Chapter 1083

Listening to Xu Shu and Jia Xu's words, Zhang Xiu didn't feel surprised, because the land reform was a big move, or even an earth shaking event.

Throughout the five thousand years, there have been a lot of uprisings, all under the slogan of "land to the tiller", but in fact, they all failed and failed.

Only later generations of Huaxia achieved success.

Land reform was carried out thoroughly.

Zhang Xiu is also clear about the consequences of land reform, but he knows better that if he succeeds, his rule of the Qin Dynasty will be more solid and not easy to be shaken, because the peasants have land, and chaos will not happen for a long time.

As long as the people can live, there will be no chaos.

This is the people.

Only when people really can't live can they rise up and chaos emerge.

Even if it's difficult, it's worth it.

Zhang Xiu chuckled and said, "Yuanzhi and Wenhe, I have been thinking about land reform for nearly a year. In this year, I changed the draft several times and took all aspects into consideration. I am also clear about the difficulty of land reform, but it involves things for generations. If I don't do it, who will do it? Is it hard to save it for future generations? "

Jia Xu and Xu Shu were dumbfounded when they heard the speech.

Zhang Xiu continued: "you should be aware that in the past dynasties, once it comes to the end, there will be serious land annexation. Coupled with exorbitant taxes and levies, people will not be able to dig food in the ground, they will not be able to eat, and there will be chaos. The root cause is land. So I'm going to have a try. If it is successful, it will be a major event that will be remembered for generations to come. "

Zhang Xiu's words are full of determination.

It's even more indomitable.

What he has decided will not be changed.

This is Zhang Xiu's decision.

Jia Xu knew Zhang Xiu's mind and temperament. Once he had decided something, it was impossible to change it. So he said, "since your majesty has decided to do it, how are you going to push it forward?"

It's better to block than to dredge!

Zhang Xiu decided that Jia Xu could only follow the trend to see if he could make some adjustments.

Minimize risk.

This is what Jia Xuli can do.

Zhang Xiu's expression is solemn, not anxious, not impatient way: "about the promotion of land reform, I'm going to promote it in four aspects. Moreover, the promotion of land reform has not been achieved overnight, nor has it been accomplished in one battle, but has been carried out slowly. "

"First, land reform is not unconditional expropriation."

"Land should be returned to the state, which is our internal view. In fact, it's collection and exchange. When it comes to the land to be exchanged, the government purchases it at the corresponding market price as official land. "

"It's a cheap purchase."

"It's not an unconditional levy."

"If it is expropriation, the people will resist. But if it's exchange, at least the people will resist and will not be willing to, but at least it won't cause an uproar. "

"This is the first explanation to set the tone of land reform," Zhang said

Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and said slowly: "Your Majesty, what I can be sure of is. As soon as this policy comes out, it is likely that countless people will resist it. In other words, the people will not resist but will not cooperate. Because for the people, land is the lifeblood. Who is willing to sell land? It's like selling your ancestors. "

Xu Shu said: "what Mr. Jia said is true. I'm afraid this policy needs to be adjusted."

Zhang xiuzhengse way: "natural need!"

For the big plan, Zhang Xiu's heart is already in her mind.

He has the corresponding measures.

Zhang Xiu continued: "second, the land collected by the government should not be left idle, but should be cultivated by households. The people can even sublet the land allocated to them, but they are never allowed to buy or sell it. In other words, the land allocated by the government to the people is owned by the people, except that the ownership belongs to the government. "

"It's in the best interest."

"Of course, this still does not solve the problem mentioned earlier. No one is willing to sell the land."

"It's no hurry."

Zhang Xiu talked with great eloquence and continued: "through this measure, we can certainly win over countless people. For the common people, they have to pay taxes when they rent land or cultivate their own land. But by farming the government's land, or even subletting it out, there is no need to pay taxes, which can be seen at a glance. "

"Here, it involves the means for the people to sell their land."

"On the one hand, the government does not need to pay taxes on the land it cultivates. There are always many people who sell their land in order not to pay taxes. "

"But it's for ordinary people."

"Big families don't think about this, but they have corresponding means to fight against it."

"So there's another way."Zhang Xiu said: "this is the third point. I'm going to build a mausoleum near Shanglin garden in Chang'an. In the past, during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, countless merchants migrated to the mausoleum to build it. Now I am ready to follow suit. "

"In the name of building a mausoleum, we recruited the nobles and gentry to the mausoleum. In this way, they have to sell their property before they can move their family. Otherwise, the land left behind will be useless. "

"But there is room for negotiation."

"As long as they are willing to sell their land, they can be allowed to stay in their original places without having to move to the imperial mausoleum."

Zhang Xiu said: "this is the means for big families."

"Hiss!"

When Jia Xu and Xu Shu heard the speech, they took a cool breath.

It's a tough way.

If the first is to stabilize the situation and the second is to win over the common people, the third point is to cut corners and completely cut off the possibility of the great gentry remaining. Because now Daqin is strong, no one can compete with Daqin.

Jia Xu thought for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, even if it is so, if it is promoted and everyone is connected, I'm afraid it will also cause shock. It's not that easy to deal with. "

Zhang Xiu was not impatient and said: "so, this involves the fourth point. The land reform is not a one-time promotion, not to be completed overnight, but a step-by-step reform from point to area. First, select a county and reform from the county. Then, step by step, it will be extended to all parts of the country. Only in this way can local stability be ensured. Otherwise, the one-time promotion will definitely cause a great disturbance. I am very clear about that. "

"Your majesty

After hearing this, Jia Xu was relieved.

Since it's a pilot project, it's easy to do.

If we really follow the strategy of one-time promotion, then there will be wars all over the world and everyone will do their own things. I'm afraid that the whole Qin Dynasty will soon fall apart.

This is what Jia Xu does not want to see.

Zhang Xiu continued: "I'm going to choose Huai County in Hanoi as the pilot. As the base of Hanoi County, huaixian county is also governed by Hu Zhao, which makes it easier to promote the popular customs. Let's have a try in huaixian county first, and then consider further promotion. "

Both Xu Shu and Jia Xu agreed.

Neither of them disagreed.

After all, Zhang Xiu's consideration is quite comprehensive.

Zhang Xiu said the general direction of the strategy, but in fact, involves the details of the operation, there are many problems. He explained one by one, and after elaborating all the things that should be paid attention to, he finally said: "this matter will not be announced to the world. We will start from huaixian county. Next, I will go to huaixian in person. As for the construction of my mausoleum, you should arrange it. This can be done first. "

"Here it is

Jia Xu and Xu Shu bowed to answer.

They are clear about Zhang Xiu's determination and believe that Zhang Xiu's plan is likely to succeed.

After all, Zhang Xiu has enough prestige to deal with.
