There are clouds in later generations, and the water in spring is warm and the duck is prophet.

What the Mohist was going to do was the first to perceive were those smarter people among the old nobles.

As early as when "merchantists" like Jiao He learned the art of farming in a rural school, some of the little nobles who were originally right with the Mozhe had already begun to contact with the Mozhe.

Especially some of the little nobles with more private fields, they actually do not oppose the Mohist policy of destroying the well fields, recognizing the private fields, and storing the public fields to impose private taxes on private acres.

The former enemy can be friends in the face of interests.

For example, when the Wu Zhu incident was in the beginning, Xia Qi, who wanted to take revenge from the Mo Zhu, saw Mo Zhu's means and power with his own eyes, and heard some ideas about the future, he consciously contacted Mo Zhu secretly.

During the Wu Zhu incident, he gave advice to the little nobles. If the Mohist wants to change his private acres, he should not try to fight, but find ways to gain the most benefits in this irreversible trend.

Unfortunately, the rest of them may not be able to understand and may not be willing to listen.

Xia Qi did not care about those people anymore. As early as this autumn, he took the initiative to meet the ink-like people.

When cast iron and iron farm tools were thrilling in Pei County, Xia Qi's family once again came into contact with the Mozhe.

In fact, Mozhe and such people can really cooperate.

Old nobles like the Xia Qi family who had more private acres but insufficient power could easily become upstarts.

They have money and can buy iron tools.

They have land, but what the Mozhe wants is to destroy the well fields and recognize private acres, rather than dividing the land with small land and large populations.

Once iron tools began to become popular, their land would not require so many people to grow. If you want to get the most benefits, you would take the initiative to drive away some of the land leased people who have appeared and switch to their own land management and plant cotton, oil and other crops.

As agricultural technological innovation spreads beyond Pei County, and even the Mozhe actively helps spread outside Pei County, the more developed exchange economy generated on the basis of agriculture will develop handicrafts and economic crops.

The key lies in the policy of the Mohist. If the Mohist wins over the employed farmers, serfs in the well field, provides loans, iron tools, and provides new land with five-year tax exemption, these people on the original land will soon flee to the Mohist.

If the Mohist does not provide loans to these people, iron tools, etc., and the policy changes slightly, those who originally depend on the land will still easily become "farmers", namely agricultural workers.

A slight policy swing is the difference between supporting and firm opposition.

Considering the development of handicraft industry in the near future, he actually did not want Pei County to be rich self-cultivated farmers. He even... hoped that there would be a group of extremely poor landless people.

So in fact, the Mozhe has room for cooperation with the old nobles who have more private acres and do not rely on a large amount of public land. As long as they are willing to give up their personal dependence, this method of exploitation that has hindered the increase in productivity after the emergence of iron ox plowing.

They can be commercial landlords, they have cattle, horses and land money, and they can grow some new crops to gain wealth.

The old nobles who were still counting on the profit of personal dependence of serfs in the well-field system were unwilling to walk into the garbage dump themselves, and were unwilling to spontaneously change their identities, which made the Mozhe helpless and had to send them a ride.

This time, I feel that it is almost done.

After explaining these principles clearly to the Mozhe present, Mozi said: "The news came from Chu that the King of Chu had dispatched the King's Army, Yangxia's Army, and Chen's Army. Based on the news from Meng Sheng and Qu Jiang, the King of Chu should now go to Anling."

I recalled it and it was almost the same time.

King Chu Sheng either died this year or next year. This time, it is inevitable that it will be inevitable to send troops to siege Song.

Immediately, the three kings of Zhao, Han and Qin were about to die, and King Chu Sheng died about a year earlier than them. It can be said that all countries were going to be in chaos for a while.

If I don’t take advantage of such favorable external conditions to make some big noise, I feel really ashamed of the memories of the early years of the Warring States Period in my mind.

What should Mozhe do in Pei County specifically? In fact, most of the ideas provided are suitable for the ideas.

But now, this incident may cause some controversy, so these words cannot be said by Shi. Mo Zi chose to suppress internal disputes.

Mo Zi agreed with Shi's opinion, but also knew that Shi was still young after all, and many things after the internal reorganization of Mo's people had to be negotiated to reach synonyms among the top and bottom.

In the same way, Mozi and Shi will not receive exactly the same support within Mozhe.

When Mo Zi expressed the opinions that had been discussed at the top, many Mo people who had just learned about it were secretly surprised.

At the end of April and early May, the wheat harvest was harvested, and the base of the Mozhe and the Peixian Yishi would go to Shangqiu at the end of March.

Before going to Shangqiu, private acres were recognized in six townships, the public fields of well fields were abolished, and the military tax, armor tax, and cattle and horse tax in the well fields were included in the tax of the acres.

Before harvesting wheat, according to the principle of one in ten households, several canals in the six townships that can be completed before the end of summer are excavated in advance.

This requires the full cooperation of the iron smelting workshop to produce iron tools for digging trenches.

It is best to mobilize and call for digging the ditches, which is completed before February. If everything goes well, it is just digging the canal; if it doesn't go well, divide the weapons and prepare to fight against the little nobles.

The Mozhe did not completely control the officials in Pei County before. There was only the Mozhe craftsman association in Pei County, and some farmers who joined Peiguo Township, and did not have a real effective rule.

Therefore, three months ago, the Mo people needed to clean up the officials in Pei County at one time, and use the Mo people's standard of "respecting virtuousness" to replace the Mo people with their own people to completely control Pei County.

Without touching the original local people in Pei County, the military tax system was forced to change, the fiefs and public land of the small nobles were broken, and they were forced to pay acres of tax.

Once the private acre tax is paid and the officials in Pei County are replaced with the Mo, the rent of the private land of these little nobles will definitely increase, and then the farmers who rent land will face a choice.

If they cooperate, they will not move, recognize the private acres of the little nobles, and at the same time give loans and iron support to the farmers who rented land, so that the little nobles will be forced to sell uncultivated land.

If they don't cooperate, then move.

Anyway, after the heavy move, no power would touch Peidi within a few years. Even if the Mo people had conflicts with Chu during the defense of the city, as long as the alliance could be reached to ensure that the Song State was absolutely neutral in the battle for hegemony between Jin and Chu, if the power of the Three Jins could go deep into Pei County to attack the Mo people, the Chu people would abandon their past grudges and help.

To sum up, the general process is very clear.

Concentrate the strength of the Mohists and the righteous army to ensure absolute military and political advantages over the old nobles in Pei County.

In early February, farmers in Pei County were recruited to distribute weapons and concentrate on training in the name of water conservancy construction.

At the end of February, the deep-rooted local officials in Pei County were removed, and those who replaced Mo became grassroots officials.

In early March, private acre reform was carried out, well fields were abolished, military taxes and tues were distributed equally, and chariots and horse taxes were entered into private acre tax, but they were not collected for the time being, but were collected in the autumn.

In mid-March, a possible counterattack was met, leaving the local iron smelting recruitment farmers and canals to recruit farmers, as well as some of the Mo people, the main force of the Mo people and the righteous army to go to Shangqiu.

The wheat harvest is at the end of April and the land deed is measured in early May, and it continues until the autumn harvest. After the autumn harvest, taxes are officially carried out according to the new tax system.

If tax efficiency can be maintained and penetrated into the land of the local old nobles, then before next year, these old nobles will definitely pass the tax on the renters who rented their land.

The Mexicans provide iron tools and loans and private acres, inciting farmers who have been raised in physical land to escape, organize them to open up land, and actively intensify conflicts.

Everything goes well. Next spring, the main force of the Mozhe will return and get the status of a vassal state recognized by Duke Song. When the conflict intensifies to the extreme, another group of people will be killed, completely resolved the old nobles in Pei County and completely controlled Pei County.

This is one link after another. If the officials in Pei County are not Mo, then there will be loopholes in many things.

The Mozhe is not a local and has nothing to do with the locals. With their temporary role as officials in Pei County, and with their business capabilities and the support of the military power behind them, they can completely control the situation.

Several Mozhes were confused about this entire plan. Even though Mozi said it, the doubts in his heart were still asked.

"Sir, how can I be considered a virtuous person in Pei County? How can I guarantee that I can be our Mohist? After all, this is related to the virtuous person and the integrity of the Mohist..."

Mo Zi smiled and said, "Shi, can you answer?"

Shi laughed and said, "It's simple! We have grass and silk, which governs acre tax and other things. We need to know nine digits, right? We need to read, right? Then we can take the exam. Those who are capable are superior but those who are unable to do so."

The Mozhe, who asked the question, thought for a moment and said, "Although those subordinates colluded with Wu Zhu back then, they still understood a little. I am afraid that Mozhe would be confident and confident again, and it would be difficult to do it."

Shi pointed to some cheap characters on the wall and a few Arabic numerals with obvious hearts, and smiled and said, "If the questions on the grass and silk test were all written in such words and numbers?"

For a time, many people who already knew couldn't hold back their laughter, while some people who were not yet known were stunned by this "shamelessness".

Shi spread his hands and said, "We respect virtuousness, we keep our promises, and we respect our promises. However, they can't write and write numbers, and they are obviously not virtuous. What can we do? I guess there are twenty people in Pei County, and we are twenty people. We discuss internally whoever wants to go. In the future, children in the village school will learn it, which is another matter."

Someone asked again: "Will there be fewer twenty people?"

Shi shook his head and said, "Many. Many farmers in Pei County are from Peiguo Township. The craftsmen are led by the craftsmen. Everything in the market is as usual. These twenty people only regard Peiyi as a township. The real government of Pei County is still in Peiguo Township."

The man asked again, "These officials... don't they resent? What should they do before we go to Shangqiu?"

After hearing this, Shi raised his head and laughed: "We left three living words at the time. Did those officials also make money with Wu Zhu? Didn't say it at that time, but it doesn't mean we forgot it, nor does it mean that this matter does not exist."

"Since you have participated, then you can take it back. If you count the interest, it will be calculated based on the interest of the large Peiyi household. You will have to repay it after so many years."

"Can't afford it? Then do labor and labor and arrest them all. Isn't the iron mine shortage? If you can escape from where you can cause trouble, I think they have the ability!"
