Whether it is the one-whip method or the dime-spreading of acres, it will to a certain extent suppress the extremely serious land annexation problem in feudal society.

The reason why the Ming Dynasty was destroyed was that in addition to the ten-year locust plague that swept thousands of miles, the high concentration of land was the primary reason. At that time, whether it was the royal family, vassal kings, ministers, or literati, they all occupied a large amount of land, and they evaded taxes through various means such as scattering, sprinkling, and allusion. Some officials did not hide their faces at all, and they wrote letters to local officials openly, and they could not collect their own taxes. Once the land was highly concentrated, the farmers' taxes intensified, and the national fiscal crisis would inevitably lead to a nationwide uprising, so Dashun learned a lesson.

In the ancient landlord class, it was clear that there were two types of people, one was a bureaucratic landlord, who lived the best life. The other was a commoner landlord, who had money to buy land and hired tenants to farm.

Bureaucratic landlords have the power to be partially exempt from taxes and completely exempt from service. The life of common landlords depends on the times. Taxes are levied by acres. The more arable land, the more taxes are collected. In the Yongle Dynasty and the early Ming Dynasty, common landlords actually "work hard for whom and whom they are busy", and they have little gain, but this is not the case. Common landlords have a relationship and have strong financial resources, they can completely bribe local officials.

For example, the business of the Xing family in Wujiang is a common landlord. The Xue family excludes the identity of the imperial merchants and also belongs to the common landlords.

The current family situation is already very clear.

The only person who truly has the ability to turn the tide is Jia Cong.

The Wang family, who has in-laws, will certainly help the Jia family, but in the cold-blooded and ruthless political struggle, in-laws, like fellow villagers, can be abandoned at any time.

"Is this unprecedented?" Lin Daiyu blinked her eyelashes.

"Not count." Jia Cong explained: "During the Hongxi period, there was a son of a Shangshu who was appointed as the sixth rank at the age of ten."

Jia Tanchun didn't believe it: "Can you become an official at the age of ten?"

"I am just a wise man, with a wealth but no position, but it's amazing enough, as said in "History of Ming Dynasty". Jia Cong was a little tired. He was a little awkward to be an official at the age of thirteen, and his age was also awkward.

"Where is the old lady, go to Hunting to ask her for peace?" Jia Yingchun blinked at him, as if she wanted him to go over.

Jia Cong's cold eyes flashed, "Forget it, the old lady thinks I'm annoyed, and she saves me from dim every day, but she is unhappy."

Everyone remained silent. Thinking about his moment, he rose up with a concubine's son. Although Mrs. Xing was his stepmother, she had no mother's care at all. Jia Cong probably didn't really hope that she would give An Ren the title. And Jia Cong had never had any favors to Jia Cong at all. After Wu Zetian came to power, she was very bad for her family, and the clan system was prone to psychological deformities.

Even if Jia Mu changed her attitude at this time, it was too late. Jia Cong relied on himself and, under the constraints of the patriarchal system, although he had to protect some of the people in the Jia family, he might not be able to say how much affection he had.

"Tomorrow you will be in a sedan chair and go to the imperial city to work. When you come back, don't forget to buy our poetry review book." Jia Xichun muttered.

Jia Cong agreed, and the group left.

...

There was only one top scholar in the country in three years. That night, Jia She sent invitations and held a banquet. The princes and ministers of the capital, the great officials and nobles, either sent descendants to the banquet, or simply ordered slaves to give gifts. Even so, the scale of the top scholar dinner was like a difference compared to the junior high school scholar.

The maids and mothers served wine and food endlessly, and the flowing mats were placed straight to the outer ritual gate, with flowers blooming and cooking oil in a fire.

Jia Mu, who finally accepted the invitation of her eldest son, ranked first. There was no sound of opera at this banquet. This is because an old concubine died this year, and the wife of Jia Mu Wang and others even went to the palace to mourn. The Ministry of Rites issued an edict to pardon all actors from the official family and not to be called. Moreover, in late April this year, just after Jia Cong won the top scorer, Jia Jing died because of taking elixirs, and Jia Qiang hosted the funeral.

According to the five-support system of Dashun, Jia Cong, his cousin, also had to be filial, but he was not his own parents. The filial piety was slightly less important and would not affect the normal official mission.

When the banquet ended, the guests dispersed, and only relatives were left. Xing Zhong, who came to eat and drink for free, said: "Now Cong'er should discuss the kiss, right?"

"Look at what my uncle said, the country is filial and the family is filial. You cannot marry or perform during this period." Wang Xifeng deliberately expressed her long-lasting tone, as if she was a country bumpkin Xing Zhong, who did not understand the rules and etiquette.

In ancient times, there were also urban and rural barriers. People in Hebei called rural people "Chaitou", while people in Suzhou "Geitou", full of contempt, irony, and look down upon. People in the city also had the strongest sense of superiority in the capital. Zhu Guozhen, a member of the Donglin Party, recorded a real case. At that time, a minister of the Ministry of Personnel was sitting in a sedan chair on the street, an aunt refused to give way, and a slave scolded him for beating. The aunt in the city cursed: I have seen many ant officers like you. After scolding, I left.

When Liu Laolao entered the Grand View Garden, she was also ridiculed and ridiculed.

Xing Zhong laughed embarrassedly. He was born with a small background, so he naturally felt inferior and did not dare to retaliate. Mrs. Xing rolled her eyes at her daughter-in-law. Xing Zhong was her biological brother. Isn’t this not to give her a face? However, Mrs. Xing didn’t care about this face. She gave nothing to her when facing her brothers and family.

"The country is filial to the family, and it is impossible to marry. It is okay to get married. After the filial piety period, you can just marry him." Mrs. Xing squeezed out a smile.

"There are so many daughters who want to be the wife of the top scholar in the capital." Mrs. Zhongjing toasted.

Jia Cong had already breathed a sigh of relief because he happened to be filial to the country and filial to the family, so he didn't have to consider getting married for the time being, so he would become an official first.

Moreover, there is Qingwen in his room, Xiangling is enough to flirt with sex, and she is not very eager for women. Moreover, thirteen or fourteen years old is the initial stage of men's and hormone secretion, and it can only increase in a positive proportion later. It also requires moderation. Filial piety is the first priority and lust is the first.

"Let's discuss this matter later, and I have to listen to Cong'er's opinion." Jia She frowned. He did this not for humanity, but for the excessive squandering Jia She, who began to lack money. Jia Lian was also short of money every day and spent money. He was planning to ask his son for filial piety money in a few months.

The income of ancient bureaucrats was not a salary or a farm, but a gift. Someone would definitely give gifts to Jia Cong. For example, today I received a lot of gifts. According to statistics from the French, in the late Chinese feudal society, the silver and money income received by officials was thirteen to nineteen times the salary, which was in fact.

Jia Baoyu in the table curled his lips and didn't care at all. Li Wan wanted to use this to urge Jia Lan. Mrs. Wang was helpless and was worried about Baoyu's lack of progress, and her expression seemed to be lost. Jia Mu looked at Lin Daiyu who was getting thinner and thinner, and then looked at Xue Baochai, with a little voice: "It's a pity that Zheng'er ordered the students to be a student but did not return, and the East Mansion was also lost, otherwise today would be a reunion. I have also heard that Hanlin was the Qing Dynasty, and the joints were not in their position, so I don't understand them very much."

"Mother." Jia She said with great since Hanlin Yisheng, my son heard from a chief of the Ministry of Personnel. It was not difficult for him to compile the article. He became the Minister of the Secretariat and the Minister of the State Council, and then he had hope to be promoted to the cabinet."
