Chapter 151 A century-old Korean Conquest (1)

Six years later

Five Phoenix Four Years

Because the court's taxes and labor service were too light, the country was prosperous and the people were safe, and the self-cultivated farmers lived too happily, so many powerful manors in the world had fled famines. These tenant farmers who fled famine later became self-cultivated farmers in the court again.

In the past, tenant farmers did not escape famine because the court had too much taxes and labor service, and it was better to be a powerful tenant farmers than to be a powerful tenant farmers when they were self-cultivated.

The new emperor Liu Xun has governed the world so well. The tenant farmers envied the current self-cultivated farmers, so they wanted to escape famine and become self-cultivated farmers again, so that they could live a happy life.

Under such circumstances, the Central Plains tyrants had to reduce their tenancy to 50%, but they still could not curb the large-scale famine escape of tenants.

At no cost, the Central Plains tyrants had to reduce their tenancy to 40%, and a few powerful people who had severe famines even reduced their tenancy to 30% to reduce their tenancy to 30% to reduce the tenant farmers' escape from famine.

In the past, refugees were everywhere, and the powerful were short of land and people.

There is no refugee in the world now, and the powerful people are short of people and land.

If you want the powerful to treat tenants well, you never rely on benevolence, righteousness, morality to educate the powerful, and you cannot expect the powerful to be kind, but to manage the world seriously. As long as the living conditions of the self-cultivated farmers improve, the tenants will naturally find ways to escape from the powerful manor and become self-cultivated for the imperial court because they envy the living standards of the self-cultivated farmers.

Against this background, the Wang family also experienced a large-scale incident of tenant farmers fleeing famines. This is pretty good for the Wang family. After all, most of the tenant farmers migrated to overseas islands, and the tenant farmers couldn't escape famines, so they wouldn't swim in the sea and return to the Central Plains.

The three major families of Zhang, Li and Lu were in trouble. All their tenants were in Liaodong, and tenants could easily escape the famine.

The final result is that the population on the books of Liaodong County continues to increase.

The three major families did not dare to capture these tenants back, after all, the governor was watching.

Although the governor cannot specifically investigate the situation of tenant farmers in one county and one county, and there is not so much free time, so he cannot know the situation of tenant farmers in the powerful, at least the general situation in each county is still known.

If a county suddenly loses a lot of fertile land or population for no reason, these will arouse the alert of the governor.

Of course, all this is based on the conscience and seriousness of this governor.

If this governor is a normal governor, a governor who is in conjunction with the flow of defilements, then the above situations will not happen, how should the powerful people annex the land or how to annex the land.

By chance, this governor in Youzhou was actually a conscientious governor, which was completely unparalleled.

Therefore, the four major families of Liaodong King Zhang, Li and Lu have stopped land annexation over the years to avoid attracting the attention of the governor.

However, it was only temporarily stopped land annexation. It was impossible to spit out the fertile land that had been annexed during the late period of Emperor Wu and Emperor Zhao.

When you meet the wise king, you will suspend the merger, but it is impossible to vomit it out; when you meet the tyrant and the foolish king, you will accelerate the merger, and it is even more impossible to vomit it out.

Even a wise ruler can only slow down or suspend land annexation at most, and cannot recover as before. If he is a mediocre ruler or even a foolish ruler, then the whole world will accelerate its development in the direction of a poor person without a standing cone.

This is an irreversible development trend, and even a wise monarch like Liu Xun (Liu Bingyi) cannot stop it. At most, he can only slow down or suspend this development trend.

If you want to recover as before, you can only have a complete chaos and cleanse the original forces through a complete violent unrest.

The Wang family in Liaodong has now suspended land annexation internally, and external development has also shown bottlenecks, including Penglai Island, Amami Island (Tsushima Island), Abbot Island (Iki Island on the west side of Kyushu Island in Japan), and Yingzhou Island (The Goshima Island near Kyushu Island in Japan).

These islands have been developed, and the wastelands that can be reclaimed have been reclaimed. Tens of thousands of Han tenants have been immigrated. The indigenous people on the island either worked as slaves and were exhausted or killed directly as corpses. There are no free indigenous people.

During the reign of Emperor Jing, Wang Taiyang sailed eastward and drew a navigation chart, but now the islands on the navigation chart have been almost developed, leaving only the largest and farthest Weaver Girl Island (Kyushu Island) that has not yet been developed.

Faced with various situations, the Wang family needs to gather to discuss the next development direction of the family.

Current situation of the Wang family:

【Children: Fifty-two

Personal soldiers: one hundred

Security team: one thousand people

Farmland: 1.520,000 mu (210,000 mu of the fallen moon land, 50,000 mu of Peach Blossom Land, 60,000 mu of Daxiang, 150,000 mu of Liaodong islands, 50,000 mu of Korean islands, 100,000 mu of Yinmin islands, 400,000 mu of Penglai Island, 300,000 mu of Yan Island, 150,000 mu of Yingzhou Island, 50,000 mu of Fangzhou Island) (The 50 mu of the Han Dynasty is one hectare, so the Wang family farmland is about 30,000 hectares)

Tenant farmers: 50,000 (40,000 Han tenant farmers, 5,000 Dan Korean tenant farmers, 3,000 Mahan tenant farmers, 1,500 Muhan tenant farmers, 500 Chen Korean tenant farmers)

Slave: Six hundred

Craftsman: 367]

Liaodong County

Liaonan County

clang--

The rusty bronze bell was ringing and the Wang family meeting was held.

Since the implementation of the family secretary system, the Wang family has not held a family meeting for decades.

This time, except for the Wang family members who are in Chang'an and overseas, they are not allowed to attend the meeting because they are too far away, all the children of the family have to attend the meeting, even if they are the prefect and county magistrate.

"Greetings to all the masters!"

The servants and maids have been replaced for several generations, and most of them work in textile workshops and winemaking workshops, and only a small part of them are responsible for serving the Wang family.

The same process was still the same. Everyone in the Wang family entered the convention hall. After the maids brought tea and poured water, they left the convention hall. The slaves closed the door.

All windows in the meeting hall were opened and lighted, and many oil lamps were lit in the hall.

The hall is filled with chairs, tables and stools.

The chair and stool are the changes that happened after Wang Hongxian and Wang Qiao returned to Liaodong.

Wang Hongyin followed the advice of the two and restored chairs, stools, high-legged beds and high-legged tables inside the Wang family, but he still sat in a kneeling position when he was in the Central Plains to avoid being out of touch with the Central Plains scholars, which would cause some trouble.

Six years ago, Wang Hongxian and Wang Qiao presented the "Long Night Tour of the Western Regions" to the emperor. Emperor Liu Xun was overjoyed and conferred the two as the Marquis of Guannei and rewarded two thousand gold.

However, Wang Hongxian and Wang Qiao returned to Liaodong to visit relatives for only a year, and Emperor Liu Xun sent another team of envoys to serve. However, the target of this mission was not the Western Regions, because the Western Regions had established the Western Regions Protectorate, with Zheng Ji as the first Protectorate.

This time, the Han Dynasty's mission target was Rome (Da Qin), and Wang Hongxian and Wang Qiao were appointed as the Central Army, with a rank of 600 stones. Wang Hongxian and Wang Qiao returned to Rome with the team of envoys of the Han Dynasty, and said hello to the Roman Senate on behalf of the Han Emperor, and looked forward to establishing friendly relations between the two countries and conducting trade exchanges through the Silk Road.

"The head of the family is here!"

The head of the family, Wang Xiaoqian, shouted and reminded everyone to be quiet.

Dongfang Shuo died of his life, and Wang Xiaoqian became the chief minister.

The three of them served as the family ministers (the family elders changed their name).

At the same time, Wang Yujun, who is over 25 years old, serves as Wang Xiaoqian's secretary of the family (the name of the chief clerk is renamed).

The Wang family is forming a pattern where the male leads the outside and the female leads the inside. Male members serve as officials outside the family, and female members are managed within the family.

Wang Hongyin's three children, the 25-year-old concubine Yu Jun, assisted the family chief in the family; the 21-year-old concubine Wang Fengbang took some personal soldiers to Yingzhou Island to wipe out the Japanese indigenous people, but has not come back yet; the 17-year-old daughter Wang Zhengjun was just sent to the palace a few months ago. Because she was quiet and elegant, she happened to be the type that Prince Liu Shi liked, so she was included in the uterus and became the crown prince's concubine.

After everyone was quiet and sat down, the head of the family Wang Hongyin said to everyone: "The meeting will begin."
