Although Jilin Xingdusi and Nuergandusi are both in the same city, their management scope is different.

One belongs to the military household area and the other is in the Jimi area.

To put it bluntly, you cannot become fat by eating in one sitting.

No matter how much Zhu Yixi longs for the north, he cannot cover all places in one go.

Stopping in Jilin is the best choice at present, but it is not the final step.

The area from the south of Jilin to the north of Kaiyuan belongs to the boundary of military settlements. As long as after three to five years of reclamation, if nothing happens, these places will become the granary of the Northeast.

When the time comes, the best plan is to help the city step by step, station troops, and then turn it into a country.

With roads as lines and castles as nodes, they expanded step by step. Ji Mi's tribe became the best thugs and was absorbed into the Ming Dynasty system.

As a result, the emperor and the court issued a land exchange policy:

All soldiers in the army, whether they are officers, soldiers, or nobles, will have their land doubled as long as they change their land from Guannai to Liaodong.

In other words, if there are 100 acres of Xundian in the pass, then it will be 200 acres in Liaodong area.

For those nobles above baron, the emperor mandated that two-thirds of their land must be transferred to Liaodong.

As soon as this statement came out, all the mansions in the capital were frightened.

This is too cruel for them.

Anyone who reaches the rank of earl or above basically joined the army during the Huguang shogunate period, and part of their land is in Hubei Province. These have now become good irrigated land, with two crops a year, and their value has increased several times.

After arriving in Nanjing and the Northern Expedition, the land moved to Hebei and the Shuntianfu area. These are all good lands.

The scale is naturally not small.

Let’s not mention the 100-100 points of merit for the moment, let’s just say that the emperor’s rewards after he ascended the throne in Nanjing and moved the capital to Beijing were definitely many.

Merely to compensate for the loss of title, ten hectares of land were given to earls, fifty hectares to marquises, and one hundred hectares to dukes on the honorary lands specified by the court, which was enough to pass on the family.

Xuntian cannot be bought, sold, transferred, or divided, and can only be confiscated by the emperor.

Take Zhao Shu, Duke of Fou, as an example. Even though he was not keen on expanding his land and just passed down poems and books, his family's land now exceeds 200 hectares, which is 20,000 acres.

Without him, the Duke's annual salary reaches 5,000 dan, plus 5,000 silver coins, and official salary. After excluding the expenses of the mansion, there are only 4,000 to 5,000 dan left a year.

At this time, the bank still has to pay interest for depositing money, so the only option is to expand the industry.

Buying shops, doing business, and using the money earned to purchase land, in just a few years, the land reached 20,000 acres.

In today's world with narrow investment channels, buying and selling land is the best way to preserve value.

Naturally, land annexation is inevitable.

The emperor could reluctantly control the sale of land and could only impose deed taxes on land annexation, but he could not restrain it because it was against the entire world.

To take the most extreme example, ordinary people have to sell their fields to raise money in order to save their parents. Can you prohibit them from buying and selling?

Under such circumstances, due to the arrival of upstart groups in Beijing, the land annexation in the entire Hebei region is the most serious.

The prefect of Shuntian and the governor of Hebei both admitted that twenty-three percent of the land within their jurisdiction was purchased by nobles, and the rest was also purchased by soldiers from the Beijing camp. Only 20 to 30 percent of it was really left to ordinary people.

People from Shaanxi make their home in Hebei. Although it is inappropriate for the dove to occupy the magpie's nest, this is the meaning.

Thinking of land annexation, the emperor could only ask for replacement.

For low-level officers, only inducements can be used, while for high-level officers, there are mandatory requirements.

The replaced land was rewarded to those officers and soldiers who had made meritorious service from Liaodong. Update without error@

Because this time in the Liaodong army, there were many good family members recruited in the capital, and land was given to them. In a sense, it was considered as allowing them to buy a family business.

The army was about to return triumphantly, and the city of Beijing was filled with joy for a while. The merchants were rejoicing and kept bringing in goods, preparing to make a fortune.

Who doesn’t know that in this war, the Jingying camp has stolen the Manchu lair and is full of oil and water, so it will definitely spend a lot of money.

one. (This chapter is not finished yet!)

Chapter 70 Land, land

At that time, merchants gathered in Beijing, and caravans traveling from north to south gathered, waiting for the fat sheep to return to Beijing.

There was a three-day banquet in the palace, with singing and dancing, and the emperor and his ministers celebrated together. In the early dynasty, rewards were given based on merit, ranging from civil servants and generals to officers and men in various ministries.

Not surprisingly, what the military is most happy with is land.

When the Ministry of War made statistics, the Ministry of Household's face turned green: 70,000 people, in exchange for merit points, a total of one million acres of land would be distributed.

The civil servants appropriately went to the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion to see if they could substitute gold and silver, but were kicked out in the blink of an eye.

After complaining, the Ministry of War was reprimanded by the emperor.

Zhu Yixi also had a rare pleasure. She went to the queen's concubines one after another in the evening, and no one was left behind.

One round after another, sometimes three people played landlord, or even four people played mahjong. This ridiculous scene lasted for half a month.

After having so much fun, he actually felt very tired, even more tired than fighting on the front line.

There is a saying that I am tired of saying.

After eating all the abalone, when he saw a woman, he felt a little pain in his back and felt flustered.

Of course, this is definitely like a New Year's holiday. People are weak after the New Year, and it's nothing else...

However, in view of this, Zhu Yixi still fasted for three days to cultivate his body and mind. There was not a single palace maid by his side, they were all eunuchs.

It was only then that Zhu Yixi suddenly realized that it was no wonder that ancient dignitaries liked to play with pedophiles. It turned out that it was really because they were tired of playing.

But he is good and can persist to the end.

He sat on the chair and exhaled, then reached out and rubbed his forehead for a while.

Just after not being exposed to those things for a few days, he actually became a little irritable.

This is not good, really not good.

As expected, Hunjun came step by step.

When a country reaches its highest peak in its own hands, it will naturally become tired of government affairs and indulge in pleasure, thus turning the dynasty from prosperity to decline.

"Where are you going!"

Zhu Yixi patted her face and made a snapping sound.

The eunuchs on the side were frightened and quickly knelt down to apologize.

"Get up, I'm fine."

Zhu Yixi unfolded the memorial and began to look at it carefully.

There are not many events nowadays, and the busiest thing in Beijing is the land replacement.

The honorable nobles were as busy as ants on a hot pot, and one by one they made all kinds of mistakes.

Some want to claim they are sick, and some want to take the madam route and have the madam come to see the queen and ask for forgiveness.

However, they were all rejected.

The emperor has been indulging in the harem and ignoring them.

Under the strong demands of the cabinet, the nobles had no choice but to compromise and report the matter unwillingly. First update@

When these statistics were collected, the Ministry of Household Affairs was shocked.

Duke Bozinan, these fifth-level nobles, only have more than 300 people, and the land they replaced exceeds 20,000 hectares or 2 million acres.

It actually covers an area of ​​four million acres.

In other words, in just a few years, these few hundred people owned four million acres, and they were all prime cultivated and irrigated land.

If you add even larger soldiers, the scale will be beyond imagination. .
