Chapter 4 Drinking Soup

"What is a family? This is a family."

After the imperial court's official newspaper sent to Wuhan, the series of figures exposed were enough to open the eyes of Wuhan officials. These people, dominated by common people, did not know how cruel the foundation of the aristocratic family was.

After the official newspaper of the reproduction and printing was distributed, there was a silence in the conference room.

"More than 12 million acres of land? Is this... possible?"

"This is just the property of Cui's big house and Zhuzi in Wucheng. That is to say, more than 12 million acres of acres are just a guarantee. We can support a family of five with 200 acres, which can support a family of 300,000."

"The five surnames and seven hopes add up, I'm afraid that there are more than two million people?"

"Maybe it's only more or less? Otherwise, how could even underestimate the royal family?"

"But there must be not so many Dingkou on the books!"

"Nonsense! There are only more than 20,000 people on the books in Wuhan, but you don't know how much you actually have?"

“…”

Hiding the population or something, basic operations.

Although Lao Zhang knew that Dong Li wanted to do something, he thought that the "Eternal Emperor" would do his best and learn from Yang Guang to "do it if you don't accept life and death", but he never expected that Dong Li would be "good" as usual, and with a backhand, he would kill the "bringing chicken" who was used to pretending to be arrogant.

"We don't care about how many places the Cui family in Qinghe hides. The imperial court is actually in a dilemma now, one is the ownership of land rights, and the other is the division of human resources."

Seeing that the locals in Wuhan were still amazed at the foundation of the aristocratic family, Lao Zhang gently knocked on the table and reminded them to do a good job.

Seeing that the boss's expression seemed to be very serious, the local bumpkins in Wuhan immediately cheered up and sat upright, as if they wanted to listen to the president's teachings.

"The news received by our government is that Ma Xianggong, a Grand Secretary of Hongwen Pavilion, is in charge of the collection of Zhutianmu into the 'official camp'. In this matter, the nobles may not be satisfied, and the royal family may not be happy. But the royal family in this dynasty is not very important. Even the princes, you have not seen one or two, just know what they know."

After picking up the teacup, Lao Zhang put it down, "What do you think about the investigation of the land and the 'official camp' this time?"

"Empress, nobles should also divide the old and new ones. Even the new ones should depend on whether they are hang out in the officialdom. Those who are purely dependent on the royal family will naturally not even count things. If they hold important positions and receive some salary, they may not object."

"Yes, after all, millions of acres of land are collected into the 'official camp', so as long as you become an official, you can get some bargains. If you want to sell it again, I dare not say that the big head is from a noble family or a great official. Those who have no followers can only stare at them."

The reason is obvious, that is, it is more troublesome to handle, and the emperor's pressure is definitely not as light as you see on the surface.

Lao Zhang killed the landlord in Ezhou and experienced dozens of assassinations, and this year there are still some. What's more, the five surnames and seven hopes?

That is, Li Dongxinda, the Yulin Army changed the vest of the "police guard" and used the name of catching thieves to launch the same time in the eight counties of Beizhou overnight. Only then did the wave succeed. The Cui clan of Qinghe was uprooted and even a bird could not escape.

As for the previous frightened birds, such as the Lu family in Fanyang, they were fucked early and this time they escaped the disaster, and their lives were relatively better. The outstanding children of the family, regardless of whether they were separated from the clan, they all went out to avoid being targeted by the emperor, and then they came to play and uprooted again.

However, it is obvious that the Cui family in Qinghe is not only the foundation of their hometown. The male and female who have been married for many years can have a certain influence to a certain extent. Although the destruction of the family has led to the disappearance of the foundation of influence, even if "a day, a couple has a hundred days of kindness", the girls in Cui family cannot be all the waste that can't even coax their husbands...

Emperor Li was in trouble this wave of trouble, including the father and brother of many women, and the father-in-law of many men.

The "Five Talks and Four Beauties" that have been in the past dynasties for so many years, and now my dad, brother-in-law or brother-in-law of Taishan is over. Do you want to make a spoil for "dignity".

Mr. Li has been in power for twenty years and has made no enemies in his life. Even his father and brother are enemies, and there are countless external enemies and internal enemies. In this situation, he probably has a mentality of not worrying about having too much debt.

"Where is the land, what our mansion means, don't think too much about it. If you can rent it, just rent it. If you can't build a factory, it's good to farm. The food in Wuhan is not enough, and it's not just one million words. Come and go, can you register the number of tourists and merchants in Wuhan, but there is a rough idea?"

"Return to the envoy, this is really impossible to count, and there is only a rough idea."

The official who specialized in charge of this matter was a little embarrassed and said from the surroundings, "In the past 19 years of Zhenguan, we estimate that there are more than 7 million passengers and merchants."

"More than seven million?!"

"It's the number of people, not the number of people."

"But even so, there are quite a lot."

"Where can you leave Wuhan on both sides of the Yangtze River? I think this number is OK."

"There are more than seven million people, no matter how many people come, you will have to eat and drink once. If you stay for a day at a time, you will still need 70,000 stones per kilogram of rice. Just eating and drinking, you will always want 5,600,000 to 80,000 acres of land."

"How can I stay for one day? Suzhou's boat gang has sixty or seventy boats at a time. These are hundreds of people, not even animals. It's common to stay for ten days and half a month."

The number changes slightly, and it is not a matter of tens of thousands of acres of land, but hundreds of thousands of acres.

But these are just the consumption of migrant population, and there is no calculation of the consumption of Wuhan's permanent population.

The devouring of resources by super cities is hard for ordinary people to imagine. The peddlers and pawns live in a metropolis and will not even think about it, nor will they think about how huge the city where he is!

In various senses.

"So, the meaning of this mansion is that there is no need to think about the fields. There are two choices." Zhang De raised two fingers, "One, the emperor wants to 'Jiahu Order', let's continue to send them; Second, respond to the emperor, we will have more people in Wuhan, and we will move around the world, and go to the Central Plains to rent the land of the "official camp". After all, 'loyalty to the emperor and patriotism' is the fundamental."

“…”

“…”

When the boss heard the boss say this, the bureaucrats wanted to laugh but couldn't laugh, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.

Lao Zhang probably found that the joke he made was really inappropriate, so he coughed lightly: "The matters in the fields are not the main point, the main point is people. If you want them, how to do it, what kind of people, you have to gather your thoughts."

It is not difficult to kill the Cui family in Qinghe. The difficult thing is how to solve these involved people. Not to mention the population hidden by the Cui family in Qinghe, they are just "slaves" on the surface, but there are about 20,000 or 30,000 people who are half-personally attached, and they survive purely to serve the Cui family.

Unlike those high-ranking slaves who "bring children from their families", these semi-human dependent lower classes can be said to be equivalent to "serfs". They are indeed considered human beings in official positions, but in fact, even if they are wife and daughter, as long as they are beautiful, they are simply unstoppable to enjoy them for Cui.
