The Nameless of the Common Clans

After passing the Puban, there were many more villages and pedestrians along the way, which was in sharp contrast to the hundred miles of no one in Luoyang. When Chen Mo left, he had built a huge manure pond in Leishou Mountain. According to Man Chong's statistics, the fertile land under Chen Mo's name now has at least 30% more income than in previous years. During the period when Chen Mo was away, the Wei family and other families in Hedong and even Li Qing's family had made indirect inquiries about the manure more than once.

For the aristocratic families, the 30% increase in food is not just a simple 30% increase in income. The food given to the tenants is fixed, and the surplus food is not just 30%.

This is just the simplest aspect. If you look at it from a broader perspective, if it is used in transactions, it means that they will have a heavier voice. After all, the world is in chaos now, and food is more useful than money.

Along the way, we can see many newly built wooden forts. These are the manors newly established by the people who moved from Luoyang. In order to calm the people, Chen Mo asked Man Chong to preserve the original villages as much as possible so that the migrated people can get familiar with them as soon as possible. Of course, Chen Mo could not allocate land to the rich families who own land. Now these newly built villages are all considered as gathering places for Chen Mo's tenant farmers.

"I heard that Chang'an is also working hard to resettle the people. I wonder how effective it is." Riding on a warhorse, Dian Wei, Bai Piao and Han Kai looked at the pedestrians coming and going on both sides, scratched the steel needle-like beard on his chin and said.

"What can we do?" Bai Pi pulled the reins, staring at the village in the distance, and said, "The lord was able to resettle the refugees so quickly because he took out all his land. How many fields in Guanzhong are Dong Zhuo's private fields? I'm afraid there are not as many as the lord's fields here, but there are millions of people moving to Guanzhong this time. Dong Zhuo needs land to resettle these people."

"What if there is no land in hand?" Dian Wei asked curiously, and seeing that he ignored him, he slapped him.

"Rob." Bai Piao grinned and glared at Dong Zhuo: "Didn't the lord say the other day that these migrating people would be the biggest hidden danger in Guanzhong and the root cause of the breakup between Dong Zhuo and the Guanlong nobles? We won't rest this time we come back. We will have to fight soon. Otherwise, the land in Hedong alone can't support so many people! What were you doing when the lord said this?"

"This... I don't know why, every time the lord said these things, I couldn't stop feeling sleepy, and then... cough~" Dian Wei looked at Bai Piao: "Do you think the lord knows some evil magic... no... magic?"

Bai Piao said speechlessly: "If that's the case, why would we need an army in the future? The lord can just go to the front and say something, and the battle will be won. Why do we need to kill the enemy? It's obviously you who don't want to learn, and you blame the lord? Do you know how Lord Cai evaluated the thousand-character essay that the lord wrote for you?"

"What does this have to do with Lord Cai?" Dian Wei was a little dumbfounded.

"The Thousand Characters Essay was created by the Lord for soldiers like you in the army, in order to give people like you who have made great contributions but have passed the age of reading a chance to learn to read. After reading it, Lord Cai once said that the Thousand Characters Essay is a classic of elementary education in ancient and modern times, which can be passed down through the ages. It is not difficult to write a thousand characters, but the difficulty is that there is no repetition of a thousand characters, and it is catchy. Do you know that Wei Ji not only came to ask for this book in person, but also offered a thousand acres of good farmland just to copy this book. If we want it, we have to copy it specially. The Lord wrote a book specifically for you, but you treat it as a worn-out shoe. Brother Dian, do you know that we now wish we could beat you every day?"

"So valuable!?" Dian Wei widened his eyes in astonishment. He knew that books were valuable, and many books were worth thousands of gold and were in short supply, but he had never heard of a book that could be exchanged for a thousand acres of good farmland.

"Why do you think the gentry and nobles in Hedong are so willing to help us with this migration?" Han Kai glanced at Dian Wei and said, "I really don't know why the lord is so good to you, a barbarian?"

Dian Wei licked his lips and ignored the two men. He took out Chen Mo's Thousand Characters from his arms and read them. He had seen the four words "system, immortal, and god" many times and had already recognized them. He read on... Dian Wei barely suppressed his sleepiness. After doing this again and again, Dian Wei finally put the bamboo slips back into his arms.

Dian Wei was very touched by Chen Mo's kindness, but he once again confirmed that he was not cut out for it. However, this book should not be wasted. It should be passed down as a family heirloom. When he has a son in the future, he will force him to finish reading this book even if he has to use a stick, so as to live up to the lord's kindness and kindness. It's time for the old Dian family to produce a man who is both civil and military.

Seeing Dian Wei's expression, Bai Piao and Han Kai tightened their reins and looked away. They couldn't act impulsively. Not to mention the bad influence, even if they really took action, they couldn't beat this guy. We are generals who lead troops, and we are different from this kind of reckless man. Besides, the lord has already agreed to let them copy it, so there is no need to envy this barbarian.

"Do you usually discuss everything with your generals like this?" Zang Hong sat in the carriage, listening to the conversation outside, and found it very interesting. He turned his head and looked at Chen Mo.

"Most of the time, it's like this, and it's also the method given by the teacher." Chen Mo nodded and said, "But if it's a big deal, I need to make a decision, even if it's wrong, I have to execute it."

"What does it have to do with me?" Zang Hong said in surprise.

"I remember that when I was a child, my teacher taught me knowledge. He never told me forcefully what to do, but quoted from other sources. Every time he thought about it, he could always make the disciples understand something. Therefore, the disciples thought that they would always discuss with the soldiers when they had nothing to do. Secondly, I can discover their talents, and secondly, I can gather the wisdom of others, so that I can learn a lot. Thirdly, it will also help them over time," Chen Mo said with a smile.

"I never realized that this is what my father taught me back then." Zang Hong smiled and shook his head. In fact, the main reason is that Chen Mo is a disciple who is easy to teach and is willing to think for himself. If it were his unsatisfactory son, he wouldn't know How many times had he been beaten by Zang Hong? Sometimes Zang Hong envied the old Chen family. Not only was Chen Deng now famous, but he was also as talented as him. Now there was Chen Mo, whose talent might be a little better than Chen Deng. Sometimes this Things, I really can’t envy them.

Chen Mo smiled and said: "To be taught by a teacher personally, for Mo, it is a blessing to be reborn."

"Believe me, even if you change your teacher, your achievements today will not be too bad. Sometimes talent is so unreasonable." Zang Hong shook his head and sighed.

Chen Mo shook his head, talent? My family knows my own affairs. If there is no help from the gods of the system, no matter how hard I try, I may not be as good as I am now. Therefore, at least I am not qualified to talk about talent. Only people like Yang Xiu and Xu Shu are called talents. I can only count them. Good luck.

"But since the teacher is here, this disciple still needs the teacher's guidance on many things during this period." Chen Mo changed the topic with a smile.

Even if the teacher refuses to stay, Chen Mo still has to carry forward the principle of making the best use of people. The marriage can be postponed, but the development of Hedong cannot be delayed at the moment. The foundation has been established, and the next step is to establish his own rules.

"Tell me, do you need help from me?" Zang Hongxiao asked.

"Today, in the Hedong land, the foundation has been planned and completed, but the rules need to be re-established. The disciples have had nothing to do these days and have made a lot of plans, but they have not yet been completed, including the rights of each government office, the restrictions between each other, and How to operate it well and effectively? In terms of laws, the Han Code is sufficient, but how to ensure the implementation is in place. The disciple has made several assumptions. The most critical part is that during the implementation process, there should be a unified criterion, which may There are mistakes, but they will not lead to serious mistakes. Officials have their rights, but this power cannot be too great. Once it harms people's livelihood, it must be eradicated immediately. But the person who did this, whether it is me or Manchuria, It's not appropriate to be pampered, you need a teacher to do it," Chen Mo said with a smile.

"In other words...you want me to be a bad person?" Zang Hong looked at this disciple speechlessly. He was really a man who did great things. He was so ruthless that he would even take advantage of his own teacher.

"After all, the disciples have to stay here. It's not good for the relationship to be too tense." Chen Mo didn't shy away, and handed Zang Hong the book he compiled into a book with a shy look. It looked very much like the first time he wrote it back then. Submit an article to the teacher and expect praise from the teacher.

"Bo Dao has really grown up!" Zang Hong sighed after reading it, looked at Chen Mo and said with a smile: "However, although I don't know everything about this method, I can still guess some. In this way, a county or even a state can It’s okay, but if you want to make it bigger, it’s difficult.”

To put it bluntly, Chen Mo's method is to divide the rights of various official positions in detail, implement them in place, and restrict each other to encourage the development of small households, but restrict the emergence of big families. Moreover, the tax guidelines are also in place. Big families can hire tenant farmers, but Household registration cannot be concealed, and the tenant farmers' taxes must be paid by the wealthy family on behalf of the tenant farmers, instead of just paying the taxes of their own family as in the past.

This is definitely something that offends people, and it is indeed more suitable for Zang Hong to do it. Whether Chen Mo or Man Chong does it, it will offend people. But Zang Hong is different. He has not lived here for a long time, and although he is not Chen Mo's subordinate, he is Chen Mo's teacher. , the reputation is enough, when the rules are established, Zang Hong pats his butt and leaves, while Chen Mo enjoys the benefits brought by Zang Hong, just like when the King of Qin reformed the law, although Shang Yang died, the Qin law continued to be implemented.

"This disciple also knows that being able to control the state and county is enough. As for the world, I don't dare to think too much. If there is a chance to reset the world in the future, I may come up with a better way." Chen Mo nodded.

In the final analysis, there is nothing unique about these strategies. The most important thing is that they are well implemented and monitored. In other words, there are enough people to do this. From the perspective of the speed of message transmission, the state and county are acceptable. If Expanding it to the whole world will easily cause trouble.

"Forget it, just think of it as a congratulatory gift from me." Zang Hong said with a smile, "I also want to see what happens in the world like that."

"Thank you, mentor!" Chen Mo said with a solemn salute.
