Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

Emperor Chongzhen said: "One year? Two years? Then the performance of labor determines the size of the land they allocate?"

After thinking about it, there was still no good solution, so Emperor Chongzhen simply ordered: "Let's take down this restaurant first, and then send Wen Tiren and Guo Yunhou over."

Xu Xianchun's movements were quick, Jin Yiwei wanted to clear a restaurant without any difficulty.

As for the speed with which Wang Chengen ordered people to find Wen Tiren and Guo Yunhou, it was not so fast - it took not a little time to rush from the offices of various cabinet ministries to this restaurant not far from Shuntian Mansion.

Moreover, Wen Tiren and Guo Yunhou were not as fast as Xu Xianchun, so the speed was naturally slower.

When the two arrived at the restaurant, the table of food and drink had been rearranged, and the original table had been removed.

After paying respects to Emperor Chongzhen, Emperor Chongzhen pointed to the chair and said, "Sit down, let's discuss things while eating."

In fact, among the people present, except for Emperor Chongzhen, the rest of the people didn't like this meal very much - eating with the emperor is very stressful!

Do you want to pick up your favorite dish?Doesn't it mean not giving the emperor face?Can I toast the emperor when I want to drink?Will it be considered as deliberately drunk the emperor?

In short, eating with other people is all kinds of comfort, but eating with the emperor is all kinds of awkward.

Even Emperor Chongzhen felt awkward—eating with these ministers was far less casual than eating together when leading troops on an expedition.

Seeing the swaying ministers, they didn't have any appetite. Emperor Chongzhen also ordered people to remove the banquet after taking a few mouthfuls, and brought the tea back up again.

After drinking several cups of tea in the silent silence, Emperor Chongzhen said, "Tell me, what should the people outside do?"

Chapter 6 and Six

It's not that Emperor Chongzhen thought of assigning these people to the vassal princes of the clan, and let them follow the vassal kings to go to sea to grab the territory, and spread branches and leaves everywhere.

At that time, the land will naturally have these vassals to worry about, and these people will no longer be homeless, and the problem will be solved.

But after thinking about it for a long time, Emperor Chongzhen gave up this tempting idea.

This is nearly ten million people. Although it is said that there are many vassal kings in Ming Dynasty, after being allocated to each vassal king, the people will still appear to be insufficient, but the current Daming is even more short of manpower!

More importantly, it doesn't matter whether you get these people to repair the railway or do other jobs. If the vassal kings want to recruit people, they have to pay a higher price-after all, the Ming court is in the hearts of the people. The reliability is much higher than those of the vassals.

Wen Tiren, Guo Yunhou, and others have long held high positions in the imperial court, which one is not a thousand-year-old fox, and a novice like Emperor Chongzhen can basically make a good guess with just one guess.

Of course, Emperor Chongzhen often didn't play cards according to the routine, and even if he guessed it in many cases, it was useless.

Facing Emperor Chongzhen's question, Wen Tiren winked at Hong Chengchou quietly - what's the matter?Let me talk about it first?

Hong Chengchou looked at his nose, nose, and mind, and after shaking his head, he didn't say a word, making Wen Siren hate in his heart.

Not knowing what Emperor Chongzhen was thinking, and having no time to think about it, Wen Tiren simply cupped his hands and asked, "I don't know what His Majesty means?"

Emperor Chongzhen said: "What I mean is that the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Railways, and the Ministry of Communications should recruit these people to dredge rivers and bridges, build railways, etc.

It's just that Hong Aiqing also said just now that these people have been waiting for the court to allocate land, otherwise they would rather work here than work on the construction site. "

Wen Tiren and Guo Yunhou understood the meaning of elegance by hearing the string song, and almost instantly understood Emperor Chongzhen's intention of summoning the two of them.

After thinking for a while, Wen Tirencai said: "Now in the northeast of my Ming Dynasty, there are Liaodong, Nuergandusi, and North Korea; in the north, there are Leshi Grassland; in the west, there are Duogansi and Wusizang; Ryukyu.

Every place immigrates millions, and these lands will be digested, which is not a big problem.

As for wanting these people to go to work first and then immigrate, it is actually not a big problem, as long as the court can let the people believe and understand the land they will be allocated in the future, these are actually not too big of a problem. "

Emperor Chongzhen turned his attention to Guo Yunhou: "What do you think of Guo Aiqing?"

Guo Yunhou thought it over and said: "Your Majesty Qizuo, I agree with Lord Wen's statement. Especially in North Korea and Ryukyu, since Your Majesty wants to move the people from these two places, the vacated land will definitely need my Ming Dynasty. of the people to replenish."

After the Emperor Chongzhen hummed, he continued to ask: "If the land, furniture, cattle and other things they will allocate in the future are linked to the work on the construction site, the more labor will get more, how about it?"

Wen Tiren directly objected: "Your Majesty, I think it is absolutely impossible!"

Emperor Chongzhen was a little curious now—is it normal to work too much?

After sorting out his thoughts, Wen Tiren continued, "Your Majesty, first think about the Leshi Grassland, Duogansi, Wusizang and other places.

It is normal for these places to have a lot of land and few people. If the people work more and get more money, each person will be allocated hundreds of acres of land?

Leaving aside the question of whether the land is enough to distribute, if it is enough, there will still not be many people in these places by then, how is it different from now? "

Emperor Chongzhen was a little tangled and said: "What if the people are just messing around like those who were originally out of corvee?"

Wen Tiren said: "Your Majesty Qi Zuo, it is better to work less and get less than to work more and get more!

When the common people go to work, if they don’t do well, they can deduct deductions from the land, farm tools, and cattle, or they can pay more wages if they do well, but this land can’t work more and get more! "

Emperor Chongzhen hummed, and then he was a little stunned.

Indeed, other things are easy to talk about, but land is something that absolutely cannot work harder, otherwise, who knows when will such a large land be filled with people.

Don't think that the people of the Ming Dynasty just have to have children when they have nothing to do - they have to have enough conditions to take care of and support them!

If these places are still sparsely populated because of more work and more land, then the living conditions will be much worse than the current Daming.

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but envy his sons—like His Majesty Yang Er, he wanted to finish everything in decades, and these little bastards would pick up ready-made ones in the future. Happy!

But I don't worry if I don't understand the big framework!

If he becomes a prodigal, the good situation he has worked so hard to create will come to an end—and according to the pissing nature of the civil servants, there is a great possibility that he will let himself go after his death!

I was thinking wildly in my heart, but suddenly I heard a noise from downstairs, and the emperor Chongzhen didn't know where he had strayed, and his thoughts were pulled back.

Turning to look downstairs, I saw a few guys dressed in rich and noble families talking nonsense: "Listen up! Those who follow my prince to build a country overseas will each be given a hundred acres of land! Give seeds, farm tools, and cattle!

In addition, there is a settling fee of ten taels of silver per person!Twelve per person!Twelve taels of silver that you have never seen in your life! "

Mamai batch!The business grabbers are here!

No need to look any further, Emperor Chongzhen will know what's going on with these bastards - it must be the lackeys of those vassal kings who came to recruit the people!

His mother, these bastards put up a memorial and planned to replace their fiefdoms to go overseas. After hearing Xu Xianchun's return, they were still a little reluctant, so they came to poach their own corners!

The unhappy Emperor Chongzhen was about to close the door and let Xu Xianchun go to chase away people, when someone among the common people suddenly asked loudly: "Is a baby in confinement count?"

I don't know which palace's steward said loudly: "Even if you come out alive before you go to sea, it's still counted! It's also ten taels of silver!"

There was a roar of laughter from the common people, but everyone was a little bit moved - those who were assigned by the court to go to sea under these vassal kings were ten taels of silver, and those who went with these vassal kings by themselves were also ten taels of silver, it seemed that there was no difference ?

And it is also given a hundred acres of land, and it is also given seeds, farm tools and cattle. If you take the initiative to go, you should be regarded as the direct line of the palace, right?

Emperor Chongzhen suddenly didn't want to close the door and let Xu Xianchun go - these guys are quite interesting, why don't we see how they play first.

Emperor Chongzhen was thinking about it, when he heard another voice from downstairs: "Those who are willing to follow the prince, register here with the household registration booklet, and then wait for the prince to arrange a place for you!"
