Section 178 The big households

The Taoist temples on Jinniuling were already filled with victims who were willing to go to Lingao. This Taoist temple was finally applied for by Dianquanzi. During the wave of acceptance at the end of the security war in Qiongbei, the New Taoism and the Lingao Church launched a campaign.

Activities to compete for local religious facilities. In the office of He Ying, who serves as the religious affairs officer, Dai E and Dean Wu started a fierce battle. As the county with the most temples and Taoist temples, Qiongshan naturally became the focus of the competition between the two sides.

After some bargaining, Taoist priest Dai lived up to his expectations and won most of the religious facilities for the new Taoism. Although the Taoist temple on Jinniuling was in disrepair, its scale was considered magnificent in the entire Qiongzhou. Taoist priest Zhang originally

Following the principle of “occupy land first and build later”, the principle of occupying such religious facilities is that the more the better.[..com]

"...Our central task is, first, to capture people, and second, to capture territory." Zhang Yingchen instructed in a letter to Dai E, "Taoist temples are the center of communication. Without a fighting fortress, there is no way to capture the territory."

Arouse the enthusiasm for fighting."

Now, a young Taoist boy from the Taoist training class of the New Taoism has been stationed in the Taoist temple. He is wearing the standard Taoist robe designed by the Taoist priest himself: Tang style Hufu with narrow sleeves and lapels on the right side. The uniform is sewn on the right arm.

He wore a red Qian Gua armband and was looking after him at the door. Many refugees arrived and he was caught off guard.

There is actually nothing in the Taoist temple. Due to the shortage of funds, only a few houses were repaired as dormitories and office spaces, and a few crumbling halls were briefly reinforced.

Now these dilapidated houses, which are barely supported, are filled with refugees who are preparing to go to Lingao to work. Staff sent by the county are maintaining order. Of course, the main role is played by the troops of the 1st Infantry Battalion stationed in Qiongshan. Company documents

The rosters are being registered one by one so that Lingao can prepare enough camps, food and clothing. According to the plan, most of these refugees will be used in various infrastructure construction sites and agricultural production areas in Lingao.

Due to the influence of that successful MLM performance, almost all the propertyless tenants waiting for relief in the county were willing to go to Lingao to make a living. Many people even helped the elderly and young to prepare to move their families. However, the situation on the porridge market was different.

The extremely rapid speed reached the ears of the big households, and the reaction of the big households was much faster than Yang Yun, who was in charge of this matter, expected. Before the statistical work was completed, the big households took the contracts signed by the tenants, and the poor peasants of the tenants

When borrowing debts and rent arrears, a written document is set up to stop people. In this time and space, there is no concept of "going out to work to pay off debts", and besides their own strength, these debtors have nothing to offset their value.

Therefore, it is impossible for these creditors to let these laborers leave the county easily, which is equivalent to evading debts. In the past, they could have sent a piece of paper and asked Lingao County to detain the people and continue to sell their labor to repay the debts and complete the contract; but now they

It no longer has such great prestige.

Of course, the big farmers know what it means to lose their tenants. First of all, this year's rent has been completely ruined. Even though there was a typhoon and flooding, the tenants can still grow food for the next season, and they can't collect the rent at a 20% discount.

You can also get some. Once the tenants run away, they will have nothing. Even the rent arrears accumulated over the years will be written off in one stroke. Moreover, many refugees used to borrow a lot of loan sharks to survive the famine and spring farming. Now they have gone to Lingao.

The money will definitely not be paid yet.

In desperation, the wealthy families sent out their stewards and servants, and some even went out in person to stop the people at the porridge.

Liu Xiang thought of this when he heard Yang Yun introduce the action plan. While he was still setting up pots and lighting a fire in the porridge shed, he had already asked someone to call the security commissioner of Qiongshan County Office - now Qiong

The Shan County Police Department has not yet been formally established and brought naturalized police officers to the Jinniuling Taoist Temple to maintain order.

They also sent people to pick up the elders in charge of Delong Qiongshan Branch and Qiongshan County Court to come and deal with the problem.

But I didn't expect that the big players would act so quickly and the backlash would be so fierce. In the whole Taoist temple, there were some quarreling, some kneeling down and crying, some scolding, some choking on the rice balls... Naturalized policemen and soldiers



The soldiers tried hard to maintain order, but the scene suddenly fell into chaos.

Liu Xiang had to go on stage in person. In a hurry, there was no electric loudspeaker here, so he had to use a large tin speaker. He used the "rich high pitch" he had practiced using karaoke in the old time and space to shake up the scene.

"What's the fuss about? You think this is Caishikou!"

Although other people sing out of tune, and Liu Xiang never sings in tune, Liu Xiang's voice is indeed loud and deep, and his belly, which has been reduced a lot but can still block his sight, serves as a resonance box. This sudden roar makes

The scene suddenly became quiet.

The indigenous people didn't know what Caishikou was, but they could see that the Australian was angry. They were all stunned and didn't dare to argue anymore.

When the naturalized policemen saw this good opportunity, they immediately showed their presence with their heads held high and separated the few people who were tied together around them.

"Refugees go to the right to register first. Others wait at the gate of the Taoist temple!" Liu Xiang waved his hand and drew a line in the air, "This is a refugee camp, and no one is allowed to come in!"

"Qingtian Da... that... Chief," a man dressed as a manager bravely said, "We can't let them go. They still owe a lot of debt to our master!" This one!

The steward clapped an oil paper bag in his hand and shouted "Quiet", which caused several other stewards from wealthy families to express their approval.

"Master, if you take them away, our whole family will have no choice but to hang themselves." A small landowner cried, his robe was covered with mud, "Last year's rent was not paid in full..."

"This is a bunch of unruly people, Sir, please look at this. This is the knot written by our households last year, the year before, and the year before that. Up to now, they haven't paid a grain of grain." Another steward waved a stack of ledgers indignantly.

, "Now I'm running away again! What a real troublemaker!"

"Chief, this is Wang Sansheng's family who borrowed a debt, and he didn't even say that he would use his daughter to pay off the debt! Now he's running away! What's the matter? If you want to leave, you can just stay here to pay off the debt!"

"Repaying secondary debts is a matter of course!"

Liu Xiang was dizzy when suddenly the crowd was separated, and an old man with a white beard came in. He seemed to be a scholar like a landlord. He said tremblingly: "Master... Chief... From ancient times to the present,...

Wealth comes from grain, grain comes from leasing, and all grain households in the world are the foundation of the imperial court. The master must not be benevolent to others and destroy his own foundation..." He said and became excited, "

The students who have read the history books are the ancestors of the Song Dynasty. There is no such example of famine relief and disaster relief. Please ask the leaders to learn from it.

He thought that since the Australians claimed to be descendants of the Song Dynasty, it would be a big killer to promote the methods of the Song Dynasty.

"They just registered to express their willingness to go, but they are not taking them away now! The county has already made plans for the debts and rent arrears you mentioned, and the cadres who are handling them are on their way here. You go to the door first and wait.

Don't mess around here! Everyone get out first!" Liu Xiang said with a dissatisfied expression.

Seeing that the Australian county magistrate had become really angry, this group of people did not dare to cause trouble. They also thought that these idiots were in the Taoist temple and they were guarding the door. They did not expect them to slip out from under their noses, so they

They retreated noisily to a place where they could take shelter from the rain at the gate. A few were so slow that they had to huddle under the eaves.

Seeing that order was gradually restored, the two elders in charge of court and bank affairs also arrived. They were actually on a business trip in Qiongshan County and had no formal appointment. In fact, all the elder cadres in Qiongshan County except Liu Xiang

It was a business trip in nature, and the task was to set up a team and provide training and guidance. When the naturalized cadres were generally able to do their jobs, they moved to another place. It was Chen Ce from the Planning Department of Delong Bank. He came to Qiongshan to set up Delong.

Local branch - Since Qiongshan is the first county in the whole state, Delong plans to build a Qiongzhou branch here, and then set up branches or offices in each county. The Qiongzhou branch is also located in the administrative branch, with only three branches

Offices and a warehouse.

The elder sent by the legal community was Ji Xin. In addition to serving as the president of the court, he also had the task of building the local elementary school.

Liu Xiang held a small meeting in a dilapidated house in the Taoist temple. He first explained the situation and then came up with a plan on this issue.

"The situation has become clear. These tenants have been dragged directly to Lingao. They don't dare to say anything, but the impact is not good." Liu Xiang concluded: "The big households have not yet realized the real danger. They just instinctively protect themselves."

debts can be secured."

"I agree with the plan just mentioned. If the amount does not exceed my authority, I can approve a sum of funds." Chen Ce reiterated the condition of "not exceeding my authority", "but I doubt whether they are willing to accept our circulation coupons."

?At present, Qiongshan’s circulation notes are not creditworthy enough, and many people are doubtful. As for directly using silver or grain to repay debts, I’m afraid the reserves are not enough.”

"Then I'm ready to accept this lawsuit. After a few days of heavy rain, I finally have some work to do." Ji Xin said calmly, "I can take some measures to cancel these debts or reduce the amount.

It’s not difficult either.”

The wealthy gentry bullied the tenants, most of whom were illiterate and did not understand the relationship between the above terms. The contracts, IOUs and settlements they made were all "overlord clauses". Ji Xin had long wanted to take the opportunity to combat such unhealthy tendencies. The spirit of contract must be

It is based on relative openness.

"Is there a problem? Don't the big players think that we are using power to plunder, right? I'm afraid people won't be convinced." Chen Ce was a little worried, as he was instinctively sensitive in this regard.!
