"The first decree of the county governor's office!"
People gathered again and started discussing.
"County Hou Qiuzheng!"
"First, the county lord has thousands of acres of fertile land, keeping a hundred acres for himself, and the rest will be assigned to the army! Starting today, Yinzhou will implement the garrison system one after another!"
At this time, the people were all in a rage.
The soldiers of the government farmed the land and gave the land free of charge? Training when they are free and farming when they are busy? This idea still seems quite strange today. In fact, in the history of China, the first to use this military system was the Northern and Southern Dynasties.
At that time, it was called the Fubing System. The country granted soldiers a certain amount of land and allowed them to farm the land with their families. After one year of farming, the land was yours.
In the Tang Dynasty, the Zhechong Prefecture was established. At this time, the integration of military and peasantry was truly achieved. However, the production tools at that time still had to be devised by the farmers themselves.
But in the Ming Dynasty, it developed into a garrison system.
The garrison system clearly stipulates that land and military households can be inherited by the eldest son.
Liu Zheng's military garrison system was much improved.
Production tools are provided by the county government!
The land is yours if it is given to you, as long as you join the military household!
The most important thing is that as long as it is military land, it is all tax-free!
This is simply good news for Yinzhou, which is full of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes!
Therefore, the people were excited.
"Is there such a good thing?"
"I want to be a soldier too!"
"Stop talking, I'll sign up first!"
Countless people rushed towards the county marshal's mansion.
And when the second decree was issued, many people couldn't sit still.
"Two, the land inheritance law has been changed! Starting today, land inheritance in Yinzhou will be changed from the eldest son inheritance law to the natural inheritance law! The specific laws are as follows..."
At this moment, everyone was really confused.
Land inheritance law?
Can this be changed?
Is there anything wrong with the primogeniture law that has lasted for thousands of years?
This change in the inheritance law will actually have little impact on the common people, but will have the greatest impact on prominent families!
The three prominent families were all unable to sit still.
But they have not yet reacted to this second decree.
Article 3 of the decree, Article 4, Article 5...
It can be said to have completely set off a major construction boom in Yinzhou.
"Third, farmers are encouraged to reclaim wasteland and farmland. The ownership will permanently belong to the farmers and they will be exempted from taxes for three years!"
"The fourth and fourth departments formulate tax policies, and we will be tax-free for three years!"
"Fifth, Yinzhou increases the entry tax and bridge tax for foreign traders..."
"Sixth, the selection of counselors for the county houfu will be carried out one after another..."
"Seven, encourage horse breeding in Liangzhou. The county magistrate will build horse stables and breeders will be exempted from taxes!"
The entire Yinzhou land was filled with joy, changing from the lifeless atmosphere when Liu Zheng first arrived.
