The tip of his nose smelled the scent of his lover mixed with the blood of weapons, which awakened the wildness of animals in his body. It's just that the soft and cool touch on the lips left after a little touch, along with the cold fragrance.

    An Yinong stretched out his thumb and rubbed his lower lip, squinting his eyes and smiling: "Shy?"

    Gu Zhengzhong, who was stagnant in the air, covered his face with a fan, and his eyes were bright red. Where did he still have the usual gentleness, but instead he was full of evil spirits.

    In just two seconds, the arrow was in front of the bandit leader.

    The leader of the bandit has long been accustomed to the speed of the arrows shot by the young generals on the opposite side. He did not expect the last arrow to be so fast and violent, and it was almost in the blink of an eye, and it was inevitable.

    "Ah!" He only had time to let out a short cry, and the next second he was shot through the eye by an arrow, which emerged from behind the skull.

      Know how many feet have been trampled by horses.

    The horse thieves suddenly lost their heads and did not know what to do for a while.

    "I, we surrender!"

    One, two, three... As more and more horse thieves lay down their weapons, the battle is coming to an end.

      It is not easy to look at these literati with the old eyes.

    "It's also the general's good command that I was lucky enough to kill the thief's head."

    The two of them compliment each other, and the sedan chairs carry people.

    "General, I want to lend you a team of soldiers." When the time was about, An Yinong put forward his own ideas.

    "Borrowing soldiers?"

    The general was a little hesitant, he didn't know what An Yinong did with his soldiers. Who knew that An Yinong directly shook out a piece of paper, which was the same action he used to shake out the wealth distribution map of the Jin family and the Bai family.

      With so much money in land, how can it be done without blood?

    It just so happens that these big landlords have committed crimes here, and a few people have been killed, right? It's not too much to take a house after someone kills it, right?

    After half a month.

    "Work! Work! Don't you have enough to eat?"

    The overseer threw a whip on the ground. If the adults said not to whip and hurt these prisoners, he should have thrown the whip on these people.

    "Hey, you guys have today too." Looking at these ex-horse thieves who were tearing up the wasteland, the overseer thought of his grandfather who died because of the horse thief, and he felt a great revenge in his heart.

    In a different direction, the overseer came to a young man with a warm water bottle. In this early winter, when the frost began to fall, the young man took off his coat and rolled up his trousers to open up wasteland.

    "Sir, are you tired? Would you like to drink some water?" The overseer was full of attentiveness, not only because the person in front of him was their new magistrate, but also because the wasteland that was opened up, In the future, it will be sold to the poor people in the county at half price.

    The overseer was a poor man himself.

    An Yinong glanced at him, took the kettle and took a sip: "You are the one before..."

    "Li Jian, back to the adults, I used to mine for the Bai family. You brought people to rescue us, and burned our deeds." There were still tears in Li Jian's eyes.

    Many of them here are miners who were previously kidnapped by Jinbai to dig copper. At that time, in order to keep secrets, miners lived in the most difficult environment, not to mention food and clothing, it was a good thing not to be beaten.

    The mortality rate of miners is very high. Most people will die within three years if they enter.

    Li Jian, who is in his twenties, looks like he is in his thirties. He originally thought he would die in it, but he did not expect that one day the new magistrate would bring a group of people down from the sky They were all rescued, and they were given compensation to go back to buy property to get married and have children.

    But Li Jian didn't leave, he wanted to follow the savior. Therefore, I signed up to be a supervisor. In addition to supervising these horse thieves and thugs, I occasionally helped out.

    An Yinong drank the water, returned the kettle to the foreman, picked up the **** and continued to work. He did it so carefully that others were embarrassed to be lazy.

      In winter, the slack farming turns wasteland into arable land.

    The main force of land reclamation is the thugs and horse thieves of the Jin and Bai families, all of which are not at fault.

    An Yinong promised to work hard, not only to get a little salary, but also to reduce the sentence. In theory, they'd be free if they did that for three years—before he left office, anyway.

    These prisoners were dubious about this, but they would have no food if they didn’t work, so they still chose to work.

    The prisoners raised their hoes high and smashed the frozen solid soil, and someone would pick up the stones inside and pile them aside. Then a group of older captives smashed the soil into pieces and mixed it with manure from plants and cattle and sheep dung.

      Stinky is a bit stinky, warm.

    There are so many people, only two teams of soldiers take care of them, naturally some people are just around the corner.

    The captives have escaped three times, and three times they were caught inexplicably. After three times, the prisoners gave up, and they decided to work obediently. At least there is still a place to eat and a place to sleep.

    An Yinong worked for a long time, and went back when it was getting dark. The Jin family and the Bai family were arrested. The big landowners in the county should be killed, and the punishment should be punished. The stall is waiting for him.

    "How many blacksmiths have they hired? All the iron tools found in their homes have been melted and re-made into agricultural tools. How are the brick and tile kilns built? Let the merchants go outside Shipping logs for foundations and pillars, did they go?"

    The new recruited master said as he walked: "Six blacksmiths have been recruited, and now they mainly make blades on curved ploughs, hoes and small iron pieces on spinning wheels. Repairing brick kilns and tile kilns. The workers have also been recruited and are building, and it will be completed in half a month. The merchants have also taken the deposit to the southwest to transport the wood."

    An Yinong nodded, satisfied with the efficiency of this new subordinate.

    The main inmates of the Jin and Bai families have all been executed, and their relatives have also been imprisoned for inspection one by one.

    The family wealth of these families is gathered together, even if half of the gold and silver are distributed to the garrison, the rest is enough to buy more than half of Dingsha County.

    Afterwards, An Yinong took the army to the houses of the big landowners, killing three and leaving five. At the same time, he harvested a large amount of land, livestock and other materials.

    With money, people, and land, An Yinong's plan can finally begin.

    The first step is to divide the land.

    The land harvested from these big landlords adds up to more than 100,000 mu, and they are divided into thirds according to the upper, middle and lower. Among them, 30,000 mu is reserved for raising cattle and planting pasture, and the rest is bought for ordinary people at 70% of the market price (rich peasants and landlords are not allowed to participate in the sale and purchase). The money for buying the land is allowed to be settled in three years.

    In this way, Dingsha County originally had less than 10% of the middle peasants (they had enough land for self-sufficiency without renting other people's land), but now it has risen to 30%.

    The previous 80% of the poor peasants (who owned a small amount of land or had no land and had to rent other people's land) dropped to 30%.

    There are also some middle peasants who become rich peasants (who need to hire others, but also work in the fields themselves).

    The second step is to open up wasteland.

    The purpose of land reclamation is to let poor people who have no land and no money to buy land have their own arable land, solve their hunger problem, and stabilize their hearts.

    So the wasteland that is opened will be sold to them at half the price of the lower land.

    The third step is to build government welfare housing (for the poor in the county).

    In An Yinong's plan, a welfare housing community is a small new village. People living in dilapidated houses in slums live in them, and they have a home that can shelter from the wind and rain.

    Of course, this also means that they will move out of Dingsha County, and their household registration will also be transferred outside the city.

    When the food and clothing are satisfied, he can spare manpower to develop the economic crops and animals of Dingsha County, as well as build roads and re-plan Dingsha County.

    The rice has to be eaten one bite at a time, and the road has to be taken step by step. It is still too far to say that, and now he is facing the issue of land reclamation.

    It has entered the early winter season, and I heard from the local old man that snow is only a matter of these days, so he seizes the time every day to open up wasteland.

    If it is not possible to open up a thousand acres of wasteland before the snow falls, there will be many poor people who will not be able to get arable land next spring.

    An Yinong and the master said as they walked, they entered the county and walked onto the main road.

    Winter is here, and Dingsha County is rather lively. On the street, you can often see food shops selling a bowl of mutton soup for three cents, sprinkled with a little local spices, and sweating all over after drinking, not to mention there are How comfortable.

    It happened that An Yinong was hungry at the moment, so he chose a random one and asked for a bowl of mutton soup and a cake. Sit down.

    "Your mutton soup and noodle cake." The things arrived quickly, An Yinong picked up the cake, shredded a little bit, and threw it into the mutton soup where the two pieces of mutton could not be seen.

    "The shopkeeper is very good, today's mutton soup is quite a lot." A herdsman walked into this mutton soup shop with a bunch of money, and he bought a big bowl of hot mutton soup for three cents The mutton soup, and spent money to buy a few slices of roast mutton and a cake.

     

    In fact, the most important thing is that the government has made up for the money collected this year for every shop that used to collect double taxation.

    In addition, the previous sheep were bought and sold by the two companies, Jin and Bai. It's okay now, the government has unified pricing, and both sellers and buyers benefit.

    "Our new magistrate must have the courage. After so many years, I never imagined that the white family of the Jin family, which is more arrogant than the emperor's old man, would be so uprooted. I went. In the execution room, I watched the Jin family and the Bai family, as well as the horse thief, fall to the ground." A diner said.

    "No, thanks to our county magistrate, my family's land that was robbed came back, and I bought two more acres. My mother-in-law said that I will raise a few more sheep next year."

    When they talked about the changes in Dingsha County during this period, their smiles never stopped.

    Hundreds of thousands of acres of land are allocated to the common people, almost every household has a few more plots of land, and a little more confidence in life.

    Diners sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect our county magistrate to look like a white-faced scholar, and to do things so resolutely. Good! We in Dingsha County can be considered a capable person."

    There were also good ones in the former magistrates, but unfortunately, they couldn't fight the gold and white, and they lost their lives in vain.

    An Yinong bowed his head and ate dinner silently. He was dressed as a herdsman and wore a thick hat. People walking on the road did not recognize him.

    The people of Dingsha County are really easy to satisfy. An Yinong just moved two families and let them share a few acres of land, regaining the freedom to fetch water and a little more money, Their faces were already full of smiles.

    After dinner, he returned to the county office by himself, and went through the back door, which was opened by the concierge Wei master. The Jin family and the white family have collapsed, and he still hasn't left. Such a master is so willing to watch the door for him.

    His friend came to him: "Why do you bother?"

    Wei Menfang held his knife: "It's not bad here, I'm here to retire."

    An Yinong returned to the backyard, just took off his hat and drank a sip of hot tea, when the county magistrate knocked on the door and came in, holding a stack of booklets in his hand: "Sir, there were many Jin and Bai families before. The tax collected has already been made up.”

    "Yeah." An Yinong nodded, "I heard from the old man in the county that there will be heavy snow this year, and they will send people from house to house to inform them that they can strengthen the house and collect firewood in time."

    The county magistrate retired with a new mission. Since An Yinong brought the garrison into the city, the old people in the county government haven't rested.

    But this busyness just stabilized these people. Everyone is concerned, worried that the county magistrate will settle the account with them, but since they are still used now, does it mean that the past will be forgotten?

    The county magistrate smiled and went to the front yard, ready to pack up and go home, not wanting to meet two acquaintances as soon as he went out.

    These two are no longer wearing yamen uniforms. They took it off in front of the magistrate. Recently, they wanted to wear it back, and they have found a lot of people.

    "Sir..." They walked over with a smile on their faces, holding gifts in their hands.

     "Don't! I'm not ready to take off my official robes and leave, you two... Hey, the luck is bad, there's no way." Officials, it's not a fart in front of a serious magistrate, he himself is a mud bodhisattva crossing the river.

    After walking far, the county magistrate looked back and threw his sleeves: "Unfortunate."

    These two former yamen looked at the county magistrate and avoided them like the plague. Thinking about the mess at home and the mocking eyes of others, they felt remorse in their hearts.

    You said, why didn't they insist on it in the first place, why did they have to be smart?

    One of them shook his head and gritted his teeth: "The Jin family is gone, his wife's family is still there, I'll go find him!"

    The other stood blankly for a moment, stretched out his hand and gave himself a slap.

    "Lao Liu, Lao Liu, isn't it bad to wear yamen and serve in the yamen? Going to hold the stinky feet of the Jin family and losing my job, I can't buy land now. , the mother-in-law can't be separated, it's really cheap! Hey!"

    The author has something to say:

    An Yinong: Thanks for the gift of nature~
