Chapter 181 Reform of Nanzhao Kingdom
The influence of worshiping the moon in Nanzhao is unquestionable. The Witch King has long been overshadowed by worshiping the moon. Therefore, after formally reporting to the Witch King, the entire Nanzhao Kingdom has entered into a full-fledged reform.
The first to change were the low-level peasants in Nanzhao.
In any case, in this era of serious shortage of productivity, peasants are the foundation of a country even though they are at the bottom of society.
Every year, [-]% of the people need to work in the farmland to produce food to supply the consumption of the country. Even if there are natural disasters such as floods, starvation is almost inevitable.
The first article of the land reform made the people of Nanzhao fall into a crazy situation, contracting production to households, contracting the land to individuals and then paying a small part of the tax, in this era of the king's land Arguably the most deviant thing ever.
But it is the best policy for the people. The only thing that needs to be done is to plant the seeds or plants provided by the Moon Worshiper. For people in this era, what is the difference between seeds? Better life than before.
Not only that, but some practitioners often go to the farmland to cast spells on these crops so that they can grow faster.
Others include setting up bureaus for agriculture, industry and commerce, advocating the establishment of industries, encouraging business, and organizing chambers of commerce;
Rewarding scientific writings and inventions, and many other reforms almost throughout Nanzhao.
It would be extremely difficult to implement this in other countries, but Nanzhao Moon Worship can be said to be the dominant family, and the will of Moon Worship can be almost [-]% implemented here.
As a result, a vigorous reform storm began in Nanzhao, and the Nanzhao Kingdom, which was like a pool of stagnant water, glowed with new vitality as if it had been injected with a new spring.
A month later.
"Is this the country of Nanzhao, Linger's hometown?" On this day, a group of more than a dozen people walked into the territory of Nanzhao, and the person who spoke was a young man who looked a bit unruly. He carried two swords on his back.
Beside him is a girl of sixteen or seventeen years old with a pure appearance and a graceful figure, on the other side is a heroic woman in red, and behind the three are a group of people dressed in Miaojiang costumes.
"This is where Miaojiang is not as vast as the Central Plains, but it also has a special flavor. The son-in-law can experience the customs and customs here." An old man stood up and said, but his eyes were full of nostalgia for the land of Nanzhao .
Obviously it was the deep love for this land, and then a flash of determination flashed in his eyes, the sins he made, even if he risked his life, he would have to erase them.
"The person here is Elder Shigong Hushi." Following a burst of chaotic footsteps, a group of people dressed as soldiers appeared in front of everyone.
"It's the old man, whose subordinates are you?" Shi Gonghu, the former old man, said to the crowd in a full-fledged way, and it was impossible to tell that he was an old man over 100 years old.
"At the end of the day, under the orders of Lord Li, Elder Shi and Her Royal Highness the Princess are invited to Li's Mansion for a briefing." The leader stepped forward and said respectfully.
"Princess, Mr. Li is the prime minister of Nanzhao. If you need his help to deal with Baiyue, do you want to go to Li's mansion?" Shi Gonghu asked in a low voice.
"Since Elder Shi said so, then." Zhao Ling'er was about to agree, when a loud voice came from not far away.
"Just ahead, hurry up." A group of people dressed as ordinary people appeared in everyone's sight. They all had different looks and clothing, and different ages. There were even old people and children among them. Tools for labor, or holding stone eggs and rushing towards here aggressively.
The only thing that is the same is probably a red cloth tied around the arm, that red is dazzling.
"No, the people of Nanzhao are so enthusiastic, they must have known that Ling'er is back and rushed to welcome her." Li Xiaoyao said happily.
"Several, let's hurry up, or it will be too late!" The soldier before that said with a panicked face.
"It's too late? What's the point? Could it be that these people in Nanzhao are man-eating tigers?" Shi Gonghu said seriously, seeing the people running away in fright. In Shi Gonghu's memory, only some corrupt officials would know this. in this way.
Therefore, in Shi Gonghu's heart, this person may not be a good person, and his tone of voice is naturally a bit harsh.
"It's not what Elder Shi thought, but it is."
"pat~"
Before he finished speaking, a rotten egg hit the soldier's face, and the strong smell made Li Xiaoyao and the others couldn't help but take a few steps back.
"It's him, Prime Minister Li's eagle dog. If you catch him, you can find Prime Minister Li's hiding place. He must not be allowed to escape today." A group of people rushed up after speaking.
Those soldiers with weapons in their hands were beaten to the ground by some sundries before they stepped forward, and facing the swords of these soldiers, these ordinary people did not have the slightest fear.
"Stop! Who allowed you to aim your swords at your fellow citizens!" Shi Gonghu took a step forward, and his voice was like a thunderous thunder, which instantly shocked the chaotic and noisy scene.
Everyone turned to look at this imposing old man.
The former soldier leader couldn't help showing bitterness on his face. If it made sense, he didn't want to point his weapon at them. The key is that this problem is not that simple.
"Old man Shi Gonghu, please tell me if you have anything, I, Shi Gonghu, will definitely uphold justice for you." Elder Shi glanced at the leader of the soldiers and snorted coldly.
Since ancient times, the people did not fight with the officials, so how much grievance would it take for these honest farmers to directly attack these soldiers. In Shi Gonghu's heart, the soldiers on the side have already been equated with corrupt officials.
If the matter is true, Shi Gonghu said that he would never show mercy.
"They must be with that surnamed Li, this group of landlords, catch them and send them to a public trial!" The silence only lasted for a moment before being submerged by the rolling tide, and pieces of debris were thrown at Shi Gonghu
Even Shi Gonghu was a little dumbfounded at the moment.
"Father!" Tang Yu, who was behind him, hurried forward to block these flying debris for his foster father.
"Stop!" Suddenly a kind voice came, and all the people in Nanzhao stopped their movements as if they had been trained for a moment.
They knelt down on the ground in unison.
"Greetings to the Great Merciful and Great Merciful Moon Worshiper." At this moment, all the people who had looked like mobs kept worshiping the visitor like obedient sheep.
"Baiyue, it's really you who messed up. I really hate that I didn't kill you with my own hands." Shi Gonghu looked at the visitor and said with hatred on his face. The benevolence of a woman back then created a chief culprit in Nanzhao , This is almost the biggest stain in Shi Gonghu's life.
"Father, if you don't investigate, you don't have the right to speak. As wise as you, you can't see through this?" Baiyue said calmly.
"Stop talking nonsense, what's going on here?" Shi Gonghu said angrily. In Shi Gonghu's view, it must be the worship of the moon to eliminate dissidents and encourage the people to create the current situation.
"Under the inevitable trend of historical development, all heresies that try to stop the torrent of history will only become a thing of the past and will be crushed. Father-in-law, you have been away for half a year. My child would like to ask you to take a look at the new Nanzhao Kingdom? Bai Yue looked at Shi Gonghu with a smile on his face.
Chapter 182 Reform of the Nanzhao Kingdom
"Father, I haven't seen you for a long time. You are still growing strong." Walking on the official road, Baiyue looked at Shi Gonghu and said with emotion. Those people had already been arrested and tried by the furious people before, and Baiyue didn't express anything about it. accident.
"Why are you bewitching those people to attack those people, and what exactly do you want to do?" Shi Gonghu didn't pay attention to Baiyue but asked instead, Shi Gonghu was quite concerned about this point.
"I didn't confuse them. The reform will inevitably violate the interests of some people. These moths that block the wave of reform will surely be drowned in the ocean of the masses." Baiyue said with deep emotion.
In the beginning, the idea of worshiping the moon was to directly remove these moths by himself.
But the development of things later was somewhat beyond Baiyue's own expectations. The people even spontaneously organized an organization. At first, they only targeted some ordinary gentry and landlords who did not agree with the reform, and tied them up for a so-called public trial.
Later, when Baiyue discovered this, he immediately turned on the traffic lights. With the support of the above policies, the objects of the public trial instantly expanded from ordinary landlords to some corrupt officials, and the storm of public trials quickly spread to the entire Nanzhao Kingdom.
The power of the people is great, and Baiyue did not understand the true meaning of this sentence until this time. In the past, although he controlled the government and even deceived the people, he could achieve similar effects, but the fake ones are fake after all.
Apart from adding more helplessness to one's heart, there is no meaning of number four. How can it be more comfortable to be truly loved by thousands of people now.
A joy welled up from the bottom of my heart.
"Hmph, the demonic words are confusing the crowd!" Shi Gonghu didn't believe what Bai Yue said.
