Now it is a good time to make the move to clarify the land.

Because the court is now insane.

For various post-disaster reconstruction and aftermath work, it is estimated that the total amount of 327 million taels of silver is required, not to mention that the budget has never been exceeded in the end.

If you want to maintain the prosperity and continue this tone, all the big men of the court couldn't wait to make money.

Even if you offend someone for this, it is natural.

When the imperial tycoons were united, no one in the world could stop him.

Any powerful, gentry, noble, etc., will be a slap in front of the entire imperial machine.

Therefore, if Sima Bei could do Pengzhou Prefecture earlier and clarify the land here clearly and neatly, it would be desirable to start cleaning up two or three provinces in two or three years.

You said Dakang... Oh, no, all the people on the Chinese land are very attached to the land under their feet.

It is impossible to avoid coastal provinces like Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong. It is difficult for them to drive a boat to travel to the world.

Otherwise, the entire Southeast Asia, the entire Indochina Peninsula, and the entire Southern Subcontinent would have long been our world.

So before getting better land, Liu Mingqi couldn't let more people immigrate.

Unless you let them know that the land there is good and fertile, with lots of security, and you can return to your hometown in one or two months, it would be a dream to organize more than 100,000 immigrants.

Therefore, what Liu Mingqi should do most now is to help the court clarify enough hidden and occupied land and sell it to the people at a cheaper price. This is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.

The only ones who suffer losses are the powerful.

For the whole world, the powerful are the most useless things, and if you offend them, you will offend them.

In the middle and late periods of the Ming Dynasty, I did not have the courage of the founding emperor Zhu Chongba. If they directly attacked the powerful people in the world, killed all the powerful people in the world, and distributed the land to the people, they would be able to withstand even in the Little Ice River Age.

In fact, Liu Mingqi has prepared the follow-up.

It is true that Pengzhou Prefecture is a test site for government officials, and it is also a test site for Dakang's financial services.

As long as those big money shops can gain enough experience here, they can all join in and be familiar with land transactions that expand across the country.

This is also why Liu Mingqi emphasized at the beginning that more large money banks from all over the world must join in.

...

Sima Bei also started asking questions as he thought.

"Your Highness, you also know that the people have been so stupid throughout the ages." He said: "I am not afraid of the officials, landlords, and gentry hindering them, but I am afraid that they will instigate the people to make trouble... Once the surging up, if they want to clarify the situation, I will probably have to wait for a long time."

"This question is actually the simplest." Liu Mingqi told Sima Beidao: "Master Sima, do you think the people will sincerely work for these landlords and powerful people?"

"Of course not." Sima Beidao: "But the people are simple and ignorant, and they are prone to incitement!"

"This requires you to find the main contradiction, that is, the irreconcilable contradiction between them." Liu Mingqi said casually: "One has enough means of production, the other is a proletarian. As long as you let them believe steadily, you will also own the land and become the owner of the land, then there is no way for others to incite it!"

Sima Bei's eyes lit up and he immediately fell into deep thought.

The next moment, he asked, "Then your Highness, how should I break the deadlock?"

Just by Sima Bei's word "breaking the deadlock", he knew that he had already understood Liu Mingqi's meaning.

Liu Mingqi said: "This is very simple. You Legalists are most suitable to use the law to punish those guilty landlords and gentry. You can catch a typical example and sell all his land to the people, so that they can actually own the land. Isn't that good?"

Sima Bei smiled slightly when he heard this: "On the one hand, they become sharp opponents, and on the other hand, the people can steadily own the landlords and gentry, so that they no longer believe in these landlords and gentry - because if the landlords and gentry gained power, they will be the first one to deal with! So they can only follow the government, hoping that the government can suppress the landlords and gentry!"

"right!"

Liu Mingqi nodded.

These children of the Legal family are indeed natural changers!

After Sima Bei understood this way, he instantly achieved a modern method of dealing with contradictions.

Now, you are only one step away from it and you can become a vigorous movement of "fighting the local tyrants and dividing the land".

But it can't be done yet.

It’s not that Liu Mingqi is greedy for this money and noble identity.

But today's social contradictions are not prominent enough, and there is no need to do such a tragic and thorough reform.

The reason why Taizu and historians were able to do such a world-breaking thing was that they had experienced nearly a hundred years of crazy darkness and the people had reached the point where they could not be destroyed or established.

So the teacher shouted, which immediately awakened the 400 million compatriots and opened up a new era.

What does Dakang Dynasty look like today?

In general, during the Qingming Festival, the emperor and ministers tried their best to save the people.

Although life has been a little harder, they can still live roughly, so they feel very satisfied with this kind of life.

The ancestors of ordinary people have experienced wars of changing dynasties. These grandparents and grandfathers tell their descendants a truth - people in troubled times are not as good as dogs.

Everything is safe and good, and there is nothing left when there is chaos.

So now you want to say that you create a sharp opposition between landlords and farmers and let them rise up, that is unrealistic.

Moreover, the generals of the rebel army were basically peasant mentality, and it was impossible to reach the ideological realm of martyrs such as Taizu, Mr. Xiangyu, Taizong, etc.

Then even if such an uprising succeeds and changes in dynasties, it is just another feudal dynasty, and it may not be better than the current Dakang.

Therefore, Liu Mingqi is now trying to take another path to see if she can slowly transform society in a moderate situation.

After thinking, Sima Bei said again: "Your Highness, is your solution based on this special Pengzhou Prefecture area, or is it planned to be promoted to the world?"

Liu Mingqi smiled, "What do you think?"

"It's better to test it first in Pengzhou Prefecture." Sima Bei did not hesitate and said: "Although this is a good way to quickly stabilize the people and allow the court to get a lot of money, and to restore production.

But this is a special area, not a normal place. If you rashly do such a thing in the important part of the empire, it will cause a huge rebound, I am afraid that the court officials will not agree."

"Yes."

Liu Mingqi said first: "So you don't have to be too intense. Just kill the chicken to scare the monkey and cut off a few infamous guys. The most important thing is to place the people, and the more money you get for the court, the better! As far as I know, Your Majesty and the ministers have high expectations!"

"The guaranteed amount is 80 million taels of silver, preferably more than 100 million taels." Sima Beidao: "This burden is like a mountain, which makes me dare not slackew. Therefore, I came to ask Your Highness if there is any specific way to make me do better."

This is an offensive job.

But Sima Bei was not afraid of offending others. He was only afraid that he would not do well and would disappoint the expectations of the emperor and the court.

Liu Mingqi asked: "Do you know the 'Ding Yu case' last year?"

Sima Bei said without hesitation: "How could you forget this?"

The Ding Yu case was in July last year. Ding Yu, a grain businessman, was unable to withstand the bullying and oppression of the Ministry of Revenue and the granary officials, and hit and died on the stone lion in front of the Imperial Capital Government.

Then the matter was thoroughly investigated by Miao Yan, the prefect of the Imperial Court.

In the end, the super officials such as Deputy Prime Minister Nangong Ji, Governor Lin Zhenyuan, Minister of Internal Affairs Zhang Xiang, General Zhu Kun of the Leopard Cavalry, Minister of Revenue Wang Feiteng and other super officials were involved, and they were severely punished.

Even the prince Liu Mingyu at that time was involved and finally lost his life inexplicably.

How could you say such a thing make these imperial officials and literati forget about it at all?

What's more, this year's six-party forces have launched a large-scale invasion of Dakang and invaded the Central Plains, which is a large part of the reason for the instability of Dakang's foundation caused by last year's unrest.

If there were no last year's case of grain corruption, Dakang's grain reserves were seriously insufficient, resulting in unstable people's hearts and scarcity of various materials, how could those foreigners dare to be so arrogant?

"Then you should know how the Yulin Guard investigated the passage of Caoliangqiu County and Kao County warehouses?" Liu Mingqi asked.

Sima Bei thought for a while and said, "By the sudden attack, they caught them off guard. How can they destroy the evidence?"

"Yes!" Liu Mingqi said, "You can learn from them, first go through private visits in a secret way. After almost understanding the situation, you can kill several landlords and gentry who are extremely guilty in a flash, and add confidence to the people."

"That's the reason!"

Sima Beihe said first, "To be honest with your highness, you said that I also have this idea."

"But this is not enough." Liu Mingqi reminded him: "One of the important reasons why they were able to catch the evidence so quickly and accurately is that their Yulin Guard brought the group of editors and reviews from the Hanlin Academy."

"oh!!"

Sima Bei suddenly realized as if he was enlightened and said excitedly: "The editors and reviewers of the Hanlin Academy have learned the mathematics and accounting knowledge you taught by Your Highness, and know how to do a good job of checking the accounts. Therefore, these guys in the grain silo are unable to destroy the evidence and have nowhere to hide!"

Liu Mingqi nodded and said, "As the saying goes, "There are few supporters who are lost, and many supporters who are able to be enlightened. You are from the Hanlin Academy, so you naturally need such a group of your own descendants to help you, not to mention that they are young and are in a time when they have ambition and ideals and are not afraid of power. Let them check these landlords and gentry below, which is not burdened at all."

Sima Bei stood up with conscience, bowed to Liu Mingqi and said, "Your Highness has a clear view. I am grateful to me for giving me such detailed guidance!"

He knew that Liu Mingqi was powerful and could give him some advice, but he didn't expect that Liu Mingqi would give this method that could be used directly.

If he did what Liu Mingqi said, he would have to report to Zhong Xiang, who was specifically responsible for the matter, and then ask Grand Secretary Feng to send someone to help.

The best thing is to wait until after the Spring Festival, and then take them all the way, and then spend a month or two to investigate the situation clearly.

In this way, time is really tight!

...

I said yesterday that I would like to read the genuine version, and a master sent me a message so that I could do anti-theft chapters.

I have never considered this. This is the case with poor scholars. They want to have good grades and don’t want to add trouble to the men who read books. Don’t they deserve to suffer poverty?!
Chapter completed!
