Red Chamber: Bring Xue Baochai home at the beginning

Chapter 393 On par with each other, the land is publicly owned

"Brother Bao, you don't have to worry about this matter. I have already given them a choice. Those who are willing to stay, the Feng Mansion will naturally not treat them badly. Those who are willing to go home have already been given a lot of money and sent to the official ship to return to Jiangnan. went to the family."

Feng Yibo saw that he kept playing this matter sloppy, so he simply talked about it.

Hearing that he finally responded positively and finally stopped talking about those reasons, Baoyu couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

But just as he smiled, he wanted to thank him, but Feng Yibo smiled again and said:
"It's just interesting to say, you won't care if the teachers and musicians want to come, and among the twelve actors, only Baoguan and Yuguan chose to go home, and the others chose to stay. It seems that the two officials Baoyu Brother Baoyu doesn't trust me like this."

Baoyu heard that there was something in his words, but she just smiled and said:
"It must be that they have relatives at home!"

He came here just to see off Tanchun and take care of those actors by the way.

If he had known that Feng Yibo would be like this when he came over, he would never have cared about it.

Unfortunately, it's too late for him to regret it now.

"I think that the choice of the second official, Baoyu, is not bad. In other words, once they have the power to choose, they don't want to pin their hopes on others."

There was something in Feng Yibo's words, and Baoyu had already guessed what he was going to say.

But for Baoyu, this kind of reasoning is like a maggot on a tarsal bone. He is already tired of it, but it is not easy to turn his face.

He had already made up his mind that if he could not see Feng Yibo in the future, he would definitely disappear.

"After all, when I said that I would not treat them badly in the future, it was an illusory promise. The initiative is completely on me, and I might forget it later."

Seeing Feng Yibo circling around and finally circling himself, Baoyu couldn't bear it any longer, and said with a trace of impatience:
"Forget it, forget it, Brother Feng, I just mentioned it casually, now knowing that you have already made arrangements is enough."

Feng Yibo could hear his impatience, but he still didn't intend to end it, and said:
"Even if Brother Bao didn't entrust me to take care of you today, I would still arrange it this way, but if I didn't make any arrangements in advance, and just promised to give you this face, and then I left it behind, wouldn't all your heart be wasted? ?”

"I believe Brother Feng will do what he says, besides..."

Baoyu responded perfunctorily, paused, put away his impatience, and said earnestly:

"I'm just asking for a clear conscience."

This is what he has in mind.

The beauty of these actors made him feel a little concerned, but it was not to the extent that he took action for it.

You're here, so you can feel at ease just by asking.

"It's a good one who has no shame in his heart, which shows that Brother Bao has a pure and kind heart."

See Feng Yibo nodded in agreement.

But just when Baoyu thought it was finally over, he smiled and asked:

"It's just that I will do what I promised you, but when you face other difficulties, don't you feel ashamed just by asking?"

At this point, Baoyu really wanted to leave.

With his intelligence, he naturally understood that Feng Yibo was telling him:

Ask others not yourself.

But this kind of principle is exactly what Baoyu is most impatient with.

He really didn't understand why Feng Yibo picked the things he didn't like to hear.

"Brother Bao, you should know that the Empress Dowager has always placed high hopes on you, and I also told you a lot for the Empress Dowager's sake."

When Yuanchun was mentioned, Baoyu was slightly surprised.

This elder sister has been in the palace for many years, and the memory in his heart has long been blurred.

If it weren't for Jia's mother occasionally mentioning the past, talking about how she taught herself back then.

In addition to visiting relatives before, she treated herself very differently.

Baoyu has even forgotten her existence.

Today, this elder sister is the queen mother.

This is a great thing for Rongfu and him.

As a result, he became the uncle of the country and was highly sought after everywhere.

As for such pursuit, although Baoyu never mentioned it, he was very fond of it in his heart.

Hearing Feng Yibo mention the Empress Dowager at this time, he finally suppressed his impatience and wanted to hear what the other party had to say.

"I know that with your ingenuity, you already know what you mean, but obviously you don't agree. So, I have a few last words for you."

When Baoyu heard the words, he had no choice but to listen respectfully, and immediately bowed and said:

"Brother Feng please enlighten me."

Seeing that his attitude had improved, Feng Yibo nodded slightly, and said:
"Mencius said: Wealth and honor cannot be promiscuous, poverty and lowliness cannot be moved, and power cannot be subdued. This is what is called a real man."

He quoted the words of the sage at the beginning of the article, which immediately dissipated half of Baoyu's curiosity.

"There are still many people who think that a real man is a man with ambition, integrity, and achievements, born between heaven and earth, who helps the world and the people, and is loyal to the emperor and serves the country."

After a long time, is it still these big principles?

When Baoyu heard this, the remaining half of his curiosity was exhausted.

At this time, Feng Yibo paused slightly, then changed the subject:

"But I think that as long as a man can shoulder the responsibilities that he should shoulder, he is an indomitable man!"

responsibility……

When Baoyu heard this word, he resisted from the heart.

But he didn't want to listen to the other party's nagging anymore, so he quickly squeezed out a smile and said flatteringly:

"Brother Feng is well-read and knowledgeable, and I have been taught today."

"you need to know……"

Feng Yibo still wanted to continue, but he saw Xiuju appearing at the door.

Seeing that he was talking, he didn't come in to disturb him.

Feng Yibo waved at her, and Xiuju came over to salute:
"Master, my aunt is here to invite you."

When Baoyu heard this, his eyes lit up and he said hurriedly:

"Brother Feng, go quickly. The third younger sister came here today to ask you about overseas affairs. I just sent her here and mentioned something else by the way."

Seeing that he was in a hurry to let him go, Feng Yibo couldn't help but smiled and shook his head:
"It can be seen that Brother Bao doesn't like to hear this."

Baoyu smiled embarrassingly, which was a tacit consent.

Unexpectedly, Feng Yibo smiled, but continued:
"So, this is the last time I will tell you this. After all, the burden of the Rong Mansion falls on Erfang. In the future, His Majesty will be in charge of the government. There may be a divine grace."

In the future, Emperor Xuanzhi will rule in person, and Jia Zheng's title will be hereditary.

In order to appease his family, Yuan Chun had already revealed a little bit to Mrs. Wang.

But Baoyu didn't know this, nor did he understand what he meant.

Feng Yibo shook his head, and said again:
"It's a bit far-fetched, but I'm telling you this because I want the Queen Mother to focus on Her Majesty instead of being distracted by her mother's family, and I don't ask you to take on the family business immediately. When you go back, think about it more in your heart."

After finishing speaking, Feng Yibo sighed, took the embroidered orange and left, and went to the back house.

"Appreciate~"

Baoyu let out a long sigh of relief, slumped on the chair, picked up the wine glass and poured himself a drink.

"Brother Bao, I'll drink with you!"

Xue Pan smiled gloatingly, and persuaded:
"You have to know that Brother Feng is a person who does great things. For people like us, it is indeed a bit harsh. Although it is for our own good, it is inevitable that we will think highly of us. If we can do it, we can still use it. Did he say?"

Having said that, he also became melancholy, filled a cup, and said:
"Oh! It's boring not to talk about it. Come! Let's drink!"

???

With question marks all over Baoyu's face, she touched him a little aggrieved.

When did I start...comparing myself with him?

He was not moved by Feng Yibo's words, but was severely hurt by Xue Pan's words.

Here, Baoyu began to think about what he had done, whether he was really classified as the same as this dumb bully.

On the other side, Feng Yibo has already arrived at Yingchun's room.

After the two sides greeted each other, he asked:
"I heard from brother Bao that the third younger sister is here to learn about overseas affairs?"

Last time, he had already said everything that Donghai County could say, and he didn't know what Tanchun would ask this time.

"Didn't Brother Feng give some Japanese girls to the Rong Mansion a while ago, and yesterday he gave two Gao Liji."

Hearing his question, Tanchun said a little shyly:
"After listening to their stories, I want to ask if it's really like that overseas..."

Hearing this, Feng Yibo didn't seem to be asking about Donghai County, so he smiled and said:
"What did they say?"

Now that the matter has come to this point, Tanchun said it directly.

"The Japanese woman said that the life of the Japanese king..."

"Gao Liji said that the court banquet of King Goryeo..."

After hearing Tanchun finish talking about the misery of the two royal families, Feng Yibo understood what she meant.

"They were right and wrong."

He was a little funny in his heart, but he still explained:

"Wawang had no power before, just a mascot-like existence. The real power was in the hands of the shogunate and daimyo below, so the Wawang was not worthy of the name, and it is reasonable to live a miserable life."

"And Donghai County was brought down by the king of Donghai County. In Donghai County, there is no difference. There is nothing comparable between the two. Most of the land and wealth in Donghai County are the private property of the Black Dragon Mansion. Not to mention rich, extravagant , it will not be as miserable as the King of Japan."

"Korea is mountainous and the land is very barren. It is also located in the northeast, and the winter is long. For the convenience of storage, it is naturally pickled into pickles. There is no way out of lack of supplies. It is good to be able to eat enough."

"Donghai County is located in the tropics, with warm and humid seasons. Naturally, there is no shortage of all kinds of fruits and vegetables. What's more, the King of Donghai County and his subordinates are all from the south of the Yangtze River, so you don't have to worry about not meeting your taste.

Hearing this, Tanchun finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing her like this, Yingchun couldn't help laughing beside her and said:

"Now you should feel relieved?"

When Tanchun heard this, his face blushed, and he said stiffly:
"What do I worry about? I just heard that I'm still in poverty in the royal family, and I'm a little worried that the people of Great Wei are not doing well overseas."

Tanchun had just talked about the two royal families, and Feng Yibo already understood what she meant.

So from the beginning to the end, she didn't mention Donghai County.

But now that I say it like this, I feel a little self-confident.

Yingchun couldn't help laughing and said:
"Yes, yes, you are worried about overseas immigration, and you are not asking about the Donghai County Prince's Mansion, hehehe!"

Tanchun immediately tugged in embarrassment, and said:
"Second sister!"

She shouted Yingchun on her lips, but she couldn't help looking at Feng Yibo with her eyes looking forward.

Seeing this, Feng Yibo smiled and helped her out:
"Whether in Dawei or Donghai County, there are people who live well and some who live badly. In contrast, in Donghai County, there are not many people who live well, and there are not many people who live badly. Most people don’t have to worry about food and clothing.”

These words aroused Tanchun's curiosity, and he couldn't help asking:
"Why is this?"

Feng Yibo smiled, and said with a hint of pride:
"Because the land in Donghai County belongs to the Heilong Mansion, it is impossible to buy land. We can only lease a fixed amount of land according to the restrictions of the Heilong Mansion. This prevents the aristocratic families from annexing the land, and because of this, most of the food flows into the Heilong Mansion. The mansion, run by the Black Dragon Mansion, can regulate prices to a certain extent to avoid hoarding by merchants.”

The land in Donghai County was brought down by the Black Dragon Mansion with real swords and guns, and it is nominally owned by the Black Dragon Mansion.

Whether it is farming or building a house, it needs approval from the Black Dragon Mansion.

Such an extreme land merger has achieved the public ownership of land that Feng Yibo wanted in a disguised form.

This is something he is proud of.

Speaking of this, he said with a smile:

"So, it's not easy for ordinary people to become rich in Donghai County, but as long as they work hard, they can live comfortably without worrying about food and clothing."

When Tanchun heard the words, he couldn't help being greatly surprised, pondered for a while, and asked innocently:
"So, if Great Wei also takes the land back to the imperial court..."

She is a woman in a boudoir, but she also understands the benefits of doing so.

The country's tax revenue is stable, and the people have no worries about food and clothing.

It is not an exaggeration to say that such a country is Datong.

But after all, she is just a boudoir woman, and she has no understanding of the operation of the court.

The Great Wei has a vast territory, different people's customs, and different amounts of land. The aristocratic families of all parties and the local wealthy families are intertwined.

How can it be solved by simply applying policies?

"It's definitely not going to work."

Feng Yibo shook his head with a smile, and explained:

"Donghai County established this rule at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and although Donghai County has a small territory, it has fewer people. With more land and less land, it is natural to divide it as you want.

The situation in the Wei Dynasty is much more complicated. There is no environment for implementing this policy. If we really want to do this, the landlords all over the world will join forces and do the opposite. The gain is not worth the loss. "

The bottom layer of Wei's power structure is the landlords and gentry.

Unless this power structure is completely broken, it will be impossible to realize public ownership of land.

Tanchun nodded disappointedly, and asked again:

"Is there no way?"

She didn't understand the affairs of the court, but she could tell that it was a good thing that benefited the country and the people.

If it can be realized, the life of the people will be much easier.

Obviously, this touched the interests of the landlords and squires.

"It's not impossible, it's just that the time is not yet ripe."

Feng Yibo smiled, and didn't continue talking.

Instead, he continued to chat with the second daughter about overseas affairs.

He just said that the time is not yet ripe.

However, in fact, he has already written the memorial, but he has not submitted it for a long time.

He had to carefully consider who should take the lead in this memorial.

Even if he is as powerful as him, he dare not raise it easily.

Now, he just needed someone to test the waters first.

And he is responsible for escorting behind, checking for gaps and making up for gaps.

The reason for being so cautious is because the core of this memorial is just four words.
