King’s Kingdom

Chapter 98: return to heart

After a few days of farming, it turns out that it is a more efficient way to concentrate resources to cultivate the land, and the progress of the cultivation of the land is about 20% faster than the usual single-person household.

But unfortunately, this system cannot be implemented in the twelve southern counties. Although the kingdom has established a stable rule there, its ability to control the grassroots needs to be improved.

Only one-fifth of the villages scattered in the fields are assigned to village officials, and the rest of the villages still maintain their autonomy. There is no leader to implement the decree. This system cannot be implemented.

Moreover, this approach is not a long-term solution. Theodosius only intends to implement it for one year this year, and next year he will disband the so-called production brigade.

It is indisputable whether such a production system is good or not, and it is indisputable that resources are concentrated to do big things, but in fact this system is very dependent on the environment.

The soil for other previous lives to implement this system is that all land is nationalized. Although farmers still operate planting, they have become workers in essence. They are agricultural workers at most. It is completely different from the small peasant economy, which is owned by itself.

On the other hand, the Kingdom of Rhine is not a state-owned land. The residents have their own land, and the amount of land owned by each family varies according to the family status.

Everyone works together. Your family has 200 acres of land, and mine only has 100 acres of land. We have to do the same amount of work. It’s okay after a year, but if this continues, it will inevitably lead to boycotts and riots. .

This has nothing to do with the obedience or rebelliousness of the residents. It is the nature of all living things that people do not suffer from the few but suffer from inequality. You cannot ask for the same amount of labor, and some people will gain more. This will definitely lead to large-scale dissatisfied.

Dissatisfaction is followed by resistance, and if people do not see the hope of resistance, they will lie down, and they will lose the hope of working hard.

farming? As long as there is enough to eat, why do I need multiple crops? I can't finish the food, so why should I work so hard and get the least return?

This will greatly hurt the feelings of the residents of the Lanyin Kingdom, and at the same time, the recognition of the royal family will decline.

It is true that Theodosius could enlist in the army to gain glory and wealth as a temptation, allowing them to continue to cultivate more land for meat and weapons, forming an involution, but this is undoubtedly buried under the throne of the Ortban family. A huge powder keg.

When the class is more solidified, even this kind of introversion will not be able to arouse the laborers' desire for labor, and the country will undoubtedly become weaker and weaker. Resistance is bound to happen.

Of course, the premise of all of this is that the expansion of the Lanin Kingdom stops.

After the residents of the country stop working, the government can also obtain labor through immigration, and the residents of the country will either roll in with these foreigners to form brutal competition to promote production, or exterminate.

There are so many hidden dangers buried in a small production system. Although many of the inferences are unfounded, Theodosius still hopes to avoid it. In the final analysis, he is also very disgusted with such unfairness, even if he is the king. unfair.

The collective is more just an expedient measure. Theodosius' idea is to get over this year's labor shortage first.

Until next year, the Lanyin Kingdom, whose population has greatly increased, will be able to transfer people from the south to cultivate the sparsely populated land in the north.

What's more, under the years of war, the refugees and slaves produced can be bought at low prices to enrich the population of the Lanyin Kingdom.

Although the population of the Lanyin Kingdom has ballooned to 1.7 million due to its control of the twelve southern counties, it is still too small for this 650,000 square kilometers of land.

Recently, the weather in the Kingdom of Lanyin has been very good, as if to cooperate with the big spring ploughing. Even the rain happened at night, which did not affect the cultivation.

The trees began to shoot out buds, and all kinds of animals also entered the mating season. The fields of the Lanyin Kingdom were in full swing.

The peasants performed their respective duties under the deployment of officials. The men led the bulls and helped the plows in the fields, cut off the sprouting weeds with hoes, and the women sowed seeds into the pits.

With the smoke from the cooking, the old woman could not bear the heavy physical labor, so she stayed at home to prepare meals for the working people.

For a time, the fields of the entire seven northern counties were being cultivated at an extremely fast pace. According to the current progress, all the work could be completed in early June, just in time for the tail of spring ploughing, allowing the crops to mature in October.

Second, in the twelve counties in the south, the farmers who have just been allocated the land are looking forward to sowing the precious seeds, which is their entire income for the next year.

These peasants who have been allocated more than 100 acres of land by the benevolent gentleman are full of joy, and they know that their good days are coming.

Although many people have run out of food, the Lanyin government has provided them with low-interest loans, which only need to pay 2% interest every year. Kilogram.

This kind of benevolent government made the southern peasants even more grateful to the Lanyin government and their king~www.readwn.com~ What resistance and anxiety about the strange monarch disappeared completely in their hearts.

With a longing for a better life in the future, the situation in the twelve southern counties has completely stabilized. All the fish that slipped through the net when the squires were removed were reported by citizens and farmers from all over the country and became prisoners again.

Poetry about Theodosius once again exploded. The bard used his own voice to praise such acts of benevolence and righteousness. legend.

Theodosius was now sitting on a chair in the training ground. The sound of swords clashing in the field kept ringing, and the cheers around him were even more earth-shattering.

At this time, Ivar was wearing a leather armor, holding a sword and shield, fighting with all his strength against the opponent in front of him.

The one who is fighting against him is the most powerful one among the iron-clad paladins, Sir Redwin.

Although Ivar was conquered by Theodosius before, he was not convinced by others, so he challenged the iron-clad paladins, who were recognized as the strongest force of the king, many times.

However, although he prides himself on being brave, his many challenges to the Iron Armored Paladins all ended in defeat. Even the one with the lowest combat power among them is not something he can challenge.

He didn't agree with this, because he quickly understood why this group of people was so strong, and at the same time, he was looking forward to the day when he was bestowed by God.

Now, Theodosius gave them the places of heavy infantry, and Ivar, who received the "God's gift", was suddenly bursting with self-confidence, and immediately challenged Sir Ledwin, the strongest among the iron-clad paladins.

"This time, I will definitely beat you!" Ivar said to the opponent in front of him with a little breath.
