It is a form of feudal relations of production that emerged with the feudal mode of production since the Warring States Period. This system lasted for more than 2,000 years from the Warring States to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and developed and changed continuously during these two thousand years. It has both commonness and particularity with the feudal production relations of other countries.
Extended data:
During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, the tenancy relationship continued to develop. The household registration in Song Dynasty was clearly registered as the main household and the main guest, and the main guest was the owner who had no land and rented the landlord's land. This division of household registration shows the universality of tenancy relationship. At this time, the land or farmland of the government and people is leased to customers. Big landlords in Sichuan often have hundreds of thousands of customers.
In the Song Dynasty, the organization of Guanzhuang was further tightened. In the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, "Song Yao Yao Ji Zi Real Goods" recorded that five hectares of land were designated as a village, five households were called to protect each other, and one person was pushed first to cultivate the five hectares of land. Or a local third-class household or above is the supervisor. The head of the household or the supervisor is the agent of the landlord or feudal government to supervise the tenant.
