Chapter 882 Three Million Stone Overlord (1)

To become a well-off family, in addition to having a solid retainer structure, a firm and good ruling institutions and a rich talent reserve, it is also necessary to form a good social, agricultural, industrial and commercial foundation within the ruling system.
After more than ten years of firm development and the deliberate support of Masayoshi's deliberate resources, a certain social, agricultural, industrial and commercial foundation has been initially formed in the areas of the Luo family's Feiqian Kingdom, the Budou Kingdom, the Budou Kingdom, and Iki Island. As for other areas of the Luo family, they have gradually kept up with the development pace of these regions because they are gradually affected by the radiation of these regions, thus accelerating the integration of the Luo family's rule.
In terms of social foundation, as the unique "Roche Laws" of the Luo family gradually became popular and gradually integrated with the Luo family's ruling system, a relatively complete social management system was gradually formed in the Luo family territory.
The first chapter of "Roches Law" is to clarify that this law will be the only law for all the territory of the Roches. In fact, it is already the lowest foundation of the Roches rule system. The first article of the law is a decree about natural resources such as land, and it mainly contains three contents:
1. All land, trees, rivers and other resources in the territory belong to the Luo family. The Luo family rents land and other resources to the hierarchy. Each hierarchy must register the situation of land and other resources in detail and pay taxes regularly. Land and other resources can be inherited by relatives, and if no one inherits it, it will be accepted into the hierarchy.
2. Land and other resources are not allowed to be traded and exchanged without the approval of the Luo Family Home Office.
3. Before the approval of the Luo Family Home Office, each household is allowed to own only five land (1 = 10 acres), forest land, and mountain land.
4. After the people are divided into households, each household's territory can only be inherited by one son or one daughter in the family. Other sons or daughters will be allocated by the Luo family's internal affairs cabinet in other areas. (The main purpose is to avoid the family being too concentrated. It is also conducive to dispersing the forces of those families with large numbers in reality.)
These laws on natural resources such as land are actually equivalent to taking all natural resources into the hands of the Luo family. In this case, it is contrary to the social background of this era and will inevitably encounter obstacles in general. However, when the Luo family started, the Luo family's territory was basically refugees, dirty people, or farmers with a small amount of land, without any powerful power. Therefore, there was no resistance when it was implemented.
In the future, as the territory continued to expand, the Luo family adopted the method of extermination of the general hostile tyrants (male slashing, female family members scattered rewards or moved to settle down). Until the Luo family became a powerful famous family from a small family. At this time, the Luo family's strength was already strong enough to avoid this issue at all. The territories in the territory had adapted to the laws of the Luo family, and even in order to protect the fields in their hands, they would take the initiative to stand on the Luo family's side to deal with those hostile forces. Of course, the main purpose of implementing this order was to avoid new local tyrants in their territory in the future. For their own retainers, in order to avoid internal hidden dangers, Zhengliang also made appropriate arrangements and implemented a restricted feudal system for the retainers.
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. The people in the territory have three main identities: hiring the people, labor service, 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 officials and six farmers.
Labor service: If the original territorial entrusted people violate the territorial laws, they will be demoted to labor service. The long-term corvee service for a certain year shall be implemented according to the degree of violation. There will be no remuneration during the period of corvee service. After the expiration of the corvee service, the original entrusted people's identity 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 the governor's settlement, he will be the first-level governor.
Second-level citizens: After the first-level citizens settled in the territory for one year, they will automatically be converted to second-level citizens; within one year of the first-level citizens settled in the territory, they will send their relatives over six years old and under fourteen years old to the territory school, and ensure that the school children participate in the school organization on time, they will automatically be converted to second-level citizens.
Level 3 Leader: After the territory has settled for three years, it will automatically be converted to Level 3 Leader; at the same time, regardless of the settlement period and the original level of the leadership, all Leader, as long as someone in each household becomes a standing soldier of the Luo family, it will automatically be converted to Level 3 Leader. Moreover, if you make contributions to the territory, the Luo family can also personally grant the status of the third Leadership.
Level 4 Leader: After the territory has settled for ten years, it will automatically be converted to Level 4 Leader. As long as someone in each household becomes a warrior of the Luo family or a retainer of the Luo family institutions, it will automatically be converted to Level 4 Leader. At the same time, if a significant contribution to the territory is made, the Luo family can personally award the Level 4 Leader.
Level 5 Leader: After the territory has settled in the territory for twenty years, it will automatically become Level 5 Leader; if it makes significant contributions to the territory, the Luo family can personally award the Level 5 Leadership.
According to the law, an ordinary resident settled in the first year of the agricultural tax of eighth and two agriculture, the second year of sevenh and three agriculture, the fourth year of sixh and four agriculture, the eleventh year of five agriculture, and the twentieth year of four agriculture, the twentieth year of four agriculture, and the twentieth year of four agriculture. This agricultural tax system seems a bit harsh, but in fact, the agricultural tax of many wealthy families in many areas of the Warring States Period was all the agricultural tax of eighth and two agriculture (the Imakawa family implemented the agricultural tax of sixh and four agriculture, but it was praised by the entourage people as a kind lord), and there were even cases where the entourage people had no food to eat, so this step-by-step agricultural tax system was already very good. After all, the Luo family needed to develop and needed more resources, not to mention that these agricultural taxes were finally returned to the entourage people through various methods of labor-for-relief.
After so many years of development, the average agricultural tax of the people in the Feiqian Kingdom, Feihou Kingdom, Jihou Kingdom, Jihou Kingdom, and Jiqian Kingdom, which were first controlled by the Luo family, and the western regions of Iki Island, was already five ministers and five farmers. As for the Fengqian Kingdom, Fenghou Kingdom, and Jiqian Kingdom, which were controlled by the Luo family, a little later, the agricultural tax of the people in these areas was generally seven ministers, three rural areas, or six ministers and four rural areas. The ultimate goal of Zhengliang was to achieve the agricultural tax of all the people in the Luo family territory, which was five ministers and five rural areas.
In the above laws, in order to encourage the hierarchy and military forces to actively participate in the territorial schools and military forces, some preferential regulations have been added accordingly; as for the fairness of these laws, in fact, the above laws cannot take care of families whose children are young, even without children, and even without young men. It can be said that these are the most vulnerable groups, how to protect these families. There are corresponding explanations in the next laws.
The third article of the law is a statute on territorial corvee, which mainly contains five contents:
1. All taxes in the territory except agricultural tax and commercial tax will be abolished.
2. The hierarchy only participates in corvee service under the territorial organization. During the territorial service, the territorial service will be distributed uniformly by the territorial service, and the territorial service will be given reasonable remuneration according to the amount of labor (the remuneration is mainly based on grain and coins made by the Luo family).
3. People with poor family members can apply for relief at designated locations in the territory. After verification, the territory will be given monthly relief according to the minimum allocation, with a maximum relief time of one year, and can apply for it repeatedly.
4. If there is no farm tool, the person who is in charge of the territory can rent it at the designated location, and the maximum time 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 land shall be deducted from the remuneration to be given.
Here, Zhengliang used the concept of "loans" in later generations. He allowed the people to apply for agricultural tools, even grain and coins, and could be returned in the later stage. This greatly ensured that the vulnerable groups in the early stages of the settlement of the territory could survive. At the same time, the people were encouraged to actively participate in various corvee labor organized by the territory, so that the Luo family could use the method of labor-for-relief to increase the income of the people and accelerate the development of the territory.
The fourth chapter of the legal text is a decree about territory confidentiality, with five main contents:
1. The people who lead the people are not allowed to leave the territory without the approval of the Luo family;
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 Masayoshi in the territory now surpass this era. Once acquired by the enemy forces, it will not only strengthen the strength of the other party, but also greatly threaten itself. When it is not strong enough, these things must be strictly confidential. However, it is difficult to keep them 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. After this period of development, the areas of the Feiqian Kingdom, the Feiqian Kingdom, the western regions of the Chuan Kingdom, the Chuan Kingdom, the Chuan Kingdom, and the Iki Island have almost become places that are not leaky. As long as suspicious people enter these areas, they will be identified soon. As for other areas, under the encouragement of the Luo family's reward, they have also received a great response, and the guardian awareness of the people is getting stronger and stronger.
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 Luo family, you may not possess swords, spears, feet, bows and arrows as stipulated in the territory;
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. Those who know the information will be punished.
4. Without the permission of the Luo family, all craftsmen's houses in the territory must not be made of weapons. Otherwise, not only will the craftsmen's house be confiscated, but all personnel in the craftsmen's house be punished for inviting labor. Even other craftsmen's houses who have not participated in the construction of weapons will be punished for implicating punishment.
In fact, this is the "Knife Hunting Order". Although the territory laws have made farmers profit a lot, it is difficult to rule out that they will still be bewitched by some people, and then they will be deceived by Ikki or even Ikki. This is enough to make trouble for themselves. Therefore, in order to prevent things from happening, it is better to implement this measure as soon as possible. At the same time, in order to strengthen prevention efforts, a system of joint positions was adopted as the treatment of the slave team, which encouraged the leaders and citizens to supervise each other.
The seventh chapter of the main text of the law is mainly about the territorial rewards and punishments. There are only one territorial, but the content is very detailed. It mainly lists the contents 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. For the whistleblower, a certain level of reward for food or even the entrusted people is given.
The seventh chapter of the legal text mainly stipulates the specific responsibilities and rights of the various institutions of the Luo family and their corresponding specific positions. What punishment will be imposed after violations? At the same time, it also lists in detail the rewards that need to be given for various military contributions.
The entire "Roche Laws" have a total of six, seven chapters and thirty-eight rules. Simply put, with these rules, everyone can understand what can be done under the rule of the Luo family? What can not be done? What can be obtained and what ways can be obtained? In general, through these rules, a society with legal constraints, clear class distinction, effective pension and assistance, and labor-for-relief system was gradually established within the territory of the Luo family. In this way, a new country's basic social system was formed.
Some people may think that such laws obviously lack fairness, but after all, this was the background of the entire Warring States Period at this time. It is ridiculous to blindly pay attention to the so-called equality of everyone, and it may even be overthrown and annihilated in the wave of history. Since this is a hierarchical society, as a ruler, you must adapt to this era background and create a class that supports your own ruling and development. What's more, such a social system will also encourage the leaders to actively and proactively move forward, thereby promoting the accelerated development of the territory.
Of course, in fact, the system of the Luo family at this time was not exactly the same as that of the general Daming system in the entire Warring States Period. The most fundamental difference is that the Luo family did not allow the country to appear in its ruling system, while other Daming tyrants were ruled by strong or weak country (or alliance). This led to the expansion of the Luo family and they would inevitably conflict with the interests of these Daming tyrants. But Zhengliang was already prepared for this, and he would directly use violence to completely destroy these obstacles, and then establish a system again according to the laws of the Luo family.
However, this is the case for the famous tycoons with direct conflicts of interest, but it is not the case for ordinary people. But people are very strange. When a new culture and system enter their lives, they will involuntarily resist. When they find that others are accepting this new thing, their lives are getting better and better, so they take the initiative to accept it.
When the Luo family started, due to no resistance, the laws of the Luo family naturally began to be promoted in the territory of the Luo family. With the development of more than ten years, the areas of Feiqian Kingdom, Feihou Kingdom, Chuhou Kingdom, Chuhou Kingdom, and Chuqi Island have become the areas where the Luo family rules are implemented most deeply, and the people in these areas naturally gained the most benefits.
Therefore, under such circumstances, with the demonstration of these regions, Fengqian Kingdom, Fengqian Kingdom and the western regions of the Chuqian Kingdom were already affected at this time. When the leaders of these regions saw that the leaders of such regions such as Feiqian Kingdom had gained so many benefits and their lives were getting better and better, they had also begun to actively accept the laws of the Luo family, and even actively support these laws that could bring them benefits. Similarly, with the demonstration of these people in the Kyushu area, the same changes will occur in the areas such as the Nagato Kingdom, Zhou Fangguo, Anyiguo, etc. that have just become the territory of the Luo family.
With such a social system as the basis, agriculture, industry and commerce under this system have developed greatly.
In terms of agriculture, in the areas of Feiqian Kingdom, Zhuhou Kingdom and Feihou Kingdom, which first became the territory of the Luo family, after more than ten years of continuous reclaiming, most of the local reclaimable fields have been reclaimed. The local water conservancy facilities have been relatively complete, especially the famous Zhengliang Canals have been spread over the local fields. Similarly, those Zhengliang water trucks are also spread across the banks of the local rivers. Under such a farming system, even if there is a disaster weather caused by floods or droughts, the local agricultural income is basically stable. The plowing oxen has reached the level of an average of five households having one plowing oxen.
At the same time, since the fields in these areas have been reclaimed, local leaders began to build farming methods such as mulberry fish ponds and cotton forests under the demonstration of a large number of slave farms set up by the Luo Family Interior Pavilion. A large number of fish ponds, mulberry trees, sugar, cotton, hemp and other crops appeared between local fields and forests, realizing the effective utilization of the land.
Moreover, with the promotion over the past decade, the political melon (also named Shen melon, which is actually sweet potato) has become one of the four major grains in the territory known as rice, wheat, mixed grains (such as soybeans, corn, and millet). At the same time, advanced farming methods such as fire ash-based fertilizer, manure-based fertilizer, standardized farming in the field, and tandem farming have been completely accepted by the leaders. In particular, the farming methods of tandem farming have completely changed the current situation of the Luo family's agricultural farming and set a precedent for farming in the Warring States Period.
In fact, other areas of the Warring States Period, even the Nagamon Kingdom, Zhou Fangguo, and other areas that were just occupied by the Luo family, adopted a method of farming. That is, spring plowing and harvesting in autumn. It is completely unknown whether you can use mixed crop planting to achieve a farming method that has income in summer and autumn.
With the development of agriculture and the basic life of the leaders was guaranteed, they began to pursue a higher quality of life, so they raised chickens, fishing grounds, farmers' trading markets, and farm tools and craftsmen's houses appeared in some areas. Later, under the strong encouragement of the Inner Government Pavilion, the leaders began to breed goats introduced from the Ming Dynasty in their homes. At the same time, they increased their supply of their own oxen, hoping that they could give birth to more calves. Thus, they sold these growing goats and calves to the Inner Government Pavilion.
In order to guide the leaders to raise more meat and livestock, the Inner Government also deliberately added breeding industries to slave farms such as cattle breeding farms, goat breeding farms, chicken farms (these chicken species were raised by the pheasants captured by Zhengliang for several generations and then converted into domestic chickens). On the one hand, it is used to provide meat supply to the Luo family army, and on the other hand, it is used to demonstrate to the leaders, provide seed sources and breeding methods for the leaders, so as to achieve the purpose of transferring these breeding work to the territory and territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territorial territ
The formation of a good agricultural farming system, animal husbandry, fishery, and agricultural trading system has formed an agricultural system that has entered a virtuous cycle. Of course, such an agricultural system is only formed in the areas of Feiqian Kingdom, Zhuhouguo, Feihouguo. As for the areas of Chuqian Kingdom, Fengqian Kingdom and Fenghouguo that were later controlled by the Luo family, it has just started, while the Nagato country, Zhou Fangguo and other places are backward areas and it takes a long time of transformation to start.
Agriculture has developed greatly, and industry has naturally developed. Of course, what we refer to here is handicraft industry.
In terms of workshops, there is only one papermaking and printing workshop, located near Yueshan City, Guoan, Feiqian. For the need for confidentiality, the workshop has been strictly controlled by the Interior Pavilion. Also for confidentiality considerations, there is only one textile workshop, also located near Yueshan City, Feiqian, with the supply of local cotton and silk, the textile workshop has woven a large number of cotton fabrics and a small amount of silk. Among them, cotton fabrics are mainly used for internal consumption of the Luo family (especially military products such as fuses, military uniforms, and quilts are never allowed to be sold to the outside), and silk is partly used for internal consumption and partly for sale in other parts of the Warring States Period.
There are five inferior cement workshops, located near Yegaoshan and Anyueshan City in Feiqian Kingdom, near Asushan in Feihou Kingdom, near Feihou Mountain, Feihou Kingdom Feijing Mountain, and near Qibu City in Fenghou Kingdom. These inferior cements are mainly used for the construction of territorial roads, water conservancy facilities, house construction and fort construction. Although with such quality, they were definitely investigated and closed down in later generations, they are much better than those construction muds in this era. Similarly, for the reasons of avoiding strengthening the strength of other forces, these cement technologies and finished products are not allowed to be exported outside the territory of the Luo family.
