Chapter 707: Three-Year Plan
At some point, small snowflakes suddenly fell from the sky. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Standing in front of the window and looking at this scene, Xiao Ming sighed in his heart that a year was about to pass again, and in this past time, he finally completed the unification of the Great Chongqing Kingdom.
Li Kaiyuan noticed Xiao Ming's expression, in his opinion, Xiao Ming seemed to have a soft spot for winter, and he didn't know why.
"The lower officials won't bother the emperor to enjoy the snow, so I'll go back to prepare the "Law of Commerce"." Li Kaiyuan said that he was still a little stressed in front of Xiao Ming, after all, a companion is like a tiger.
Nodding, he said to Li Kaiyuan: "I am going to make the Chamber of Commerce the Department of Commerce one day, and from then on you will officially become an official of the imperial court, and I have told you many times about the functions of this Department of Commerce, and you will be responsible for the jurisdiction of the commerce of the Great Chongqing Kingdom from now on according to the scope of these functions." “
"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Kaiyuan responded, tightened the cotton clothes on his body and walked into the snow, this winter is getting colder and colder every year.
Seeing Li Kaiyuan leave, Xiao Ming looked to the north, this year's winter is even colder than in previous years, this time it is estimated that it is enough for the barbarians.
He could expect that livestock would freeze to death again in the northern steppes this year, which would make life even more difficult for the barbarians.
And the barbarians who lack food and clothing will only do one thing, that is, robbing, so it can be foreseen that the war between the barbarians and the Great Yu State is imminent, after all, the grain output on this land is so much, and the Great Yu Country will eat more, and the barbarians will have to starve to death.
In fact, the history of mankind is nothing but a history of cannibalism, and the difference lies in whether you eat others or eat your own people.
In the Age of Discovery, the West chose to eat people from other continents, so there is the prosperity and strength of the West today, and the land of Dayu has always been its own people eating its own people.
After stopping to look at the snow for a while, Xiao Ming re-immersed himself in the design of the industrial planning of the six states.
There were only 100 steam engines at auction, but in fact 300 were actually made in the steam engine workshop during this time.
After getting this number, he ordered that only 100 units be given to the merchants, after all, compared to private workshops, the most important ones are still government-run workshops.
After all, this private workshop is to provide various commodities for the people, and it is the government-run workshop that can really guide the development of the country.
His plan was to build two more large steel mills, not in Qingzhou, but in Kaiping Prefecture, near Laiwu and Youzhou.
Needless to say, this Laiwu is the largest coal and iron producing area in Shandong, and the construction of Laiwu Iron and Steel Mill will greatly reduce the transportation cost of ore.
And this Kaiping Prefecture is the Kaiping town in the late Qing Dynasty, which is also famous, in fact, it is the contemporary Tangshan, which is very rich in coal and iron, and he plans to build Kaiping Iron and Steel Mill here.
Naturally, these steel mills are coal and iron mines, but in addition to these two minerals, Xiao Ming is also planning to develop both gold and silver mines in Laizhou.
Coal and iron are for industry, and gold and silver are for finance, and he wants to start industry as soon as possible in this rare period of peace.
It took only 40 years for Japan to become a great power during the Meiji Restoration, and this was the direct transition from feudal society to the West during the Second Revolution.
So for Xiao Ming, he doesn't need forty years at all, as long as he is given ten or eight years, he is enough to make the industry of Dayu catch up with the West, and then it will blow up the West.
However, in order to be able to concentrate on big things, he still has to solve one more problem, which is the problem of population flow in Dayu.
In feudal dynasties, the population was almost immobile, mainly to avoid the unstable factor of exile.
And now Xiao Ming wants to engage in industry and capital, which inevitably requires a large number of people.
The population of the six states is limited, and most of them have their own land, and these people are not at all enthusiastic about entering the workshop, so now both he and the merchants of Qingzhou need a large population to develop industry.
So at this time, he naturally hit the idea of the displaced people produced by the Northern War, which not only lost a lot of people in the north after more than a year of chaotic war, but also gave birth to a large number of displaced people.
In the past, these displaced people had to return to their hometowns to farm, but now there are two ways, and that is to enter the workshop.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ming put away the pen, he wrote down this question, and prepared to say it together tomorrow morning.
In addition to this, he also prepared a number of other things, and he also gave a well-known name called the three-year plan.
The next day, Qingzhou City was wrapped in silvery-white snow that had fallen all night.
After playing with Fei Yue'er and his son for a while in the dormitory, he took his three-year plan and went to the council hall.
After a heavy snowfall, the clothes worn by the ministers became significantly thicker, and Xiao Ming smiled: "You Aiqing's official robes are all cotton jackets sewn by the textile mill?" ”
Pang Yukun took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, this padded jacket is thick and cold-resistant, not only the officials but also most of the people have worn this padded jacket this year." ”
"Lao Chen has lived in Chang'an for decades, I thought that Chang'an was the richest place in the world, but I never thought that this was only five or six years, and the people of Qingzhou lived more comfortably than the people of Chang'an. Fiji said with a smile.
When the officials heard this, Chao Jun said: "It can be seen that the emperor is far-sighted, and the people of Qingzhou live so comfortably because of the abundance of products, and the abundance of products is inseparable from commerce and industry." “
"What Chao Shangshu said is that the products of Qingzhou are indeed richer than those of Chang'an."
"It seems that this business and industry are also beneficial."
“……”
Facts speak louder than words, and the officials echoed them one by one.
Slightly satisfied with the performance of the officials in the hall, Xiao Ming threw out the most important national plan of the year, he said: "You Aiqing are all understanding people, you have lived in Qingzhou for a long time, this is the merits can also be seen clearly, this early dynasty is not for other things, for this industrial and commercial development, for this I have formulated a three-year plan." “
As he spoke, Xiao Ming asked Qian Dafu to send down the printed pamphlets one by one.
Fiji and Pang Yukun immediately looked at it after getting it, and immediately showed a look of shock.
This pamphlet clearly records the major events to be done by the imperial court in the next three years, from agriculture to commerce, from government affairs to military affairs.
"What I want to say this time is in it, in the next three years, the government of the six states will strictly follow the plan above, if it can't be completed after three years, whoever drags back, I will try to ask him, so take advantage of the present, ask whatever you want."
The officials raised their heads at this time, and this was the first time they had seen this kind of government affairs.
