The ancients had a good name, and the name of the family is no exception, as soon as they heard that the name could be passed down through the ages, their eyes immediately glowed red. Not only Xiao He, but the big guys sitting here all have one mind, all want to be famous in the world and be praised by the world.

Xiao He said: "Lord, what kind of big project? ”

Hehe!

Ye Tong stretched out a finger and said with a smile: "The first thing, the Yellow River governance, completely solve the Yellow River floods, so that the people along the Yellow River will no longer be harmed by the Yellow River water." ”

The bigwigs sighed, no longer excited in their hearts, and some smiled bitterly. Everyone knows about the problem of flooding in the Yellow River, but there is no good way to deal with it.

Cao Shen shook his head and said: "My lord, it is not easy to govern the Yellow River, for thousands of years, the princes along the Yellow River have spent a lot of money on governance, and the results are not good.

If there is a problem in a certain section, solve the matter of that section of the Yellow River. However, the Yellow River is too long to be managed all at once, first, it costs money, labor, and most importantly, it is difficult to manage. ”

"Wrong! The governance of General Ben is the governance of the whole side. When the Northern Expedition is over, we will have a large number of prisoners. By that time, there would be hundreds of thousands, millions of captives, all of whom would be thrown into civilized schools.

General Ben will re-excavate the Yellow River.

First from the Yanmen Pass, the corner of the Yellow River, directly to the east, until the Liaodong area and then the Yellow River water into the sea.

In this way, the newly excavated coastal areas of the Yellow River will greatly improve the environment, which will be more conducive to agricultural production and good for the local environment.

After the excavation of the new Yellow River is completed, the existing Yellow River will be thoroughly excavated and treated in the dry season, not only to dig deep, but also to strengthen and dredge, so that the Yellow River can be thoroughly controlled after a few dry seasons. ”

Puff puff!

Shock appeared on the face of the big guy sitting there!

Very impressive!

It is definitely a great project of the century, once the project is completed, the flood of the Yellow River will be completely solved, and it will indeed be famous for eternity. It's just that the amount of work is so large that it is unimaginable for the big guys sitting there, and they all have skeptical looks.

Xiao He sighed, shook his head and said, "General, such a big project, the investment should be very large!" The cabinet has no money! ”

Shame!

Ye Tong knew what Xiao was thinking, and made up his mind on Ye Tong.

"Lao Xiao, don't beat General Ben's idea. You have to think about it, with a million strong labor, how much can the cabinet spend? Isn't it just the tools, cement and other materials that millions of people need to eat and dig up? You don't need to pay for it, be content! ”

At this point, some people will ask, why not dig the Grand Canal?

Hehe!

The shipping of the Qin Empire has undergone earth-shaking changes, and the Yangtze River and Yellow River basins have excellent ships for transportation. There has been a qualitative change in the maximum shipping capacity, and then digging the Grand Canal is a waste of money and unnecessary.

What's more, the Qin Empire has entered the era of steam engines, steam trains have been used, and in a few years, the railway transportation lines have been repaired throughout the country, is the Grand Canal still useful?

You must know that the width of the railroad track built by the Qin Empire is 2.5 meters, and the transportation capacity is extremely powerful, not the two-horse width of the rail made by Niu Niu.

Next, the bigwigs discussed it, and they all felt that it was feasible, and immediately sent people to explore and design the newly excavated Yellow River channel, and the construction started after the end of the Northern Expedition.

Xiao He said excitedly: "Lord, what is the second project?" ”

Hehe!

"Desert governance!"

Puff puff!

It's too difficult!

It's really difficult!

Can deserts be governed?

No way?

It's a bit sci-fi, unrealistic!

Pipe dream!

The bigwigs discussed and shook their heads, basically with a veto attitude, no one believed that the desert could be governed. In everyone's minds, the desert is an ungoverned one, and it is not said in the book that it can be governed.

"That's it! Do you think General Ben is talking nonsense? The place in Yumen Pass, Bai Lixin has been there, and the environment is extremely bad, right! ”

Bai Lixin nodded and said: "The environment in that place in Yumen Pass is indeed poor, and many soils show signs of desertification. It is estimated that in a few years, the area around Yumen Pass will become a desert area. ”

Hehe!

"Really? General Ben told you that the place of Yumen Pass is no longer what it used to be, and the environmental situation has been greatly improved, has the cabinet not received a report from Yumen Pass Juncheng in the past few years? ”

Xiao He himself is also in charge of agriculture, and this kind of information must be seen for the first time. The problem is that Xiao He really doesn't know, he only knows that Yumen Guan Juncheng is talking about environmental governance, and the situation is getting better and better.

Xiao He said: "My lord, Yumen Pass has reported that the environment has improved year by year, but nothing else has to do with desert governance?" ”

"Xiao He, it's a big deal. Yumen's treatment of the problem of soil desertification is the operation of General Jiang Song. After several years of hard work, tens of thousands of students of the Civilization School have planted a large number of trees and sprinkled grass seeds on the edge of the desert, and the environment of the entire Yumen Pass has become better and better.

Two years ago, the students of the Civilization School began to plant trees in the desert, and they have already achieved initial results, almost more than 10,000 hectares of desert have been managed, and more than 10,000 hectares of desert have become forest land. ”

Shock!

Stirring!

Ye Tong's words surprised the imperial bigwigs present, and no one would question what Ye Tong said. Because, Ye Tong doesn't have to fool around, once it is a fool, it won't take long to go.

Xiao He said with a bitter face: "My lord, the students of the Civilization School under General Jiang Song, their expenses go into the army's expenses, and the cabinet doesn't care about it!" ”

What!

Zhang Liang stopped doing it when he heard this, and immediately questioned: "Prime Minister Xiao, is this how the cabinet deprives military spending?" General Jiang Song is responsible for taking care of the students of the civilized school, and the cabinet is good, so it is not appropriate to directly put the expenses of the students on the military cabinet account! ”

Chen Ping added: "Prime Minister Xiao, it seems that Jiang Song has been to Chang'an several times, and each time it is for the expenses of the students of the civilized school. ”

Now that the cabinet and the military cabinet quarreled again.

Ye Tong closed his eyes and let the two sides quarrel, this kind of thing often happens, all caused by the funds of the Cabinet Card. Xiao He's table was damaged several times by the general who led the troops, and finally made an iron table.

Half an hour later, the two sides reached an agreement that the cabinet would make up the funds for the past few years and give the military cabinet double the compensation. Who let Xiao He not take advantage of the slightest reason this time, and can only let the military pavilion slaughter.

"That's it! Now that we know that the desert can be managed, do we need a reason? The desert with a radius of thousands of kilometers, once it is well managed, the cultivated land area of the empire will increase a lot, is it not worth governing.

Besides, if the desert is not controlled and continues to deteriorate, the Guanzhong region will be implicated. It's not good, after a thousand years, Guanzhong has also become a desert, think about that situation, it's terrifying! ”

At this time, there are still water sources, forests, and grasses in some areas, and as long as we pay attention to controlling the population, prohibiting deforestation, and protecting water sources, we can get the role of governance.

The cabinet members thought about it, if the desert is really governed, it will only be good for the Yanhuang people, and there will be no harm, and it will also be famous and respected by the world.

Xiao He nodded and agreed to the start of the desert management project.

"Is there still the lord?"

Facing Xiao He's inquiry, everyone looked at Ye Tong expectantly.

With a wave of Ye Tong's hand, the internal guard took a huge map and hung it. All of a sudden, the big guys sitting there were shocked, only a few people in the military pavilion did not show a surprised look, and the cabinet was collectively dumbfounded!

From the map, I can see that the place occupied by the Qin Empire is too small, which makes the cabinet members very depressed.

The Qin Empire is so large, how can it be so big?

Is there really so much land out there?

"Alright. There is no need to question the authenticity, General Ben only said that the map was correct. Imagine, the Yanhuang Island that Zhou Yu recently took over, did you know that there is such a large land area? ”

I saw the big guys shaking their heads.

Ye Tong continued: "In ten years, General Ben wants to bring some of the main places into the jurisdiction of the empire. ”

When the big guys saw the pen in Ye Tong's hand draw on the map, they shocked the big guy and stared stupidly, this is too big!

"See, to the east of the empire, beyond our sea, you will see a land larger than the empire, which General Ben will call our Eastern Continent, also called the Yanhuang Eastern Continent.

From the south, that continent is also huge, and General Ben calls our Southern Continent, also known as Yanhuang Southern Continent.

Also, in the middle of our sea, there are tens of thousands of islands, which are to be taken under the jurisdiction of the Empire.

To the west of Yumen Pass, the goal of the westward expedition is to reach the West Sea (Caspian Sea).

The Northern Expedition went straight to the North Sea, and later penetrated further north.

This is this area, which is a tropical jungle with abundant products, suitable for growing grain, fruits and other crops. These are the three goals in General Ben's mind. ”

Zhang Liang, Chen Ping, Fan Zeng, Cheng Yu and others are in high spirits, Zhang Liang, Chen Ping, and Fan Zeng are military pavilions, the more conquests, the greater the merits, who doesn't like soldiers! Cheng Yu is a system product, knows his goals and tasks, and definitely supports it.

A group of civil officials in the cabinet also showed excitement on their faces when they saw the area drawn by Ye Tong's fingers. Whoever does not want the territory of the empire to continue to increase during his term of office is a matter of good political performance and glory.

Xiao He said: "My lord, the empire is large enough, is it necessary to conquer so much territory?" With a population of more than 30 million, there is not so much land. ”

Shame!

"Xiao He, General Ben asked you, how is the population growth of the empire?"

"The population of the Kanto region is growing by about 20% per year, and the rest of the region is about 10%."

Hehe!

"Xiao He, what will be the population of the empire in a hundred years?"

Xiao He was dumbfounded!

I really didn't think about it that much.

The population base of the Yanhuang ethnic group reached more than 30 million people during the Qin Empire, why did the population not grow much after a thousand years?

That's because of the war, after the Three Kingdoms entered the 300-year dark age, the Yan and Huang people almost perished. Later, after many foreign invasions, the Yanhuang people were killed too much.

Ye Tong continued: "The population of the empire is too small, so it is necessary to encourage childbirth, and the policy of encouraging childbirth formulated by the cabinet in this regard is good, continue to implement it, don't worry about no land, the imperial soldiers will use their sabers in their hands to take over some borderless land." ”

The bigwigs know in their hearts that there is no standard for what is called Borderland, and there seems to be no standard judgment!

Oh!

By the way, the general once said that the Qin Empire will be the one who sets the standards in the future, and the rules are set by the empire!
