Chapter 788: I, Azai, am not aggressive

The Chinese people's attachment to the land is deeply rooted. Since the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties in ancient times, land has been the most important means of production and source of property. According to different political situations and needs, various dynasties have often made different management methods for the land.

Corresponding changes, of course, some of the dynasties were just messing around

There were some differences between the Xia and Shang periods and the current Five Emperors period. Although the land system was still public ownership of land based on clan units, and agricultural production was carried out through collective labor, in the Xia and Shang eras, there were already slave owners and big nobles.

They had their own fiefdoms, and the property rights of the fiefdoms were different from those in the Five Emperors era.

In the era of the Five Emperors, the more famous people with fiefdoms were "Bo Cheng Zi Gao" and "Hua", but they had no control over the people on the land. In the Shang Dynasty, the great nobles already had private fiefs.

Territory and people.

 In the late Shang Dynasty, the feudal system had begun to take shape, but the Shang Dynasty's concept of feudalism was somewhat different from that of the Zhou Dynasty.

During the Zhou Dynasty, under the enfeoffment system, the sovereignty and property rights of the land belonged to the King of Zhou, and the princes only had financial and administrative rights. The land and subjects in the country were nominally owned by the King of Zhou. That is to say, "In the whole world, there is nothing but the king's land."

On the shore of the soil, could it be the king's ministers?" The land system at that time was the well-field system.

However, in the later period, as the control and majesty of the Zhou king were wiped out, the recipients had turned the land into their own private property. This situation had already appeared at the beginning of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. From that time on, various

The country is no longer a vassal of Emperor Zhou.

The Qin and Han dynasties had complete private ownership of land.

Yu Zai did not expect that the first land conflict would actually occur in the era of the Five Emperors, in the era of flood control by Yao, Shun and Yu, and in the sparsely populated Shu land, and on the tomb of the human king.

  After all, no matter in the Central Plains, Dongyi, or the South, such deep-seated problems have not arisen for the time being. As for Baiyue, people’s living conditions are different in each area, so they don’t care at all.

 It can only be said that the lack of order and chaos unexpectedly gave rise to the first impact and discussion on land.

Yuzai looked at Qizi, whose expression changed, and said that he had no intention of beating you. Don't think too much. If I wanted to beat you, I could beat you to death now, but this is unreasonable.

“I, Azai, have never been a fighter in my life and prefer to resolve fights. However, you all think that I love fighting. This is really a big misunderstanding. What bad intentions can a little wizard like me have?”

Yuzai asked Qizi: "Is the land left by your ancestors? Let me count you as one of them. No matter where you come from, at least you represent them now. So who are your ancestors?"

Is the human king of the Wulong clan?"

Qizi responded: "Of course it is. The human king is the ancestor. Even if he is not a blood descendant, he is still a person who migrated here. Do you want to say that if you are not a descendant of the five dragons, you cannot own the land here?"

"In the era of the Human Emperor, some people also entered Shu, and in the era of Yanhuang Rebellion, some people also entered Shu. There are many people in Shu, and most of them came here to avoid the chaos. And the people of Jiangzhou, that is, you Shushan

The clan only emerged from the stone chambers of Minshan Mountain three hundred years ago due to floods. If we want to discuss the past and present, or talk about ancient times, then we are two thousand years earlier than you."

“Even two thousand years ago, maybe only a few dozen people entered here, but they were still the descendants of the Five Dragons.”

The Yellow Emperor was three hundred years ago, Shen Nong was more than eight hundred years ago, Fuxi and Nuwa were fifteen hundred years ago, and further back there was Chao Sui Ren Zhisheng, and those who were contemporaries with them and a little further back were about

In a few decades or more than a hundred years, it will be the era when the emperor of mankind will be at home.

Recommended, [ app ] is really good, worth installing for all book lovers, it is supported by Android and Apple phones!

Yu Zai was very surprised. He did not expect that this young Qi practitioner could actually say something like "since ancient times." Regardless of whether the awareness of land sovereignty had been formed or not, at least the other party's wisdom was considered advanced in this world.

This paragraph alone is enough. After all, ordinary people will only discuss interests and will not think of more things. Even if they are buying and selling land, if this land cannot be cultivated and lived, these descendants of the kings will not live here.

, and also had such conflicts with Jiangzhou people.

The Qingyi God said to Yuzai, if it really doesn't work, we won't want their land and build the city on the hills nearby. It's just a little further from the river and it's inconvenient to dig for water conservancy. But we have the manpower to divert water farther away.

It can be done.

But the Qingyi God wanted to take a step back. Unexpectedly, among the leaders of Shu, the leader of the Yufu clan seemed particularly tough.

"Cancong, we must not retreat. Today's land dispute must be resolved and we cannot give in. People in Shu are constantly migrating in order to survive. Today we must establish a country here and create a life for future generations.

The land that has been worry-free for hundreds of years cannot give up its own interests. You say that we can dig canals from far away to divert water, but what if one day, they will say that we can only manage this river, but it is human

We are not allowed to use what the king left to them, and even like the Gonggong clan, we can confine the water for our own use, and then we will eventually break out into a war."

“We are not fighting now because everything here is in dire need. We need people and help, but some things cannot be compromised. The proposal you mentioned is absolutely not feasible!”

The Tsing Yi God rarely sees this kind of attitude from the Yufu family. In fact, in comparison, the Cancong family has come out of hardships. He knows how to support each other, has strong strength and kindness, and is unwilling to be enemies with others.

It is precisely because of this that so many tribes have gathered together. Compared with Cancong, the Yufu clan is more decisive and iron-blooded, and pays more attention to interests. They deeply understand that the meat in the mouth should not be spit out.

Compensation can be given, and livestock and grain can even be paid for trade, because these are the scope of exchange and trade, but concessions are never allowed, that is weakness.

Especially today when there is a soy sauced Bai Pu Jun Chang, excessive weakness may be looked down upon by these Pu people. The Pu people have always been active in the southern region, but have fallen silent in recent years. This beggar is

The leader of the Yan people, the Yan people belong to a tribe of Bai Pu. Although he is young, the Yufu family always feels that the peace in the south of the river in recent years is inseparable from this young man.

 Speaking of which, this person is about the same age as Qizi and Yuzai, at most one or two years older.

It was at this time that Yu Zai expressed his attitude:

  “What you said is quite correct.”

Yu Zai spoke, and his admission made Qi Zi smile, and the people in Jiangzhou looked puzzled.

"From the past era, when some people settled on a piece of land, the ownerless land also had an owner, just like among animals, dogs will urinate to determine the scope of the territory, tigers and leopards have their own

Territory, they turn a blind eye to enemies outside the territory, but once they enter the territory, they will issue a warning, and if they do not listen and never leave, they will attack. They occupy a large area of ​​land to show off their power, and when they are weak, they will be replaced by new ones.

The land seized by the strong”

"Everyone must know what I am going to say next. People know the benefits of territory and know that more land and better land can be beneficial to their own development. So as the years go by, the various tribes have

The land under control will become larger and larger, and the collision of land areas will cause sovereignty issues and wars, just like now."

"However, we came here to found the country. The purpose of founding the country was to make the people of the tribe live a better life. It is not wrong for you to ask for more realistic things if you don't want such benefits. Therefore, we are not willing to see swordsmanship. You are not willing to

Seeing that the land has been occupied, let’s talk about land management issues.”

“A good terrain is helpful for development. How much do you know about the terrain of mountains and rivers?”

Yu Zai looked at Qi Zi, who said: "What are you asking about? I have also practiced with some wizards, seen some land features, and walked through many mountains and fields. My teacher is the emperor."

As a qigong practitioner of this era, do you think I haven’t seen the world?”

He reprimanded so loudly that Chi Songzi behind him raised his eyebrows at Guangchengzi.

 Young people today are really arrogant. Do they dare to come out and take on disciples after practicing for more than a hundred years?

 The social environment has really changed!

Yuzai was stunned for a moment, and he was pointing at Chisongzi: "How old do you think he is?"

Qizi looked at Chisongzi and snorted: "Eighty at most."

 “What about that one (referring to Guangcheng)?”

“Such a strong old man must be in his fifties or sixties.”

 Guangchengzi was overjoyed.

Chisongzi is furious!

  Am I not strong, Qiao Song?

Chisongzi asked angrily: "Boy, who is your master? What's his name? Where does he practice? Is he from the Central Plains or Xirong? I must visit him someday!"

I, Chisongzi, will not kill unknown people!

Qizi snorted and said, "My master is not here a long time ago. If you want to visit him, you must prepare the talismans first."

Seeing that Chi Songzi was about to slap someone, Ruzai quickly stopped him and then said: "Okay, let's get down to business. Since your master was a Qi practitioner in the Emperor Ku era, you at least have some knowledge about mountains, rivers, terrains and other things."

"Then you should know that the tribes who rely on the water can fish, the tribes who rely on the mountains can hunt, the tribes who rely on the plains can farm, and the tribes who rely on the grasslands can herd. This is called eating on the mountains and on the water.

If you graze in the plains and fish and hunt in the mountains and rivers, it will only get twice the result with half the effort and is not conducive to the development of the tribe."

“Let me ask you, even if you don’t want to live a better life, at least you don’t want to live a worse life than you do now, right?”

Qi Zi looked at the tribal leaders, who all nodded.

This is of course, so they believe that the people of Jiangzhou have contributed to water control, so they planned this from the beginning. They think that in this case, as long as their land is not involved, they will not want to work and build other places.

Tube.

 I just didn’t expect that the people of Jiangzhou were going to build the capital of Huayang on their land.

"Then, you don't need the sovereignty of your land, that is, your right to live from generation to generation. You can live as you want, and work as you want. After all, the kings and ancestors are buried here, so how can we occupy you?

Where’s the land!”

“Not only that, we also want to help you live a better life, not only with food, but also with clothing, farming, and handicrafts, but we will not take away your goods and food. What do you think?”

 When these words came out, both parties were stunned for a while, and then Ruan Zai continued:

"However, this is conditional. There is no doubt that Huayang Kingdom wants this land. Therefore, I hope you will contract this land to us and set a time limit. We will work and operate on the land.

Construction and production, as well as all the activities caused by contracting, you will be given a certain share of the profits, three out of ten."

“Of course, we pay for production activities and construction costs ourselves. After the land is contracted, these things start to be included in consumption. If you want to obtain the tools of production, you also need to trade, which is fair.”

The local people are a little shaken. As Hongchao said, it's not that we can't talk, but that there's no extra money.

 Qizi always feels like something is wrong, but doesn’t know where it is.

Yu Zai was thinking that although the contracting system was not as powerful as the ninety-nine-year lease, it was at least a gap that could be opened. As for the founding of Huayang, it would attract a large number of surrounding tribes to work, and the population would at least be able to

Increased to 15,000 people.

 As for the benefit of 30%, it is actually not a benefit but poison.

But this is a bit unpleasant to say. Of course, there may be wise people who realize the problem. For example, the descendants of the king entrusted the land, but they do not have the right to take it back before the time is up, and although they have benefits

It's possible, but it doesn't involve technology or politics, and you can't participate in Huayang's domestic affairs.

"We agreed, but there are some conditions. First, no city walls can be built."

The leaders of those tribes made the request, and Yu Zai also agreed to it amidst the puzzled looks of the people in Jiangzhou.

"Of course, it's not the land we acquired, so we won't build a city wall. However, although we don't build a city wall, the land is contracted out after all. For workshops and residences, in order to prevent the invasion of wild beasts, there must always be some ruins as cover.

, and the areas where land is cultivated must also be protected from being trampled by wild animals. These must be enclosed, right?”

Qi Zi thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so the leader beside him began to talk about several subsequent conditions.

They all sound harsh, and they are not conducive to the founding and development of Huayang, but Yu Zai agreed to them all. Of course, it is the same as before, just like you said you can't build a city wall, but I want to

There is no problem in protecting workshops and farmland and building fences.

With fences and land enclosures, the subsequent development is not visible to the eye. When the production level of Huayang Country reaches a certain level, land can be acquired. If the locals are unwilling to evict

, then they need to pay for the costs of production activities. If they cannot afford to pay

 Of course, this is the most sinister situation at present.

 After all, Azai’s conscience is still white.
