Wei and Jin Cooks

  Chapter 670 Convinced

Fu Tinghan saw that the people around the courtyard looked at Zhao Hanzhang with admiration and excitement, but also worried and timid, so he couldn't help but smiled, recruited the students who came to help, and said: "In the future, when you go to guide the laborers to dig the canal, you can tell them that we Why is there an urgent call for labor at this time?"

  Someone was puzzled and said: "Mr. Fu, our master said that the people are ignorant, just tell them what to do. There is no need to explain the reason, otherwise it will cause more trouble."

  Fu Tinghan said: "It depends on the situation."

He said: "There are indeed many ignorant people in the world, so they need to be enlightened. The matter of labor is closely related to them. Letting them know the reason will not only increase their knowledge, enlighten the people's livelihood, but also make them understand Hanzhang more. And the reasons for the county government to impose labor."

   "Doubts arise from ignorance, resentment arises from doubts, and finally conflicts arise," Fu Tinghan said, "This is a very dangerous thing, so we must put an end to it from the source."

  The students felt that what he said made sense when they heard it, so they agreed.

  It rained heavily the next day, and no one was able to go out. Zhao Hanzhang sat under the eaves with his chin propped up to watch the rain, and Fu Tinghan sat beside her, staring at the rain in a daze.

  A group of half-grown teenagers couldn’t sit still, and ran to the villagers’ houses next door to play in their coir raincoats, mainly to teach some children literacy and arithmetic.

  Influenced by the masters in the school, the teenagers also like to teach the illiterate to read and count to the illiterate.

  All the young and old people watched enviously, talked to them from time to time, and inquired about the military service by the way.

   "It's raining like today, we didn't go out to work, does it count as thirty days?"

  A boy said: "Of course it doesn't count."

  He said: "It counts only when he has worked. Otherwise, if it rained heavily for ten days and everyone didn't go to work for ten days, would it be considered ten days of service?"

  An old man on the side also glanced at the old man, and said: "Don't push yourself too hard, if it's another envoy who has to dig mud even in the rain, it will be hard work."

   "It's not only hard work, but it also kills people. Didn't fewer people die because of military service in the past?"

   "Well, that's how water conservancy works are. I've only been digging mud for two days, and I can barely lift my arms. It's much more tiring than doing field work."

  When doing field work, you can stop and take a break from time to time, but repairing water conservancy works is not good. Once you are slow, the government officials will urge you and whip you.

  The students couldn't help but look at each other when they heard it, and a little girl said softly: "Work harder now, and you can survive later."

She said: "When Shijun was in Luoyang, he got advice from an expert who was able to observe the sky. He asserted that the weather in the next few years would be abnormal, with uncertain droughts and floods, and severe droughts would occur in some places. That's why Shijun wanted to build water conservancy projects so eagerly. "

  Xiao Langjun on the side immediately nodded and echoed: "That's right, otherwise, why did Shi Jun suddenly ask us to dig dams and canals so hard?"

"This is not something that can be done in two or three months. It will take at least two or three years. It is to take precautions. If there is a flood at that time, the dams and canals built at this time can divert the flood when it is flooded, and store water for irrigation when it is dry. The big guy might just point to it and live."

  The villagers were surprised when they heard this, "We are going to have a catastrophe in Yuzhou? Then, why don't we offer sacrifices to the River God and Dragon King in advance?"

   "That's right, give more sacrifices, maybe the disaster can be eliminated."

   The teenagers were stunned, obviously they didn't think of this solution, but they knew it was wrong in their hearts.

  If ghosts and gods are useful, wouldn’t it be more effective for you to pray than them? You never said you should pray.

  But the youngsters who didn't know much couldn't find any words to refute for a while, so they could only look around at a loss, and then saw Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan standing under the gate.

  The teenagers were startled, and quickly got up to salute.

Zhao Hanzhang waved her hand indifferently. The rain had basically stopped at this time, but the courtyard was full of water. She avoided several puddles and walked forward, smiled at the villagers and said, "Don't make fun of these few people." Children, they are young, it will be bad if they take it seriously."

  The villagers dared not open their mouths at once, but their thoughts turned. What they said was true, but the envoy said that there were a lot of students, so begging the river **** and the dragon king was useless?

Zhao Hanzhang said to them: "The canals and dams are built for you, and they benefit the people of this side, so you have worked harder in the past few years, so that our descendants can relax in the future, and the chances of surviving in the face of disasters Also high."

  The villagers responded with a low yes.

Zhao Hanzhang smiled and said, "The land you have allocated has not yet been registered as a title deed, right? After a while, I will ask the people in the yamen to make a title deed for you. It is for Yongyetian. This land will I will farm for you forever."

  When the villagers heard this, their eyes lit up.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Except for extremely special circumstances, Yongyetian is not allowed to be bought or sold, so you can rest assured that no one dares to enclose your land, this piece of land will always belong to you, and the canals and dams you built with your own hands will be used by you. "

  The villagers immediately responded loudly, and some people directly knelt on the ground to kowtow to Zhao Hanzhang, their eyes and faces full of excitement.

  Fu Tinghan has been watching her all the time. This was the plan when resettling the refugees. However, because the yamen was short of manpower and the paper was more expensive at the beginning, they simply divided the land without registering it, let alone making a land deed.

   Unexpectedly, choosing this timing to speak out would achieve such an effect.

  Zhao Hanzhang nodded to Li Zheng who came over, and said with a smile: "Let's pass on this matter, so that everyone will be happy along with it."

  Lizheng immediately asked: "Dare to ask the envoy, is this the case in our entire county, or is it the case in the whole county?"

  Zhao Hanzhang said: "It is the whole Yuzhou, including Luoyang, all under my rule, this is the case."

  Lizheng's eyes brightened, and he immediately bowed in response.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Also, after the labor period, if someone cultivates the wasteland for three years and insists on paying taxes according to the reclaimed land for three years, the reclaimed land will belong to him and be used as permanent land. Among them, the wasteland is the first. Years of reclamation and cultivation, the tax will be halved."

  The villagers secretly cheered and looked at each other excitedly.

  Zhao Hanzhang said: "I will issue another official document for this order, and it is the same for all under my rule."

   Li Zheng also responded loudly like the villagers.

  By the time Zhao Hanzhang turned around and left, the villagers had long since lost their resentment about forced labor, and all became excited.

  With the title deed, the land will belong to them forever and ever, and no one can take it away.

   Even if they have settled down here completely.

  The news here, what Zhao Hanzhang and the students said spread rapidly after Zhao Hanzhang left. Not only the people in this village, but also other villages, and even other counties and counties also received the news.

   With the help of caring people, the mood of the people is rising day by day, and it doesn’t feel hard to go down the river every day to dig mud.

  The official documents issued by Zhao Hanzhang also arrived in the counties and counties, and the government offices of the counties and counties announced to the people that they would register and make books and land deeds.

  Of course, everyone is busy doing infrastructure construction at this time, and there is no time to do it yet, but Zhifang has already begun to get busy.

 kuang They began to make paper, and also made special paper suitable for house deeds. Government offices in various counties and counties were also placing orders in washi workshops.

   Zhifang immediately made a lot of money, but the counties and counties were a little short of money, so they reported to the governor's office to ask for money.

  So, paper is expensive. It takes a lot of paper to do so many things at once. Don’t you need to increase your expenditure?

  As soon as Zhao Hanzhang got the account of Zhifang, before she got hot, all over the world began to ask for money, so, the money just circulated in her hands.

   However, along with the paper, there are also various books shipped out, especially the newly compiled Thousand-Character Essay, which is very popular among enlightened children everywhere.
