See Long Zaitian Chapter 194 Population is the primary productive force

There are still a large number of barbarians in Toyosu City, all of whom are registered, and those who make trouble or engage in sabotage. Chen Ye directly ordered his soldiers to be killed directly, and there was no need to report it. On this day, it is forbidden to kill the poor people, and those who used to make trouble can also observe as long as they are honest.

The next day, the smell of blood could be smelled in Fengzhou City, and there were too many people killed, and the barbarians captured Fengzhou City several times, but they did not kill so much. Many people began to be afraid of Chen Ye, and the people of Fengzhou City, who were killed this night, trembled when they heard Chen Ye's name.

Post a notice, as long as you are willing to sign up for the construction of the city wall, you can take care of food, and you will also be paid. Many people think it's okay to take care of the food, so they sign up.

In addition to maintaining training, Chen Ye's fire army also participated in the construction of the city wall, and many people who were homeless or had no livelihood tried to sign up. As a result, after a day's work, I really take care of the food, and I will pay for it.

As more and more people spread, more and more people began to sign up to build the city wall, and more and more workers built on the city wall, and the city wall began to slowly regain its previous majestic momentum.

Chen Ye also expanded Fengzhou City, expanding to both sides, dividing it into one city, two cities, and three cities. The second city is the original Fengzhou City, the first city is within the border of Zhongshan Kingdom, the three cities are close to the barbarians, Chen Ye prepared the three cities are mainly responsible for trade, as long as there is trade, the people in Fengzhou City can be fed and clothed, and Fengzhou City will grow.

Slowly, a lot of materials are still being transported to Fengzhou City, and a large part of them are Chen Ye's living facilities, and Chen Ye doesn't want to wronged himself here. Some of them were specially transported for the development of Toyosu Castle.

Hearing the news of Chen Ye's arrival, there was one person who couldn't bear it for a long time, and that was Princess Pingyang. Pingyang couldn't stand it in the cave for a long time, and knowing that Chen Ye would be in Fengzhou City for a long time in the future, he couldn't wait to come over.

When she came to the gate of Fengzhou City, Princess Pingyang waited anxiously in exchange for the city gate being closed, and the guards guarding the city just didn't open the door.

"Who are you, and why did you come to Toyosu City?"

"You don't need to know, open the door for me." Princess Pingyang began to kick and pound at the city gate, so that the guards would not open the door even more.

"I want to see Chen Ye, I want to see Chen Bao, open the door for me." The guards were even more indifferent when they heard this, the adult had just come to Fengzhou City for a short time, how could he know her.

"Ahhh Princess Pingyang began to go a little crazy, "Let me in, I'm your Chen Ye's woman"

When the guard heard this, he looked at Princess Pingyang again, and this sentence was somewhat credible.

"She looks like this, isn't she our lady?"

"Barely passing, yes, it's also (qíng) people, I guess adults are tired of playing."

"Do you want to let it go?"

"Let's go", Princess Pingyang heard the conversation of the guards below.

Princess Pingyang's whole face is black, and the table (qíng) is a table (qíng) that wants to eat people, a dignified princess of a country, she was disgusted and ugly by the guards, and she is not worthy of being Chen Ye's wife, and she can only play the rest and be abandoned.

Don't blame the guards, Chen Ye ordered that there was no pass order, and the city gate would not be opened, if it weren't for Princess Pingyang's words, it wouldn't have been opened.

However, the situation here is still to tell Chen Ye and let Lord Chen Ye know. After Princess Pingyang entered the city, she disappeared directly, and came to the city lord's mansion, and there were soldiers chasing after her.

After Princess Pingyang came to the City Lord's Mansion, she swaggered in, after all, the guards of the City Lord's Mansion had seen Princess Pingyang, this is a very strange table (qíng), doesn't it say that Princess Pingyang is dead? How is this alive, and directly hinted in his heart: "Invisible"

The soldiers guarding the city rushed over and were stopped by the people of the city lord's mansion, and the soldiers guarding the city asked if they had seen this woman, and of course the guards of the city lord's mansion said that they had seen it and went in.

"Is she the lady of an adult?"

As soon as they heard this explanation, the guards, the melon-eating crowd, were stunned, and in order to prevent more people from publicizing, they whispered: "Adults (qíng) people, don't spread it"

As soon as the defenders heard this, they didn't say anything about going back.

Princess Pingyang finally saw Chen Ye, Chen Ye was exercising (shēn) body in the hall, and after Princess Pingyang saw Chen Ye, she jumped up directly and hugged Chen Ye. His lips came up, hugged Chen Ye tightly, and directly knocked Chen Ye to the ground, intoxicated.

"Slap" - a crisp cracking sound, the girls looked at everything that happened in front of them in shock, and felt a little unacceptable, isn't Princess Pingyang dead? Why did he kiss Chen Ye again, so that people's brains couldn't turn around.

Pingyang @ didn't notice the others at all, and when he noticed it, he directly shyly rode on Chen Ye's (shēn) and lay in Chen Ye's arms, Zhao Xiao suddenly felt that his high blood pressure was going up, and hurriedly went back to rest.

"If you don't get up again, your waist will be broken by you." When Princess Pingyang heard this, she shyly slapped Chen Ye, tidied up her clothes, and slowly got acquainted with everyone. Let me explain the cause and effect to you, everyone understands it this time, and they also admire Chen Ye's boldness, and he actually changed the princess, the key is to give it back to others.

Fortunately, it is far away here, and Princess Pingyang can cover her face, so Chen Ye has one more person at the dinner table, that is Princess Pingyang, Princess Pingyang has finally found someone who can speak, and these few (rì) are easy to reach for everyone.

However, everyone did not say anything about the changes in the situation in the capital, but only said that Chen Ye beat away the barbarians and came to Fengzhou City for the sake of Princess Pingyang. In this way, Princess Pingyang was very moved, and every day Chen Ye came back, she had to get tired of being by Chen Ye (shēn), which led to Chen Ye's sweet life with other ladies, which could only be at night.

Now Fengzhou City is under the control of Chen Ye, and in addition, there is a large area, including Shuozhou, Luliang, Dos, Dolan, Shenmu, and Suxian. Basically, they are long and narrow, and the castle is flanked on both sides by endless mountain peaks, and on the opposite side of the peaks are grasslands and deserts. And Chen Ye, as the envoy of the festival, is responsible for the administrative and military power of these areas, which simply means that the administrative officials here can be appointed by themselves and reported to the imperial court for approval.

The state only pays attention to taxes, and what you gain is specific. The state doesn't care, you don't care how many troops you have, and the court doesn't care. Anyway, the first place to attack the barbarians was Toyosu City, and once Toyoshu City broke through the entire Dingyan area, all of them would fall.

Originally, the city of Toyosu was surrounded by grasslands and deserts, and there was a lot of precipitation a year, but the people in it did not have the technology to store water. They all eat according to the weather, and the water they eat and drink depends on the rain. Chen Ye couldn't accept this a little, after all, several ladies in his family wanted to take a bath.

What's the best way not to do it? The long-term solution is to plant trees, retain as much water as possible, and then dig out an area. Artificial lake creation is still a long-term solution. There is also a more magical way, that is, the qanats, which is a long-term project, similar to building a canal.

The method of digging a well didn't work at all, Chen Ye let people try it, and they went down very deep. A few buckets of water only come out a day, which is not enough at all.

Now the top priority is to solve the problem of water sources, Chen Ye needs a large number of workers every day, while building the city wall, digging who to teach, while slowly carrying out the work of the qanats.

Qanats need foothills, alluvial fan margins, and are mainly used to intercept underground dives for farmland irrigation and residential water. For the mountains near Toyosu Castle, there are many such places. In the undercurrent of the high mountain snow water, find its water source, dig a shaft of different depths at a certain interval, and then build a culvert at the bottom of the well according to the terrain, communicate the wells, and divert the water downstream. The outlets of the underground channels are connected to the surface channels to divert groundwater to the surface for irrigation of mulberry fields.

As long as the karez is built, a large amount of land on the side of Fengzhou City can be planted with crops, and more farmland can be opened up to feed more people, and now Chen Ye has encountered a big problem, there are too many people killed a while ago. As a result, he didn't have much labor in his hands, and the construction of the city wall occupied most of it, and Chen Ye's fire army couldn't do coolies every day, so they still needed training to ensure sufficient combat effectiveness.

If it was in the Central Plains, Chen Ye wouldn't say anything, after all, it wouldn't be Chen Ye's turn to charge into battle if it was a battle. It's different when you arrive in Fengzhou City, you may be attacked by Dao barbarians at any time, Chen Ye now has all his family and capital in Fengzhou City, and there is no way back at all.

"Childe, we might as well catch some barbarians and come over to work as coolies." Chen Bao put forward his own views.

"We can't guarantee that these barbarians will not resist, and if they do, it will be more troublesome." Chen Ye expressed his worries, and this risk is still relatively large.

"If we don't catch too much, we will need 5,000 people, send troops to guard it all the time, and kill all of them as long as there is resistance." Chen Bao said his opinion, as long as the number of barbarians was guaranteed.

"Eun, you go and prepare, don't make too much noise, after all, the power of the barbarians is still retained." However, Chen Bao's idea gave Chen Ye another good idea, that is, to give generous conditions to attract more Central Plains people to come here to make it a foregone conclusion. (yǔn) allowed homeless barbarians to intermarry with Han Chinese.

Of course, now the first (yǔn) Xu Han people and barbarian women can intermarry, exempt from the certificate of slavery, give the Han (shēn) share, can study in the city of Fengzhou, can be an official. As long as you get a certificate from the government, which proves that there is no problem in essence, the government will build a (tào) house in District 1. The construction of free is actually relatively simple during the construction period, which is a simple house built of adobe, and a house made of mud and grass.

can meet the most basic living needs, and if you want to live a better life, you can go to work in the city lord's mansion in exchange for wages. Buy things to build your ideal house. Chen Ye's order was issued directly within his own jurisdiction, and it was gradually publicized to other regions. And this news also caused a huge repercussion in Toyosu City.

In fact, many of the people in Fengzhou City were the descendants of barbarians and Han Chinese, and many of them did not have a legitimate (shēn) share. Sitting and doing low (jiàn) work, taking the least amount of money, living in the worst conditions. Now Chen Ye has nothing but such an order. More people went to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion to sign up. The team sent a long and long one.

It was also taking advantage of this opportunity that Chen Ye directly checked the population and the size of men and women in the city. It doesn't matter if you check this, the ratio of men and women in Fengzhou City is one to three, that is, one boy and three women. Some people marry two or three, Chen Ye looked at the soldiers on the side (shēn), these people followed him without hesitation, did they want to give them a home?

Chen Ye directly gathered all the cadres together, looked at many of them were young people, and quipped: "Today is also a chat, which of you is still a light strip @ son." ”

As soon as this sentence was finished, many people were shy and embarrassed, such rough Chinese characters were shy, and they were more timid than the girls on the grassland.

"Single (shēn) raised hand." As soon as Chen Ye spoke, eighty percent of the people raised their hands.

Unexpectedly, Chen Ye thought about it and spoke, smiled mysteriously and said: "I declare now, you can marry a daughter-in-law, there are two ways, first, go to the grassland and rob it for me." The second is that the women in the area under my jurisdiction can propose, and the proposal is you (qíng) I will, and you can't rob it. If your family is in the Central Plains, as long as you want to come over, I will pay for the road, how about building a big yard and dividing it into three acres of land? ”

As soon as Chen Ye finished speaking, there was a burst of applause below, and a happy table (qíng) leaked from both faces.

The reason why three acres of land were promised is because the qanats and water cellars are slowly being built, and when their families come, they can slowly reclaim and divide the land, and the water source will be enough. Then build them big houses, and as long as the soldiers get married, they will have children. These children are the source of the army of Toyosu City for the next one or two decades.

Since he thought of the child, Chen Ye asked the soldiers below to find that the children in the tribe who were still swaddling or two to four years old could be snatched back, subsidized by the government, and handed over to the women in the city to feed. When the time comes, let them speak Chinese characters and recognize Chinese. Instilled with the consciousness that they are Han Chinese, they are too young to feel that they are grassland people at all, and when they grow up, the grassland will have long been reconciled with the Central Plains.

Chen Ye also said some precautions for the following things (qíng), the army does not marry many people, after all, Chen Ye's troops now have more wolves (ròu) and less. If you are a prisoner, Chen Ye can ignore it. But another Chen Ye repeatedly reminded that he did not allow rebellion, did not give up training, and did not corrupt his life.

Even the soldiers were very happy, everyone almost knelt down for Chen Ye, this suggestion is too good, these soldiers have been suppressed for so long, and finally see the light
