After daybreak, when Yun Ye rode out of the city gate, there were many people gathered at the city gate. Not to mention the carriages and horses, even a horse could not squeeze through. Didn't it mean that the population of the Tang Dynasty was declining? This large area of darkness was full of people.
What is it?
When the Tang Dynasty's military force threatened the whole world, even the frontier fortresses were as safe as the inland areas. Ten acres of wasteland in exchange for a hundred acres of fertile farmland was a good thing that fell from the sky. Not to mention the new initiative of being tax-free for three years.
I have long heard the housekeeper say that no matter who you are now, as long as you apply to go to Yunzhong, you will get government funding. No matter whether you are from Guanzhong or not, as long as you find a sponsor, you can take your whole family to the frontier to farm, or even become a refugee.
, the government will pretend not to know, fill in your household registration again, and then escort your whole family to Yunzhong.
In February of the second year of Wude in the Tang Dynasty (619), in the early Tang Dynasty, rent was fixed, Yong, and Tiaofa were promulgated and implemented at the same time as the land equalization system five years later. It was based on the premise that each male should be granted a hundred acres of land. On this basis, "if there is land, there will be rent"
, If you have a family, you will have harmony, if you have a body, you will have mediocrity." This was reasonable in the early years of the Tang Dynasty. Soldiers were hidden in farmers. They were farmers in peacetime and soldiers in wartime. It is said that those who have no permanent property have no perseverance. When a person
In order to protect their own interests, even the most cowardly chicken will turn into a beast.
However, this good method is destined to be impossible to implement for a long time. As the population increases, the land in the hands of the government will gradually decrease. By then, it will not be possible to distribute so much land equally to everyone.
Acquisition of land has always been the biggest hobby of the powerful. The old woman of the Yun family still believes that the most valuable thing of the Yun family is the two thousand acres of fiefdom. As for the money in the warehouse, she is not very interested. Although she is old, every month
Sitting in a carriage touring the Yun family's land still made her enjoy it.
She wouldn't even frown if a thousand pounds of money were missing from the warehouse. She usually helped the refugees and never cared about money. But if anyone dared to chop down a sapling on the Yun family's land, she would find out and get furious.
Planting crops has almost become a burden for the Yun family, but the top priority every year is still the crops, worshiping gods, praying, wearing rags to pick wheat ears, and receiving new crops in the warehouse with a bright red seal and the words "good luck" written on them.
If so, the mice in the warehouse will receive preferential treatment. Changing the habits passed down from our ancestors will definitely not happen overnight.
Ever since Ma Zhou exposed the fact that the nobles had annexed acres of land, the land control of the country had reached its limit. For three consecutive years, Yun Ye had not heard of any family's land increasing on a large scale. The same was true for the prince, but it was the Yun family.
Suddenly there was a field outside the fortress, at the foot of Yinshan Mountain, connected to Rimu's pasture. I heard that this guy Zhengbi drooled with envy. He wanted to exchange his large piece of land with the Yun family, but Rimu would rather jump into the well than do it.
.
Chilechuan, at the foot of Yinshan Mountain, the sky is like a dome, covering the surrounding fields. The sky is blue, the fields are vast, and the wind blows the grass, and you can see the cattle and sheep. This is Rimu's favorite song, although she likes to sing all songs, especially that song.
The circle song she sang for the first time is her treasure, and she always sings a verse when she is happy.
It is said that people are cheap when they leave their hometown, but under the temptation of good farmland, many farmers have packed their bags and prepared to go far beyond the Great Wall to start their new life there.
You can always see a man pushing a wheelbarrow or carrying a load on the road, with his wife sitting on the wheelbarrow, or a couple carrying a load together, one picking up the household items and the other picking up the children. Different from the loneliness and helplessness of the refugees, they all
He smiled loudly and greeted his fellow villagers, his dark face full of hope.
Only the spontaneous ones are the most orderly. The government also showed the greatest sincerity and patience this time. The emperor specially sent three thousand troops of the Right Guards to escort them. There was murderous intent along the way. Green Forest Road was in bad luck and was wiped out.
Countless cottages, these strongmen eventually became farmers who wanted to reclaim wasteland in the clouds, but they needed to work under the supervision of swords and guns. Governments from various places sent a lot of large livestock, and almost every three-person family would be allocated one.
This saves the immigrants from the pain of traveling thousands of miles. They grit their teeth and hurried on. When they reach the fields, spring has come, and there is still time to plant the first crops.
The villagers didn't know, but Yun Ye knew very well that the ruthless Hou Junji was now carrying out a new round of purges on the prairie. Tribes with a little noise would often disappear from the world overnight.
When others asked, the government's answer was that the herdsmen had moved to other places.
Ma Zhou was there, still living in Na Rimu's ranch. He was very familiar with Yun Qi, and he specially set up his official office in Na Rimu's ranch. It was also the only place where he would not get looked down upon.
After this round of raids by Hou Junji on the prairie, it is estimated that even the buttocks of wild wolves are covered with the red seal of the Tang Dynasty. Immigrants from Guanzhong will soon arrive and start large-scale sheep raising and farming. This is Li Er
The wool-producing land prepared for the Tang Dynasty cannot be missed. Only Yun Ye knows what kind of damage the farming people will cause to the grassland. The Han people are originally a people who like to farm. Everywhere they go, they must try to cultivate the land.
What to plant in it will make you feel at ease.
Therefore, in the Gobi, in the wasteland, in the desert, on the islands, in the mountains, as long as there are places where people have reached, crops will always grow in the land, and the land always listens to the words of the Han people, whatever you plant, you will grow.
When you see the layers of terraced fields in the mountains, the lush crops in the desert, and the fresh vegetables, don’t be surprised. For a nation that can grow watermelons on an island full of rocks, those miracles are not miracles, they are just a matter of life.
a part of.
Woolen materials have now appeared in small quantities, and the price is very expensive. Yun Ye has done nothing else except getting some to make cloaks. Although the red cloaks in the past were beautiful, they were very elegant when riding a horse, and they were left behind.
The unbridled flow of tears and snot always destroys the heroic spirit.
Woolen fabrics are most suitable for blankets, and crisp fabrics are also most suitable for military uniforms. Only this kind of fabric can bring out the temperament of a soldier. Li Er expressed his deep agreement with Yun Ye's words.
The only thing that has not changed in the land of Guanzhong is Yunjia Zhuangzi. The market is still bustling with people coming and going. At the door of the newly opened shop of the Du family, people are busy soliciting customers. Yun Ye strangely asks Xin Yue from the small window.
: "In two days, the Du family's business has been opened?"
Xin Yue covered her mouth and said with a smile: "My stupid husband, the Du family already had business in the market, but the place was rented from our family. Now that the land is given to his family, this business is really serious."
It belongs to the Du family. Unlike before, if our family wants to drive him away, he has to leave. If he can't feel at ease, the business will not be big. Now the land and shops have become his family. Of course, the spirit will be different. Yesterday
I gave Mrs. Du a letter, saying that she was planning to sell the land that his family rented, and asked her if she was interested in taking over. As a result, the manager came back with a note of 800 guan, saying that it was not enough.
Supplement. They have already expected it and have already inquired about the price. We are just waiting for our nod."
The only person with such a brain is the old guy Du Ruhui Dumin. Yun Ye smiled and looked inside when passing by the Du family's shop. There were many customers.
There are no young people in Yunjiazhuang, no matter whether they are men or women. There are only old men and women sitting on benches basking in the sun, pushing the cradle next to them from time to time, and a few children who can only walk, wearing crotchless pants.
Climbing everywhere.
After entering the door, Wangcai ran over. He hadn't seen him for a few days, and he was panicking. Wangcai and Yun Ye both disliked Chang'an. Yun Ye didn't like to see Li Er and Changsun, but Wangcai didn't like seeing Li Er and Zhangsun because of his boss.
Some kind-hearted people were ready to take him home to raise him, but he had kicked and injured several of them, so he felt that Chang'an was just a big stable with grooms everywhere.
Qian Tong took the oxtail duster to dust the Marquis early. Yun Ye stretched out his arms to accept Qian Tong's kindness. After he finished his work, he asked: "Steward, I saw a lot of people dragging me home along the way.
The ones with mouths are preparing to leave the fortress. How many of them are there in our family? Count them and let them follow our caravan to deal with them. There is no need to crowd with those people. "
Qian Tong was stunned for a moment. After he figured out what the Marquis meant, he said with a smile: "Master Marquis, you are worrying too much. No one in our village is out of control, and the manpower in our village is far from enough.
Whoever wants to go out of the fortress is only a second-rate man. The steward of the caravan always asks the old slave for manpower and asks for people from our village. But if he has a more flexible mind, the old slave will be put into the caravan to practice. As for the brain
The stubborn ones just farmed the land and worked in the workshops at home. There was no one idle all year round. The old slave wished that the children would grow up into big boys all of a sudden and had to pull their ears all day long, but
Those kids never grow up."
The old guy was telling a joke, and his words were full of confidence. The chief bookkeeper of Lantian County also went to Yunjiazhuangzi to ask if anyone was willing to go out. The result was not good. He sat under the sign and waited for a day, but no one came.
A door-to-door visitor. Finally, there was a door-to-door visitor. He was still a little kid. He pointed at the sign and insisted that there was a typo. He despised the master for not studying hard. He even wrote a word with many missing strokes. He was ready to teach the leader in the sandbox.
The bookkeeper, the chief bookkeeper with a dark face ran away so far. You don’t even know cursive writing, so you dare to come and teach me a lesson?
After listening to the butler's joke, Yun Ye walked into the back hall from the front yard with a grin on his face, greeted his grandma, chatted with the old man for a while, and was about to go back to the study to read the new newspapers.
There's always a lot of fun happening.
Before reaching the Moon Gate, I heard the voices of Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda outside. I don’t know what happened, but the voices of the two veterans were full of panic. (To be continued. Please search Gone with the Wind.
