Chapter 230: The Model of New Luoyang

Yidao and the bull accompanied Yu Hualong and Niu Jinxing to the next location, which is Li Shaoxian's new Luoyang. After coming here, Niu Jinxing feels a little different from other places, Zhao Ducheng is a castle look, Fu Guancheng is like a port, Lima City is like a big bazaar, but the new Luoyang is very different from when he left last year, the original city is very chaotic, the house is built on the mountain, there is no smooth street, and the small river in the west is sprinkled with messy garbage. Around the city set up all kinds of factories, ores are in a mess.

Now, a year later, the environment has changed dramatically, starting with the formation of green paths around the houses built around the hill, which are basically taken from the rocks on the side of the mountain, and even if it rains, it will not prevent pedestrians from passing through. The river channel on the west side of the city has been widened and strengthened into rows of wharves, reasonable garbage has been thoroughly removed, and the mines around the city have been relocated to fixed industrial land plots, on the edge of the city. The whole city is neat and hygienic, it looks like a big garden, and even the Indians who live in the city are very cleanly dressed. Yu Hualong and Niu Jinxing looked at this beautiful city, they couldn't help but be curious, and they appreciated Li Shaoxian's ability very much, this matter is definitely worth promoting to the Ming Dynasty. After meeting Li Shaoxian, Yu Hualong and Niu Jinxing inquired in detail about the change process of the city, and Li Shaoxian described the incident to them in detail.

It turned out that the environment of this new Luoyang was very bad, in addition to forcing the indigenous people to believe in their religion, the Spanish colonists here also brought them a variety of infectious diseases, including smallpox, plague, measles, influenza and other viruses, plus some diseases brought by the Ming population who came here, in Hualong, Niu Venus They left not long after they left, measles and influenza occurred, the locals were afraid of tigers, and left here one after another, even the merchants of the Ming Dynasty were far away, This is actually due to the fact that the capture of New Luoyang City at that time was partly caused by the unclean cleaning of the battlefield, and the reason for the rapid increase in the population here. After the outbreak of infectious diseases, hundreds of deaths were caused, which attracted Li Shaoxian's attention, and Li Shaoxian was helpless in this regard, so he had to look for a doctor among the people left behind by Daming.

Fortunately, there is really a doctor among the craftsmen left from the Ming Dynasty, and this person is also a famous infectious disease doctor Wu Youke, this person is now in his forties, Zhu Youxiao once sent someone to find this person, but he didn't find it at the time, I don't know how he got here with the fleet. At Wu Youke's suggestion, Li Shaoxian isolated all people infected with infectious diseases in one place, and divided these people into mild, moderate, and severe cases for treatment. Also under the suggestion of Wu Youke, a large amount of lime was burned, this kind of thing is very easy to find from local materials, and the process is not very complicated, the craftsmen here will burn lime a lot of people, in a very short period of time burned millions of catties, under the guidance of Wu Youke, all the places that may be polluted are sprinkled with thick lime, and even the yards of each household are sprinkled, the result is very obvious, in a very short period of time to stop the number of people who get sick.

In the following time, Wu Youke began to treat the sick people using his own research methods, except for some serious patients who died, the rest of the moderate and mild patients were basically cured, Wu Youke was become a miracle doctor by the people here, and many cured patients offered Wu Youke's image at home, as a god to ward off evil spirits.

After the infectious disease passed, Xinluoyang slowly regained its vitality, but Wu Youke was very worried about this matter, and suggested that Li Shaoxian try his best to ensure that the environment here must be clean and hygienic, otherwise if a similar disease occurs again next time, it will cause immeasurable losses.

Li Shaoxian very much agreed with Wu Youke's point of view, and since then he has started the vigorous New Life Movement in New Luoyang. Anyone has a natural fear of disease, and no one wants to be infected with an inexplicable disease, and Wu Youke's reputation has been supported by curing countless patients, so this thing has been carried out very smoothly in Xinluoyang.

First of all, a large number of smelting factories began to move from the city to a location far away from the city center, where Li Shaoxian demarcated a relatively large factory land, and all the land was used free of charge, which reduced a lot of burden on the factory owners, and in order to facilitate the use of water sources, an artificial canal was dug to separate it from the river at the edge of the city, so as not to pollute the drinking water source. The second is to vigorously clean up the small river that flows through the city, salvage all the dirty things that people throw into the small river at will, and then start to solidify the river with stones, and prohibit anyone from throwing garbage into the small river. In order to keep the river clean, Li Shaoxian also set up a garbage pond similar to that of later generations, and sent people to clean it up every day, as for human feces, urine and other household garbage, he also sent people to collect it, and every morning there were incense trucks calling people from street to street to dump and urine.

The smelter leaves the center of the city, and the vacated place can be reasonably planned, in accordance with the way of building the city of Luoyang City and Kaifeng City in the Ming Dynasty, combined with the topography here, it has formed a unique urban environment here, and more than a year of hard work has not been in vain, resulting in this charming small city, the population has more than doubled than the original, reaching the scale of nearly 200,000 people.

Although he is still a military attaché, after all, he is still a person who has passed the examination, Li Shaoxian has studied at the Daming Official School and also stayed in the Military Academy, so his management level is still very high. After the initial management of the environmental sanitation problem of New Luoyang, he put the governance of the entire territory in the highest priority, he will all the construction of towns, are designed in accordance with the layout of New Luoyang, and then according to the actual geography and topography of each town, carry out ingenious collocation, minimize the pollution of the environment, to avoid the occurrence of diseases such as New Luoyang.

In order to realize the development of the new Luoyang area as soon as possible, Li Shaoxian also arranged a certain number of people from the craftsman team to carry out short-term training like the Ming official school, and also recruited a large number of grass-roots management personnel from the indigenous Indians for training, so as to ensure that there are enough village and town management personnel, and the entire new Luoyang area will be brought into a very efficient management level, and the real implementation of a well-organized management system will be very rapid in terms of both public security and economic development.

Choose a part of the smaller boats converted into fishing boats, the use of trawl fishing, the harvest of fish for deep processing, the sea is still original now, the resources are endless, it is very simple to meet the large number of people to eat, after deep processing of the sea fish fresh and delicious, fully embodies the connotation of Daming food culture, plus the fertile land here, corn, wheat production is much higher than the Ming Dynasty, which has enough food to ensure that people eat, rich a large number of labor, The surplus labor force is recruited by a large number of factories to produce a large number of industrial products, as well as a large number of ores, where the ore that cannot be further processed is stored, including a large amount of copper ore, saltpeter, etc., which will be shipped back to China in the future, and iron ore will be directly smelted here. It's really good, many of these craftsmen know how to make steel, and a small steelmaking plant has been built here, and the steel used to make cannons can't be refined, but the steel for making small mortars and simple blaster steel is still possible, and as for the production of agricultural tools and daily necessities, these are not a problem.

After the training of the Daming technical school is not simple, a variety of craftsmen have, in addition to some factory craftsmen, the craftsmen who make daily furniture here are more played their specialties, like what tables, chairs, benches and other wood products, the use of woodworking machine tools can quickly manufacture a large number of furniture, compared to the manual hand saw, planer, chisel is much faster, these are greatly satisfied with the use of urban and rural population, advanced iron knives, ox ploughing iron plows, shovels, sickles, etc., All these have greatly improved production efficiency, so that these goods not only meet the needs of nearby farmers and farms, but also exported to the east of the mountains.

After the great development of the coastal area, the development to the east of the Dilera Mountains has become an inevitable possibility, the Indian soldiers trained by Li Shaoxian are now very loyal to his rule, along with the route of goods, the army of New Luoyang has also begun to expand to the depths of the South American continent, the Europeans in these places have not entered too much, just simply clean them out, more of the local indigenous Indian tribes, seeing the arrival of Li Shaoxian's army, these people did not have a little fear, Instead, they joined the management system of Xinluoyang very cooperatively, and who didn't want to live better, that is, the new production tools in the Xinluoyang area conquered them, not to mention the soldiers with firing guns. In order to ensure the stability of the lives of these indigenous people, the soldiers began to help these indigenous people build a fixed place to live, and with houses that could shelter them from the wind and rain, no one would wander around anymore, and gradually villages were formed, and tribes became villages.
