Chapter 281: Great Unification! (4)

Luo Yongsheng doesn't like the weather in Hangzhou very much. He stayed here for three months and it had to rain for two months.

Even when it doesn't rain, it's a gloomy day, and there are only a few days with the sun.

"The beginning of spring is the rainy time in Hangzhou, which makes the king laugh at it."

Fortunately, the patriarchs of the eight major clans had arrived, and the matter of Luo Yongsheng taking off to Nanchang was put on the agenda.

During this period, military newspapers from Zhou Bai, Peng Cheng and others have been delivered one after another, and the work of suppressing the rebellion and unification in various places has been going smoothly. Now Zhou and Peng have joined forces and are always on guard against the Khitan taking advantage of the situation in Hebei.

"Liu Shitong, who was spreading in Sichuan, also surrendered in order to contact and Shaanxi was the hometown of Kouge Lao. The edict was issued and the great cause of unification went smoothly. The separatist forces in various places disappeared and collapsed. The cabinet began to plan the system in accordance with the instructions of the king. The administrative structures at the provincial, prefecture and county levels began to be established one after another, and the alternation of regimes was very smooth."

The cabinet reported good news to Luo Yongsheng, which also gave Luo Yongsheng more confidence and confidence in the next meeting with the eight major tribes.

"Sending the good news from the cabinet to the newspapers will also create some psychological pressure for the eight major tribes."

With this good news, Luo Yongsheng was not in a hurry to meet the eight major ethnic groups in Fujian and Guangdong who came to Hangzhou, so he had to wait for a few days.

He has to give the eight major tribes some time to digest.

Let the eight major tribes know that the current Great Chu is not a Great Chu with internal and external troubles, but a new country with vigorous vitality and a solid regime with a stable and strong strength.

Luo Yongsheng's purpose was realized. In the following days, the eight tribes of the clans living in the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse all learned about the news. When Luo Yongsheng met them, his attitude was very respectful.

"Caomin and others will meet the king, and the king will never be able to live."

Looking at the butt kneeling on the ground in front of him, Luo Yongsheng laughed and hurried forward to support him: "I, Da Chu, have not kneel down, you must not be like this, I can't bear it."

Everyone knows that Da Chu has no kneeling ceremony, but no matter how you know, who dares to say that Luo Yongsheng is not a petty person?

This is the first time we meet, it’s better to be humble and cautious. Besides, I’ll kneel down and have a lot of pieces of meat.

Supporting the eight people, Luo Yongsheng called him to sit down, his face full of smiles: "Everyone knows that the King of Guangdong and the King of Fujian did not appear due to their identity, so the Chen and Lin tribes changed their representatives, but Gu felt that it was unnecessary, because everyone is the people of my Great Chu, and everyone should treat everyone equally."

All of them were calling hypocritical in their hearts.

What does it mean to treat everyone equally? Among the eight major clans, except for the two surnames Chen and Lin, why don’t you say that you have also named the other six families as kings?

After all, it’s not because only Chen Lin is holding soldiers.

In a good way, this kind of thing is called a different treatment, but in a big way, it is still bullying the weak and afraid of the strong.

"The king's mind is like the sea, and the grass people and others are convinced."

Several old white-bearded men were talking flattering words, but their eyes were full of nervousness when they looked at Luo Yongsheng.

Everyone is waiting for Luo Yongsheng to talk about the serious business.

Fortunately, Luo Yongsheng is not the kind of person who likes to talk nonsense. After pretending to behave, he took the initiative to speak.

"I have been plaguing the world in the past few days and neglected eight elders. Today I finally got the opportunity, but I have to ask you for advice. After all, I am still young. The experience of governing the local area, especially the complicated experience of governing Fujian and Guangdong, is absolutely not as good as that of the elders.

I hope that in the next conversation, the elders can speak out and not be stingy."

"The king is so polite. When it comes to governing the country, we, the people, are not as good as the king even if they are tied together."

Who dares to say here that he knows how to govern the country better than Luo Yongsheng?

Everyone is an adult, and the eight tribes are eight old foxes. No one believes what Luo Yongsheng said.

Is Luo Yongsheng humbly asking for advice today? To put it bluntly, it is actually a matter of nine parties' talks and discussing the distribution of rights.

"The eight major tribes are in Fujian and Guangdong, and have nearly 80% of the land and millions of tenants. These are obviously innately conflicting with the Great Chu system. The laws and national policies of Great Chu are unacceptable and will not be accepted. Therefore, the division of the eight major tribes is imperative."

After all, Luo Yongsheng didn't hide it and said it directly, giving the scene a brief silence.

The eight people looked at each other, and then looked at each other, and no one said a word.

The policy of equalizing land and equalizing labor and taxes in Dachu was obviously a huge impact on the eight major tribes.

Fujian and Guangdong provinces are all landlords and powerful.

"Now, Gu has two plans here, both of which were the opinions that the cabinet had finally come up with after discussing for several months. Please listen to them. If you think there are still inappropriate places, you can put them forward, and we can polish and modify them."

Drinking tea to moisten your throat, Luo Yongsheng took out a cabinet memorial and opened it to read it.

"This first plan was to pay for the Chu court to purchase land from you. Because the number of land involved was too large, the court's finances were difficult to digest for a while, so it was necessary to take measures to raise debts and pay the debts in ten years.

In the second plan, you will rent out the land to tenants and turn the tenants into semi-self-cultivated farmers. Each family will take 10% of the output, and the court will pay an additional 10% to the families. In a total of twenty years, the land will be returned to the people in twenty years."

The two sets of plans have their own advantages. Generally speaking, the core spirit remains unchanged, and they try to ensure that the interests of the eight major tribes are not damaged.

Seeing that the eight old men were still silent, Luo Yongsheng felt a little unhappy and coughed lightly.

"Of course, there is a third plan here, that is, to fight against the local tyrants and divide the land!"

As soon as these words were said, the eight old men finally moved their faces, and they were often moved their butts as if they were sitting on pins and needles.

The first two sets of solutions are peacefully resolved, while the third set is completely two extremes.

This is about to kill someone.

The head of the Yang family was the first to sit still. Among the eight great masters, the Yang family was the least powerful. He was afraid that Luo Yongsheng would be the unlucky guy who killed the chicken and warned the monkey, so he hurriedly spoke.

"The grass-roots want to choose the second set."

Compared with the first plan, although the second plan takes a long time and the returns are not high, it finally has a stable victory. Who knows what fluctuations will occur in the economy of Dachu in the future?

If goods are inflated, the court will mint coins and money in a crazy way, it will be worthless.

The so-called debt-to-buy land is probably because the money given is not even affordable to buy a roast chicken in the later stage.

After the Yang family, the other seven companies have also spoken one after another, and without exception, they have chosen the second plan.

"Okay, the elders are very conscious of the righteousness, and I am very pleased."

Luo Yongsheng said ok and quickly said, "After talking about the land, let's talk about the workshops at your home.

Gu knew that all families had their own salt fields, iron fields, and even silver fields. There is no need to say much about the importance of salt, iron and silver. This must be nationalized. It is precisely because of this, which involves great interests. For the benefit of all you have, Gu intends to add the Price Control Department and the State-owned Resources Department after the acquisition.

The China Resources Department has opened an official business in Fujian and Guangdong, with the country accounting for 60% and the remaining 40% are divided equally by you. Is it feasible?"

"The king is wise!"

It was the head of the Yang family who jumped out first and publicly expressed support.

However, the Chen and Lin families suddenly changed their faces and gave Old Man Yang a vicious look.

Your Yang family has a big salt and iron farm, but now it’s better, pie from the sky.

After the hatred was over, my heart was shaking.

Luo Yongsheng's splitting skills are very good.

Although the Eight Great Masters said that they should share the same fate before, their respective interests could not be equal. Now Luo Yongsheng's equal dividends are to weaken the strong tribe and strengthen the weak tribe, forcing the Eight Great Masters to equalize their strength.

For example, the Li and Yang clans were definitely cheering and would strongly support Luo Yongsheng's policies. In this way, among the remaining six families, Liang and Wu clans, who are of average strength, have not been seriously damaged, and their core interests are likely to become neutral fencemen.

Only Chen and Lin families suffer the most.

You can't object if you suffer a loss.

With just two families, they can beat Luo Yongsheng.

The two old men looked at the smiling Luo Yongsheng and felt a chill that surged from the soles of their feet soared into the sky.

Although the latter was smiling warmly at the moment, behind this smile was the sea of ​​corpses and blood of millions of undead souls.

If you refuse, can you still live?

"If the two elders have any opinions, they can speak freely."

Luo Yongsheng still had the harmless smile of humans and animals, and he took the initiative to speak: "I don't understand. If there is something wrong, if I tell you, I will know where I am wrong and correct it immediately."

You don’t understand, you know how cruel you are. You shouldn’t call King Chu, you should be called King Ming.

The two old men cursed in their hearts, and their grievances passed through the trap.

"The king is wise and the Cao people are happy and convinced!"

The land is gone, and the birth is gone.

But it's okay.
