Section 948 Rectification (3)
Liu Che thought for a while, looked at Ji Di who was standing on the side, and said, "Ji Aiqing, I remember, when I was still in the hidden mansion, I told Qing and the others......"
"The shadow of calamity has already shown signs!"
"The minister remembers...... "How could Ji Di forget?"
In fact, all those present at that time did not forget the terrible future depicted by His Highness at that time, and now the Son of Heaven.
The weather will get colder and the rain will be less and less.
Many vast Daze will dry up, and the geography and landforms of many places will change.
At that time, everyone was young.
Spirited and enthusiastic.
They are determined to let the people of the world get through that terrible crisis.
And in recent years, after taking power, Ji Huang has also heard the sound of the approaching disaster from the official documents of the world and the reports from various places.
In the four years since his accession to the throne, there have been more than a dozen regional disasters (involving at least one county), and even four or five disasters that have affected several counties.
There were earthquakes, there were floods, there were droughts, there were snowstorms.
What's even more terrifying is that the precursor to the terrible scene between the shadows depicted in the bamboo book also appeared.
In just five years, Hengshan was hit by three major hailstorms.
Last year, there was a hail disaster, and the hail that fell from the sky was one foot eight inches long, and even houses were smashed, and some people were even killed by the hailstones.
And the water level of the big river, for three consecutive years, has seen very unstable fluctuations.
This is a clear signal of reduced rainfall upstream.
Therefore, the ministers of the original Qiandi, once released, were desperately repairing water conservancy.
Zhang Tang built a 100-mile channel in Feng County, and also dug 30 wells for irrigation.
He went to Nanyang to take up his post, and after he arrived, he heard that the first thing he was engaged in was water conservancy.
The same is probably true for others.
As a result, there are folk songs: the Son of Heaven is happy to channel, all officials are prosperous, today's Longshou Canal, tomorrow's praise slope, and the day after tomorrow to dig Kunming Pool.
"In addition to the teaching of the best of the earth's strength, overhaul of water conservancy and channels, this is also a way to avoid disaster!" Liu Che pointed to those workshops and said, "At least, these workshops can feed people!" ”
In troubled times, it's good to have a stutter.
Crafts and workshops, indeed, are a road that can absorb the surplus population and feed them.
Let's not talk about it, let's take a look at the government reports and archives of the current Han family.
The Shaofu had hundreds of thousands of members, of whom at least one-third were craftsmen who did not work hard and specialized in production and manufacturing, and one-third were prisoners who were regarded as consumables and even more lowly chengdan sikong.
And the world is so prosperous in industry and commerce.
It is conservatively estimated that the current Han family, the number of people who rely on workshops and trading as their living conditions is at least one million!
And that's not counting the rangers, ruffians, and scoundrels who live on this chain.
If it were a purely agrarian society, with such a large number of people, detached from production and not working, there would have been a big problem long ago.
But the Han dynasty is no longer a purely agricultural society.
The population of the world is constantly multiplying, and the land production is also increasing.
In particular, the area under cultivation of winter wheat is expanding.
The high yield of winter wheat alone is enough to overwhelm corn and sorghum.
At present, the reason why Guanzhong still maintains the advantage of corn planting area is just due to inertia.
If the common people don't grow corn, their hearts will not be steady.
But this situation did not last long.
As the whaling industry continues to expand, whale bone meal is enough to meet the fertilizer needs of Guanzhong and even Daguanzhong.
The day when corn will be reduced to a supporting role is just around the corner.
Guanzhong is down, and there is only Jing Cong in the world.
In the south, the yield of rice will also be higher and higher after the introduction of several high-yielding rice varieties from South Vietnam.
Therefore, in such a situation, the Han family already has the capital to let another million people join the ranks of industry and commerce.
Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh.
Liu Che has been methodically adjusting his strategy according to the actual situation.
But......
There is another problem, a problem that will only arise and arise in China, and it needs to be solved by Liu Che.
Liu Che set his sights on the workers in these workshops.
Their sweat and waving arms, as well as their eyes full of anger and resentment, made Liu Che tremble a little involuntarily.
These are the Chinese people, the Chinese people!
They have overthrown countless tyrannies and sent countless kings and rulers to hell.
Even in ancient times, they voted with their feet and killed leaders who did not meet their wishes.
Not to mention, the riot of the countrymen who expelled King Li was enough to sober anyone up.
And in the annals of the Spring and Autumn Period, the names of the kings who were exiled and killed by the countrymen add up enough to fill a book.
What's more, there is also a more vivid example of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang.
Emperor General?
It's a P!
Whoever makes them unhappy, they will inevitably make someone unhappy!
Intensive production methods such as workshops and future factories will undoubtedly provide the best breeding ground for riots and uprisings among the common people.
Therefore, Liu Checai said that these businessmen are dying!
Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, relying on 800 people, rose up and killed the invincible Qin Empire, causing the Qin Dynasty that swept and hung the world to collapse.
Prince Ying of Qin and other nobles of the Qin State were killed by Xiang Yu like dogs.
In the face of such a force, even Liu Che, the emperor, had to tremble and serve carefully.
Why do these businessmen think that they can exploit them like this without being cut off and taken back as a ball?
You know, this is the Western Han Dynasty!
The Great Revanchism advocated by the Ram faction prevailed in the Western Han Dynasty.
If you slap me, I will definitely slap back the Western Han.
The gentleman takes revenge, and it is not too late for 10,000 years in the Western Han Dynasty!
Do you really think that the people are dogs and will let them **** and exploit?
Liu Che has already seen a tragedy unfolding.
"Scumbags who can't even exploit!" Liu Che smiled coldly in his heart.
……………………………………
At this time, the various workshops also noticed that something was wrong.
A nobleman with dozens of retinues, pointing and whispering at their doorstep, even a fool knows that something is wrong.
Not to mention, the attitude of the nobleman's entourage towards his master was already extremely humble.
And these retinues ......
It makes many people feel familiar.
"The one over there, it seems to be the Shangshu of Lantai......" In one of the workshops, a supervisor in charge whispered to his superior.
"Boss, it's terrible! Look, doesn't that person over there look like Li Shizhong? There was also a whisper in the other workshop.
Everyone is from Chang'an, and even the children of the Dajia family who come and go in and out of the nobles.
How can you not remember the appearance of a few noble people?
Fortunately, the only ones who can be sent here are the concubines and side branches of various families.
It's still the same sentence - the gentleman is far away from the kitchen.
The powerful families who claim to be gentlemen, although they have to do business and make money, they also have to pretend.
It is rare that there will be a son-in-law of a descendant family who is willing to come here.
The clan wouldn't allow them to come here.
Even the Tian family, who was born as a businessman, is the same.
Everyone is busy washing their hands and preparing to take the exam to become an official, and they will not and cannot come to these places.
This is also another embodiment of Junzi's thinking of cooking.
As long as you can't see it, you can assume that it didn't happen.
Just like King Qi Xuan.
But, that alone, it's surprising enough.
Lantai's Shangshu and Wuguan Zhonglang's servants under the yamen have always been the two forces that defend the royal family.
Now, like his grandson, these two groups of people are surrounded by a nobleman.
The identity of this nobleman, I am afraid that the relationship with the royal family, can not be described as close.
It can only be said that he is a member of the royal family, and at least one of the most intimate siblings of today, and perhaps even the Son of Heaven himself.
Many people panicked all at once.
Even the stupidest of them knew that this place could never be known from above. 、
Once you are stabbed in front of the Son of Heaven, everything is over!
The best outcome is also to lose your head.
And at this moment, on the distant horizon, a large cavalry appeared.
The sound of horses' hooves shook the earth.
Many workshops were dumbfounded when they heard this.
…………………………………………………………
When Liu Che arrived in the army, he quietly left with his attendants.
He was no longer ready to meddle in the affairs here.
Things here must be controlled within certain limits.
Just don't let people know and see.
Then, in the same way, according to the theory of 'gentlemen are far away from cooking', courtiers and scholars can also be regarded as not having this thing.
"Ju Meng, you take someone to seal up all the workshops, all the workers are immediately sent home, and all the people in charge are taken into custody and detained in Anling Prison...... "Liu Che got into the carriage and instructed Ju Meng.
Anling is the mausoleum of Emperor Hui.
Many people may not know that Anling is the largest group of imperial mausoleums among the emperors of the Han dynasty.
At the beginning, after Emperor Hui was buried, the entire Anling Tomb was like a city, and even tens of thousands of people lived there.
But it didn't happen.
After the death of Emperor Hui, after the rebellion of Zhulu, Emperor Hui's bloodline was completely cut off.
Now, Anling is deserted like a ghost town.
Except for the officials and soldiers appointed by the Han family to guard the tomb out of the sake of face, there are basically no other living people in the local area.
Detaining these principals in Anling can minimize the impact.
"Then order someone to summon the Tian family, the Anling family, the Meng family, the Yang family, the Bing family, the Shi family and other family masters to the Guantao Mansion!" Liu Che then ordered, "I will go to the Guantao Mansion tonight to hear what explanation they have?" ”
Do you want to develop your business?
OK!
But it must follow Liu Che's beat and rhythm.
If you are disobedient, you can kick it out!
Of course, obedient people have candy to eat!
At least, Liu Che intends to educate them well!
Is there something they exploit like this?
There's no big picture at all, it's just a rush to die!
If it weren't for Liu Che's interest today, he found out that they were dying.
I'm afraid that in another year and a half, when the scale of this place is getting bigger and bigger, it can no longer be hidden.
All it takes is a spark seed, or even a leak in someone's mouth.
All of them have to hang up the street lamps! (To be continued.) )
PS: Well, the previous section seems to have taken the wrong title~~
It should be 947~
