In the eyes of many Han Chinese, northern China is a desolate grassland, with cold winters, and it is by no means a place for people to stay.

Needless to say, people are full of curiosity and fear about the vast sea, maybe the emperor will be interested overseas, after all, from the pre-Qin to the Western Han Dynasty, it has always been said that there are immortal mountains overseas, there are immortals in the mountains, and there is an elixir in the hands of the immortals.

To the south, it is a land of smoke and miasma, and I heard that the living people are there for less than three days, and they either die of disease or poisoning, and the natives are rampant and I heard that they will eat human flesh raw, so many people are respectful of the south.

To the west, the yellow sand is thousands of miles, and a large part of the Western Regions is so arid, there are really few people who are not aborigines who want to live here. There is very little precipitation here, and the land does not grow anything at all.

The Chinese people all have land plots, but they are only interested in land that can be cultivated. Limited by the backwardness of agricultural technology, as well as problems such as cold protection methods, smoke miasma treatment technology and naturalization of the natives, the Chinese people are not accustomed to looking beyond the Chinese ontology.

So land annexation again and again, then the people revolted, after the change of dynasty, and then a new round of land annexation, and so on and so on and again and again fell into a dead loop.

Now, it seems to be completely different, when Fang Yun told everyone about the map and even some preliminary investigations, everyone was very interested in extraterritorial private ownership.

In particular, according to the latest regulations, there is a one-month 'naturalization period' for newly occupied people. Within this period, if the other party is willing to naturalize, then it must be treated as a 'quasi-Hanmin', and after the sinicization is completed, you can obtain the status of 'Hanmin'. And those who are not willing to naturalize, are caught a month later. will be relegated to slavery.

This order meant the legalization of slave hunting. But it really counts. Fang Yun had already engaged in this kind of 'labor transaction' with Shi Xie earlier, so it was not a strange thing.

Nowadays, the wages of the Han people are rising, and many workshop and mine owners are also eager to reduce costs. Obviously, slaves are the best substitute, even if there is a decrease in efficiency, after all, there is no need to pay wages.

This decree is not just extraterritorial. Even the barbarians such as Yangzhou, Southwest Barbarian, and Wuxi Man were effective, and the Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Qiang people in the north were even more effective. However, the decree will eventually be announced at the year-end court, and now it is only an agenda.

This law was passed immediately, and the rest was a matter of improvement, during which Fang Yun selected Jiaozhou as the test site, and within half a year, this decree was implemented for the tribes and barbarians that had already been explored, and those that had been newly explored.

To put it simply: "Naturalize or be a slave forever!" ”

There are manpower. In addition, with the completion of the new agricultural plan, there will be no food problems in the whole country. It is complemented by high-yielding crops such as potatoes. Crops like cotton protect against the cold, even in a desolate place like the north, or an arid place like the northwest, it shouldn't be a problem to survive.

It is true that there is no suitable place for cultivation in the northwest, but there are also a lot of minerals. These minerals are ownerless, and after the exploration was discovered, the Western Regions announced the bidding, which immediately attracted many merchants from the Central Plains to mine.

These merchants brought with them a lot of laborers, even slaves. They mine the ore, and then there are other merchants who provide food and lodging, and even some basic services. Under the arrangement of Xi Zhicai, settlements began to appear around a mine, farmland began to appear, governments began to appear, and then the rudiments of a town began to take shape here.

In this way, the northwest was developed by Xi Zhicai, and in addition to the steady flow of grain and other commodities in the Central Plains, many civil and military personnel saw the prospect of extraterritorial private ownership.

If you stay away from China, stay away from China, even if it is outside the territory, it is better to be a lord with a fiefdom than to stay in Huaxia and worry that your mansion will be taken back by the government if you don't know when.

This is also what Fang Yun hopes to see, these families are moving outside the territory one after another, so that the local proletariat and small landlords will have a way to live. When they also become large landowners, a new family will be formed, and they will also have fiefdoms belonging to their families abroad, and then a new round of migration will take place.

In this way, the whole world will be the fiefdom of the Chinese magnates, and these new territories will not be cheapened by foreigners because they are not governed, and Fang Yun and his descendants will also be able to make profits behind the scenes.

Shi Xie did not have any objection to the 'naturalization order', and even supported the implementation of this law. For the literati, whether they are Confucian or not, they are very willing to do it.

As for those who do not obey the royal way, he thinks it is very reasonable to be reduced to slaves! He even recommended the Wuxi Barbarian King Shamoke to come forward to assist and help Fang Yun experiment with the 'naturalization order' in Jiaozhou.

Needless to say, about forty percent of the barbarians chose to naturalize and began to work in the cities, or to work in the countryside to become a 'quasi-Han people', and at the same time began to learn Chinese and Chinese characters in night schools, learn the etiquette of the Han people, and after the study and assessment, they can become a real Han people.

The other sixty percent are unwilling to naturalize, and what awaits them is the destruction of the tribe. Among these sixty percent of the barbarians, thirty percent died in the war, and the remaining thirty percent were captured and transported to the north for auction as war spoils, and some were left in Jiaozhou for auction, and from now on, they were no longer human beings, but 'slaves' sold as commodities. Of course, that's another story.

In contrast, Fang Yun promulgated the 'Abolition of Slavery Law', which was only issued for Han slaves, saying that from now on, Han people could no longer be used as slaves, and all servants and servants would be employed as contract workers, in short, long-term and short-term workers, and would be 'employed' by families and merchants.

As compensation, the state was willing to triple the cost of purchasing these slaves to the families or merchants.

These two decrees made everyone realize that Fang Yun actually had a double standard: it doesn't matter if it is not me, Han people, whether they live or die; It's my Hanmin gods and ghosts that don't invade, otherwise the ghosts will come to kill the ghosts, and the gods will kill the gods! Fortunately, the latter is also an experimental period, and will only be implemented in the merged states for the time being, and after the year-end court, according to the results of the experiment, the final changes will be made, officially promoted, or postponed, or even abolished. Again, that's a few months away......

The mid-year pilgrimage meeting is over, and all that remains is to wait for the results of the results. finally lived a few days of peace, Fang Yun played with several children all day long, and the eldest son Fang Ji was more sticky to Fang Yun than other younger brothers and sisters, always pestering him to be coquettish. It is said that the daughter is the father and the child is the mother, but it is completely different from Fang Ji.

Fortunately, he is not weak, but he has a greater attachment to his father, judging from the current stage of his homework, Fang Ji is also both civil and military, and it is rare to have the help of Hua Tuo and Tong Yuan, and he will not be brainwashed by Confucianism.

Fang Yun hoped that his children would have an offensive spirit, after all, the earth was just the starting point, and his goal was still all civilizations outside the universe. If he can, he hopes that his children can fly out of the earth to the universe, and if they can become the real ruler of the universe, at least the ruler of a certain galaxy, then even if he dies, he can smile Jiuquan.

The good days had not been two days after the results, and in August, a secret letter from the Yizhou branch of the Han Soul Organization was sent to Fang Yun through Jia Xu.

At that time, Fang Yun thought that Liu Zhang was disobedient again, secretly recruiting troops or something, but when he opened it, he found that he was in trouble. This trouble was not caused by him, but it was really related to his father Liu Yan.

It turned out that when Liu Yan entered Shu, he recruited many refugees who fled to Yizhou in Nanyang and other places as soldiers, obviously thinking that they were outsiders, and in order to better control Yizhou from being overheaded, it was necessary to have forces loyal to them.

It's just that Liu Yan still spoiled this unit called the 'Dongzhou Army', so that they bullied men and women in Yizhou, and offended the families here, among them, there was a family head named Zhao Wei, so he couldn't bear this breath.

According to intelligence, Zhao Wei has begun to secretly recruit troops, and actively run to the gates of Yizhou to seek help. Rebellion will start around September. His purpose is also very simple, that is, to drive Liu Zhang, an outsider, out of Yizhou and realize the basic concept of 'Shu people governing Shu'.

"Judging from Wenhe, if Zhao Wei wants to raise troops, what are the chances of winning?" Fang Yun asked.

"Less than 30%!" Jia Xu returned truthfully.

"Why is it so low, it is said that he is also a famous family in Yizhou, and there are at least tens of thousands of people who can follow, right?" Fang Yun asked.

"The rabble has nothing to worry about, but the Dongzhou army will naturally not sit idly by. It's about whether they will be killed, if they really want to encounter Zhao Wei's attack, how can they not resist desperately? As long as he resisted for a month or two, Zhao Wei lacked food and grass, and the soldiers could not see any hope of winning, so they would naturally scatter. At that time, what awaits Zhao Wei is nothing more than Liu Zhang's liquidation. Jia Xu returned.

"What if we help?" Fang Yun asked again.

"If the lord wants to make a move, the minister recommends helping Liu Zhang!" Jia Xu bowed his hand and said.

Fang Yun was stunned for a moment, and then he roughly understood the meaning of his words. I just think, isn't this too early?

"My lord, when the judgment is constantly suffering, it will be chaotic. It's a rare opportunity to quickly annex Yizhou, don't miss it! Jia Xu said sincerely, in his opinion, Fang Yun didn't have the first time, and it was unreasonable to capture Yizhou by the way.

Jiaozhou has now ceded its military power, and that's it, Yizhou is still semi-independent. Standing state. Even if it is not actually harmful, it still involves a lot of troops. Since Liu Zhang will be destroyed sooner or later, why not finish it as soon as possible?

"I see!" Fang Yun weighed it carefully, and finally made up his mind. (To be continued.) )

PS: I checked the major events in 201, and it just happened to find the incident of Zhao Wei's rebellion...... Originally, I didn't plan to fight in two years, but if I missed such an opportunity, it would be really stupid.
