For those who object, Wang Ding knows their thoughts.
Today, many of the fields are in the hands of aristocratic families, and many ordinary people are tenants. The land has always been cultivated by these wealthy gentry families.
And many of these aristocratic families have to exploit at least 50% of their income, or even 60% to 70%.
They are fat and fat, but the tenants in their hands cannot even have enough food and clothing.
Wang Ding now digs official land and rents it to the common people, but only receives 30% to 40% of the grain.
Naturally, it had a great influence on these wealthy gentry from aristocratic families. They were worried that their fields would be left uncultivated, and that their tenants would cause trouble and go to the government.
But they didn’t know that Wang Ding had secretly noted those who opposed them.
I just have to wait for the future to settle the accounts.
Wang Ding has also been jealous of the fields in the hands of these wealthy families for a long time. He has long wanted to expropriate their fields and then distribute them to ordinary people.
Now is not the time.
In addition to the fields newly cultivated by the soldiers, the fields in Wang Ding's hands now are also owned by the wealthy families that Dong Zhuo killed before.
If Dong Zhuo hadn't killed a large number of people before, the land in Wang Ding's hands wouldn't be enough.
Some people oppose it, and some people agree with it.
Cai Yong and Jia Xu stood firmly on Wang Ding's side.
Jia Xu is from Liangzhou, and there is no land in Chang'an City. Wang's farming system cannot affect him.
Jia Xu can see clearly that he likes to protect himself wisely, but now he is also labeled as Wang Ding. He can only stand in the same boat as Wang Ding.
If Wang Ding is doing well, he will be doing well. If Wang Ding is having a hard time, it will be equally hard for Jia Xu in the court.
In addition, Jia Xu also believed that Wang Ding's farming system was beneficial. At least it was beneficial to the court and the people.
It only harms the interests of those wealthy families.
Cai Yong is wholeheartedly on the side of the people. The Cai family is also a wealthy family, and their family also has thousands of hectares of fertile land, but it is not here in Chang'an, but in Chen Liu's hometown.
Even though Cai Yong never thought about occupying ordinary people's fields.
However, as an important official of the imperial court and a famous person in the world, not all the children in the clan are as noble as Cai Yong.
When a person gains power, whether actively or passively, more and more people will always depend on him.
Unless Cai Yong one day takes the initiative to allocate all the fields in his family, otherwise the Cai family will only own more and more fields as time goes by.
But when Cai Yong opened his mouth, the Cai family was gone.
There are relatively few people who oppose Wang Ding this time, because most of the ministers are not from Chang'an.
Those who really stood up to oppose Wang Ding were that the family had already moved to Sanfu. They occupied tens of thousands of acres of land in Guanzhong.
The voice of opposition was not very loud and was easily suppressed by Wang Ding.
The people already have fields, but the newly cultivated fields were originally wasteland, and most of them are very barren, so Wang Ding is also studying how to make fertilizer.
Manure can be used as fertilizer, but the effect is too poor.
Wang Ding wants more effective fertilizers.
However, as an ambitious young man in the new century who is industrious and unable to distinguish between four crops, Wang Dingzhen really doesn’t know how to make fertilizer.
But it doesn't matter, he now has someone under his command, and he can find someone to experiment with.
Wang Ding specially found a few old farmers with rich experience.
Tell a few farmers about your requirements, let them try to use manure to make better fertilizer, and then test it on their own fields.
At the same time, Wang Ding promised them that if their output is lower than the original level, he will make up for it. If they succeed in making better fertilizer, Wang Ding will also receive additional rewards.
In addition, Wang Ding also wants to appoint a Diannong Xiaowei to be responsible for many things in the field.
However, there are currently no good candidates.
Wang Ding asked Jia Xu and Cai Yong to recommend individuals for selection.
Cai Yong and Jia Xu both recommended several candidates to Wang Ding.
The recommendations recommended by the two people are all qualified in terms of ability and conduct.
However, among the candidates recommended by Jia Xu, there was a name that caught Wang Ding's attention.
Yang Xiu, courtesy name Dezu, currently has no official status. He is the son of Taiwei Yang Biao and is one year younger than Wang Ding.
Wang must be familiar with this person.
Then there is no need to choose. Wang Ding is not afraid that Yang Xiu is young now, so he directly chooses Yang Xiu as the captain of Dian Nong School.
Unexpectedly, Jia Xu discovered Yang Xiu's talent within just a few months of coming to Chang'an.
This vision is really amazing, Wang Ding admires it very much.
Jia Xu was also very surprised by Wang Ding's choice.
He wrote Yang Xiu's name, but never thought that Wang would really choose Yang Xiu.
After all, given Yang Xiu's current age, although he already has a reputation for intelligence, how can we ensure that Yang Xiu can do well?
As for the candidate he recommended, Jia Xu was actually better than the other one. He couldn't help but ask: "General Right, why did you choose Yang Xiu?"
Wang Dingdao: "I have heard of its name for a long time, but I have never seen it."
When Wang Ding saw Yang Xiu, both of them were very curious.
In the past few months, Yang Xiu's ears have almost become confused when it comes to Wang Ding's name.
He was very curious about who Wang Ding was. He was similar in age to him, but he had already done so many great things.
And he himself, despite his reputation as a smart man, was just studying at home.
Listening to Wang Ding's deeds every day, Yang Xiu couldn't help but wanted to become an official and do something.
At the same age, he doesn't want to be compared to Wang Ding.
It was only at this moment, when the two met, that Yang Xiu realized that he was actually a little nervous when facing Wang Ding.
They are about the same age, but the things that Wang Ding has experienced and the blood he has seen during this period have long distanced Wang Ding from people of the same age. Their temperaments are completely different.
The original Wang Ding was actually similar to the current Yang Xiu. He looked like a handsome young man with an elegant temperament.
But now Wang Ding's original elegance has long since disappeared. Instead, he has an iron-blooded aura, and his skin is much darker than that of Yang Xiu.
"Are you confident that you can be qualified for the position of Diannong Captain?" Wang Ding asked.
Yang Xiu nodded. Although he had been compared to Wang Ding, he did not lose confidence.
Wang Dingdao: "In addition to managing the farmland, you also need to pay attention to the farmers."
Especially those farmers who were assigned by Wang Ding to make fertilizers. Wang Ding asked Yang Xiu to follow up and participate together.
Yang Xiu is really smart, he just used the ability of the prophet.
Maybe Yang Xiu will be able to make better fertilizers after studying with a few old farmers for a while.
Yang Xiu still doesn’t understand what chemical fertilizer is, but he still nods in agreement.
He is confident in himself.
Wang Ding said to Jia Xu again: "Dezu was recommended by Mr. Dezu, and I want him to be known as a Dian Nong Zhonglang General."
For those who are capable, Wang Ding will definitely put more burdens on them.
As for Jia Xu, the current minister of Sanqi, he is really too idle at ordinary times. Liu Xie is only twelve years old now, and he is a puppet. He really does not need Jia Xu to accompany him.
