The people in the county are beaming with joy. This year's autumn harvest has been sluggish and food prices have skyrocketed. Every household has to live on bran without food.
Now one family can receive more than ten kilograms of wheat, and they can eat flour for half a month.
There are happy people and there are unhappy people.
The dozen or so wealthy landowners in the city had sad faces at this time.
There are more than a hundred people in their families, including concubines, servants, and maids serving tea and water.
These people are gone, how can they enjoy it?
But the Heifeng Village has bright weapons, so these rich households can only endure it and wait for the officers and soldiers to come and wipe out the gang, and everything will be restored.
At this time, a fat middle-aged man came to the table with a group of Yingying Yanyan: "This is my eldest daughter-in-law, Alan, and my eldest daughter Cuixin..."
The obese middle-aged people introduced them one by one. The clerk who recorded the documents quickly recorded the faces of the twenty people. Then they entered a shed that was enclosed on all sides. When they came out, they had twenty more brands in their hands.
The clerk handed the sign to the obese middle-aged man and said, "Hold it, it will be very troublesome if it is lost."
The obese middle-aged man took the sign and was a little surprised to see that the appearance, address, and age of the people were clearly recorded on the sign.
It only took a while and it was done.
These brands are all provided by the system, and of course they are fast.
Just as the middle-aged man received the sign and was about to leave, he saw a woman handing over a bag.
The middle-aged man took it subconsciously and immediately discovered that there were twenty kilograms of wheat inside.
The middle-aged man was stunned. He didn't expect that he could also receive food.
At this time, the few people queuing up behind saw them and mocked: "Liu Da's family has more than a dozen houses full of food. Do you still want to come here to get food?"
Hearing this, Liu Dahu suddenly became anxious. He pointed at the speaker and shouted: "Xu Lezi, what are you talking about? Be careful I tear your mouth to pieces."
"Come if you have the ability, come!" Xu Lezi said provocatively.
Normally, Xu Leizi would not provoke Liu Dahu like this, but the situation is different now.
"What are you doing standing here? Leave quickly after receiving the sign." The clerk in charge of recording suddenly said.
Liu Dahu turned around and said with a smile: "Leave now, leave now."
The people around who were craning their necks to watch the show said to themselves that it was okay, the show was over before it even started.
The registration was carried out in an orderly manner, so the registration was completed.
The population on the panel increased to more than 500. Han Xi smiled when he saw this. He didn't expect that there were so many shady people hidden.
Those who register in the city also need to register outside the city, but registration outside the city is much more troublesome.
But as long as there is food, there is no need to worry about these people not coming to register.
So, January passed.
Han Xi was sitting in the government hall wearing an official uniform, and all the people in Heifeng Village became police officers or soldiers guarding the city. Looking at Yichuan City in the system panel at this time.
Population: 31,002
Maximum troop strength: 1550/1550
Money: 59 taels/silver
Popular support: 26
Food: 574 stones
Han Xi nodded with satisfaction. He didn't expect that there were so many gangsters in Yichuan. If he hadn't lured them with food, they might not have come out.
At this time, there were 1,550 imperial soldiers and 1,000 rural warriors in Yichuan County. These rural warriors were drawn from more than 20 villages in the four townships within the territory.
Only in this way can these villages and Heifeng Village be tied together.
"General, we went to the next county to bring back another 200 people." Xu Sanfeng came in from the Yamen Gate in a hurry.
Han Xi frowned and said to Xu San: "How many times have I told you, now I am the county magistrate."
"Look at my memory, Mr. County Magistrate." Xu San rubbed his head and looked a little embarrassed.
That's right, Han Xi not only re-registered his household registration, but also asked a group of township parties to go to nearby counties to attract people.
At this time, more than a dozen government officials walked in, and one of them, a burly man, reported: "Master Magistrate, we found out that a village suffered an avalanche, and half of the village was buried in the snow."
"Hey!" Han Xi was a little heartbroken. A few days ago, he suddenly saw that the population of the panel had dropped by more than a hundred, so he asked a dozen government officials to explore around.
"Let two teams of rural soldiers go over and deal with it, and then bring ten stones of food to appease the people. That's right, after you bring back the people and register them, they will be resettled in the village of Xuebeng!" Han Xi said.
"yes!"
Xu San and the burly man retreated together after receiving the order.
After watching the two people retreat, Han Xi looked at the paper on the table and started writing and drawing again.
At the beginning of spring, it was decided to let Chenjiagou plant potatoes first.
The people in Chenjiagou have grown potatoes once and have experience. They also know that potatoes are a high-yielding crop, so they are willing to plant them and will not resist.
As for taxes, Han Xi finally decided on [land tax]. Ten taxes and three taxes.
[Business tax] Ten taxes are four, [Salt mine and tea tax] Ten taxes are five, [Miscellaneous taxes] Twenty and one tax
The so-called miscellaneous taxes are very general. They feel like they are taxes set up for officials to collect bribes. However, Han Xi feels that there are big loopholes here that can exploit the system.
But now Han Xi's main focus is on land taxes.
Han Xi first listed three crops that will be mainly grown in the country in the future.
They are potatoes, corn, and wheat.
Potatoes have been tested by Han Xi, and it is not a problem to produce an average of twenty stones per mu per year.
The corn yield per mu is estimated to be around four stones.
Han Xi asked a few old farmers about the wheat yield per mu. It was very low. The yield was about five to seven bushels per mu.
Moreover, Han Xi has never seen wheat cultivation in later generations, and even if he wants to get some high technology, it will not work.
Therefore, Han Xi's initial plan was to give potatoes one stone and one tael of silver. Corn costs five taels of silver and one stone, and wheat costs three taels and one stone.
In this way, there must be a large number of farmers growing potatoes and corn.
Taking corn as an example, one family is allocated thirty acres of cultivated land.
One hundred and twenty stones of corn can be harvested in a year, which is worth six hundred taels of silver. If you pay 30% of it, you will still have 420 taels of silver.
Buying fifteen shi of wheat is enough for a family to live for a year, leaving 380 taels.
With so much money on hand, the people must be able to buy cloth, meat, oil, salt and other things.
In this way, the prices of these daily necessities will definitely rise, and merchants will be jealous of the money in the hands of the people and will bring in large quantities of goods to earn money.
In this way, Han Xi could collect a high amount of business tax.
Han Xi charges such a high business tax, which merchants won't bring goods in?
At that time, a piece of cloth worth three denarii would be sold at twelve o'clock, and the 40% tax would be nothing.
That's right, Han Xi wants to engage in inflation and charge a lot of money to cut the system's leeks.
Now after measuring the land in the entire county, there are 1,600 hectares of cultivated land, and one hectare of land will be harvested at 600 taels.
That year he could collect 960,000 silver taels.
Thinking of this, Han Xi couldn't help but laugh "hehehehehe".
