When attacked and worn as a farmer's daughter-in-law

"Master You, are you willing?" Mo Zhixian and You Xunjian walked side by side, lightly pulling the reins and asking sideways.

"Lord Mo, didn't you see it too? We already knew that the Shen family's guards were strong. What is unexpected is that they even have cannons, and there are hundreds of them. That's not counting." Xinghuo Village Patrol."

"If the Shen family really wants to do something wrong, they will do it directly. The soldiers under me are not their opponents at all. As for the local forces, hehe, I can deal with you. If you really match up with the guards of the Shen family, it is purely a gift. The most important thing It is the Shen family who are decent people, even if they hand over power to others, they will not do anything to us, you see, even our positions have not been changed, what was before, is still the same now."

"That's true, but this Shen family is a true genius. After this experience, I can see it clearly. If the outside world is always peaceful, the Shen family will be a businessman, and there will be no unnecessary actions. When the troubled times enter, the Shen family will immediately take action." If you want to control your own destiny, you and I are forced to be tied to the Shen family's warship. Have you seen the dark face of the local gentry after seeing the Shen family's guards show their combat power? That is really gratifying, and they will also have a day of frustration. I didn't miss their faces before." Mo Zhixian had a strange expression on his face, some were gloating, and some were helpless at the sudden addition of a boss on his head.

……

Mozhi County and You Xunjian let the horses carry them forward slowly. The landowners and squires in Linshan County don't have such a leisurely heart now, and they rush back without exception, even the Yuan family is no exception.

Fang Tianlin didn't detain people. Originally, the local tyrants had the upper hand. Now that the official power is being gathered by the Shen family, coupled with the strength of the Shen family's guards, I'm not afraid of any changes from them.Now that there is chaos outside, even if the southwest is relatively safe for the time being, where can they go?People who leave their hometowns and be humble do not only refer to ordinary people, even powerful people cannot escape this rule.

As for the action, each family may have to weigh three points to see if it is worthwhile to do so.In the final analysis, these people are just gentry merchants, and it is too difficult to work together. The cooperation with the Shen family before was only driven by interests. If there is no such big interest to leverage, many of them may not be willing to take risks.

Why can a few govern the majority?The key is here.The more people there are, the more careful thoughts there are, and the ideas cannot be reached at all. In the turbulent age, there should not be too many people who only want a safe place.

Fang Tianlin didn’t overdo it. All the pigeons kept at home were released, and he began to closely monitor the actions of the brigade. Shoushan Village even took over with full power, and set up defenses at all entry trails. Sealed.

The local forces Fang Tianlin did not move, and the people were suddenly told that a new ruler had been replaced. Their hearts were in turmoil, and it was the time when they needed stability. It means that his mind is not so small.

"Tianlin, there are more people secretly giving gifts." Once Linshan County calmed down, Shen Jiahe also went out to help.

It is not easy to manage a county. Although the government affairs are still managed by Mozhi County, some important measures have to be reported to the Shen family, and the same is true for the inspectors.The county government funds and soldiers' food and pay had to be paid by the Shen family, so the imperial court probably had nothing to do with it. Of course, the Shen family couldn't spend money in vain, so the local taxes would naturally have to be handed over to them.

As far as this point is concerned, it is bound to touch the interests of many people. Fang Tianlin directly raised the salaries of officials. Although the salary is much less than before, life is much easier than before.Being greedy for money not only requires a dark heart, but also has to be fearful, but now there is no such worry at all, and life is not necessarily much worse than before.

Those old accounts from before were all written off, and Fang Tianlin did not pursue them, which gave the officials of Mozhi County a reassurance.After he cleared the accounts of the county government and the local army, Fang Tianlin immediately started to check the household registration.

In the past, there were many black households that he could ignore, but now he can't. The importance of population is unquestionable. Fang Tianlin must figure out how many people there are in his territory, so that he can arrange future actions.

In the past, the village head and the head of the village united with the villagers, and they could be deceived by the higher-ups, but now it doesn't work at all. When they see a team of officers and soldiers mixed with cavalry and infantry behind the errand servants, they are all scared.

Before this, Mozhi County issued a notice in advance, and the officers and soldiers accompanying the officials were just a deterrent to let the people understand that the orders issued by the Shen family this time were not child's play, and the villages could not tolerate perfunctory.

At this time, except for the necessary left-behind personnel, all the government officials were sent to various places. Linshan County is only so big in total. No matter how many black households there are, the total population cannot exceed one hundred thousand. Don't dare to make small moves, but within a few days, as long as the villages are registered, the population will be registered.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Tianlin issued a decree to abolish the tax on good people, and at the same time began to collect tax on slaves. This tax was not collected from slave households, but was paid by their masters.Fang Tianlin listed the detailed fee levels. The more slaves you have, the higher the tax the master will pay. When the number exceeds a certain limit, I'm sorry, ordinary people may not be able to afford it, so they have to obediently release them as good citizens or resell them to others.

Not only that, but Fang Tianlin also set a jaw-dropping policy, that is, to charge all masters for taking concubines. No matter who they are, they can pay the money, and it is the same as the servant Ding tax. The more, the heavier the burden.

What are you talking about, if you can't pay the money, you don't need to go to the government office to make a register for the concubine, and just keep it casually?I'm sorry, but there's another article that follows, unless the children of these concubines who are not officially recognized are adopted by the registered wives and concubines, they will lose their right of inheritance. For those who climbed up, this is a disaster. This policy is equivalent to restricting their promotion channels.He has no official status, and his descendants are not protected by the law. This can stop many people from relying on their bodies to get ahead.

It's not that Fang Tianlin is ruthless, and he only wants to hold on to these weak people, but that the local gentry is still a big force at present, and if they are really pushed, they may jump over the wall in a hurry and use money to limit the number of concubines, which is already restraining in disguise Since they can't move these people directly, the other side naturally can't let them go, and they can always curb the ever-expanding desires of powerful lords with a two-pronged approach.

In addition, the number of land properties under each person's name is also handled in the same way as the above two, so as to avoid a miserable situation where a family has thousands of hectares of fertile land, but the people have no land to cultivate.There are similar regulations for real estate and shops, but the conditions are much relaxed, but there are no restrictions on industries, that is, workshops, etc. for the time being.

Fang Tianlin promulgated this decree for one purpose, that is, to reduce the number of people who eat and wait to die, and do not work in production. If you want to live a good life, you must work harder.

Of course, these policies are only for the future, and Fang Tianlin will not force them to implement the new policies.Even so, those with vested interests in Linshan County were also full of complaints.

Helpless, the New Deal will benefit more people, and with the support of the Shen family, most of the good people who are not tenants are on the side of the Shen family.It would be difficult for the local gentry to instigate rebellion, not to mention falling out with the Shen family would not benefit them, although it would add trouble to the Shen family, their losses would only be greater.Even if the internal opinions could not be reached, how could they have the confidence to oppose the Shen family?

Mozhi County exclaimed in disbelief when he saw the unexpected policies being carried out so smoothly.

Ding Zhongqiu was also in a trance. In his opinion, the local forces should try their best to oppose these policies. As a result, it ended with a lot of thunder and rain, and it was over!It was the first time he had seen such a miraculous thing at this age.

You know, even if the imperial court wants to reform, how can there be a lot of resistance?Even the one on the dragon chair can't do whatever he wants. After careful consideration, the two found that the Shen family's deterrence was too high. The artillery fire that they saw on the school field that time caused destructive damage. It was too shocking, even if the masters of the various families were not angry in their hearts, they did not dare to make big moves on the surface, but if they were convinced, that would be impossible.

How to eliminate their resentment depends on the ability of the Shen family.It is easy to conquer the country, but it is not so easy to secure a stable position. Even in a small Linshan County, if no one in the Shen family is in charge of government affairs, they will be pulled down sooner or later.

Fang Tianlin's action this time was extremely swift, no one knew about it except Shen Jiahe, and even the rest of the Shen family were kept in the dark.

When Mr. Shen and others learned the news that the Shen family had won Linshan County, they were all terrified, their hearts were pounding, they couldn't calm down for a long time, and their head was dizzy all the time.

They knew that Fang Tianlin was brave, but they didn't expect him to be so bold. If there was a mistake in the process, the Shen family would be ruined.However, the third son and his wife were not in the valley at this time, and Mr. Shen didn't even have a place to ask, so he had to call the three grandsons in front of him to make indirect remarks, but he didn't know what to ask.

Mr. Shen had nothing to do, he was a little restless, and he was absent-minded about dealing with affairs in the valley, so he had to put off all the unimportant things for a few days. Think seven and eight.

After implementing the New Deal and placing his own people in key positions, except for recruiting soldiers, Fang Tianlin no longer made any big moves.At present, the most important thing is to stabilize the internal affairs. This matter is led by Mozhi County, supervised by Shen Jiahe, and Fang Tianlin puts all his attention on the training.

With such a big movement in the Shen family, it is inevitable that news leaks out, but at this time, no one has the ability to make an idea of ​​Linshan County.

The guards at the border gate were too busy guarding the gate and had no time to withdraw, not to mention that Mr. Su didn't know what his attitude was. Even if General Gao wanted to move, he had to weigh it.However, the military forces in other states and counties are powerless. Everyone does their own thing. Now no one obeys anyone. If it was before, it will be fine. Now Linshan County has the Shoushan Village checkpoint, and the defense capability has been greatly improved. can covet.
