Yipin County Magistrate: Start with invincibility

Chapter 81 Dare to make a bet with this official
From Qin Feng's opening to the present, although Yan Li has always been conflicted in his heart, he has to admit that what Qin Feng said is the truth.

Yan Li also agrees with the two problems Qin Feng pointed out.

It's just that Yan Li couldn't think of a solution.

The land is in the hands of others, how can the farmers get out of the predicament?

You can only starve every year, borrow money every year, owe money every year, and pay off debts every year.

This generation is unclear, and the younger generation continues to pay back when they grow up, and so on, a vicious circle, so that those landlords have rich clothes and food for generations, while the people who have no land are always living on the verge of death.

The gentry and landowners seem to have strangled the peasants by the throat, telling them to go east, they can only go east, and dare not disobey at all.

How can such a deadlock be solved?
"Hmph, what can you do?"

Yan Li paused and snorted coldly.

"Hey, the official's method is divided into two steps. The first step is to increase the yield per mu of the current field."

"Each household handed over [-]% of the grain produced in the fields in previous years to the landlord, and after paying their share of the imperial grain tax, the rest was just enough to feed the hunger, and sometimes there was no food to eat before the end of the year. "

"But since the grain is given to the landlords and the imperial court according to the proportion, as long as the grain production increases, under the same proportion, there will be more leftovers?"

Qin Feng said with a smile.

Yan Li understood, but he immediately spat in Qin Feng's direction: "Bah! Wouldn't those gentry and landlords take away more?"

Qin Feng frowned, praised him just now, but he couldn't turn the corner so quickly: "Tsk, don't worry about how much they take away, you first care about the remaining [-]% ​​of yourself, as long as these [-]% If you have enough to eat, at least you don’t have to borrow money every year, right?”

"And this is only the first step. The plan of the second part is to free the common people from the shackles of those lands."

"It's true that the land belongs to the squires, but as long as you don't bear the debts of the squires, there is no need to cultivate them for them. If you don't plant their land, you don't need to give them food. In this way, how much land you plant is your own , so that the people will naturally be rich."

Yan Li simply stopped the ax and stared at Qin Feng, thinking that Qin Feng was telling a fairy tale.

"Lord Qin, we have been here in Kunyu Mountain for many years in Heishanzhai. I'm afraid we know better than some stupid officials what is going on in the nearby counties."

"Take your Ninghai County as an example. There is only a little land suitable for farming, and there are all hills outside. I would like to ask, Master Qin didn't ask the farmers to cultivate the landlord's land, what kind of land did they ask them to plant? Go to the sky to plant ?"

Qin Feng chuckled and shook his head again and again: "No, no, no, I can't go to the sky, but I can come to the mountains..."

"I plan to reclaim this mountain into land in the next two years."

"You want to dig a mountain? Hahahahaha!"

Yan Li couldn't stop laughing wildly: "I've heard the story of Yugong Yishan. Even I, a mountain bandit and an illiterate grassroots citizen, know that it's just a compliment for his resilience, perseverance, and perseverance. But I haven't heard of anyone I really want to imitate him and dig the mountain away!"

He raised his neck, waved his hand to the distance, and said: "Look at Kunyu Mountain, which stretches for thousands of miles and has countless peaks. There are so many mountains that even your eighteen generations of grandchildren will not be able to dig them all! Besides, the land dug out may not be suitable for farming!"

"Master Qin, you are too whimsical!"

"Also, it's even more unheard of for Mr. Qin to say that he wants to increase the yield per mu. Since ancient times, there has been a fixed amount of grain per mu! The harvest depends entirely on God's will. If the weather is good, the harvest will be more, and the drought and flood will be uneven. The harvest is less!"

"This farmer depends on the sky for his food. You, a mortal, still want to change the sky?"

"At first, I only thought you were a dog official, but now I realized that I was wrong. It turns out that you, Mr. Qin, are not only a dog official, but also a stupid official, a stupid official! You, the county magistrate, must have been donated to you by your ancestors, right? "

Yan Li sneered, one sentence after another.

Qin Feng was even happier.

At least, he managed to grab Yan Li's attention.

When it comes to lobbying, you are not afraid of the other party's rebuttal, but you are afraid that the other party will ignore it.

This is the same as selling things. When the other party asks a question, it means that they have doubts about what you are selling. On a deeper level, it means that the other party has a demand for what you are selling.

He was just refuting, hoping to solve his doubts.

This Yan Li's words are not pleasant, but Qin Feng knows that he wants Qin Feng to help solve the two problems of increasing the yield per mu and reclaiming the land, even though he is not a farmer in Ninghai County.

As long as Qin Feng can solve it successfully, he can learn from Qin Feng's experience and return to his hometown to help his father and fellow villagers. In this way, what kind of bandit is he?
He comes from the future, so he naturally has a way to increase the yield per mu, and also has a way to reclaim the mountains into land.

But these advanced things, the ancients may not be able to understand just the words, they must be done.

Qin Feng felt that it was time, so he walked up to Yan Li with a smile behind his back, and said, "Yan Li, what I say, I can definitely do. If you don't believe it, why don't we make a bet?"

"What bet?" Yan Li asked.

Qin Feng said leisurely: "It will take two years for me to complete all the plans. I know that you must be willing to work for me for two years, but you are definitely not willing."

"Let's bet for three months."

"Within three months, I will tell you to see the increase in mu yield with your own eyes. If I did it, you will lose. If you can't, you will win."

It has to be said that Qin Feng's words were all suppressed by Yan Li's concerns.

He failed to kill Qin Feng, since just now he has been thinking about how to rescue his brother from prison and escape from Ninghai County.

He didn't want to keep working for the "dog official" in his heart.

but……

Three months is not a long time.

And as long as the meals can keep up, you can also restore your body to its best state!
He narrowed his eyes: "Then what do you say about winning or losing?"

Qin Feng smiled, he knew that his plan had come to fruition!

"If after three months, I lose, I will pardon you and your brothers in prison, and you will be released immediately. You can go wherever you want. I will never stop you, and I will write a pardon for you." certificate!"

"But if I win, you and your brothers will have to help me complete the two-year plan. How about it?"

Yan Li was worried about fraud, so he thought over what Qin Feng said, but he couldn't find anything wrong with it.

Win or lose, it doesn't seem to be doing him or his brother any harm.

Because... Prisoners like them will be executed sooner or later without accident!

And if you agree to Qin Feng, even if you lose after three months, everyone will live for two more years!
Fools know how to choose!
