Sun Gu said dissatisfiedly: "Prince An, can it be the same?"

"Mr. Sun, why is it different? Mr. Sun, the reason why he runs Dali is the Wuman Copper Mine is an unexpected surprise. At that time, I was mainly thinking about Tengchong Ma.∈↗,"

Not exactly, the real thing is Wang Ju's idea of ​​unification, as well as the ambitiousness of the Gao Yang family in Dali, the autocracy of the Gao family and the weakness of Dali themselves, which also gave Wang Ju a good opportunity, so he used troops to Dali.

However, we have to analyze it from the perspective of the court and let the court see the benefits.

War horses are the biggest benefit.

Not only did the Song Dynasty lack war horses, but even if it was money, it could not buy horses. Whether it was the Western Xia or the Liao Kingdom, the policy of controlling war horses was implemented on the Song Dynasty.

Therefore, Tengchong horses, which are taller than Sichuan horses, are very important.

Although the journey is long and there are many casualties and injuries to the north, and there are also many expenses, the price is far less than the price in the Liao Kingdom and Xixia. When the cost is similar, there are Tengchong horses and no Tengchong horses, which are of different natures.

"However, no matter whether you operate the Wuman copper mine or Tengchong horse, you must use small troops on a series of occasions. But why did I hear the orders from Xifu to stop using troops on Yunnan Road? Even the rebellion did not allow the officers and soldiers of Yunnan Road to suppress it? Sun Gong, can you explain it?"

"Prince Zi'an, how many soldiers and people have been killed or injured in the south in the past few years?"

Wang Daxiao smiled.

He didn't want to understand this issue anymore.

Is there any reason for rebellion not to be suppressed?

Seeing that the situation was not good, Feng Jing said, "Zi'an, this is the business of the Western Palace."

"Yes. It's the right of the Western Prefecture. But does the Eastern Prefecture not even have the right to intervene? If so, why did the Fu Gong propose that the Prime Minister of the Western Prefecture also take the position of the Eastern Prefecture, and the Prime Minister of the Eastern Prefecture also take the position of the Western Prefecture?"

The Eastern Prefecture of the Song Dynasty was in charge of government affairs, the Western Prefecture of the Western Prefecture was in charge of military affairs, and the Three Divisions were in charge of finance.

But can these three be cut?

Let’s not mention waste, just because the East and West governments did not ask each other, which led to conflicts between various government orders during the Qingli War, which made officials of the states and counties and generals of the battalions not know what to do. So Fu Bi suggested that the East and West governments should take on each other’s positions so that the East and West governments could understand some military situations, and the West governments could also understand some government affairs situations.

Later, this move was cancelled, but both governments began to have the right to inquire about each other's situation.

For example, the prime minister of Xifu can also express opinions on government affairs or write to the emperor.

In fact, Wang Ju really didn't ask about military affairs. This was what Zhang Ju felt when he felt a headache and wrote a letter to Wang Ju. Wang Ju knew about it.

After finishing laughing, Wang Ju said: "Your Majesty, I propose to acquire the Municipal Yi Department and reset the Southern Twelve Road Shipping Department, but this proposal has nothing to do with other reforms. If you want to cancel the reform, or are unwilling to cancel any reforms, don't stick to what I have to do. Mr. Sun, if it is the same, it is unreasonable. If it is different, I can only give four words of evaluation, with ulterior motives!"

The so-called case of Wang Ju must be false.

But except for many people who were bewitched, the rest of them were really ulterior motives.

For a moment, the entire court hall was silent.

Walking back to the Secretariat, Cai Jing said, "It's still the prince who has great wisdom."

This Cai Jing...

It's really disgusting to think about what he did with the future second talented man in the Song Dynasty.

However, Wang Ju also had to admit that this treacherous minister Cai really had some skills.

"Prince, that household registration has been sorted out."

"Take it to me."

The county and county reported the number of households in various places to the court's Ministry of Revenue. After preliminary sorting, the Ministry of Revenue was handed over to the Zhongshu House. Wang Ju asked Cai Jing to divide it into two parts. Part of it was the number of households in the territory of the Song Dynasty, and part of it was the number of households on Yunnan Road and Jiaozhi Road. Later, the number of households on these two newly developed roads was sorted into a book.

The number of households in the latter two routes reached more than 900,000. Wang Ju didn't care, he was looking at the former.

The total number of households in the former is more than 12.26 million main households, and the number of customers is more than 4.9 million.

Customers only account for one quarter of the reasons for two.

The first reason is that Wang Ju promoted that many extremely poor people migrated away. Most of the small amount of arable land or houses they left behind were embezzled or purchased by local tyrants, and a few were circulated to the remaining poor households or the poor relatives who immigrated. Wang Ju also fought against local tyrants in the south, which also created some main households and reduced some customers. However, these two points had little impact, and would not exceed one million households.

The second reason is that the main household is not the landlord, but the main household. Even if the fifth-class poor households with only a few acres of arable land in their hands are considered the main household. As for the customers, those who do not have a little arable land in their hands, and even urban households do not even have their own houses, and they make a living by renting houses. This is the customer. In other words, only a small number of fifth-class and poor households with less than sixth-class poor households are considered customers.

If the court could relax, Wang Ju would have enough income overseas and transfer all of these more than 4 million customers, it can be said that there would be no serious crisis in the Song Dynasty within ten years.

But this is impossible.

Wang Juxin calculated the total number of households except the two routes of Jiaozhi, Yunnan, and the total number reached nearly 17.2 million!

"Yuan Chang, you can calculate the number of households in the three years of Zhiping and the current growth rate of households, fifty years, and one hundred years later, how many households can our dynasty reach? However, the two routes in Yunnan will continue to be excluded."

"Prince, this is a brief increase in the number of households. It is impossible for our dynasty to continue to maintain this population growth rate in 100 years."

"Yuanchang, from the third year of Zhiping to the tenth year of Xining, how many households did our dynasty increase? Only hundreds of thousands of households, why did it increase so much in these three or four years? In fact, it is very simple. There were several major droughts in those years, and the new law had just been implemented, and the number of troops used in the northwest was used, so the population growth was slow. But the actual population was increasing, especially the farmland water conservancy law, and the people of the states and counties with crowded population in the south to Jiaozhi, Guangnan, which was further south. These policies have supported more people. Although the court has been using troops in recent years, it is only the south that has been using troops. Only the military and civilians of Guangdong and Guangxi have not suffered much sacrifices. The increase in these years has grown up and divided families and established careers. So in just three or four years, the population has increased by more than two million households."

"Yes, I just received the household registration from the Ministry of Revenue. I calculated it, but I still don't understand it. So that's it."

"As for this increase rate, the increase rate is not too high in our dynasty. The highest was the time of Emperor Zhenzong of Song, but the population base was small at that time. Although the increase rate was high, the increase rate of households was not as high as that of now. However, in the future, the south was developed, especially Yunnan Road and Jiaozhi Road, which were both sparsely populated and suitable for planting. Our dynasty has brought advanced civilized farming and planting technology one after another. Although the increase rate in the future is not as high as that in Yuanfeng years, it will not be lower than the total increase rate of Your Majesty in the past decade. Unless our dynasty has more major disasters in the future, or the monarch and ministers are in a mess in the future, or the strong neighbors in the north have large-scale invasion of our dynasty. Moreover, the popularity of cotton is required, more people will not freeze to death. There is also overseas reclamation. When the disaster comes, there is another large grain base to help the people overcome difficulties. Do you think the increase rate will drop?"

This is really hard to say.

If the actual population increases to a certain extent, the people themselves will implement more cruel self-parent planning, which means that more areas will cruelly drown their second and third children in cradles.

There are also some people with vision who will flee to other places, such as Jiaozhi, Guangnan and even Yunnan Road. At the same time, some people will flee overseas spontaneously. In fact, this autumn, some people will also flee to Quanzhou. Without finding a way out to make a living, they begged the owners of various seaships to take them in and let them move overseas.

In addition, a post office was set up. Even overseas, they could send money to their relatives and relatives in their hometowns. This also opened a bright window for many people, giving them the courage to migrate outward.

Moreover, Wang Ju's governance in Guangnan included many barbarian households, but these barbarian households were not in the household registration book. Of course, it is not easy for officials to use this. Although Wang Ju found a large number of barbarian households, he also migrated a large number of people overseas. On the surface, the two were equal, but why was it on the surface? Because these migrant people were almost all extremely poor people. If they migrated away, they would undoubtedly leave more living space for the local people.

Therefore, in the future, the court will continue to not support migration overseas, and the increase rate will not be higher than these fourteen years.

However, if Wang Ju doesn’t say it, who would have thought of it?

So why did Wang Ju say it out? Is it still convincing?

But this is scary. In the 14th year, the original number of households in the Song Dynasty increased by three million!

Moreover, even without the promotion of Wang Ju, if there was no rule by Zhao Ji in history and the Jin people went south, fifty years later, the total number of households in the Song Dynasty would easily exceed 25 million, or even 26 million or 27 million!

Cai Jing took two household books down.

After a while, he returned with a look of surprise: "Prince, can you calculate this way?"

"Why can't we calculate this way?"

"If it were calculated like this, it would be a very amazing number."

Because Cai Jing and the officials had been planning for a long time, they found that based on the increase in the number of households in Zhao Xu in the past fourteen years, the number of households will increase to 19 times to twice in fifty years. If it includes Yunnan Road and Jiaozhi Road, it will easily exceed twice.

The total number of households in the country will exceed 36 million!

As for a hundred years, it is even more unimaginable.

That is 3.8 times to 4 times, more than 70 million households! There is no need for more than 70 million households. As long as there are 36 million households, even if there are Yunnan Road and Jiaozhi Road, some areas will have to eat people.

Wang Jiufu bowed his forehead and said, "Send it to the palace immediately."

In just a moment, Zhao Xu issued an edict to ask the two governments, three departments, two systems, censors, Taishi Nong Temple and other important departments to go to Yanhe Palace to discuss matters.

Zhao Xu was also crazy when he saw Cai Jing's calculations.

Lu Gongzhu said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, these households also include some Kunlun slaves."

As the indigenous people and Jiaozhi people migrated from many areas became unruly, the people of the Song Dynasty began to reject them. Some of the masters could not bear it anymore. While cursing Wang Ju, the court ministers were irritable, while enduring losses, they sold them to mines in various pits as mine slaves.

We can't afford you anymore.

However, there are still many people who stayed safe and gradually merged. But overall, this part of the population will definitely increase negatively.

However, Lu Gong's voice was very weak. Even so, how much proportion can they account for compared with hundreds of millions of people in the Song Dynasty?

Cai Que said: "Your Majesty, this is also a proof."

Many people say that reform is not good. If reform is really not good, why is the population growing so fast?

But it is hard to say that the increase and increase is not related to the entire reform. The most important thing is the farmland water conservancy law, especially the emergence of Hebei water conservancy and Jiangdongwei, the progress of agricultural technology, and the promotion of Wang Ju. Although Wang Ju runs away many people, under his various promotions, the increase is definitely much more people than the people who have taken away.

Just like Guangdong and Guangxi, if the number of households included in the inspection has nearly doubled!

Zhao Xu ignored the intrigue between the two, but asked: "Will it really increase like this in the future?"

Let’s not mention a hundred years later, just talk about this fifty years. If Zhao Xu and most middle-aged and young scholars and officials lived a longer life, they would be able to see it.

Wang Ju said: "I asked the household registration inspection to correct the statistics of Cai Jing, and Cai Jing was also extremely surprised and said it was impossible. I said there are several situations that can prevent the population from continuing to expand."

"Wang Qing, what are the situations?"

"First, it is a major disaster of continuous disaster, but this situation has little impact. The scale of the drought in Xining in the seventh year can already be ranked as one of the ten disasters in history. Moreover, the court has begun to add two large granaries in Jiaozhi, Guangnan. It is really not possible. It can also mobilize food and emergency services from overseas. Second, the future of the monarch and ministers is in a mess, which is not a population crisis, but a crisis of the entire country. Third, the northern nomadic people invaded the core area of ​​our dynasty, causing wars in half of the Song Dynasty. Fourth, the farmers are the ones who are in trouble. Because of mergers and tyranny, there will be large-scale riots. If these four possibilities are excluded, then in fifty years, even if there are no 36 million households, if there are no 30 million households, including the Yunnan Road of Jiaozhi, it will reach 3 million households. As for a hundred years, there will not be more than 70 million households, but it will be close to 5 million households. Fifty years later, the Song Dynasty may still be able to support so many people, but in a hundred years, with the cultivated land area of ​​the Song Dynasty, it will definitely not support five million households. Unless there is a special accident..."

"What a special accident?"

"We found several grain crops that are more yielding and easy to plant than Chameng rice. In addition, the entire grain crop production has been technologically improved. So with the arable land area of ​​our dynasty, it may be able to accommodate 560 million households."

"This is unlikely."

Wang Ju spread his hands.

Li Chengzhi murmured: "To overseas..."

"It is unlikely to go overseas. Now, on average, the increase of 220,000 households per year. With the ability and financial resources of overseas maritime merchants, can they arrange 22 households and more than one million people to survive every year? Li Sizhi, I don't believe that by next year, the representatives of those maritime passengers will come to Beijing to see His Majesty and ask them if they agree."

There is no way overseas, what else can I do?

But there was a lot of joy in the capital.

There were many trade lines in the Song Dynasty, but there was one of the most important trade lines, that is, goods from the south were transported from the Grand Canal to the capital, and then transferred from the capital to the north and northwest.

Therefore, the area where the market law hurts the most is the small and medium-sized merchants is the small and medium-sized vendors in the capital.

The edict was issued in front, and countless small vendors set off firecrackers to celebrate.

This has made many old parties find reasons.

However, all these letters made Zhao Xu stay and stop posting. As for Wang Ju, he calmed down, and what he did was only fine-tuning. Including the rectification of the department and the minister's money, although there was a controversy, it had nothing to do with the reforms and was also fine-tuning.

New Year's Day gradually came, and then something fun happened.
