Chapter 1161 Ten years is too long
After Princess Changle moved into Taiping Weigong Fort, she showed her gentle side.
After meeting with the Qin family's retainers and their female relatives, they only took a look at the account books sent by the Qin family's managers.
She also showed the grandeur that the eldest wife should have when Qin Lang and the children born to her concubines. She not only had a gentle and polite attitude towards these children born from the illegitimate children, but also prepared many gifts for them.
What I was most worried about was Anon. After all, she had been in the fiefdom. Unlike Yu Xiao and others who had been with the princess in Luoyang for a while and had experiences traveling together, so they were always worried that the princess could not tolerate it. But after a month, she found that the princess was kind to others and always called her sister. This made Anon feel that she was originally waiting to kill her, but in the end she only felt like a feather was passing by.
While breathing a sigh of relief, I admired the princess from the bottom of my heart.
I pay my respects to you every morning and evening, and I dare not take any slightest slightest recklessness.
The princess came to Taiping for a month and basically did nothing. She neither set the rules for Wei Gongbao nor sent her own manager to check the accounts and take over the errands in the mansion.
It turns out that what it should be like is still not like.
Everything is as it is.
Every day, I stayed in Weigongbao with my concubines in the mansion, worked as a female embroidery worker, had afternoon tea, occasionally played the piano and wrote poems, or educated my children of fertile life together, and life was as smooth as water.
Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, an envoy came in Luoyang.
The emperor and the prince both sent people to send Mid-Autumn Festival gifts to the princess and also rewarded Qin Lang and his children with many things.
Princess Changle was renamed Princess Taiping, and a total of 1,000 households were granted before the fief of Tongtong.
Holding a box of mooncakes, the box of mooncakes was made by my father, Princess Jinyang, and the sisters and nephews of King Li Xiang of Qin. King Mingda of Jin was still naughty. The mooncakes she made were actually several rabbits, saying they were moon rabbits.
Li Zhi, the younger brother of Jin, who had been with him for several years, had already gone to Chengde to visit the vassal state. This Mid-Autumn Festival, like her, could no longer spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with her.
The emperor's letter to Lizhi mentioned that he hoped to be able to hold his grandson as soon as possible, and also gave him a silver bottle of money, but it was the customized money used by the Sanli. The emperor used this to urge his daughter to have children as soon as possible.
Li Zhi's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
After the wedding in Luoyang, she finally married Sanlang. After the marriage, Qin Lang resigned from all his official positions and devoted himself to staying at home to accompany her. That was the happiest and happiest three months of her life.
The time of happiness is always so short, and the beauty that is still immersed in it has to accept the fact that her husband has to go south to quell the chaos because his brother Li You rebelled in Guizhou.
After leaving Xiangyang, a few months passed in a blink of an eye, but I never saw my husband again.
It is said that newlyweds are like paint and glue, but she can't even see her husband's face.
Every day in the Weigongbao in Tianshan, surrounded by the children born to Qin Lang and his concubines. Lizhi always envies her and hopes that she also has a child with Sanlang.
Although I miss my husband in my heart, Lizhi remembers the teachings my mother once taught her that men always do careers and are always busy outside. Women should live in loneliness and take care of their homes for men.
It was okay during the day, with Yuxiao Anon and other concubines accompanying him, Yingluo Nu and King Kong and other cousins accompanying him, but at night, he couldn't help but sleep alone, and tossing and turning.
Where is Treasure Island?
It is said that in the depths of the South China Sea, Li Zhi can only stare at a map of the South China Sea.
······
Qin Lang knew that the princess had arrived at Taiping Port safely, and he planned to go back early, but he delayed it again and again, and there was always something to delay.
Luzon was created and there was a lot of busyness everywhere.
Qin Lang personally stayed on the island, and he could save a lot of things.
The Qin family's strategy was to occupy the two bay ports in the north and south of the Central Plain first, forming a situation where the two dragons surround the Central Plain. Regardless of other places, the focus was on developing and operating the Luzon Central Plain.
In order to stimulate immigrants to settle down, Qin Lang offered generous settlement conditions. One male was given 120 acres of land, a young and strong woman also gave 60 acres of land, the middle male was given 60 acres of land, and other old and young people also gave 30 acres of land according to oral land, each person was given 30 acres.
Moreover, after the field was awarded, it was always eternal, but it was inherited by the descendants from generation to generation.
It also specially issued a complete rent-free period for the first five years, and only increased by 20% every year in the next five years. It was not until the eleventh year that the full rent was collected, but the full rent was only set to be collected for three dou of acre, and the land rent was extremely low.
Except for the three dou of acres, there is no other way to collect fodder, no need to charge for the acres, no need to spread the stakes into the acres, no need to do free service for twenty days, and no charity grain or social warehouse grain.
Moreover, Qin Lang rejected the suggestion that the fields were divided into nine levels, including Tiantang, and the fields were not divided for the time being, but the tax rate was extremely low.
In addition to attracting gold diggers to stay and give land, Qin Lang also gave extremely generous settlement conditions to his family members in the basic base such as the manager of the Qin family.
The managers and staff of various industries in the Qin family originally had seniority and position. Qin Lang announced that they would give them land based on their years of service and position in the Qin family.
In addition to the basic land grant, the land granted based on their seniority, position, etc. can basically get an additional ten acres of land for an apprentice for five years, while a junior can get an additional twenty acres of land, an intermediate staff can get a thirty acres of land, and a senior staff can get a 50 acres of land.
A three-man shopkeeper can get one hundred acres, a second-man shopkeeper can get two hundred acres, and a first-man shopkeeper can get three hundred acres, and the managers at all levels have also increased accordingly, and a large manager can get an additional thousand acres of land.
Junior apprentice intermediate apprentice senior apprentice, then to third-level staff, third-level shopkeeper and third-level manager, a total of fifteen levels, from an additional ten acres of land to a thousand acres.
Some of them even have high contributions to receive special commendations of 2,000 to 3,000 acres.
In essence, this is a replica of the Qin family's enfeoffment of the Knights in Wu'anzhou, but it was just a name change, but the essence is still the same.
The Qin family gave land to these people in various places, not only enclosing land and enclosing them, but also gave them an additional benefit of one-third of the rent.
These internal employees of the Qin Group were encouraged to immigrate and settle down, and even encouraged them to recruit relatives and friends from the Central Plains to settle down. Each time one person was recruited to settle down, they were not only granted land to the other party according to the policy, but also rewarded the introducer for ten acres of land for each strong man, and the remaining females were five acres of men, and the young and old were also rewarded with one acre of reward.
The fields that are granted can be bought and sold for as long as twenty years.
The land ownership limit given by Qin Lang is 10,000 mu, as long as it does not exceed 10,000 mu.
He encouraged people to come and build manors and reclaim land.
There is only one, and no abandonment is allowed. If the land is abandoned, it will be punished. If it is abandoned for three consecutive years, it will be taken back to avoid people hoarding the land and not farming.
Although Qin Lang has given a good condition for land-giving and other fields, he is not afraid of giving too much land, because in a central plain, the area of cultivated land that can be reclaimed can reach 300,000 hectares, which is a total of 30 million acres of land.
Even if a family can own a farm of two or three hundred acres of land, it can accommodate 100,000 such farms.
The problem now is that there are too many lands and too few people.
If the entire Luzon Island and the other islands can be developed in the future, the arable land area can be increased by five or six times, and there will be more than 150 million mu of arable land, so there is no fear of no land to cultivate.
Although this is only about 20% or 30% of the arable land area of 600 million mu of Zhongyuan Dynamic, it is still very considerable.
Find ways to attract people and find ways to keep people.
Now 80% of people on Luzon Island come to find gold. These people only want to make money by exploring gold, and even get rich overnight.
But Qin Lang hopes that most of these people can settle here.
The generous land distribution policy and extremely low tax policy are all just to grab people.
Qin Lang was not very interested in the island's scattered animals. Although he had also expressed that if there were island players who were willing to naturalize, he would also welcome them, but Qin Lang had already set a red line, that is, the number of island players must be strictly controlled to an extremely low proportion, otherwise he would be worried about the risk of Luzon being reborn in the future.
What he wants to guarantee is that Luzon will be a pure Han civilization in the future, rather than a civilized and comprehensive mixed race civilization.
Therefore, Qin Lang proposed that he would rather go to the Central Plains to adopt more abandoned babies and orphans and recruit more mountain villagers. Even if some beggars are disabled, it would definitely be better than absorbing large amounts of islands.
Luzon's conditions are unique. One of the best conditions here is that there are vast fertile plains and a large amount of arable land. These are the most basic conditions for development and growth.
Otherwise, if it is just gold mining, salt making, and sea trading, it will be just a castle in the air and will not last long.
Taking some islands into naturalization and teaching them to farm can solve the problem of Luzon's extremely shortage of labor, but when using them, you still have to be careful of the red line and strictly control the quantity.
Qin Lang was also determined to be unruly island fans, especially those island fans and tribes that dared to attack and harass the Tang people. He would destroy them if he found an opportunity, and turn them into slaves in the plantation and transport them to the Central Plains to sell them.
"I think this field is given too much, one hundred and twenty acres, and I can't plant it at all."
"Coarse tillage and carousel can increase the yield. Anyway, we put the land there and put it there now. Why not take out more, which will be more attractive."
If a family of six comes to settle down, and a couple adds an elderly man and three children, then the husband can be divided into 120 acres, a wife can be divided into 60 acres, and a elderly man can be divided into 30 acres. If there is an older boy among the three children, it can also be divided into 60 acres, and the other two smaller ones are divided into 30 acres, which is a total of 330 acres.
Even if the family of six is a couple with four children, they can be divided into 300 acres of land.
Ah Huang and the others thought that the amount of land was a bit high. For example, the Juntian Order of the Northern Wei Dynasty was a man who was over 15 years old and a woman who was 20 acres of land. In order to rotate the land, the land could be given twice as much as the land was sold, but the land was only allowed to be bought and sold. He was exempted from classes when he was old and returned to the land if he died.
Another twenty acres of mulberry fields are given as Yongye fields. On the mulberry fields, a certain number of mulberry, elm, and jujube trees must be planted. In the non-mung land, the macadamia fields are given to men and five acres of women.
The Northern Wei Dynasty also stipulated that slaves could also be granted land like good people, and those who own slaves could also give more land. One ox can also give land to thirty acres of land, which is limited to four years.
"Only men and women under the age of fifteen and under 60 can be given land, but old and young people do not. This land should be divided into the main land by the mouth, and the land should be returned if it dies." A Huang suggested.
Qin Lang smiled and said, "Since you want to divide the land to attract immigrants to settle down, why bother so stingy? Or just be more generous and all the fields you have given will be eternal, but your descendants can be sold freely within twenty years."
"As for talking about the number of people, I still say the same thing. It is more attractive to have more. Anyway, there are more fields."
Even if there are three or four hundred acres of land, it can still be planted by rotary farming and other methods.
Only those with constant property have perseverance, Qin Lang still believes in this sentence.
If they were just a group of gold diggers, they might leave at any time. Even if they found gold here and made money, they might have brought the money back to their hometown in Zhongyuan.
There will always be no one here.
And if they have land industries here, especially some assets, they will not leave easily.
People can compare. If it were in the narrow villages of the Central Plains, the land grant order was already difficult to implement, and the court could only encourage the people to migrate to the border areas of Kuan Township. Even in the land of Kuan Township, the land granted by a single dynasty was limited to 100 acres, and most of them could not reach the full limit.
Moreover, those border areas often have poor land and face unstable factors such as the barbarian Hu Di.
In contrast, there is no powerful threat from indigenous barbarians in Luzon, and it can actually give enough land. It is also good land on the fertile plain. After a few years of cultivation, it can become a top-notch fertile land. Compared with this, the people cannot understand and do not know the choice?
It is said that the little one sells his land and doesn’t feel sorry for him. Qin Lang now uses Luzon’s land to divide it, so he doesn’t feel sorry for him.
As for what day may not be enough to divide it in the future, I will talk about it later.
"I can't plant it even if I divide so much land!"
"If you can't plant it, you will plough it and rotate it."
Qin Lang asked to give priority to the management staff, staff, and security team members of the Qin family on the island. These should be considered as government managers and state-owned enterprises employees of the Qin family on the island. Therefore, giving them enough land is given priority to better motivate their enthusiasm, keep these people and let them move their families.
If these Qin family members are unwilling to stay, how can they attract other people?
"The security team is now quite crowded, but the security team already has its own military farming. Now it is divided and it cannot be planted at all."
"If you can't plant it, you will get points." Qin Lang's attitude was very firm.
"Do you have to immigrate and settle down after you divide the land?"
Qin Lang knew that many of the Qin family managers and others who came to the island now were like being dispatched on business trips, so he did not force him to settle down and move his family members immediately.
"Take things slowly. Let's share the fields with them first. We can give them a time to consider, which is limited to ten years. Anyone who can move here can be moved within ten years. If they don't move here for ten years, we will take back the land at that time."
"Ten years are too long, but it's going to be three years?"
