What was the private ownership of land in the Qin Dynasty? Is the land really private?

The private ownership of land in Qin dynasty recognized the privatization of land. But land is not equal to private ownership. Because farmers still need to pay taxes to the state. In this way, in fact, the land belongs to whoever pays taxes. In that case, the land system of the Qin Dynasty was actually state-owned land. In fact, the Qin Dynasty used such a private land system to encourage farming, promote farmers' farming, and support the expenses of the Qin Dynasty's foreign war. Such a land system is indeed conducive to the growth of national tax revenue.

There are two main systems related to land system in Qin Dynasty. The first is the farming strategy adopted after Shang Yang's political reform. Because at that time, the Qin dynasty needed to be strong quickly to deal with the wars between countries during the Warring States period. In the event of war, not only human resources are important, but also food, taxes and so on. The farming strategy put forward by Shang Yang's political reform stimulated farming, increased national tax revenue, and provided an economic basis for the annexation war of Qin State. Internal economic stability is also conducive to stabilizing people's hearts.

After Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, was it confirmed? Is it a real field? System. Recognize the privatization of land. Encourage farmers to cultivate and the landlord class to annex land. Of course, both breeding and merger ultimately need to pay taxes to the state. The biggest feature of this system is that the local main class can be promoted and knighted after paying enough taxes. Qin Shihuang also encouraged Niu Geng to use Niu Geng to develop productive forces through this system. At the same time, it also rewards those who work hard and reduces taxes and corvee.

Under such a system, the Qin Dynasty really developed rapidly. Shang Yang's political reform made the Qin Dynasty gradually rise from seven countries, and finally unified the six countries, becoming the first unified country in China. After Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, this land privatization system promoted the popularization of Niu Geng and expanded the productive forces. If Qin Shihuang hadn't exploited ordinary people excessively, the Qin Dynasty would have become a long-lived dynasty if it had developed under such an economic system.
