If you want to accomplish something, blind execution will often result in failure, which requires that you must make necessary preparations before acting.

Similarly, if you want to successfully implement the land grant system in the land of Yueyang, then Gongsun Yang, the specific executor, must know how much land there is under the rule.

A clever woman cannot cook without rice. She can cook as much rice as she has. Likewise, only enough land can complete this land granting system.

Therefore, in order to keep things in mind, Gongsun Yang often traveled to the fields in various villages in Yueyang, and the Li Shu people living here often encountered the following scenes:

Next to a piece of land where many people gathered, a figure happened to slowly walk by.

Turning his head and looking around, looking at the group of people in front of him, especially after seeing those familiar faces, this man already had a doubt in his heart.

"What are you guys looking at here?"

The curiosity in his heart caused the man to slowly stop his steps and look towards the crowd more and more frequently.

When the curiosity in his heart could no longer be suppressed, the man walked straight towards the crowd and squeezed in with all his strength.

"Don't crowd, don't crowd."

"Where is that guy squeezing in here?"

"I'm almost squeezed to death."

…

Amidst the commotion and the roar of curses and complaints, this man finally pushed his way to the front.

Standing silently looking at the figure in front of him, directing many people to walk back and forth among the fields in front of him, and sometimes even writing and drawing on the bamboo slips with a pen, another question arose in this man's mind

.

What are these people doing?

After looking around for a few times, the man quickly locked onto a man who had always been quite knowledgeable in the village, and then slowly walked to his side with light steps.

"What are you doing?"

The person who was also staring silently in front of him heard the sudden inquiry in his ears, and immediately felt a little unhappy in his heart.

He looked in the direction where the sound came from, and when he saw that it was someone he knew in the past, the unhappiness that was about to come out was immediately suppressed.

"Don't you see? This is measuring the land."

"What's the point of measuring the land properly?"

The answers from others not only failed to dispel the doubts in this man's mind, but actually made him even more puzzled.

It is obvious that the public land in our hometown has long been deserted, and most people cultivate their own farmland. Why do we need to measure the land again at this time?

"Others may not know the reason for measuring the land, but I have heard some rumors."

Seeing the confusion on this man's face, the displeasure in the man standing next to him immediately disappeared, replaced by a look of complacency on his face.

"Quick, quick, tell me."

After looking at the busy clerk in front of me, and then at the curious face, the person next to me said in a deep voice: "Come here, I'll talk to you."

"good."

Word of mouth spread, and the reason why Gongsun Yang measured the land was spread, and as he listened, a smile appeared on the originally curious face.

Gradually, the smile became brighter and brighter, and finally turned into an incredible expression.

"Are you telling the truth?"
