Chapter 796 Salary from the bottom of the pot
Manpower is a rigid indicator, and it cannot be compensated by money and food.
Although Fang Jun has a big family and a great business, and his navy has also opened up a way of "robbing by order", but in terms of population, he really can only sigh and be helpless.
In fact, as the head of the Three Wus, Wu Jun's strength and potential are beyond doubt.The county governs ten counties, with more than ten thousand hectares of cultivated land, and more than [-] registered households.But these are all registered civilians. If some civilians with little or no land in their homes voluntarily give up renting and farming land and come to Huating Town to work for a living, they will be fine.But no farming is unstable, if Fang Jun forces these civilians to give up farming the land, it will be a big deal.
It's all because His Majesty Li Er's scruples have cut his mind, even if Jiangnan's taxes are actually in the hands of His Majesty Li Er, there is nothing wrong with it...
"There are still people in the reed marsh?" Fang Jun became more and more surprised: "Not to mention that the reed marsh is dark and humid, full of snakes, mice, rats and ants, and it is impossible to live in it. several?"
Pei Xingjian's face was solemn: "According to what I have heard recently, the reeds stretch for hundreds of miles, and harvesting just requires a lot of hands. The gentry families in the south of the Yangtze River hid a large number of refugees in the reeds, and harvested the reeds to boil salt. Among them, the Gu family in Jiangdong Worst of all, it is said that his family plundered a large number of civilians along the coast, captured or deceived them, and imprisoned them in the reed marshes, guarded by dead soldiers, and the number of civilians imprisoned was no less than [-]!"
Fang Jun took a breath: "You're crazy, right?"
Three thousand people?
There are less than 13 registered citizens in Wu County, and the national registered population did not exceed 2000 million in Zhenguan 3000 years ago. There are [-] people in just such a patch of reeds?
Su Dingfang sighed: "It's really not impossible. There are ten provinces, 350 and eight prefectures in the country, and there are disaster-stricken places almost every year. If ordinary people can't survive in the local area, they will become refugees, especially Jiangnan East Road and Jiangnan West Road. , a large area of barren mountains, wild mountains, poor mountains and bad waters, frequent floods, and countless civilians who are not registered. Once these people cannot survive in the local area, they will spontaneously go to the prosperous Sanwu land and become slaves of the wealthy and aristocratic families. 3000 people are hidden in the reed Dangli, it’s really not too difficult.”
Su Dingfang is not as good as Pei Xingjian when it comes to essays; when it comes to martial arts, he is not as good as Liu Renyuan and Xi Junbu.But when it comes to military strategy, experience and insight, these people are far inferior to Su Dingfang.
After so many years of fighting with Li Jing, what things haven't you seen?
3000 people were imprisoned in the dark and damp reeds full of snakes and insects. They felled reeds and boiled sea salt for the Gu family. On the one hand, they created huge wealth for them, but on the other hand, they were treated worse than pigs and dogs...
Fang Jun immediately slapped the table: "Then let these beasts spit out their mouths!"
Pei Xingjian was taken aback, but thinking of what Fang Jun said on the warship, he felt relieved, knowing that Fang Jun must also have a draft, and he would not force it.
Su Dingfang didn't know about this section, so he hurriedly dissuaded him: "General Manager, don't be reckless! Even if you want to send troops to bring back all these reed marshes, you must make a detailed layout and plan carefully, otherwise you will rashly arouse the rebound of the Jiangdong gentry. It can easily lead to corruption, and the gains outweigh the losses.”
Liu Renyuan also said: "The governor is right. The general manager only needs to think about how to deal with the aftermath. The dead soldiers raised by mere aristocratic families are just like piggies in front of our elite sailors. It's just killing!"
Pei Xingjian caressed his forehead, why are they all a bunch of violent men?
The dead soldiers who are still raised, aren’t those soldiers under your command not long ago the family members who were raised by various families in Guanzhong?Is there a difference?How dare you arrogantly treat others like poodles?
Fang Jun laughed, and said confidently: "If everything has to be resolved by violent means, wouldn't it be too unskillful? This Marquis is a man who is determined to surpass Mei Zhoulang, and he can deal with those aristocratic and powerful families in a flash! "
Hearing this, everyone present rolled their eyes...
Is it really possible to compare with Zhou Gongjin by saying "the mast and scull disappear in smoke while talking and laughing"?Not to mention that Zhou Gongjin is extremely intelligent, but the word "Mei Zhoulang" alone makes you feel ashamed, right?

Xiao's mansion in Haiyu City was built in the center of the city, not far from the county government.
The walls of the courtyard are high, and it looks ordinary on the outside, but there are hidden holes in the inside.Not to mention the beautiful garden scenery, but behind the wall there is a double-walled corridor. In case of emergency, hundreds of family members will guard it according to this, and they can keep the thousand-man brigade out of the wall and stand by for help.
The members of the Xiao clan, who have experienced countless turmoil and crises, know the way to be cautious and safe best.
The buildings in the courtyard are also very distinctive. Each of the four watchtowers occupies a corner, and you can have a panoramic view of the movement inside and outside, especially the watchtower in the northwest corner, which puts the entire county government under your sight...
Xiao Ming sat in the flower hall with a dejected expression, his mind drifted away, and he remained silent.
The blow of the termination of his official career almost broke his whole body. A person's lifelong ideal fell short because of a completely unnecessary negligence. Thinking about it, it is an unacceptable setback and regret...
Xiao Ban looked at this junior who he had grown up with, stroked his gray beard, and sighed quietly.After I received a summons from Beijing and was warned not to fight against Fang Jun, I sternly notified Xiao Ming, but he refused to listen, so I really couldn't complain about Fang Jun. Xiao Ming was completely self-inflicted and complained. Who is coming?
For Zhu Jian and Zhu Qu brothers in the hall, Xiao Ban naturally didn't have a good face.
The reason why Xiao Ming kept persuading him and insisted on going his own way, wasn't it because he was bewitched and instigated by Zhu Qu?This person is greedy for money, has no character, and I don't know why Xiao Ming, who has always been proud and arrogant, flirted with him and became a close friend. He is really unkind...
The breeze outside the window is soothing, and the fragrance of tea is overflowing in the hall.
Xiao Ban just motioned slightly with his hands to ask the Zhu brothers to help themselves, then he picked up a cup of tea by himself, sat down on the ground mat with eyes downcast, drank slowly and tasted the fragrance of the tea.
The Zhu brothers smiled awkwardly, they were not thirsty at first, but Xiao Ban ignored them, Xiao Ming looked gloomy, it was extremely embarrassing to sit like this, so they each poured a cup of tea, but there was no use in holding it in their hands, Boringly looking at the decorations around, I feel very upset.
The interior decoration of the flower hall fully shows the rich and noble nature of the Xiao family. The hanging beams and colored walls are exquisitely decorated, and the utensils are inlaid with gold and silver.Just in front of the red sandalwood screen, the blood-red, crystal-clear and jade-like coral is several feet high, decorated with jade leaves and pearls and fruits, and underneath is a white jade bucket. If there is a breeze blowing, the precious light will flow, just like a fairy. Among the things, even the Zhu brothers who have seen countless extravagant and rare things can't help but look at them frequently, wondering secretly.
The silence continues...
After all, Xiao Ban is a kind person, although he is not resentful that Zhu Qu has dragged Xiao Ming down here, but when he comes to the door, he is a guest, and it is not the Xiao family's way to treat guests so coldly.
After pondering for a while, Xiao Ban said: "You two know that Fang Jun invited Xian Kunzhong to meet at my Xiao's house, what's the matter?"
Zhu Jian hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "I don't know, but yesterday I received a letter sent by Fang Jun, saying that I have something to discuss with the Zhu family and the Xiao family, but he is busy with work and can't spare time to visit one by one. In order to make my brother come to Xiao's house and discuss together."
Xiao Ban said "oh", and he already knew it in his heart.
What business is so busy that you don't have time to call on them one by one?It was basically the Xiao family that Fang Jun wanted to meet, and the Zhu family was just incidental.This is Fang Jun's respect for Song Guogong Xiao Yu, and it can also be regarded as a signal - I respect you a foot, and you have to pay me back!Everyone carried the flowery sedan chair, and the face was given to come and go.
If it's just the Zhu family, Fang Jun can send someone to call their brothers, and even come to see them?
Who do you think you are...
However, Xiao Ban also secretly became vigilant. Judging from his past behavior style, Fang Jun is also an extremely arrogant and arrogant dude. In fact, even if the Xiao family has a high status, it is only Xiao Yu who can overpower Fang Jun. Duke of Song, as for the name of the Xiao family in Lanling, would that kid take it seriously?If Xiao Yu still hadn't returned to the capital, Fang Jun would of course come to see him, but now that Xiao Yu is no longer here, he can recruit himself to the Navy Camp or some other "town office", but now he has to personally lower If Fang Jun came to the door with his identity, it meant that if Fang Jun's proposal this time was rejected by the Xiao family, then he would turn his back on the spot!
I came here in person, but you didn't give me face, so don't get along well in the future...
Although Xiao Ban felt uneasy, he didn't know what Fang Jun was doing, so it must not be so difficult to think about it.But thinking of the entrustment that the seventh brother had given him before he left, he secretly calmed down.
Whatever it is, just agree.
Could it be that Fang Jun still allowed himself to go up to the oil pan at the bottom of the mountain and pull up the banner to rebel?
Why are there so many rewards today?It seems that there is no "prohibited" thing written...
