Chapter 882 I want to sign up
If he gets this gold, then his Li family will be completely developed. No one can see the charm of money. Li Meng thought that his son who had not grown up had to accumulate some family business for him.
Li Meng still remembered what his father said that day, and he also heard what the people on the scene just now. Now, he still did this and he mustered up a lot of courage.
When everyone saw Li Meng standing up and walked over, they felt a sense of loss in their hearts. Although no one wanted to go up just now, fearing a sudden disaster, now, seeing Li Meng go out, they are all jealous.
"Okay, you're a man!" Chen Feng sighed.
"The villain has seen several officials. The villain only needs to carry this pillar to the city gate and get fifty taels of gold, right?" Li Meng stood in front of Shi Yanduan and asked Shi Yanduan.
After all, this is a big deal. What should I do if I take it over and come back and give myself fifty taels of copper coins? But I have to ask clearly whether it is fifty taels of gold.
"That's right." Before Shi Yanduan could speak, Chen Feng replied: "We will do our best, just fifty taels of gold. Brother Gou'er, go inside and get thirty taels of gold."
"Yes." Liu Gou'er immediately took the order back.
Although fifty taels of gold are a lot, there is still this amount of gold in the entire Datong government office.
Li Meng got the accurate reply, walked to the front of the pillar, bent down, picked up the pillar, and then carried it to his shoulder.
The pillar was a bit heavy, probably about one hundred pounds, but Li Meng carried it very easily.
In this era, all kinds of work rely solely on physical strength. Many people can be regarded as strongman-level in later generations, and at this time, it is normal.
Li Meng took it up and didn't breathe. When he looked forward, the crowd had already dodged a word.
This is better. Li Meng was afraid that he would carry it away, but someone was blocking the way ahead.
Li Meng walked out of the crowd, and some of them followed Li Meng to see if there would be any accidents in Li Meng on the road?
Shi Yanduan turned around and looked at Chen Feng, thinking in his heart that today's incident was almost unlucky. If he were to do so, he would not add fifty taels of gold, and that pillar would last for a year, there would be no fifty taels of gold.
Half an hour later, Li Meng appeared in the crowd again, followed by a defender soldier at the city gate.
"Prince, the pillar has been sent." The soldier said to Chen Feng.
Prince! When he heard this, everyone was shocked. He thought that the old man was the biggest official, but he didn't expect that the young man behind the old man was actually a prince!
To them, the princes of the court are definitely people of God's height.
"Prince!" Suddenly, Li Meng, who was a little stupid, knelt down first: "Xiaomin bowed to the prince."
Following this Li Meng, all the people knelt down.
No matter what dynasty it is, the prince is arrogant to them.
Looking at these people, Chen Feng did not expect that the ordinary name of his soldier actually had such an effect. It seems that a good name can indeed be a fool.
This is better, and this is the effect you want.
Chen Feng looked at the man in front of him and said, "What's your name?"
"The villain is Li Meng from Lijiazhuang outside the city." Li Meng said.
"We have always done our business in the Ming Dynasty. These fifty taels of gold are now yours." Chen Feng said.
After saying that, Shi Yan took it up and handed him the box. Thirty taels were added in the box, which had turned into a full fifty taels of gold.
The others lowered their heads and felt a little regretful. If they had known that they would have taken it up and carried it, even if there were any risks, it would have been worth it for the sake of these fifty taels of gold!
Li Meng looked at the gold in front of him and was overjoyed. He took it and kowtowed: "Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
Everything is fake, real money and silver are real. At the beginning, Li Meng still had some doubts. Will these fifty taels of gold be given to him? If he doesn't give it to him and accept it, he will just treat it as a waste of his own good deed.
Now, the gold was shining before my eyes, and suddenly, I felt a burst of ecstasy in my heart.
"Don't thank me, this is what you deserve." Chen Feng said: "My Ming Dynasty, since its initiation, has been for the people of the world. Everyone is Han Chinese, but they have been enslaved by the Mongols. This is the sorrow of us Han Chinese. We must stand up and be human beings, and we must never be slaves of the Mongols! Now, we have succeeded, the Ming Dynasty stands on the Central Plains!"
Chen Feng spoke loudly, even if he was outside the street, he could hear it clearly.
It is true. I don’t seem to notice that I live in this land, but the one who rides on them to act as a mighty man has always been the Mongols.
We Han people cannot be slaves to Mongolians!
Chen Feng's words were very inciting, but he knew that the momentum of his words would last within two days, and what could ultimately impress these people was the real interests.
Now, when they saw Li Meng taking fifty taels of gold, they were jealous of it. This was a good start.
"Now, after years of war, many villages in the north are empty and their land is deserted, while Shanxi is densely populated and insufficient arable land. In order to allow the people to live a good life, it is also to make our Ming Dynasty become stronger quickly. I hereby promise that anyone who voluntarily moves to Shandong, Hebei, Henan and other places will be exempted from five years of taxes, and the land that has been reclaimed belongs to him. Moreover, everyone will also compensate 100 taels of silver! If you sign up now, you can get the silver immediately." Chen Feng said.
The exemption of five years of taxes is already a very preferential condition. Moreover, Chen Feng added a more important aspect to this condition: whoever cultivates the land will belong to it.
Now, although these people farm, less than 50% of them can have their own land, and the rest are renting land from landlords.
In feudal society, the relationship between landlords and tenants was always a major relationship in society.
Now, as long as you go, the cultivated land will belong to them, which shocked everyone.
Moreover, each person can get one hundred taels of silver immediately. Just now, he looked at Li Meng and took fifty taels of gold. If he was not angry, it would definitely be fake. Now, he can also get one hundred taels of silver, which is a considerable amount.
Chen Feng's conditions were put forward, and Li Meng at the scene was used as an example. Sure enough, he successfully inspired many people.
However, they still have hesitation in their hearts.
"Now, I have sent 10,000 people as the leader. These people have gone to those areas and have started to renovate houses and plan villages. The first batch of people who go first will get free residences." Chen Feng said.
Even the house has been built for you, what are you waiting for? Chen Feng feels that if they are not satisfied with this, then Chen Feng will really have to punish all these people and escort them to immigrate in the army.
"Prince, the villain is brave enough to say something." At this moment, Li Meng finally plucked up the courage and spoke again.
"Tell me, what are your concerns?" Chen Feng asked.
"Prince, now, there is still half a month left, the autumn harvest is coming. Now, after we have received the money, should we set off immediately? Or can we wait until the autumn harvest before going?" Li Meng said.
Autumn harvest! Now it is already autumn, and the crops are about to be harvested soon. This is another season of harvest. At this time, if you set off immediately to another place, few people would be willing.
In theory, Li Meng had this fifty taels of gold, which was enough for his whole life to have no worries about food and clothing. However, he thought a lot. Now, while he was still young and did more work, if he reclaimed fifty acres of wasteland, then these wastelands would be his own, and he had accumulated wealth for his descendants. This gold would always be spent one day, but this land would always be his own.
So, Li Meng also wanted to go, but he had to wait until after the autumn harvest.
After hearing what Li Meng said, Shi Yanduan suddenly realized that he had gained nothing some time ago. Could it be that this is the reason?
Chen Feng felt like he was in his heart. It seemed that although this reason was not the most important, it also accounted for a certain proportion.
"That's natural. Now, as long as you sign up first, you can get this hundred taels of silver. After the autumn harvest, you have to set off at the latest in September. At the end of October, if anyone has not arrived yet, don't blame me for being rude." Chen Feng said.
If you are too kind, it is not possible. If someone takes the money and runs away, Chen Feng will make a loss-making business.
"And, it is only limited to five days starting today. In these five days, anyone who registers at Datong Prefecture can receive silver." Chen Feng said.
After setting this deadline, Chen Feng also wanted to create a tense atmosphere. Moreover, with these five days, it would be enough for the villagers around Datong to know the news and determine whether to come to collect the silver.
This is Chen Feng’s first step in his work, and of course, he still needs to have a backup plan.
"Since the prince said that, the villain will sign up first." Li Meng said. Although Li Meng knew that when he went back like this, his father didn't know how to punish him, he firmly believed that it was right to do so. "Okay, Mr. Shi, let's set up a registration office here and start accepting the registration now." Chen Feng said: "General Liu, go find General Chang, first take out 10,000 taels of silver, and we will give the silver on the spot."
