the scribe even skipped the on-site verification procedures. With a stroke of his pen, he registered the person's name and land area in the eucalyptus, and each person was counted three acres.
The ten of them successfully took over an entire mountain...
Tao Ran: "In two days, I will send some brothers to claim the barren mountain." Slowly "encroaching", soon they will be able to own a large sect territory openly and openly. Official certification, written in black and white.
After a year of living, the land will be privately owned by them. By then, no one can control what they use the land for...
There are advantages to being a refugee, such as Tao Ran, who now has an additional identity - Xue Ran.
Refugees come from all over the world, and it is impossible for the government to go to each place of original residence to compare and verify them. Basically, they have to report who they are.
Her name has been registered in the government household register. Her original household registration was written in another province hundreds of miles away with Xue Jin. This is the new identity recognized by the government. One day, even if the Qian family and the Li family question her, she
She is confident. Her identity has been verified! At this point, the name Li Jingui is completely separated from her.
Each of them also received a bag of seeds.
Xue Jin and the others opened the bag happily, but they all closed the bag with stiff expressions.
Tao Ran opened it and took a look.
She has never grown food, but it doesn't mean that she can't even distinguish the most basic good from bad.
The seeds given by the government were small, shriveled, and looked stale. They were obviously used to make up the money. Take them back and feed them to the chickens, and the chickens don’t even have to eat them.
She couldn't help but snorted.
She had been to the provincial capital yesterday.
The refugee policy was also posted on bulletin boards throughout the provincial capital, and she took a look at it.
In order to provide disaster relief and appease the refugees, the imperial court allocated charitable funds to local areas. According to regulations, local governments provided subsidies to encourage refugees to open up wasteland. In addition to receiving a sufficient amount of seeds, the refugees could also receive tools for clearing up wasteland.
But what about here?
I didn’t see the tools, and the seeds were just a make-up.
The key points among them are basically obvious.
The roots of the local government are obviously rotten, and they deserve to be roasted on the fire...
When Tao Ran and the others came out, what they saw was the angry villagers from Liangshan Village who threatened that they would have nowhere to sleep tonight and would sleep in front of the Yamen. When would the Yamen decide for them and when would they leave...
Tao Ran and the others did not continue to join in the fun.
Instead, they went to Qian's house.
Xue Jin, the concierge of the Qian family, helped Tao Ran deliver a letter.
This letter was sent to Qian Feng, the eldest son of the Qian family. It was written in the name of Qian Feng's fair-weather friend, Mr. He Sangong.
When the porter saw the messenger arriving in a carriage, he was very polite, knowing that he was either rich or noble. After taking a piece of broken silver from Xue Jin's hand, the porter warmly asked him to wait a moment, and trotted into the hospital to deliver the letter.
Tao Ran's letter was to invite Qian Feng in the name of He San to have fun tomorrow. They arranged to meet at Zuixian Tower first, and then at his new Jiangnan Dancer's house. He said that he had made ten jars of fine wine, and so on.
Qian Feng rested after getting drunk...
In Jin Gui's memory, Qian Feng liked good wine and beautiful women, so Tao Ran was confident in fishing him out.
Just imagine that the Qian family has been in constant trouble recently.
Qian Feng was painful and aggrieved. First he was grounded, then his yard was burned, his study was stolen, all his money was gone, his "wife" was burned to death, and his brother and fiancee betrayed him twice... The key is that he couldn't take revenge on any of them.
It's as frustrating as it is to be oppressed, and it's as painful as it is to suffer.
Tao Ran put it in, if she were Qian Feng, she would almost become the biggest laughing stock, and I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to stay in this family for a second.
You can go out to relax, and he will most likely not refuse.
Guessed it right.
Soon the concierge came out and said that the young master agreed and would go there on time tomorrow...
Tao Ran and the others then left and started purchasing supplies.
From various tools for building houses, to pots and pans, to grain, rice, oil and salt, cartloads of things were transported outside the city.
Naturally, Tao Ran paid for the whole process. But she spent it like this, and she hasn't used her banknotes yet.
However, such a generous move made everyone full of admiration and respect for the sect and her acting head.
In particular, Tao Ran ate and lived with them, did not dislike them, showed no dissatisfaction, and did not ask anyone to do anything for her. This made everyone admire her from the bottom of their hearts.
Life has started to move forward, and everyone begins to build a new home in full swing.
On this day, everyone did not want to stop their work until the sun went down. The young and strong felled trees and felled trees, the deft ones helped everyone sew clothes, the older ones cooked and boiled water for everyone, and the children also helped.
Do some chores...
They were all tired, but according to Xue Jin, he had never seen everyone laughing so happily...
After dark, Tao Ran came to the Taoist priest with a bowl of fragrant and hot chicken noodle soup.
The three Taoist priests, who had not eaten for a whole day and night, were already hungry. The smell made them salivate, and they all motioned to Tao Ran to take away the cloth from his mouth. If this continued, they would die of thirst even if they did not starve to death.
Tao Ran took a bite of noodles, but said calmly: "The Qian family pays more money than you. If your price cannot be increased, we will not have to negotiate."
The Taoist priest kept nodding his head.
Tao Ran took the cloth from his mouth and asked, "How much?"
Taoist priest: "How much does the Qian family pay?"
"Just tell me how much you can pay at most?"
"One thousand..." The Taoist priest saw Tao Ran's hand moving upwards and quickly changed his words: "Three hundred taels. One thousand, three hundred taels."
But Tao Ran still raised his hand.
In the end, the piece of cloth was still stuffed back into his mouth.
The Taoist priest's eyes were full of annoyance, but Tao Ran didn't look back. She had plenty of time, so she took her time.
When they are about to die of hunger and thirst, they will naturally add enough money to her.
