Father-in-law Zhu Di, I am so happy to marry the disfigured princess

on the venue.

The royal relatives and nobles began to hand over their fields one after another.

Those son-in-laws and county horses can also get equity after handing over, for example, the son-in-law can get five ten thousandths of the equity.

Of course, this equity is counted on the princess or the princess. These sons-in-law and county horses just came to attend the meeting instead of the princess and the princess. After all, it is not convenient for women to show their faces in this age.

"Wei Guogong, don't hesitate, hurry up and hand it in, don't you understand, if this matter is not acquiesced by the Holy One, the national teacher can carry it out like this?"

At this time, Wei Guogong Xu Huizu was still hesitating, and Li Jinglong on the side persuaded him.

The implication is that if Li Xiao dares to do this, it is actually the intention of the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty. Do you want to disobey the Holy Majesty?
"Hey"

Xu Huizu was thinking a lot, but he couldn't bear to part with his family's land. The equity and other things were illusory, but the land was real.

However, thinking that this is a national policy, how can he, as the Duke of the country, prevent the implementation of the national policy, he still moved his body and went to the workbench.

Seeing that the Duke of Guo was coming, everyone gave way one after another to let Duke Wei go first.

After a while, Xu Huizu's [-] mu of fertile land was handed over.

The staff shouted: "Wei Guogong Xu Huizu successfully signed the contract, and the land totaled 1106 acres, equivalent to [-] million taels of silver. As a duke, he handed over the acres of land and received an additional reward of [-]% of the permanent equity of Nanjing Fertilizer Factory!!"

As soon as the last Duke of the state had handed in, the rest of the people also handed in one after another.

"uncle."

Li Xiao walked to Xu Huizu's side and shouted softly.

He can ignore other people, but Ningyun has confessed that the relationship with her uncle cannot be made too rigid, so she still needs to appease her.

"Don't call me uncle, I'm humble and can't bear it."

Xu Huizu waved his robe, his face full of dissatisfaction.

"Uncle, look what you said."

Li Xiao smiled apologetically, pulled Xu Huizu aside, and said in a low voice, "Uncle, your nephew is clear about the situation of your fields. Back then, the Supreme Emperor rewarded all the good farmland, and there were tea trees and tea trees planted on top of the fields. The fruit tree, charged at 20 taels of silver, is indeed a loss, and my nephew has additional compensation."

Xu Huizu looked sideways at Li Xiao, "Oh?"

Li Xiao rubbed his hands and said: "My nephew will compensate you for a big business, and also give you the general agent of Xiangyun Brand Fertilizer in Nanzhili. You don't have to do anything. You only need to prepare a large warehouse to stock up. And below Sub-agents in various prefectures and towns need to get goods from you. Every time they sell a bag of fertilizer, they will get a commission, which means they can earn tens of thousands of taels of silver a year."

Right now, the business model implemented by Li Xiao is the most traditional business model.

The factory produces, the general agent gets the goods, and there are government agents, town agents, and distributors below.

The general agent needs someone with strong funds to hold it. Isn't this just more than 100 million taels in hand?

Obviously this uncle is the best candidate, his identity and status are enough to suppress this Nan Zhili,
This kind favor can not only restore the relationship, but also choose a good candidate, which is very suitable.

"Is there such a good thing?" Xu Huizu was a little tempted.

During these years in Beiping, he also knew the way of Li Xiao's factory.

The factory does not sell. There are many agents and distributors below. Generally speaking, the general distributor of the entire Shuntian Prefecture earns the most.

"We are a family, and this is my nephew's heart."

Li Xiao said with a smile: "Uncle, you have stayed in Beiping and you should know the gold content of the general agent, and this is the general agent of the chemical fertilizer factory. If it is a bidding, no matter how many people fight for it."

Xu Huizu nodded immediately: "That's right, it's still a little friendship, then I'd rather be respectful than obedient."

Although Xu Huizu still has a position in Beiping City and has no time to take care of it, this property can be operated by his sons. He has seven or eight sons.

"However. Nanjing's chemical fertilizer factory has not yet written a word." Xu Huizu thought for a while and said, "You kid, do you have something else to do?"

How could Xu Huizu fail to see that Li Xiao still had something to say.

"I can't hide anything from you, uncle."

Li Xiao whispered: "The fertilizer plant in Nanjing has not yet been built, and there are still many twists and turns. Right now, Yu Qian is operating it. You"

Li Xiao thought that with Xu Huizu helping Yu Qian, things would progress much faster.

Xu Huizu waved his hand and refused, "No time. I'm busy with business, so I'm going back to Peiping today."

Li Xiao: "."

Sure enough, this person is someone who can't command himself.

But Li Xiao still smiled and said, "It's all right, Uncle, that business is still on your shoulders."

Xu Huizu was noncommittal and left with his hands behind his back.

Li Xiao: "."

How arrogant!
The time has come to afternoon.

Things went very smoothly. Most people chose to hand over the land, while some officials were still hesitant.

However, following Li Xiao's coercion and temptation, he finally took over the land.

In this way, all the lands of officials, nobles, and relatives of the emperor in Southern Zhili were successfully collected without any twists and turns.

The reason is that Li Xiao didn't cheat them too much, he still gave them subsidies, and even gave them benefits.

The money given is not silver, but banknotes of Ming Dynasty.

However, today's Daming treasures are valuable, and they also know that they can be exchanged for silver at any time in Beiping.

At the end of the meeting, Li Xiao asked everyone to leave.

"Master National Teacher,"

Yu Shihui from the Ministry of Household Affairs reported: “A total of 650 million acres of farmland were collected, and a subsidy of 3000 million taels was distributed.”

In the end, Yu Shi was a little speechless. This is too exaggerated. This is the land of the officials and nobles in Nanzhili, and it only cost 3000 million taels of silver.

It’s no wonder that Yu Shi was frightened. In the past few years, the tax revenue of the entire Ming Dynasty was only more than 2000 million taels. This time, the land acquisition cost more than [-] million, which is equivalent to five years of national fiscal revenue.

Moreover, this land only occupies a small part of southern Zhili, and the bulk of it has not yet come, and it will be spread all over the country later.

If this progress continues, the amount of silver spent will be astronomical.

Li Xiao smiled and asked, "Yu Shi, do you think this number is a lot?"

Yu Shi nodded: "Indeed, there are too many, unimaginable."

Li Xiao laughed, and said: "You have to know that these lands will belong to the imperial court in the future, and it will be permanent. How much tax will this generate, once and for all, don't you think it's too much?"

According to Li Xiao, it's really not much to think so.

After all, these lands belong to the imperial court, and they will be leased to others in the future, and the money that should be collected will be collected at the moment of lease.

Later, the imperial court vigorously developed and constructed all the land owned by the imperial court. The transfer of a piece of land by the imperial court was a large amount of fiscal revenue.

It is also very convenient for road construction and demolition.

In short, it is a good deal once and for all, one step in place.

"Thinking of it this way, it's not much."

Yu Shi nodded, but in his heart he admired the national teacher very much, dare to think and do it!
Li Xiao smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Do a good job. You have been working hard during this period. You have to re-measure and draw the entire land in southern Zhili. I want to know how much land is not owned by the imperial court, and how much land there is." The farmland can be used.”

Yu Shi nodded vigorously.

The first step has been done, and the next step is the main event.

In this way, after a large amount of land was taken over, the imperial court finally had its own territory.

This is very important.

Because the dormitory chiefs of the dormitory yamen scattered in various places finally have a place to play.

The dormitory where the land belongs to is managed by that dormitory.

They can rent out the land, usually every five or ten years, and the rent is actually equivalent to the previous taxes.

In other words, the tax is collected at the moment of renting out.

In addition, if the free land can be used, some village enterprises can also be established without having to go to the local landlord to buy land and suffer.

at the same time.

Li Xiao announced the new Daming law in the court, which caused a sensation in the whole Nanzhili.

Abolish all personal taxes, including poll tax, property tax, and rations.
In addition, corvee service and the household registration system were abolished, and only military service was retained.

This means that everyone is free and can do whatever they want. The former farmers can now go into business, the former businessmen can now work in agriculture, and the former craftsmen can still study now.

Even if they used to be slaves, they can now leave their masters without being sanctioned by the law and protected by the law.

But there is a prerequisite for enjoying this. People who have no land in their hands can enjoy tax exemption and become a completely free person.

After all, a large amount of land is still in the hands of the common people, and the land has to be taken back from the hands of the common people.

As soon as the policy came out, many people began to make small calculations.

The people with only a few acres of Susukida pay taxes every year, and after the harvest, there is not much left.

It is better to sell the land to the court, 20 taels per mu is not a lot.

The main reason is that there is no need to pay taxes and no labor.

As for military service, everyone is still willing to do it, because the current military system has also been changed, and you will get a lot of money after serving as a soldier for two years.

But the question is, after selling the fields, what will they do and what will they eat in the future?
You can't just sit and eat, can you?

But this problem was quickly and effectively resolved.

Because recruitment is here.

That's right, the Beiping Power Plant recruits a large number of workers.

Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui sent people to spread the word everywhere to recruit workers, no matter what status they were, as long as they were in good health, able-bodied and between the ages of 16 and 40, regardless of gender, they could become power plant workers.

A power plant is a big project. It is no exaggeration to say that it is comparable to a big project like the Grand Canal. In addition to the power plant, wires and cables must also be laid.

For example, if a telegram from Peking wanted to reach Nanjing, a cable had to be laid on the ground.

Therefore, the labor required is very huge, so it costs [-] million taels of silver, all of which were excavated from the former Wa Kingdom and now Donghai Prefecture.

The treatment in the power plant is very good, including food and housing, four days of vacation a month, and three taels of silver per month.

Of course, this work is more difficult, exposed to wind and rain.

But the problem is that the Chinese people are hard-working people, as long as they can eat enough, what is the point of suffering?
People look at it, my God!

I cultivate the land all year round, all year round, and I can't save five taels of silver even if I am so tight. This year, I have more than 30 taels.

If you don't have to pay taxes, food and accommodation are included. Isn't this a pure profit?

Ever since, many courageous people actually sold their land to apply for jobs, and then followed Zhu Gaosui on the train to Beiping.

In this way, Zhu Gaosui took several trains back and forth, and took thousands of people to Beiping. These thousands of people sold their land to the court.

Of course, more people are waiting and watching.

After all, they couldn't believe that there were such good things in the world.

But it doesn't matter, Li Xiao has a way to make them change their minds.

That is to play a movie.

However, the work of showing movies needs to be implemented by the district yamen.

Right now, after Li Xiao put pressure on the magistrates and county magistrates in various places last time, there is indeed competition. There are more than 500 yamen in the districts of the districts, and more than 800 are under construction, and the remaining 300 are still arguing. .

Well, the first thing is to let the yamen in various places land.

During this time, Li Xiao started to travel around, led the army, and started the forced demolition work.

That's right, the documents for forced demolition some time ago fell on the desk of the reform command department, and they piled up high, and it has been some days.

Many powerful families stood in the way of the sheriffs and refused to buy land for them.

In such a situation, the only option is to demolish it!

Some time ago, they thought that Li Xiao didn't dare to demolish it, but Li Xiao didn't make a move.

But now, after Li Xiao has finished his work, he is about to get serious.

Zhenjiang Mansion, Huxi Town, Xujiazhuang.

Today, Li Xiao led the army and personally came to this place to demolish it.

But it encountered fierce resistance from the Xu family.

A few days ago, the demolition was going smoothly. Li Jinglong and his generals each led a thousand cavalry to perform tasks.

And Li Xiao also personally led a thousand cavalry to carry out forced demolitions in various places.

No matter where they went, those tyrants were immediately cowed, even if they had guns in their hands, they didn't dare to take them out, and obediently gave in.

Including the Zhao family of the Minister of the Ministry of War who refused to give in, when Li Xiao really brought the army, the Zhao family immediately became cowardly, and Li Xiao did what he said.

But today I encountered some trouble.

There are more than 2000 people from all over Xujiazhuang, all blocking the way into the village, resisting with hoes and other farm tools in their hands.

"The robber is coming, beat the robber away!"

"The robber get out!"

"Get out, get out of our territory!"

Thousands of people shouted loudly, including members of the Xu family, and all the others were villagers, obviously being brought into rhythm.

"My lord, the villagers here are very tough, it's hard to deal with it."

The district chief here saw this scene and whispered to Li Xiao.

Chang Yingwu on the side whispered: "Patriarch, it's hard to do, I'm afraid it will hurt the villagers."

That's right, Chang Yingwu's troops have been dispatched from Peiping because Li Xiao felt that something big was about to happen.

Li Xiao nodded: "It is indeed very tough, even the army dares to stop it."

Li Xiao shouted loudly: "Folks, be sensible, I, Li Xiao, have brought you a good life!"

The villagers didn't believe it and kept swearing.

However, Li Xiao was also very patient, so he led the cavalry and stood at the entrance of the village, neither going in nor leaving.

Just when the situation was deadlocked, the Xu family opened up the situation themselves.

The Patriarch of the Xu family rushed out with about fifty people holding flintlock guns. They stood in a row and formed a long spear pair, pointing their guns at Li Xiao's cavalry.

"Leave quickly, or don't blame us for being rude!"

The Patriarch of the Xu family scolded loudly.

"It's so courageous, do you know what you are holding in your hand?"

Looking at the row of flintlock guns, Li Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly. If you don't take the path provided by God, there will be no way to break in from hell.

I am worried that I have no reason to deal with them, but they have prepared a reason for themselves.

Li Xiao waved his hand, and in an instant, the cavalry showed their guns one after another, aiming at the Xu family's group of people holding flintlock guns.

The guns in the hands of these cavalrymen are automatic rifles from the arsenal, which have a longer range, are more accurate, and have more bullets.

"Wait, be careful, don't hurt the innocent, and aim at the Xu family." Li Xiao ordered.

The cavalrymen nodded one after another. They practiced their spear skills in Beiping very well.

"What kind of gun are they holding?"

The head of the Xu family was sweating profusely when he saw this. Although he didn't know what they were holding, it was obviously more powerful than a flintlock.

However, his question was not answered, after all, this automatic rifle just appeared in Ming Dynasty.

"Don't shoot, I'll negotiate with that national teacher."

The head of the Xu family explained.

He didn't intend to really fight with the national teacher, but he just showed his tough posture and forced the opponent to retreat.

Unexpectedly, the national teacher didn't panic at all, so the head of the Xu family panicked.

However, as soon as he finished explaining, someone pulled the trigger.

Bang! !

With a gunshot, a horse among the cavalry on Li Xiao's side fell to the ground in a pool of blood. Fortunately, it missed the man but only the horse.

"Who fired the gun!" The head of the Xu family was furious.

He would never have imagined that for this conflict, the so-called 'Mr. Liang' Lan Bin's subordinates had exhausted their brains.

Without a fight, their plan would not be implemented.

Finally have a chance.

The person who shot was naturally Lan Bin's.

And the other side.

Li Xiao also showed anger, and waved his hands: "The Xu family violently resisted the law, wipe it out!"

In an instant, the cavalry came out in full force.

Gunfire broke out. (end of this chapter)
