The land revolution in the Pune area was unexpectedly smooth and fast. The ordinary soldiers were allocated two acres of land, the squad leader three acres, the squadron leader four acres, the thousand leader five acres, and the ten thousand leader ten acres.
It seems that the land allocated is not much, but the high yield of grain in the Biadong subcontinent is enough to feed a family of several people.
Coupled with the professional subsidy, the junior professional can get one more mu, the intermediate professional can get 2 mu, the senior professional can get three mu, and the professional (big swordsman level) will be directly divided into six mu, and the division-level professional will be divided into 15 mu of land. , Master-level professionals 30 acres of land, mentor-level powerhouses directly conferred titles.
For a time, the entire Pune region cheered continuously.
However, these fields are protected by the Merlot Constitution. Even if the soldier's entire family dies, it cannot be annexed and can only be taken into the state, which can ensure the integrity of the fields to the greatest extent.
Of course, in an emergency, soldiers in urgent need of money can also use the field to apply for a mortgage from the City Hall.
"Hey, brother, are you telling the truth?"
A soldier had just returned home from a routine patrol when he heard his eldest brother and his family were talking about it.
Thelma disarmed with the assistance of his wife. He and his elder brother both served in the city defense army. In fact, both brothers were refugees. Later, they joined the refugee army and stayed in the city defense army because of their outstanding performance.
It is precisely because of the errand of the city defense army that they have gained a firm foothold in the main city of Pune.
"It's true, I just got the news from the army. You should come back after calculating the time. I will tell you as soon as possible. If you don't believe it, you will know when you go to the military camp tomorrow." Turk said excitedly.
Turk is just an ordinary veteran and has not become a professional, but Thelma is different. He became a junior swordsman two years ago, and he is preparing to attack the intermediate swordsman in the past two years. Coupled with the position of the team captain, he can do it in one breath. Allotted to four acres of land.
Thelma raised her mouth slightly and said, "I'm already an intermediate swordsman."
"Haha, that's even better." Turk was even more excited. Although his younger brother had a lot more shares than him, he could see that his brother had a better life. Turk was also happy from the bottom of his heart.
"It seems that we are going to work hard in the future." Thelma, who has already taken the position of the team leader, sees further. Now that the land has been divided, and if you want to completely grasp the land, you must not let the Maxim Chamber of Commerce defeat East Asia. General Company.
"Yes, I heard that the first wave of conscription has begun, and recruits can also be allocated an acre, and as long as they complete their service, they can get another acre of land." Turk's eyes were on how to allocate an extra acre of land.
bang bang...
Thelma was just about to continue talking when the door was knocked on. Thelma's wife hurried to open the door, and then came in with a strange expression.
Thelma looked over suspiciously, just in time to see Aunt Lima with her newly grown child, and other neighbors also came with their young laborers.
"Who are you?" Thelma expected, but was still very surprised.
The temptation of fields for ordinary civilians is so great.
"Captain Thelma, I want our children to join the army. I hope you can take them to the military camp tomorrow." Aunt Lima said nervously.
Thelma smiled slightly and said, "Aunt Lima, you should call me Thelma! We have been neighbors for so long, aren't you making fun of me?"
"It's not that I don't want to. You should think about it clearly. Once your child joins the army, given the current situation, he will soon enter the battlefield, and your child may die."
When Thelma said the last sentence, her face was unprecedentedly solemn.
"We are naturally clear, but the benefits provided by Dongyapu Company are very good. In addition to the benefits of being a soldier, now we also take back the fields of the nobles and give them to all the people. Originally, we planted them for the nobles. Land, after a year of hard work, we can only barely make a living. Yesterday, someone at the city hall helped us forget it. If we can wrap up all of the 50 acres of land that our family helps the nobleman to take care of, we will pay every acre every year. If I produce 5,000 catties of grain, I can produce 250,000 catties of grain in a year. In addition to turning in 80% of the grain, which is 200,000 catties, the remaining 50,000 catties are my own." Lima The more she talked, the more excited she became.
"Yes, yes!"
The neighbors behind Aunt Lima also agreed.
The Principality of Prince is not interested in slaves. The aristocrats here have already learned their skills. They lease the land to the people for farming. Every year, regardless of whether the harvest is good or not, the aristocrats will take 95% of the land. food.
Aunt Lima's family has a total of thirteen members. They have worked hard for a year from beginning to end. They can only receive more than 12,000 catties of grain. In addition, they have to save seeds, and the food they are getting is only about 10,000 catties.
If one person calculates three catties of grain a day, they need thirty-nine catties of grain a day, and more than 14,000 catties of grain a year, so most of the time, they are barely able to eat. For the fertilizers produced by the company, in the past few years, they could only harvest five or six thousand catties of grain a year at most, and from time to time they had to hang bark and dig grass roots to eat.
"What, Dongyapu company is so generous." Thelma was taken aback by the numbers that Aunt Lima said.
In the future, Aunt Lima will not only be able to eat enough for the whole family, but will also be able to exchange the extra grain for cloth, and even occasionally eat meat.
"We don't know the big reason, but we know that if we want to truly live a good life, we have to rely on our own hands to protect them. The officials of the city hall said that it doesn't matter if they are defeated by Dongyapu Company, it's a big deal to change places. We are doing business, but we have to return to the hands of that hateful noble before we have warmed up the fields, and we will return to the original hard life." Aunt Lima said excitedly.
After being silent for a while, Thelma said: "Okay, I understand, tomorrow I will take them to the military camp to answer the call, but I explained in advance that the war between East Asia and the Maxim Chamber of Commerce is very large, and we can die a lot. Man, your family is likely to be gone forever."
When Aunt Lima heard this, she was also silent for a while, she didn't speak, and she was obviously caught in a ideological struggle.
The young man beside Aunt Lima said with a firm face: "Brother Thelma, we have grown up, and we should do our part for the family. Since Dongyapu Company took over the main city of Pune, the security in the city has been It's also a lot better. No more nobles go out to the outer city to do bad things, and no nobles dare to run wild in the outer city. Do you remember Xi Ya? She was just going out to help her parents deliver lunch, and she was killed by two noble young masters on horseback. "
