Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 246
Li Ru's mobility is undoubtedly top-notch. After getting Fei Qian's iron card, he immediately started to implement it...

At a time when the Son of Heaven has been a myth for hundreds of years, the certificates issued in the name of the Son of Han are undoubtedly sacred and have a high degree of credibility.

Especially on the iron plate, the vividly depicted patterns are even more attractive to those illiterate farmers.

What are ordinary people looking for?
Everything is fully reflected in the pattern on the iron plate.

This long-awaited thing, which my ancestors have devoted their entire lives to, has no way of getting it. Now they only need to move to Guanzhong, which is six hundred miles away, and it will become a reality!
The tax and service system that was distributed to grassroots farmers in the Han Dynasty was actually very terrible.Usually, an ordinary self-cultivator needs to pay money and grain to the Han Dynasty state in three aspects:

One is the tax, which is not too high. In the early Han Dynasty, the tax was set at [-], and after Emperor Jing, it was set to [-] at the [-]th. It has been used until now, that is, the land is owned by the state, and the tax must be paid when the land is produced, but This tax is really not high...

The second is to calculate the tax. Unlike the light rent tax, the calculation of the tax has been continuously increasing.All people, as long as they are 15 to 56 years old, must pay "burden money", 120 yuan per person is a "calculation", which is used as a fee for the management of the treasury.For example, merchants and slave cards are counted twice; women who are not married at the age of 15-30 are counted five times.

But don't think that you don't need to pay money if you are young. People from 7 to 14 years old will pay 20 yuan per person per year...

The third is corvee service, the most common one being border guard service, which means that there must be three days in a year to go to the border for free.

For the population who themselves live on the edge of the border, this kind of corvee is not a big deal, but just imagine a farmer far away in Jingxiang asking him to bring his own food and weapons, and to pay for his own travel expenses to Bingzhou, or even Youzhou and Liangzhou go to the border for three days and come back...

So it is basically unrealistic, so there is a "over-change" money for the garrison, 300 coins a year...

In addition, there are temporary "military transfers", "mouth restraints", etc., so in fact, it is very difficult for the owner-peasants to work hard on their own land to achieve a balance of income and expenditure for the entire family.

Chao Cuo's "On Gui Sushu": "...Nowadays, in a family of five farmers, there are no fewer than two servants, and those who can cultivate are no more than a hundred mu, and the harvest of a hundred mu is no more than a hundred stones... Spring can't escape the wind and dust, and summer can't To avoid the heat, not to avoid the rain in the autumn, not to avoid the cold and freezing in the winter... so much hard work, yet still be plagued by floods and droughts... So there are those who sell their fields and houses, and sell off their children and grandchildren to pay off their debts..."

Therefore, in fact, at the end of the Han Dynasty, a large number of lands were annexed. The most fundamental reason was that these self-cultivating farmers living at the bottom, perhaps helpless, or took the initiative to become powerful vassals, resulting in a further reduction in the taxes that could have been collected. Adding taxes has led to the bankruptcy of the remaining farmers, a vicious circle...

So now, in the Heluo area, there are not many so-called self-cultivating farmers with a family of five who can maintain their own lives. Most of them are vassals in the countryside, under the local gentry, they have become hermits...

Some have even been working for these rural tyrants and gentry for generations.

So one can imagine the mixed feelings of restlessness, fear and joy when this impoverished and penniless peasant household suddenly had such an opportunity to obtain such attractive wealth in a blink of an eye.

This kind of emotion is like a spreading plague, and it has infected the surrounding areas of Luoyang in a blink of an eye. The most affected is Hongnong County, which is located on the edge of Luoyang.

Nowadays, most of the fertile land in Hongnong County is either under the name of the Hongnong Yang family, or they are vassals of other gentry tycoons related to the Yang family, so when Li Ru began to promote the iron card of Feiqian At the time of the plan, the entire Yang family seemed to have suffered a major earthquake, and even some old guys who were sitting at home watching the changes in the situation were shaken out...

With a wry smile, Yang Biao put an iron plate on the table and gently pushed it in front of Yuan Kai.

"This is five cauldron cooking!" Yuan Kai also rarely expressed his attitude clearly, perhaps because the Yang family and the Yuan family have the same interests, or because this move hurts too much, "Li Ru, a traitor ! Really hateful!"

Although Feiqian has just been awarded the title of Minister of the Left Office, most people think that this is Dong Zhuo's move to treat Cai Yong preferentially. In addition, Dong Zhuo has also promoted many rural nobles recently, such as Xun Shuang. Yijie Baiding was promoted to Sikong of the third company, so for the time being, he didn't pay much attention to Fei Qian, a small official with a size of four hundred shi.

A group of people, including Yuan Kui and Yang Biao, still believe that the introduction of a policy is the work of Li Ru.

Yang Biao also gritted his teeth and said: "This move is to break our foundation! It's a poisonous plan!" This time Yang Biao came to Yuan Kai specifically for the purpose of seeking cooperation with the Yuan family. If the Nongyang family is allowed to develop, even if the Hongnong Yang family can stay in Sili, what's the point without the farmers?
Could it be that the pampered old man of the Yang family also went to the fields to do farm work?Even if you go to other places to absorb refugees, one is that there is not enough time, and if you can't catch up with the spring plowing, it will be abandoned for at least a year; second, what if these refugees are tempted again?Don't you make wedding dresses for others?
So Yang wanted to solve the current problem once and for all.Now the elders of the Yang family are blocking Yang Biao's door, asking Yang Biao to solve the problem, otherwise...

Yang Biao is also a little regretful, if he had known, he would not have resigned so early.Originally thought that he took the lead to withdraw most of the officials from the Heluo area, which was tantamount to drawing salary from the bottom of the pot for moving the capital, which would inevitably force Dong Zhuo and Li Ru to slow down and struggle. One move, it was like a knife slashing at the vital point of the Yang family, the pain was unbearable.

Now Yang Biao came to seek help from the Yuan family who was still in the officialdom. In order not to let Dong Zhuo find out, he even went into Yuan's mansion through the side door through Jianqu without hesitation.

Yuan Kai held the iron plate and looked at it. The appearance that was officially launched is no longer the original simple appearance. Not only are there more complicated pattern decorations on the edges, but it is obviously slightly modified and polished after pouring the mold, and it is still in the original blank. The explanatory text and Henan Yin's big seal are engraved on the back, which is tantamount to guaranteeing the iron plate in the name of the official.

Moreover, the distribution of this iron plate has completely bypassed the low-level officials of Yuan Yang and other factions. All of them were registered and distributed by the military scribes in Xiliang, and they couldn't find the target if they tried to do something...

Yuan Kui put the iron plate on the table, raised his palm, and slashed at the words on the iron plate like a knife, saying: "The only way out now is to draw from the bottom of the pot..."

　It rains in the morning, it’s as cold as winter, and the sun comes out in the afternoon, turning into summer in seconds... Some people say that the weather in Chongzuo is like that of a Vietnamese girl, but I don’t know why...
