Chapter 664: Warm-up

Wang Qi said: "Although the methods are somewhat cruel, but this time the use of troops, the imperial court has limited use, and the casualties are few, and almost no officers and soldiers are used. ”

This officer and soldier is not the officer and soldier under Wang Ju's tent, it is called the native soldiers, or the border soldiers of Quang Nam, which is an army composed mainly of barbarians. Wang Qi's officers and soldiers refer to the real forbidden soldiers.

If we analyze it from this angle, it is true that not many officers and soldiers were used, but they began to transfer thousands of soldiers and horses, and later some people still did not adapt to the scorching hot weather in the south, and many of them were transferred back one after another.

As for the usage, if you look at it from the perspective of the imperial court, it is indeed very little, how much silk can Guangnan provide to Wang Ju? The special appropriation of the imperial court is only 10 million, but Wang Ju has been in Guangnan for two and a half years, and the income of the Kapok Division is more than 10 million. Moreover, the seafarers would also pay three million in interest to the imperial court.

But the actual use is more than 10 million!

If the imperial court elephant Wang Ju did this, the cost would be an astonishing amount, not only the direct cost, but also, the use of so many ships, and most of them are luxurious large sea ships, isn't it the cost? So the actual cost is astronomical.

However, the reason why Lao Wang said this is because Wang Ju made it very clear before going to Guangnan that he wanted the horses to run and the horses not to eat grass, so the ministers would have to use some extraordinary means, and I hope that the court will not blame them at that time.

It's been said a long time ago.

Could it be that at this time, the imperial court will not be able to repent?

Zhao Ji also smiled dumbly, not only did he say it earlier, he sent an envoy last year, and Wang Ju also said that the minister is a person who walks between dawns. On one side is darkness. On one side is light. On one side is the executioner, and on the other side is the good minister. The Song Dynasty had many ills, and if the ministers wanted to bring the Song Dynasty from the darkness to the other side of the light, they would use some drastic means.

Can you expect a teenager who killed the black bee thieves and led the villagers to defeat the Western Xia plundering army to be as gentle and elegant as these scholars in the court?

It's impossible.

He muttered, "But how do you move the people?" ”

You can't force the people into the ships.

Cai did say coldly: "Your Majesty, it can be apportioned by the state capitals, and now my dynasty is not the beginning of the Tang Dynasty." The people of Shandong were so empty that Wei Zhengjin advised Tang Taizong not to seal the Zen, so as not to covet the Hu people after seeing it. Fortunately, thanks to the mercy of our ancestors, since the founding of the country, there has been no sparse population. ”

So some people say that Zhao Kuangyin is an elder, he may not be so good, if it is really good, can he usurp the Chai family? Look at Chai Rong's children again, which one has a good end?

Moreover, there is also the massacre of Jiangzhou.

However, Zhao Kuangyin destroyed a country and immediately took a break to recuperate for two to three years. Then figure the next country. Such an approach has not hurt China's muscles and bones. Not only the Song Dynasty, the Southern Tang Dynasty, the Wu Yue Dynasty, the Southern Han Dynasty, and the Min State, these countries did not lose many people. Therefore, when Zhao Kuangyi destroyed the Northern Han Dynasty, the number of households in the Northern Song Dynasty reached more than 6.4 million households, but after Zhao Kuangyi's two northern expeditions failed, the number of households dropped to more than 5 million households in the third year of the Dao, of course, it was not the number of ordinary people who declined, and in order to avoid paying taxes, they became displaced and hidden households. However, by the time of Song Zhenzong, it was immediately restored to nearly nine million households.

Looking at the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there were only two million households on such a large territory.

Therefore, from this point of view, it is not impossible for Song Taizu to be called an elder.

This is the real in-depth historical analysis.

Zhao Ji's forehead.

"That's why it's densely populated and the land is tense. However, although Cochin is more southern, it is a real land of fish and rice. Cai Qu glanced at the large and small rivers on the map again and said.

There is water to survive, poor north, there has been a shortage of water, where are there so many dense rivers.

"It used to be remote, but now there are so many sea ships that can come and go, please pay attention to them...... Make sure that state officials cooperate. ”

This is the change brought by Wang Ju.

Last year, the scale of overseas shipbuilding was gradually reduced, but it has not completely stopped, and it continues to be built, but the ships are larger and more advanced.

So some backward ships were eliminated and sold almost at cost price on Quang Nam East Road. This cost price was sold in the Song Dynasty, which would be very amazing, a 500-ton sea ship may cost more than 10,000 guan in the Song Dynasty, but in Wang Ju's hands, it was often sold for only four or five thousand.

So much so that many people don't believe it, thinking that there is a problem with the quality of the ship, or Wang Ju guarantees it, otherwise the price is so low that everyone dare not buy it.

Wang Ju vouched, there are some people who finally bought it, there are still a lot of people who know the boat, one sails down, the ship is good or not, you can see it immediately, and now the people who buy it are beginning to rejoice, but the people who dare not buy it regret it.

However, many people have also begun to build ships in the dockyard, and in the future, once this migration of people is over, Wang Ju will let his subordinates eliminate many ships, but they will be berthed in Dongliang Port and sold to various maritime merchants. That is, under the impetus of Wang Ju, it may be that the scale of navigation in the Song Dynasty can gradually catch up with the peak of the Southern Song Dynasty.

Cai was indeed in the capital, although he didn't know it completely, but he heard some news.

With sea ship transportation, it was possible to benefit the Song Dynasty. Wang Ju is right, the north has always been short of grain, relying on the southeast to maintain, but the southeast is becoming more and more densely populated, and the people in the southeast cannot not eat and transport grain to the north together. Then the large-scale development of Quang Nam and Cochin will be able to further ease this grain burden.

And the evacuation is the destitute people, these people usually do not collect much money and taxes, but when the disaster comes, the imperial court needs to allocate a large amount of money and food to relieve the disaster.

This mentality is very bad......

Including Wang Anshi's mentality, it is not very good, just like Liaoguo, because of the disaster in Youzhou this year, all displaced people were exempted from paying taxes for three years, so that the people could relieve their pressure. But in order to accumulate wealth, the policies of the Song Dynasty turned back more and more.

However, it is precisely because of this mentality that Cai does support Wang Ju's approach.

Cai did support, and Zeng Xiaokuan also spoke: "Your Majesty, when the minister's period of worry expires, on the way to Beijing, I still see many extremely poor people living in difficulty. However, in the surrounding states and counties of Quanzhou, no one can see their children drowning alive. However, it is far away from Quanzhou, because the news is blocked, there is still this situation. And not just the poorest. Some third- and fourth-class households also drowned their children. Without him, he would not be able to feed many children. Therefore, the migration of some people to Cochin is also a good strategy to evacuate the dense population, and Cochin is not overseas. ”

The main thing is overseas!

If you migrate to Lingnan and Cochin, do you need to worry?

Lu Gongzhu couldn't say any more, so he had to say: "In this way, the southeast is in turmoil again." ”

Among other things, so many destitute people have migrated away. Where do the landlords go to find tenant farmers? Can you not be angry? Besides, how many people themselves are willing to go to the south? That can only be forcibly moved, can the people not be in turmoil?

"This is not a commotion, but a rescue!" Cai Qu said.

Changing the law is a commotion, and relocating the people and giving them a way to live is also a commotion, so why not do it?

Lu Gong said wryly: "In this way, Jiaozhi has been destroyed, and Wang Ju can be summoned to Beijing." ”

You can't keep Wang Ju in the south to plague the people of Jiaozhi......

"Not now, those Kunlun slaves haven't ......been resettled yet," Zhao said. And what is Wang Ju's bigger surprise...... I can't say anything about that.

"But how are these Kunlun slaves settled?" Wu Chong said worriedly, if the placement is not good. It will also be as turbulent as Jiaozhi, which is called sadness.

"Wu Qing, you write an edict and ask about it." Zhao Ji thought for a while and said, "That's it." ”

A few of the deacons retreated.

Zhao Ji looked at the thick atlas in a daze.

The edict was also delivered to Wang Ju with a special foot, after all, the autumn wind had risen and could not be delayed.

"Shaobao, the imperial court is really a contradiction, if Shaobao has a different heart, it is not the migration of the people to Jiaozhi, but overseas." Huang Hua said.

This migration is still dominated by destitute people, if they can survive, who wants to go to Jiaozhi?

However, these people migrated away, and after the number of people living in extreme poverty in the southeast declined, not many people migrated overseas. Or as Zeng Xiaokuan said, many areas of Fujian Road do not drown their own biological children, after all, they are their own biological children. The reason why they drowned them was that when they grew up, they had no land or property left to them, and they were still dead when they grew up. Now that there is a way out overseas, why not work hard and feed these children as adults, and send them overseas. But that's going to be a long time coming. The most lacking person is not the future, but the present. Just like this year, almost no people have migrated overseas.

Wang Ju has different intentions, isn't it stupid to do this?

"Mellow, you have to think about it on His Majesty's side." Wang Ju said with a smile, if you analyze it purely from the perspective of officialdom, Wang Ju is still very stupid this time, and he has exposed all his strength, including huge financial and material resources.

But Wang Ju doesn't regret it.

The Song Dynasty was fundamental, and the south was stable, especially Jiaozhi, more or less, which could make the Song Dynasty stronger. The Song Dynasty was strong, and overseas could be strong. The two can complement each other. Besides, Wang Juzhong is the country and the nation, not Zhao Ji himself. Anyway, I did it, and I just fought my wits and wits.

Wang Ju wrote an echo.

It is said that the center of gravity of the imperial court is the north, and Guo Kui went south, and the sacrifice was already very heavy, but Jiaozhi was not extinguished, and the south was unstable, which was a hidden danger. However, it is not worth it to pay huge sacrifices in the south to annihilate Jiaozhi. Therefore, some extraordinary means were used to make the scholars and doctors dislike it, and they knew that it was not good, but this was an unavoidable solution.

In a sense, it is indeed too cruel, and Wang Ju honestly "admits his mistakes".

The imperial court issued an edict and asked him to find a way to raise a large amount of grain and grass materials, which were originally used to settle the migrants, but they were handed over to the Kunlun slaves to reduce their deaths. However, in this case, the imperial court also had to draw large quantities of food and supplies from the southeast in order to allow the immigrants to survive the difficult time before the harvest.

"Wonderful." Huang Hua said.

If you want to be a good person, you have to pay for it.

With so many mouths open to eat, and to eat for more than half a year, the imperial court has to prepare a large amount of food and materials. See if these ministers are in pain? Huang Hua said again: "Shaobao, let Tao Xiyan them again, and tell the government that they only promise Shaobao to escort the people to Jiaozhi, not to carry grain for the imperial court, and the rest of the ships are ready to bring commercial goods overseas, if the imperial court wants to carry them, they must pay the boat fare, and offset the five million debts." ”

Now that the economy of the Song Dynasty has improved, there is no need to desperately post upside down.

In this way, these ministers will be more painful.

Wang Ju thought for a while and said, "It's okay." ”

If you want to be a virgin, then pay out of your pocket, and the economy is really tight in Wang Ju's hands. Then Wang Ju continued to write that as for the resettlement of the Kunlun slaves, he had sent people to the north to persuade the major main households in various states and counties, and let them exchange the tenant farmers in their hands for the Kunlun slaves. The first is to give these Kunlun slaves a way to live, the second is to break them up, so that they will no longer flow around like Jiaozhi, and the third is to relieve the labor pressure of each main household.

As for what will be cheaper to use Kunlun Nu, Wang Ju doesn't need to write it.

And this matter can't be hidden, and the court may know about it soon.

Wang Ju continued to write, so as long as the government cooperated, including the source of the migrating people, it would not be very difficult. At the same time, I hope that the imperial court will make a quick decision, otherwise if the monsoon is missed, it will be the coming year, and the people of the surrounding ethnic groups and countries will pour in in the coming year, and the imperial court will no longer be able to easily govern Jiaozhi, unless it is swept again.

After it was written, it was delivered to the capital with special feet.

Several prime ministers of the two governments looked at this letter, and some people felt that it was not very good, but in addition to this method, what other good strategies are there? Besides, there were "stories" in the past, such as the Tang Dynasty after the expropriation of Goguryeo, a large number of Goguryeo people were placed in Jianghuai.

Let's apportion it.

But they never dreamed that Wang Ju would begin to "destroy" the second country. The next few months will be lively, more and more lively, not only in the South, but also in Comrade Dasu...... The current rip-off is just a small warm-up. (To be continued......)
