11 墾令:
重刑而連其罪,則褊急之民不鬥,很剛之民不訟,怠惰之民不游,費資之民不作,巧諛惡心之民無變也。五民者不生於境內,則草必墾矣
Order to Cultivate Waste...:
If penalties are made heavy and relations are involved in the punishments, petty and irascible people will not quarrel, intractable and stubborn people will not litigate, slothful and lazy people will not idle, those who waste their substance will not thrive, and those of evil heart, given to flattery, will bring about no change. If these five kinds of people do not appear within the territory, then it is certain waste lands will be brought under cultivation.
