Wang Ju is grinding foreign workers, and Qian Mingyi can't wait.

Zheng Baiqu can't share a lot of credit, but he can always get some fishy smell. For example, some time ago, Wang Ju began to snap again, although the court was distracted by Wang Anshi, and even everyone stopped impeaching Wang Ju, but someone came to him for trouble, saying again that he was incompetent and could not be crowned.

When the completion of Zheng Baiqu is completed, I can cover up a little ugliness, and in order to repair the canal, I am enduring and forbearing.

He rode to the weir and saw Wang Ju and asked, "Why are there only these people?" ”

"There are a lot of people, just this weir."

"It can't be delayed any longer, and if it is delayed any longer, after the autumn flood, there will be no water in this weir."

"That's not going to happen, there will still be floods in the middle of September, unless there is a drought in Guanzhong immediately."

"It's too slow, fix it sooner."

"Qian Gong, you misunderstood, the manpower is not small, too much, a waste of labor. There is no urgency to divert water here, but the cultivation over there is the most important thing, and the lower officials divided the fields in advance and turned them over in time, so that they could grab some winter wheat. You know how tight the grain is in Shaanxi, such as Jingyuan Road last year. ”

Qian Mingyi was speechless.

In the past few years, there has been a drought in Shaanxi, and there has been a slight drought in the third year of Zhiping, although it is not as serious as Sima Guang said, and it has indeed affected grain production. In the four years of peace, there was another frost and drought in the border areas. Last year was a little better, but there was another drought on the side of Jingyuan Road. Then Cai Ting obeyed Zhang Zaijian, distributed the hoarded military rations in a timely manner, and also transferred a batch of grain from Zhengbaiqu. The amount was not much, but Zheng Baiqu also provided a lot of grain to Suizhou in the form of exchange. Furthermore. Grain for this year's construction. It is also from Zheng Baiqu. To this day. Zheng Baiqu spent no more than 4 million yuan, if it were not for the gradual self-protection of this grain, the state expenditure would have increased by more than 1 million!

There is a drought every year, but the drought is not strict. But what if there is a year of great drought?

In this way, Wang Ju allocated the cultivated land in advance according to the situation, and it was right for the people and soldiers to cultivate and sow seeds in time.

And the Yu Wei of the card is still there, in order to divide the field, the year before and last year were very quarrelsome. Only this year on the other hand, quieter and more tranquil lì.

Qian Mingyi didn't dare to participate in the division of the field, but he also sent people to pay attention, it seems that only a few families made trouble, it was indeed Wang Ju who sent people to investigate, but he didn't find out clearly, there were more hidden fields, and Wang Ju had less points, and Wang Ju made adjustments again after confirmation. Several houses were quiet.

Qian Mingyi breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

But Wang Ju is not only for this reason, he continued: "Moreover. The scale of the canal is much larger than I originally planned, if not large, but it can be larger, but the water flow is limited, and with so much water, the irrigation area increases, and then all the irrigation areas are short of water again, and the gains outweigh the losses. This is the last weir and a relatively large weir, if it is built, it can irrigate more than 10,000 acres of cultivated land. However, when it comes to this one, I have to be more careful. Qian Gong, if you don't come, I'm going to ride a horse downstream to measure it and see how the water level is. This water level determines the extent of the aqueduct. If the water level is tight, the aqueduct must be shortened. However, how to observe, it is necessary to wait until the surrounding arable land has begun to be cultivated and irrigated, and the standard measurement number can be obtained. Qian Gong, so he can't be in a hurry. ”

Anyway, Qian Mingyi didn't understand much, and after some flickering, Qian Mingyi had nothing to say.

"How many hectares of arable land can be irrigated?"

"To be precise, it is about 40,600 hectares, and the specific amount depends on how many hectares of cultivated land this weir can irrigate in the end."

"How much arable land will be added?"

"It's really hard to say, but Qian Gong, is this important? It is important that they are all in the national register. ”

If it is not in the field register, how can it be taxed.

This is where the problem lies, for example, in the first year of Zhiping, the money was nearly 37 million yuan, the silk silk was 8.7 million horses, the grain was nearly 27 million stones, and the grass was 29 million bunches. But there are gold, silver, copper, iron, tin, and carbon, among other things, which can constitute the complete income of the Song Dynasty. However, the two taxes were less than 5 million yuan, the silk silk was more than 3.7 million yuan, and the grain was 18 million stones. This is what Wang Ju knows. That is, the revenue of the two taxes is less than 30 million. Of course, there was a terrible flood that year, otherwise it would have been more.

But in normal years, the two taxes are only more than 40 million.

Falling on 7 million hectares of cultivated land, this pressure will be pitiful, even if it is combined with the disguised exploitation of local officials, the people can bear it. But what about two million hectares of arable land?

Qian Mingyi let Wang Ju flicker away.

But Hou Ke and Yang Pan are not easy to fool.

Yang Pan said with some dissatisfaction: "Zi'an, it's slow." ”

At this time, when it comes to the real sweeping project, it is really not necessary to need so much labor, but at present, the labor on the drain is inevitably too little.

And Yang Pan was forced by Wang Ju, and he had to do a lot of things himself, but after all, he was in his early fifties, and after a few years, he couldn't bear it. Therefore, he is more eager to end it earlier than Qian Mingyi.

Hou Ke's mentality is slightly better, but he has also suffered a lot in the past few years, especially in two positions, it is impossible to say that he is not tired.

"Yang Gou, I have written a chapter and handed it to the imperial court, and it will be completed before the Double Ninth Festival in September. It happened that during this time, the imperial court was waiting for the book to be removed. You still have the same job to resume, Hou Zhixian's own job is to know the county, but where am I going? Besides, this time everyone has made contributions, won't the court be promoted? At least one Zhizhou. ”

Wang Anshi relegated those people to governors in various places, and some people felt aggrieved, but for the three of them, even if it was a small state governor, it was good.

"You're a philistine." Yang Pan said.

"Yang Gou, a gentleman loves money, and he takes it in a good way, this is what the master said. is not only the love of money, but also the love of officials, the same is true of the love of the gentleman and the love of the official, and the same is the right way. We work hard to get promoted based on merit and political achievements, and this is the way. ”

"Don't say it, everything tastes bad in your mouth." Yang Pan finally amused him.

However, he also looked at the eastern sky with some hope in his eyes, he really didn't want to be promoted?

Hou Ke said: "I don't care, it's just that Jing Jing thinks about my two nephews every day." ”

"Didn't Cheng Gong get reused by the imperial court?" Wang Ju pretended to be crazy and asked stupidly.

"Hao'er is an appointed official, and Yi'er is still teaching...... But Zi'an. After entering the capital this time. For the sake of the old man's face. Take a look. ”

This sentence seems a little strange, Cheng Hao's reputation is much greater than that of Wang, don't look at the battle of Dashun City, it is a military merit, and there may not be many people in Confucianism.

And Cheng Hao's current official position is higher than Wang Ju.

Isn't it possible to get summoned by the emperor every year?

In Confucianism, Dacheng is very famous, but in the officialdom, Wang Jucai is a red seedling. That's why Hou Kecai said this. Maybe it wasn't his words, but what his wife said, and Tohou said it with his mouth.

"Who can say what will happen in the future," Wang Ju said vaguely.

But he said in his heart, "I don't dare to associate with your two nephews."

…………

"General Miao, General Wang, General Yao, I called you here for one thing."

"Zi'an, please command." Miao taught.

"Look at the hills." Wang Ju pointed to a hilly area in the northwest and said, "This hill is all dirt mountains, and I have built a water weir to the east of it. And opened an aqueduct to this hill, this barren area of cultivated land, I have not been allocated, one is barren, the other is to stay for great use. You can find some alfalfa and reeds to plant nearby, and in the future, you will see if you can put three or four battalions of Baojie cavalry. ”

The Baojie cavalry and the Fanluo cavalry are not forbidden cavalry, they are both permanent troops, so the first premise is that there is a place to raise horses.

"But where did the war horse come from?" Wang Jun Wandao.

Needless to say, the benefits of cavalry come from, but where do the horses come from?

"Not long ago, I received a news that the imperial court edict was sent to appease Wang Shao and appease Yuluograd."

This edict was given to Wang Shao's name and shelter from the wind and waves.

In fact, the whole thing has nothing to do with the imperial court, after Wang Shao got the job of the witty text that he didn't know the rank, he immediately targeted Yuluograd, the name of the Han people is Yu Longke, and there are several reasons for targeting him, one is that his tribe is in the area of Guweicheng, close to Qinzhou, and it is super large, Weimingshan surrendered to the Song Dynasty, and the ministry account is only 10,000 households, and his ministry account is 120,000 households! It is known as the largest family account in Qingtang.

Secondly, this person has a very heavy Song Dynasty complex, and there is a possibility of surrender.

Therefore, he came to Qingtang alone with a few entourages and found Yu Longke, which was very common in the Han and Tang dynasties, such as Ban Chao and Wang Xuance. But in the Song Dynasty, there was only Wang Shao.

If someone else dares to change it, how can you open the exit? Comrade Xiaoke, surrender. Nine times out of ten, it's ready to snap.

But Xiao Ke was very moved, but thought that Wang Shao was very sincere, the two hugged their sister and drank a little wine, and chatted all night, Yu Longke decided to attach it.

Not only is it attached, but he himself also entered the capital in person to meet Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji was overjoyed, and a 120,000 people blinded him and immediately met him. Yu Longke said: "The minister heard that Bao Zheng is a loyal minister, please give the minister the surname Bao." ”

Zhao Ji gave Bao Shun.

However, a new question arises, does Wang Shao have the right to do so? It seems that there are, there are those four big words that act cheaply. But it doesn't seem to be. Therefore, Zhao Xuan was confused and gave a position to appease the envoy, and said that Wang Shao was appeased by edict. In fact, the real right is Sun Yong, the governor of Qinzhou, but he doesn't have that ability, on the contrary, Wang Shao is appeasing Yu Longke, Qinzhou has an accident, because he does not pay attention to border defense, he was touched by the Xixia people to the north of Qinzhou Liugou Fort, under the sudden attack, the fort was broken, and the guard Fan Yuan and the soldiers were killed countless people.

Zhao Ji was furious and replaced Sun Yong with Li Shizhong.

This insider Wang Ju will not explain much, there is still time, Wang Shao will digest all these 120,000 people, the time will not be short, and there are Li Shizhong and Xiang Bao to hinder.

But this time is running out, after the battle to recover Hehuang began, these generals, including a part of the Baojie army, had better be sent to Qinzhou. Actual combat is the best way to grow. Therefore, Wang Ju's plan must be revised, and the speed must be accelerated.

"Yurogler?"

"There is a Han named Yu Longke, but His Majesty gave the name Baoshun, and his tribe has 120,000 people, spread all over the ancient Weicheng to Taoshui."

One hundred and twenty thousand came out, and the three generals all gasped.

"Therefore, I plan to exchange some war horses with him, and this is my letter to Wang Shao." Wang Ju took out a letter and handed it to the generals to watch.

began to say it very politely, and praised Wang Shao's achievements by the way.

It doesn't have to be fought, and the soldiers who can subjugate people without fighting are the highest level of using soldiers.

Then he said one thing, what the court did, Wang Ju didn't care, but he had two good things in his hands, one was sucrose, which was about to come out, and the other was soju. Please Wang Shao plan, there is Yu Longke over there to come forward and use the strength of the two to expand the number of sales to the Tibetan people. Of course, in this process, Wang Shao can set up a department and get a part of the profits, so that he can act better and cheaply. Yu Longke was also able to gain some benefits for the benefit of his people, so as to alleviate the discontent of his people and hasten the integration of his tribe with the Song Dynasty.

At the end, he asked Wang Shao to get more than a thousand good horses in the process of redeeming huàn, not more than 10,000, but one or two thousand war horses, which is not a big number for the Yu Longke tribe.

"Good idea." The three said.

Wang Ju smiled dumbly. (To be continued......) R1292
