1.8 Something from the North

The wealth of Longyou comes from the Silk Road. In terms of farming alone, Longyou is not developed.

The landform of Gainlong is complex and diverse. Mountains, plateaus, plains, river valleys, swamps, glaciers, deserts, Gobi, you name it, criss-crossed. The overall terrain is dominated by mountains and plateaus. The structure is roughly as follows: "three points of mountains, three points of grass, two points of sand, one point of forest, and one point of field".

There are two main agricultural irrigation areas in Liangzhou: the irrigation area along the mountains of the Hexi Corridor and the irrigation area along the river. Among them, the Hexi Corridor produces only 20% of the state's grain due to its typical inland oasis agriculture.

Because of this, Liu Bei rebuilt the Hongchiling Great Wall and took the four counties of Hexi into his arms.

Hexi Corridor, reclining in the north of Qilian Mountain. To the south of Beishan, from Hongchiling in the east to Jiuquan County in the west, it is 2,500 miles long, and it is the famous Gobi Oasis. The Qilian Mountains are located in the south of the Hexi Corridor, and the glaciers are rippling, which is a natural reservoir of the Hexi Corridor. The area north of the corridor, near the desert, was commonly called the "North Mountain Mountains" by later generations.

During the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, iron farming tools in Hexi were already very common, and the sowing tools were also relatively advanced three-legged carts, and the "substitution method" of "energy wind and drought" was implemented according to local conditions.

The Shirota method is also known as "Shirota". During the time of Emperor Wu, Zhao Guo, the commander of Sosu, collected a new farming method implemented by combining the experience of drought resistance in the northwest.

Specifically: ditching in the field for ridges, furrows and ridges alternately, crop species in the ditch, cultivating and weeding, pushing the soil on the ridge into the ditch one by one, cultivating crops; The following year, the furrows swapped places. And so on. This method is conducive to maintaining soil fertility and resisting wind and drought. "The harvest of one year old often exceeds more than one mu of mantian fields, and the good ones are doubled."

Hexi is also rich in products. There are mainly more than 20 kinds of flax, Liang rice, yellow grain, soil wheat, white rice, wheat, millet rice, yellow rice, white millet, bean, straw, millet, camelina chestnut, callus, straw, grain, mushroom, wheat, rice, etc.

The Hexi Corridor is flat, alkaline and "rainy." When planting in summer, the water is irrigated in winter, and the frozen bubble is like a crisp, and it becomes a fertile field. Then "change the stubble", plant wheat in year A and millet in year B, which also has miraculous results. If the soil is too tired, it is easy to use alfalfa.

"Changing crops" takes into account "substitution", which can make the season ripe.

In a word. The current Xiliang has a much better ecological environment than Liu Bei's cognition from later generations. It's almost a world of difference.

The river is very clear, and the mountains and forests are beautiful. The product is self-sufficient, and the Silk Road flows gold.

The so-called guilty plea is punished. Thirty-six Qiang Qu, since the signature on the confession coupon. The crime and the punishment have been set.

The thistle king tiger sits on the top of Longshan, like a sharp blade hanging high. The Qiang Qu did not dare to slack off, so they gathered in the Zonghan Yuan General Mansion, and now temporarily led the Qiang Captain's Mansion. Rushed to consult with Yan Zhong and Han Sui, and the place of exile.

"Dare to ask the captain, can we wander from each other?" Then the Organiser asked.

"How to each other?" Han Sui asked with a smile.

"That is, my ministry is a cottage and moved to another ministry. He was a cottage and moved to my department. The thirty-six divisions were divided into two, and they happened to move each other. Isn't it the best of both worlds? โ€

Han Sui smiled and asked: "Your punishment is 'wandering for 300 miles, finishing the city'." If this is true for migration, what about Chengdan? โ€

"This ......" Qiang Qu suddenly ran out of words.

"Building cities, building tools, agriculture and animal husbandry are all indispensable." Yan Zhong also said: "If you only care about yourself, you will ignore the law in vain. Once the king condemns ......"

"Everything is at the behest of the official." When the king of thistle is mentioned, how dare Qiangqu argue again.

"In this way, the east and west can be exchanged, and the north and the south can be reversed." Yan Zhong then took the topographic map of the mountains and rivers of Xiliang and showed it to everyone. On the picture, a red pen has been used, and several large circles have been circled. All of them are plagued by the poison of Qianghu, thousands of miles of red fields, barren cities, scattered people, but suitable for farming.

Such as Caohan, Jincheng, Yuyin, Angu, Yunwu (qiฤn yรก), Yuzhong, etc., are all in the circle. A total of more than ten cities.

"It takes 300 miles." Yan Zhong admonished again.

The goal is clear, and the thirty-six Qiang canals have been selected.

Then Qiangqu asked: "Dare to ask Shangguan, food and accommodation are provided by King Ji?" โ€

"Yes, yes." Yan Zhong nodded lightly.

"What if I am disabled due to a work-related injury?"

"Own bereavement pension." Yan Zhong replied: "When he came, King Ji said: For those who have migrated with their families, every household needs to build a mansion and open up a hectare of wasteland. Build cities, farm and graze, and so on. He only needs to complete his sentence for four years before he can return to his hometown. โ€

"A mansion, a hectare of barren fields. Build cities, farm and graze. After completing four years in prison, he can return to his hometown. "The crowd took the words of the king of the thistle to heart.

Seeing that Zhong Qu Shuai was still thinking about what would happen in four years.

Looking at each other and smiling at Han Sui, Yan Zhong said again: "King Ji said again: You are not idle. It is necessary to choose the 'old and powerful' from the village to accompany them into the city. or for the lizheng, or for the chief of Qu, responsible for the affairs of the Qiang people under his jurisdiction. Eaters should be the same as Han officials. โ€

"Of course!" Hearing that each village can be managed by itself, the crowd can't help but be overjoyed.

Yan Zhong said with a smile: "King Ji also said: The so-called punishment is to replace punishment with punishment, so that he can repent and be good. There is a limit to punishment, and there is a limit to punishment. In terms of months, only the sentencing needs to be completed, and the excess work is included in the salary. Equal pay for equal work with Hermes-Epitek, more work and more rewards. โ€

Zhongqiangqu was overjoyed: "Dare to ask Shangguan, how to 'equal pay for equal work, more work and more reward'?" โ€

Yan Zhong paused slightly, and then said, "Except for the sentencing." Build a city, and make strong laborers two hundred dollars a day. Ploughing the land, thirty taxes one. โ€

The words will be spoken, and the room will be shocked.

"One day, one day, one day, one day, two hundred, one hundred, one hundred, one hundred dollars?"

Do the math. Daily, hundred, the number is right. Yan Zhong smiled and said, "Yes." โ€

"Free food and lodging, 200 per day?" Then Qiang Qu bared his teeth and smiled: "Is the Thistle King really? โ€

Yan Zhong was stunned for a moment, and then his face was displeased: "The king has made a promise, how can he go back on his word?" โ€

"It's all five baht?"

"Four out of five baht."

It turned out to be the currency of the thistle country. Questioning, Qiang Qu gasped.

"We have a large population." Then there was a great clan of Qiang canals, crowded in front of people.

"The more the merrier." Yan Zhong's eyes were empty, and he looked at nothing as if he were nothing.

"Humph!" Da Qiangqu shrugged and smiled.

"Hey!" Yan Zhong is still superior. The land of Jiguo is thousands of miles, and there are only millions of Qiang people, so what's the difficulty.

Qiangqu kindly reminded: "Other clans can eat and fight." One person eats the amount of several people, and one person has the power of several people. โ€

"Wonderful." Yan Zhong stroked his palms and smiled, full of celebrity demeanor.

Qiang Qu secretly admired it and didn't mention it.

I'm afraid the thistle king hasn't seen me waiting to eat and drink. Not to mention gobbling up, the wind and clouds. It is clear that there is no light in the heavens and the earth, and the gods and ghosts are dancing. The geese have plucked their feathers, and not a single inch of grass grows!

Brothers, let's go. Let Xiliang Mingshi die clearly.

Looking at the thirty-six Qiang canals, he went away excitedly. Yan Zhong slowly retracted his smile.

Han Sui sighed even more: "A hundred years of chaos will be destroyed in the hands of King Ji." โ€

But there was a trace of worry: "Millions of Qiang people, let go of eating and drinking." Thistle King ......"

"It doesn't matter." Yan Zhong replied: "There are many cattle and sheep in the Western Regions. There are many japonica rice in the thistle country. The Qiang people are well fed and bent on making money. Within a few years, there was no distinction between Han and Qiang in Longyou. โ€

"What about four years from now?" Han Sui remembered the sentence of 'Wancheng Danqing', but it was only four years.

"Put yourself in your shoes, every household has a good house, a hectare of fertile land, a herd of cattle and sheep, and a daily salary of 200. Would you like to go back to the village? Yan Zhong stood up and bowed to Longshan.

"The wisdom of the thistle king may not be much better than that of Gao Zu."

Han Sui also felt the same way: "If I meet Gaozu, I will do it in the north." and the kingdom, Song Jian and the like, they competed for the first ear. โ€
