"Whether the clearing of land is successful, it is an issue that affects the foundation of our Han Dynasty.

Yuan Zhi, do you have any ideas?" Ma Qiang asked Xu Shu.

"I heard that the money house already has preferential loans for agriculture. Can people allow them to borrow money from the money house, repay the money from the powerful, and then slowly repay the money from the court?

At least it can guarantee that the fields that have already reached the hands of the people will not return to the hands of the powerful."

"No, if the money house is asked to take on this loan, others will follow suit in the future, and a miracle of millions of dollars acre of land will appear in the future.

By then, the court’s money will be gone and the people will be burdened with heavy burdens. The powerful will make a lot of money. This is absolutely not feasible!”

Ma Qiang immediately rejected Xu Shu's idea.

At this time, Cao Cao finally found that Ma Qiang was whispering to Xu Shu behind him.

They have just been watching the process of steel flowing out and turning into ingots.

The steel water is endless, and it looks like the big river and the Yangtze River.

This heavy industrial site is shocked by people at the soul level, especially when learning that the steel plant is still expanding, Cao Cao and others really doubt whether Ma Qiang is planning to wrap every inch of land in the Han Dynasty with steel.

If this continues, will Hebei's annual steel production exceed that of the past few hundred years?

This is really terrible if you think about it...

"Brother Xuande, look, our general seems to be in trouble."

"Hey, with the soldiers and horses in the hands of the general, no matter how big the trouble is, you can still use your strength to break it..."

"Brother Xuande, did I not have a knife in my hand in Yanzhou back then?

Some things are useless!

I bet that the problem the general encountered must be related to Qingtian!”

Liu Bei calculated the time, and remembered that today was the day when Yanzhou officially cleared the fields.

He couldn't help but wonder what trouble Ma Qiang had encountered.

"Let's go and ask how?"

“Ask?”

"Why is the general worried? But what happened?"

Cao Cao said to Ma Qiang with an expression that I wanted to help you.

Ma Qiang did not hide it from it and circulated the telegram to Cao Liu and others. After reading it, these people couldn't help but look at Yang with admiration.

"The way of playing Yang Family...is quite innovative."

Liu Bei was born into a decay and had never done such a delicacy as collecting land and renting.

Cao Cao was different. The Cao family and Xiahou family were also big families in Qiao County, and they also did a lot of work on annexing land and collecting land rent.

Now I realize why I have to collect land rent? The same goes for collecting profits!

In this way, the big clans will not buy land in the future, just learn from the general to open a money house.

What? What should people do if they don’t borrow money?

Induce it!

Tell those mud legs that you should borrow money to get married!

Tell those mud legs that you should borrow money to buy good clothes!

Tell those mud legs that you should lend money to your wife to buy beautiful jewelry, otherwise you just don’t love her!

Tell those mud legs that you should lend money to your children for the most expensive birthday gifts, otherwise you just don’t love them!

Anyway! You should borrow money! The more you borrow, the better!!

At most, the rent for land is collected from one township and one county.

You can collect interest from the whole world!

This is really a new world as long as you are open-minded!

What? What if the people don’t pay back the money?

Haha, do you think I have so many soldiers in order to line up to see them?

If you don’t pay it back, just give it to me! It’s natural to pay back the debt, and it’s useless to come when the emperor comes!!

Emperor is useless.

It may not be certain that General Ma Qiang is here.

"General, Yang's family is a part of the territory, and I think if this method is promoted, the general's resistance will be greatly reduced.

After all, the Qingtian Dharma before... was too unfriendly to the powerful." Liu Bei advised Ma Qiang.

Liu Bei is sincerely persuading Ma Qiang.

In his opinion, this is indeed a way to achieve the best of both worlds. The people have obtained land, and the aristocratic families have not received much loss.

If Ma Qiang was also a person from this era, perhaps Ma Qiang would agree to extend Yang's approach.

Unfortunately, Ma Qiang is not!

“Unfriendly?

Brother Xuande, if he is friendly to the powerful, he will not be friendly to the people.

I would rather see a door crying than see every county crying."

"Then the general wants to take back the land of the people of Yangliuting and redistribute it again?"

Ma Qiang shook his head and said, "I want to deny the rationality of this loan from the root.

When I was in Qingzhou before, I wrote an article "On Qingtian and Rent Reduction and Interest Reduction", requiring local governments to reduce rents and interest rates, and this policy has been implemented until now.

However, the previous court's policy of reducing rent and interest rates was still mainly guided, but now it seems that it is not enough.

Just so happen, two brothers, you guys come and help me, let’s draw up a new “New Leasing and Rate Reduction and Land Price Assessment Measures”

"Can the General tell me what your new method means?"

Ma Qiang smiled and said, "It's very simple. If the interest rate of private lending exceeds half of the guiding interest rate set by the State Banking Regulatory Bureau, the interest portion will not be protected by the court, and the borrower may not pay the interest.

If the interest rate of private lending exceeds twice the guiding interest rate set by the State Banking Regulatory Bureau, the principal will not be protected by the court, and the borrower may not repay the principal and interest of the loan this time, and the original lending relationship will be deemed to be eliminated.

If the lender uses violent means to force the borrower to repay the principal or interest that is not protected by the court, it will be dealt with as a crime of robbery and will start with ten years of labor!

As for the land price assessment.

The price of land affects people's livelihood. In order to prevent people from deliberately speculating on raising land prices, the price of land will be issued by the local prefectures to issue a guided price of land in counties and towns. If the price of land exceeds a certain proportion of the guided price, the transaction will not be protected by the court, and the buyer and seller can declare the transaction invalid at any time."

this?

Cut off the firewood from the bottom of the cauldron?

These four words flashed through Cao Liu and others' minds.

"That loan from Yang's family?"

"Their interest rate is far higher than the interest range protected by the court, and of course the original lending relationship is regarded as extinction!

Or, Yang takes back these fields and waits for the clear fields!

Or, if Yang gave up asking the people to pay back the money, he would treat it as a good thing!"

Ma Qiang gave Yang family two dead ends.

"General, I'm afraid that's the case, Yang will rebel!"

"Rebel? If he rebels, I will turn his sheep into a chicken!"

chicken?

Oh...it's used to scare monkeys...

Ma Qiang and others were very efficient. On the same day, Ma Qiang decided on the main terms of the "New Measures for the Assessment of Rent and Interest Reduction and Land Prices", and then sent them to the State Council, requiring the State Council to pass within two days.

Lu Zhi didn't know about the Yang family. Seeing this method, he felt that although he was a little unfair to the powerful and raised objections, after Hua Jing, Han Fu and others agreed, he still pinched his nose and accepted it.
