Chapter 310 Schrödinger's Public Field
In Zhao Kaishan's ruled area, the land that was conquered was very particular.

Before the war, the local economic ecology was partly dominated by landlords and gentry, partly by Mengan Moke households, and partly by civilian farmers under the management of the government.

This structural model barely maintains a three-way balance.

After the war, everyone expelled the Mengan Moke households, and this part of the land was vacated.

In the midst of war, landlords, squires, and common people, peasants, will inevitably suffer some losses. In the chaotic army, swords and swords have no eyes, and whoever dies can only admit that they are unlucky.

So another part of the land was vacated.

The two parts of the land together are the spoils of the Restoration Army.

For these spoils, Zhao Kaishan didn't care about how to divide them at first, he just did it according to very primitive conventions, and whoever took it would go to whoever got it.

You fight for you, I fight for me, we don't owe each other, you continue to obey my orders, and I won't give you anything extra, just like this.

Not only other generals, but Zhao Kaishan himself will happily take the lead in seizing land, farms, and tenants, and his food is quite ferocious.

Not only Zhao Kaishan himself, but the rest of the Zhao family also rushed to seize the land.

During this process, the entire Zhao family, who had benefited from the uprising, expanded the amount of land owned by them to more than [-] mu, and the number of tenants also multiplied several times.

Later, when the uprising was on the right track, Su Yonglin believed that this was not a normal phenomenon, and believed that the Liberation Army should not do this kind of bandit-like thing, so he persuaded Zhao Kaishan not to do this, or he would bring the Liberation Army into the ditch sooner or later.

Zhao Kaishan thought about it for a while and felt that it made sense, so under the auspices of Su Yonglin, Zhao Kaishan promulgated a public land system in the area ruled by the Restoration Army.

The meaning is very simple. The land that is taken down is all public land, and no one can occupy it at will, but after the war, full statistics must be made, and then the leaders of the uprising will distribute it uniformly according to everyone's military exploits.

Those who have made great achievements will get more, and those who have made lesser achievements will get less.

There is an upper limit on the amount of land that each person who makes meritorious deeds can get.

In this way, after the settlement of the meritorious land is completed, there will still be a part of the land remaining in the public land account, and this part of the land will be used as the unit of hukou to calculate the number of labor force and grant it to the civilians who have been displaced during the war.

Give them land, let them farm, let them live and work in peace and contentment, exempt them from taxes for a certain period of time, encourage them to engage in agricultural production, and then pay taxes to become loyal supporters of the Restoration Army.

In this way, the economic order in the area under the rule of the Restoration Army can be slowly established.

This is a system designed by Su Yonglin for Zhao Kaishan according to the actual situation of the Restoration Army at that time. It not only meets the needs of the meritorious people, but also safeguards the interests of the people at the bottom to a certain extent, so that everyone can share the dividends of the uprising.

If it can continue to operate, then it is very meaningful for the advancement of the Restoration Army.

It's a pity that it didn't work out. Not long after this system was formulated, Su Yonglin and Sun Ziyi were pushed out by Zhao Kaishan and went out to develop independently.

So from the very beginning, this system was just an appearance, an empty shell, and no actual interior.

There is a system, no one wants to implement it, and no one wants to actually abide by it.

Who is willing to use a knife against themselves and cut flesh from themselves for others to eat?

Such people are either running a Ponzi scheme or a proletarian revolutionary.

Zhao Kaishan and others are neither, they are just simple landlords who are only interested in land and power, and of course they will not operate on themselves.

After the uprising, Zhao Kaishan naturally took no offense to the local landlords and squires, and even brought in those who helped, so that everyone could share the benefits occupied by the fierce security.

The people at the bottom are completely ignored, and being able to enter the army as a soldier to eat food is already the best treatment for them.

And sometimes people’s desires are endless. If there are not enough public land to fill their desires, they need to take part of the land of the common people to satisfy their own desires.

Anyway, their thinking is very outdated. Of course, I have the final say on the territory I have conquered. I have the final say in everything.

It's hard to say the means used.

Zhao Kaishan himself needs the personal allegiance to him generated by the local forces driven by such interests to expand their forces and military strength, so turn a blind eye to this situation and don't care.

Therefore, under the public land system, the granting of land, which could have protected the interests of the bottom people to a certain extent, became a gimmick.

You can see it, you can't get it.

The number of public fields in the accounts of the Restoration Army is very large, but they only exist in the accounts. It is written in black and white. When you look at it, you can't see it, and it has become Schrödinger's public fields.

The landless people stared at the land, but there were only two ways for them, either to flee, or to enter the Restoration Army to serve as soldiers.

Don't even think about the land.

Apart from the implementation of the New Rural Policy in the areas under Su Yonglin's control, small-scale land reforms, and protection of the interests of the peasants, the uprising dividends generated during the entire uprising were all carved up by the top and middle levels of the Restoration Army.

The top eats meat, the middle eats soup, and the bottom can't even eat a bit of crumbs.

Among them, the most rewarding uprising was the Liberation Army military group represented by the Zhao family who had obtained military merit, followed by the local landlords and squires who helped out.

As a result, a large amount of land fell into the hands of the top officials of the Restoration Army and the landowners and gentry. They obtained larger-scale land wealth through the uprising, their personal property expanded rapidly, and their personal happiness was significantly improved.

However, the division between the top and the grassroots of the Restoration Army has also become more serious.

Unless the soldiers who came from the common people were lucky, they made military achievements and were promoted to officers, and they could get a little bit of leftovers, and the rest could only shed blood and tears but get nothing.

All they have is a little pay, food that is hard to eat, and a poor pension after the war.

It is even worse for the people. Apart from a little food, it is difficult to get money, and they have to delay their own production in order to transport the grain, which is not worth the loss.

The distribution of the uprising dividends has nothing to do with them, and the treatment of joining the army is very poor. Soon, their enthusiasm for the uprising is exhausted.

The enthusiasm aroused by Zhao Kaishan's propaganda slogan that he learned Su Yonglin's appearance but could not learn the root just dissipated.

The military group of the Restoration Army and the landowners and squires who have obtained the benefits are also intoxicated by the huge benefits they have obtained.

Coupled with Zhao Kaishan's astoundingly superb military commanding art, the Liberation Army went slower and slower, the more difficult it went, and the greater the contradictions.

When Zhao Yucheng felt confused, he wrote to Su Yonglin many times, hoping to get some pointers.

Su Yonglin also seized the opportunity and mentioned many times that he paid great attention to allocating uprising dividends to the people at the bottom during the uprising.

Of course, those who join the army are not to mention, they are given full pay and food, and there are additional rewards for military merit.

For the people who help to transport food, if they have money for money and food for food, and the financial turnover cannot be opened during special periods, they will use something called white strips to replace expenses. In the future, white strips can be used for tax deduction.

Then, the land and household registrations seized from the Jurchens are included in the statistics, and the farmers are allocated land according to the number of laborers in the family, and they are registered and registered to create their own economic basics.

Only in this way can an army be provided with sufficient logistical support.

Once the logistics is supported, the army will be stabilized, and if the army is stabilized, the local government will be stabilized.

This is a step-by-step process.

You have to let everyone have a sense of participation, let everyone feel that their efforts are not meaningless, see real changes, and let the benefits benefit every ordinary person, so as to make them feel good about the uprising There is uninterrupted enthusiasm.

They will actively join the army, support the uprising, and protect the results of the uprising.

When you tie your own interests to the interests of an extremely large number of people at the bottom, you are almost on an invincible position.

Su Yonglin took this principle apart and told Zhao Yucheng bit by bit, hoping that he could learn something.

Of course, Su Yonglin's original intention was to let Zhao Yucheng learn, but he didn't let him practice it regardless of the actual situation.

In the end, Zhao Yucheng actually practiced it.
