Jia Jing looked at everyone coldly and said: "Whoever thinks he is the son of my Jia family will honestly hand over all the redundant property in the family to me tomorrow! Starting from tomorrow, you must pay taxes

When you pay taxes, you should pay grain and grain!”

Everyone in the Jia family looked downcast. They lowered their heads in disgrace and dared not speak. To be honest, they really didn't want to pay! Not to mention whether they wanted to pay taxes or not, they just talked about paying taxes. With so much land, I don't know what's on it.

How many tenants are there, and how much tax do they have to pay on behalf of these tenants?

In fact, not everyone's land was taken by force, there were also tenants who took the initiative to join the landowners. Due to some historical reasons, everyone thought that the landlords were the kind who wore mustaches and melon-skin hats, and clapped their hands on a pipe.

There is a strange voice in the voice: "The landlord doesn't have any food left at home~"...

But in fact, not all landlords are bastards like Huang Shiren. There are also quite a number of landowners who are relatively kind-hearted. They are afraid that the farm laborers will cause trouble, so they feed the farm laborers meat and eat porridge for their whole family. They also participate in labor on weekdays, and even bring them with them during holidays.

There are also landlords whose families bring gifts and other things to express condolences to their tenants.

Educated and conscientious people, including small and middle-class landlords, are basically like this. After all, if we talk about it, the largest landlord in the world is the emperor, and the emperor also has the difference between a faint king and a wise king...

Therefore, a considerable number of people in the Jia family are actually not heinous people, and they have not occupied fertile land. Since most people in the family do not pay taxes and grains, they naturally will not be taken advantage of, and they will be offended if they do.

Not a human being?

Therefore, in this case, most tenant farmers will choose to be doomed to dependence, because families like them do not have to pay taxes on grain. If their land is in their name, they will naturally not have to pay taxes. This way, at the end of the year, their families will be able to get more grain.

Some.

At this time, many people will choose to do this. This is why I said before that when scholars like Fan Jin win the imperial examination, it is equivalent to achieving a class leap, even if they do not do anything, or even no longer serve as officials.

They can ensure that they have no worries about food and clothing, and even have good food and clothing.

The reason is that the reputation and prestige are not only due to the imperial court's welfare policies, but the regular distribution of rice silver is only a small part of it. The real big part is the exchange of favors and the support of local tenants.

Because the most useful and attractive benefits provided by the imperial court to Ju Ren were that Ju Ren could not pay taxes and be exempted from corvee labor. Because of this, most tenants would choose to put their land in Ju Ren’s name, and Ju Ren could

Gather a large piece of real estate and become a landowner.

The Jia family relied on their status as a meritorious family, so they had not paid taxes for so many years. When Ning Rong was there, no one was familiar with them. Later, everyone basically became accustomed to it.

But now the imperial court is carrying out New Deal reforms. The most important purpose of the reforms is to enrich the people and strengthen the country. How can it be possible to allow a large group of people to continue to occupy the fields without paying grain or taxes?

How many people are there in the world? Moreover, they are scholars themselves and know how difficult it is to be a scholar. Therefore, the cake of the gentry cannot be touched for the time being, at least on the premise of quickly enriching the national treasury. The gentry class cannot be touched, so naturally they have to pick people like Jia Jia.

Such a meritorious family is in trouble!

Jia Jing himself is self-aware, so he sold a large amount of Zhuangzi's fertile land a long time ago. He doesn't have many fields under his name now, and he has been paying taxes honestly. Even as Jia Jing, he is completely tax-free.

.

But Nanzong has always occupied a large area of ​​fertile land without paying taxes or food. It was fine in the past, but now it is in the limelight, aren't you just a thorn in the flesh?

Nanzong is totally fine with Jia Jing being willing to commit suicide, but if Nanzong wants to drag Beizong along with him to finish off Jia Jing, he won't agree!

If something really happens, people won't care whether your Jia family is divided into the southern sect or the northern sect. Anyway, they are all the same Jia. As long as they can kill you Jia Jing, what's the difference between the southern sect and the northern sect?

Therefore, Jia Jing will never miss such an important omission. He specially went through Jinling to deal with the people of Nanzong! Those who break the law and commit crimes should be sent to the government. Jia Jing wants to clearly draw a clear line with Nanzong.

!Take a stand!

But similarly, for some people in the Jia Jia Nan clan, they just manage their own land honestly, and everything is done according to the same rules as other people in the clan. They are suddenly kicked out of the Jia family for no reason.

, you can’t enter your own ancestral hall from now on?

Although Jia Jing broke with the Southern Sect in the name of the Northern Sect, he is still the same ancestor of the Northern and Southern Sects. Everyone's ancestral halls are in Ningguo Mansion, and the spiritual tablets of their ancestors are also there. You just don't allow people to enter your ancestral hall anymore.

It’s so unkind...

That's why Jia Jing raised this point, voluntarily gave up the fields that did not belong to her, and paid taxes on time from now on. Then we are still a family. If we dare to say even half a word... Haha!

Jia Ding, who had just been watching obediently and witnessed the uncles and elders whom he had just called Huan being pulled down, beaten severely and thrown out of the house, swallowed his saliva and felt extremely uncomfortable!

In the end, after fighting for a long time in my heart, I managed to stand up and said with a bitter smile: "Brother Jing... Ninghou, you don't know how difficult it is for our family here. Everyone's life is like digging into the ground."

Food, if we really pay taxes on time as you said, we will have to lose so much that we will be caught! Besides..."

Jia Ding whispered: "We are all after all, after all, we have made meritorious deeds. Our ancestors have shed blood for him, Li Yan. What's wrong with us occupying some land? Zhong Zihui is deliberately sowing discord. If Ninghou, you are really called

If we do this, aren’t you surrendering to him..."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Jia Jing gave him a cold look, and Jia Jing immediately stopped talking. Jia Jing suddenly shouted sharply: "Left and right! Fork out!"

Jia Ding was stunned. Just as he was about to say something, two soldiers stepped forward and punched him to the ground. Then they stepped forward to hold him up, covered his face and shouted: "Ninghou, I only want to do this for you."

Hello! Ninghou!" Jia Ding walked out.

Jia Jing said coldly: "What Li Yan? That's what you can say? What Zhong Zihui, you are a commoner, you are worthy of calling Mr. Zhong a cousin? Our ancestors shed blood and made meritorious deeds for Dayan, that's

Our ancestors’ business! It’s none of your business!”

Jia Jing stood up and shouted angrily: "In front of so many ancestors, every one of you with the surname Jia here, apart from me and the Beizong brothers among the soldiers, who has shed a drop of blood for Dayan? Who? Stand.

Come out! I will apologize to you immediately! No words!"

Everyone in the Jia family was silent and lowered their heads. Jia Jing tied the jade belt around her waist and glanced at everyone. After a long time, she said in a deep voice: "There is no room for relaxation in this matter! If any of you think you are my Jia family, just listen

I am the leader of the clan! If anyone thinks that our north and south clans are divided and you are no longer under my control! Then I will ask you to leave the Jia family!"

Jia Jing said in a deep voice: "Today this matter must be resolved! And I will not say another word! Nor will I listen to any suggestions from you! There are only two ways! Those who consider themselves to be descendants of the Jia family, stay!

For those who think they are not descendants of my Jia family, the memorial tablet of Erzu is here and the gate is behind! Leave my Ningrong Jia family ancestral hall!"

As she spoke, Jia Jing pointed to the incense burner behind her and said, "I have said nothing, but this half of the incense is enough for you to leave here! After you think about it carefully, you can make a choice!"

As Jia Jing spoke, she sat back and closed her eyes, obviously not wanting to say anything anymore. Everyone in the Jia family looked at each other for a long time, and one person seemed to hesitate for a long time before taking the first step...

Then he looked at Jia Jing's soldiers in horror. When he found that they were looking straight ahead with expressionless faces and no movement, he breathed a sigh of relief, then cautiously stepped forward and kowtowed twice in front of Jia Jing.

: "The unfilial grandson asks the ancestor's spirit to go home!"

Then without daring to say anything, he got up and found the memorial tablet of his ancestors. He hurriedly wrapped it in his arms and looked around at the soldiers like a thief, then hurriedly walked out of the Jia Family Ancestral Hall...

From beginning to end, Jia Jing never said a word with her eyes closed!

Some people started talking and were not retaliated against, and some people's thoughts became alive. They gritted their teeth and stamped their feet. They really couldn't resist the temptation of not paying food or paying taxes. Besides, it was really hard to give up so much fertile land at home to others.

There are some...

So some people gritted their teeth and walked out. Some of them stayed in the same place and wanted to hold on to their sweethearts. Who knew that they really didn't want to "suffer" like this, so they shook their heads, sighed, shook off their hands and left in a hurry.

.

"Brother Fu! You, how could you..."

"Oh! Everyone in the family also needs to eat! If I have to do this, will I die of poverty?"

"Great grandpa! Don't blame my great-grandson for my incompetence and unfilial piety! They don't want us anymore! It's better for us to make a clear distinction between us! Let's go home!"

"Hmph! This is the first time I see someone who doesn't talk to his own family, but instead talks to outsiders and some bullshit adult... and just walks away!"

"It's okay to divide it! It's okay to divide it! It should have been divided long ago!"

In the end, there was not even time for an inch of incense, and almost half of the people in the Jia family ancestral hall left! Only the smaller half of the people stood there with complicated expressions, all of them were silent and lowered their heads. Jia Daiyuan and others

Several older people were beating their chests and looking very painful.

Although the ancestral hall returned to deathly silence, Jia Jing still closed her eyes. After half the stick of incense was burned, Qingfeng stepped forward and said softly to Jia Jing: "Master Hou, the time has come."

Jia Jing then slowly opened her eyes, raised her head and scanned the people still present. Jia Jing nodded slightly with satisfaction. His original expectation was that there might be only three or two kittens left.

wrong…………

Jia Jing then looked solemn, stood up, straightened her clothes and hair, then stepped forward a few steps and respectfully bowed to the people who were still there with the courtesy of a junior: "Ningrong Jia's family, the four

Grandson Jia Jing, I have met all of you uncles and brothers!"

Everyone in the Jia family was refreshed, knowing that Jia Jing had clearly stated that they were relatives at this time, and came to place the display as Jia Jing of the Jia family! Then everyone took the initiative to step forward one by one, either hand over, or

He nodded and said: "Ningrong Jia's family, Jia Gan."

"Ningrong Jia's family, Jia Jue, have met the second brother!"

"Ningrong Jia's family, Jia Yue, have met the second brother!"

"Ningrong Jia's family, Jia Kui, have met the second uncle!"

"Ningrong Jia's family, Jia Lian..."

Jia Jing met the remaining people one by one, then stepped forward and bowed to several old men and said: "Jia Jing has just returned home. He was ordered by Your Majesty. He was busy with official duties and set off in a hurry. In his haste, he did not have time to prepare any gifts for you.

I hope you will forgive me."

Jia Daiyuan shook his head, wiped his tears and sighed: "It will be good to come back, it will be good to come back..."

Jia Jing pursed her lips and said to Jia Daiyuan: "Master, there is no need to be so sad. The old ones won't go and the new ones won't come. This is the path they chose. No matter how good the brothers are, there will be times when their families separate.

If the water does not interfere with the river, we will just stop interacting with each other!"

Jia Daiyuan sighed helplessly and said: "We all know what you mean, brother Jing, and we also know that you are doing it for the good of the Jia family, but... Alas! After all, the ancestors have passed it down to such a large family, and here we are,

But you have to..."

After speaking, several old men shed tears again. Jia Jing was silent for a moment, and then said: "This is their own choice. I did not force them to do anything. Besides, this may not be a good thing."

Jia Jing raised her head and looked at the crowd as she spoke: "You should also know what those undefeated families in ancient history have done for thousands of years. Eggs can never be put in the same basket. Sometimes, if you divide the clan, maybe you can

It’s the key to the continuation of the family!”
