Chapter 10 Chapter Ten Stormy Land Reform

Liu Yu's life has begun a new page. My life is about to turn an old page. Before starting the following story, I want to tell a hazy love story that made me grow up. As we all know, Xuanyuan Hongming is my stage name when I travel around the rivers and lakes. Like many celebrities, my stage name gradually replaced my real name. Unlike many celebrities, people have a stage name and become a celebrity, and I have a stage name. I still have a personal name. When Xuanyuan first entered elementary school, a substitute teacher came. She was a girl who had just graduated from a teacher's college.Oh, I forgot to mention that the head teacher's son was killed during the severe beating, which made her not give us lessons seriously, but this is also a good thing, and it didn't delay us too far.She used to make popsicles in our dairy factory, but she was transferred to a school as a teacher because of the severe quarrels and frequent spraying of saliva into the milk.

Little Xuanyuan was the class monitor at the time, and for some reason, she always liked to hang out with the little teacher when she had nothing to do, and the little teacher also gave me face. During recess, she would always take me to dance rubber bands and throw sandbags. Always pat little Xuanyuan's head. Oh, oh, I'm sorry I have to be honest, I was not the only one enjoying this treatment at that time, but I think in order to prove my childhood and have a little face, I should insist that I have more times than others. Little Xuanyuan would often pretend to be tender, pretending not to tie a red scarf, and pestering the little teacher to tie it for him every day, sometimes her breath would directly hit his face, feeling so beautiful in her heart.

In fact, that teacher was not very beautiful, because the word beautiful is very inaccurate. She had Teresa Teng's haircut at that time, and she had the same tall and well-proportioned figure as Lin Chiling. What fascinates Xiao Xuanyuan the most is her voice. There is a kind of power that goes straight to the soul through the ear veins. This power is especially obvious when I am drowsy or when I am wandering away. Later, when I went to university, I found out that every year in China, nearly 2,000 elementary school students who had the same feelings as me fell in love with their teachers in ignorance. Hawthorn Love!

Later, when little Xuanyuan grew up, after watching "Saint Seiya", especially seeing "Xiaoqiang" who was beaten so hard that he couldn't take care of himself every time, but he immediately made up for it when he saw Saori, and then he realized that every man Everyone has his own small universe, just waiting for the goddess to ignite it. Afterwards, the happy days always passed very quickly, and the fatal day finally came.One day during self-study, Xiao Xuanyuan had a stomachache. The conditions were poor at that time. The toilet was on the other side of the playground. From far away, I saw the little teacher also going to the toilet, so I walked quickly to the toilet that almost entered the toilet at the same time as the little teacher...

Of course each enters its own way! At that time, the walls were very thin and the surroundings were silent, little Xuanyuan didn't know why, but he just remembered that he didn't dare to pant, but he clearly heard the sound of the little teacher panting and undoing his belt belt, followed by rumbling, clattering... At that time, Little Xuanyuan only felt that his head was blank. In fact, eating, drinking, and lassing was a very normal thing, but for some reason, he always had the feeling that his dreams were being torn to pieces, and he felt a faint pain.Mr. Lu Xun once said that tragedy is tearing up beautiful things for others to see.Torn was shredded, but he didn't feel the pleasure of shredding.

"Cough, life is like tea leaves, which will eventually be soaked in cups", Da Xuanyuan's self-mockery of the past several years later. "It turns out that the teacher is not only more knowledgeable than the students, but also the movement of the opening is greater than the students. No matter how perfect things are, there are also imperfections. , cough", Xiao Xuanyuan couldn't help sighing, a sweet past was unknowingly made into black humor by life. In fact, the story itself is nothing, the first love has no experience, it is only ridiculous, not pitiful. But this story touched me a lot. It let me know that there is no absolutely perfect thing in this world. Whenever I get some grades and feel complacent, I always remember the old self-talk: It’s not that good, It was all thought up.I will tell myself, don't be arrogant, you are far behind, and the reality is far behind.

Complicating simple things and simplifying complicated things are two things I like to do very much. Although I can't do it well, I still like to do it. Liu Yu is obviously not a person who likes to think things well. He knows very well that his Huahua Jiangshan is far from the solid and beautiful one he saw. Although since he conquered Nanyan and destroyed Lu Xun, there was no decent person in this country who could threaten him. Facts have proved that he is the most courageous and outstanding genius in the Eastern Jin Empire. In fact, he is the same kind of person as Xu Daofu and Lu Xun, with the same aspirations and aspirations. He doesn't hate them, and even feels a little sympathetic to each other during holidays, but it's a pity that the clouds in the world are too crowded.

The minister is my chess piece, the emperor is my puppet, the world is in my hands, and no one in the world is my opponent. Is that true? That's true, but not all of it. He clearly remembered that during the turmoil of Sun En and Lu Xun, hundreds of thousands of refugees often followed him to rebel.These people are usually good citizens, obedient and obedient, but as soon as someone stirs up the flames, they can immediately arouse their animal side. Humans are transformed from beasts, first beasts, and then humans. So how can ordinary people be safe and secure as individuals? Liu Yu thought hard, recalling his childhood, he believed that suffering would give him the answer.

He remembered that when he was young, the sky had not given him a big task, and he was still suffering his mind and straining his bones.He left the green hills by himself, but still had no firewood. He was often exhausted to the point of convulsions of the brain and spinal cord.But he still can't find the essentials of life. Seeing a lover's love, he, a caring person, can only cry. He has worked in various industries, but discrimination is everywhere... What is the crux of the matter, and what kind of talents do you have so that you don't have to suffer or wander? Liu Yu is very smart, he quickly found the answer.

Well, let's start my plan around the answer, as a famous person said, not one step later, not one step earlier, just at this time. In fact, normally speaking, when the faculties are mixed for Liu Yu's sake, it is enough. I am the first military officer and the first chief executive officer, the emperor is mentally retarded, and the jade seal is kept by him. A group of arrogant soldiers who take absolute obedience as their vocation under him seem to be unable to sit on the dragon chair. He is much more chic than the emperor.The world seemed to be moving in the direction he wanted, at least on the surface.

Now this superficially successful person has to do a tightrope walk. The risk of walking this tightrope is much greater than cutting down a few enemies on the battlefield or scolding two Liu Yis in the temple, but in the dark, there is a voice , Telling him repeatedly, you have to do this, not for anything else, because you are Liu Yu. So Liu Dameng was going to do something that his predecessors, including Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others, had never done. This incident was enough to make him famous in history, but it was also hated by thousands of people at the time. Throughout China's 3,500-year history (you can also say 5,000 years), there have been countless rulers and hegemons, and it is not uncommon for people to be crowned with force for a while, but there are very few people who dare to do this. Because this matter is too risky, the brothers of the emperors who have been called the first emperor through the ages in history are very good at martial arts and martial arts, but they have never touched this thing. This thing has a very modern name-reform. It sounds simple, but if you really do it, it's troublesome, big trouble.The cake is so big, if it is distributed to you, others will have less.There is no evidence to prove that others are more enlightened than you, or that you are more noble than others. Nobility has never had anything to do with morality, it is only born out of food and clothing. If the world is like this cake, if you move it casually, you may save the lives of tens of millions of people, but maybe you will destroy the jobs of tens of millions of people, and there will be a big mess. If it really messes up, no one will be good live. So normal people don't touch this thing, and people who do it are not very normal. Even if there are a few people who occasionally use this thing, they all take the slant of the sword and win or lose by slanting. For example, King Zhao Wuling's military reform, Wang Mang's financial system reform, and Zhang Juzheng's financial and political reform are all based on the choice of state power. The branches and leaves of a big tree can be repaired, and no one dares to dig the root of the big tree directly.Even so, it is still hard to escape the fate of being always blown away by the rain and the wind. It can be seen from this that reform is really a matter with far greater risks than benefits. In the final analysis, there is one reason and two basic points. A basic point is interest.You have to understand that existence is reasonable. No matter how rotten the old mechanism is, some people still rely on it for a living. If you go up and knock on it, a random part is the livelihood of a group of people.A person with a good personality will come to your house to eat and drink, and a person with a bad personality will come to your house to fight.In short, you let me live a bad life, and I let you die a bad life. Another basic point is habit, yes it is habit.Many couples are resolute in their quarrels, because of the habit of losing, the temperature of many people holding hands has lowered the average body temperature, and they still choose to marry.Because the inertia of thinking and life tells them that although the old ones are not good, the new ones may be even worse. No one can predict the future. Since the future is uncertain, it is better to choose the present. The reason why the two points converge is that human nature is selfish. This is common sense, not a profound theory, not cutting-edge knowledge, but human survival instinct.As long as you treat people as human beings, you will gain such common sense.Humans have divinity, but they are also animals; they can do good things, but they can also do bad things; sometimes they are noble, but sometimes they are evil;Human beings are what they are, not born warriors, moral personifications, or God's servants. No one is born great. Greatness is a lie. Selfishness is the truth. After so much hard work, Liu Yu still doesn't listen to me. He still wants to reform, and he only picks the most difficult reforms. Liu Yu hasn't read many books. He doesn't like politics, finance, and culture. He doesn't like those things that are winding. He likes to be straightforward.So he went straight to the dead corner of the reform, the most difficult to shake the root to dig, so his reform is called Tuduan, also known as land reform. What is the land? The land is a home. If there is no place to live, you will be wandering wherever you go. The land is food. If you have no possibility to eat, you will suffer wherever you go. From the Ninth Five-Year Emperor to the people of Limin, what the people have always pursued is the land. Liu Yu used to be a small merchant and peddler, chopping firewood and fishing was even more helpless, just because he had no land, he wanted to be a farmer, but he couldn't.So he knew the pain of not having land, because he had no land, he was forced to gamble, and he was beaten like a four-faced, because he had no land, he was forced to be a soldier, although he got lucky.But he knew that it was just luck. How many sons, fathers and husbands like him fell on the journey and died in foreign countries. His success cannot be replicated. It is difficult for those who suffered hardships when they were young to forget that period of suffering, because suffering made them strong; because of suffering, their lives were accomplished.It's time to give back to those hard days. So Liu Yu reformed. He knew that there were many difficulties and dangers, and he knew that there was a long way to go, so he changed it. Because he has seen corrupt officials, people who starve to death, and mean landlords, because he knows that the poor are human beings and have the right to survive.This is his conscience, the conscience of an emperor. The conscience of the people is justice, the conscience of the ministers is morality, and the conscience of the emperor is benevolence and righteousness, benevolence and righteousness to the common people. In the society at that time, speaking benevolence and righteousness to the emperor was basically equivalent to speaking honesty to Heshen and chastity to Jinlian. In that age of ignoring the truth and worshiping the iron fist, how many people who kept their own law and order could have a good death.The tyranny is rampant, there are so many dead bones in China, evil power is rampant, and there are so many elegiac songs in the mountains and rivers. I really don't know what kind of world it is. Before introducing Liu Yu's reforms, let's first introduce how difficult the things he changed were. There are land problems every year, especially at that time. A child without a mother is a long story.At the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, the eight prodigal princes of the Sima royal family basically didn’t do anything. Anyway, they knew nothing. In fact, there is nothing shameful about a prince being a prodigal.It is an innate advantage for someone to become a prodigal son, which proves that he has a family that can be defeated. Some people who like traditional culture will be proud of it. They feel like a martial arts master. Not everyone is called a Taoist master in martial arts novels. what? But the problem is that this group of high-ranking prodigal sons all have a super good memory and are very self-motivated. The Sima family's ancestral precepts are all engraved in their hearts. The problem is that if the prince climbs the peak, he will be the emperor. So the war of eight people fighting for a position began, making the good-looking Splendid Country look like a vegetative state with necrotic prostate, so all kinds of ghosts and monsters appeared one after another.Above the temple, the rotten wood is the official; between the majesty of the palace, the beasts eat the salary;As a result, the people in the Shejiqiu Market were devastated. It was a time of great chaos in the north, and even the central government moved its capital to the old place of Soochow, which can be regarded as preserving a little blood for Chinese orthodoxy.Compared with the north where the heroes are fighting for hegemony and starving for thousands of miles, the south of the Yangtze River is a paradise away from war. So the northerners crossed south one after another, including the displaced gentry and common people.Of course, most of those who were able to flee to the south with their families were officials and aristocratic families of the former Western Jin government.So a problem came out, the site was reduced by half, but the number of officials was doubled. For example, if you are the county magistrate of Shanxi and escaped to Jiangxi, what would you ask the emperor to do?They will follow you loyally and follow you. They would rather die than be a subjugated slave. They come here and you are always ready to counterattack. Regardless of them, who will mess with you?What's more, many aristocratic families in the north are so powerful that they even have the energy to set up another emperor. If you don't give him the establishment, he may directly tell you "the ruler is not right, the minister will vote for a foreign country", or turn his elbows outward and turn the cannon to Li Bang, makes you sick and sad. We can only give the establishment, so the county magistrate of Shanxi is still the county magistrate of Shanxi, but the office is moved to Jiangxi, and the Shanxi people who fled with him are still under his control, and the taxes are also under his control, and the officials in Jiangxi cannot control it.But the problem is that not all the people in Shanxi are in Jiangxi. They may be in Jiangsu or Guangxi. Sea Corner".As a result, these northerners who migrated to the south enjoy the characteristics of not being able to control what they can manage, and not being able to control what should be managed. Moreover, the top officials of the Eastern Jin government, including the royal family, were all northerners, and they fully implemented humane management of the northerners.In order to encourage northerners who represented advanced productive forces at that time to surrender from hostile forces, they were also happy to give preferential policies such as tax exemption and corvee service. But everything goes wrong if you play it big. The aristocratic families in the north saw that the Yellow River was crossed and the liberation of the whole of China was far away. When their ideals were shattered, they began to pursue realistic things. Power-seeking prevailed and corruption prevailed. Although there are also high-level officials raising their arms and clamoring for the eradication of corruption, they are only the posture and means of attacking dissidents. If the power is not supervised, such things will inevitably happen.Let a group of rats guard the barn, no matter how innocent and noble the rats pretend to be, they will eventually rob the barn.There are swarms of rats, and even if you catch a few occasionally, there are still a large group of rats munching there. Moreover, if the upper beam is not right, the lower beam will be crooked. Seeing that the northern household registration is so popular, many southerners start selling their children to find connections to work in the wealthy northern boss's house. After doing a good job, they become domestic slaves. If you can't be a house slave, you have to rent the land of the boss in the north, which can be free of rent and corvee.Those who hold temporary residence permits have become popular, the aborigines have been taken advantage of, the contradictions among the people have immediately become the main contradictions in society, and regional discrimination is unprecedentedly prevalent. So the Eastern Jin government is a deformed government. Let half of the southerners support half of the northerners, can they not be poor and weak?Therefore, once the Sun En cult rebelled, the people of Sanwu came to revolutionize the government as if they had taken an aphrodisiac. Liu Yu is not young, but his eyes are good, he saw the root of this. Liu Yu wanted to reform, which frightened the staff around him. They all knew that Boss Liu was a person who either didn't do it or did it. So a group of masters surrounded Liu Yu to remonstrate, saying that they should not offend the wealthy gentry, otherwise there would be big troubles. Liu Yuyi sternly said: "Today, my disciples are living in the midst of injustice and injustice, and entrusted our orders to a country that is neither a donkey nor a horse."The country is poor and weak, if we don't change it, and we don't need to be castrated by foreign enemies, we will be abolished first. Some people say that this world has always been the world of the rich and powerful.Offended all the rich and powerful, do you think the reform is still possible? Liu Yu said sternly: Wrong, this world is neither the world of the rich nor the world of the powerful, it is the world of the caring people, the world of the conscientious. He went on to say: If the emperor is a big fish, officials at all levels are small fish, landlords are shrimp, and people are water.It is normal for big fish to eat small fish, small fish to eat shrimp, and shrimp to drink water, but if one day, the water dries up, what else can you eat? Another ignorant expert and scholar came to set the scene, opening his mouth and shutting his mouth. The sage said, what Confucius said, that is to say, benevolence, to be harmonious. Later, he thought it was not big enough, and he also involved Buddha, saying that life is like being in the world. Among them, if the heart does not move, people will not move rashly, and if the heart does not move, people will not be hurt; if the heart moves, people will move rashly, which will hurt their body and pain their bones, so they will experience all kinds of pain in the world.I warn you, old Liu, don't let your mind wander, no one in the world can suppress you, but there are gods standing above your head, you are doing it, the sky is watching, the big Buddha and little ghosts are thinking about it, so keep a low profile. Liu Yu glanced at him contemptuously, and said coldly: Please don't take my tolerance for you as your shameless capital. China has never lacked theory, only common sense.People like you disregard common sense, and just open your mouth. What kind of sayings, what kind of Buddha's words, seem to be very profound, but in fact they are all nonsense, even shameless whitewashing.There are 10,000 beautiful and brilliant sentences, none of which touches the truth. Rather than saying that you are knowledgeable, it is better to say that you are showing off your knowledge. Then he said in a loud voice: Killing the "now" also kills the "future".The future is the age of descendants and people.Liu Yushan is a reckless man who is not afraid of death, but he is a man of promise, and he will never take death lightly. I also know that reform is a crisis, but the word "crisis" means danger and the other means opportunity. Will not give up any effort. I think the most exciting thing in life is not the moment of realizing the ideal, but the process of sticking to the ideal! An ideal life is an ideal life.I hope that through my efforts, future generations and the people of Li can live a life like this: they can afford to eat, wear clothes, and live in houses; so that women will no longer cry, children will no longer be hurt, and people who should laugh People laugh out loud, so that the poor people will be strong from then on. To this end, I will dedicate all my youth and blood, even if there is no redemption ahead, even if the abyss is bottomless, I will never turn back. You ask me why I am so paranoid, because I am full of affection for this land. Earth break, must do!Those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish! At that moment, Liu Yu's voice resounded throughout the universe. Everyone looked into Liu Yu's eyes, and saw perseverance and sincerity besides eye shit. So a land movement that swept across the world began. In history, it has a famous name-Yixi Tuduan. In this movement, all people have to pay taxes according to their place of residence, regardless of your household registration and ancestry, all are equal, the population of the aristocratic families must be cleared, and taxes are paid according to the people and fields they support, and all mountains, rivers and rivers are not The quasi-big households filled their pockets and were distributed uniformly by the state. Liu Yu is a real person.His policy is also very solid, whoever has whoever pays, pays everything, and does not refuse to pay. But the effect is not good, because Liu Yu is not a very intelligent theorist. Many people have thought about the thing he came up with, but there are problems in the execution link.Because the land has always been in the hands of the gentry and high-ranking officials, if you cut off their wealth, they will cut off your livelihood. In addition, the Chinese people believe in "when the water is clear, there will be no fish", and they are calm about the turbid state, not to mention the bad guys who mix well, there seems to be no shortage of such cases from ancient times to the present, and good cabbage is always bullied by pigs.Everyone is used to living with one eye open and one eye closed, and their emotions are super stable.When castration becomes a habit, everyone grows the gene of being castrated. So when Liu Yu wanted to break the ground, most people thought it was just swatting flies and not tigers. Even Liu Yu's officials saw people discounted when implementing policies, and people who came to big families to collect taxes and inspect people were all catwalks. .Many people think that Boss Liu's new official set the fire, and once he knew how deep the water behind the soil break was, he would automatically turn off the fire and switch to pumping water. But they forgot that Liu Yu is not a theorist, but a doer, and his specialty is strong hands-on ability. It's time to find someone to do it! Liu Yu has black hands, so this person should have a thick skin. Soon this person appeared, this person is Yu Liang, a wealthy family in Kuaiji County, and a local sex expert.He was not well-educated, but he was well-versed in human relations. He relied on his wine, sex and wealth to curry favor with Sima Xiuzhi, an outstanding figure in the Sima royal family at that time, and then his career went smoothly, and his business grew bigger and bigger.He engages in fields, real estate, forestry, aquaculture, and hotels.As a result, he quickly made a fortune and was on the local Forbes list. So his pace of life began to speed up, from the dog channel to the wolf channel, living the condensed essence of a wonderful life every day.She was followed by bodyguards when she went out, accompanied by beautiful women when she slept, and only opened her mouth when eating. Her body became weaker and softer, but her temper became harder and harder. What he said about Liu Yu was basically committing crimes against the wind. You have to collect taxes, and the iron cock will leave some rust. Yu Liang is a stainless steel cock at all!If you want to investigate people, he first hid thousands of domestic slaves in his own mountains, and then cried poorly, saying that he had a miserable life and was abandoned by his slaves.The magistrate wanted to punish him, but found that he was a monster from Journey to the West - there were people on it. Looking at the dejected officials, he smugly shouted: "Young people don't act recklessly, they are bold and presumptuous. May I ask where the subject matter came from in old age." But he forgot, getting carried away should climax and die. Napoleon said before his death: I once commanded a million soldiers, but now there is no one in front of me; I once swept three continents, but now I have no foothold.Jesus of Nazareth is far better than me.He did not have a single soldier, and he did not occupy the size of the land, but his kingdom was established in the hearts of all people, because what he did was righteous. Liu Yu also thought that what he was doing was just, not to mention he still had soldiers in his hands. He firmly believes that under the hammer, there are only the knees of a coward; the top of the mace is covered, and the arrogant head is hard to see. It is time to show off the thunderbolt skills. On a smoggy night, someone knocked on the door of Yu Liang's house. Yu Batian, who was sleepy, saw soldiers from the Beifu standing outside the door. Before the execution, Yu Liang looked a little haggard, with a stubbled beard, a hoarse voice and panting, as if his crotch was being pinched by a pig. I have been sad and weeping, and I have been heartbroken. This is the price of "two". After cutting down the black forces, it's time to put up a protective umbrella. Boss Liu said fiercely to Sima Xiuzhi, the majestic king of Qiao for half his life: I can't participate in the first half of your life, and I will accompany you to the end in the second half of your life. Sima Xiuzhi sincerely admitted his mistakes and made a self-criticism, and Boss Liu put down his butcher knife and dismissed him for negligence. So during that time, everyone in the aristocratic family was in danger. After all, everyone had original sin. No one's butt was clean. Many people jumped off buildings, and many people were afraid of being hit. The government minister has studied for more than ten years, looking around and embracing each other, it is better to be in kindergarten when I think of it!Everyone is lamenting: You are no longer the wind, and I am no longer the sand, no matter how lingering you are, you will never reach the end of the world.Wipe away the tears, tomorrow morning, we will all work for Boss Liu. In this way, Boss Liu, through his firm belief and sharp sword, achieved "there are people who have land, who have land have money, and who have money are useful", realized the land break, solved the problem of financial and military sources, implemented with iron blood, and the reform was successful . Is it that simple?Will strongman charisma alone be enough to unleash a revolution? Of course not, as I said, reform is the redistribution of cakes, some people will be hungry, some people will be supportive, to explore the mystery of Liu Yu's reform success, just look at its characteristics. Liu Yu's reform is not in the exploration of wisdom, but in the vigorous execution. The reason why it was so smooth is that Liu Yu made a very subtle technical treatment. The three prefectures of Nanxu, Nanyan, and Nanqing, which were widely distributed by the Beifu Army, were not included in this reform. Is there anything more satisfying in the world than a full man watching a hungry man hungry?So this policy guaranteed the land break and made a success story.
