Zhang Feng really didn't expect this.
There was actually such a way to open up a fertile wasteland stretching from the moat of Chang 'an City to the Barren Mountain Pass?
How large was the area?
Zhang Feng didn't know.
Anyway, it would take an hour to go from the gate of Chang 'an City to the sentry post of the Barren Mountain Pass by carriage. Zhang Feng estimated that if he went in a straight line, it would be about two or three kilometers.
Two or three kilometers!
How large was the area?
Such a large piece of land was a strategic location?
Then, this Xiao Mountain …
Zhang Feng suddenly had a feeling of going to Tesco. He seemed to understand something at this time. .
This Xiao Mountain originally belonged to the Zhongnan Mountains, and it also belonged to the Qinling Mountains.
There were two main peaks in Xiao Mountain, and the Academy was built on a large area between the two main peaks, which was like a gold ingot.
Such a terrain.
It was not a strategic place, was it?
Moreover, now he was here, plus the firearms and other new weapons were in the research and development. Once this thing came out, how could there be any war in Chang 'an City, which belonged to the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty?
Wasn't this nonsense?
Such a fertile land was empty. How could it be burned?
But looking at the long river of history, Zhang Feng felt that it was unfair at this time, but in fact, he just felt unhappy.
Since it was the battlefield of the city gate, there had been many ghosts since ancient times …
Although Zhang Feng didn't believe in ghosts and gods, if he didn't believe in them, how could he explain his situation?
Seeing this, Li Shimin asked, "Fengzi, are you sure you have asked someone to buy it?"
Zhang Feng said hesitantly, "Well, you can say that. By the way, it's okay if I can't buy this land. Niu Weili will naturally arrange it for me. Go, go, go, let's not talk about it. Let's do the experiment."
When Li Shimin saw Zhang Feng's current appearance, he found it somewhat funny and said, "Although the area around the city gate is indeed not for sale, if you really want to buy it, you can walk ten thousand steps out of the city and use your connections."
Zhang Feng sighed and said, "Forget it, forget it. My luck is not good. The fat meat that caught my eye belongs to the emperor. Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go to the teaching building and attend today's open experimental class."
While speaking, Zhang Feng pulled Li Shimin towards the door.
Just as he walked out of the villa, Zhang Feng ran into the old village chief and several others who had heard the news.
As soon as they met, the old village head directly asked, "Feng Zi, what's the matter? I just heard that you were looking for us in a hurry."
When Zhang Feng saw this, he instantly felt a headache coming on.
He glanced at Li Shimin and hurriedly said, "Lao Li, you guys go ahead and wait. I'll be right there, okay?"
Li Shimin still did not know what Zhang Feng wanted to do.
He looked at Zhang Feng with a smile that was not a smile, and then slowly left with the others.
In fact, there was no need to hide this matter.
The key point was that it was really a bit embarrassing.
After Li Shimin left, Zhang Feng said, "Old village chief, do you have any fields in your family?"
This time, the few people were dumbfounded.
The old village chief and the others looked at each other, and then looked at Zhang Feng with some confusion and said, "Just because of this?"
"We do have some fields in our family, but what do you mean by this?"
When Zhang Feng heard this, he nodded his head.
In this era, there were two kinds of fields: teaching fields and perpetual fields. Normally, a family like the old village chief had about 100 mu of land, and this 100 mu of land was nothing much. Only a few mu of land could be cultivated.
After the person who divided the fields came over to register them, the slope, wasteland, or even a mountain in the chaotic world were basically hundreds of mu of land. These were all considered fields.
In addition, the people in this era basically had a stable harvest, and the fields were barren. In addition, the land was vast and sparsely populated. Therefore, the government was considered generous and basically waved their hands.
They directly had 100 mu of land.
However …
Moreover, these fields were all carefully selected.
The teaching fields were never divided into rivers or lakes. Basically, when the government came, if they saw that you were happy, they would give you a good piece of land. If you were unhappy, even the Wei Shui River could be your family's.
Only the thin 20 mu of perpetual fields could be considered a little bit of land that could be cultivated. However, by the time you cleared the trees and weeds in the land, it would basically be a few years later.
Therefore, in this era, although the land was vast and sparsely populated, and with the equal-field system, most ordinary people still did not have enough to eat. They had to go to those big families to work to make ends meet.
Although the equal-field system had its advantages, the disadvantages were also obvious. Slaves and women would never be given any land. Only men who were 18 years old and men who were 21 years old could be allocated land.
And if the head of the family already had a fief, he would basically only be given 20 mu of perpetual fields …
The system of the Tang Dynasty was really too chaotic.
In addition, the land was barren and the years of war. Basically, although there were many fields, ordinary people still did not have enough to eat. Most people could not even afford to buy seeds.
The old village chief was better. Although he was already over 70 years old, and the teaching fields had been taken back.
However, he had many sons, and with good luck, the fields that were allocated were basically some good ones. His family would not starve. However, Old He and the others were miserable.
Old He was originally a slave, and he only had two mu of land as a token. Most of the land was basically rented from those big families.
Therefore, all year round, he could only muddle through with a full belly.
At this time, when they heard Zhang Feng's question, everyone scratched their heads in confusion.
They looked at Zhang Feng with a dumbfounded expression.
After understanding the situation, Zhang Feng waved his hand and said, "Old village chief, quickly go to the food factory and the paper mill and take out some money. Then go to Niu Weili, the county magistrate, and take out as much as you can."
Hearing this, the old village chief's expression changed instantly. He thought that Zhang Feng was going to squander. He said, "Fengzi, you can't do this! Although you have a noble title, you can't afford this kind of torment. You are not married yet, you don't dare to … "
Zhang Feng hurriedly interrupted the old village chief and said, "That's not what I mean. What I mean is, quickly take the money and buy as much land as you can!"
"…"
