Ancient immigrants: voluntary or forced?

China has been an agricultural country since ancient times, and people's sense of security has always been attached to the land. I used to buy fields as soon as I had money. Now, it's time to buy a house as soon as you have money.

However, many times, even if you buy a house and a field, you don't feel safe. If I bought a field before, I would be forced to donate it by the court, so I had to give up my family wealth and move to a place where birds don't shit and start over.

Now that I have bought a house, I will be forcibly removed by the developer. When you wake up, you will find yourself sleeping beside the ruins. * * * There are many reasons for forced relocation, including reclamation in response to the border war, relocation of victims for disaster relief, and occasional relocation for regional economic balance, which cannot be generalized.

In the Western Han Dynasty, the most obvious compulsory nature was that powerful nobles moved to guard the mausoleum. Of course, no matter how awesome the emperor is, he doesn't need so many people to guard the mausoleum. The general idea is to build a new satellite city where his cemetery is located, so that these people can incubate local real estate.

Immigrants originally came from Liu Jing's suggestion to Gaozu. Liu Jing came back from the Huns, inspected the situation and said: Although your majesty has made Guanzhong its capital, the population is actually not rich.

Hu Guan is near the north and there are six countries in the east. When the weather changed, your majesty failed to rest in peace. "May your majesty move, bend, jing, yan, zhao, han, wei, heroes, and in the guanzhong.

Nothing, you can prepare for Hu, the governors have changed, and you can also cut eastward. This is the art of being strong and weak. According to his suggestion, he moved more than 100,000 powerful family members to Chang 'an to break the regional ties of these families and strengthen control. This is the real intention.

It is conceivable that those who are most keen on weakening local power and strengthening imperial rule must be very aware of this practice. In April of the second year of Jianyuan, he just started his own mausoleum Maoling project and has moved.

The county town is stronger than Maoling. That year, I was eighteen. In the summer of the third year of Yuanshuo, 100,000 people were recruited to move to Shuofang, and they also moved to Maoling, a hero of the county, with more than 3 million property.

That year, Liu Che was thirty years old. In the spring of the first year of Taishi, he moved to Maoling. That year, Liu Che was 6 1 year old. (Young and middle-aged Emperor Wu of Hanwu)

The experience of the protagonist Guo Jie may help us understand this migration order. In Yuan Shuo's three-year immigration order, Guo solved the family poverty, had no official position, and his property could not meet the standard of forced relocation. However, because of his great reputation, local officials were a little worried and simply put him on the list of forced relocation.

General Wei Qing said to Emperor Wu: "Guo solved the poverty of his family and failed to meet the standard of migration." Emperor Wu said coldly: "Guo Jie is a civilian, and his skill is great enough to instruct the general to intercede, which shows that his family is not poor!" Guo Jie also had to move to Maoling.

When Guo Jie left, people spent more than one million yuan to see him off. Evaluating the quality of this forced relocation order depends entirely on which side you are on. The local administrative agencies in Han Dynasty were county, county, township and town in turn.
