Chapter 300 The Land Harvesting Conference, All Confiscated!Equity temptation, scrambling to be the
"What?? Harvesting fields?"
At this moment, the whole meeting place was boiling, this was too nonsense, why did Li Xiao take their fields, those were all regular income.
"Li Xiao, you are crazy!"
The first one to speak was Wei Guogong Xu Huizu. He was not afraid of Li Xiao. He called Li Xiao by his name and shouted: "My father followed the Supreme Emperor to conquer the world in the 13th year, overthrew the violent Yuan, conquered the Quartet, commanded the Northern Expedition, and pacified the world. I have made great contributions to the Han and horses, these fields were rewarded to my Xu family by the Supreme Emperor, and you want to take them back? I firmly disagree with this matter, and I will report it to the court."
Xu Huizu was the elder brother of Li Xiao's mother-in-law. After arriving in Nanjing, Li Xiao originally planned to visit Xu Huizu in private.
However, this person has a very violent temper and never sees Li Xiao, so he did not reach a consensus in private, but was the first to jump out against him.
Xu Huizu's temperament is like this. On the normal historical line, Zhu Di is difficult to obey the sky. In Xu Huizu's eyes, Zhu Di is a traitor. Protected by the queen, I am afraid that Zhu Di would have killed him long ago.
Following Xu Huizu's objection, other people also responded one after another.
"Yes, there is no reason to take back the land bestowed by the emperor."
"That's right. Although my land was not rewarded by the emperor, it is still legally obtained."
"The national teacher is becoming more and more unreasonable. If he thinks that he can take away our land with strong means, we will not let him succeed even if we try our best."
"Yes! The national teacher must not be allowed to succeed. Why, when did this regulation come out? This is not convincing!"
Everyone shouted and said.
The scene became very chaotic, and the people below were all discussing with each other, looking excited. After all, it was a large amount of land, and no one was willing to hand it over.
Li Xiao winked, then Qinglong took out the imperial decree and said: "I will obey the imperial decree of Chengyun."
As soon as this remark came out, the faces of everyone present changed, and they immediately knelt down.
Qinglong said in a loud voice: "The emperor said that the reform is more important than Mount Tai. The Beiping reform is successful and implemented. The world should be unified and all will be implemented. I ordered Li Xiao, the national teacher, to implement the Beiping policy in Nanjing. No matter when and where Land, see the national teacher as if I am here in person, you don’t need to inform me of everything, and do everything according to the national teacher’s words, I respect this.”
With the decree down.
Everyone in the scene changed their faces.
See the national teacher, as if I am here in person! ! !
This is simply incredible!
Now, no one in the entire venue spoke anymore.
Most of them are relatives of the emperor and nobles.
They are different from those local tyrants. Local tyrants are slowly accumulated and formed, and they don't care whether the dynasty changes.
And what do these people rely on for food?
It is to rely on the emperor to eat and rely on imperial power.
The emperor has spoken, what else can they say?
To put it bluntly, the king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die.
Even if it is the land that the emperor rewarded back then, but now it is going to be taken back, what else can I do?I can only offer it with both hands.
"Damn it, this Li Xiao is really insidious and cunning. There is no news about it in advance. He suddenly gathered everyone together, and then issued an imperial decree to suppress us. There is really nothing we can do now."
Many nobles and relatives of the emperor scolded Li Xiao like this in their hearts.
If Li Xiao mentioned this matter in advance, everyone still has time to prepare and transfer the land in advance
But Li Xiao was obviously aware of this, and suddenly called everyone here at the same time.
Many people came from other places. After arriving in Nanjing, they found that they were being followed, which was equivalent to house arrest. Then they directly took out the imperial decree today, which was simply impossible to guard against.
"Why do you all look so sad??"
Li Xiaolang said in a loud voice: "This move will benefit the country and the people, enrich the people and strengthen the country!!! Now the Shequ government offices have been successively established in Nanzhili, and the She district government offices will solve the problem of the imperial power not going to the countryside. Our court The control of the land will be extended to everyone. Similarly, the control of the land will also be strengthened unprecedentedly. The land is under the control of the imperial court, and taxes can be better collected. With financial resources, the country will be more prosperous! ! As relatives of the emperor, or officials of the imperial court, shouldn’t you be happy to see my Ming Dynasty flourishing?”
A son-in-law shouted: "My lord, although I said so, our fields were confiscated, and we went back to before liberation overnight. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for the royal family to be inferior to ordinary people in the future?"
A marquis shouted: "Yes, the national teacher, you are dedicated to serving the country and the people. I am deeply impressed. But you must also think about us. My father made great contributions to the founding of the country to get these rewards. If you are like ordinary people The same, wouldn’t it be chilling? Who will willingly shed blood and sweat for the court in the future.”
Immediately afterwards, more and more people began to complain.
What these people say is not without reason.
Their ancestors fought bloody battles in exchange for today's glory and wealth.
The cold weapon battlefield is very cruel. After a war, tens of thousands of casualties can be easily caused.
However, seeking wealth and danger, joining the army is still the best choice for ordinary people to counterattack. This is why so many people go to the battlefield and fight without fear of life and death.
In ancient times, what made soldiers not fear life and death when they fought in the army?
The answer is rewards, which are fields and titles.
A few heads are enough for an ordinary soldier to become a meritorious nobleman and landlord who can eat and drink well, so that future generations don't have to worry about making a living.
On the battlefield, there are a few who have made the most contributions, and the death rate is very high, and they need to fight with their lives.
Climb first is to be the first to climb the city wall. It is conceivable how high the mortality rate of this behavior is. People who have watched TV dramas should know that climbing first is not just as simple as being the first to climb up, but also requires climbing up. It is necessary to open a gap for the follow-up troops, and going up first means laying down a city.
Those who can become earls are often soldiers who have such an operation and are lucky enough to survive, with a life-and-death chance to fight for their future.
In addition, it is very difficult to fall into the battle, kill the general, and capture the flag. Without these credits, it is almost impossible to obtain the earl.
What the ancestors bought with their blood and lives, but now Li Xiao wants to take it back as soon as he opens his mouth. It is conceivable how chilling these people are.
Of course, Li Xiao didn't want to just take it away for nothing. The compensation that should be given still has to be given. If he did something chilling, no one would fight for the court in the future. After all, he would conquer the world later.
Li Xiao said loudly: "Okay, I, Li Xiao, am not a ruthless person. Recruiting land is a national policy and must be implemented for the country. And you, of course, will receive corresponding compensation."
At the same time, Qinglong stood up and began to read aloud: "Everyone, the next thing I'm going to read is the compensation standard for handing in the land. Listen clearly. According to our investigation, the land price in Nanjing City is 30 taels per mu for a good farmland. The average good farmland is 20 taels per mu, and the second-grade farmland is 15 taels per mu.”
Fields are also divided into good and bad, mainly based on whether they are close to water sources, whether the land is flat and connected, and the degree of fertility of the soil.
Fertile farmland close to abundant water sources is very expensive, as high as 30 taels per mu, which is the highest price in the market, not an exaggeration at all.
Hearing this, everyone held their breath.
It turns out that the national teacher still has a conscience, and he didn't take it away for nothing.
Qinglong continued: "Because there are too many fields, it would take too much time to explore them one by one, so we will take the middle number and settle the unified compensation price at 20 taels per mu. Do you have any objections?"
As soon as this remark came out, it suddenly became lively again.
Some people are happy that someone is worried.
Some people wait for more fertile land, which obviously makes money.
Such a person secretly rejoices and keeps silent.
But some people are all high-quality fertile land, so it is obviously a loss.
For example, Wei Guogong Xu Huizu, he is frowning now.
The fields rewarded by his family are all good farmlands, with thousands of acres of land and ten thousand acres of flat land, with sufficient water sources and fertile land.
There are not only grain and rice planted in it, but also fruit trees and tea trees that have been planted for many years. Let alone 30 taels of silver, even if it is sold for 50 taels of silver, it will be a loss.
"It's not fair. Since it's compensation, then it should be compensated according to the actual situation. My family's farmland is all high-quality farmland. Based on the price of medium-sized farmland, wouldn't it be a loss?"
Immediately, someone yelled.
Li Xiao said in a loud voice: "Now it's your turn to contribute to the imperial court. You have to care about everything? Not only do you have land, but you also have the food salary of the title, and the food salary is still there. How can you really starve to death??? Whoever yells again, Eliminate subsidies."
As soon as this remark came out, it was extremely lethal, and it immediately became quiet.
After all, everyone thought it was free, but now there is a subsidy, which is an unexpected surprise. We really can't ask for more.
And Li Xiao didn't do this on purpose. He really had no choice, because it would take years and months to explore the 600 million acres of fields bit by bit. If he wanted to get this matter done today, he had to make a choice.
Qinglong said: "Now it's officially started, who will hand it in first?"
The voice fell, but no one moved, they were all watching quietly.
Li Jinglong raised his hand first, "I'm coming!"
"very good!"
Li Xiao laughed and said, "The first person who voluntarily handed in has appeared. He is the first to contribute to the country. In addition to compensation, he will be rewarded with 5000 taels of silver."
Everyone: "????"
Put this aside and sing together, right?
Now who doesn't know that Li Jinglong has become your national master's lackey? ? ?
Li Jinglong walked to the workbench where the field was handed in, and the staff there registered, and then signed the contract, and it was done quickly.
That's right, you don't need to bring the land deed for this contract, you only need to sign the contract, the previous land deed will be voided immediately, and the land will belong to the imperial court.
A staff member in charge of the contract shouted loudly: "Cao Guogong Li Jinglong signed the contract successfully. The total amount of land is 86 mu, which is equivalent to 5000 taels of silver, plus a reward of 86 taels, a total of 5000 taels. Hand it over as the Duke of the country. An additional reward of [-] ten thousandths of the permanent equity of Nanjing Chemical Fertilizer Factory!!"
Li Jinglong nodded, then was slightly taken aback.
What the hell, and a [-]/[-] stake in the Nanjing Fertilizer Factory? ?
Surprise! ! !
Others on the field were also stunned.
I can understand that I received a compensation of 86 taels of silver.
What the hell is that equity?
Facing everyone's questions, Li Xiao explained: "Oh, by the way, I forgot to inform everyone that from today onwards, the soldiers who have made contributions to the country will not be rewarded with land, but will be rewarded with factory shares. Nobles, as long as you hand in the rewarded land, you will be treated equally! Cao Guogong handed in the rewarded land, so he got a permanent shareholding according to his title."
That's right, after weighing it over and over again, Li Xiao finally made this decision.
After all, the country still needs people to go to the front line, there must be brave men under heavy rewards, and the rewards for meritorious service in battle can continue to be maintained.
And the reason why Li Xiao kept it secret before was because of this moment, so that everyone had a kind of unexpected joy, and impulsively handed over the land.
Because Nanjing used to be Kyoto, these rewarded fields were basically on the southern Zhili side, which was equivalent to solving them all at once.
"What is equity, it feels useless."
"Yeah, [-] out of [-] shares, which is too little."
"Hey, the world has changed, I still like the old world."
Everyone was talking in low voices, obviously they didn't approve of equity, how could there be land rewards directly?
Because I don't understand it, I don't approve it.
Li Xiao waved his hand, and immediately one of his subordinates stood up and explained: "Everyone, I am an official of the Beiping State-owned Enterprise Development Department, the sixth-rank official, and my surname is Huang. Now let me explain what equity is called."
Hearing this, everyone listened carefully.
The official of the state-owned enterprise industrial department surnamed Huang was transferred by Li Xiao. He went on to say: "Equity equity means to obtain a share of this enterprise, and to receive profit dividends from the enterprise every year. Permanent equity means that as long as the enterprise does not go bankrupt, the equity will last forever." It exists and is passed down from generation to generation. In fact, it is almost like a field.”
Hearing this, everyone became interested and faintly looked forward to it.
However, some people still questioned: "It's so nice to say, how much is this dividend? And the Duke is only [-] out of [-]. Aren't there fewer people like us?"
"Don't worry, listen to me."
The official surnamed Huang continued: "Do you think ten thousandths is very little?? I will give you an example. Based on the current annual profit of the Beiping Fertilizer Factory, the annual profit is 1000 million taels. If it is ten thousandths, The annual dividend is 1 taels!! Do you still think it is too little?"
Hearing this, everyone gasped.
The annual dividend is 1 taels, which is quite a lot!
Even Li Jinglong's tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, excluding the guards distributed to the tenants, would only produce a few thousand taels of silver a year, which is far from reaching this amount.
In this way, Li Jinglong is not at a loss.
Of course, this is calculated according to Li Jinglong's title, after all, there are only a few Dukes.
"Then if the title of Marquis is handed over to the land, how much equity can be exchanged for it?"
someone else asked.
Li Xiao said: "Marquis ranks five ten thousandths, earl two ten thousandths."
Everyone thought in their minds that five ten-thousandths is not bad, and it is also an income of 5000 taels of silver a year.
At the moment, many people are moved.
Another person asked: "By the way, the calculation was based on the calculation of the Beiping Fertilizer Factory just now. Where is the Nanjing Fertilizer Factory?"
Li Xiao explained: "The Nanjing Fertilizer Plant has not yet started construction."
Everyone: "."
Everyone was silent.
Nasty, totally numb.
Emotions are empty-handed white wolves, drawing cakes for everyone?
Li Xiao said with a smile: "Don't be impatient, everyone. Agriculture in the north is far less developed than in the south, and more fertilizers are used. Therefore, the fertilizer factory in Nanjing will only earn more than the fertilizer factory in Beiping! By the way, this benefit is limited to Today, after passing through this village, there will be no such shop, so hurry up and seize the opportunity.”
At this time, Li Jinglong also walked down with a smile.
"What are you waiting for?? After passing this village, there will be no such store. The national teacher speaks the same word. I was the first to hand it in. Why are you still hesitating?"
Li Jinglong also added fuel to the flames. He was in a great mood. He didn't expect such a good thing as a shareholding today. Li Xiao, Li Xiao, you are such a chicken thief. I even kept this matter from me.
After a while of silence, finally a Marquis gritted his teeth and stepped forward. "I'll hand it in too!"
As one person spoke, the rest also spoke.
"I hand it in!"
"I'll hand it in too!"
"It is my duty to contribute to the imperial court!"
After other people weighed the pros and cons, many people stepped forward one after another.
After all, even if you don't want to pay, it seems that there will be no good fruit to eat later.
It's better to hand it in now and get the benefits first.
Li Xiao looked at the scrambling of the people below, smiled and waved: "Everyone, don't crowd, line up, line up!"
Things have finally opened up a breakthrough, these fields have been collected, and the next step is the land of those powerful landlords! (end of this chapter)
