In the meeting hall of the Masayoshi Mansion on the Noitaka Mountain, the meeting hall was in an awkward atmosphere of silence due to the order of the lord to "kidnap" refugees.

Masara glanced at the remaining ministers below, and Togo Heiji still wanted to stop talking; Osaki Kyoto was thinking; Tsuda Hirozo had an expression of no objection. In his consciousness, as long as it did not harm the refugees and could bring stability to the refugees, and it would be so troublesome to lure such a plan, just pull them to the territory; as for Yukisuke and Tadjiro, they looked as if they were taken for granted, after all, they often did this before.

"Well, let's decide this way. Kuroji and Yukisuke, you are responsible for spreading false territory and recruiting refugees, while Heiji is responsible for settling refugees. All refugees are arranged to go to the side of the wasteland that is being reclaimed in the southwest of Notaka Town." Masarae made the final decision, and then continued, "What is the agricultural tax for the nearby powerful people now?"

"Your Highness, the nearby tyrants all adopted the agricultural tax of Hachigong and two farmers. If there is a war, it will even be a nine-month-month-one farmers." Osaki Kyuji said in extreme indignation. The people next to him were also full of anger, and only Heiji Togo lowered his head awkwardly. He used to be the head of the Donggo family, and he also adopted the agricultural tax on the towns of his territory.

"What?" Zhengliang was shocked. In such an era of extremely backward agricultural technology, isn't such a tax policy equivalent to starving farmers to death? If you don't want to starve to death, you can only go up the mountains and down the sea to find food everywhere. No wonder there are pirates everywhere.

"Yes, Your Highness, basically all the powerful men in Matsuura County use this kind of agricultural tax. If the agricultural tax that is better for farmers is adopted, it is easy to attract hostility to the nearby powerful men. Of course, if you have enough strength, you don't have to be afraid of the threat of the nearby powerful men. You can also use a lower agricultural tax," Heiji Togo whispered.

"Well" Zhengliang was silently calculating in his heart, and at the same time, considering whether it was necessary to adjust the policies he had drafted overnight last night according to the actual situation. After frowning and thinking for a while, Zhengliang continued, "From next month, the current collective ration regulations for the territory will be abolished. All the entourage residents in the territory will be distributed at one time according to the standards of adults' 5 buckets of miscellaneous grain per month and children's 3 buckets of miscellaneous grain per month, so that they can persist until the end of the autumn harvest in September, and then they can reliably reliance on their own. Starting next month, the entourage residents will freely manage their existing fields. The territory will no longer provide food funding and cannot manage the fields alone. Matsumiko will arrange them uniformly, and the fields will be included in the public fields of the territory. After the autumn harvest, the grain will be distributed according to the labor contribution. For the time being, you arrange it."

"Your Highness, according to your arrangement, you will need about 600 stones of food this time. With yesterday's arrangement, the territory currently needs to consume more than 2,000 stones of food." Dongxiang Heiji felt that this lord had started to make a "spending" problem again. The territory had just had some food reserves, and according to the lord's squandering speed, it would be consumed quickly, so he had to speak to remind Masayoshi.

Zhengliang smiled slightly and said, "Pingshi, you have less calculations, it is more than 4,000 stones, and there is 2,000 stones of territory and military expansion budget. In addition, the territory will carry out large-scale water conservancy, road construction and corvee will also consume a lot of food."

"Ah?" Heiji Donggo almost jumped up. According to his thoughts, the lord guarded the food seized this time, and at least he could make the territory safely survive this winter. However, he found that he had far underestimated the lord's "explosive" speed. He was stunned for a moment and could not speak for a long time. Everyone was also shocked by Masayoro's plan and looked at the lord one after another.

"Haha, everyone, as the population of the territory continues to increase, the original territory laws are no longer suitable for the needs of the territory's further development." Masayoshi Masayoshi cannot talk to these people about how to stimulate production enthusiasm and the theory of "money makes money" hundreds of years later, so I'd just briefly analyze it and forcefully implement his orders based on the idea of ​​understanding and executing it even if you don't understand it. "This is some territory laws I drafted last night, so everyone can pass it on." After that, Masayoshi waved to Kissamro, who had been standing behind him and holding several sheets of paper.

Kissanro immediately delivered the paper to Masaru. Masaru picked up the sheets and used a brush to slightly modify the contents on it one by one, and then Kissanro delivered it to everyone below.

These laws on paper were formulated overnight by Masara last night based on the current actual situation of the territory, collectively known as the Roche law. As far as Masara knows, the family was not the first person to formulate special laws of this era. Before himself, in Kyushu, there were the "Sarara Laws" of the Saire family and the "Ouire Family Book of the Aire family" of the Aire family; a little farther away were the Asakura family's "Asakura Takaketsu", the Imakawa family's "Imakawa Name Catalog" and the most famous "Dunake Collection" of the Imakawa family.

The beginning of the "Rochester Law" first clarifies that the law will be the only law for all the territory of the Rochester family. The first chapter of the legal text is a decree about land, which mainly contains three contents:

1. All land, trees and rivers in the territory belong to the lord, and the lord rents the land to the lord for use. Each lord must register the land in detail and pay taxes regularly. The land can be inherited by relatives, and if no one inherits it, it will be owned by the lord.

2. The land is not allowed to be traded and exchanged without the approval of the lord.

3. Each household is allowed to have only five land (1 = 10 acres) and two forest land.

Since the territory is currently all refugees, filthy people, or farmers who have a small amount of land, and no one owns more than the land limit, there will be no resistance to implementing it. However, as the territory expands in the future, some obstacles will inevitably be encountered. Zhengliang is not worried about this, because those who can exceed these restrictions are originally some local tyrants. If they want to obtain their land, they must defeat them. As the defeated party, they can only be at the mercy of Zhengliang. Of course, the main purpose of implementing this order is to avoid new local tyrants in their territory in the future. For their retainers, Zhengliang is prepared to adopt a salary system and try to avoid rewarding land.

The second article of the legal text is a regulation on the responsibilities of obtaining civilian status and agricultural taxes, which mainly have two main contents:

1. Territory has three main identities: entrusting people, labor and slaves.

First-level people are in charge, and the agricultural tax is eight public officials and two farmers;

The second-level entrusted the people, and the agricultural tax is seven public and three rural areas;

The third-level people are in charge, and the agricultural tax is six public and four rural areas;

The fourth-level people are in charge of the people, and the agricultural tax is five public officials and five farmers;

The five-level people are in charge of the people, and the agricultural tax is four public and six citizens.

Labor service: If the entourage of the original territory violates the territorial laws, they will be demoted to labor service. The long-term labor service for a certain year shall be implemented according to the degree of violation. There will be no remuneration during the period of labor service. After the expiration of the labor service period, the original authority may be restored.

Slave: The enemy captured personnel shall perform a certain year of long-term corvee service according to the degree of harm to the territory, and there shall be no remuneration during the corvee service. After the period of corvee service expires, they may become a first-level entrusted citizen.

2. Statement for improving the status of the people:

First-level governor: From the date of settlement of the territory, the first-level governor is the first-level governor.

Second-level governors: After a first-level governors settle in their territory for one year, they will automatically be converted to second-level governors;

If a first-level hierarchy tribe settles in the territory, sends his relatives over six years old and under 14 years old to the territory school within one year, and ensures that the school children participate in the school organization on time, they will automatically be converted to a second-level hierarchy tribe.

Level 3 Leader: After the territory has settled in the territory for three years, it will automatically be converted to Level 3 Leader;

At the same time, regardless of the length of settlement, all the people in each household will automatically become the third-level people as long as someone becomes the lord's attention; and if you make contributions to the territory, the lord can also personally grant the third-level people to the lord.

Level 4 Leader: All Leader, as long as someone in each household becomes the lord's warrior, they will automatically be converted to Level 4 Leader.

At the same time, if you make significant contributions to the territory, the lord can personally grant the fourth-level governor to the lord.

Level 5 governors: If you make a significant contribution to the territory, the lord can personally grant the Level 5 governors.

Originally, Zhengliang formulated the lowest level of agricultural tax for the people who were 7 public officials and rural areas. After listening to the opinions of Dongxiang Heiji, it was revised after full consideration. According to the law, an ordinary citizen who settled in the territory was 8 public officials and two rural areas in the first year, seven public officials and three rural areas in the second year, and six public officials and four rural areas in the fourth year. At the same time, in order to encourage the people to actively participate in the school and military forces in the territory, some preferential regulations were added accordingly. Of course, agricultural taxes cannot make the people who are employed if the people are too easily obtained. If an ordinary citizen fights,

If you live simply, it is at most a tax of six dynasties and four rural areas. If you want to obtain five dynasties and five dynasties and even four dynasties and six rural areas, you must participate in the military force of the territory or make significant contributions. Finally, it is the issue of fairness. The above regulations cannot take care of families with children in their children in their childhood, even without children, and even without young and strong men. It can be said that these are the most vulnerable groups. How to protect these families? There are corresponding explanations in the next regulations.

The third article of the law is a statute on territorial corvee, which mainly contains five contents:

1. All rent taxes in the territory except agricultural tax and commercial tax will be abolished.

2. The people in charge participate in corvee service under the territorial organization. During the territorial period, the food is uniformly distributed by the territorial, and the territorial is given reasonable remuneration according to the amount of labor (mainly grain is the main one).

3. People with poor families can apply for relief at designated locations in the territory. After verification, the territory will be given monthly relief according to the minimum allocation, and the maximum relief time is one year.

4. If there is no farm tool, the person who is in charge of renting it at the designated location in the territory, and the maximum time for rent is seven days.

5. Relief and lease repayment methods:

Directly use food or coins to repay;

After autumn harvest every year, use grain or coins to repay;

After participating in the territorial organization of corvee, the territorial area will be deducted from the remuneration to be given.

Here, Zhengliang used the concept of "loans" in later generations to allow the entrusted people to apply for agricultural tools and even grain, and could be returned in the later stage. This greatly protected the vulnerable groups in the early stages of the settlement of the territory to survive; at the same time, encouraged the entrusted people to actively participate in corvee service.

The fourth chapter of the legal text is a decree about territory confidentiality, with five main contents:

1. The lords shall not leave their territory without permission without the approval of the lord;

2. The foster citizen shall not be allowed to mention any information related to the territory, such as laws and technologies, to anyone;

3. Once a suspicious or stranger is found, it must be reported to the territory in a timely manner. After verification, if the person has not reached the third level of the people, it will be directly promoted to the third level of the people; if the person has reached the third level of the people, it will be given a 5-stone grain reward.

4. If a person reports a violation of the confidentiality regulations, after verification, if he fails to reach the third level of the people, he will be directly promoted to the third level of the people; if he has reached the third level of the people, he will be given a 5-stone grain reward.

Many of the policies and technologies implemented by Zhengliang in the territory now surpass this era. Once acquired by the enemy forces, it will not only strengthen the other party's strength, but also greatly threaten itself. When it is not strong enough, these things must be strictly confidential. However, it is difficult to keep confidential by relying solely on the protection of the territory, so it is only possible to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the people to lead the people, and the whole people will become the monitors of confidentiality.

The fifth chapter of the legal text is a decree about civil weapons in the territory, with five main contents:

1. Without the permission of the lord, you shall not possess swords, spears, feet, bows and arrows as stipulated in the territory without the permission of the lord;

2. Those who already possess weapons must hand over to the territory, and the territory will provide corresponding compensation for food and currency;

3. Any private storage is immediately confiscated once discovered, and the private storage is subject to certain labor.

In fact, this is the "Knife Hunting Order". Although the territory rules make farmers profit a lot, it is difficult to rule out that they will still be bewitched by some people, and then they will be a Ikki or even Ikki. This is enough for their own troubles. Therefore, in order to prevent this, it is better to implement this measure as soon as possible.

The last article of the legal text is the sixth article, mainly about the territorial rewards and punishments. There are only one territorial, but the content is very detailed. It mainly lists the content of daily civil crimes and clarifies the corresponding years of labor that need to be borne if these contents and the territorial laws are violated. A certain grain reward will be given to the whistleblower.

The entire "Roche Law" has a total of six articles and eighteen rules. For a long time, it has adapted to the needs of the territory. It did not violate the interests of most people in the territory, and even most people were beneficiaries. Zhengliang was prepared to adopt a high-pressure policy and enforce it for the territory occupied in the future. Of course, this would lead to some of the territories in private concealing the resistance of the farmers in the land and the original tyrants, especially for the tyrants who surrendered voluntarily. Zhengliang was prepared to repay the salary, or even directly eliminate it to solve the problem.

The laws generally confirm many requirements, allowing the leaders to quickly settle down and ensure the interests of most people. Of course, due to the over-generalization, there are still many loopholes. For example, the arrangements of specific policy implementers, specific reward and remuneration standards, etc. are not clearly stipulated, and there are even some situations where loopholes can be exploited, which will be continuously improved in the future.
