I WILL MARK BRAINIEST ASAP 100 POINTS Question 3 You’ve just received a request to settle a dispute between some peasants and nobles in England. It seems the peasants want to be paid for their work. The nobles, on the other hand, think things are getting out of control. Your first step is to read some evidence from a guy named Jean Froissart. He’s a Frenchman, but he’s been to England and seen what’s going on first hand. Here is his take on the problem: It is customary in England, as in several other countries, for the nobility to have great privileges over the commonalty, whom they keep in bondage; that is to say, they are bound by law and custom to plough the lands of gentleman, to harvest the grain, to carry it home to the barn, to thrash and winnow it: they are also bound to harvest the hay and carry it home.

This they would not longer bear, but had determined to be free, and if they laboured or did any other works for their lords, they would be paid for it. [Source: Jean Froissart, Chronicles (The Peasant Revolt)] After reading this evidence, you note that the peasants do a lot of work for the nobles. Still, Froissart calls the peasants “the evil-disposed.” But why does he think they want to do evil? You decide to pay England a visit and ask both sides a few questions. Here is how your conversation goes: You: Is it really true that you don’t get paid at all right now? Peasants: Yeah. It’s part of the old system of feudalism.

Peasants' Revolt was the first great popular rebellion in English history. Its immediate cause was the imposition of the unpopular poll tax of 1381, which brought to a head the economic discontent that had been growing. The rebels wanted a reduction in taxation, an end to the system of unfree labor, as well as the removal of the King's senior officials and law courts.
