The tenant farmers of Yilingzhuang were convinced that Fengyu was young and bargaining. Fengyu didn't like to be entangled in one thing repeatedly when doing business, and Yilingzhuang was her territory. She couldn't help others taking advantage of it, so she wanted to fight quickly.
Making a quick decision, she thought of a damaging move. She divided twenty acres of dry land east of Yilingzhuang and prepared to sell it.
There are a hundred households in Lingzhuang, and they have to fight for 20 acres of land. The tenant farmers who buy the land can be assigned to her camp. Feng Yu knows the principle of leveraging strength. She can only use this gentleness to avoid the rat.
The method used was to win people's hearts and then defeat them one by one. Three acres of land were sold to Li Zheng first. Whoever's family didn't cause trouble this time would be given priority to buy the land.
As soon as this news came out, Yilingzhuang was in chaos. Hundreds of tenant farmers originally worked together to deal with Feng Yu, but ultimately it was the conflict between the tenant farmers and the landlords. Feng Yu easily turned into a conflict within the tenant farmers. Why can you buy it?
If you can't buy it, have you hooked up with Feng Yu a long time ago and become our traitor?
At the same time, Feng Yu sent Zhang Da to Gaoping County to find a group of tenants to come to Yilingzhuang to view the land, and spread the news that after the lease of the land in Yilingzhuang expired in August, they would look for new tenants. She sent people to look at it first.
If you are interested, you can sign a contract.
After a two-pronged approach, the tenant farmers in Yilingzhuang were the most panicked.
Xie Xun was playing swordsmanship in the courtyard, moving clouds and flowing water, making tigers and tigers stir up wind. The hot summer in May forced him to sweat all over. Nuanyang and Feiying went to inquire about Yilingzhuang. They saw that they had a falling out, and several families even started fighting.
Fei Ying said, "This girl's trick is really good. The tenant farmers didn't dare to force her anymore. They were all calling the tenant farmer who bought the land a traitor. They were making trouble all night, especially the family whose parents died. Please see the girl."
Buying a few acres of land because their family had a prosperous population would cancel everything. The girl didn't respond, saying that the land was tight, and others had already taken the lead. The family was already arrogant, and the fight was bloody. The Gaoping County Magistrate came.
, otherwise there will still be trouble."
Nuanyang and Feiying sat on the roof watching the show all night, marveling, "These tenant farmers in Yilingzhuang just bullied the young girl and made trouble deliberately. They didn't learn the lesson from the trouble last time, and they made trouble again. In the final analysis, they are not greedy enough."
The snake swallows the elephant. They want the land, but the girl doesn't want to sell it. Good words and good words can still convince the girl. If they insist on making trouble, the girl has a temperament that accepts softness rather than hardness."
Xie Xun put away his sword, pulled out a beautiful sword flower, and inserted the long sword into the weapon rack. Would you like to eat soft or hard? His little girl obviously doesn't want to eat soft or hard.
If he hadn't been engaged to him, he would have been afraid of violent suppression by others, and would not have tolerated the tenant farmers from making trouble.
"Are the tenant farmers over there in the family making trouble?"
Fei Ying shook his head, "The tenant farmers of the Li and Cai families also mentioned that they wanted to buy land. After the family owner rejected it, they suppressed it, so there was no way to cause trouble."
"They just bully the girl when she is young." Nuanyang pouted, "They bully the weak and fear the strong."
Xie Xun felt that the tenant farmers were pitiful. This group of people had been tenant farmers for generations, and it was difficult for them to stand up. They were exploited for their labor force layer by layer by the aristocracy. It was really pitiful. The New Deal wanted to change the situation so that the tenant farmers could get their own land and be able to live and work in peace and contentment.
Feng Yu did not sell the land, but in fact she was not optimistic about the implementation of the New Deal.
She doesn't want to sell the land, and the taxes must be borne by the tenant farmers. Otherwise, with so much land and heavy taxes, she will definitely lose money. Not only will these fields not bring her any income, but they will increase her burden. Feng Yu said these
He did not lend money on land in 2006, so he was kind to the tenant farmers.
She is prepared for danger in times of peace and will not sell her land.
The method is very beautiful, and the handling is very subtle. If you pick yourself out easily, there should be no trouble in Yilingzhuang. The tenant farmers will only follow the policies formulated by Feng Yu.
Feng Yu asked, "Do you think I'm a little cruel?"
"This matter...is not anyone's fault." Xie Xun replied thoughtfully. He was born in a noble family, and his family had been the mainstay of the Yanyang Dynasty for several generations. He had no worries about food and clothing. When he was young, he also spent a lot of money, but he never knew where the money came from.
It was so difficult for ordinary people to earn a few pennies. He was not qualified to accuse Feng Yu of being cruel.
He felt that the tenant farmers were pitiful and had been exploited for generations. They just wanted to cultivate the fields and no longer be controlled by others. They wanted to live with dignity and live and work in peace and contentment. This was also the original intention of the New Deal. But he could not purely stand on the side of
Thinking from the perspective of a tenant farmer, it is not because he is fond of Fengyu, but because of his origin, he has taken advantage of class dividends and squandered the resources of the whole territory.
It would be too hypocritical to say that he only dedicated himself to the tenant farmers.
These contradictions cannot be changed by one person. Xie Xun only hopes that one day, the New Deal will be implemented and the country and people's peace they expect will come.
The young have someone to rely on, and the old have someone to support them.
"Whether the New Deal is implemented or not, I will not sell the land in my hand." Feng Yu's attachment to land is deeper than Xie Xun thought, "Unless one day the taxes are so heavy that they exceed the load, but if it does,
Sometimes, it will cause new conflicts between merchants and the court. The new policy can solve the problem of land annexation, but it cannot completely cure it. Unless all land is owned by the state, it can only be leased and cannot be bought or sold. As long as there is buying and selling, the land will be controlled by a small number of people.
If I were born as a sharecropper, I would also be desperate and miserable. The strict class structure would be difficult to overcome and I would be burdened throughout my life. But I am born as a businessman and enjoy gold and silver wealth. It would be difficult for me to empathize with them from their standpoint. Even if I empathize with them,
, I can’t even spend all my money to return the land to farmers.”
Xie Xun couldn't help laughing and asked jokingly, "Are you explaining to me?"
"Yes!" Feng Yu laughed, "Although I have never been a kind person in your heart, I still want to explain and try to save my precarious image."
Xie Xun looked at her pretending to be calm, feeling soft and sad. He hugged Feng Yu and said softly, "Don't worry about anyone, just do whatever you want. No one's thoughts matter, including me. If
You are soft-hearted and can be deceived. You died in famine back then, and I will never have the chance to meet you in this life."
