Chapter 277 The Land Clearing Movement Begins

A month passed quickly, and with the preparations in place, various provinces began to post announcements on land liquidation at the same time.

In this liquidation campaign, only the land will be liquidated, and the property of the ruling class will not be liquidated. If the land of the ruling class exceeds the number of people in the family, all the land must be handed over.

The protagonists of this campaign are ordinary peasants, the army is only cooperating, and all officials must take the lead and assist. If things are not done well, they will be dismissed and investigated.

As the announcement was posted, there was an uproar across the country, and everyone was shocked.

The happiest are farmers, who not only can own their own land, but also own the food they grow.

If other emperors did this, everyone might hesitate, but when Jiang Chen did this, everyone did not doubt the authenticity.

A military and civilian land liquidation movement is in full swing.

Those landlords and gentry were really crying for their fathers and mothers. Seeing that the red deeds of land were confiscated by the government uniforms, and all the previous debts of farmers were destroyed, their hearts were bleeding.

After the civil and military officials knew the emperor's motives, they didn't have enough time to prepare if they wanted to resist.

This liquidation activity was carried out with the cooperation of farmers, the army, and the government. In just one month, all provinces completed the land liquidation.

The next step is to distribute land according to population, and to register and issue red deeds.

After the government collects taxes, it goes through the formalities of transfer and tax transfer, and then pastes a document uniformly printed by the official typesetting on the "white deed" (that is, "the end of the deed"), and finally stamps the official seal of the state and county (riding seam seal) on the pasting place. It is called "official deed", also known as "red deed".Red deeds are protected by law.The red deed is a property certificate recognized by the government or law.The two parties sign a contract, and after the tax is paid, the government stamps the government seal on the end of the contract, which is equivalent to the property ownership certificate issued by the government.

Land deeds are divided into "white deed" and "red deed".After the deed is signed, paying taxes to the government is called "tax deed", and the tax paid is "deed tax".When privately buying and selling land and houses, the two parties to the transaction negotiate and draw up the contract, which is guaranteed by the middleman and signed and stamped. It is called "white deed", also known as "grass deed".Its content includes the nature of the transaction, the quantity or area of ​​the industry, the location, price, transaction conditions, etc.

The biggest difference between the two is that the "white contract" has no legal effect, while the "red contract" is legally valid and has been approved and stamped by the government.

Under the deterrence of the army, the officials did not dare to procrastinate or play tricks. The land was measured and distributed according to the population. The process of sending the red deeds was smooth and orderly.

Things have come to this point, and all officials have nothing to do. If they object at this time, they will be against ordinary people all over the world. At that time, they will have to accept the impact of countless ordinary people.

Fortunately, the emperor did not confiscate their remaining property, as long as they returned the land.

Jiang Chen will receive the latest news about the land liquidation campaign every day, this matter is very important, and he must keep up with it.

Fortunately, so far everything is going well.

This is also attributable to the fact that he acted covertly, was quick and ruthless, and did not give the ruling class time to react.

Ever since Jiang Chen became the emperor, the civil and military officials had quite a problem with Jiang Chen. At first they confiscated [-]% of their property, and later confiscated their land. This is really terrible!
But Jiang Chen is in control of the army, and the current emperor's martial arts are so unpredictable, even if it is an assassination, poisoning is useless.

To deal with Jiang Chen, the way he used to deal with the emperor would not work at all.

They have discussed countless times in private, but the risk of each approach is too high.

So for now, I can only endure it.

Jiang Chen naturally knew the thoughts of these officials, this group of corrupt officials would also be replaced slowly, the imperial court needed fresh blood and fresh ideas, so that the country would have hope.

What Jiang Chen wanted were officials who would do practical things for the country, not officials who could only figure out the holy will and intrigue.

Jiang Chen pays attention to playing cards that do not follow common sense in everything he does, so that they will be nowhere to be found.

At this time Jiang Chen was watching his daughter playing with a Persian cat.

"Daddy, why is this cat not moving?"

"Daddy asked you, would you be happy if you were locked in the house all day?"

"Of course not."

"In the same way, if you hold it all day and don't let it move, even if you give it something delicious, it won't be happy, so how can it move?"

"I see! Daddy, I know what to do."

In the palace, Jiang Chen didn't stipulate how his sons and daughters and his wife should address him, as long as he could say what he said.

Yuyan put the cat on the ground, and the lazy cat, which was still motionless, stood up, shook its body, let out a cute cry, and then started to walk.

"Daddy, it really moved."

"Well, both humans and animals have the right to freedom, and no one can control the freedom of others."

"I see."

Looking at the elder son practicing sword in the distance, Jiang Chen showed a smile. This elder son is the most like himself. He has a good understanding. He is only less than ten years old. His sword skills are not weaker than that of Zhao Zhijing back then. It can reach the level of Wujue.

"Feng'er's swordsmanship is dead, but people are alive. You must understand it in your heart, and then you can use the sword to be superb!"

The son paused for a while, obviously trying to understand the words, and then continued to practice the sword.

Others may see that his sword practice has not changed from before, but Jiang Chen can keenly feel a slight change in his sword technique.

Really talented.

Jiang Chen hasn't practiced swords or cultivated for a long time, and now most of the time is spent on comprehension, but as time goes by, his skill is getting deeper and deeper.

Feng'er, you should grow up quickly, my father will pass on the throne to you, so that I can take your mothers to travel around the world, happy and immortal.

"What is Xianggong thinking so engrossed in?"

Seeing Lu Hanyan, Jiang Chen raised his head and smiled.

"Actually, it's nothing. I'm thinking that Feng'er will grow up quickly so that I can take you all around the world."

"Puff, it's a bit irresponsible to be lazy and leave things to your son when you feel tired."

"Yeah, but I can't help it. I don't like being stuck in one place by nature."

Looking at Lu Hanyan's swollen belly, she was about to give birth in a few months.

The birth of new life, the death of decaying life, the laws of nature.

The anticipation and surprise of being a father again can only be experienced by those who are about to become fathers.

Wushuang is due to give birth in two months.

Time flies so fast. A person's life is so short that there are many things that he has not had time to do, but it is so long that he feels that every day life is suffering.

Mingjiao's military operations in the north went smoothly, but now Nurhachi is not born, and the Manchus are not as powerful as before, but Mingjiao has lost a lot of people in the past.

If it wasn't for Jiang Chen's comfort and support from time to time, they might not be able to hold on.

Jiang Chen's hope of unifying all ethnic groups will soon be realized.
