Chapter 123: Building Roads
"Okay Yuan Hao, is there anything else?"
As soon as he took Jingzhou, the troubles in his hands piled up again, and Yuan Shu was very helpless. I have to take Yizhou next year, and then it will be even more troublesome, and it's annoying to think about.
Looking at Yuan Shu's anxious look, Tian Feng was also very helpless, who let this thing ask for it?
The other princes were at most worried about the army, money and food, and the management of the people was left to the family.
And Yuan Shu himself has to control the overall situation. You have to control all road construction, water conservancy, shipbuilding, academies, etc., and the stalls are too big.
The forces under his command are indeed developing rapidly, but at the cost of Yuan Shu, Tian Feng and others having to become dogs every day. Only the two goblins like Guo Jia and Xun You, who showed that they were not good at political affairs at the beginning, went to drum up strategic and intelligence organizations.
And which of the other strategists didn't wear many hats and run around? There are countless things waiting for them to deal with, and they have to be busy every day until they are sleepy and can no longer sleep. Especially now that there is one more Jingzhou, the workload has doubled in an instant, Tian Feng has been forced to be anxious recently, and Fa Zheng has also been dragged over.
Faced with the arrangement of his immediate boss and unscrupulous teacher, Fa Zhengming knew that this was a pit, but he had no way to refuse. Heaven and Earth Monarch Teacher, what can Fa Zheng do? He's also helpless! I just feel that my life is gray.
Fa Zheng once aspired to become a strategist like Zhang Liang who strategized and won thousands of miles away, but now he is buried in a mountain of government affairs every day, and he is forced to become the type of logistics chief Xiao He.
Especially seeing that Guo Jia is at ease every day, wandering around, and developing offline in the name of beauty, while he is busy as a dog, Fa Zheng is even more unhappy.
But with such a big mountain as Tian Feng pressing on his head, Fa Zheng didn't dare to make any changes. Fortunately, Guo Jia didn't dare to come to Fazheng for trouble, in case Tian Feng, who was busy and crazy, found out and caught Zhuangding, at least he would have to be in the dark for more than half a month, and even Yuan Shu couldn't help him.
However, in this way, Fazheng's internal affairs ability has improved a lot, and his personality has become more calm. Maybe Tian Feng also saw that his apprentice had learned a little from Guo Jia, so he cultivated him like this! Well, that's it.
"Lord, this time it's not a bad thing, it's a matter of building roads."
Yuan Shu frowned, after a year of crazy construction, the traffic in the north of Yangzhou is already quite convenient, and the traffic in the two counties in the south is barely enough, what else is the problem?
Tian Feng said with a smile: "The Yangzhou family hopes that the lord can open a road in Huiji, from Shanyin County, the seat of Huiji County, to Dongye County. ”
Yuan Shu was curious: "Oh? Dongye County, where is this? ”
"To the south of Huiji, across the sea from Yizhou."
As soon as Tian Feng said this, Yuan Shu instantly understood the thoughts of the family. If you take the water route from San'in, the distance is too far, and it is easy to cause epidemics on the boat, but if you go from San'in Prefecture, you can save several times the time and risk.
This group of goods was delivered to the door by themselves to be slaughtered!
Yuan Shu said with a smile: "Since the family has a request, then we naturally have to think about it." However, the distance is too long, and the cost is too high! The General's Mansion has been poor recently, and there is not so much money in the planning for road construction! ”
Tian Feng also smiled lightly. Yuan Shu is talking nonsense with his eyes open, obviously wanting the family to help him work for nothing. This road will not be lost even if Yuan Shu cultivates it himself, after all, it will be developed in Yuan Shu's plan.
With Yizhou here, the families are bound to take the initiative to help Yuan Shu develop the southern part of Huiji County. Otherwise, with the level of navigation at this time, their development in Yizhou would be greatly restricted.
After all, the whole Huiji is too backward! In a huge place, most of the fifteen counties are concentrated in a small corner in the upper right corner of Wu County, which is now Shaoxing.
More than ninety percent of the remaining places are uninhabited, adding up to four counties. It's not that these places are uninhabitable, it's just that they don't have that many people.
Tian Feng comprehended, "What the lord said is reasonable, this road is too long and too difficult, and we can't afford to build it at all." The families must bear more than eighty percent of the costs. ”
Yuan Shu nodded with satisfaction and said excitedly: "If this road is repaired, the family will definitely organize some people who are unwilling to go to sea to establish a village and county near this road, and the development of Huiji County can also be on the agenda." ”
"The lord is wise! In this way, we don't need to bother to attract people, as long as we provide some convenience for these families and build a few small cities. Tian Feng now feels more and more that Yuan Shu's division of Yizhou is really too wise, and he can count it in one fell swoop.
You don't have to worry about anything, and the families will willingly help them build Yizhou, and even Huiji. And at the end of the day, they have to be grateful.
"Yes, yes, I finally met a good thing. These families really didn't disappoint me, and they were willing to cut through obstacles for the people of Limin, quite like an ancestor! ”
Yuan Shu was a little embarrassed to summon the family like this, and praised it from the bottom of his heart.
Although there are a lot of moths in these families, after all, they are still the most elite group of people in the whole world, and their ability and foresight are not comparable to those ordinary poor families.
Before, they were just lost in the whirlpool of competition for fame and fortune, but now Yuan Shu pointed to the right path, and they immediately showed that they were not inferior to the ancestors of the past, and they were guarding and educating the people.
After all, this world is still the master of the family, assisted by the poor family, Yuan Shu can't change, all he can do is guide. After all, a well-educated and well-educated family is not something that can be easily shaken by a poor family, and the people have no right to speak and lead.
"What is the current situation in Yizhou?"
Nearly a month has passed, and Yuan Shu has also paid attention to the development of Yizhou in a timely manner.
Tian Feng said with emotion: "The population is nearly 600,000! The policies adopted by those families in the fiefdom are basically the same, and the development speed is even faster than that of Yangzhou at the beginning! Really! ”
Yuan Shu smiled: "That's nature, the power of the family is not covered!" As long as they are active, the burst of energy is not something that ordinary people can imagine. ”
Although Yuan Shu had also been mentally prepared, he was still taken aback when he heard that the population of nearly 600,000 people. You must know that Yuan Shu stipulated at the beginning that except for the domestic slaves of the family, the people in Yangzhou were not allowed to move away. That is to say, these families can only pull people from other states.
But that's it, this time the family was able to get a population of nearly 600,000 in a month, which was really beyond Yuan Shu's imagination.
However, the speed of population development is so fast, Tian Feng feels a little worried: "Lord, there are nearly 500,000 people in the fiefdom of the Yizhou family, and the people we sent over in the other half of the place are only in their early 100,000s, shouldn't we limit it!" ”
Yuan Shu said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, the hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit." Isn't the reason why the people died under the command of their families because they could give more benefits? As long as we maintain the current state, when the fiefdoms of the families are not enough to satisfy those people, we will naturally go from Nantai County to Beitai County. ”
"However, it is better to knock it on to save them from being carried away by interests. You remind those families not to go too far, they can make the policies of Nantai County more favorable, but don't compete viciously with us. ”
"In addition, the population of Nantai County must not exceed three times that of Beitai County, and the excess population must be sent to Beitai County, otherwise the population of Nantai County will not be allowed to increase again. By the way, this policy will be implemented in a month, giving the families a buffer and time to negotiate. ”
The first rich drive the later rich, Yuan Shu understands this truth. But I'm afraid that the first rich will get rich, but I don't want to drive the later rich, and even want to squeeze the latter.
Yuan Shu really didn't dare to pin the development of Yizhou on the discipline of the family, so it was better to add a tightening spell.
