Gaiden The population is the base of hegemony

The mining of Baiyun Obo Iron Mine, which is now the Benwolf Original Iron Mine, is only the first step for Liu Yi, and then he will establish a supporting iron-making equipment here, so that the ore can be directly put into production after production, which greatly saves manpower and material resources.

In order to do this, the support of Tu Ge Hu and Chi Hu'er was indispensable, and Ben Wolf was originally between the spheres of influence of their two major tribes. Although the three of them are sworn brothers, and the two of them also take the initiative to help, Liu Yi has never put the infrastructure of official affairs on the basis of feelings, which cannot last long, only the combination of interests can be truly stable, and he will not treat his brother badly.

Now the Benwolf original iron ore is only preliminarily mined, and after the scale continues to expand, Liu Yi is still preparing to build a city here, and the name is Baiyun Obo! He wants to make it a steel capital in the late Han Dynasty!

Liu Yi inspected the wolf plain for a total of seven days, and the craftsmen who came with him also worked out several sets of plans according to the actual situation. Baiyun Obo will not be as large as Shanwu City, it will be mainly defensive, just like Jizhou Anxian County has become a fortress. Of course, Liu Yi also needs to explain this matter, otherwise he is afraid that there will be unnecessary trouble.

In seven days, the relationship between Liu Huan and Hucha and Geler also warmed up rapidly, and Liu Yi could only sigh that the children of this era were too easy to be precocious, otherwise Ganluo would not have become the prime minister at the age of twelve. As the eldest son, it's too early to talk about it, but it's certainly not a bad thing.

When Liu Yi and his entourage turned back to Jinyang, Hucha and Gele followed Xiao Feng, and they had a great interest in the famous Closed Moon Pavilion, as well as the delicious food and beautiful scenery that Liu Huan said, and they were very yearning for it, and Tu Gehu Chihuer was also happy to see it.

In June, the weather is even hotter, and the people are changing into blankets and shorts, which are mainly made of linen, which absorb sweat and breathe, and it is quite comfortable to sit in the shade of the trees and shake the puff fan by hand. Clothing is also one of the changes that Liu Yi brought to this era, it is convenient for the farmer, as for the clothes of the children of the family, in Lang Sheng's eyes, it is a bit of a pretending to be thirteen, and it will be solved slowly when there is an opportunity in the future.

After experiencing the greenhouse effect of global warming in later generations, and being mostly in the north, the summer of Dahan does not make Liu Yi feel hot, and he is most concerned about the irrigation of crops along the way. With water scarcity in the north and little rain in summer, the threat of drought grows in summer......

Lang Sheng is pleased that the villages he passes through have not experienced drought, or have generally been less severe, and the water conservancy foundation laid in the past decade has continued to work better, in addition to the use of natural lakes and the construction of reservoirs, there is also an infrastructure that has worked wonders.

Weifu private interviews are Liu Yi's habits, Zhu Bao and Chen Long are well aware, but as the image of the prince is becoming more and more popular in Bingzhou, now it will have to go through some modifications for this matter, and it is also the safety consideration of Tian'er as the main family, for example, Yanhou, who is now sitting in a farmhouse, has dark facial skin and a thick beard, and looks four or five years older than his actual age.

In ancient China, there was a saying that disguise was also depicted in many martial arts novels, and Chenlong was a master of this, and Liu Yi was also quite interested in it, so he let it be done. In his opinion, the effect is still excellent, and he has to identify it carefully, if Chen Long returns to the next life, he will not be without food, and it is appropriate to mix a makeup artist with his skills, or the top one.

"Brother, is there enough water for the field this year?" The people of the state are strong, but they are also very simple, and they are more enthusiastic about the occasional guests, and the distance is even closer when they say a few words.

"Listen to my brother's accent is a foreigner, this year's rain is not much, if it was not seven or eight years ago when our prince was not in charge, the days would be sad, the harvest will definitely not be good, but the prince has been sending people to dig ditches here a few years ago, and also use waterwheels, there are enough in the field, and there are enough people." Liu Yi deliberately spoke with a little Luoyang accent, and the old man also heard it, so he spoke slowly.

At this time, the old man's son brought a wooden bucket in, the water in the bucket was very clear, and there was a cold air rising nearby, the old man saw this and asked Liu Yi and others to wipe their faces, the weather was too hot.

"Hey, it's so cool, brother, this is well water." Liu Yi didn't refuse, he directly held a handful and threw it on his face, and suddenly it was cool and comfortable, and he didn't wipe the water droplets away and asked. It can also be seen that the brilliance of Chenlong's disguise technique can only be washed away by adding a special juice to water.

"Hehe, brother, you really have insight when you go south and north, this well is also given to us by the adults of the Junhou Sect Instrument Institute, as long as the salary of half a stone of grain, every family in our village has it, and it is more than ten zhang deep, and we can hold on to these wells with less rain." The old man smiled and said proudly.

Here, Fang Xian'er also cleaned her face with well water, she specially asked to accompany her husband today, and she also passed through Chenlong's skillful hands. Originally, she just changed her cloth clothes and skirts, but Liu Yi couldn't see it, Fang Xian'er's figure and appearance were just a hanger, and any clothes worn on her body would not damage her beauty! And it adds more charm, but it is too beautiful to match his image, and it will also attract unnecessary attention.

"Brother, you say that the prince is so good, how can you charge money for digging a well?" Liu Yi smiled and asked, this well is indeed his strategy, after several years of development, and the people's livelihood in the state has been relatively rich, then the state government's finances must be self-sufficient, infrastructure construction is extremely expensive and food-consuming, always relying on oneself is not a long-term plan, taking it from the people is the right way.

Hearing her husband's words, looking at him with a serious look, Fang Xian'er couldn't help but smile, but then reacted that this trip was inappropriate, and hurriedly covered it with her hand.

Sure enough, the old man frowned when he heard this, and the man who came from the water had even more displeasure on his face, Liu Yi's question and Fang Xian'er's actions were quite disrespectful to the prince and marquis in their eyes.

"Brother, you can't say that, the old man and I have to be careful to live a good life when we are a family of six, but our prince is a family of millions of people, isn't it okay? I don't understand the big truth, to be a man, you have to know how to repay the kindness, how much food did the state government exempt us from before? "Old Chinese said earnestly.

"How much has this well helped the farmer? What is half-stone grain? It's still us who take advantage, and there are new rules this year, my daughter-in-law is pregnant with two sons, if you give birth to a boy, the tax will be reduced by ten minus two, and the girl will be reduced by two by fifteen, where have you seen it, brother? The state will help you raise your children. Perhaps because he felt that Liu Yi's attitude was not too upright, the old man continued.

How fast did Liu Yi react? You can know what the problem is when you look at your words and looks, and you will make a happy and convincing look at the moment: "Brother, you can do it, you know everything in your state capital."

Sure enough, after seeing Liu Yi humbly being taught, the expressions of the old man and the man immediately eased a lot.

"It's not that we can do it, it's the prince who thinks carefully, there is a bulletin board at the head of our village, and if there are any rules that are good for the people, the county government will definitely send someone to make it clear, and sometimes it doesn't matter if you are illiterate, we can see the paintings on it clearly." At this time, the old man was very proud when he said and described.

"Guest, I shouldn't have said this, but you can't disrespect the prince when you go business in Bingzhou, my second brother was not at home just now, otherwise he could drive you out immediately." The old man's son thought about it for a while and said, the people are better, and the soldiers will have to suffer more or less when they hear it.

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, respect the prince, I made a note of it." Liu Yi said.

At this time, Fang Xian'er felt a sigh of relief in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it anymore, listening to the respect of ordinary people for her husband, her heart was also sweet, and she was very proud of her husband.

According to the calculations of actuary Comrade Liu Yi, the grain output of Bingzhou is enough to feed five million people, so he still has two million room to work hard, and the increase in population in an agrarian society is the hard standard for development!

It should be said that it was not only in the late Han Dynasty, but also in later generations. Liu Yi has always felt that China's rapid development in the 21st century is inseparable from its huge population base. To put it simply, according to the law of large numbers, there will be more and more talents with a large population base, and they will have a great role in promoting society, which will form a virtuous circle. Not to mention, if Liu Yi is given 20 million people and the conditions to maintain their livelihood, he will be sure that he will complete the unification of the Han Dynasty within five years.

Through a series of preferential policies to stimulate the people is the most stable method, and the facts have proved to be successful, as can be seen from the words of the old man, born and raised is also the foundation.

Supporting these policies is propaganda, explanation, or painting, all of which are means, and Liu Yi's purpose is to make ordinary people feel the benefits of the state government's policies from the bottom of their hearts. Then they can act in time, if every household is like this, there is a time of one or two decades The effect can be reflected, and for the hegemony, one or two decades is really not too long.

Declined the old man's kindness to leave them for dinner, Liu Yi and his entourage set off again, and Lang Sheng also thought a lot on the road, he had countless good strategies in his heart, but he must cooperate with the foundation of this era. For example, the current practice in Youzhou and the two counties cannot be completely consistent with the merger of the state, their foundation is not strong enough, and all policies need to be adapted to local conditions.

The ancients said that I was self-conscious three times a day, and Liu Yi was now strict with himself, and as his prestige increased, he was even more proficient. This is both a good thing and a bad thing, but the good thing is that as long as he is right, the administrative efficiency will be extremely efficient. But if he makes a mistake, he will not only hurt one person, but millions of people in two states, so a cautious attitude is necessary, and it is better to move slowly than to be aggressive.
