"Abba, my son and others discussed with Master Qi, Da Lao Hui, Military Advisor Zhuge, Military Advisor Yang, Military Advisor Chen, Master Guo, Xuexue Qu, and Grand Administrator Chen, and decided to divide the land in Guangdong into two parts, one part being the clan common land;

The other part is official and private land..."

In Prince Ding's Mansion in Guangzhou City, Zhu Heji was talking about the progress of the Ten Thousand Tribes Conference with Zhu, the Heavenly King who was sitting there and was a little bored.

There are two core issues at the Ten Thousand Nationalities Conference, one is the land issue; the other is the issue of further education.

After these two core issues were solved, Zhu Heji was almost in control of the ten prefectures and one prefecture in Guangdong Province, with three million residents.

What Zhu Hejizheng and Zhu Tianwang are talking about now is the land issue, which is the most troublesome among the two core issues.

"The clan common land is mainly farmland that can be cultivated. It accounts for about 80% of the cultivated land in the province. This is non-transferable land... All the land must be divided among the clans! How much can each clan get?

Where should the fields be divided? How to deal with water sources? Everything must be clearly understood. After the division is completed, the land of each ethnic group must be enclosed with ridges. The workload here is huge! My son plans to do it in batches.

It will be done in Guangfu and Chaozhou Prefecture first. After these two places are completed, the capable officials from Guangfu and Chaozhou will be transferred to other eight prefectures and one state."

This is the distribution of tens of millions of acres of land, involving more than two million people!

Once done, it will be great! You will know exactly how much farmland and population there are in the province!

Moreover, land has been redistributed based on population, property rights are clear, and responsibilities are also very clear. It is clear who should pay taxes and send troops, and the burdens are relatively even.

"Official and private land is transferable land, including 20% ​​of the province's cultivable land, as well as cities, towns, ports and official roads and some land on both sides. There are also mountains, forests, mines, tidal flats, etc. in the province

Such as land that cannot be easily cultivated. These lands are either government-owned or privately owned. Some government-owned mountains and forests can be used for people to collect wood for free, and some annexed land or white land in cities and towns can be used for industrial and commercial development...

..Everything must be planned and reserved by the government. It cannot all be sold to private individuals, let alone belong to the clan.

In addition, there are still some people in Guangdong who have no clans to rely on, so they must be concentrated on official and private property."

If clan property is a "lower limit" that can protect most people's right to survival, then these official and private land properties are everyone's right to development!

These properties are mainly industrial and commercial land or are reserved for industry and commerce - clan property cannot be divided privately, so some talented people in the clan who want to make a fortune must have somewhere to show off!

What Zhu Heji reserved for them was industry and commerce and studying to become officials.

In order to avoid "difficulties in demolition", Zhu Heji also circled some geomantic treasures suitable for the development of metropolitan areas in advance... This is of course also Tuo Aobai, which is a great blessing! The two of them made Guangdong suitable for development.

The coastal treasures for developing big cities have been emptied out.

Hong Kong and Shenzhen in the future are not even populated now!

The city of Guangzhou was deserted, and all the clans outside Guangzhou were slaughtered. Large tracts of land became the private property of the banner land and the "Shangxuan" dog officials. Now they all bear the surname Zhu and are all owned by the people.

All public and private property can be used to develop industry and commerce in the future.

"Sai Zai, how long do you have to do these things?" King Zhu frowned a little when he heard his son talking about "internal affairs" incessantly, "Ten prefectures and one state, tens of millions of acres of land, two to three million people

...It would be impossible to straighten things out without taking a year and a half!”

In fact, it will be great if it can be straightened out in a year and a half!

That is to say, there are now fewer people and more land, and all the big evil people have surrendered to Shang Kexi. If Ao Bai and the others have done it, Zhu Heji does not need to deprive anyone of their land. What he is doing now is basically dividing the land among the various clans.

, just register carefully.

Of course, before Zhu Heji and others occupied Guangdong, although there were fewer people and more land in Guangdong, it did not mean that there was no tenant system or serfdom!

It's just that when there are fewer people and more land, you can't become a real landlord just by owning land. Because you can't rent at all!

Under the current circumstances, if you want to be a big landowner, you must be able to control the peasants and turn them into serfs!

Therefore, those who can become big landowners here in Guangdong are basically either warlords or bureaucrats. Now they have either run away or been eliminated.

Therefore, the land in Guangdong is now dominated by clans.

"Abba," Zhu Heji looked at King Zhu who was a little anxious and said with a smile, "You also brought up the issue of equalizing land... You said that there are fewer people in the world and more land, so it is just right to equalize land.

If Tian Jun is on his side, it will not be easy to annex it again in the future. If we revive the Ming Dynasty again, it can last longer."

The significance of equalizing land when there are fewer people and more land is not to equalize the land, but to suppress future mergers.

Because after the land is equalized, the property rights become communally owned by the clan, and transfer is prohibited!

If Zhu Heji could make 80% of the country's land communally owned by clans and prohibit transfers, it would be very difficult for anyone who wants to annex it in the future.

In Zhu Heji's memory, until the land reform in his hometown of Chaozhou, a large amount of land was still held by clans. Many of these clans began to develop in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and they could still keep their land for hundreds of years.

It can be seen that the clan's ability to resist annexation is very strong.

"Sai Zai, now the three families are fighting for the throne together!" King Zhu Tian became a little anxious when he saw his son looking calm and composed, "This old guy Wu Sangui calls himself the president, and it's clear that he doesn't want us to be the master!

Geng Jingzhong's second- and fifth-year-old son has no good intentions either. He is probably plotting to seize Nanjing, and he seems to want to be the emperor himself. If we are even a moment too late in seizing Nanjing, we will be suffocated to death in Guangdong in the future!"

"It's so boring," Zhu Heji waved his hand, "Abba, I plan to train a group of officers while equalizing land, and then reorganize our six factories including the southeast, northwest, and interior ships, as well as those in Foshan.

I have to make time to go there too.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! I am not familiar with iron and steel making, but I still know a little about coking, slag removal and firing refractory bricks. Recently, the small iron factory on Huangpu Island has

A batch of usable alumina bricks have been produced and are being tested..."

With limited technical means these days, it is difficult to analyze the composition of steel and it is impossible to understand the metallographic structure.

But Zhu Heji still knew how to make coke and remove slag - that is, to remove impurities in iron ore, mainly sulfur and phosphorus.

Zhu Heji had people build a small iron factory next to the shipyard on Huangpu Island. These days they are trying to make coke and burn bauxite bricks - Zhangzhou, which was just recovered by Zheng Jing, is a treasure land for manufacturing ceramics and jade along the coast. Zhu Heji

I remember that bauxite is also produced there, which is an important raw material for making refractory bricks.

If the major problems of coke, bauxite bricks, alkaline furnaces and slag removers can be solved, Foshan's iron smelting industry will advance rapidly.

In addition, Zhu Heji also knows the secret of "bone china", which can be used to enhance the competitiveness of the ceramic industries in Guangdong and Fujian... So he is really busy now, and he has no time to go to the Northern Expedition to grab territory.

.

...

"Commander Xue, do you know what Zhu Heji is busy with now? It seems to be April of the 46th year of Chongzhen's reign, why is he still squinting in Guangdong?"

In the presidential palace in Changsha, Wu Sangui was watching the military reports sent by his son Wu Yingqi from Yuezhou and his son-in-law Xia Guoxiang from Songzi, and at the same time asked about Zhu Heji's movements.

"If I get back to the president, Zhu Heji is busy making revolution and has no time for the Northern Expedition."

Xue Zhang did well with Wu Sangui and became an important staff member of the president. He was also called "Xue Military Advisor" by Wu Sangui, and he looked like he would be of great use.

The tasks Wu Sangui assigned to Xue Zhang were, first, to collect information from Guangdong; second, to contact Liu Jinzhong of Ganzhou Prefecture.

"Revolution?" Wu Sangui was stunned, "What kind of revolution?"

"The fate of revolutionizing Confucianism! The fate of revolutionizing industry! The fate of revolutionizing the military strategy..." Xue Zhang said with a bitter smile, "There is no time to revolutionize the fate of the Qing Dynasty!"

Wu Sangui laughed loudly after hearing this, "Okay, he is very busy, I am not in a hurry! It is still too cold now, not a good time to use troops... I have been in the south for a long time, and I am afraid of the cold."
