The "enclosure order" is actually a way out, of course, the premise must be the first thing is the benefit, and the reason why it is said to be a way out is to the people at the bottom.

If the core area of the empire is exploited too much, the "abandonment" can only be solved for a while, but if you "escape" all the way, you can still fight for a way out.

According to Lao Zhang's estimates, when he is about 80 years old, if he lives to that age, the population of the Tang Dynasty will reach about 70 million. If there are special measures to encourage production, it is not impossible to hit 75 million or even 80 million people.

Even according to the population of 80 million, the amount of arable land in the entire Tang Dynasty region has also been greatly developed after 50 years.

Taking Dahe Workshop as an example, before the intervention of Zhang De, Li Simo, Hongnong Yang, Weinan Du, etc., the Hetao was a land of chicken ribs.

However, ten years have passed, scientific planning, rational development, and supporting industries have made agriculture and animal husbandry with Dahe Workshop as the core. A large number of water conservancy facilities have been planned and developed, and more than 3 million acres of land have been added. The planting area of alfalfa and alkali artemisia is guaranteed to be 12 million mu.

The input of green material facilities such as green material towers, plus the use of water and wind power, the input of eight ox plows and curved ploughs, pastoral subcontracting and livestock captivity. The entire Xihetao and the upper and lower Hetao areas near the Dahe Workshop were called "Saishang Jiangnan" in advance during the Zhenguan period.

As for the absorption and regulation of the grassland population by wool spinning, cotton spinning, hemp spinning, tanning and other industries, this is a natural result, not the initial purpose.

At this time, his career was certainly "brilliant", but as an engineering dog, Lao Zhang had to prevent the damage caused by the "explosion". And the "enclosure order" is the retreat before people break through the bottom line after the "explosion" occurs.

Maybe there will be a movement to the east on the sea, or maybe there will be a movement to go west on the Silk Road, but in any case, if you want to play the Xiaobawang learning machine smoothly, these must be taken into account.

"I look at this map of the sea and the frontier, it's overwhelming."

"Your Majesty, the ocean is vast, and the edge of the East China Sea has not yet been explored. Fusang is three thousand miles northeast and east, to the country of Liugui, and you can still see the land and sea. Arriving on the shore, there were dwarf tribes, 30,000 Dingkou, and 2,000 victorious soldiers. At this time, if the season is summer, the sun and stars will hang in the sky for several months, and the west will not be ......"

"Oh? White bear, I think it was caught in this place. ”

"In addition to this, the North Sea is a thousand miles north, and white bears can also be captured. If it is summer time to this place, the sun and stars will flow with the ghost country and the dwarf department. Therefore, Wang Taishi concluded that if the earth is like a chicken, it is a round star, which is the same as the five stars of gold, wood, water, fire and earth. ”

"I have heard of the chicken, and I have heard that the chicken is vast, and all things dwell on it, which is the work of gravity. Thinking about this gravitational pull, it must be powerful. ”

"Your Majesty clearly decides that this is exactly the case, if you can calculate the gravitational constant, it will be very convenient to build civil engineering."

"It is said that there are pedantic celestials, but I look at this world, how can there be any pedantic celestials. only talking about number theory and arithmetic, I was a scholar back then, and I was also a person who could calculate. To this day, when I take it to show me a piece of paper, it is like a book from heaven, and I don't know what it is written. ”

After that, Li Dong sighed, "But I also have to admit that learning from numbers is really beneficial." King Bin, what do you think of the fact that I want to open up a palace of mathematics? ”

"Nowadays, there are also doctors of mathematics, and there are hundreds of thousands of people in Wang Taishimen, and the best one is selected as the professor, and he should be able to get twice the result with half the effort."

"Originally, I thought that it was hopeless to investigate Dingkou in this life, but I never thought that the five surnames and seven hopes were simply vulnerable. It seems that the inventory of Dingkou is also promising. ”

With the central government becoming more and more powerful, the family has completely turned into a paper tiger. While expanding the scale of the imperial examination, Li Dong also plans to spend money and people in the education industry under his nose, including mathematical talents.

The idea of the Mathematics Palace had already germinated before Wang Xiaotong got the calendar. Moreover, Li Dong is extremely ambitious, and a mere mathematical palace can't satisfy him at all.

As the emperor of the empire, he naturally had a sensitive sense of smell to demographic changes and land increases. At the same time, as a unique person, he only needs to plagiarize the answers from the "excellent", and does not need to look for the answers that may not be correct.

Not to mention that in the ruling elite of the empire, any type of top bureaucrat can be found.

The summed up answers have led Mr. Li to focus more on how to increase the population and land quantity. For example, education, health, aquaculture, handicrafts...... These are all industries that His Majesty the Emperor attaches great importance to.

He is not afraid of challenges, "the people can make it, but not make it known", for the embarrassed or stupid emperor, he will feel that the food is delicious. But for Li Dong, the "Emperor of the Ages" must "encompass the universe and encompass the four seas", he is the emperor who wants to surpass the first emperor!

Knowledge can be realized and turned into ability, and instead of putting this ability on dozens or hundreds of families, it is better to put more of it.

At least, at that time, it was not just the Tang Emperor who was challenged; At least, the bottom layer of knowledge and skills can bring more benefits to him, the emperor, and more fame in front and behind.

This is something that the family cannot and does not want to do.

As for a certain Jiangnan native dog that flickered in the grass, although Emperor Li didn't want to ignore him, there was no doubt that the name of "Demon Capital on Earth" was not taken by him Emperor Li......

It's very subtle that a certain earth dog and he, the emperor, are temporarily an animal eating in a trough.

"The farthest one running now is Long Live the King of the East China Sea, and the dwarf caught last year was five thousand miles northeast of Fusang. To the dwarf department, to the shore and sail south, it is a vast continent, similar to China. The bulls brought back were huge, and they weighed more than 200 catties compared to the black ox with strong bones. ”

"The East China Sea is bounded!"

"Wang Wansui has not yet been sure, saying that there is a route to the end of the East China Sea, but the East China Sea is bordered!"

"Their fleet in Fusang must have found a route, just like their fleet in the South China Sea, which is now transporting sulfur, gold, and silver in Qianli Shitang! The sugarcane orchard of Liuqiu is the place where Wang Wansui and Shan Dao Zhensuo's wrecked fleet docked. ”

"Whoever can get the chart will be rewarded with 500 gold yuan from China Resources! Five hundred—"

When Zhang De was waiting for the Zhengdan Dynasty to see the direction of the wind, Luoyang and Yangzhou were waiting to hurry to the sea in the coming year, and the bull brought back by Wang Wansui from the end of the East China Sea was heavier and bigger than the North Sea cattle, which caused a great shock.

Not because the calf is delicious, but because the East China Sea has an end, and as always, after ten years of edification, those who have been exposed to it believe that as long as they go to the sea, there will be gold and silver in return, which is simply certain.

As a natural lack of gold and silver, they can't even dig up much copper, which makes the new and old magnates who have tasted the sweetness of gold routes, silver routes, copper ingot routes, etc., lose their minds in an instant when they hear that the end of the East China Sea is a continent that is "similar to China", which is an unprecedented group madness.

However, Lao Zhang is not interested in any of these things, and sets the goal of a steel plant a year, and his biggest problem is how to solve the labor force.
