Chapter 538 Tian Zheng.
The remnants of the clan intended to continue to clarify the land affairs in Changning County and cause trouble within the Sui Dynasty to restrain Li Mu from sending troops to Tuyuhun.
Now that such a thing happened in Changning County, Li Mu naturally had to ignore it. For Li Mu, he had to use the fastest speed to pacify the affairs of Changning County.
Changning County is also a wealthy county in the south of the Yangtze River. Due to the many waters in the south, the irrigation conditions in the entire Changning County are very good, and the soil quality of the land is also quite good.
There were many clans in the Great Sui Dynasty, with countless clans in one county, and small clans in one county.
Even in a village, there are landlords and powerful people with great prestige in the local area.
The local people are generally divided into two types, usually ordinary people who have their own fields, and the other is tenant farmers who rent local family and powerful land to grow.
In the Great Sui Dynasty, it is logical that every citizen should have planted a field. However, there are exceptions in everything.
For example, when the disaster comes, the people cannot survive. In order to survive, they have to sell their own land to local landlords and family members.
After the land was sold, although it came over that year, life would be difficult.
From now on, it is only possible to rent landlords and family members to grow land, and to live as tenants for others.
For example, in Changning County, the registered arable land is more than 300,000 mu. After killing the aristocratic families this time, more than 400,000 mu of land were added out of thin air.
As soon as the clans collapsed, half of the land in this county was added out of thin air. Moreover, most of them were fertile land and good paddy fields.
Let’s see what fields are in the hands of ordinary people, they are all dry fields with inconvenient irrigation, and even terraced fields on hillsides.
The family just needs to lie on the body of the Sui Dynasty to suck blood and suck bone marrow. It can be said that the family of the family collapsed and became richer in the Sui Dynasty.
The most fundamental reason for the riot in Changning County is injustice.
Since a large number of officials at the bottom of the Great Sui Dynasty were apprentices from aristocratic families, after the accident of aristocratic families, they died, fled, and were beaten.
After a large number of officials at the bottom were punished, almost all newly promoted officials were local officials.
The purpose of promoting these officials to temporarily exercise power on behalf of officials at all levels is to temporarily stabilize the situation.
After all, if there were no officials at the bottom of the Great Sui Dynasty, it would mean that there would be no police in modern society, and it would inevitably be in chaos.
Yang Guang naturally knew that these promoted officials had limited abilities. Therefore, the government affairs of each county were basically shelved, and the newly appointed officials would handle it after the imperial examination was over.
However, other things can be dealt with on the shelves, but this is the only way to divide the land.
People from aristocratic families have all run away, and these fields cannot be deserted. Therefore, they must be cultivated as soon as possible, otherwise it will inevitably affect the harvest in the coming year.
In desperation, officials from all over the country came to take charge of the land division.
However, these newly promoted officials may be because of their limited abilities, or perhaps they are based on the concept of not using rights and being expired and invalidated.
In terms of the matter of dividing the land, they did not do it fairly. It was precisely because of the dividing the land that caused Bai Xin's resentment, and Li Miyu Culture and others were instigating it, and the people were naturally in a slaughter.
By the time Li Mu led people to Changning County, this public anger not only involved the area of Changning County, but had swept across the entire Jiangnan area.
In the entire Jiangnan area, at least a dozen counties had conflicts with the people, causing murder.
Many officials who divided the fields were beaten to death in the fields on the spot because of their unfair behavior.
After Li Mu came to Changning County, he realized that this matter is now fermenting far more severely than he expected.
People regard food as the most important thing, where does food come from? This is what grows from the ground.
The common people face the loess and their backs facing the sky, digging food and eating in the ground. If their land is moved, it will be like their lives!
In ancient China, this was the most important thing for a country to farm and fight civilization, farm, and fight.
Even this farming is more than war.
Li Mu knew that if he couldn't handle the matter of dividing the land well, he would never be able to get out and fight with Tuyuhun.
This is the purpose of the remnants of the clan, but even though they knew that their purpose was like this, Li Mu had to be deceived.
Changning County, city gate.
When he heard that General Li Mu came, a group of officials from Changning County hurried out to greet him. At the same time, a large number of people had already gathered at the gate of the city.
"General, we are wronged!"
"Please also ask the general to make the decision for us!"
"Please make the decision for us!"
......
......
As soon as they saw Li Mu, groups of people fell to the ground and shouted that they were wronged.
Due to conflicts with the government, although some officials in the division were beaten to death in the fields by angry people.
However, the people who suffered even more were naturally these people. In addition to those who died tragically after clashing with the government, many people were later arrested and imprisoned.
"General, don't listen to these unruly people's nonsense!"
"There are only so many fields here, and there are traces to be followed by how to allocate them!"
"We have registered and booked in our warehouse. You think his family has more divisions, and he thinks his family has more divisions."
"How can we deal with this parent Zhang, Li's family's fault!" Speaking of this, the newly promoted county magistrate of the local area fell to his knees on the ground and cried bitterly: "General, although the villain has limited ability, he is dealing with it impartially!"
"Although it is not absolutely fair and just, there may be little flaws, and there will be no big mistakes!"
The county magistrate of Changning County took the lead and the officials of Changning County behind him also knelt on the ground.
On one side, the people shouted for wrongdoing, and on the other side, the county magistrate also shouted for wrongdoing. Of course, one of these two parties is really wrongdoing, and the other is false wrongdoing.
However, it is difficult to judge who is true and who is false before Li Mu finds out.
However, since the remnants of the clan chose to take Changning County as the goal and triggered the public anger here first, it means that this is definitely the biggest problem in the entire land division operation.
Paper cannot keep the fire. If you do this, you will inevitably leave your feet.
As long as you work hard to investigate everything, you will definitely be able to find out the clues.
The extrajudicial madman Zhang San once said that there is no perfect crime in this world.
Li Mu didn't believe what kind of flower life could be played in this small Changning County.
Changning County is the root of the whole matter. Only by figuring out the matters in Changning County can we continue the land division action.
