After rebirth, I became the stupid son of the Hou family

Jiang Chen watched the villagers gather around him, and everyone said with concern:

"Sir, please take the people away quickly. When they really bring the people here, you won't be able to leave even if you want to. Those bastards he raised are specially used to deal with us."

Jiang Chen looked at everyone's concerned eyes and said to everyone:

"Folks, I can't leave at this time. If I leave, they will still come to bully you. Are you willing to let them rent at four dou per acre? What we have done is not in vain. He fought. So what's the point?"

The villagers shouted in unison:

"No, who is willing to pay them such a high rent? Then we will all starve to death."

"Sir, it's not that we don't want to fight with them, but we can't fight with them. Didn't you listen to what Manager Ma said? If we don't pay the rent as required within three days, they will rob it themselves. We can’t compete with them, so what should we do?”

Jiang Chen said to Ah Fu:

"Go to the kitchen and get a pair of chopsticks."

Ah Fu ran over in confusion and brought the chopsticks in front of him.

After Jiang Chen took it, he said to a villager in front of him:

"Brother, I'll give you a chopstick and see if you can break it."

The villagers looked at Jiang Chen in confusion. He took it from Jiang Chen's hand and easily broke the chopsticks.

He said to Jiang Chen:

"Sir, this is too simple."

Jiang Chen handed him another pair of chopsticks and said;

"Brother, please break these chopsticks."

Everyone looked up and stared at Jiang Chen, not understanding what he was going to do.

When the man took a pair of chopsticks into his hand, he couldn't get it no matter how hard he tried.

At this time, Jiang Chen took the chopsticks from his hand, held them up in his hands, and said to everyone:

"Everyone has seen that a chopstick can be broken easily, but a pair of chopsticks is not easy to break. I just use this example to let you see that a person's power is insignificant, and The power of a group of people is different. In other words, you cannot fight against Guanshi Ma on your own. You must unite and deal with them unanimously, letting them know that you are not easy to mess with. Then you will no longer be afraid of them coming. I'm exploiting you. Do you understand what I mean?"

One of the young villagers was inspired by Jiang Chen's words. He stepped forward and said to Jiang Chen:

"Sir, let's unite together and no one will pay rent until they agree to our terms, and then we will hand it over to them."

Jiang Chen nodded to them and said:

"You understand very well. I am just teaching you the first step, how to fight for the benefits you deserve. You may have been living here for generations, are you willing to let your children and grandchildren also suffer these great consequences? Are you exploited and oppressed by landlords? You were born on the land under your feet, and you have the right to own this land. But now these lands are occupied by those powerful people. Let me ask you, how hard have you worked so hard in the past year? After hard work, you will be the ones who are hungry in the end. But those landowners who are comfortable and do not work, eat, drink and have fun. Is this fair to you?"

As soon as Jiang Chen finished speaking, he heard them shouting loudly:

"It's not fair. We don't want to be bullied and exploited by them like this, but we have no power. Where can we go to reason? Even if we go to the emperor, he will not care about us poor people. Young Master, you follow us Tell me, how can I avoid being bullied by them?"

At this time, the villagers were already ignited by Jiang Chen's words.

Everyone's expectant eyes turned towards Jiang Chen.

Seeing that everyone's enthusiasm was ignited, Jiang Chen said to them:

"Our villagers here all make a living by farming. Only when we have our own land can we not be busy in times of drought or busy in times of disaster. The land should originally belong to you people who know how to farm, so we We have to find a way to take back all the land, don’t you think so?”

Jiang Chen's words greatly inspired the villagers. This was something they had never dared to think about. Now they knew that common people like them also had the right to own land.This made them yearn even more, and they were eager to know what to do.

"Then what should we do, Master, do you want to teach us?"

Jiang Chen asked everyone to calm down and said:

"Folks, if you want to get the land, we have to fight for it. It cannot be solved with one or two sentences. So the food must be eaten one bite at a time and the road must be walked step by step. I guess they should also bring people with them. Now that they’re here, it’s up to us how to deal with them.”

The young man who just spoke said to Jiang Chen:

"Young master, it's time for us to become a team. Don't worry, we all go home to get the guy. If they dare to attack the master, we will deal with them together. Don't let them in charge take control of us. snatched the food from their hands."

The villagers heard what he said and responded one after another.Everyone dispersed and went home to get their things.

Liu Huaian had never seen anything like this happen before, and he still said to Jiang Chen uneasily:

"Jiang Chen, if you incite their emotions like this, something big might happen. If there really is trouble, and Prime Minister Hu is offended, and we are removed from the list, then it will be difficult for us to step in again in the future. Official career. I advise you not to be too radical. For thousands of years, the emperor has given land to princes and princes. Furthermore, it is in the hands of court officials and merchants. There has never been a dynasty that would give land to They are all distributed to ordinary people. If it is like what you said, then Chaoyan will be in chaos."

Jiang Chen looked at Liu Huaian in front of him and said:

"Have you ever heard of the famous saying about governance that water can carry a boat or capsize it? If you want the court to prosper for a long time, the ruler must be people-oriented. Only the common people can live and work in peace and contentment and narrow the gap between the rich and the poor. The gap. Then the foundation of the court will be stable. Just like the situation here, the villagers have worked hard for a year. But in the end they can't even take care of food and clothing. How do you let them live and work in peace and contentment? Poverty leads to change, which is the most unstable society Factors. As far as land is concerned, it is in the hands of a very small number of people. Poor people like these who should own land rely on such a deformed renting method to serve the big landowners. Let alone a year later. With a meager income, we don’t even have the most basic rations to survive. How can we feel happy? Once people are forced to a certain level, they will rise up to resist. Once more people are devastated, the country is basically close to destruction. Not far away.”
