Emperor Liu Hong

() "Uncle Huang is right! Now we have to consider what kind of conditions we will use to allow those people to voluntarily relocate to Jiaozhou and those two islands."

"I don't know, Your Majesty, is this going to be a long-term policy? Or is it a one-off deal, and after moving these places, forget it?"

"Of course, it's going to be a long-term policy. Land annexation can't be cured, it can only be delayed, and this method is the best way to delay it."

"Your Majesty said that I will think about it when I have nothing to do. Now, I have gained a little."

"Then uncle, tell me quickly."

Hearing that Liu Hong cared so much, Liu Shu expressed his thoughts.

His method is not complicated, let those ordinary people who have no land and are willing to farm land apply to the department set up by the imperial court.The imperial court will allocate land for them, which is regarded as a privilege of the people of the big man.

However, the distribution of land is carried out uniformly by the imperial court, which requires the applicant to obey the arrangement of the imperial court.There is a great possibility that xing requires the applicant to immigrate.

If the people are willing to immigrate, the imperial court will give great discounts.If the land is allocated locally, each person can only be given a fixed ten acres of tax-free land.And if they are willing to immigrate, each person can be given [-] acres of land, and they will be permanently tax-free.

In addition, all expenses during the migration process will be borne by the imperial court, and the migrants will not be allowed to spend a penny.Even including the housing and settling-in expenses after arriving in the place, the imperial court will also bear all of them.

In order to avoid conflicts, immigration is all voluntary, and the court will not force it.If there is no local land for this batch of allocation, and you do not want to immigrate, you can continue to apply and wait for the next batch of allocation.

But this land is preferential treatment for the people.So this land also has many restrictions.Since this land is allocated free of charge, it can only be inherited and cannot be bought or sold.Since it is completely tax-free, half of the land's production must be sold to the imperial court at a fair price, so that the imperial court has sufficient food reserves.

If the land is unwilling to be cultivated, it must be returned to the court.If it is abandoned for two years, the imperial court can forcibly take it back and punish it.

"Uncle Huang's method is good, he has considered everything comprehensively, so let's do it this way." After listening, Liu Hong made a decision directly.

However, in order to facilitate management and protect the environment, we do not recklessly change the cultivated land.After Liu Hong thought about it, he decided to implement farm management for agriculture.

Landlords need to go to the court to apply for a farm license to determine the exact amount and use of the land.After all, later generations have learned a lot about reckless land reclamation and farming. Liu Hong needs to plan ahead and put an end to it from the very beginning.

However, in order not to intensify the conflict, the establishment of the farm is temporarily implemented on a voluntary basis.

After some discussion between Liu Hong and Liu Su, it was stipulated that those with less than 50 mu are small-scale farms, those with 50-3000 mu are medium-sized farms, and those with more than 3000 mu are large-scale farms.As long as you apply for a license at the imperial court, you can immediately enjoy tax benefits according to the size of the farm. The larger the farm, the greater the tax benefits.Even in the future, they may enjoy subsidies or something to lure the people to set up farms.

Now Ryukyu and Taiwan have just discovered that Jiaozhou is also a place where there are more rabbits and fewer people, and there is plenty of land.Therefore, as long as they are willing to immigrate, each person will have at least a small farm of [-] acres, and they will be rewarded with houses, livestock, travel expenses, and resettlement expenses, so that the immigrants will have no worries at all.

Liu Hong thought well, but this stumped Liu Shu.

"Your Majesty, the imperial court has just spent a large sum of money to build the school. It is really beyond our ability to bear the cost now."

"What Uncle Huang said is true, but we can find another way to raise the funds."

"Oh, tell me, Your Majesty." Hearing this, Liu Shu was very excited.

Liu Hong didn't hold back, and gave the answer directly, that is, to sell the land.

Liu Hong is well aware of the aristocratic family's greed for land.So he plans to directly sell some of the land in these places in exchange for some money to support immigrants.

As for this money, can it support the process of immigration?Liu Hong was not worried at all.

Selling land is definitely a profiteering industry among the profiteering industries.Look at those officials in later generations, who is not full of food by selling land.Even in order to sell the land, they did not hesitate to demolish the houses of the people, so you can know how much profit this is.Therefore, Liu Hong is absolutely sure that he will use the money from the land sale to support the completion of the immigration.

After the newspaper propaganda, everyone knew that Dahan not only discovered two large uninhabited islands, but also found a large amount of high-quality cultivated land in Jiaozhou.

In these places, crops are grown at least three times a year, and in many places seven crops are grown every two years.And the land is also good, almost throwing the seeds on the ground, and then waiting to harvest the crops, no effort at all.

Although there is a bit of miasma there, but now a preventive medicine has been developed.As long as you are willing to immigrate, you can get it for free.

People are very tempted. Although immigration is a bit dangerous, but these days, why is it not dangerous?As long as you arrive at the place of immigration, your future life will be guaranteed.Fifty acres of tax-free cultivated land per person, returned to the livestock, even a fool can live a very nourishing life, which is much better than the half-dead here.

There are many people who want to immigrate, but the aristocratic family will not let them go.These people have all immigrated away, who will help them cultivate the land, is it necessary to let those lands be left uncultivated?

Liu Hong has been paying attention to the actions of the aristocratic family.As soon as this situation appeared, Liu Hong knew immediately.

"What should I do? Those tenants and servants have all signed contracts. They are also considered the legal property of those aristocratic families, and I can't let them forcefully release them." Liu Hong had an idea and found a way, "Forcibly release Humans can’t do it, but forced redemption should still be possible.”

Although the redemption is free, Liu Hong is still afraid of interference from those aristocratic families.So he ordered that all the big men have the right to choose the future, and they can redeem themselves for themselves, and no one can stop them.

Considering that the people have no money, Liu Hong ordered that if they have no money, but want to redeem themselves.You can ask the imperial court for help, and the imperial court will help you advance the payment and return it when you have money.Anyway, after the ransom, these people will almost emigrate, and they will have houses and land by then, so Liu Hong is not afraid of them reneging on their debts.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, the population was very cheap, and the money for redemption was not too much.Liu Hong did some calculations, as long as he learned Pinyin, Thousand Character Classic, Three Character Classic, and Hundred Family Names, the bounty he got would be enough to redeem himself.So as long as you work hard, you can afford this cost.Basically, there is no need for the court to help.

The tenants of the aristocratic family have all left, leaving no one to cultivate their land. This is not what Liu Hong wants to see.Therefore, Liu Hong proposed a compensation method of exchanging servants for foreign slaves.One servant is exchanged for two foreign slaves, and one tenant is exchanged for one foreign slave, which is valid for a long time.In this way, the aristocratic families can also have no worries, and let them not make trouble.
