Chapter 9: A big beetle in the circle of people occupying the area
"In Wuxing Village, Suanshan Township, Jingkou County, Nanyanzhou, Liu Yu is eighteen years old and has no wife. He is a male and a male. The second male brother is Daolian, who is eleven years old. The third male brother is Daoguan, who is ten years old and the female is one.
, Yu Mu Wen was thirty-nine years old and four years old."
"Seventy acres of Yu family land, no cattle, registered in the first month of the sixth year of Taiyuan." Diao Hong opened a yellow household registration roll and read it with a smile.
"Liu Lizheng, it seems that your life is not easy. You are the only male in the family, but there are elders and younger ones. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, why not come to my Diao family, I will definitely be better than you now.
"
Liu Yu ignored Diao Hong's triumphant look and looked up his household registration. He stood expressionlessly in front of the small case without saying a word.
Liu Yi sat on the couch, and several government servants brought over a white book. Liu Yi spread it out and prepared to start recording.
In order to distinguish the local indigenous residents from the northern immigrants, the Eastern Jin Dynasty specially made a distinction in the household registration system. The local residents used a special yellow paper to record the records.
This kind of yellow paper is dipped in a special potion that can prevent insects from being eaten, so it can be stored for a long time. The family, age, and property status of local people will be recorded in detail on it, and taxes will be drawn according to these conditions.
For refugees in the north, ordinary white paper is used to register.
This is not because of saving paper costs, but mainly because many northern refugees will be employed as servants and tenants by wealthy families by occupying their fields.
From then on, the names of these people disappeared from the country's white paper household registration, and they became hidden households and black households. They only farmed and were loyal to the wealthy families. Even the thugs and guards headed by Diao Mao brought by Diao Hong this time also had
Most of them are this kind of gangsters.
Liu Yu has been in office for two years, and he knows a little bit about the ins and outs of this process. Naturalization is the first step. At least he is on the white paper household registration list, and he is still considered a citizen of the country. The key lies in the next step.
That is to divide the fields.
In more than two hours, more than two hundred northern refugees in the courtyard were all registered one by one. Liu Yu was surprised to find that these northern refugees actually had high and low status.
For example, the Tan family has more than ten tenants and tribes of its own. These people seem to have a subordinate relationship with them in the north, and even their surnames follow the surname of Tan.
The Wei family was very poor, with only three brothers and a few nephews.
The situation of Meng Chang's family is quite special. It seems that the whole family moved here. Meng Chang himself has no biological brothers, but Meng Huaiyu and Meng Longfu are both clan brothers.
After registering the identities of these people, Liu Yi closed the white household registration booklet.
Diao Hong nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, Liu Zhizhang is really talented. With so many people, it was all done in two hours. No wonder Zhang Jishi keeps praising you for being smart and capable." At this moment, he was in a complacent mood, but it didn't matter.
The upper class spoke Mandarin and switched to folk language.
It was already nighttime, and torches had been lit around him. Liu Yi's face looked very calm under the light of these firelights. He said calmly: "Young Master Diao has given me the reward. This is just a matter of duty. It's getting late. What do you do?
What about resettling these northern refugees?"
Diao Hong said with a smile: "Don't all states and counties have charity houses to accommodate them? Liu Zheng, you take them to live in charity houses today, and let them work in the fields early tomorrow morning."
Liu Yu's expression changed and he said in a deep voice: "Wait a minute, Mr. Diao, didn't you say that all southern Yanzhou is under military control? The fields have been taken back to the imperial court, where will the fields be for them to work on?"
Diao Hong laughed: "I forgot to tell you something just now. The latest decision of the imperial court is to change the counties of Jiangbiao to Southern Xuzhou to resettle the people of Huaibei. At the same time, the three overseas Chinese states of Youzhou, Bingzhou and Qingzhou will be resettled.
It was merged into South Xuzhou, and the administrative seat was at Jingkou. This time, my brother took office as the newly established governor of South Xuzhou. Remember it.
Liu Yu lost his voice and said: "What? South Xuzhou? I have only heard of South Yanzhou. It was because Yanzhou fell into the hands of the barbarians. In order to resettle the people of Yanzhou and not forget to restore the lost land, the imperial court called it that. But Xuzhou obviously
It hasn’t been lost yet, so why is it set up in southern Xuzhou like this?”
Diao Hong sneered and said: "I shouldn't reveal this kind of military affairs to you, but since there are so many northern refugees here today, I might as well reveal a few things."
"The army of the Qin State has pressed towards Pengcheng. In the crisis in Huaibei, Xuzhou may not be able to save it, so a large number of Xuzhou people will go south. As for the three states of You, Bing, and Qing, they have fallen into the enemy's hands for nearly a hundred years, because they are too far away from Jiangdong.
It is far away, and there are not many people and refugees who have moved here, so this time they were all moved to southern Xuzhou."
Liu Yu frowned and said: "Then where has the original public land in Jingkou gone? Why not give it to these refugees and let them serve in the military?"
Diao Hong waved his hand with a smile: "No, no, no, this time the imperial court discussed that considering that it is not easy for the refugees to go south all the way and go through life and death, they can't bear to let them set foot on the battlefield again right away. Therefore, they are allowed to engage in farming for the sake of peace.
Serve the country and provide military rations."
A look of dissatisfaction flashed in Meng Chang's eyes: "Do you want us to be farmers? Hand over 70% of the grain to the country?"
Diao Hong shook his head: "No, I just made it clear that this field belongs to our Diao family, and you will also become our Diao family's children and tenants. Come to my Diao family tomorrow and join my family. From now on,
You have been members of the Diao family all your lives." At this point, Diao Hong pointed to the household registration in front of Liu Yi, "This white registration record will also be wiped out when the time comes!"
As soon as this statement came out, more than 200 northern refugees were all furious. Tan Pingzhi shouted angrily: "Why, how come this imperial land belongs to your Diao family? Why do we have to fight for it?"
Do you want to be a servant in the Diao family?"
Wei Yongzhi gritted his teeth and said, "That's right, if I had known this, we would have to be tenants and servants when we came to the south, so why would we come here?"
Even Meng Chang said in a deep voice: "Mr. Diao, it's not easy for me and the northerners to go south all the way. Even if the court allows us to work as farm households, we can accept it, but once we join your Diao family, we will become your slaves for generations to come.
This is too much!"
Diao Hong sneered and said: "Everyone, please don't get excited and listen to me. This time the Northern Captives are moving south and the enemy is in front of them. The imperial court has issued a decree to encourage wealthy families to donate money to help the army."
"You must know that before the soldiers and horses are moved, food and grass go first. In order to collect the food, grass and weapons needed by the army, the imperial court specially issued a decree. Anyone who donates tens of millions of dollars can be given public land in a state and can be appointed as the governor of the state. My brother
The governor of Southern Xuzhou spent 30 million yuan, which is three times more than other places!"
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "So, your Diao family spent a lot of money to buy this Southern Xuzhou governor just to bring these refugees into your Diao family?"
