Chapter 249 Dividing the Field

   Aware that someone was standing in front of him, Shi Liangyu raised his head cautiously, showing a flattering smile.

   "This... this soldier..."

   "Master Shi, do you still remember me?"

"what?"

   "Our family raised cattle for you."

   "Ah? Really? Then you haven't let me go?"

   Shi Liangyu roared with habitual excitement, not paying any attention to the terrifying haze in the eyes of the young man.

"But one year when my father was herding cattle for you, one of the cows broke his leg, and you asked someone to break both of my father's legs. My father lay on the bed for half a month, and both legs were broken. rotten and finally died..."

  Shi Liangyu: "..."

   "Oh, by the way, in order to compensate the cow with your broken leg, you even asked someone to rob our family of the last ration. My mother and sister also starved to death. All this is thanks to you!"

   Slowly squatted down, the young man and Shi Liangyu were at eye level, and the smile became brighter and brighter.

   "In order to repay your kindness, this time it's my turn to destroy your nine clans~"

  Shi Liangyu: "..."

   A few days later, in the most prosperous square in the town, the old landlords, who used to be high above the ground, were **** with five flowers and knelt on the ground with their faces ashen.

   But in their eyes, they were so despicable in the past, and the mud legs that were no different from animals were taking turns to come up and scold them, accusing them of the atrocities they had inflicted.

"My son... My son is only eight years old! You beat him to death with a whip because you picked up a few fallen grains in the field after you cut it. You are not human! Return my son. Return my son!"

   An emotional peasant woman in ragged clothes pulled on Shi Liangyu's collar and fainted from crying.

   Shi Liangyu numbly endured her tussle and pulling, and vaguely had a little impression of this "insignificant" matter.

   It was last year that he had just bought a horse worth a thousand gold, and he was so proud of himself that he happened to see a little cub stealing from the fields he had collected, so he called him to him and gave him a whip.

  I didn't expect to beat that skinny brat to death with one whip!

   At that time, he didn't take this trivial matter to heart at all, but was still proud of the quality of the newly bought whip, and he boasted that he killed a little beast with one whip!

   And now, this matter adds another weight to his heavy sin...

   Soon, the fainted peasant woman was carried down, and another peasant in ragged came up, crying and venting the sorrow in her heart.

   There are no gorgeous rhetoric, but the simple voice of narration and weeping blood. Thousands of "audiences" bowed their heads and wiped their tears.

   They are all from these eight townships. Which family has no relationship with them, and they have experienced the tragedy that happened around them more or less, which makes them feel the same way.

   If it wasn't for a group of mighty and majestic soldiers guarding the order, the angry crowd could tear this group of lost landlords to pieces and devour them alive!

   In the crowd, a young man with a dragon emblem on his chest quietly observed the changes around him and nodded with satisfaction.

   Is this what the instructor said, wake up the numb people?

  Before they were like a bunch of walking dead, now they are crazy, they are angry, they are tyrannical, but at least they are human...

  They...No, we are not a group of two-legged beasts who only obey, we also have feelings, we also suffer, we also grieve, we are also human...

   I thought of my father, whose feet were rotten and struggling to go to work in the fields, and my mother and sister who were starved to death. The young man's eyes were red, looking up at the sky, trying not to let the tears fall.

  My father, mother and sister, I avenged you!

   "Diligent, are you really hardworking?"

   At this moment, a trembling call suddenly came from his ears, Chu Qindi turned around and saw an old face that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

   "Second Master!"

   "Diligent! Really hardworking! I knew it was you when you complained just now. After so many years, you have grown up!"

  The old man was so excited that he wanted to touch Chu Chu and be diligent, but looking at his clean clothes and his dirty hands, he shrugged his hands back.

   However, Chu Qinfen grabbed his hands tightly and didn't let go.

   "Second Master, I haven't been able to come back to see you for so many years, the boy is not filial!"

   "Haha, what kind of filial piety, your father is your only seedling. Seeing that you are doing well now, you can rest assured that the second master is dead!"

   This sentence made Chu Qinfen's eyes sour again. If the second master had not forcibly extracted some of his family's rations to help him, he would have starved to death a long time ago!

   "By the way, are you a high-ranking official in the city now? I see a few soldiers salute you just now."

   After a while of greeting, the second master suddenly asked curiously.

   "It's just an ordinary grassroots cadre, not an official."

   subconsciously touched the dragon emblem on his chest, Chu diligently raised his chest proudly, but his mouth was very humble.

   "Grassroots cadres??"

   "It's the yamen clerk."

"Oh!"

   suddenly remembered something, Chu Qin diligently pulled the second master to the corner and whispered in a low voice.

"Second Master, after the complaint meeting is over, Lord Wu'an will confiscate all the land of those wealthy families. At that time, people who have no or little land can apply for a piece of self-cultivation. An adult can allocate up to three acres. Adults can be allocated a maximum of two acres, when the time comes, you should apply as soon as possible, and strive for a large fertile field as a family!"

  The second master, who was listening, shuddered and widened his eyes in disbelief.

   "Divided ... divided fields?!"

   "Yes, except that this field cannot be traded, it is equivalent to your own family and can be cultivated for generations."

   Both feet were soft, and the second master almost sat down with his buttocks, and was supported by Chu Qin diligently and did not fall down.

   "Diligent, what a martial artist, does he count?!"

  The second master held Chu Diligently's hand tremblingly, and the dry five fingers covered with calluses actually caused him a slight pain.

   "Mr. Wu'an, Lord Wu'an·Zhao Yinshun, Er Ye, you must remember this name."

   Holding the second master's hand instead, Chu Qin said in a low and solemn manner, that pious appearance was like a missionary singing the honor of God.

   "Zhao Yinshun, Lord Wu An... I remember, does he count? He won't change his mind, right?"

   Chewing on the name carefully, the second master nodded, and continued to ask questions, worried that it was just a short-lived dream.

   "Mr. Wu'an is the supreme ruler of [Liuyin Fengguo], Jinkou Yuyan, how could he change his mind?"

   Chu shook his head diligently and firmly.

   "However, the army gives priority to allocating land, you can only choose them to choose the rest."

   "Ah? How much is left? Isn't it all allocated?"

   nervously grabbed Chu Qin's hand, and the second master asked anxiously.

   "A soldier's base is 10 acres, and each rank is allocated an additional 10 acres, plus individual military rewards, we now [Cang Jiao Division] can occupy a maximum of several hundred thousand acres of land."

   "Hundreds of thousands of acres?"

   Hearing this astronomical figure, Er Ye's eyes turned dark and his heart was ashes.

   What else is left?

   There is no home at all!

   Seeing his appearance, Chu Qin diligently laughed and comforted him softly.

   "Second Master, do you know how big Linbo County is? How big is the entire Liuyin Fengguo? The land occupied by the army is like a drop of water in the sea, and the remaining land is enough for you to pick on!"

"what?!"

  The sluggish old farmer raised his eyes in confusion. He has been guarding an acre of land all his life. He has no idea of ​​the vastness of this world at all.

   "Diligent! You must not lie to the second master!"

   "If I lie to anyone, I won't lie to you, Second Master!"

  Chu diligently didn't know whether to laugh or cry, hugged Er Ye's shoulders tightly, and whispered in a low voice.

"Don't worry, after all the land in the county has been measured and sorted out, this matter will be officially announced. You go back to prepare the materials first, and I will help you write the application. When the time comes, you can sign up as soon as possible, and you will definitely be able to choose one. Big fat field!"

   "Data? What data?"

   Looking at the confused and dull face of the second master, Chu Qin diligently rubbed his eyebrows and said helplessly.

   "It's just the number of people in your family, the details of adults and children. By the way, why do you have no land and little land, and how miserable your life is..."

   found that the second master's expression became more and more confused and helpless.

   "Forget it, when I'm done here, I'll go to your house to help you complete the information, just wait."

   "However, don't tell me about this, otherwise everyone will prepare in advance, and you will have less choice! I may also be criticized."

   At the end, Chu Qinfen still reminded him.

  Although this is not illegal, it is still somewhat disgraceful, and he does not want to add a blemish to his resume.

   "Oh! Oh! I know, I won't tell anyone!"

  The second master nodded his head like garlic, then he pondered for a while, and asked Ai Ai regularly.

   "That... Diligence, you said that when you become a soldier, you can divide 10 acres of land. Do you think my little brat has a chance to become a soldier?"

   "Brother Liang? After the land is divided equally, each township will organize a [Dragon Guard], and he can sign up for a try at that time."

   "Dragon Guard??"

   Hearing another term that he didn't understand, the old farmer looked at Chu Qindi in embarrassment and inferiority, feeling that the skinny child had grown into a well-informed big man.

  Look at my family again, it's still the mud legs slicing in the soil!

   "You can understand the brave militiamen of the township. They farm on weekdays, and they practice classes in their spare time or at night. When the time comes, they will ask their master to teach them literacy and learn various knowledge."

   "If you have talent, you will be recommended to Lord Wu'an. Not only can you be a soldier, but you can also be an official!"

   "Being an official?!"

  's eyes lit up, the old farmer grinned innocently, and then quickly shook his head.

   "I don't dare to think about it, I don't dare to think about it. Brother Liang, you only have the strength to harvest crops. I am satisfied if you can be a soldier."

   Thinking of the brother in the second master's family, Chu Qin smiled diligently.

   "Brother Liang is smarter than me since he was a child. I can be an official the size of a sesame seed. Why can't Brother Liang?"

   "Hahaha, he can't, he's not as smart as you."

   The old peasant waved his hand quickly, but he couldn't stop laughing.

   Finally, when the old peasant left, Chu Qin diligently watched his back, and vaguely felt that the rickety body seemed to be a little taller, and the originally cloudy and numb eyes had a glimmer of longing hope, and even his steps were a little brisk.

   "Father...You named me Diligent, but you didn't know that Diligence might not be rewarded..."

   stroked the concave and convex pattern of the dragon emblem on his chest, Chu Qin muttered to himself.

   "You have worked hard all your life, diligently and diligently, but ended up in a tragic end..."

   "Mr. Wu An is right, only the diligence of taking the means of production into your own hands is meaningful, otherwise you are simply suffering from exploitation!"

   "Only by smashing this unfair old world and creating a better new world, hard-working and kind-hearted people like you and Erye will get the rewards they deserve."

   "My diligence is also meaningful..."

Watching the back of the second master disappear at the end of his line of sight, Chu Qin clenched the dragon emblem on his chest tightly, the uneven edges and corners pierced his palms, but he seemed to have drawn endless power from it, and his eyes flashed with a radiant perseverance. .

  …………

   "Not enough manpower?"

   Holding the shivering kitten, Oakley Yani asked gloatingly while petting the cat.

   Looking away from the map, Zhao Yinshun sighed helplessly when he saw the kitten staring straight at him.

   "Yes, there are not enough manpower, and the actual control area does not even occupy one-tenth of Linbo County. This empire's territory is outrageous!"

   calmly took the kitten from Oakley Yani's hand, Zhao Yinshun rubbed the cat's head angrily and said angrily.

   "The territory of your central empire is outrageous. The entire Taixi continent is smaller than your country, but there are hundreds of countries, big and small. That's normal. You are too strange!"

  There was no cat to play, and Oakley Yani picked up the little Loli who was cooking rice, "up and down".

  Two fun people, each with one pet, had a lot of fun.

   "The [Emperor] can maintain such a large territory is also amazing, I understand his difficulties a little..."

   When the kitten didn't dare to resist and rubbed her belly, Zhao Yinshun sighed with emotion.

  Without a modern organizational system, the cost of governance in the feudal era, if the local government is not autonomous, the state finance will not be able to maintain the astronomical bureaucratic system, and it will collapse for you in minutes!

   "[Emperor]'s most powerful thing is the suppression and regulation of the Heavenly Vessel, Earth Vessel, and Water Vessel. This is the force that directly controls nature. The land here is so fertile, and he also has a share of the credit."

   "Indeed, the emperor has done a good job in this regard, but unfortunately, the institutional system is rotten, and no matter how fertile the land is, it is only cheap for the exploiters."

   Zhao Yinshun couldn't help but nodded when he thought of the grain yield of more than 300 catties per mu of land.

   This is almost the limit of the per-mu yield that did not use chemical fertilizers in the previous life, but here it is only the result of extensive farming. It is said that with intensive farming, it can reach an exaggerated figure of 500 jin.

   What’s even scarier is that you don’t need to fallow crops. After planting a season of grain every year, you can also seize the time to plant one or two crops of vegetables. You can’t see the soil exhausted without going back and forth. I don’t know if it’s because of the unscientific factor of spiritual power in the air…

   Thank you [sail_l] [Celestrail] [Xiashan Jushi] [Uncomfortable Book Fans] [Also Difficult Half-Dream] and other book friends for their rewards.

   Last night, I worked overtime again and didn't go home until the early hours of the morning. Everyone was numb. Fortunately, I didn't work overtime today. I wrote 2,000 words and saved the manuscript. I will post two chapters together tomorrow. ()

   At the end of the month, I still ask for a ticket~
