But the farmer who faces the loess and his back to the sky every day still can't believe it!
After all, this field has been their most precious thing since ancient times!

Chapter 377 Shock!
If anyone's family has a few acres of fertile land, they don't have to worry about marrying a daughter-in-law, even a matchmaker has to step through the threshold!
As a result, the officials came in person and said they were going to distribute the land for them? !
The official smiled slightly when he saw this, and the officer behind him immediately took out a stack of land deeds.
"Old man, the government has verified that your family is now a total of five people."
"According to His Majesty's will, one person can get one mu of fertile land, so old man, five members of your family can get five mu of fertile land."
The official said so eagerly.
In ancient times, if the common people cultivated good fields instead of barren fields, then half an acre of land could satisfy a person with more than enough food and clothing.
This is true in the previous words. If you eat less, don't waste, and are more frugal, half an acre of land is enough to feed a person.
But in the current Datang, because of the developed trade and economic prosperity, the prices of vegetables, melons and fruits other than food have become relatively cheap.
Therefore, if one person has one mu of land, not only can people have more than enough food and clothing, but the quality of life can also be improved to a higher level!
For a family of five, five mu of land is considered a lot.
"Five...five acres of land?"
The old man exclaimed in shock.
The son, daughter-in-law, and two children behind him, a man and a woman, were also shocked when they heard the words.
"This... this is really five acres of land for our family?!"
The old man's son stepped forward and asked with a shocked look on his face.
The official nodded when he heard the words, then shook his head again, and he explained slowly: "The land allocated to your family to grow by yourself is indeed a total of five acres, but the ownership of this land still belongs to the imperial court. "
"You have no right to buy or sell this land, you only have the right to use the land to cultivate it yourself."
"In addition to paying the fixed grain tax every year, you also need to pay one-fifth of the harvest as rent to the court."
"The rest of the harvest belongs to you."
"Whether you eat it yourself or sell it, the imperial court will not interfere."
"By the way, the seeds every year will be provided by the court for you."
As soon as this word comes out.
Shocked!
The old man and his family were shocked when they heard the news!
"This...doesn't this mean that the one-fifth of the harvest rent we give to the imperial court is actually the seeds prepared for us in the coming year?"
The old man's son obviously needs to be smarter, and he understood immediately after hearing the words.
The official stroked his beard happily when he heard the words, and nodded, with a teachable expression.
"Yes! Your Majesty is really a holy king!"
"In this way, even if you encounter a famine year, you can still guarantee that you will have surplus food for next year!"
The officials began to praise Li Shimin involuntarily, but they did it sincerely. Who among the officials in the world is not grateful to Li Shimin?
Because their current salary and income are directly related to Datang's fiscal revenue!
As long as they are willing to work hard, the local fiscal revenue created by these local officials, after they complete the performance indicators, the performance bonus of their salary can be allocated to a part of the fiscal revenue they generate!
Just last month alone, the monthly salary he received has exceeded ten times the previous fixed monthly salary!
With this money alone, their family of three generations and more than a dozen people can have enough food and clothing, and even live a prosperous life.
And this is only the first month of his struggle!
Therefore, he believes that under His Majesty's wise leadership, Datang's bright future will get better and better!
At that time, they can get more bonuses.
So when they started working now, they naturally had to work hard.
Seeing this, many self-proclaimed literati and scholars began to criticize Li Shimin in the "Emperor Tang Newspaper", accusing Li Shimin of making a good officialdom full of money and hope.
But the words of these people, in Lin Xuan's view, are innocuous farts!
Because no matter what everyone does for a living, besides their dreams and pursuit of their ambitions, it's all about money.
Not to mention that today's officials work hard and actively to enjoy a better life for themselves and their families.
For example, officials have to support the elderly, wives and children at home, but which item of expenditure does not require money!
What I have to admit is that in the previous dynasties, the treatment of officials was really good.
But what we need to know is that every official will have his own mansion.
The more high-ranking officials, the bigger their mansions will be!
Like Datang: I was exposed by Princess Changle, please bookmark it: () Datang: I was exposed by Princess Changle, and the update speed is the fastest.
Chapter 378: The People Are Strong!
The bigger the mansion is, the more people there are in the mansion, and the more their expenses will naturally be!
And how can such a little monthly salary be supported?
In addition to the high salaries of some high-ranking officials and the many rewards from the emperor, they can maintain their lives.
Ordinary officials, if they only rely on their salaries to live, it is simply hard!
When they were at the bottom, they tasted the hardships of not having money.
After they become high-ranking officials, driven by Yu Wang, they will gradually become corrupt officials.
Now Lin Xuan asked Li Shimin to implement the method, which greatly eliminated the root cause of their corruption.
