The first sixty-five chapters Yu Sheng's old law Sishui Qing (8)

When Jiao He sensed that the Mohist had moved, the Mohist had already controlled the situation in Peiyi.

The Yi Shi and the Mo Zhu were stationed in the city and controlled most of the streets.

Those people who gathered together in the name of preparing to dig canals and then distributed weapons outside Peiyi City.

The soldiers guarding the city had long been controlled by Mozhe. Except for leaving the south gate, all the remaining city gates were closed.

The one who guards the city gate is the most elite organized city gatekeepers.

Shi was still talking about it. The things he talked about were not for the minor officials, nor for the people to listen to, but for the spies hidden in Peiyi and merchants who had the ability to wander around other countries.

It was originally just a seemingly fair selection of talents, because the Mohist did not pay attention to those "talents" at all, and it was turned into a gathering that promoted extreme ideas such as "whether kings, princes, generals and ministers are better than others", "equality in the world".

Many ideas about selecting talents need to be practiced to make people more clearly understand, and they also need to apply their own words to explain many hidden rules clearly.

Just as he was about to tell the last rule, Mo Chengzi waved at the restless lieutenants and blew the wooden whistle in front of his chest.

Almost at the same time, the Mozhe swordsman, who had already been prepared, suddenly drew out the short sword and captured all the minor officials on the list of imitations with lightning speed.

In the short chaos of the crowd, he stood tall and shouted: "Don't panic! Mo is to benefit the world and eliminate the harm of the world! You have not harmed the world, so why are you panic?"

The bad reputation of imitating Chengzi has been spread throughout Peiyi. Even though the town pavilion does not belong to Peiyi, many people in Peiguo Township also live in Peiyi.

In addition, those who were hanged by Mo in the village pavilion were still hung outside the city. The onlookers were nervous when they saw Mo in the sudden action.

But just as parents need a red face and a white face, they always look happy, they look harmless, and have enough prestige in Peiyi.

As soon as he shouted, the crowd suddenly became quiet.

"Now, I will explain the last criterion for selecting virtuous people: those who violate prohibitions, violate orders, issue laws, and harm the world will not participate."

"Mo announced that he was prohibited from participating in this selection of wise men on the charge of harming the world."

After he pronounced the names of the minor officials who colluded with Wu Zhu, he asked everyone without mentioning the charges, "Do you know why they harmed the world?"

The people have either experienced it personally or heard the charges of Mozhe dealing with Wu Zhu. These collusion between officials and Wu Zhu is well known to everyone in Peiyi.

If I asked in two years, maybe no one would dare to answer.

But now, Mozhe is next to him, and there is a Mozhe or a righteous master in a city lineup behind him. How dare everyone dare?

"Collaborate with Wu Zhu to make money!"

"Embede the public land!"

“The field is not evenly taught!”

"Stolen selling taxi cars!"

All kinds of charges that they knew or guessed were shouted out like this.

Shi listened for a while and said, "Since everyone knows these crimes, is it wrong for the people set by Mozhe to not participate in the rules of selecting talents?"

"right!"

“It’s right!”

Everyone shouted, and the few sting officials looked pale, and only one of them was still supporting him. They couldn't help asking, "Shi! Why should Mozhe catch us?"

Shi smiled and said, "Because you are harming the world."

The minor official laughed and said, "I don't hear that there are such crimes in this world! Don't you, the Mo, emphasize the law of the people? Don't you, only harm and not guilt? Why should you arrest us?"

Shi shook his head and said, "You have not committed any crime or violated the law. It's just that you harm the world, so the Mohist will punish you. In the name of benefiting the world, it is not the first time we have done such a thing."

The minor official roared: "Will you do this too, princes and nobles harm the world?"

This question has been explained a long time ago, and then he explained it again, and then said: "You are not against the law, so what you deal with is not the law, but the Mo's heart that benefits the world. If you have any hatred, you can come to Mo's people, and we are not afraid."

What he said was not as fierce as he was on the slightest.

The Song Kingdom was about to be in chaos. The Three Jins were focused on fighting for hegemony with Chu. In a few years, no force could threaten the Mozhe in Pei County.

He retreated to the back, Mo Chengzi stepped forward with expressionless face, and several Mozhes escorted the three Wu Zhus from the beginning, and identified the people among the minor officials who colluded with Wu Zhu to make money one by one. It was certain.

As for the way of handling it, there is the last Wu Zhu incident as a precedent, and many people have guessed the way Mozhe dealt with it.

As expected, after reading these little officials' embezzlement and privately divided property, Mo Chengzi recited: "The above money is collected according to the interest they lend on their daily life, and the quantity is as follows:..."

"If the land, industry, gold and jade cannot be replenished, they will go to the mine to dig iron ore to repay the debts of the people. The children in the family who are confirmed to be unaware of the matter will be exempted from labor. Those who are familiar with the matter, those who have enjoyed money will go to the mine to work. They may die or pay off their debts."

"The servants, servants, sons-in-law, and those who sell their bodies in the family are all under the jurisdiction of the Mo, and they will make a living for them a year later."

After he finished speaking, the minor officials still wanted to shout truths. The truths of imitating Chengzi's heart have already been explained clearly. I don't want to listen to your truths. After a lot of it, my voice was hoarse, and he might not be willing to say them.

He nodded at the ink masters and rushed up immediately to remove the chins of the officials, or tied his mouth with hemp ropes.

The Mozhe who was waiting nearby immediately passed the message to his colleagues who were waiting for home search and accounting, and there were crying in the distance.

The people nearby have seen each other once, and they know that the Mozhe will not affect them when doing things. I don’t know who took the lead and shouted “Okay”.

Soon, the cheers were heard, complementing the crying in the distance.

After everyone calmed down, they said: "Mo wants to benefit the world and follow the law. I think you have heard about the laws between the town pavilions."

In the past two years, the living standards of the towns where the Mozhes went deep have been continuously improved, with the yield per mu increased, and the by-products increased, and the no tax was collected for the time being. It can be said that the living standards are much higher than those of ordinary people in Peiyi.

It is people walking to the high places and water flowing to the low places. Everyone hopes to live a better life, but it is just a city wall. It is better to live outside the city and the farmers in the city are not doing well, and they have long been looking forward to it.

After hearing what the Mohzhe said, someone had already shouted out something like knowing, willing.

He said: "In the village pavilions, everyone has made a promise, this is what you all have heard of."

"Today, the Mozhe proposed the Peiyi Constitution. If you agree, you must admit it."

"There are different village pavilions from you. They are divided into groups, each selects representatives, and then selects people to attend the meeting. There are not many people. In Peiyi City, it has not been like this yet. Let's explain it clearly today. Five days outside the city will discuss whether it agrees or corrections may occur."

"Everyone, don't be confused, listen to me and finish all the laws!"

The person who maintains order nearby and the secretary who is responsible for conveying the communication has already been in place, and he can be said to be familiar with it.

A Peiyi reform plan drafted by the Mozhe is adapted to the local dialect of Pei County and is told in a casual manner.

"One: land tax and land tax."

"From the spring of next year, all military taxes will be added to private fields."

"All local farmers no longer need to work in public fields as military taxes. All military taxes are distributed equally to personal private acres, and the taxes are the same."

"In a year, the Imperials teach the skills of farming. Anyone who can master and who originally cultivates in the public fields can buy public fields, or buy them in groups."

"The purchase of public land does not require payment in one go. Anyone who is recognized as qualified by the Imperial Person can pay off the money purchased from the public land in ten years."

"Among them, the Imperials can borrow the iron tools that can master the skills of the farming skills to repay the food in three years. Anyone who masters the skills of the farming skills can also form a group and give priority to the plowing cattle and horses."

"Qiujiafu, Pimaqiu cattle fu abolished the tax on private acres, and all the cattle and horses in Pei County's offices are temporarily under the jurisdiction of the Mo people."

"All scholars and nobles no longer bear military taxes. The serfs who have enthroned the land will pay taxes in Pei County. Anyone who is threatened by the nobles will be punished. How to punish them will be discussed in five days."

"The private land of nobles must be reported in full before May. Anyone who conceals it will be punished by five times the tax; anyone who does not recognize or transfers it to the rented farmers shall be owned by the rented farmers."

"All nobles pay taxes, and there are no exceptions. Those who do not pay will be fined and confiscated for the amount, and will be sold to the public in Pei County."

"All public land and private acres are measured clearly before May. The specific tax rate will be tentatively determined by the Mexicans and will be discussed in five days."

"Anyone who has no land can go to Peiguo Township before December this year to make a clearance and registration. The Imperials will arrange it, either arrange farming or arrange a hundred laborers."

"All land cannot be bought and sold within three years."

"All wastelands must be reclaimed from the town pavilion and the land officials in Peiyi. If they are allowed to reclaim, they will be exempted from tax for three years, and the tax rate will be set after three years."

"Anyone who is willing to reclaim grass can register in Peiguo before 12 months, and the Imperials will prepare iron and agricultural tools and pay them back in three years."

His voice was not too loud, but it was terrible around him. Even though Peiyi was a city, there were still a large number of farmers in the city.

To be precise, they are the real "population" of Peiyi, Song State, because the original Song State's office and nobles were difficult to manage a place fifty miles away from the city wall.

A large number of farmers are naturally concerned about the changes in private acre taxes.

Taxes and taxes are different. Most of the harvests in public fields are taxes, and a small amount is taxes.

Tax fields and Fu fields are nominally different. Public fields that are used as tax fields are nominally for sacrifices; public fields that are used as tax fields are used as wars.

But in fact, since the Spring and Autumn Period, this rule has been unacceptable, and it has even existed in an ideal society that exists on bamboo slips from the beginning.

The private acre tax reform, but the public land tax has not disappeared, and the entire Song Dynasty tax system was chaotic, so when it comes to the private acre reform, it immediately caused a sensation.
