Qiming 1158

Chapter 485 What do they want?What do you want to do?
Kong Zheng didn't quite understand what Shi Yongyuan meant.

In his opinion, this is a normal thing.

"What do you mean by Mr. Shi? When they rebelled, of course they had to distribute land to their subordinates, and after the chaos, in order to restore the rule of the world, it is only natural that the land would be distributed lightly, so what should be surprising?"

Kong Zheng stared at Shi Yongyuan, waiting for his high opinion.

Of course Shi Yongyuan is not messing around, he also has a purpose.

"I remember that the Zhao clan was looting land, and each and every one of them was rich. You shouldn't have forgotten the face of the Zhao clan's money making? We have all suffered."

Many people nodded, obviously still remembering the dark time when the Zhao family released themselves under the leadership of Zhao Xiang after Zhao Kaishan's death.

They have a fresh memory.

"so what?"

Kong Zheng still didn't understand.

Shi Yongyuan simply spoke up.

"After Su Yonglin came to power, not only did he not make money, he did not snatch the land to increase his private property, but he divided up all the land that belonged to the Zhao family, and gave it all to the farmers. , It is said that the generals under his command are the same and have no private property.

Ladies and gentlemen, since ancient times, rebellions have been all about money, land, and women. Su Yonglin and the top officials of the Restoration Army didn't want these three things. They don't seem to care about them. Is this normal?Is it normal to rebel against money, land and women? "

This is indeed not normal.

Shi Yongyuan's observation of this point of beauty has indeed opened up many people's horizons. After thinking about this clue, there are really many things that they can't understand.

Kong Zheng searched for a moment, then said a little uncertainly: "It can only be said that General Su's plans are very big, and he doesn't care about money, land and women. What he cares more about is world domination."

"The rebellion is said to be for the world's hegemony and power, but everyone, isn't power just money, land, and women? Without these three things, what's the point of power? If you can't be a power and a blessing, what's the point of being in power? ? Great harmony in the world?"

Shi Yongyuan spread his hands, his face full of course.

The education he received told him that he should uphold his conscience when he was in power, and he must fight for the ultimate idea of ​​the great harmony of the world. He was not in power for personal desires.

But all the real life he's been through tells him that most people are in power for the cheesy purpose of intimidation.

Everyone thinks so.

With power, you can enjoy more resources, get more money, get more land and beauties... and beautiful men.

What's the point of power without these embellishments?
Even Kong Zheng, a descendant of Master Kong, didn't know how to explain such a thing, his understanding of Su Yonglin was still too limited.

But following Shi Yongyuan's ideas, many of the participants shared the "strange things" they noticed and shared with the participants.

For example, the Liu clan from Wenyang County, Dongping Prefecture.

"I have also heard that every time the Liberation Army expelled a Jurchen, it took over the land owned by the Jurchen, and designated Jurchen's tenant serfs as peasant households, and allocated the land, and did not keep any land for themselves.

That's not all, they also set up something called a peasant association in the countryside. It is said to be used to manage the agricultural production of the entire village, and to arrange a group of farmers to be the chairman of the peasant association, the accountant of the peasant association, etc. Something I haven't heard of. "

"The farmers take care of themselves?"

Some people who had never heard of this were shocked: "Don't make trouble? What can farmers who don't even know a word do? What is Su Yonglin thinking? Crazy?"

"Not necessarily. He seems to have sent people to these peasant associations. What is the instructor's name? I don't know if that's what he called it."

Liu Cheng, the head of the Liu family, said, "Don't say that they are illiterate. They may not be illiterate now. Do you know that the people sent by Su Yonglin will teach these farmers how to read."

These words made everyone not calm, even Kong Zheng, his brows slightly wrinkled.

"Recognize?"

"Well, it's recognizing!"

Liu Cheng sighed and said slowly: "I also feel puzzled, what can they do, what do they want to do, and how much food will they spend? Will it not delay the farming season? What can I do? What does Su Yonglin want to do?"

This is indeed unusual. As we all know, it is the best way for a fool to govern and be fooled. It is not so easy to govern if you have knowledge and knowledge. The policy of ignoring the weak and exhausting the people is clearly written in the ruler's textbook Content.

And now, Su Yonglin is teaching these people to read?
What is he going to do?

Leaving this issue aside, Jiang Xingsi, the patriarch of the Jiang family who was born in Pingyin County, Dongping Prefecture, said another thing.

"My family has relatives in the countryside in the northeast of the county. After a visit to relatives, I came back and told me that the village is completely different from the past."

After saying this, someone immediately asked.

"What's the difference?"

"He said that after returning to the village, every household had surplus grain and could have enough to eat, and the villagers rarely saw food on their faces. He also said that the agricultural tax of the Liberation Army was extremely low, and there were no other extortionate and miscellaneous taxes. The farmers paid less than [-]% of the original tax. They are all praising Su Yonglin and the benevolent government of the Restoration Army."

When Jiang Xingsi said this, many people jumped up like a rabbit whose tail was stepped on.

"It was less than [-] percent of the time? What does Su Yonglin want to do? Be a good person? Live forever?"

"Not even [-]%? He... what does he want to do?"

"Could he not agree to our request is to force us to reduce the agricultural tax to this level in the future? This... I don't want it!"

"He wants to eat chaffyencai himself! I won't eat it!"

A group of "rabbits" whose tails were trampled started scolding on the spot, and they had many opinions on Su Yonglin.

Jiang Xingsi shook his head again and again.

"No, no, that's what the village under his own command has made. It doesn't have the same requirements for the land we control, and it's not really important. Everyone has done things like frivolous rationing. , not uncommon.

But my family Ding also said that when he went back to his hometown to visit relatives, he always felt that many places were different. Those farmers who opened and closed their mouths were all high-class people, cattle and horses, and how many words they recognized today, and how many will they recognize tomorrow. Character.

Moreover, there are still some villagers' self-defense forces in the village. With armed force, they often assist the Restoration Army in fighting, transporting grains, etc., and even some people advise my family members not to continue to be my family members. That's not what people should do. Farming is also a good way to be a human again..."

When Jiang Xingsi said this, many people stopped cursing and frowned, realizing that things were getting more and more wrong.

Interesting.

Everyone is essentially an old landlord, a relatively high-level old landlord, who has been an official for several generations, and is not the same as the ordinary nouveau riche.

Therefore, we all understand the advantages of the landlord's old wealth over the self-cultivator.

But now things seem to be different.

There are peasant associations in the countryside, organizations, literacy, and insight. They are not as easy to fool as before, and they can actually say things like "Don't be a servant to them".

This is obviously to treat them as negative characters, and there is a vague sense of hostility.

This...may not be great.

"I heard that there are many fallacies and heresies circulating in the surrounding countryside, saying that people who own a lot of land are high-class people, and those who face the loess and turn their backs to the sky are cattle and horses, not even people. If cattle and horses want to surpass people Days, we must resist the superior.

I didn't care at that time, I thought it was just nonsense, just some people's imagination, it's not a climate at all, no need to worry, but thinking about it now, it's not easy, I'm afraid someone is behind it, and I'm the enemy . "

Zheng Chengze searched for a while, looked at Kong Zheng, and said, "Kong Gong, what do you think about this matter? Whether it is the Restoration Army or Su Yonglin, what do they want? What do they want to do?"

Zhou Guangyu was also inexplicably unhappy about this, and looked at Kong Zheng.

"Kong Gong, we originally thought that the Guangfu Army was an army led by a group of warriors. It is true that it can conquer and fight well, but it does not know how to govern the country. Is that so?"
