Chapter 360 There are no idle fields in the four seas!

Taiyuan County has seven counties under its jurisdiction, with its capital in Jinyang and the other six counties, namely Jiexiu, Wu, Zishi, Lishi, Yuci, Huo people, and Qin Luoheng and his group. After leaving Jinyang, they rode their horses to Jiexiu County, which is in Feitunxingying.

It is spring, and the world is starting to farm, and Jinyang is busy.

However, this grand scene did not last long. Less than five miles away from Jinyang City, the busy scene suddenly changed, and the fields became few and far away, but overall it was still quite large. However, as soon as we stepped out of Jinyang County, the situation changed drastically.

In the area of ​​the world, there are few people in the fields, and there are no fewer people here. What’s even more strange is that there are very few strong men in the fields. In the fields, there are almost all women except the old man and the children in the stars.

Seeing this.

Everyone couldn't help but look strange.

Zhang Feng wondered: "How strange, it's the busy farming season now, and the fields should be in a hurry. Why are the fields here sparsely populated, and most of them are old, weak, women and children? Where have the strong men in the world gone?"

Gu hesitated for a moment and said in confusion:

“It’s a bit weird indeed.”

"According to the "Shu Law", even if there are families here that need to be corveted, the family will not recruit two people at the same time, and it is impossible for them to recruit so many strong people in the whole place."

"Even if the strong and strong families of these families have committed crimes, according to the Sikong regulations, when sowing and managing seedlings, prisoners who commit crimes or are sentenced to repay by corvee will be allowed to be given 20 days for them to go home to farm. The local area should not lack strong men."

"What's going on right now?"

Everyone showed a look of incomprehension.

As for the strong family, they are lazy and do not work for childbirth, there is indeed a situation in every village and a mile, but it is impossible for every family to do this. There may be many hidden stories. Thinking of this, everyone's faces slightly.

Qin Luoheng stood with a long body.

Looking at the old, weak, women and children in the fields, my eyes were also filled with thoughts.

He also thought that the First Emperor was a little serious, but when he saw the sparse appearance of the fields, he suddenly realized in his heart how vain the quiet years presented in Jinyang were. The situation in the real world may be the real folk.

Qin Luoheng couldn't help but feel a little sigh.

The frame of the First Emperor is located in the neighboring county, but it is less than a few dozen miles away. However, there is no way to cover up the situation here. The local corruption has reached such a situation?

Qin Luoheng said: "Go up and ask."

After saying that, he walked first and walked in front. Zhang Feng, Gu and others looked at each other and followed him.

They changed into casual clothes before setting off, but there was still a clear difference from the coarse cloth villagers around them.

The fields of the spring moon are particularly cold due to the emptiness and loneliness. The spring breeze under the sun also carries a bit of chilly spring cold. There are few people in the vast fields, mostly women and children. There are no oxen or young people in the fields. The noisy and lively moments should be at this moment, but I can’t feel them at all.

Only endless bleakness!

Qin Luoheng stood in the field and looked at it for a while, frowned, walked towards the two figures on the ground, and asked, "Dare you ask my sister, where is the Jiexiu?"

The woman who was loosening the soil and turning the ground with an iron plow stopped her way. While waving her sweat, she glanced at the person who came. Her yellow and thin face was filled with a slight lingering feeling. However, she still kept a certain alert for outsiders and said vigilantly: "Do you want to buy land?"

Qin Luoheng said: "Sister, we are not here to buy land, we are just passing by here. I wonder how long it is to Jiexiu County?"

The woman looked at Qin Luoheng again, then looked at the people not far behind him, and gasped with a lee, "Jiexiu County? Walking straight to the north is only a dozen miles away, but you have to hurry up, it won't take long to get dark."

Qin Luoheng bowed and said, "Thank you, sister."

After saying that, he took a water bag back and reached out to hand it over.

"Thank you, hero." The woman took the water bag, but did not dare to drink it directly. Instead, she brought two pottery bowls next to the ridge and filled them up. Then she handed the water bag back to Qin Luoheng with both hands, then turned around and shouted at the boy not far away. The boy threw down the iron plow, ran over quickly, picked up the pottery bowl and whispered.

After drinking it, he said in surprise: "Mom, this water is so sweet!"

"A kind-hearted man." The woman smiled tiredly.

Qin Luoheng reached out and handed the leather bag to the boy, saying, "It's just ordinary well water, but I've brought a lot of it out, so I'll leave this for you."

After saying that.

Qin Luoheng swept around and took the initiative to say, "It's spring plowing now. Why are your man not here? Why are there no plowing ox around? Also, when you first met me, why do you think I want to buy land? Qin's law is not a regulation. The land is publicly owned and not allowed to be sold privately? Can you still buy and sell land privately?"

Qin Luoheng took the opportunity to ask what he asked in his heart.

"You hero, it seems like you just fell from the sky." The woman smiled faintly. She was busy for most of the day and wanted to take the opportunity to take a rest. So she sat on the ridge of the field indifferently, and her thick and black palms kept wiping the sweat beads coming out of her forehead.

"Look, you must have come from other places, men? How many families in our village can have men? Men are so precious. Look at you, you don't look like someone who has never been to the fields. Why don't you even know these?"

"The ox? That is for the money-giving person and the master. Where can we get this share?"

"man?"

"All of them were taken to serve labor service."

"If it weren't forcibly employed, would that man dare not go down the field at this time? Then he would be told that he would be caught and repaired roads in other counties."

"I guess the spring plowing will not come back if it doesn't end."

"Mom, don't be sad, and I..." the boy whispered.

"You? You haven't grown up. You still have to go to labor service." The woman suddenly turned black with anger and couldn't help but curse: "The government and those money-makers are in the same group. They deliberately took the man out at this time, just to take the opportunity to force the land."

Qin Luoheng frowned and said in surprise: "Can you still forcefully buy land in your country?"

The woman looked at Qin Luoheng with an indescribable look and said, "We are in the countryside? Are the counties and counties nearby the same? Every time it is busy with farming, the government will conspire with the money-giving people, get the men from each family out, and then start looking for trouble, and buy land at a low price."

"I understand now."

"These people will not give up until they get the fields."

"When they come next time, I'll sell the fields in my house. In this way, my man can at least return home and suffer less in the future."

"Tired!"

Qin Luoheng's face was quite embarrassing, but he was silent.

He wanted to say that buying and selling land is illegal, but at this moment, he couldn't say anything, because he couldn't help. He could help for a while, but he couldn't help for a lifetime. As long as the atmosphere here does not improve, land annexation will always exist.

until......

All Guizhou capitals have become servants!

Qin Luoheng looked at the young man and said slowly: "Youngsheng, your father will come back in the busy farming period. You don't have to sell your land. This is the livelihood of your family. How can you let those money people buy and sell forcibly?"

"Your days will be better!"

"I just want to know, is it serious that the land is being bought and sold here? The government has never stopped it in the past? During the farming season, the government conquered corvee service. Is there no judge who came forward to stop it? Or... the government has been linked with these people?"
