Chapter 36 Plans for Gengqu

Tai Shi Ci's miraculous archery skills suppressed all the Yan Zhao warriors...... One hundred and seventy paces away, three bows in a row in different postures, and all three arrows were hit, which required no luck. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info What's more, he still uses a two-stone strong bow, and if someone else doesn't say that he misses, even if he barely pulls the strong bow, it is difficult to maintain accuracy.

The heavier the number of stones, the better, such as these two stone strong bows, the strength of the arrows shot is also great, but the force required to pull away is also great. It is also for this reason that the strong crossbows used by the Yan Zhao warriors are all three stones, which can be used to hold the bow? It's just a half-stone Erjun bow.

The skill of archery is enviable, and the strength of the bow is even more terrifying.

Most of these people are born with divine power, even if Yan Bei has only seen a few people in his life. Such as Guan Yunchang and Zhang Yide under Liu Bei, as well as Taishi Ziyi in front of him now. Even Gao Lan, who has superb martial arts under his command, is a talented person in terms of strength, and he is a little worse than these three people.

Tai Shici's teaching of Yan Zhao's warrior bow technique was settled, and Yan Bei's life became more colorful.

On weekdays, he practiced soldiers in the Xiangping camp, honed his martial arts and archery, took some time to go to Bingyuan's house with Tai Shici to talk about some essence, and occasionally talked with the respected Wang Lie, and after three days, he learned about the situation in Qingzhou with everyone through the letters sent by the water village and the cavalry.

Later, Tai Shici wrote a letter to his family, and Sun Qing personally led the fleet across the sea to Huangxian to pick up his family.

Yanbei finally breathed a sigh of relief, prepared a car for the two old ladies of the Gao family and the families of the generals before the summer solstice, and took his godson Sun Gong out of the city for a few days.

Whether it's the old people in the family, the family members of the generals, or even the juniors Zhen Jiang and Zhen To...... They used to have a very decent life, but they were displaced and uprooted by the war, and now, they are all hard-working people.

As the leader of everyone, Yanbei can do his best, but he can only make them worry about food and clothing. What has happened is like a scar in people's hearts. Always remind them of the good times that they can't go back to.

In addition, the true ruler of Liaodong County sent letters to all the generals except Sun Qing, urging them to marry wives as soon as possible, preferably with two more concubines.

Later, this incident also became a joke among the villagers in Liaodong County, and General Yan was in charge of the general's house.

People say that Yanbei treats his subordinate generals as wives. Yan Bei was not angry when he heard this kind of joke in the broken mouth of the family member, but nodded for a long time, and gave the servant a handful of five baht, and then raised his head and laughed and walked away.

He wants to form a large family that has nothing to do with blood, and the interests and common goals will be ties beyond the clan, and he is the patriarch of this family.

The 3,000 hectares of wasteland that was expected to be reclaimed before the winter snow spread southward with Xiangping as the center, and although it took a month to complete more than 60 hectares, it was foreseeable that the reclamation of the wasteland would be faster and faster under Tiewu's continuous production of agricultural tools. For this reason, he even made arrangements for agricultural affairs in Liaodong in the spring of next year...... At the end of spring planting, a 56-mile canal was built with Gengshui from the field, and the Gengshui originally flowed through the river, which could irrigate nearly 10,000 hectares of land south of Xiangping.

And this canal that has not yet appeared, Fu Zhu has already delineated a total length of more than 200 miles for it, and will continue to explore and excavate in the next few years, and when it is fully repaired, it can make the northeast of Liaoning a treasure field that does not know drought and flood!

Because there are too many mountains and coasts on both sides of Liaodong, there is too little land suitable for farming, and even if you force the wasteland, the land that can be cultivated is limited. But this is not because the soil here is bad, on the contrary, the land in Liaodong County is very good for cultivating food. The soil on both sides of the river has extraordinary fertility due to the perennial impact of the Great Liao Water...... This has resulted in a high yield per mu in the places that can be farmed in eastern Liaodong, but the terrible low grain yield of those inferior fields is too extreme.

However, it is a little difficult for Yanbei to draw conclusions about repairing canals.

"Gonghe, if you want to build a canal, I won't stop you, we will definitely do this thing that benefits all people." Yan Bei sat in the county office in a hurry, with a look of pain that Zhen Yao, Tian Yu, and Zhao had never seen before, "If you build this canal for fifty-six miles, I will follow you...... But you said that you are thinking about building it to more than 200 miles, how many people do you plan to use, and how many years do you plan to use it? ”

"Lord, the canal must be repaired." Frustrated Zhu pulled the map on the silk towel and pointed it to Yanbei, "Next year, this section of fifty-six miles will be repaired, and three thousand people will be recruited in seven months; In the following year, it took 6,000 people a year and a half to repair this section of 73 li. The back can be put to see how much land can be reclaimed in the back, but the reclaimed area is also in this area south of Xiangping......"

Yan Bei raised his two fingers and glared at his eyes: "At least half of the seventy-three miles in the year after tomorrow are in the mountains, how can you cultivate?" ”

"Then it also needs to be repaired, lord, you see, this section has been repaired, although the middle forty miles are tortuous in the mountain road, but once communicated, it can irrigate more than 3,000 hectares of land in the south and north of the mountain."

Yan Bei reluctantly knelt down and sat down, glanced at Fu Zhu and continued: "Gonghe, there are more than 10,000 sons to feed in Liaodong, right?" There's no money or food in the county, right? Not to mention the first 70 miles or so, just the canal of 56 miles, can you build it by levying 3,000 people, at least 5,000 people! The people always have to give 400 yuan a month, which is the least. I won't calculate, you can calculate for me how much these seven months are! ”

Yan Bei looked at Fu Zhu angrily, it was not that he really couldn't figure it out, but this time he was too lazy to draw that nonsense on his head, so he directly clicked on Fu Zhu's general. Who would have thought that as soon as his voice fell, he opened his mouth without blinking: "Fourteen million dollars." ”

"Where's the grain? Give them half a full meal is 5,000 stone a month, plus the loss of transportation 20 and a half, you will have to levy another 42,000 stone of grain...... This is equivalent to another twenty-one two thousand stones raised in the county! Yan Bei applauded lightly and said: "Gong and Ah Gong, the co-author is to open up the wasteland this year and go around the treasury next year, and it will be scattered to the people in the blink of an eye." Do you think this is appropriate? ”

Yan Bei is not really angry, he just has a fire in his stomach, and he has worked hard in the past few months, tossing caravans and selling horses and sending troops to Suli, which has overcome this year's food difficulties. I am still worried that there will be a famine next year, and I will scatter all the thousands of soldiers as field pawns and set the order to reclaim 3,000 hectares of land this year, how much more relaxed is this Yanbei's heart?

The reclaimed new fields have not yet seen hundreds of hectares, and such a toss has smoothed out next year's income and expenditure.

What's more important is that he wants to raise and use soldiers. With such a big place and so many people in Lelang County, even if they belong to the Han family, they can't stop Yanbei from coveting that land. The Xianbei Suli tribe outside the Saiwai has let him run for so long, and this year is also the time for this chess piece to exert its might, plus the chaotic Goguryeo...... I don't want to mention the hatred of Montenegro, which is already on the agenda and will go sooner or later.

"I don't understand, you said that there are so many counties in the Han family, and none of them are as smooth as Liaodong's finances and taxes, and you still have to add money to them, right?" Yan Bei blew and looked at the door of the official office, muttering a dirty word from his mouth, and then turned around and said to the four of them with a bitter face: "I knew earlier, I should have taken advantage of the fact that I was still a rebel to fight in Liaoxi, and robbed the families of the brothers of Bogui, and I didn't have to suffer such a dilemma of having no money to use now!" ”

After complaining, Yan Bei got up and asked the four of them, "You have all discussed, do you think this thing can be done, do you want to do it?" ”

Frustrated with a smile, Tian Yu and Zhao Zhen Yao glanced at each other, nodded and said, "General Hui, the canal needs to be repaired." ”

Seeing that Yanbei was not so angry, he walked in and said: "General, in fact, the cost of repairing the canal is not so great, and there are many displaced people in the coastal counties, so they only need to produce grain to repair the canal." In addition, next year, the 56-mile Geng Canal will be repaired, and all the land that can be irrigated along the line will be reclaimed, and according to this year's point of view, next year the field will be able to reclaim another 5,000 hectares of land, and then the county will be able to enrich the treasury, whether it is the official salary, the craftsman's salary, or the soldier's rations, the county will be able to provide for itself, and the cost of repairing the canal will naturally not be a problem. ”

"Can it really have that much effect?" Yanbei Zhengse said to Fu Zhu: "Gonghe, no matter what you want to do, I will do my best to help you, even if the effect of this canal is not so great, you say that you want to repair it, I will find a way for you, but you don't have to fool me." ”

"When did you scold the general?" Fu Zhu hurriedly said to Yanbei: "Not to mention that 3,000 hectares of land can be harvested, just these 56 miles of Geng Canal can irrigate thousands of tons of land, so that every mu can double the grain, although the county government field tax only increased by more than 1,000 stones, but this can save the people of Liaodong from hunger to some extent...... What's more, half of those fields are still cultivated by the general's subordinates, and if there are no problems with tuntian and canal repair, he can collect 2 million stone grain for the general in the next year! ”

Yan Bei pursed his lips at the tip of his tongue, thinking for a moment that two million stone grains were actually stupid.

His more than 10,000 soldiers and horses together in one piece only consume 400,000 stones a year, what is the concept of 2 million stone grain? Thinking of this, Yanbei asked: "But didn't you say that Liaodong can collect more than 100,000 stone grains at most this year?" How can you collect two million in two years? ”

"This year's grain harvest is low, and a lot of land has been trampled and destroyed because of the war, and it is impossible to produce grain. Next year, if the people in the county do not violate the agricultural season, they will be able to collect 400,000 stone grain and 40,000,000 yuan in taxes when the harvest arrives; But this is not counting the reclaimed wasteland, half of those lands are counted as state capitals and half as generals, and 3,000 hectares can collect 800,000 stone grain. Therefore, the general is worry-free, and the construction of the canal in the following year is nothing in the county. ”

Yan Bei thought about how beautiful it was to sleep with tens of millions of dollars and millions of stones of grain on his pillow; while thinking about where to get more than 10 million dollars and how painful it is to consume the food now; In the end, he gritted his teeth and said to Fu Zhu: "Repair! Next year's money and food, Yan will find a way! ”
