Daqin: Ying Zheng Works for Me
043 Qin’s Shelter and Ji, in Qin’s People
Old Qin people all burst into tears.
But Manchao Wenwu's heart was beating wildly.
There are very few people present from Lao Qin, and only Wang Ben is from Lao Qin at the level of Jiuqing.
His Majesty's words clearly meant that he wanted to elevate the status of the old Qin people.
This is absolutely bad for them.
After all, if one party's status is raised, the other party will inevitably fall.
"They didn't get anything. In the past, the Shangjun reformed the law and suppressed the clan. This is what Da Qin needs." Ying Zheng said in an unquestionable and domineering tone: "Now that Da Qin is stable, the old Qin people should also enjoy happiness."
"I have decided that all the old Qin people will be exempted from corvee service for three years and land tax for three years."
"Everyone in Lao Qin will distribute food that can be used by a family every month."
As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderbolt out of thin air, shocking all the officials.
Thousands of Qin soldiers on the periphery all looked ecstatic.
You must know that Daqin soldiers are not paid!
Only by killing the enemy and making meritorious deeds can you get the title and reward.
As for pensions?
Just kidding, that kind of thing doesn't even exist.
Therefore, almost all ordinary families who did not make contributions in the war and lost their sons at home lived in some poverty.
This is also the tragic situation at the bottom of Da Qin.
"Old Qin people are too difficult." Su Qing had previously learned the situation from Ying Zheng's memory. Since Shang Yang's reform, the old Qin people had been too miserable, and they silently sacrificed for Da Qin, only to be disabled in exchange.
After all, there are very few people who can get titles and fiefs.
After unifying the six kingdoms, the Qin people who survived also fell into a state of nowhere to be sealed.
For example, most of them are sealed in the uninhabited places in the southern border and the northern border.
It's not that Ying Zheng hasn't thought about changing this situation before, but it's difficult. The first problem is lack of food.
But now there are potatoes and sweet potatoes.
The situation can be greatly improved, and both crops do not require fertile land.
It can also allow the old Qin people to open up wasteland.
As for whether this kind of welfare will allow the old Qin people to restore the previous clan, it is aggressive.
Even to the extent of becoming a family of the Three Kingdoms, Han and Tang Dynasties that threatens the imperial power?
Su Qing didn't take it seriously. Noble families and clans could be wiped out.
What if it becomes a family by then?
Naturally, there are ways to suppress it.
But it's right that Su Qing and Ying Zheng know about potatoes and sweet potatoes.
But others don't know.
They just saw Ying Zheng's bloody suppression, and now they want to raise the status of the old Qin people to overwhelm their status.
How can they bear it?
Even if there were so many beheadings before, they could not suppress them.
It's just that no one dared to jump out.
All eyes were on the important officials such as Meng Yi and Feng Quji.
They are not old Qin people, they also have clansmen, shouldn't they stand up? !
No!
Meng Yi and Feng Quji looked at each other and thought of the potatoes and sweet potatoes that His Majesty had let them see before.
At this time, I also knew the deep meaning of His Majesty at that time.
I'm afraid that was already planned at that time, right?
How does this make them say?
And most importantly, whoever stands up first will offend the military.
This is for the benefit of the entire army.
The Qin army numbered nearly 2 million, and almost all of the backbone were old Qin people.
Who dares to offend? !
Even Zhang Han didn't dare to stand up, he just looked at Wang Ben.
Although His Majesty's starting point is good, can Da Qin support it? !
really.
Wang Ben stood up, his body trembling and his tone trembling.
He understood too many things, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty Shengming!"
It has been nearly a hundred years since the Shang Yang period to the present.
Most of the people who fought and sacrificed for Daqin were old Qin people.
Every family in the old Qin family, who has not sacrificed anyone for Da Qin? !
Even their Wang family had too many people, and too many people died.
The most important thing is that he knows His Majesty's confidence, so he doesn't want to refute, nor does he want to refute.
The only hope is that the potatoes and sweet potatoes can really hold up.
Once he couldn't hold it any longer, Wang Ben would be the first to stand up.
Just these words, but also made everyone's expressions shocked to the extreme.
They didn't understand why no one came forward to speak.
You must know that the most important tax in Daqin is the land tax, followed by the poll tax.
Among them, the land tax accounted for 50% of Daqin's income.
Although the old Qin people were poor, because of the population problem, the land occupation was extremely exaggerated.
That's fine.
Where does the monthly food come from?
How does Da Qin support it? !
What's more, supporting the status of the old Qin people in the army today will definitely allow the old Qin people to enter the dynasty in the future.
What will they do then?
You must know that most of the people present are from the Six Nations, and a small number of them gradually joined during the unification period.
More were added before unification.
They are also people of the Six Nations, and no one knows whether they are thinking of the old country or not.
But there is no doubt that most of the people from the Six Kingdoms were able to enter Qin as officials after the country was destroyed, and it was due to the credit of these people.
This is also one of the reasons why Da Qin died only three years after he ascended the throne.
There are too many officials from the Six Nations! *
