Chen Zhi was silent, making people confused.

Sun Xiu took a deep breath. He knew that the following words were related to his future, so he was extra cautious.

"The lord fought several times and pacified all the external troubles around him. There was also the seventh-rank Xianbei as a barrier, creating a stable external environment. Now he was thinking about farming and was thinking of refugees. This is to consolidate the foundation. The country is based on the people and the people are the most important. The way to determine agriculture can calm the people's hearts. Both hands are stable, both inside and outside, and those who are wandering outside are the only ones! Aristocratic families have many inherited the six arts, and the lord has the method of screening. If it is perfect, it is to leave the aristocratic family without worrying that no one can use it. This is a plan to remove the firewood from the cauldron..."

Sun Xiu said, carefully observing Chen Zhi's expression. To his disappointment, Chen Zhi's expression did not change much and seemed to be touched.

After a while, Chen Zhi said: "Aristocratic families are like cunning rabbits, with more than three caves. If they are forced here, they will be kept in other places. A family of three sons can serve the three families. If they are forced too much, they will naturally leave. Although there are capable people in the poor family, in the final analysis, the children of aristocratic families have more time to study, learn from their professions, and learn from famous scholars. If they abandon such a group of people, it may not be a good thing and will be a virtuous person for their enemies."

Sun Xiu did not answer immediately, and was silent for a moment before replying: "The lord is clearly prepared, so why should I compare with me? Although many children of aristocratic families can study for their profession, the premise is to rely on the support of the family and clan. For these aristocratic families, land is the foundation. Only with vast fields can you have rich money and live a life of rich clothes and food, and provide them with their children to study and study. If these lands are mastered by the lord, what way can they resist? They can only follow it, and even the lord can reward and punish them to win people's hearts."

Chen Zhi shook his head and said, "The land belongs to a noble family. If I take it over, I will threaten it in the past, or even use it as a reward. I am afraid that I will not be loyal, but will be resentful. It will accumulate and explode sooner or later."

He actually discussed it with Sun Xiu like this, as if he really regarded the person in front of him as his own counselor.

Sun Xiu was not polite and explained: "If it is forcibly seized, it is inevitable that this will be the case. However, the lord's actions in Dai County are just right. He first lets him release the tenant farmers and put them under the jurisdiction of the government. If the other party has land but no one can do it, it is impossible to perform. This is to be controlled by the government and not force people away at once. This is the method of boiling frogs in warm water. The second is to promote merchants and let aristocratic families join in, and use the method of conducting business and industry to obtain huge profits and make up for the damage to the land. This is to regulate."

"The tenant farmers were taken away but the roots were not broken. The aristocratic families were unable to be willing to accept it. The merchants' income was growing and they tasted the sweetness. While they were unwilling to leave, they could tie the aristocratic families up in place so that they would not leave. This could also distinguish between the enemy and us. Those who were determined to leave must be those who did not do good to their lords. Even if they stayed, they would also restrain and oppose them. Instead, they could let them go through them and make mistakes and confuse others, and perhaps provide an excuse to start a war."

"What goes a step further is to transform it. In this regard, the lord's screening method has been established. If it were during the Taiping period, you would have the convenience of opening a government office and the aristocratic families in this place. Once this screening method was used, the court and the aristocratic families in this place would be criticized and even spread throughout the world. It was criticized by people and the scholars would not want to follow it. However, now that Jizhou is in chaos and the north and south are cut off, there will be less obstacles. I know that when it is stable in the future, I will be supplemented with the method of learning, and I will be able to take shape without fear of the words of the aristocratic families. Moreover, the curtain is coming and the world will be in chaos. At that time, the place where the aristocratic families go to will be a place of peace and stability. Such a reputation will be the second."

Chen Zhi suddenly said, "You said the curtain is coming, are you thinking that chaos is about to begin?" Then, without waiting for the other party to answer, he changed the subject, "I heard you, I seem to be very interested in oppressing aristocratic families. Are you determined to do it for me?"

These words seemed to admit Sun Xiu's guess, but when it fell into Sun Xiu's ears, he was shocked. He quickly stopped talking and lowered his head and said, "It's his subordinate who has violated the situation."

Chen Zhi didn't say anything more. When the atmosphere in the room became a little more serious, Sun Xiu also had a cold sweat on his head, he smiled and said, "It's okay, these things should be worked together. These points you said are also very useful. They may be implemented as a policy in the future. Now think more and say more, it is not a bad thing..."

Sun Xiu listened, but he didn't have much joy because he knew very well that there must be other content later.

Sure enough, I heard Chen Zhi say, "...But everything has a beginning, and you have to take one step at a time. Now, start with farming. Since you are willing to do things and have research on farming affairs, you can be responsible for promoting sweet potato work. But before that, you must first set up some other farming systems, such as fallow matters."

Sun Xiu immediately understood the spirit and nodded, "So that's it. Before, there was only one place in Dai County, with a limited scope, but now it has expanded to the entire Youzhou. There are more farmlands and more farmers under the rule of the lord, so there are fallow and rotations. This is very good. In addition, it is more effective in cooperating with Dai County's fertilization method..."

When he saw himself mentioning it, the other party could understand it. Even Chen Zhi couldn't help feeling relieved. He lamented that Sun Xiu was indeed a famous figure in history and was indeed outstanding. No wonder he could have made such a big formation in the original history.

But after thinking about it, Chen Zhi then blew: "In addition, if you want to join the General's Mansion, you must not only explain clearly to Zhao Wangsun, but also have to be screened. The position will not be too high at the beginning, but as long as you have the ability, I will still dare to give the right to persuade farmers. Of course, supervision is also inevitable. This farming is the foundation. If I delegate power, you will not dare to accept it."

Sun Xiu was stunned, but immediately came to his senses and bowed to thank him. He was ecstatic, but he stopped when he saw it was getting better and said he would leave on the excuse that it was getting late, which seemed to digest the gains of this meeting.

After the people left, Chen Zhize called a few people and ordered a few words, revealing the intention of letting Sun Xiu be responsible for the farming.

Not long after, Zhang Kang came to ask for a meeting.

When he entered the room and saw Chen Zhi, Zhang Kang said, "I heard that the officials of Zhao Wangsun, the person named Sun and Xiu, had to join the farming department. The subordinates thought this was inappropriate, so I hope the lord would think about it again."

"You are very informative," Chen Zhi shook his head and chuckled, "The aristocratic family in the city is really restless. I told Sun Xiucai that you will be here not long after."

"They are also worried about the situation in Youzhou," Zhang Kang was shocked. He wanted to explain, but did not dare to go too far. So he quickly mentioned this purpose. "Sun Xiu was originally a clerk of the royal palace. King Zhao sent him to protect the prince, but this person wanted to take the lead. It was really untrustworthy. How could he know that he would not rebel again in the future? Farming is the foundation of everything. How could he let such a person take charge? It would be bad to shake the foundation. I hope the lord thinks twice!"

Chen Zhi waved his hand and said, "I have my own plan, but Zhang Jun is also considering the overall situation. He needs to continue to supervise in the future to prevent any omissions."

This sentence was a nail that was neither soft nor hard, which made Zhang Kang unable to respond for a while. He was thinking about how to say it again, but someone came to report it to Ran Zhan and Gao Bing rushed to Jixian and wanted to see him.
