Chapter 791
The new policy of the Song Dynasty is in full swing in Huaizhou and Yangzhou. For the implementation of the new policy, Lu Heng sent Hebei Zhenjia, Jingzhou Kuaijia, Xuzhou Mijia, Huainan Lujia, Yangzhou Gu, Zhang and Zhu, Jingnan and Maer All the Patriarchs of the Qin Family and the Yizhou Qin Family were invited to Shouchun for a gathering.

It can be said that the above-mentioned aristocratic families under the rule of the Song Dynasty are the representatives of the aristocratic families with the most land in the local area. The land of these aristocratic families accounts for nearly [-]% of the existing land in the Song Dynasty. It can be seen how powerful these aristocratic families are.

This is not counting the aristocratic families that were not under Lu Heng's rule, such as Hongnong Yang's family, Xiliang Ma's family, Hanoi Wei's family, etc. Back then, Cao Cao's relocation of the population and the destruction of the Yuan family made Lu Heng a lot easier. You must know that Hebei and Yuzhou are aristocratic families. A place full of trees.

But now that one has been wiped out and the other has been relocated, Lu Heng's New Deal has no resistance.

Fortunately, under Lu Heng's rule, these families were all broken down one by one due to various reasons. For example, the Zhen family in Xuzhou and the Lu family in Huainan, both of which were enemies of the Song Dynasty, one supported Liu Bei and the other supported Sun Ce. After being confiscated by Song Dynasty, only a few contacts are left in his strength.

Another example is that the three Yangzhou families, the Zhen family in Hebei, and the Jingnan family were tied to the warships of the Song Dynasty under Lu Heng's various measures. Now it is impossible to get off the ship. The reason why they brought the Kuai family, the Qin family, and the Ma family People serve one purpose, to reduce resistance to the New Deal.

In the banquet hall of the Shouchun Palace, the emperor of the Song Dynasty sat high, and in the lower hall sat Lu Jun, Zhen Yao, Kuai Liang, Mi Wei, Lu Su, Gu Yong, Zhang Yun, Zhu Tao, Fang La, Ma Rui, and Qin Mi. It was the head of a family at the banquet.

You read that right after Mi Zhu's death, Mi Wei inherited the Mi family, but today's Mi family is not the same as the previous Mi family. Ma Rui is a Jingnan Ma family, just like the Jiangdong Zhu family, mainly engaged in shipbuilding and transportation. , and Qin Mi is the Qin family in Yizhou that can be said to have monopolized the Shu brocade family.

Today, the identities of these people are not the leaders of Jinyiwei, the counselors of the Military Aircraft Department, the Duke of Yingming, the senior officials of the Twelve Departments, etc., but just the heads of the family.

After drinking for three rounds, Lu Heng looked at the heat and said calmly: "Everyone, the New Deal is in full swing, and the land in Huaizhou has been measured. I invite you to a banquet today to hope that you can support the New Deal. Of course, the Song Dynasty will not take everyone for nothing. All the land will use the royal property to cooperate with you in exchange for sufficient profits, and Brother Zhen should know a lot about it, so you can speak freely if you have any questions!"

"Report to the official family! The Fang family is looking forward to your Majesty's lead. They have handed over all the land deeds that day and now the Fang family fully supports the New Deal. His Majesty agrees that the Fang family's lacquerware monopoly has official qualifications. The Fang family is already grateful and does not ask for more!" Fang La The first one to come out and do Fang Hou's instructions perfectly.

Lu Heng looked at Fang La below with some emotion. He never thought that Fang La, one of the four bandits, would be willing to be the sharp knife of Song Dynasty. Who would have thought of that?
The lacquer ware monopoly that Fang La mentioned here was the reciprocation given by Lu Heng after Fang Hou presented the land deed. Lu Heng knew that the Fang family started with lacquer ware, so he allowed to cooperate with the royal family to promote the lacquer ware to the whole country as a government-run qualification and then share the profits.

Seemingly breaking Fangla's monopoly position in Jingnan, it is actually the leading enterprise in the circulation of the entire Song Dynasty. It is clear at a glance which one is higher and which is lower. As long as Lu Heng has one request to ensure the quality of lacquerware, otherwise Fang's family will lose this treatment.

Similar is the grain of the Zhen family in Hebei, which is the designated supplier of official grain in the northern part of the Song Dynasty. The profits can be imagined, and after the grain monopoly, only the royal family and the Zhen family are eligible to sell Liang!

Sure enough, the Zhen family, who had received huge benefits, immediately stood up and said: "The Zhen family is willing to donate all the land deeds to support the New Deal!"

"Brother Yao said seriously that the Zhen family is an important grain merchant in the north. Among them, the plowing field will be measured and clearly used by the Zhen family when enthroned and compiled. Of course, all the tenants and slave households will naturally be released and leased from the Song government. Among them I will make up for the loss to the Zhen family."

"Your Majesty is serious! Your Majesty the Zhen family has followed suit!" Zhen Yao instantly calculated the pros and cons. Although he would lose a lot of tenants and farmland income, the loss was nothing compared to the government-run grain and grass monopoly. What's more, the industrial profits that the emperor said to make up for the losses will never be less!
The two giants of the Fang family and the Zhen family followed the lead of the emperor Lu Heng, so the pressure was naturally placed on the remaining powerful family heads such as Kuai Liang, Ma Rui, Qin Mi, and the "down and out" like Lu Su and Mi Wei. Nothing happened.

"The Ma family is willing to do the work of dogs and horses for His Majesty." Ma Rui thought for a while and immediately expressed his opinion. The energy of the Ma family here is actually better than that of the poor, so he made a decision very quickly.

It is very likely that His Majesty will reward you much more than these fields!
It was Kuai Liang and Qin Mi who were really thinking about the pros and cons. The Kuai family was originally the best family in Jingbei, and after the Cai family chose the wrong team, it became the number one family in Jingzhou!

In addition, the Qin family is taking the monopoly route. The best Shu brocade in Sichuan comes from the Qin family. The Qin family has a large number of sericulture workers, and most of the raw materials are controlled by the Qin family.

Therefore, it is the most difficult to recover the land in the hands of these two families.

"Shu brocade in central Sichuan is a must, we can consider government-run monopoly, and at the same time, the tax of Qin Family Shu brocade for foreign trade can be reduced by [-]%.

The Kuai family in Jingzhou can choose to run a salt and sugar monopoly, and at the same time, Dajiang Transportation can also be jointly contracted with the government. "

For the Kuai family and the Qin family, Lu Heng did not make too many big cakes and directly exchanged benefits. In fact, the Kuai family has already lost a lot of the blessing land entrusted to Liu Bei.

If it was the land of Kuai's family during Liu Biao's period, the price Lu Heng wanted to take back would be more than that.

It is also currently the best way to replace land with profit. Random distribution of so many commercial channels in the Song Dynasty is the most profitable stage of a monopoly industry.

This is much better than forcibly expropriating the land, and it will not generate a rebellious heart. It is simply because the entire chain of interests is tied to the warship of Song Dynasty.

There are also two down-and-out families called Lu Su and Mi Wei, just to use the remaining influence of the two to stimulate a wave. Of course, because there is not much effort, the benefits will not be much.

"The subordinates are willing to donate all the land to support the New Deal." Kuai Liang nodded and agreed after discussing the advantages and disadvantages. Apart from the benefits that Lu Heng gave, Kuai Liang believed that Lu Heng would also trust the Kuai family more politically.

"The Qin family is willing to support the New Deal!" Seeing that everyone agrees, Qin Mi no longer hesitates, because it is normal for this person to be hesitant because he doesn't know Da Song's business model not long after he joined.

With all the largest aristocratic families in the Song Dynasty willing to cooperate with the New Deal, it can be said that the biggest stubborn stone on the road to the New Deal has been cleared.

If there are still some small stones, I believe they can't make any big waves.
