Chapter 35
"What about those wealthy households who have done nothing wrong? They have also rented out their land to tenants!" Someone asked.

Liu Ze patted his forehead. This is also a problem. After walking back and forth a few times, he confirmed: "For rich households and small landlords who are not guilty, then the land rent should not exceed [-]%. Half the interest, Wang Zhe!"

"Here!" The guard next to him, Wang Zhe, took two steps forward.

"Record the construction of peasant associations, land distribution arrangements, land rent, etc., as well as the future arrangements for rich households and small landlords who have not been charged with crimes, and all will be handled accordingly. Landlords, all the land they exceed will be confiscated, and if they resist, they will be treated as enemies." Liu Ze said softly.

Liu Ze knew that such a measure would completely turn the big landlords into a state of hostility towards his team. Many big landlords may be innocent, but the number of big landlords in this world is too small, and the interests they hold are too great. The interests of the majority of the poor and ordinary rich households and small landlords can only be sacrificed to them. This has nothing to do with right or wrong, only natural antagonism.

The simple wish of "land to the tiller" runs through the entire history of China. It was recorded that Mencius first put it forward, until the Tianmu system in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom period, and then it was fully realized after the founding of New China. It has gone through ups and downs, and it is extremely difficult.

Liu Ze knows that many people will be offended. This kind of forced land distribution reform will have many problems. Neither the rich landlords nor the poor can be fully satisfied.

Even Liu Ze can see all kinds of tragedies that will happen in the future. For example, the landlords and rich households who escaped from the area controlled by Liu Ze's team will cooperate with the Ming army to come back to take revenge. In the future, those people will even form a home-returning regiment Come and compete with Liu Ze for the control of the countryside, and break the foundation of Liu Ze's team.

But these are useless, and it will greatly increase Liu Ze's power. The reason is very simple, what will the first thing the Home Returning Corps do when they return to their hometown?
The first thing must be to take back the land and property that originally belonged to them, but these lands have been distributed to farmers, so what should we do?They will definitely take it back forcibly, not only to take back the previous ones, but also to get more.

You poor man took a donkey from my house back then, you should return at least one donkey, and then compensate me for mental damage, and the land allocated by your family, then all the previous land rent should be handed over to me, the longer it takes , the more land rent you have to pay.

In this case, there will only be one situation, that is, the poor can't afford it at all, so why don't they pay it back if they can't afford it?

How can it be!

These returning home groups have knives, and if they don't return them, they will have to use knives.

Who will use the knife is another problem, because basically everyone in the entire rural society will benefit from the previous land distribution and property distribution. Perhaps the only ones who have not fully benefited are a few rich households and small landlords. What would these poor people think if they robbed land, property, and food back there?
You may kill many, many people, but you won't and can't kill them all, right?Unless you go to farm by yourself.

This leads to a conclusion that Liu Ze may offend and dissatisfy many people in this reform of land distribution, property distribution and food distribution, but good and bad need to be compared. After coming back to teach the poor people a lesson, the poor people who account for more than 90.00% of the population will know who to help.

The more people the Home Returning Corps and the Ming Army came to grab and kill, the more people would support Liu Ze's team in the future. This is a simple logical reasoning.

What's more, the land distribution movement led by Liu Ze and the establishment of peasant associations will completely change the political power structure in rural areas for thousands of years, allowing these poor people who were oppressed before to obtain the most basic means of production, land, This will completely change the personal shackles of the patriarchal system in feudal society, and let the poor who own the vast majority of resources support Liu Ze, which will greatly liberate productivity and lay the most solid foundation for Liu Ze's final victory.

Of course, Liu Ze would not tell these poor people about these theories. Liu Ze can only use this method to transform this hard-to-return world at the end of the Ming Dynasty, otherwise the numb people at the bottom may be more willing to continue living the thousands of years they are used to. In his life, he will never sincerely support Liu Ze and his ideals. The final result will be that Liu Ze will be pulled into the rules of feudal society and abused by those who are steeped in rules.

This is Liu Ze's only chance to win, jump out and crush!So now is Liu Ze's busiest time, and he selected some smart young people in their 20s from the team and villagers, who have been by Liu Ze's side no matter whether it is reading and writing or fighting in field reform.These people, as Liu Ze's assistants and students, accept Liu Ze's personal teaching, and they will serve as the kindling to help Liu Ze ignite this weed-filled field.

"Brother Li, do you think Mr. Liu can stand up?" On the way home, Li Shitou asked the new president of the peasant association.

Li Dashan didn't know what to do, so he could only slow down and ask, "Why don't you stay long?"

"No, I'm just thinking about it." Li Shitou didn't want to take responsibility for saying something wrong.

"Whether you can stay or not, the grandfather's branch is finished anyway. Our village is all surnamed Li, and we can't write two characters of Li in one stroke. The person surnamed Liu is a foreigner after all, and we can't stay long. It won't be our surname Li in the future. It's up to you." Li Dashan thought clearly.

"That's true. I don't think Mr. Liu is like an ordinary pole. He is like a scholar. He even helped us divide the land and burned all the IOUs. He is a good man!"

"A good man is a good man. I always feel uneasy." Li Dashan stopped and said hesitantly while standing on the path.

Li Shitou leaned closer and whispered, "That's right, there are still a few youngsters of the grandfather who are not allowed to be killed. They may be a disaster in the future!"

When Li Dashan thought of those little bastards, he didn't get angry at all. Although the head of Liu Dashan did everything for the poor and even distributed food and avenge the family, he was still too soft-hearted after all. I'm afraid that it will become difficult.

"Don't go home, hurry up and find your acquaintances, first do what Liu's family ordered, we just need to hug the group, what are we afraid of? No matter whether Liu's family can stand or not, we are not afraid. But what he said is quite reasonable, like a person who is really in charge of our poor people. From now on, we will listen to him first and help if we can! As for those little brats, we will pay close attention to them in the future, don’t The imperial court is calling, report to the officials to harm us."

"Medium! I'm going to drop by now and draw all the poor guys into the peasant association."

(I feel that the writing is still eye-catching, ask for monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, rewards, etc.)
