The Road to the Imperial Examination for Poor Children"

196-200

Jin An and Zhong Jinhua came over.
　　At this moment, the father and son looked particularly energetic, and their eyes were full of eagerness to try.
　　Lin Yuanqiu naturally knew why his father-in-law and two brothers-in-law were so excited.
　　Because this afternoon, he told his father-in-law that he was going to the military camp on the outskirts of the city tomorrow.
　　As early as on the way from the capital, Lin Yuanqiu had roughly discussed the future arrangements for the military camp with his father-in-law.
　　Although he was in charge of more than 2,000 soldiers and guards, Lin Yuanqiu definitely needed his father-in-law to help him familiarize himself with many matters in the camp.
　　Different from military camps, local barracks do not have officer positions such as school captains and captains, but only soldiers such as corps commanders and hundred commanders.
　　As the governor of the state, Lin Yuanqiu had the right to send people to manage the affairs of the camp. Now that he has taken over the military power, he naturally does not want to only control the surface.
　　So Lin Yuanqiu decided to let his father-in-law and two uncles take care of the affairs of the camp for him.
　　It's not that Lin Yuanqiu values ​​​​his own rights, but that in this frontier area, the importance of military guards is self-evident. This is the existence that can ensure the peace of one party in the event of a conflict.
　　As for Zhong Rong, his more than ten years in the camp had already become a habit in his life.
　　Originally Zhong Rong thought that he would never have the chance to deal with the soldiers and guards in this life, but he did not expect that his son-in-law would give him such an opportunity again, and it was needless to say that he was happy in his heart.
　　Back to business.
　　After his father-in-law and uncles sat down, Lin Yuanqiu didn't waste any time and directly talked about the big relocation plan.
　　Regarding this unheard-of practice, whether it was Lao Lintou, Lin Dazhu and the others, or the Zhong family and his son, after hearing about it, it was difficult to recover for a while.
　　What about moving all the villagers from the villages under the jurisdiction of Yongning Prefecture to the city and building unified housing for them? Isn't this a joke?
　　Old Lintou couldn't help but speak. As someone who has been digging in the fields for most of his life, he really knows the importance of land.
　　"Yuanqiu, if we move all the villagers to the city, what will happen to their land? How will the villagers make a living without their land? By the way, there are also their houses. How about just abandoning them all?"
　　What Lao Lintou hasn't said yet is that relocating the whole family with the loss of land and house is almost like fleeing. Who would be happy about it?
　　When Lin Dazhu heard what his father said, it was exactly what he was thinking, and he couldn't help but said, "Although nine out of ten country people say that the city is good, and they all look forward to living in the city, they have to leave their fields." I don't think anyone would be willing to leave the house and the house behind. Without the land, what can the family eat? According to my uncle, the relocation may not be that easy." "Yes, yes, the villagers will eat without the land
　　. What, my second uncle also thinks this is difficult to accomplish." Lin Erzhu had the same view.
　　As for Lin Yuanfeng, Lin Yuansong, as well as Lin Yuanhuai and Lin Yuanbai, they naturally felt that what I and my father (uncle and uncle) said was reasonable. At this moment, several people couldn't understand how the fifth brother, who had always been extremely smart, could come up with such a bad idea.
　　Zhong Rong also nodded, including the two brothers Zhong Jinan and Zhong Jinhua.
　　Although they don't understand farming, they can't guess what the farmers are thinking. They can save people by themselves, but if anyone asks them to abandon their fields and houses and move away from their hometowns like this, they will definitely not do it. It doesn't matter if you live in the city. If you don't have the ability to support your family reliably, then the whole family will starve.
　　Therefore, it is absolutely certain that the son-in-law's move will attract criticism from the people.
　　Lin Yuanqiu looked at Lin Sanzhu, who had remained silent, and asked with a smile, "Dad, what do you think of my son's plan?" What else could he think of it? Of course it was a bad idea
　　.
　　However, Lin Sanzhu knew that his dog was not a fool and could not even notice such an obvious disadvantage. Therefore, this relocation must not be what they thought it was.
　　That's why Lin Sanzhu only said one sentence, "Father believes that Yuan Qiu is not a stupid person!"
　　Lin Yuanqiu felt warm in his heart when he heard this sentence. His father still trusted him unconditionally as always.
　　Lin Yuanqiu had already considered what Old Lintou said. Besides, food was the main tax. How could he let the villagers give up farming.
　　"Master, if my grandson asks the villagers to relocate, they will not lose their fields and houses. The villagers can still live in the village on weekdays and farm and grow vegetables without delay. What my grandson is doing is to let them have one more person in the city. This is a place to live, so that when the farm is off, or if the family plans to make a living in the city, they can live here. Especially in winter, when the villagers all live in the city, they can also avoid the evil deeds of the mountain warriors."
