Chapter 631 King Qin's Allegiance

Li Chaosheng took the document and looked at it seriously. Qin Wang stood at the door tremblingly, walking on thin ice, highlighting a feeling of discomfort all over his body.

And Li Chaosheng ignored him, as if he had forgotten that there was still a Ming vassal standing in front of him, and the King of Qin didn't dare to remind Li Chaosheng that he was still standing here, and both of them were silent for a while.

About 10 minutes later, King Qin couldn't stand anymore. He was about to remind him when Li Chaosheng raised his head to look at King Qin, then patted his head and said, "Oh, look at my head. I don’t remember anything when I’m busy, come on, uncle, sit down, I’m all my family, why are you cramped?”

Li Chaosheng said with a smile, showing an amiable person, but King Qin laughed nervously and said: "It's okay, it's okay, the county respects every opportunity, and it's a kindness to have a conversation with me when you have time, and it's okay to stand up for more."

"Oh, uncle, you are making a lot of sense in what you said, are you making sense?"

"Don't dare, don't dare."

King Qin waved his hands again and again, asking for reason, and he deserved it.

Li Chaosheng said: "Oh, brother-in-law, it's alright, don't talk nonsense, I neglected brother-in-law today, and I will invite brother-in-law to drink later, and make amends along the way."

The King of Qin waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I really don't care."

Li Chaosheng heard the words and said: "It's still my family, it's fine if I don't pick it up, uncle, you don't know that these things have caused me so much trouble recently, Henan, Li Zicheng flooded Kaifeng, which caused my Lantian to be in Kaifeng mansion Four shops were flooded, and the loss was more than [-] taels of silver. After Luoyang was captured by Li Zicheng, several properties of my Lantian in Luoyang were also destroyed, and the loss was heavy. Let’s forget about these sad things.”

"By the way, brother-in-law, I heard people say that King Fu of Henan Province was cooked in a pot by the intruders and shared with the bandits. Eat it as meat, Li Zicheng, a beast."

Li Chaosheng looked at King Qin as he spoke, only to see that King Qin was trembling with fright at this moment, his face pale.

"Hey, uncle, what's the matter with you?"

Li Chaosheng had a concerned expression, Qin Wang took out a handkerchief from his arms and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said, "It's nothing, nothing."

"Oh, if you don't feel well, you can go back and rest first, and we can talk about this family life tomorrow."

"No, the county respects all the opportunities, so why waste time on this little thing about me, let's talk about it today."

Li Chaosheng said: "Then your face?"

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just that the county lord said that brother Fu Wang in Luoyang was cooked by thieves, and he couldn't help but feel sad. He is also the king of the Ming Dynasty, so he is sad. Please forgive me."

"Understand, understand, after all, you are still relatives who have not released the fifth server, the relationship is naturally close."

Qin Wang waved his hands again and again and said: "The county lord must not misunderstand, I have no contact with Fu Wang at all, please let the county lord know."

"Oh, it's easy to say, easy to say, why are you so nervous, I didn't say that you have contact, and even if you have contact, so what? It's normal for relatives to move around."

"Yes, the magistrate said yes."

King Qin nodded again and again, and Li Chaosheng stretched his muscles and said, "And you don't have to worry, brother, no matter how chaotic the world is, our Lantian is safe, and you don't have to worry about what will happen to King Blessing."

King Qin said: "Yes, our Lantian is the safest place in the world under the governance of the county lord. I have never doubted this."

Li Chaosheng said with a smile: "Haha, it's us, uncle understands me, come, have a sip of tea."

Li Chaosheng took the teapot and poured tea for King Qin, and King Qin got up quickly: "Don't dare, don't dare, I'll do it myself."

King Qin got up and poured tea for Li Chaosheng instead.

"Ah, how embarrassing this is."

Li Chaosheng said he was embarrassed, but he didn't object to King Qin pouring tea for him. This King Qin is very good, so let's say it clearly.

Li Chaosheng glanced at King Qin, then said, "King Qin."

After hearing this, King Qin's expression changed, he knew that the main event was coming, after all, the big brother and uncle just yelled, obviously didn't want to talk to you about business, but when the word King Qin came out, it was obvious that he wanted to do business attitude.

King Qin immediately put down the teapot, nodded and lowered his eyebrows.

"King Qin, at today's banquet, you said that you would give my son and your eldest nephew a big gift, but is it still worth it?"

"Account, count."

After hearing these words, King Qin said without hesitation. Hearing these words, Li Chaosheng said: "Oh, I drank a lot today, so I can speak carefully."

"Yes, I said that I want to prepare a generous gift for my elder nephew. All the property of the Qin Palace will be given to my nephew, including 800 million taels of silver and about 200 million taels of antique calligraphy and paintings. The 20 mu of fertile land connected to the Prince Qin’s Mansion in Xi’an was given to the county lord.

"Oh, so much, you gave me all the assets of Prince Qin's Mansion, how will your family live?"

King Qin hesitated for a moment when asked this question, and said: "We have hands and feet, opportunities are everywhere in Lantian, I won't starve to death."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng looked at King Qin and said, "Uncle, you should think about it. The property of your King Qin's mansion is accumulated by your King Qin from generation to generation. If you give it to me, you can think about it under Jiuquan." , how have you explained to the successive kings of Qin?"

Qin Wang's expression became indifferent when he heard the words, and he said mockingly: "This is going to die tomorrow, he Zhu Youjian has the face to go to Jiuquan to meet his ancestors, why don't I have the face to go to Jiuquan to meet my mere King Qin?" Patriarchs, patriarchs."

King Qin knelt down on the ground as he said that: "Xianzun, I know what you think in your heart, yes, I am a vassal king in the old days, and I should be swept into the garbage dump, but Xianzun, I am sincere I want to turn over a new leaf, and to tell the county lord, I really didn't want to donate the family property accumulated by my ancestors to Lantian to build Lantian, but this time the matter of King Fu made me understand."

"If a person has no ability but is greedy for wealth, he will definitely end up in a miserable end. Our Lantian respects benevolence and righteousness, so don't force me. If it is someone else, whether it is Zhang Xianzhong or Li Zicheng, I, the head of King Qin It has long been hung on the head of Xi'an city."

"So, if the county lord begs you, please do it well and take away my family's property. I haven't slept peacefully for several months because of this property. Please let the county lord do it."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng looked at King Qin who was kneeling on the ground and sighed, "Forget it, since you are so sincere, uncle, let me tell you something truthful. Officials in Lantian liked it, and more than once they wrote to hope that I would take some measures against the Qin Palace, but I rejected them all. After all, we are related by marriage. If I use methods against you, I will not be able to explain it to you, Ah Ruo. Now you are like this Compassionate, but preserved, our in-laws."

Qin Wang wiped the cold sweat off his brow after hearing this, look, fortunately he is smart, if it is too late, people will worry about his life, not to mention his family property.

Thinking of King Qin, he could only bury his body lower: "The county magistrate save me."

Li Chaosheng heard the words and said: "Forget it, it's not right for our in-laws to see death without saving them. Well, you are also a big family. Although it is a very conscious thing to donate this family property to Lantian, But the whole family can't drink Northwest Wind, so if your family has cash, I'll keep [-]% for you, and I'll ask the bank to exchange it for you in Lantian silver dollars, which is convenient."

"In addition, according to the latest land restriction order of Lantian, you can keep [-] mu."

"As for Prince Qin's Mansion, you can live there. This is your ancestral house. If I expropriate it like this, I'm afraid even Ah Ruo would not be willing."

Seeing that Li Chaosheng was willing to accept his family property and was willing to keep a layer for himself, King Qin was overjoyed. The 100 million silver dollars sent by Li Chaosheng was much more at ease than the 1000 million taels of silver in his hands.

After all, the 1000 million taels of silver was not recognized by Lan Tian, ​​but the 100 million silver dollars were rewarded by the county magistrate, so they were placed in his hands clearly, and no one would make any decisions, so he could use them with peace of mind.

As for the [-] mu of fertile land, the King of Qin also knows that the land restriction order is an unwavering local policy in Lantian. What does it mean? A family can only have a maximum of [-] mu of land. Confiscated by the Lantian government.

What is the purpose of doing this?

The purpose is very simple, that is to restrict the local clans. After all, the harm of the clans has already been explained in the previous article. However, in the late Ming Dynasty, a large clan had hundreds of people, counting as one household. Such a family was a threat to the government in the local area .

Therefore, it must be dismantled. If the dismantling by force is definitely not possible, and the clan will be crazily resisted, then civilized methods should be used to complete the dismantling. The land restriction order is a very good method.

In this era when industrial civilization has not risen at all, land is the most precious wealth of ordinary people. Therefore, limiting the number of acres of fields in a family can well control the number of each family. If the family owns too many fields, then only two There is a choice, either confiscation or separation.

And once the family is separated, everyone should know that everyone has to count the accounts in their own hands. Once the family is separated, the originally united family will no longer be united because of interests. This can be seen from the old one. In an old-fashioned rural ethics drama, that family ended up with more enemies than enemies.

So as long as they are separated, the cohesion of a clan will not be so strong, and if the cohesion of the clan is gone, the local government will be much easier to manage, which will greatly reduce the administrative pressure on the local government.

There will be no such thing as before, when the clans gather to resist the law, why do members of our clan commit crimes, our clan has its own clan rules, and we don't need the laws of your county government.

And this kind of thing, Li Chaosheng severely cracked down on it, did he think that Daming was in charge of the world?In Lantian, there is no saying that the imperial power does not go to the countryside. All clan elders and village sages stand at attention. Before you make a show, you old men should first remember that you are ordinary people in Lantian. Your personal influence cannot give you rights beyond the law.

Your family broke the law, and the police in the village will arrest you. You can't resist, let alone use your shitty family rules to prevaricate Lao Tzu and fight against the county government.

Therefore, the field restriction order is the basic county policy of Lantian, and no one can shake it.

I believe that after several decades like this, the clans in all places will fall apart, and even if there are very few, particularly united ones, they will not pose too much threat to Lantian.

With silver dollars, the new-style food grown from one hundred acres of fertile land is enough to feed the whole family of Prince Qin, so the last one left, the ancestral house of Prince Qin, remains the residence of King Qin.

But this one was rejected by the King of Qin: "Honorable County, I can't live in this Prince Qin's mansion anymore. I will present myself to the court when I go back today, and ask myself to take the title of King Qin. From then on, there will be no King Qin in the world, only the people of Lantian, Zhu Cunji. "

"It's not appropriate for a common man to live in the Qin Palace. I want to buy a small courtyard in our Lantian County. It doesn't have to be too big. It will be closer to the county's residence. This will also make my mother miss my sister. love, and I can always listen to the teachings of the county lord."

Zhu Cunji looked at Li Chaosheng and said, Li Chaosheng looked at Zhu Cunji and said, "Do you want to live in Lantian?"

Zhu Cunji nodded and said, "Is it convenient?"

Li Chaosheng nodded and said: "Forget it, I just happen to have a three-entry yard in my hand. I live in too big, so I will give it to you. It is not far from my mansion, only two streets away. Old princess, you can go and see it from time to time."

"Thank you county lord."

Zhu Cunji kowtowed to thank him, Li Chaosheng said: "Forget it, King Qin..."

"Please call me by my name."

Zhu Cunji said, after hearing this, Li Chaosheng felt that it was not good to call you by your name directly, so he said, "Well, let me call you Lao Zhu, be kinder."

"Old Zhu? Well, this sounds kind."

Zhu Cunji said.

"Well, Lao Zhu, since you have no reservations about Lantian, and donate your property as soon as you say it, then I can't be stingy with you. In this way, I, Lantian, are planning a new government department, so it's better for you to be in charge .”

"Oh, me, can I do it?"

Zhu Cunji didn't expect that there would be such a big benefit waiting for him, but he has something for himself. Li Chaosheng wants to reuse himself, but is he that material, can he bear such a heavy burden?
Zhu Cunji looked at Li Chaosheng expectantly but not confidently. Li Chaosheng smiled and said, "Don't be in a hurry to deny yourself. Why don't you listen to the official before you make a decision?"

Zhu Cunji looked at Li Chaosheng when he heard the words: "May I ask who the county official is?"

Li Chaosheng said with a smile, "We now have a large land in Lantian, so we need to be more particular about our work, so I have a meeting with the political department and other departments to discuss and plan to set up an etiquette department in Lantian."

"The person in charge is receiving envoys from all parties, offering sacrifices to the ancestral temple, and arranging various large-scale meetings. There is not much work, but it is very important and the position is also very high. The top leader belongs to the level of my Lantian Minister, which is the same level as Guo Bao, Yang Shubai and others. I wonder if you are qualified for this position, Old Zhu!"

"Here, Xian Zun, I dare not say anything else, but I am definitely qualified for this position!"

Zhu Cunji was overjoyed when he heard the words. Didn't this hit the back of his hand? I can't do anything else. This aspect is definitely a genius level. After all, he grew up learning various etiquettes since he was a child!
