Jiangning County.
The county magistrate had been beheaded, so the speaker naturally became the county magistrate. His surname was Hu, and his single name was white.
He actually dreamed that one day he would be able to kick the people above him away, and he would also hear how the 'Master' felt.
But I never thought it would be in such a way and in such a scene...
Wu Xiuyan was executed, and his family was also in trouble. Not only was all the family's financial resources left, but it was also unclear whether the two daughters could be spared the tragic fate of Jiaofangsi.
But Hu Bai couldn't protect himself now, and he couldn't care about so many things.
Uh-huh!
The blood on the head on the city wall has dried up, and it is so pale that people dare not look at it.
The shops in the city are almost closed, and there are only people from the government on the road, not ordinary people.
Eunuch Li left Jiangning County with satisfaction after seeing this head. He had said before that he would keep three people, all of whom were rugged men with big shoulders, round waists and thick beards.
Their main duty is to protect the four surveyors.
In fact, the surveyors themselves were frightened by such noise. Fortunately, they still remembered their mission. After the chaos subsided, the four of them went to find Hu Bai and reported: "Hu Xian Cheng, no matter what, we must first remove Qing Zhang's Things have been arranged, but if there is still no progress..."
Hu Bai waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, no, there is progress, there must be progress, but this..."
He looked embarrassed, because there were three big men standing behind these four people, and there were some things he didn't dare to say.
The leading surveyor is named Jiang Wenhuai. He has always been the one to communicate, and he is somewhat discerning. "First do the big things, then the small ones, first the easy things, then the hard things."
"Oh, yes, yes, big first and then small."
It turned out that the previous magistrate had never considered how to clean up Qingtian, but now he suddenly mentioned that he wanted to do it. Hu Bai was enthusiastic, but he didn't know where to start.
"Hu Xian Cheng, Wu Zhi before... Wu Xiuyan mentioned that the Zhao, Chen and Li families are the most powerful in Jiangning County. Presumably the rest of the people are also waiting to see what these three families do. It would be better to use the name of the county magistrate to appoint the heads of these three families. Invite us, and when the time comes to decide on the scope, we will start. These are big landowners, and only one person needs to sign for thousands of acres of land, so it will go faster."
"Yes, yes." Another person also thought this was good, "When these three families are finished, we can produce tens of thousands of acres of fish scale atlas, which will also be an explanation to the higher ups."
New fish scales album?
Hu Bai perked up upon hearing this.
Yes, yes, we must come up with phased things as quickly as possible. Otherwise, ten days later, if someone comes to ask about the progress, they are still slow. Whose head should be chopped off then?
but……
"It's okay to invite them. But of these three, we can only invite two at most."
"Hmm?!" the big man behind the four surveyors snorted angrily, "There are other things like this. Which one is the other one?"
"No, no, no, that's not what I mean. Don't be impatient. The family I mentioned that I can't come is the Zhao family. Because that talented man from Jiangning, his whole family has been confiscated, so naturally he can't come."
Forehead……
It turned out to be like this, the atmosphere was a bit more relaxed.
Hu Bai asked: "Then what should be done with the Zhao family's fields?"
Jiang Wenhuai thought for a moment, "We raised this issue during our training in Beijing half a year ago. What should be done with the crime fields of a criminal's family? It was decided at that time that the government would take it back. But there are some troubles in the details.
According to regulations, the newly compiled fish scale atlas requires the signature of the head of the household, but these people are not qualified to sign. It is unclear how many fields he owned because the person died. I originally thought that in this case, it would be better to follow the land deeds. At least some of the fields have land deeds that can be explained clearly. However, after traveling in Shandong, I found that there were also flaws. "
Hu Xiancheng didn't understand, "What's the flaw?"
"The owner of the field deed is no longer here, so the field deed will be left to others to deal with. If we and you, Hu Xiancheng, deliberately hide the field deed, won't this cause the field to be hidden again?"
"Oh, no, no, no, I don't dare, I don't dare."
"Just giving an example. So this time in Jiangnan, this part of the land will not be divided into deeded and undeeded. First, measure the land with owners, and the remaining unowned land, whether it belongs to Guan Guan Jia's family or Gui Guan Those in the Yi family are all ownerless. In this way, they will all be recovered by the government. There is also a method for unified recovery, and the signature is responsible. After the recovery, they will be unified and distributed to the landless people. In the new fish scale atlas, who owns the land? Whoever signs it, of course, can also have their fingerprints pressed.”
In other words, it is still released to the lower class people.
This method cannot be said to be perfect. In fact, the people below deliberately left a piece of land and did not display it on the data, but the higher-ups still don't know. The people nearby would not mind such noisy matters, and many people actually had no idea what was going on inside the government.
There is actually no good way to do this. If the surveyor himself must collude with the local people, there is no way to prevent it.
It can only be threatened with human life.
Just like Zhu Yuanzhang, let the craftsmen sign the bricks they made.
The fish scale atlas also requires the signature of every surveyor. If it is found in the future that the number you reported is very different from the actual number, you will lose your head.
This means that the difference is very big, and there is nothing that can be done about the subtle differences. Even with modern technological means, this cannot be prevented.
And surveyors generally use local ones? Or don't use the local one?
There is no local language, there are differences in dialects, and it is difficult to communicate. With local money, he has the incentive to buy a piece of land in his own home.
So after much deliberation, it was better to find a 'translator' instead of a local one than to ruin Qingtian.
The specific implementation of the policy is like this, and different places will encounter different problems. If you want to demand 100% perfection, you will be embarrassing yourself.
In Zhu Houzhao's mind, if he pursues ten points and finally achieves eight points, then thank God.
The imperial court has also established a 'look back' verification system, and when the time comes, it will be good to focus on unowned farmland.
This method, to be precise, is robbing the rich and giving to the poor.
In fact, the other two families were already panicking.
…
"It's really a treacherous eunuch in power, and there is no daylight. A seventh-level county magistrate who has lived in poverty for ten years finally asked an eunuch to behead his head in front of the county government! What kind of world is this, what sign?! Has there been such a ridiculous thing since the Qin and Han Dynasties? thing?"
"Brother Li, now is not the time to talk about this. It is useless to just curse a few words. It is estimated that the government officials will come soon. By then, they have a knife on their neck and want us to express our stance. What should we do? This is the time. It’s important. As for you saying that what they did is unpopular, they have made it clear that they are going to fight you hard!”
"Brother Chen, your clan uncle is a fourth-rank official in the court. You are my hope. If you ask me what to do, I am just flesh on the sword. I can't say a harsh word."
"Didn't I write a letter? But the clan uncle said that Liu Jin's matter was decided by the emperor, and even the Duke of Wei could not come out. Moreover, there have been changes in Beijing recently, and a minister of the Ministry of Justice was sent down to investigate those who opposed it. Officials of Qingtian Order.”
The head of the Li family gritted his teeth, "Then this is going to force us to death! Isn't it possible that the imperial court, which doesn't care about people's support at all, is afraid...isn't afraid?"
"Brother Li, be careful! In my opinion, the disaster of the Zhao family cannot happen to us. The court is just trying to scrape some money..."
The head of the Li family cried out in grief and anger, "The court will still collect taxes based on this next year! The ancestral system of preferential exemptions for the gentry will also be changed!"
…
boom!
This is the Chen family's mansion. Suddenly there was a loud bang, as if someone had broken in.
The two of them trembled in their hearts, something happened.
So he went out in a hurry, especially the one named Chen, who was so anxious that he was sweating. As a result, when he went out, he really responded to the saying, "Whatever you are afraid of will come to you."
Jinyiwei! !
"Which one is called Chen Shou?"
The big man holding the knife said arrogantly, without waiting for anyone to answer, "Someone told me that your Chen family is also secretly working together with Zhao Mingfei and other thieves to secretly obstruct the implementation of the imperial government's national policy, so you have to go back with us."
Plop!
The head of the Chen family fell to the ground, "It's over, everything is over."
On the contrary, it was the man named Li who suddenly understood a lot at the Lingtai. There should be no more nonsense about this matter. The government is still investigating, and someone may be implicated!
What’s even more frightening is that what he just said is considered to be another connection with the Chen family? !
Jin Yiwei walked up to Chen Shou and looked at the people next to him suspiciously, "Are you from the Chen family too?"
If the answer is yes, then you will definitely be taken away. This is the crime of confiscating your home!
The head of the Li family shook his head stiffly, "No, it's not."
Unexpectedly, Jin Yiwei smiled solemnly, "Okay, it seems there is a big fish. What are you discussing when you get together? How about we go together?"
