After the re-counting of household registration, the number of households in Shuozhou reached 15,000, not counting the 40,000 young men that Wang Xu might send after that.

Shuozhou has fields, grassland, about 5 million acres, of which about 1.5 million acres of mature land, in addition to some small landlords add up to more than 100,000 acres, the remaining fields Sun Xiangfu gave each household 80 acres as Yongye fields, and then there are nearly 100,000 acres of ownerless cooked fields, Sun Xiangfu all tenants to the family of more than three people.

The area of the grassland accounts for more than two-thirds of the land in the whole Shuozhou, there are many coal mining areas, Sun Xiangfu is all classified as owned by the government, the development of Shuozhou Xintian in the future, mainly the grassland area, here is the middle section of the Sangqian River Basin, one of the largest tributaries of the Sanggan River, just in the territory of Shanyang, the water source is very sufficient, a lot of water can be opened along the river to irrigate the land, although the winter here is relatively long, a year can basically only grow one season of crops, but the fertility in the field is very sufficient, the yield of one season, enough to feed the people here.

In later generations, the yield of potatoes planted in Guanzhong and Xinjiang is an example, and the yield of potatoes planted in Xinjiang, where the land is fertile and sunny, can often reach more than 10,000 catties per mu, which is nearly twice as high as the yield in Guanzhong.

The reason why Sun Xiangfu is sure to grow spices with a yield of more than one stone per mu here is also because he likes the fertile land, sufficient water and sunshine, moderate altitude, and dry enough air.

The household registration and the field are done, Sun Xiangfu can spend a Spring Festival with peace of mind, the house of the Sun Mansion has been renovated, and the people in the house live more comfortably, and now, many of the new death row prisoners have learned the craft with the craftsmen in the house, and the most fiddling with them is still farming tools, even if it is the New Year, everyone has not stopped the work in their hands, because only by constantly doing things, they feel that they are qualified to eat the meals in the kitchen of the Sun Mansion, and they are qualified to wear the warm and coaxing clothes of the Sun Mansion. They still have to live in that kind of steaming house, which is better than the living conditions they used to have at home.

Diametrically opposed to the atmosphere of Sun's Mansion is Chang'an, this year there is no Sun Xiangfu and Yu Xiuer, but Chang'an, the managers of the two stores in Luoyang are based on the first Spring Festival Gala and have launched the show, although there is not much innovation, but it is still the best place for guests to go for the New Year, and business is so good that it bursts.

What is more unexpected is that the hip dance and bamboo pole dance that came from Lingnan have been promoted by the Spring Festival Gala, and they have unexpectedly become popular, and on the first few days of the Lunar New Year, many children in the streets and alleys began to dance the bamboo pole dance on the street corner, this thing is like dancing rubber bands, which can warm up the body in the cold season, and after Sun Deshou and Xiaomei made an interesting formula for the bamboo pole dance, the children in Chang'an will follow this mantra when they dance the bamboo pole dance, which is roughly like this.

"Malan blossoms twenty-one, twenty-five-six, two-five-seven, two-eight-two-nine-thirty-one······"

This is the simplest number song, and there are one or two upgraded versions of the gameplay, one is the multiplication formula, the other is the division formula, it can be said that as long as you learn a full set of bamboo pole dance, memorize the formula, this child, even if you know the number.

Just like a joke that appeared in the sketch of Wangjianglou recently, it is said that a student told his classmates about his husband's examination for his own arithmetic, and the gentleman asked how much is Sanqi? The student said, "I didn't know that!" Regardless of it, it was thirty-seven twenty-one, and I answered eighteen, but I was drawn by Mr.

If this paragraph was said before, many illiterate people must not understand, but don't underestimate the multiplication of three times seven, the ancients who have not read the book, it takes half a day to know the result, but now it is different, whether it is an adult or a child, everyone understands it, because when the children dance bamboo pole dance in the streets and alleys, the mantra unconsciously enters people's minds, and subtly, everyone learns it, this is a different kind of cultural transmission, when people know how to fast, When accurately calculating simple numbers, many things will be done efficiently, and they will not be easily deceived by profiteers, you know, Datang weight unit is hexadecimal, money is an integer number, and some calculations such as rulers, inches, and steps are not very uniform, but they can make an ordinary person dizzy in minutes.

These are all digressions, since Li Chunfeng discovered the telescope with more than forty times magnification function in Xi Junmai's arms, he was stunned for several days, Sun Xiangfu was afraid that something would happen to him, and gave him many popular science lessons, after he clearly saw some small creatures in the water that he could not see with the naked eye, his previous cognition of the world was overturned, at least, he was no longer superstitious about his previous set of medical knowledge.

And he began to intuitively think that all the diseases of the human body are like potbelly disease, which are entered by poisonous insects, just because everyone's eyes can't see those tiny poisonous insects.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with this statement, and the germ can be regarded as a poisonous insect! It's just that that thing needs a microscope to see, at present, Sun Xiangfu can't make a microscope, but under his personal guidance, the binocular, which can adjust the focal length through a prism, has been made out, but the highest magnification, there is no significant improvement, and the size of this telescope is still a little big, there is no way, the production process needs to be improved.

However, after the artifact was found, the crystal ore from overseas was completely used up, and the team of craftsmen who developed it began to focus on the process of firing glass from sand.

Li Chunfeng went to Chang'an and asked Yuan Tiangang to hand it over to Sun Simiao, asking Sun Simiao to come to Shuozhou to study medical skills with him, and after his pathological cognition was overturned, he felt that he had found a new path in medicine, which was much more technical than needlework and suturing wounds.

In this regard, Sun Xiangfu is happy to see, and he also proposed to Li Chunfeng the idea of making Chinese patent medicine, for example, the treatment of typhoid fever and cold medicine is refined, and the pills that are easy to preserve are made according to the weight of the medicine, as long as people have typhoid fever and cold, according to the severity of the pill, take a corresponding pill, and the disease will be relieved, which is a way to greatly facilitate patients and reduce the treatment process of doctors.

Li Chunfeng felt that the idea that Sun Xiangfu said was very feasible, he ignored the incomprehensible smile in Sun Xiangfu's eyes, and fooled the Taoist priests who loved alchemy to make medicine, Sun Xiangfu felt that his merits were immeasurable! It's a pity that Sun Simiao always sees the head and the tail, and he doesn't know if Li Chunfeng's letter can reach him.

Sun Xiangfu's comfortable days are destined to be short, after the Shangyuan Festival, Li Ji received an order from the imperial court, he wants the class to return to the court, and the soldiers he led will return to his hometown to farm before spring ploughing, so the garrison of Shuozhou will only have 3,000 soldiers and horses of the unity battalion in the future, and at this time, Wang Xu, who persuaded the family and mobilized nearly 40,000 young and strong, finally came to Shuozhou with men and horses.

Sun Xiangfu happily recorded everyone's household registration, and arranged for them to live in Shanyang County temporarily, and after their village fortress was built, they would be gradually moved out. Because the land they want to cultivate is the grassland outside Shanyang County.

Because of the arrangement of these 40,000 people, Sun Xiangfu also came to Shanyang by the way, this is his fiefdom, there are 500 households will be the tenants of his food estate, accounting for nearly half of the population of the aborigines of Shanyang County, and more than ninety percent of the whole territory of Shanyang County is grassland, and his tenants are herdsmen with half-hu characteristics.

"This wall is too broken, there is only a layer of adobe left, and the war horses can jump over, and the houses in the city, which look like houses inhabited by Han people, but like tents, have to be rebuilt, Baolin, are you sure that your father used to strike iron here? I didn't see a blacksmith shop here? ”

When Sun Xiangfu arrived in Shanyang County, he never saw a satisfactory thing, the more than 1,000 herdsmen, all dressed like beggars, originally, they were just slaves grazing for Liang Shidu.

"That, my father said, Shanyang's blacksmith shop, my house will definitely open." Yu Chi Baolin was also confused, in the Tang Dynasty, he had never seen such a broken county, and the emperor gave such a county title to a meritorious minister, and he really took it.

"I don't think there's any need to renovate this city, so we can just build a new one." Xi Jun bought a horse and walked around the city and made his own suggestion.

Sun Xiangfu now appoints him as the deputy lieutenant of the unity battalion, leading 1,500 cavalry to defend Shanyang, that is to say, this will be his future station, but such a broken city, how can he live!

"Well, let's build it! Mobilize all the people, there is a lot of coal here, let's mobilize the people to burn bricks together, and build a new city on the Sanggan River, so that the Sanggan River can pass through the city. ”

was bought by Xi Jun to mention this, Sun Xiangfu immediately made a decision, not to mention that Shanyang County is his fiefdom, just this bridgehead-like location, strategically speaking, a strong city should be built, with this city, the Wang family will have more confidence in advancing to the depths of the grassland.

Moreover, the economic situation of the people in Shuozhou is clear, and if they don't add some income, it is estimated that some people will start to starve to death and freeze to death.

When he came to the dilapidated county office, Sun Xiangfu first asked Wang Gan, the temporary county magistrate he appointed, to take a pen and paper and write the notice himself.

"Your Excellency, is this a notice? Don't waste pen and ink, those fools can't understand it. What kind of decree to be implemented here depends on the sound of gongs and shouts. Wang Qian kindly reminded.

"This is not just a notice, but also a recruitment agreement, I want to recruit all the laborers in Shuozhou to build Shanyang New Town, start work after sunrise every day, finish work before dusk, pay 30 yuan, and take care of two meals. If someone has worked and has not eaten or received money, he can go to this list to file a complaint, and the official will severely punish those who bend the law for bribes. ”

Sun Xiangfu didn't have much time to spend on building the city, March and April were the best sowing time for cumin, so the city had to be completed within three months, so the only way he could use it was to spend money and find more people to help.

If according to the habits of the magistrates in this era, Sun Xiangfu only needs to issue a requisition order, and the people under his rule must come to serve for free, but Sun Xiangfu will not do that, he wants to pass this matter, so that the people can earn food and money, and at the same time survive this cold winter, establish the credibility of the government, and let the people have a sense of belonging to the government and the Tang Dynasty, after all, this place has been ruled by the Turks and Liang Shi for a long time, and the people's hearts are not in the Tang.

Wang Qian heard from Sun Xiangfu's tone that he was different from other officials in the Tang Dynasty, and now, Wang Xu and Sun Xiangfu that he supported were in a cooperative relationship, and they themselves wished that there was a strong city behind the fortress they had established in the grassland, yes, at the leadership level, he and Sun Xiangfu maintained absolute consistency, and soon, the notice written by Sun Xiangfu was posted in four counties and one city in Shuozhou, and several county orders of the Wang family mobilized the officials they recruited to launch it to each household, and within a few days, Thousands of people gathered to the old city of Shanyang.

"There are more temporary tents, all of which are equipped with stoves, and we buy all the cattle and sheep from the herdsmen, kill some meat every day, and add it to the rice to make porridge······

The people who came to Shanyang to join the city of Xiucheng became more and more after receiving food, drink and wages, and therefore, Sun Xiangfu and the soldiers of the unity camp were busy all day long, and the land of Shanyang became a super large construction site for 10,000 people to work from the beginning of the first month before the heavy snow melted, until the end of February, a huge city outline gradually took shape on the Sanggan River.
