Chapter 10: Self-reliance

Diao Hong smiled slightly: "Yes, that's it, you always understand now. Liu Lizheng, the country is at the forefront of the country, and you must levy taxes at Jingkou next time. Some of you will be busy at that time!"
Liu Yu laughed: "Not necessarily, even if the Gongkou of Jingkou belongs to your Diao family, they can go to other places. The world is so big, it is impossible for the family like you Diao family to control everywhere in Dajin. The big deal is to go to Sanwu and go to Jiangzhou. "
Diao Hong smacked his lips and looked at Liu Yu: "Unfortunately, our Diao family's money won't be lost in vain. Your majesty has a purpose. From now on, all northern refugees must be gathered in a county in Jingkou, not at will Relocate, offenders, use rebellion to deal with it, do everything possible to exterminate! "
Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "Diao Gongzi means that the public land and official land in Jingkou have already become your home. And these northern refugees can't go anywhere else, they can only play it in you. Become a child boy and a tenant in your field, right? "
Diao Hong smiled slightly: "It is precisely this time that in order to obtain the public land in Jingkou, our Diao family sold the industry in other places. This transaction is Your Majesty and recognized by the court. Of course, you can also choose not to plant the land. Maybe, in Beijing, you can make a living by playing tricks. "
Speaking of which, Diao Hong laughed with pride, and the servants and servants around him also laughed loudly. These northern refugees clenched their teeth and clenched their fists, almost spitting fire in their eyes, but they were Helpless.
On the second floor of Linjiangxian, Yang Linzi grudgingly raised the wine bowl over the small table in front of him, and said, "It's too ridiculous, Diao's family is to break the root of Beijing's mouth, Diao Kui is in the court. But the pat on the chest guarantees that the land in Jingkou can restrain the northern refugees and create a strong soldier, but he actually wants to occupy more servants and tenants for his family! Where can he not find a man-made land? Are you in Jingkou? "
Liu Linzong's expression was calm and shook his head: "Beijing is different from other places. This is the first stop for people from the north to cross the river. It is also the most convenient to cut off."
"Not only did he occupy the land, but also the court ordered that the exiles in the north can only concentrate here, that is to say, it seems that they can only farm in his field, so he can control it. With the military resources of Jingkou, you can enter into a deal with the Wang family's Xie family to fight for greater power, or you can learn how Huan's family is in Jingzhou to dominate Jingkou and generations of the town! "
Yang Linzi's face changed: "Then you have already seen Diao's intention, why not stop it?"
Liu Linzong suddenly laughed, took out a jade ruyi from the sleeve like a trick, and began to scratch his back: "A Ning, don't worry, the reason why Jingkou is Jingkou is because this is a place full of miracles. , I believe that the righteous Liu Yu will not let me down! "
Liu Yu quietly watched Diao Hong laugh out loud, and said slowly: "This is Jingkou, it doesn't have to be the kind of land you plant, so you can live. Diao Gongzi, I think you are too proud."
Diao Hong ’s laughter came to an abrupt end, he stared at Liu Yu fiercely, and said in a deep voice: "What do you mean? Do you want to use the grain in the Guancang to feed these northern refugees? Huh, I tell you "Your Majesty has a will. At present, all the grain stored in the official warehouse should be used as a military grain reserve. Don't even want to send a grain of rice!"
Liu Yu shook his head: "I didn't say that I would open an official position. However, in addition to the family fields of Qimin, our editors, and the former Gongtian you bought this time, there are also a lot of wild fields and wild slopes, as long as These northern refugees are willing to endure hardship, and they can now cultivate it! "
Meng Chang's eyes lit up and lost his voice: "Well, is this really okay?"
Liu Yu smiled and said: "Brother Meng, don't worry, we are in Jingkou, where the land is sparsely populated and there is a lot of land left uncultivated. No one is reclaiming it. It is best for you to come. I still have time to plant rice in one season, and I can harvest it in August! "
Tan Tan opened his eyes wide: "Fire ploughing? What does this mean? There will be a harvest in three months? We grow chestnuts in the north, and it takes at least half a year to harvest."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "You are planting corn in the north, but in the south, we are mainly rice. Those barren fields are overgrown with weeds. Before reclaiming into a good field, put a fire and put the grass in the field. All burned. "
"Plant ash is a good fertilizer, which is enough for the ground to grow one season of rice. Half a month later, the field will be irrigated with water to form a paddy field and then sprinkled with rice seeds. There are three months to harvest one season of late rice. Although the harvest is one mu There are only two stones in the land, which is not as good as your north, but it is enough for your family to eat. UU reading books www.uukanshu.com "
Speaking of which, Liu Yu looked at Diao Hong with his eyes full of anger, and smiled: "Even if Diao Gongzi took all the Gongtian in Jingkou, but with this method, they can still spend the first year safely Because the imperial court ordered that if the northern exiles were settled down, they would be rented without taxation for two years as an overseas Chinese. Diao Gongzi, this law has not changed this time! "
Diao Hong gritted his teeth and said: "Liu Yu, what do you mean, be sincere with me, and do the right with our Diao family? What do you have to do with these northern exiles, what benefits can they give you, you should do it for him like this Early? "
There was a cold flash in Liu Yu's eyes: "There are three reasons why I have to do this. First, as a local lizhen, I have the obligation to resettle the migrants and persuade the class farmers to take advantage of the country. Stealing a bit in the history of thorns and embezzling the country ’s fields, I want to take these northern refugees as your private property. At this point, I Liu Yu, our people in Jingkou will never agree! You can deal with these northern refugees today, and tomorrow you can. we!"
"Secondly, almost every family here in Jingkou is like them before. From the north to the south, it can be said that they feel the same. When I see these people, I can imagine that our fathers and grandparents are in chaos in the north. Going south. I ’m going to set them up for this, and I must not let these refugees just go out of the wolf den and into the tiger ’s den! Finally, they escaped the clutches of the Hu people, but they have become slaves of your generation!

Meng Longfu clapped his hands fiercely: "Brother Liu is very good!" While standing in the courtyard, the many refugees with tears in their eyes also all cheered, and screamed in a huff: "What is it called?" "Shut up, shut up!" But his voice was quickly overwhelmed by the raucous applause of these refugees, completely inaudible.
