During the Civil War against the GMD, when Mao first entered regions he wanted to "convert" to communism, he claimed total authority over the people there. He then took the land and redistributed it fairly so that everyone had an equal share. He showed the peasants that communism was far better for them than Jiangs corrupt regime where all the officials at the top kept everything for themselves. As well as this Mao made sure that all the food that was produced by the peasants was equally distributed, again, and perhaps most importantly he made sure that the army behaved itself and didn't plunder and rape everything in sight as Jiangs did. As a result, he built up a good reputation for himself and the peasants, although they might not have completely understood communism, saw that he was far better than the current government under Jiang.
Later on he implemented lots of reforms too...
