After the end of the winter month, the meetings in the wax moon will become more intensive, in addition to guiding spring ploughing, units at all levels must also guard against spring floods. Although the construction of embankments on both sides of the Yangtze River has not stopped since Zhang De arrived, the most effective way to reduce disaster losses, no matter how many years have passed, is still "prevention first".

Moreover, Wuhan's "urban population" has greatly expanded regardless of whether it is south of the Yangtze River or north of the Yangtze River, and once it is "waterlogged", the loss will be even greater than elsewhere.

Just in the textile industry, a large-scale "waterlogging", the loss of the entire region is millions of runs, which is enough to burn ten Yixiao buildings.

Thinking about the cash income of the entire Tang Dynasty back then, that is, more than 2 million, now a loss of one region and one industry can reach half of the scale, and the national strength of the Zhenguan Dynasty cannot be said to cover all dynasties.

Archbishop Auroben touted Li Dong as "crowning all kings", which is not casual nonsense, but also has a basis in reality.

Under the influence of "Wuhan", if the bureaucrats are not busy and want to make a fortune for nothing, the difficulty coefficient is not small, and if they do not do it, they will be surrounded by the old brothers of the "Wuhan department" and kill pigs. Therefore, whether it is subjective will or objective conditions, the "Hunan" land-sitting households very close to Wuhan also have to hold a meeting to deal with the arrival of the 20th year of Zhenguan.

Emperor Zhenguan was still in Liaodong, and the central ministers were all "dismissed", and the basic functions of the central "government" were transferred from the three provinces to the Hongwen Pavilion.

Nowadays, although the three high-ranking officials are still "honorable", they are also "honorable", and what the officials of the six departments are pondering is how to mix up with Hongbunkaku scholars, so that they can have direct contact with the emperor to implement the will of the king and achieve the vision of using "power".

The middle and lower-level bureaucrats who can't see the way forward can't see clearly, and as a last resort, they can only think of a different way out, and they can endure the "grievances", and those who are in the "magic capital on the ground" are not unable to get ahead, but they are more difficult, and there are not so many talented and beautiful women.

"The benefits of land and water transportation have been talked about and mentioned in our house. Big households and giant businessmen can also make sense now, of course, if it doesn't make sense, we don't want to say it. ”

At the meeting, Lao Zhang teased him, and all the officials attending the meeting couldn't help laughing. Wuhan has always implemented the "crazy development" model, and any contradictions, under the rapid development, can be covered up or even forgotten.

Those who are unwilling to cooperate, that is, they want to guard their own profits, and are unwilling to pay money to "help each other in the same boat", the Wuhan bureaucracy will instantly change from "you and me" to "six relatives do not recognize". A large part of the funding source of the urban construction and livelihood projects in the periphery of Wuhan comes from the annual "donation".

The official has never said that it must be "apportioned", large merchants have made money, if they have not enjoyed land transportation, they are purely waterways, and they are naturally psychologically unwilling to pay for road repairs, and Wuhan will not force you to pay money, but will soon support competitors who are willing to "donate".

If the government supports competitors in Wuhan, a "metropolis" whose trade volume accounts for half of the country's scale, it will not be able to see results in a few months, let alone three or five years.

After all, for traders, knowing that you have offended Wuhan officials, and still cooperating with you, are they hard-headed or big-hearted?

What's more, Wuhan is talking about the truth, and there are certain predictions about what benefits a thing will be in the future and when it will be effective. Only those who respond to the call of the Wuhan government can play "collusion between officials and businessmen", and if "collusion between officials and businessmen" is just that you pay for me to do things, then it will be simple.

"Collusion between officials and businessmen" is not something that can be played by idiots of cats and dogs.

"In the next two years, 'Hunan' will probably connect Changsha and Baling, as well as the road from Liling to Nanchang. These two roads have been repaired, and they have also helped us a lot in Wuhan, which is why after several demonstrations and on-site investigations, this is strongly supported. ”

As he spoke, a secretary began to hand out pamphlets.

Lao Zhang raised his finger and nodded as he spoke, "Now the permanent population is directly going to two million, and we have been 'enclosing polders and cultivating fields' and 'enclosing lakes and cultivating fields' for many years, and we are dredging and dredging rivers, and the total mileage of river embankments, lake embankments, and river embankments is more than the entire Guannei Road and Hebei Road combined." But it still takes time for the fields to be produced, except for growing grain, at most a little mulberry hemp, and within two or three years, there will be no surplus fields to grow other crops. ”

"For example, cotton, such as vegetable oil, is mainly imported from Hebei and Jianghuai, and the quantity is very large, but the quality may not be excellent, and it is not easy to control it far away. No matter how much you check when entering the port and landing the shore, there will always be an inflow. After all, there are a lot of private docks. ”

The bureaucrats all nodded, Wuhan is developing extremely fast, and the increase in the permanent population is also terrifying, and it is impossible to cooperate with this development, and to achieve pure self-sufficiency in material consumption.

There were even times when grain had to be purchased from Jingxiang. Like the current series of major projects, just meat consumption will use the fleet to traffic Hebei Cangzhou pigs, East China Sea whale meat, and North Korean beef and mutton......

A piece of land can only be cultivated for one or two materials per unit of time. When planting rice, it would be nice to throw a few fish fry into it, and if you want to mix in other profits, it is not possible this year.

Although we know that millions of acres of land will be "born" in Wuhan in the future, it will also be a "difficulty" encountered in front of us in the future, and it will not be easy to deal with it.

"Earlier, I asked Pang Que to go to Tanzhou to have a look, and it took two months, and I mainly walked to three places. Xiangxiang of Lianshui, Liuyang County of Liuyang Water, and finally Lukoushu. Lianshui and Liuyang water, relatively less people and more land, planting rapeseed, can rely on waterways, in Changsha County. Now is the month of wax, next year to plant rape is also too late, to the rape harvest, there is rapeseed oil that year, to take the emergency, more than enough. ”

The amount of kitchen consumables such as sugar, salt, oil, rice, and charcoal used in Wuhan alone is spread to more than one million people, even if it is less per capita, and all of them are relatively "economically independent" population, and the total amount is very exaggerated.

If about half of the arable land in Lianshui and Liuyang Water is used to grow rapeseed, it can basically solve the edible oil shortage in Wuhan.

Although the import volume of animal fat is also very large, the main consumption is not to be eaten, but in industrial production activities, the typical whale oil, which should be large and full, but because there are "three shifts" in Wuhan, it is only a "whale oil lamp" for lighting, a production workshop, less than twenty or thirty, more than one hundred and fifty or sixty, according to different types of production, with different scales.

In addition to the workshop, many wealthy private households also use "whale oil lamps", and the amount of industrial lighting is large, and the food in the stomach is naturally less.

"So I have already mentioned this matter to the Governor's Palace, and the minister is going to set up two more 'oil warehouses' in Lianshui and Liuyangshui, and I don't need to say more about it, I think you will discuss it after the meeting, and you will only say that these are two 'fat shortages'."

Everyone wanted to laugh, but they didn't dare, after all, "fat shortage" is not "fat shortage", it can be said in private, high-sounding to say, isn't this damaging to the "official reputation"?

"Because these two 'oil bunkers' are important, they are temporarily under the management of the 'Hunan Civil Engineering Ambassador', for the reason, to supply the amount of the project. However, the temporary dispatch will be dispersed sooner or later, so the minister decided to wait for the results of the year, and if it is appropriate, it will be placed in the governor's palace and merged with Xiangxiang County and Liuyang County. ”

In this way, the bureaucrats have come to the spirit, according to this statement, isn't it just that if they make the county orders of two counties, they will have an extra "money bag"?

Of course, this "money bag" is under the control of the governor's office, but as long as you are in front of the door, mix your face and get some oil and water, isn't this just a matter of pushing the boat along the water?

For a while, the conference room was even quieter than just now, and everyone fell into a wave of contemplation.
