Everyone dispersed. Seeing that Hu Baocai Qiqi Ai Ai wanted to say something, Feng Jian asked, "Uncle Hu, is there anything else?"

Hu Baocai gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, you see, like a villain, who is too old and weak, his daughter-in-law and grandson at home are helpless, even if he reclaims the fields, it will be difficult to achieve a good harvest, and life will still be difficult to maintain!"

Hu Baocai's face was filled with pleasing expressions, and Feng Jian looked at the slightly hunched old man in front of him with a heavy heart...

There must be more than one family in the Hu Baocai family's situation. How should they get rid of their current predicament?

Hu Baocai's family has no strong labor. In the future, everyone who sent out to reclaim land and farm, his family's survival will become a big problem!

Such families should be five-guarantee households in the countryside in the future and rely on collective relief to survive.

How should I solve this kind of problem now? Just like in later generations, I will list this type of person as a five-guarantee household and take special care of them?

What other people will think when doing this outpost? You should know that at any time you will not worry about lack of worries and unevenness. If you do not properly, you will cause you to be disloyal and complain.

There must be similar people in other outposts in the village. I wonder how they deal with it? If you have time, please ask Hu Dadao for advice.

Feng Jian remembered that in the later rural areas, farmers who did not have strong labor at home would transfer the land they contracted to the agricultural cooperative. The cooperative integrates the land of many farmers to cultivate together. Farmers would receive part of the land from the cooperative every year as compensation.

If we use the experience of later generations to our own whistle, the problems faced by people like Hu Baocai will not make people scratch their heads.

Simply put, later farmers invested the contracted land in agricultural cooperatives, and were produced and operated by the cooperatives, and distributed profits according to the proportion of land invested by each household each year.

Since many farmers in agricultural cooperatives voluntarily merge and concentrate the land together, the land is connected into one piece and suitable for large-scale production and operation, and the benefits it generates are incomparable to farming one by one.

Those who do not have strong labor can wait for the annual land dividends as long as they invest their land in the cooperative.

However, the rule of Huluyan is that all the reclaimed wastelands belong to the commander of the mountain village. The village households in the village have reclaimed the land and handed over part of the land to the commander Xu as the grain of the village every year.

On the issue of land, Huluyan's approach is no different from that of the landlords and gentry at the foot of the mountain, and the villagers still cannot get their own land.

The only advantage is that it is no longer exploited by various taxes and taxes. This is the benefit that the simple farmer households are also grateful to Commander Xu of the Copyright.

In this era, people's strong possession of land was beyond imagination. The farmers wanted to own a piece of their own land, and the landlords and gentry who owned a large area of ​​land (including these counterfeit cottages that took the land as their own) firmly occupied the land and refused to let go.

But the reality is that Pingdu Prefecture is a hundred miles in a radius, and many fertile lands are not cultivated, thus turning into wild lands filled with weeds.

It is not that the farmer's households do not want to farm, but that they cannot afford the land. Tenant farmers rent arable land for a year until the end of the year, not only do they not get food, but they owe the government taxes. In addition, natural disasters are frequent, bandits and bandits appear at any time. In such an environment, even if the land is fertile, few people dare to rent it.

What does it mean to allocate land to a land that desires to support a family? It means to receive the wholehearted support of the farmers of the land.

According to historical records, by the 28th year of Wanli (1600), the Ming Dynasty had about 190 million people, and nearly 90% of the population lived in rural areas. The land in the Ming Dynasty was divided into two categories: official land and civil land. The proportion of official land (including military military land and Wangfuzhuang land) was about 30% in the country. The remaining 70% were civil land, and most of the civil land was owned by landlords and gentry. What does this mean? It means that there were at least 60 million farmers in the Ming Dynasty who lost land and were eager to own land.

Of course, these real situations have no direct connection with Feng Jian. Feng Jian calmed down and thought about how to solve the problems facing his current situation. Regarding the production and operation methods of agricultural cooperatives, he could change his appearance and promote it in his wife, but the land ownership cannot be moved casually. Now his own people are just talking less and honestly following the rules of counterfeit.

What Feng Jian thought of was to imitate the production methods of agricultural cooperatives in later generations, and to start gathering all the personnel and materials within his post to collectively reclaim wasteland, collecting production tools and food resources from each household and distributing them uniformly, and distributing different work at the post to the post according to their abilities.

Because all the materials are concentrated and the rationing system is implemented, the food problem of those families without strong labor is temporarily solved, but this is not a long-term solution, and Feng Jian still has to continue to worry about this matter!

In addition, to encourage people's enthusiasm for clearing wasteland, some reward measures can be set up. For example, if the young and strong laborers in the outposts collectively reclaim land, they can spontaneously reclaim wasteland. For every extra acre of wasteland, the outposts will take some of the public grains as rewards or convert them into labor points. In the future, they can exchange grains within the posts with labor points, and in the future, the village people can also exchange meat, vegetables and other side foods at the posts with labor points at the end of the year.

Feng Jian looked at Hu Baocai and said, "Uncle Hu, don't worry, the outpost will not ignore you. I will find a way to help your family solve the difficulties they face!"

Hu Baocai's heart suddenly fell into his stomach and said in a compliment: "Thank you, the little flag official, for your kind treatment. In the future, this useless body of the young man is willing to give you advice."

Listening to Hu Baocai's complimentary words, Feng Jian had goose bumps all over his body, and he tried to persuade him to send Hu Baocai away.

I have been to Huluyan Village for so long and have never met my mother. I took advantage of my spare time to find my mother and walk around. Seeing that my mother had already cooked a pot of porridge and waiting for me, some neighbors around were talking about their mothers. When I saw that I was coming, I greeted her with some compliment.

If Feng Jian was not the small banner officer of his whistle, these neighbors would be so pleased. Feng Jian sighed in his heart while drinking the porridge handed to him by his mother.

The night was approaching, and the mountain breeze blew with autumn, blowing away all the heat of the day. The Huluyan Mountain Village lit up lights, and smoke from the households in the village were emitting smoke.

In the square, everyone was making a simple meal based on their own wheelbarrows. The livestock at home were busy looking for fodder to feed them.

After a simple meal, I spread the bedding on the wheelbarrow onto the ground. The family lie down next to each other, not caring about the bites of mosquitoes in the mountains. When I come to the mountains, I don’t have to worry about the fear. Most people quickly fall asleep.

Those families who lost their relatives in Shuangfeng Valley during the day looked sad and cried in a low voice around their relatives' bodies. The injured men on the battlefield couldn't help but scream.

For these people, Feng Jian is not able to provide them with better help except sympathy. He remembered Hu Dadao said that Huluyan Mountain Village will provide pensions and care for those who are injured and killed on the battlefield, and you have to figure it out if you have time.

The unburned bonfire was burning "crackling", and the undead firelight reflected the faces of the people in Jishao Village. Various sounds quickly sounded in the camp, snoring, farting, and sleeping talks one after another.

...

There is a platform on the top of Huluyan Mountain. The platform is relatively wide. A pavilion is built on it, called Cuifeng Pavilion. It is said that it was built during the Wangmang period of the Western Han Dynasty. Four stone pillars support the tall pavilion body, and a copper bell hangs on each of the eight pavilions. When the mountain wind blows, the copper bell makes a crisp sound. Cuifeng Pavilion is named after this.

Sitting in the pavilion and looking west, you can see the famous Reclining Fo Mountain. The mountain is full of shape and spirit in the moonlight, and it is lifelike. As the saying goes, "The Buddha is a mountain, and the mountain is surrounded by a Buddha." This is not bad at all, and it makes people sigh at the magic of creation.

In the night wind, a thin cluster of clouds and mist lingered among the pavilions on the top of the mountain. People walk in it feel like dreams and illusions, and it seems like a fairyland.

At this time, the stone table in Cuifeng Pavilion was already in a mess. There were more than a dozen shirtless men sitting next to the stone table in the pavilion. They were cheering each other and making loud noises. These rude men did not appreciate the elegant meaning of the fairyland.

Before the banquet began, Feng Jian lent twenty taels of silver from Hu Dadao, preparing to give it to all the counterfeit leaders during the meeting.

According to Hu Dadao's instructions, he gave ten taels of silver when he kowtowed to the commander and gave two taels of silver to each person.

If you want to stay in the copycat, these personal relationships are necessary, especially when Feng Jian became one of the ten small flag officials of the copycat when he first arrived, he was easily envied by people, so this meeting gift is indispensable.

Feng Jian later saw the welcome and sending out between villagers in the countryside. Giving gifts is giving face, and farmers sometimes pay more attention to face.

After refusing to the Huluyan leaders, they all accepted the money. The initial alienation gradually faded away and they began to talk to brothers.

Feng Jian praised Commander Xu and the other leaders in turn and became familiar with everyone. When he was drunk, several leaders patted the "bang" sound on their chests and said bluntly that Feng Jian would come to them if he had anything to do, and would definitely not refuse! Of course, Feng Jian thanked him repeatedly and said that he would bother all the leaders in the future.

Xu Ma Gang kept observing Feng Jian secretly. He felt that although Feng Jian was young, he was very sleek in dealing with people, not like a 17 or 18-year-old boy.

He couldn't help but be surprised. Hu Dadao had already introduced Feng Jian's family background in detail. He was an ordinary farmer. Xu Mabang was preparing to observe Feng Jian carefully for a while. If he was really talented and could be used by himself, Huluyan would not bury him.

During the banquet, Feng Jian roughly understood the current situation of Huluyan through conversations with the leaders.

The commander Xu Ma Gang was in charge of all affairs of the copycat.

The commander is divided into five corpses below, and each corps has one leader.

Each corps has two outposts, and each post has one small flag.

The appointment and removal of officials above the leader are made by the counterfeit commander Xu Ma Gang. The five leaders of the commander of the commander can recommend the small flag officers at the subordinate post, but they must be appointed by the commander Xu before they can take effect.

When defending against the enemy from outside, the leader of the corps has the right to adjust all guards at subordinate posts, and the small flag of the post must comply with the adjustment.

Usually, the specific affairs of the post are controlled by the small flag officer. The leader of the general team does not participate in the specific affairs of the post. Generally, the leader of the general team also serves as the small flag officer of a subordinate post.

For example, Hu Dadao is the leader of the Third Corps of the Copyright and also serves as the small flag officer of the Wushou of the Third Corps. That is to say, five of the small flag officers of the ten posts of the Copyright and are also served by the leaders of the Copyright.

From this, it shows how lucky it is to be promoted to a small flag official as soon as Feng Jian joined the gang. It is false that those who have always been thinking about this position but have failed their wishes to not hate Feng Jian. However, since this was appointed by Commander Xu, no one dared to disobey it on the surface.

Almost all the rights of the counterfeit village are in the hands of the commander Xu Ma. The commander is the only one in the counterfeit village. Everyone and things from top to bottom of the village must revolve around him.

Although you are all bandits who are in trouble, as long as others think that you have harmed his interests, you are a stumbling block in the eyes of others, and there are many tricks behind you, and various means are emerging one after another.

Feng Jian certainly understood this truth in the past and next two lives, so to gain a foothold, the first thing to do is to hold the leader's thick legs tightly, and then to make friends with Hu Dadao and other counterfeit leaders.

If you want to gain a firm foothold in the copycat and manage your subordinate outposts well, you must first let the subordinates eat and wear a good meal and wear, and solve the difficulties they encounter so that you can get the support of the people in the post.
