In fact, although Yang Feng made the style of painting very violent, he has always hidden himself in the current moral system.

In other words, he did not exceed the acceptance standards of the people.

He is a good person.

He is really a master of the sky.

At this time, the people still believed in the legendary lord and wise king...

This is also inevitable. With the current moral concept of the people, a republic without emperors is still unimaginable. It is natural for the emperor to rule them. Their yearning for a better life is just a saint lord and a group of great masters in the sky, and then they can eat and wear warmth. But it is impossible to expect them to have a higher awareness. In the future, these need to be gradually understood through education, especially the enlightenment movement in thought.

But you can't expect to achieve this in a short time.

This process can even be very long.

Maybe it will take decades to truly awaken them, or even hundreds of years. This thing really doesn’t happen overnight.

So who is Yang Feng in the moral concepts of the people of Zhenjiang at this moment?

Loyal minister!

We will protect our hosts from thousands of miles away, fight against rebels, sacrificial decrees, and punish evil and eliminate evil.

What is this not a loyal minister?

The rumors about him were all slander, and he did not usurp the throne and became the emperor. Even if he had filmed all the officials in Nanjing, he could not change his essence as a loyal minister.

For ordinary people, the real loyal minister is to take all these bastards.

He was the official Governor of Kaiyuan Bo, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and brought a large army to attack the rebels. He was holding an imperial edict in his hand. He was like the real master of the Qingtian fantasy in the people, raising imperial edicts here to uphold justice. He was not a loyal minister. Could it be that these officials and gentry who committed a lot of crimes were loyal ministers? As for the fight against the local tyrants, it was legal, because it was a confiscation of the rebels' homeland. Emperor Taizu Gao liked to do this back then. Yang Feng did this just to restore the ancestral system when Taizu was restored.

This is the system of the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty.

Even the ancestral system is not legal, so the Ming emperor has a big legitimacy.

It is even more legal to divide the land.

All the lands in the world are the kings. The lands of the Ming Dynasty belong to the emperor. Of course, it is okay to deal with the emperor. In the past, when the emperor wanted to occupy the imperial farm, the people also had to endure it. At that time, officials and gentry would advise them to endure it. Why do the landlords now have to divide the landlords' fields, and the landlords can't tolerate it?

Is this the case for loyal ministers?

Is it wrong for him to come on behalf of the emperor to distribute the land of these criminal gentry to tenants?

No matter how many gentry spread rumors and slandered him, they could not change the essence of his actions under the order.

As for the officials and gentry, they said that the emperor was fake...

absurd!

How could such a good emperor be fake?

Is it fake that the emperor who liberated slaves, beat the local tyrants and divided the land, and asked the great master of Qingtian to save the people from water and fire, but the emperor who condoned officials to be corrupt and abused the law, and the local tyrants and evil gentry exploited the people?

How is this possible!

The common people have a scale in their hearts, but they know very well who treats them well.

In order to form a group training during Hongguang, local officials plundered a lot, and various donations made the public resentment. However, Yang Feng came to abolish the harsh taxes, abolish the silver taxes, and abolish the corvee service and silver. All the people only need to pay land taxes in the future.

Such a good emperor must be a real emperor.

The people must support it.

Wouldn't you be a fool if you don't support such a good emperor?

Just like when Zhu Yuanzhang was about torture, no one could rise up. Suzhou gentry was yelling on the street and shouting to raise an army, but was sent to the government by the people in a blink of an eye. This was the result of truly gaining support from the lower class. No matter how hard the upper class gentry struggled, they had to face this helpless situation of being trapped in the vast ocean.

The loyal minister, the number one loyal minister in the minds of the people of Zhenjiang, quickly completed the purge of the gentry of Zhenjiang with a public trial meeting.

Then there is a house search.

Keep gold and silver for the Nanjing Palace.

The emperor had already said that he would pay it back for the people in the future, but since most of the loans were shot, there was no need to pay it back.

The land cadastral land was not prepared to be cleared and then distributed to the tenants to re-register, but for the time being, the wheat was harvested for the time being.

The slaves look at their identities and take them from their adopted sons and daughters, divide the property and shops into separate households, and they are farming serfs who are directly assigned to their own land, and they can also restore their original surnames.

The real family members will allocate the house to the house and farm the land by themselves according to the population.

Although killing all is indeed a way to eliminate future troubles, Yang Dashuai was still too soft-hearted. Sometimes he was really worried that he could not massacre the city as happily as Jiannu, and even Li Zicheng could not do it. So he finally calculated that there were only about 100 targets in Zhenjiang. Then, Zhenjiang, which completed this cleaning, began to follow the example of the Beijing City to elect a commune, and according to the fang unit, the entire 15 fangs in Zhenjiang City...

In fact, it is twelve, but the population of three yards grew too fast, so they each divided into one map and finally formed fifteen yards.

And outside the city are seven yards.

This city is really not small, even outside the city, there are seven yards, which means that one-third of the population overflows the area of ​​the city wall.

This is a common situation in Jiangnan, and there are too many people on this land.

There are 22 yards in Zhenjiang City, each of which elects members according to their occupations. These members form a committee to manage the yard, and then form the Zhenjiang Commune and directly obey the Prime Minister appointed by Yang Feng.

In fact, he is temporarily working part-time.

At the same time, he appointed the chief officials of each bureau. Because there was no cadre team of his own in a short period of time, these chief officials were selected among the members, but this was not a fixed rule. They would be transferred from other places in the future. In a short period of time, they could only establish the local management system first. Besides, even if they were transferred from outside, Yang Feng would not be able to adjust it. Unless they were from Nanjing, Yingtian Commune was also such an official. He had only been in office for a total of one month, and even if they were transferred, it would be the same. It was not as good as these local ones.

This problem needs to be solved slowly.

What he needs next is to continuously build such commune systems in expansion, and then mobilize officials in these commune systems to each other.

It takes time.

This is the only way to make do with it in a short period of time.

Moreover, these elected members must have certain local abilities. Not to mention whether their character is good or bad, but being able to get support from others means that they have enough ability to be trusted. In fact, because their initial feelings were very pure, these members' character was definitely better than that of the old bureaucrats.

Even if this system of recommendation is rotten, it will take some time.

That's all.

As for such officials, they will inevitably be corrupt in the end...

He had no choice but to do this. He was very self-aware. He was not able to truly establish a perfect system. He was not an idealist. His real purpose was to complete a limited change within a controllable range based on the decadent Ming Dynasty, destroying the old interest groups, and establishing a country with self-cultivating farmers as the main body in the process of destruction.

It doesn't matter what brand this country is holding onto.

It doesn't matter if there is an emperor.

As long as Wanli continues to work hard on the road to a good emperor in this way, he will not mind retaining the symbol of such a country.

Yang Feng would not be an emperor.

He just needs to silence His Majesty the Emperor.

However, the most important thing is self-cultivated farmers as the main body.

It was useless to talk about anything else in the late Ming Dynasty. What about industrialization? The Ming Dynasty was that industrialization was too high. If the economic crops in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were completely flattened and converted into rice, it might not be a loss of the country. Don’t count on overseas trade. The silver brought by overseas trade will only aggravate inflation, and overseas trade will definitely not bring back food. Japan is also famine, and North Korea is also famine.

Southeast Asia can indeed be used for three seasons a year, but the best rice-producing area in Java Island has a population of one hundred million.

Not to mention backward agricultural technology, and from time to time floods and plagues will all reduce production.

Can the surplus grain they produced feed a city during the Ming Dynasty famine?

The Ming Dynasty had more than one-third of the world's population, and it was impossible to support Shaanxi in famine at this time.

Not to mention that overseas grain procurement, transportation, and even suppression of indigenous people all require huge investment, which may be lower than output.

real.

The Dutch East India Company was unable to hold on to disband.

Even robbers can go bankrupt.

The only way is to immigrate on a large scale and use the agricultural technology of the Ming Dynasty to carry out development.

All right.

This indeed seems reasonable.

But after the first batch of Britain immigrants to North America, there are still 1,000 left twenty years later, so the environment is relatively better in North America.

Not to mention the plagues everywhere in Southeast Asia.

For example, the population in the northwest of the famine-stricken areas in the northwest of Java Island will be relocated to half of the population in the second year. It is definitely God's blessing.

In fact, even if they moved to Yunnan and Guizhou, they still couldn't hold on.

Li Dingguo and Ma Jinzhong, the powerful generals who went north and south, basically all died of illness early. In the final analysis, they just couldn't adapt to the climate in the south.

On the contrary, internal equal farming and farming are the lowest cost.

Not only is it the lowest cost, but it can also establish a more effective regime system in this process, and then promote new crops, fertilizers, and agricultural technologies, establish a more systematic disaster relief system, open up new food sources such as fishing, and encourage land reclamation on a large scale. Even if the yield of these wastelands is low, as long as the quantity is large enough, some food can be harvested.

At worst, plant something more suitable.

For example, sorghum.

But the premise of all this is to clear out the original interest groups and let the gentry groups parasitized on the land die.

Their sins are not important.

But without them, the most important thing is.

In this way, Yang Feng began a murderous transformation in Zhenjiang.

At the same time, his enemies finally realized the real terror of this demon. Just when Yang Feng transformed Zhenjiang, officials and gentry in the entire Jiangnan were mobilized, and a general mobilization of gentry with the ultimate goal of killing Yang also began.
Chapter completed!
