Chapter 127: Putting Grain (Part 2)(1/2)
Chapter 127: Release of Grain (Part 2)
Yongchang County. Temporary Shuhou Mansion
A man who already owns East and West Yizhou was sitting behind the table. In front of him, there were actual household registration test accounts of several counties in Xiyizhou.
"It's really a mess. More than half of the fields in Xiyizhou are deserted and no one cultivates them, and most of them are fertile fertile land..." Then he threw away a volume and Wang Hongyi held his forehead with his hands, feeling that the task was arduous.
In a few months, I am afraid that even winter wheat will not have time to sow.
The biggest tragedy in Yizhou in the East and West was that the Shilong Festival rebelled for decades ago, swept across Shu. The court sent a large army to encircle and suppress it, killing hundreds of miles, and nine out of ten families were empty.
Shu is depressed for hundreds of miles, with people completely destroyed. The land of essence is almost the same as wasteland. Only near the city can some villages with people still exist.
There are only 700,000 people in the entire East Yizhou. According to statistics from Xiyizhou, there are 300,000 people. Of course, these populations refer to Han people and have household registration, which is considered the basic national tax population on the registration.
Of course, the actual population is not only that, and does not include the minor children of the household head and the slaves and tenants who have a large number of affiliated relationships.
In addition, most tenants are hidden and falsely reported by the master's family.
But even so, we can see the tragic chaos back then.
Longjian has a small population, and with Hanzhong, it is estimated that there are only 300,000 people. This leads to the fact that there are too many places and few people, which is also the focus of the next step of work.
Shu is rich in products, including brocade, monosilicon, hemp, sugar, wine and paper.
Moreover, the large amount of copper is produced in Shu, and the country of Tianfu is not a hypothesis.
However, once peace is restored in Shuzhong, a large amount of materials can be produced immediately. Not to mention, the grain is more than enough to be self-sufficient and can be transported.
The most useful thing in troubled times is not gold, silver and wealth, land and houses, but food.
Wang Hongyi has a clear understanding of this. If he wants to work hard to resume production, he can accumulate capital to dominate the world. Of course, he still needs population.
"Come!" He raised his head and called out.
"Lord, what are you asking?" Hearing the voice, he walked into someone from outside, faced him, and said respectfully.
"I told you to cook more refreshing ginseng soup on the stove, bring one cup first, and prepare the rest for a while." After rubbing the temples, Wang Hongyi felt that he had not thought of going to bed too early in the past few days.
He didn't have much time to enter Xiyizhou, so he needed to deal with too many things. If he had to rest, he would have to wait for the cultivation and replenishment.
"No." The serving person stepped back.
Wang Hongyi looked through the accounts for a while, then saw that the account book was put down, he got up and walked to the window, and suddenly pushed open the wooden window. A breeze mixed with the smell of green grass came towards him, and the feeling of chest tightness was better.
Because there were many things to deal with in Xiyizhou, Wang Hongyi temporarily lived in Xu Jin Mansion in Yongchang County. Xu Jin Mansion had many illegal places, and there was not much time to build it. The various places looked very new, and now it was cheaper.
It is temporarily set as a study room, built on the water, and open the wooden window and faces a pool of clear water. The lotus flowers are in full bloom on the water, and you can even touch it by reaching it with your hands.
However, the place where the scenery looked pleasant at this time was a few days ago, it was a ghost place where the old servant of the mansion changed his expression when he heard it.
"What a pitiful person, everywhere." Thinking of the soul of the woman who was driven here a few days ago, Wang Hongyi sighed.
As soon as he finished speaking, a gentle female voice said behind him: "Actually, this woman had just fallen into the water before, and she had no grievances. She was just suffering from this disaster soon after her wedding, and she was unwilling to accept it. If she was saved one day earlier, she might be able to get rid of the suffering one day earlier. It is not a good thing for her."
"Su'er, are you here?" Hearing this, Wang Hongyi turned around and happened to see Su'er, smiling and standing next to the table with ginseng soup, looking at him.
After a few days, Su'er's weather changed drastically.
The purple dress is full of elegant and quiet expression on his face, and his skin is as frosty as snow, gently twitching Wang Hongyi's heartstrings. More importantly, the red and yellow aura in Wang Hongyi's eyes seemed to have changed a little.
According to the Dayan system, the queen is super, the first-rank of the four concubines (Guifei, Shufei, Defei, and Xianfei), and has the second-rank of the nine concubines, and there is no fixed quota below the nine concubines.
Wang Hongyi, the founding leader, was at the highest point, but it is actually equivalent to the third rank.
Song Xinyou enjoyed a rank of the fourth grade, while Zhao Wan was second, with the fifth grade, and Su'er was second, with the sixth grade, and this rank of the sixth grade, with the fixed luck every day.
If you are an ordinary person, you will change people subtly, which means you will move your qi and nourish your body. Generally speaking, there will be obvious changes in half a year.
For those who have practiced to the point where they can use their luck, this is the daily morality, which can transform the virtues and magic powers of success.
Putting the bowl of ginseng soup on the table, Su'er said to him: "It just happened to meet the servant who delivered ginseng soup on the road, so she brought it over directly. The two sisters will bring these things here too."
While speaking, Yu hand picked up the lid of the bowl, used a spoon, and gently stirred it a few times, and looked up: "Husband, drink it while it's hot. However, although this thing is to refresh the spirit, it should not be excessive. No matter how busy you are, you should pay attention to your schedule."
"It's just that I've been busy these few days, and it will be better in a while." Wang Hongyi walked over, sat down and took a few sips, looked at the beauty in front of him, and asked, "Su'er, is it a habit to live here? I heard that this mansion is very uneasy. Except for the small lake in front of the study, the other mansions are also not very peaceful. Have you ever noticed it now?"
"Even if there are some ghosts and monsters, if you have a husband here, they dare not approach this place. The husband is Shu Hou, and when it is prosperous, even the ghost immortals in the underworld dare not offend them, let alone these lonely ghosts?" Su'er smiled faintly and said.
"There are many lonely ghosts in Xiyizhou?" Hearing this, Wang Hongyi raised his eyebrows.
Su'er looked out the window and sighed: "It's not just too many, it's just a matter of countless. Over the years, there have been too many people who died in vain in Xiyizhou. Years of disasters are actually caused by the unjust soul."
"Can Su'er resolve it?" Wang Hongyi asked.
Su'er shook her head: "These resentment has become a climate. There are hundreds of ghost kings, some of which are the ancestor gods offered by the barbarians. In the underworld of Xiyizhou, they have become a separatist trend."
"This time I go to Quantai to recruit old subordinates, and the flags are 100,000 to kill Yan Luo." Wang Hongyi suddenly thought of this sentence, and of course he would not be foolish enough to read it. According to the experience on earth, these ghost kings each have millions of ghost soldiers (just time accumulation), which is difficult to deal with.
Some ghost kings have been awarded the title of ghost emperor because of this.
Ge Hong recorded the "Five Ghost Emperors" in "The Records of the Immortals on Yuanshi Shangzhen" and "The Book of Pillows". The article said: The ghost emperor in the east governs Taozhi Mountain, the ghost emperor in the south governs Luofu Mountain, the ghost emperor in the west governs Wanzhong Mountain, and the ghost emperor in the center governs Baodu Mountain; and the ghost emperor in the north governs Zhang Heng and Yangyun, governs Luofeng Mountain.
This is a detailed description of the state of separatist in the underworld.
Even the founding monarch of the Yang world only has one million heroes at most. In addition, the country's fortune will be prosperous. If they fight with them, both will be defeated and both will be injured. Over time, their fortune will decline, which is even more unsatisfactory.
The fact that the flags kill Yama with 100,000 flags is actually inoperable and is just an idea.
Wang Hongyi just asked: "The situation in the underworld, are it based on each area?"
When I watched the underworld in my previous life, I found that it was a world that extended the earth's material layer. It can be said that all regions, states, countries and continents have their own regions.
Therefore, each region has its own religion, its own underworld, and its own God of Underworld.
The only nation and beliefs have expanded, resulting in the expansion of the scope of the underworld. It can be said that the underworld is synchronized with faith and the country.
Is this the same world?
"What my husband said is, it is indeed the case." Su'er heard this, looked at her in surprise, and said again: "The situation cannot be changed quickly now, only my husband's red Qi suppressed it."
"Red Qi?"
"That is, the husband inherits the red energy and is very noble. Now that the husband has ruled in Xiyizhou, the black energy in Xiyizhou gradually disappears and the red energy is born. As long as the red energy of the east and west Yizhou merges into one place, even the resentment transformed by thousands of souls will be suppressed, at least it will have little impact on the world."
Wang Hongyi grabbed Su'er's meaning: "What will happen if the red energy cannot be integrated?"
"That would make the situation turbulent and the regime unstable." Su'er said in a deep voice: "But this is mostly a king with no virtue. His husband is wise and powerful, and has a deep foundation, but this will not happen."
"With your husband's ability, it is not difficult to stabilize the situation in Xiyizhou. As long as the people live and work in peace and are no longer displaced, the red energy will naturally merge quickly, otherwise there will be some shortcomings." Su'er said immediately.
"This is what the people want." Wang Hongyi's eyes fell on the stack of accounts on the table: "From the land output and household registration over the years, there is a lot of fertile land in Xiyizhou, which is easy to cultivate. The food produced is enough for the people in the country. If it were not for war, only farming with peace of mind would be enough to make the people rich."
The separatist rule of the feudal states or wars was shocking, and Wang Hongyi had personally understood it.
"Master, Lord Zhang asks for a visit." At this time, a guard reported outside the door.
"Husband, since someone asks to see me, I will go to the back home first." Although Su'er is a doctor of forbidden curse, she basically does not involve people's livelihood and government affairs, and she does not want to contact too much, so as not to be suspected of being a back home.
When he heard that Zhang Youzhi was looking for a meeting outside, he stood up and left.
Wang Hongyi said behind, "Although you are my daughter in the inner palace, you can go out for a walk, but remember to bring the guards. Although the situation has stabilized now, you must be more careful."
"Yes, husband." Su'er turned around and said with a smile, turned her head and walked out.
Wang Hongyi waited for her to go out the door and ordered the guards to take Zhang Youzhi to the study.
After a while, Zhang Youzhi, who was exhausted, walked in from outside.
"Youzhi, how do you feel when you go out this trip?" Wang Hongyi asked after he took his seat next to him.
Zhang Youzhi took the cup presented by his servant, placed it aside, and said to Wang Hongyi first: "There are many victims. Fortunately, the lord decided to open the warehouse and release grain before, and asked the major households in Xiyizhou to provide grain and work hard to build a porridge shed. Otherwise, many people would starve to death in just a few days. But even so, it would only last for half a month. If the people cannot be self-sufficient and quickly resume production, there will be very little left in the official warehouse."
"Youzhi, I'm going to ask you to discuss this matter." Wang Hongyi took a photo of the account book placed in front of him: "These are accounts of previous years. After reading it, I realized how much fertile land has been abandoned in Xiyizhou in the past few years. If this continues, I will not be able to continue. If there is a field, I will waste grain and rice. Taking advantage of the fact that it is not too late, I decided to organize the cultivation and replenishment in Xiyizhou. It is a season between spring and summer. When it is over, I can still catch up with the planting of winter wheat."
"Please make an announcement on what you need to do." Zhang Youzhi immediately stood up from his seat and said respectfully.
Wang Hongyi said: "This is Yu Liangbo, the Hushi Department, and the local officials, but this matter is important. You continue to supervise the progress of this matter. If there is anything, just report it to the orphan."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Youzhi took on this task without objection.
A few days later, all counties, villages and towns in Xiyizhou posted a notice.
In the counties of Xiyizhou, labor-for-relief, workers are provided with cabbage and pickled vegetables every day, and there is also a meal of meat every day, which is much better than the meal at the porridge trophy, so as to recruit people to reclaim the land of officials.
Private land is used to borrow tools and cattle and horses to help the land owner replenish the land. If someone cultivates the land without a home, it will belong to it.
Many measures have mobilized the entire Xiyizhou.
On May 16th, the weather was refreshing. Wang Hongyi took a carriage and under the escort of his servants, he left the temporary Shuhou Mansion and walked outside the city.
Outside Yongchang County, there is a large area of fertile land for the official family.
Before, Qian Qingfu's private ownership was owned by him. After Wang Hongyi took over, he would fill it with the official land and fill it with the official warehouse. This is also a reward for future rewards.
When the attendant reminded him that he had arrived in the field, the carriage stopped, and Wang Hongyi got off the carriage and looked to the right.
The large area of refined farmland looks extremely empty, and the same is true on the left.
"What mountain is in the distance?" Wang Hongyi's eyes flew over the fields on the left and fell on the mountain mausoleum in the distance.
It's full of green and looks quite alive.
"When I go back to the Marquis, it is the mountain range of Yongchang County Mountain Gorge. After crossing this mountain, it is the territory of Yueshan County." A guard who knew some of the inside story spoke.
To be continued...
