Shortly after that little drunkenness, representatives from all over the country who returned to participate in this Mohist synonym, and the synonym was held in September as agreed.

There were a total of 107 people participating in the synonym, including those from all over the country.

The meeting in the first three days was considered semi-public, basically it was the radicals or person in charge who reported on the development and roughly informed the current Mohist family's current family background.

After the Battle of Shangqiu, the Mo family began a large-scale expansion. To date, there are more than 4,300 people on the list.

Not much, but in this era, it is already an extremely terrifying force.

Now the Mohist family controls Peixian and Pengcheng, infiltrating some villages and communities near Liuyi, helping Teng Kingdom restore the country, and has a very strong influence on the development of the Song Dynasty.

At the same time, Niu Lan in Luyang controlled power there in the name of helping Luyang Gongzhiyi.

In Wancheng, Nanyang, the first iron smelting workshop in Chu State has also been completed and some agricultural tools and iron tools have begun to be produced.

The salt pond in Badi, Zaomei Qisui and others also controlled some of them there, and had a lot of contact with the Mo people in Chu.

In the land of Wu and Yue, some of the nobles of Wu also frequently contacted the Mo people there.

The real essence of the Mohist family is now expanded to Huling and permeated Pei County, which has mostly been left in the country.

There are more than 56,000 local self-cultivated farmers in Pei County, which is a statistics after completely controlling the grassroots villages and communities. There are also a large part of Huling and Liuyi near Pei County, as well as those who have arranged for cultivation after escaping from various places.

In addition to the self-cultivated farmers, there are more than 25,000 people including "official" handicraftsmen affiliated to the Mohist workshops, mining and smelting operators, village teachers who are paid by the Mohist family, and full-time soldiers who are not responsible for recruitment.

The villages and communities in Liuyi have basically been organized, and the population can be basically controlled is about 60 villages and communities, with nearly 9,000 households.

The number of people in Pengcheng is similar to that in Pei County, but the number of handicraftsmen and non-self-cultivated farmers is relatively small.

After the resumption of Teng Kingdom, the demographic statistics were being compiled and naturalized, with about 30,000 households. For the nobles, the population of a city depends on how many people there are in the city, and for the Mohists who can penetrate the grassroots level, it is a complete statistics.

At this time, even if the city with more than 30,000 households is a big city, it can now be regarded as a big city, which is the newly built Peiguo, which is the gathering place for the Mohist handicraft industry.

There are two iron smelting furnaces in Pei County, each furnace can produce 4,000 kilograms of iron every day, which is not much.

A Pengcheng.

The supporting workshops such as cooked iron mixing furnace, annealing furnace, casting mold, sand turning, agricultural tools, military industry, pots, etc. are basically concentrated in Peiguo.

There are also a series of workshops such as primitive porcelain, papermaking, and winemaking.

These workshops rely on handicraft products to support the Mohist family's increasing expenses, and saved enough food, allowing the Mohist family to raise a group of "civil servants" far higher than the times.

Pei County has been in a state of "high accumulation" in recent years. In the early days, the Mohist family used the method of different redemption of iron tools, and allowed most of the surplus grain from the farmers to enter the Mohist warehouse.

In addition, the people were organized to build water conservancy and dig ditches, so that there were 800,000 mu of fields in Pei County that could be irrigated by ditches.

The cultivation methods of potatoes, corn, spring and autumn, wheat and soybeans in winter and summer have also maintained the farmland output in Pei County at a world-class level.

For land that cannot be irrigated, the average yield per quarter is 120 kilograms of wheat.

Some of the irrigable ones have an average yield of 180 kilograms of wheat per quarter.

The newly reclaimed land, the farmers' own composting land, etc., can reach a terrible amount of 250 kilograms per mu.

As for those sweet potatoes, potatoes, carrots, etc. that replace part of the staple food, the yield is higher, but most of them are used to make wine.

Last year alone, Pei County's agricultural tax revenue reached three million stones of weekly small stones, but this is weekly small stones. On average, the average burden of each household is only 40 stones, which is about one hundred kilograms per agricultural population.

If this is somewhere else, it must be a harsh policy.

Later generations Mengchangjun tried hard to lend money to usury. The Xueyi households earned 100,000 yuan in interest every year... and exchanged for food, it was only a pitiful 30,000 stone. With this income from his own land and fiefdom, he supported three thousand guests.

In Qi, Chu and other places, the price of a stone of corn is basically thirty cents, which is equivalent to one pound of corn, each of which is half a tael of copper. Because agricultural productivity is not developed, there is no surplus grain for commodities exchange.

Under the technology of planting seeds in the sky, even if it is converted into a large acre of weight and measure by the Mohist school, the yield per mu is only a few dozen kilograms per mu. After deducting what you eat, very few can be left.

However, in Pei County, with the support of the average household of 120 acres of land, iron ox plowing and water conservancy, as well as the rotation of good seeds and ridges, taking the classic crop rotation of winter wheat and summer soybeans as an example, if the year is good, each household can earn 20,000 kilograms of wheat and 15,000 kilograms of soybeans.

The average household pays 40 small stones, about 1,200 kilograms, about 15 taxes, and one tax. In Pei County, it can indeed be considered good governance rather than harsh governance.

However, in other countries, this county can earn so much grain into storage and does not flee on a large scale, which is really a strange story.

Even so, these agricultural incomes are still only small compared to the profit income of various Mohist workshops.

Ironware, spirits, primitive porcelain, etc. are strictly prohibited from private ownership. The grain exchanged along the rivers around the Song area every year is much higher than the agricultural taxes in Pei County.

This made the prices in Peidi extremely strange.

If a household earns 30,000 kilograms of grain and puts it elsewhere, it is also a wealthy household with a annual income of 10,000 yuan, but in Pei County... most people have never seen copper coins at all, and they are not considered rich households.

The agricultural revolution is the foundation of the handicraft revolution. The agricultural reform in Pei County has been completed. It is not counted as the excess profit of iron tools. A conversion ratio of the average labor volume will gradually be achieved.

However, the copper mines in Chuyue and other places have not reached the average agricultural production of Pei County. The copper that can be exchanged for each year in name is extremely terrifying... The agricultural tax in Pei County can be exchanged for 2 million copper according to the price ratio of the copper-grain of Chu. With the gradual transformation of Chu's agriculture, this exchange ratio will gradually decline. However, now Pei County uses iron, spirits, primitive porcelain and other handicraft value-added products every year to exchange for huge amounts of copper.

After the increase in grain production in Pei County, the animal husbandry and breeding industries gradually developed. On the one hand, it can provide more cattle and horses, and on the other hand, cattle, horses and pig manure can also increase grain production by fertilizing the fields.

The high-accumulative, excessive iron profits and the policy of redeeming cattle and horses in installments implemented by the Mohist family in Pei County have not enjoyed much every year.

The farmer's life is naturally better than before, but compared to those outside homes where "money money is earned a year" is far behind.

Fortunately, I have enough food, and I can eat a few meals a year, and vegetable oil can supplement fat, etc., so there is no problem.

The amount of money and food piled up by the Mo family's treasury and the amount of money and food in the Pei County government is astonishing.

This is a very subtle point in time.

It has been six or seven years since the Shangqiu coup began to undergo a large-scale transformation in Pei County.

Iron tools with excess profits, cattle and horses transported from the north, are handed over to farmers through installments. Until this year, most farmers will completely repay these agricultural necessities that need to be redeemed in installments.

In other words, all the dividends of agricultural reform in six or seven years were basically concentrated in the hands of the Mo family, and not much of the farmers retained. The strong material foundation was the fundamental reason why many people in the Mo family dared to fight against the Yue Kingdom with the power of two mere counties.

On the other hand, a large number of farmers are about to usher in their good days: the things they bought in installments are their own. After the tax amount of 15-10 per year is paid, the surplus grain has increased greatly, and more handicraft goods are needed to enrich these purchasing power. The population and land controlled by the Mohist school are still too small, so the battle against Vietnam is imminent.

In addition, this is the time when the people are at their peak. All the achievements after the reform are in sight, and they have survived the early accumulation period. At this time, we can mobilize with all our might and cheer up people.

Coupled with the most important external environment, the war between Jin and Chu is approaching, and the civil turmoil in Qi is about to end. Once the Mo family misses, it will be difficult for the Mo family to have such a good opportunity.

These things can be used as a real reason for disputes.

…………

After the semi-public synonym meeting ended a few days ago, all participants had a closed-door discussion, as many years ago, this time it was fully debated in mid-September.

The preparations were sufficient, and more than half of the support was obtained. More than 80 out of 107 people supported the idea of ​​Shi, opposing the full efforts to promote the fight in the Central Plains, but temporarily put their minds on the edge outside the Central Plains.

In fact, it only took three days to criticize Wei Yue's ideas.

Three days later, it is more of a radical idea of ​​opposing the radical idea of ​​"solving the Vietnamese issue in one world, and once you win, you can win and settle the county."

The Mo family has begun to generally distrust princes and nobles, and some are too optimistic about the strength of the Mo family. If they are appropriate, they insist on developing silently. Do not make such big moves before there are enough Mo people, otherwise they will be unable to manage them at all.

He also listed the example of Pengcheng, Pei County, indicating that the time is wrong. If Yue is captured at this time, one will cause panic among the princes, and the other will not be so many Immortals to manage and enrich themselves.

In the end, the right opinion still prevailed and a consensus was reached temporarily.

That is, taking this battle as an opportunity, a "non-attack alliance" dominated by the Mohists was formed in the Sishui River Basin, composed of seven small countries including Teng, Ji, Ni, Xue, Fei, Tan and Pi.

The Mohist family dominated the Li, Tan Fuguo, and dominated the politics of other small countries, completely squeezed Yueguo out of the Sishui River Basin, and formed a covenant organization in Pengcheng that was nominally only for self-protection. In fact, under the existing rules, the strength of the Mohist family was maximized.

To achieve this plan, Peixian, Pengcheng, Tengguo and others controlled by the Mohist family must prepare for a long-term battle for a year.

The ongoing water conservancy projects were stopped, and the entire control area was fully transferred to wartime preparations.

All the charity divisions who returned home after serving for three years were all returned to the team and reorganized a field force with a number of about 25,000 people, and a certain amount of military farmers to do logistics.

This field force requires Pei County to organize 13,000 people, Pengcheng to organize 8,000 people, Teng Country 2,500 people, and half of the Mo family controlled by the Mo family, and the troops exclusively belonging to the Mo family must also dispatch 1,500 people.
