Chapter 46: Chapter 46 Agricultural Reform
Lord Polly, do you mean that we can enjoy the right to use fixed land in the future? No need to pay rent anymore? a mayor asked cautiously.
He was not sure and couldn't even believe it was true!
Even though the announcement was so beneficial to them, they didn't even dare to cheer for it.
The people around were also surprisingly quiet, not daring to make any sound, as if any noise would alert the sudden arrival of the creature and cause it to fly away.
Yes, and it is arable land. I am not asking you to open up wasteland in the forest or mountains.
Even if some areas have a large population, we will replace them with ponds or larger uncultivated areas according to a certain ratio and give them to you.
We can rent it, but we won't charge you any fees. You don't even have to hand over part of your food. It's completely free.
Polly said with a faint smile.
The expression with which they were treated was entirely different from that with which the landlords and nobles were treated.
Even so, they still couldn't believe it was true.
Father, if they don't dare to believe it for the time being, just continue. Su Lian responded at the right time.
One of the purposes of his coming here was to take over some words at a critical moment and leave enough impression in the minds of the people.
Yeah. Polly nodded, then looked at the nobles and manor owners: Don't look so bad. After all, we have been working together for so many years, so I will definitely not leave you completely without anything to do.
Lord Polly, please speak. Earl Virginia said, suppressing his anger but not daring to explode.
He was the largest noble in the Saint Peter Territory, and his ancestors also had a large fiefdom. However, due to some reasons, the fiefdom was reduced later, and finally a larger area was granted to Ersha, and his earldom became part of the prince's territory.
Although he was independent within his territory, he originally rented a lot of land to maintain his status.
Now, with just one reform, the only land he can use is the fiefdom that has been reduced a little.
Considering that the land is given to the citizens of the territory unconditionally, you will not have any other use for it except farming, it is indeed a bit of a waste.
So now you have a choice.
We will not interfere with those who want to farm their own land, but if you give us the right to use it, we will cultivate your land and pay you the international price every year based on the expected grain production of the land, that is, the amount of wheat.
That is to say, even if you don't farm, you can still get enough money to buy food.
As for all the original manor owners, you already have enough connections and economic foundation, and you probably won't continue to rent land to them for you to cultivate. In the future, we will open up the magic car transportation rights to you, so that you can have more favorable conditions to operate other trades.
It's not Peter's Holy Territory, but the national magic vehicle transportation authority!
Polly's tone gradually became excited!
The village chief, town mayor, and civilians, who originally had expressions of disbelief, finally began to gradually reveal joy, because this seemed to be true!
The manor owners and nobles were also shocked at first, and then their expressions of anger and dissatisfaction gradually turned into surprise!
Why!?
Because they are no longer oppressed civilians, but citizens enjoying basic rights!
As for the manors and nobles who were originally wealthy and well-connected, they could be said to have lost a lot of benefits in the Saint Territory of Peter. However, Prince Ersha, who had the right to operate the magic vehicles throughout the country, gave them the green light. How could others compete with them in other trades? ?
from now on!
All citizens of Peter's Holy Territory will have their basic food needs met, and you can do more profitable or meaningful work.
You can build new factories, do higher-yield farming in the crop areas we are responsible for, and even work in new factories! We will even improve the treatment of the territory's troops in the future, so you can still get high returns even if you join the army.
And all the estate owners in Peter's Holy Territory, as long as you continue to pay taxes to us, we will continue to provide you with the convenience of magic car transportation throughout the country.
Liberate all citizens' labor and open up economic development power!
Let's make Peter's Holy Territory the most harmonious and richest place in the entire Avisu Kingdom!
Polly's last words were shouted out in the form of a loud cheer!
The whole audience was silent!
Shocked silence!
Everything in front of me was actually true, everything Polly announced was true!
Now, aren't you going to cheer? Everyone. Su Lian reminded.
Everyone looked at Su Lian, then at Polly and Ersha who were smiling and nodding.
oh--!!!
I don't know who shouted first!
Long live Prince Ersha!
Long live Lord Polly! Long live Lord Liandel!
That's great! Ohhhhhhhh!!!
Everyone was shouting, and the sound of their shouting spread throughout the entire Holy City of Peter. Even the soldiers patrolling on the city walls could hear it clearly!
That is the voice of all the people, of the citizens of Saint Peter!
Everyone is a beneficiary!
Uka——!
Then someone shouted again.
The loud shouts that were supposed to be used by the military were also shouted by them at this time, when the emotions were so high and exciting that they could not be any higher!
The Su Lian family, along with their grandchildren, looked at them shouting with a smile, and had no intention of disturbing them at all.
Their goal is simple: to satisfy everyone.
They hold the national magic train transportation rights and have the capital!
At this time, perhaps only Nalin in the carriage was out of tune with them.
Looking at the sea of people cheering and leaping for joy around her, she was certain that she was not dreaming either, as she was witnessing the beginning of an incredible reform.
She looked at Su Lian on the stage again. He was looking at everyone with a faint smile, and everything seemed to be under his control.
At this moment, she is fully aware.
Su Lian is definitely not an ordinary twelve-year-old noble!
Just as Su Lian once said to Ersha and the others, those who achieve great things are those who show their extraordinary side from a young age.
This is exactly what Su Lian is showing at this moment!
a long time.
Everyone's emotions gradually calmed down, and the surrounding people completely surrounded the streets on all four sides of the square.
They were called here by other residents who were telling others about the matter. At the same time, what was just announced here will also be quickly reported to the entire city!
Is everyone almost calmed down? Then let's continue. Ersha said with a faint smile.
Oh? Anything else?
Don't be surprised, citizens of the strongest territory in the future, my father still has a lot of documents in his hands. Su Lian also said.
Everyone immediately fell silent, fearing that they would miss what Polly would announce next.
Polly smiled faintly at this.
After the agricultural reforms, there will definitely be big changes in the economy. I believe you will have plenty of money to save by then.
Then I will now announce three more things.
Things related to the economy.
