Chapter 46 Political Affairs
Things are gathered by like, and people are grouped. Lu Su, Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hongben are all celebrities near Yangzhou, plus they are all great talents in the world, and they are all good at governance, so they naturally have a connection with each other, and they have become close friends over time.
While looking at the current situation in Yangzhou, the three of them thought about what was unreasonable and needed to be improved. Slowly came to the recruitment hall in Lujiang.
Some people were already waiting at the door of the Zhaoxian Pavilion, and looking at the appearance of the three of them, they went up directly.
"Mr. Zijing, Mr. Zibu, Mr. Zigang, Lord Zhou Mu is already waiting for the three of you in the General's Mansion, please come with me."
The three of them were not surprised, the talents of the three of them had already spread all over Jiangdong, if they hadn't been traveling abroad, with Yuan Shu's courage to dare to release the recruitment list, I am afraid that the three of them would have been recruited long ago.
Now that the three of them have returned from traveling and come to Jiangdong together, how can Yuan Shu, as a male lord, not pay attention to intelligence?
I'm afraid that the three of them will be discovered before they enter Jiangdong, and in the past few days, they have been feeling a few peeping eyes without malicious intent, although the three of them didn't show anything, but they were clear in their hearts.
All the way to the general's mansion unimpeded, Yuan Shu was already waiting in the hall.
Seeing the three talents in front of him, Yuan Shu touched the plan in his hand, and a smile rose on the corner of his mouth.
Naturally, none of the three people in front of him were vain goods, and three purple halos hung there, two deep and one shallow, almost blinding Yuan Shu's eyes.
Zhang Hong's qualifications are still a little worse than the previous two.
"Three great talents, I finally got you here!"
Somehow, seeing Yuan Shu's smile, the three of them always felt a little chilled.
"In Xia Lu Zijing (Zhang Zibu, Zhang Zigang), I have seen the general."
Yuan Shu happily helped the three of them up one by one: "If you can get the help of the three of you, something big can be done!" ”
After the four of them exchanged pleasantries, they began to get into the theme.
"Now that Jiangdong is in a period of great construction, I will appoint the three of you as the long history first, and wait until Jiangdong is completely stabilized in the future before rewarding you."
"Thank you, Lord."
"In addition, I have a lot of government affairs that you need to be responsible for here."
Then Yuan Shu took out three pieces of paper and handed them to the three people respectively, with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth. Lu Su and the others were unaware of this, and calmly took the paper to check the contents on it.
Zhang Hong's paper is written about the promotion and planting of cotton, the arrangement and establishment of large-scale pastures, and the optimization of planting methods of various crops, etc., and some reference opinions of Yuan Shu are also attached.
Zhang Zhao was on the arrangement of various factories such as salt farms, wineries, mines, textile factories, blacksmith shops, and cloth villages, as well as the people's collection villages and villages.
Lu Su had in his hands the detailed formulation of various taxes and laws, the rational division of cultivated land in Yangzhou, and the subdivision of the work of officials.
Yuan Shu felt that the three people in front of him would have to be busy for at least three months before they could achieve initial results.
Now everyone else under Yuan Shu's command is also very busy. Tian Feng continued to be responsible for the selection and examination of officials and the payment of taxes, Gu Yong was responsible for the arrangement and appointment of officials and the construction of housing and transportation in various places, Fu Yu was responsible for the construction of water conservancy projects and various projects for the benefit of the people, as well as canteens, and Xun You was responsible for coordinating the family and managing the school and the medical center.
There is only one Guo Jia, who is not busy with these political affairs, but he is also urged by Yuan Shu to improve his ghost fox intelligence organization and look for talents everywhere.
Although it seems that Yuan Shu has a lot of talents, he can't stand all of them in a blank state of being so big.
Yuan Shu felt that it would take at least a year to get all this on the right track, and it would take another two or three years to basically complete it.
There are now more than 6 million people in Yangzhou, and they all need Yuan Shu to arrange a little bit. When there are many people, even simple things can become complicated.
Agriculture, commerce, handicrafts, transportation, institutions, economy, officials, common people, families, etc.
And these are still preliminary divisions, and it is even more cumbersome to subdivide them.
Agriculture alone can be divided into five aspects of agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery sidelines, and then subdivided, just one agriculture includes all aspects, such as the cultivation and optimization of seeds, the rationalization of land scale, the optimization and summary of planting methods, the improvement of tools, the arrangement of types of planted crops, the arrangement of taxes, and so on.
These things are endless, and they are overwhelming. Yuan Shu could only try his best to record everything he could think of and give it to the people under his command.
Everything starts from a blank, and Yuan Shu naturally wants to do it perfectly, otherwise it will be relatively difficult to change it later.
If Yuan Shu really passes these things, at least there is no problem with Yangzhou's overall strength increasing tenfold in ten years.
This is also the reason why Yuan Shu prefers internal political talents among strategists.
I don't play with you, I will compare development and national strength with you.
During the Warring States period, Li Mu was so powerful, he led Zhao to attack Qin in five battles and won three and drew two, what was the result? The mantis arm just blocked the car, but Zhao Guo was still destroyed.
There is no way, the gap in national strength is too big, and the Qin State will not hurt its muscles and bones even if it loses ten more times at that time, and it still has an advantage.
And as long as Zhao Guo loses once, he will lose completely, and there is no room to turn over.
What Yuan Shu wants to do is to continue to improve his national strength like the Qin State during the Warring States Period, take the royal road, and crush the general trend.
When your money and food are five or even ten times more than that of the other party, no matter how stupid and unlucky you are, as long as you don't pump your brain, you will be invincible.
This is also the reason why Yuan Shu prefers internal affairs strategists and commanders.
What he has walked has never been the domineering way of strengthening himself by plunder, nor is it the trick of taking the edge of the sword and dying, but the supreme royal road that is upright and flawless.
Yuan Shu didn't plan to make any big moves within two years, the main thing was to develop himself and improve Yangzhou's system.
Although Yuan Shu's arrangement is not very meticulous now, and there are many loopholes, Yuan Shu is not a senior talent after all, and there are only so many things that he can come up with as an otaku in his previous life, and there are some blank places to be solved when he thinks about it or when there is a problem.
Three top internal affairs talents came at once, and now Yuan Shu can finally put aside the endless internal affairs problems for the time being and start thinking about the army.
In addition to the basic infantry and archers, the most indispensable thing in Jiangdong is the naval army.
The generals under Yuan Shu's command had different commanding talents, so the armies under their command were also different.
Huang Zhong's long-range shooting talent only worked on archers, so all the 30,000 people under his command were archers.
Sun Jian's berserk talent is a bit of a panacea, so he has everything under his command.
20,000 infantry plus 7,000 archers and 3,000 cavalry, of which 500 cavalry were under Sun Ce's command.
And Ji Ling's qualifications are still a little worse in the end, but he is about to produce his own commanding talent, and he himself probably feels that his commanding talent has a higher bonus to which type of troops, so he only has three thousand cavalry under his command, and the others are infantry.
Now that these armies are on the right track, they are all constantly training and becoming stronger under the management of their generals, only the naval army under Gan Ning is a little embarrassed.
There are many lakes and rivers in Jiangdong, and the navy is indispensable, but now Yuan Shu's shipyard has not made much progress, and the navy under Gan Ning still drives some small warships and hazy chong, and there are few building ships.
A warship of this strength can swim in the Yangtze River at most, and it is not suitable for fighting the wind and waves at all, let alone at sea.
In the development of a naval force or navy, the ship is the most important factor.
