Li Di was a little confused when he heard this, and asked Xu Ping: "Long Tu, you are going to open a river and build a road, where do people come from?" Now that the people of each state are useful, who will repair the canals around the western capital? Henan Mansion really can't draw people! ”

"Oh, Xianggong is too worried, the transfer envoy didn't want to use the manpower of Jingxi Road in the first place. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" Xu Ping smiled, "This year, Jingdong Road and Lianghuai are drought, and many victims have been recruited as van soldiers, and many of them are subordinate to the Third Division. These victims were not easy to resettle, and Jingxi Road was sparsely populated, so tens of thousands of people moved over. In the winter, rivers and roads are repaired, and in the spring of the following year, part of the subordinate field work is used to reclaim the wasteland, and the other part is in the field affairs of the transfer envoy. When it comes to manpower, these are enough. ”

When Sun Wei heard this, he almost vomited blood. I tried my best to make the people in the surrounding states of Henan Province useful, in order to let the transfer envoy no one work, and I wanted to see Xu Ping's jokes. Who would have thought that he had already found a good person, and all the work he did was in vain, and he gave up the lead in repairing the river in vain. I knew that there were people, so why not be hosted by Henan Mansion? This time, if you give up the dominance, there will be endless troubles.

Li Di, Chen Yaozuo and others also felt strange and asked Xu Ping: "Even if there are people, where does the food come from?" All the grain that the states have closed up is combined, and it can't feed the stomachs of tens of thousands of people. Not to mention that the position is often closed for disaster prevention years, and the grain in it is easy to move. Xu Ping, you have to think clearly, there can't be a little mistake in this matter! ”

Xu Ping pointed to Wang Gongchen, who was sitting on the guest seat, and said: "This is not to call Wang Ti, who is in charge of the camp and field affairs, to come over, the camp field affairs have a bumper harvest this year, and there is grain there." To reclaim the barren land, or to subordinate the field affairs, they want to use the land on Jingxi Road to borrow hundreds of thousands of stones of grain from us, right? Without the support of camp and field work, how can we take over tens of thousands of people at once? ”

Several Zhizhou looked at Wang Gongchen, and then at Liu Xin beside Wang Gongchen, and then understood that Xu Ping called these two people for a purpose. The local government does not support it, and Xu Ping can naturally borrow it from the Third Division, and his deputy envoy of salt and iron this year is not in vain. Speaking of local money and grain, most of them are provinces, how can the arms be twisted over the thighs of the three divisions?

Wang Zhen shook his head secretly in his heart, Sun Wei was really foolish, Xu Ping was appointed as a transfer envoy from the post of deputy envoy of salt and iron, how could he be compared with the general transfer envoy who was promoted from Zhizhou? Not to mention, the news from the capital that Xu Ping is done in this term, it is likely that he will return to the third division as the third secretary, and the people in the third division will still scold him. This time it's good, I lost my wife and broke my soldiers, and a bad thing spread out, not to mention Sun Wei, even I had to be unlucky.

Xu Ping had to use some extraordinary means to gain time on Jingxi Road. The party rebellion is imminent, the war is together, there is no chance to reform calmly, and there is not much time left for Xu Ping, where does he still have the patience to fight with local officials and play small tricks. The idle fields between Kaifeng Mansion and Jingdong Road have been cultivated almost in a year, although all the grain is planted and the land is slowly raised, but there is a framework, and Wang Gongchen has little significance there. There are a lot of idle fields on Jingxi Road, and the focus of field work in the future will be shifted here, and we will do it together this winter.

The famine relief system of the Song Dynasty was the most perfect in all dynasties, although disasters continued, but it never caused nationwide turmoil due to natural disasters, and at most it was limited to a few states. The most important thing is, of course, the regular liquidation and the supporting disaster relief system, which is really not good, and there is also the trick of recruiting disaster victims as soldiers and moving to other places to get food.

This year, Jingdong Road and many state troops in Lianghuai were affected, and Zhang Cun, the transfer envoy of Jingdong Road, was promoted because of his ability to relieve the disaster, and Fan Zhongyan was also sent out to serve as a pacification envoy for several months, all for this disaster. It was densely populated, and in addition to disaster relief, nearly 100,000 people were recruited into the army, some of which were added to the camp and field work, and most of them were asked by Xu Ping. These armies are not under the jurisdiction of the Privy Council, but under the three divisions, and Xu Ping has this convenience. Besides, with so many mouths to eat, other places are afraid of it, who will take the initiative to ask for it.

With the grain for the field work, the money for the three divisions, and tens of thousands of manpower, even if it is a war, Xu Ping can bulldoze Jingxi Road, where is he afraid of any small actions in the local area. What he has always worried about is that Li Ruogu of Henan Mansion is in love with power and refuses to give up the power of Luoyang City. Now that Henan has delegated power, there will be no obstacles.

The Zhizhou present now understands that Xu Ping not only has power in his hands, but also has sufficient money, food and manpower, and what he wants to do is not something that can be blocked by the local government at all, and the scene is suddenly much quieter.

Xu Ping saw that everyone's expressions became serious, and said, "The matter of repairing the river is decided like this." The rivers below Bishui County were raised by Chen Xianggong, and the manpower, money and grain of the four prefectures of Meng, Zheng, Xu and Ru were mobilized by him, and the states must be completed, and if there are difficulties, they should be reported to the Cao Division in time, and I think of other ways. Above Bishui County, including the rivers of the Luo River and the Yi River, the damming and sorting out is presided over by the Cao Division, and the counties under the rule of Henan Prefecture must obey the instructions. -- Deputy Envoy Yang, tomorrow Cao Si will issue a proclamation to inform the counties along the Yi and Luo rivers, so that the county commanders will know in their hearts. ”

Yang promised.

Li Ruogu was relieved, and Xu Ping went directly to the counties under his rule, bypassing Henan Mansion. Henan Mansion is the capital government, and the prefect is also in charge of the left-behind department, and the transfer envoy can't manage it, and the counties below still have to be honest and obedient. Xu Ping's purpose was not only to build dams, open rivers and transport them by boat, but also to use water power to develop various industries and make up for what could not be done in the capital.

Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Xu Ping continued: "In addition to talking about repairing the river today, there are two more things. ”

"The first is Yingtian, there are many idle fields on Jingxi Road, especially in Ru, Tang, Deng, and Cai Prefectures, where there are few households and a lot of open land in the territory. In previous years, although the prefecture and county also intermittently ran some camp and field affairs, they were abandoned after a year or two. Today, we will not talk about the shortcomings of the past, and we must look forward to everything. Wang Tiju came because last year, most of the idle fields around Kaifeng Mansion had been cultivated. In the first year, the camp collected hundreds of thousands of stones, which is not a small amount, and this is the capital. This year's field work is mainly on Jingxi Road, mainly in the four prefectures mentioned earlier, plus idle fields within 50 miles along the Yellow River, Luohe River, and Bianhe River. The transshipment envoy will have a special person to cooperate with the camp and field affairs, and each state and county will be assisted by the general judgment and the main book in principle. Of course, you can't just do things without benefits. The harvest of the prefectures and counties with camps is divided into three parts, one to the camp field, one to the transfer envoy, and the remaining to the prefecture and county. Roughly speaking, it is 50 percent for the camp and field, 30 percent for the transshipment department, and 20 percent for the state and county. How to divide the state and the county, then it will be discussed by the governors, and finally reported to the transfer envoy here. In the future, Cao Si will go down to inspect, and these accounts are all among the checks, so don't be sloppy. ”

Zhao He frowned and said, "Isn't there too little space?" It's not like two taxes! ”

"When did the two taxes belong to the state and county? Okay, the specific proportion, let's discuss it later, today is just a rough outline. We still have a few days left in this meeting. ”

In principle, the two taxes should be sent to the province, and have nothing to do with the state or county. Xu Ping gave 20% to go, which is already to take care of the locality, so that the state and county have a little financial power in their hands, and it is easy to do things, and do not apportionment to the local government at every turn.

Wang Gongchen collects hundreds of thousands of stone of grain a year, this number is too large, and it is inevitable that the local government will be tempted to say it. If the camp and field work under his rule also have this kind of efficiency, and if he has a little more points, it will be much easier to do things in the future. Fortunately, the state has basically no financial power at the county level, and it will definitely often reach out to the camp in the future.

The classification of counties is that more than 1,000 households are medium counties, and every 1,000 households are added by one grade, and more than 4,000 households are wang counties. 500 to 1,000 households are middle and lower counties, and less than 500 households are lower counties. Most of the counties in this era were not as large as the population of the townships and towns in Xu Ping's previous life, and they were similar to the townships and towns, but they were not complete administrative levels. In fact, in addition to Lianghuai and Jiangsu and Zhejiang, at most one Kaifeng Prefecture is added, and there is basically no Wangxian County in other places according to population. As the Henan Prefecture of Xijing, except for Luoyang and Henan counties attached to Guo, the others are only upper and middle, and Yong'an and Gong counties, which have the smallest population, have no more than 1,000 household registrations.

Xu Ping has gradually become accustomed to treating the county of this era the same as the township of his previous life.

Seeing that no one spoke, Xu Ping said again: "In addition to Yingtian, the second thing is the shop of the third division." Now there are shops in Jingxi Road with three divisions in several states, and everyone should feel the convenience it brings. Next, the shops of the three divisions will be opened in every state and county, starting from the rule of all of you. When Judge Liu came, he was here to discuss this matter. The shop belongs to the three divisions, but if it is opened in a place, it is indispensable for the local help. I still say that if you do something, you should have benefits, and the interest of the three shops should also be shared. However, it can't be as high as the proportion of camps, and we'll discuss it later. ”

Xu Ping wants to open the shop of the three divisions into a supply and marketing cooperative in this era, of course, it must spread all over the urban and rural areas, at least at the county level. The most important thing is that these shops not only sell goods, but also collect local products from all over the country, buy and sell, and form a large commercial network throughout the country. There is no shop, and the local specialties of the local state and county can only be used as tribute, and the local government cannot get benefits, and many good things are rotten in the production area. With a supply and marketing system, the local economy can be stimulated.

As for allowing local governments to share profits, there are two purposes, one is to increase the enthusiasm of local governments, and the other is to supervise accounts. After all, auditing alone cannot prevent all the drawbacks.

Speaking of Sansi Shop, the people present are obviously in spirit, and even Li Ruogu, who has been expressionless, does not feel that his waist has straightened up. The three-division shop in Luoyang is first of all to bring convenience to these dignitaries. Good things that can't be bought elsewhere can be bought in the shop, and the price is stable and the supply is sufficient. The shopping coupons issued by Sansi Shop are now more useful than gold and silver, easy to carry, and strong in value. (To be continued.) )
