Chapter 19: The Beginning of the Liaodi Changes
Coming to this world, Ji Kang believes that the existing economic model of Liaodi and even Yanguo is fundamentally the development model of small-scale peasant free economy, and the production capacity is extremely low.
Based on the knowledge of Ji Kang's previous life, such an economic model must be changed, that is, with the government as the main body, the county and county governments at all levels must unite around the Junhou Mansion under the strong leadership of the Junhou Mansion, and develop production and improve the economy through the guidance of the government and large-scale organization.
In March of the seventh year of King Wucheng, the two counties of Liaodi were the time for spring sowing of farming, and the whole Liaodi was thriving.
But many people clearly feel that Liaodi has changed a lot, and they are also a lot busy.
I didn't expect the government to sweep away the bandits, so that the people of Liaodi, who had been suffering from the scourge of bandits for generations, felt like a dream, and no one asked them to pay protection money anymore, and the eldest daughter-in-law and little girl dared to go out on the streets openly and cultivate the fields.
As for the displaced people in Liaodi, the government now takes the initiative to register them, resettle their houses, and distribute land.
And many Hu tribes in remote mountainous areas, seeing the people sent by the government this time, did not drive them away as in previous years. Instead, they were registered, turned into official citizens of the Yan Kingdom, and divided villages and distributed land. Those who can farm give them curved ploughs, and those who can't farm let them continue to graze and buy wool that no one wants, and the price is good.
In the past, he was forced by the government and needed to bring his own food and clothing, but the government did not give him a penny. Not now, the government will give you money for the labor you are engaged in now. Those who contribute more and do a good job will get more money. And the people also know that the roads and canals they build are actually beneficial to themselves.
Li Yong, who migrated to Liao with Ji Kang, was resettled in Xinzhuang, a village in Leting County, Liaoxi County. Along with Li Yong, there are more than 1,000 people and more than 200 households.
After coming here, I looked at my own independent courtyard, which was old but obviously renovated with houses and walls. The family burst into tears, and this was their future home.
The Leting County Government, in accordance with the "Regulations on the Resettlement of Displaced People" formulated by Liaocheng Jun Jikang himself, gave each homeless family the necessary agricultural tools. It is also necessary to distribute the necessary grain until the autumn harvest this year, the seeds for farming, and the subsequent quyuan plough, and distribute 20 acres of wasteland to the displaced people according to the population.
Li Yong's family was given a hundred acres of wasteland in one fell swoop. Looking at their fields, although they were covered with heavy snow, the family was full of energy. As soon as the heavy snow cleared in February, the family got up early in the morning and worked in the dark.
And farmers like Li Yong's family abound in the two counties of Liaodi this year.
Xiangping City, the secretary pavilion of the prince's mansion.
"Childe, you still have to leave, and you don't care about anything?"
looked at the old manager Ji Mao with a surprised expression, and the old man Ju Xin who was a little sad and angry.
Ji Kang spread his two little hands and said, "No, don't you still want to report to me?" As it turns out, you manage government affairs much better than I do, and you know more about military affairs than I do.
You only need to urge all county and county governments and departments to implement the management system they have formulated and achieve the management goals, and I can only decide on major matters. You can only be in charge and one overseer. Besides, you let me be so young and so much heart, can you bear it? ”
Ji Xin and Ji Mao looked at each other, and there was nothing they could do about Ji Kang, who threw off the stall, so they could only sigh.
After talking with Jun Xiangju Xin and the old manager. Before Ji Kang went to Anshan, he came to Xiangping Mountain in the east of Xiangping City, and Xiangping College, which Ji Kang had placed his expectations on, was established here.
Hearing the sound of reading aloud in more than a dozen simple classrooms, Ji Kang's little face showed a relieved smile. Not far from the classroom is a construction site.
Ji Kang said to Chen Min, who was temporarily in charge of Xiangping Academy: "Now that the conditions are like this, you all have to work hard, this is my hope for Liaodi."
Jun Xiang and I promised that after the end of farming, we would put more energy into speeding up the construction of the academy, and strive to build the academy after the summer harvest. I guarantee that Xiangping Academy will be the best and largest academy in the future. ”
At the end of March, Ji Kang and his mother came to Anshan.
In the workshops of the textile mills, there are already hundreds of looms in operation, and many of the bandits' family members and wives who have been captured along with many bandits have become the first generation of female workers in the textile mills.
These women are salaried, unlike their men. But this alone has also given hope to the bandits who were forced to work in the industrial zone, and their work attitude has also changed fundamentally.
Watching the woolen cloth being woven by the loom, the mother and the people who followed behind them all let out a voice of admiration.
Following his mother from Zhao State, Shi Xiaosong, a master carpenter, and Zhen, a master weaver, were proudly introducing procedures and operations to their mothers. Looking at his mother's happy expression, Ji Kang also felt relaxed in his heart.
Anshan Villa, the house where Ji Kang and his mother live.
Ji Zhao said to his son who said goodbye: "Son! If you go to Yushi County this time, I won't go. I haven't seen enough of Anshan, so when you get the so-called open-air salt pan ready, my mother will go and see it. My son is a person who is born with ability, and I can't hold you back for my mother. ”
"Mother, no matter how capable your son is, you gave birth to it, so my mother is the most capable. But mother, you may not have seen the sea yet, and my son wants you to accompany him to see the sea. ”
"Oh, good, good. My son is the most filial. ”
Ji Zhao looked at his son and smiled.
Shi Dang pouted beside him, he usually said that I was a sycophant, didn't I learn from you!
Qishi County is Dalian, where Ji Kang was located in his previous life.
In his previous life, Ji Kang had been to Dalian, and visited the Fuzhou Bay Sea Salt Factory, one of the four largest open-air sea salt factories in the country at that time, and was deeply shocked when he heard the tour guide of the salt factory say that the sea salt produced by this sea salt factory reached 2 million tons per year.
In the world that Ji Kang has come to now, salt is the most strictly controlled material in various countries. Yan is very short of salt, and the price is extremely expensive. The largest trade commodity with the Central Plains countries was salt, and the main trading object was the feuding Qi country.
For the sake of salt, Yan had to accept the blackmail of Qi again and again, exchanging copper, grain and war horses with Qi State, and this often did not get a deal from Qi State.
Many people in Yan had to "look at salt and eat". When the whole family eats, hang up the salt cubes, look at them, take a bite, and then put them away after eating, and wait for the next meal.
This pair of Ji Kang, who only learned about this situation not long ago after coming to Liaodi, couldn't bear it in his heart. Solving the salt problem in Liaodi and even Yan was put in the first place by Ji Kang.
