Section 225 Drawing cakes

The effect of Liu Jin's speech was good, and Zhang Yue was surprised.

Looking around the audience, not to mention the common people, even among the Haoqiang clan, there were many people who were so moved that they almost didn't crawl over and swear allegiance.

However, if you think about it, this should also be normal.

For Chinese, there are many things that are buried deep in the bone marrow, engraved into the genes, and not changed by the times and social changes.

Among them, it includes the desire and yearning for the politics of 'Ming Monarch and Sage' and 'Ming Monarch and Sage'.

Even if it is another two thousand years, even a person who can sing 'There has never been a savior', I am afraid that he will not be able to escape the yearning and desire for Mingjun in his heart.

Liu Jin's performance is not only qualified, but also excellent!

Zhang Yue calmed slightly, he knew that he couldn't let Liu Jin's efforts go to waste.

He then carried the ribbon, stepped forward slightly, and bowed to the Haoqiang, nobles, three elders and the people present: "The younger generation is ordered by the Son of Heaven to be the eldest grandson, and since that day and night, he has worked hard for the well-being of the people of Xinfeng......

"As the saying goes, the new official takes office with three fires, and the younger generation is not talented, but now that he has taken office, he has decided to burn this first fire!"

Countless Haoqiang were nervous and uneasy when they heard this, for fear that this 'Zhang Chiyou' would arrest and kill people on the spot if they didn't agree with each other!

It's not like nothing hasn't happened before.

In fact, the cool officials of the Han family like to kill people on the first day of their office.

Many people even believe in the truth that 'the more you kill, the more authority you have'.

More than one Wang Wenshu and Yi Zong once started the unparalleled lawn mowing mode in their counties, sweeping away the local heroes.

If this 'Zhang Chiyou' learns from his predecessors......

Many people's hearts immediately hung in the air.

Ma Yuan was even more bitter melon-colored.

Just listened to this 'Zhang Chiyou' and clapped his hands gently.

Then, a few officials came forward with a bundle of cloth.

This 'Zhang Chiyou' smiled and pulled the cloth-like thing away, and a huge map of Xinfeng appeared in front of everyone.

I saw this 'Zhang Chiyou' walk up to this Kanyu, stretched out his hand to draw a circle on it, and then smiled at everyone: "This first fire...... The younger generation promises to build four channels in Xinfeng County this winter and before spring ploughing next year......"

"The first one, digging the Elm Stream, to Guanyangli, Elm Tree and the surrounding three pavilions...... It is estimated that the length of the canal is 10 miles, and the irrigated land is more than 7,000 acres......"

"The second, open the Wei River, lead its water from Xiangli into Linwei, the canal is eight miles long, and irrigate about 5,000 acres of land in two pavilions......"

"The third one, dig the stream, divert the water into Lixiang, and irrigate the three pavilions......"

"Fourth, the water of the Li River enters Xinfeng City, irrigates 2,000 acres of land outside the city, and provides water for the residents in the city!"

………………………………

"This ......"

Countless powerful landlords listened to it with a relaxed heart, fascinated, and even excited, and it was difficult to restrain themselves!

"It's actually a repair channel!" The landlords and heroes immediately lit up their eyes, like evil wolves, and looked around, their eyes blooming with a fierce green light.

Water conservancy channels are a win-win situation in the Han Dynasty.

The construction of water conservancy channels not only benefits the country, but also benefits the people.

The reason is very simple, the powerful have more slaves and more land.

Once you repair the channel, you can earn a lot of money and food, and if the channel is repaired locally, then you can reap the maximum benefits.

You have to know that before the Common Era, there were two kinds of land, the land irrigated by channels and the land without canals.

The former has a dead yield of two stones per mu, and the latter may yield three stones, four stones, or even five or six stones per mu.

Basically, if the Han magistrates wanted to harvest the hearts of the people and obtain political achievements, the best way was always to build water conservancy.

In the first twenty or thirty years after his ascension to the throne, countless infrastructure maniacs also emerged in the Han family.

Zhang Tang even once had a big brain, wanting to carve a waterway from Guanzhong to connect the Wei River, the Han River and the Yangtze River.

It was also put into practice, but because the project was too difficult and the technical conditions were not ripe at all, it had to be abandoned.

And there was also a county guard in Hedong County who felt that Sanmenxia was too much of an eyesore, and wanted to dig Sanmenxia and tame the Yellow River.

It was also put into practice, but in the end, it also failed.

But in addition to these failures, there are also countless successes.

Yan Xiong chiseled the Longshou Canal, Xianxuan opened the nullah, Erkuan built the six auxiliary canals, and successively three Shaofu Secretaries relayed and dug the Kunming Pool.

This is still a water conservancy project started in Guanzhong.

At that time, almost the entire world of officials was obsessed with the construction of water conservancy and the slaughter of the powerful and could not extricate themselves.

However, since the Yuan Feng year, the construction speed of the world's water conservancy projects has almost come to a standstill.

Officials don't seem to be keen on water conservancy construction anymore.

As more and more Confucian scholars take power at the grassroots level, there are fewer and fewer people willing to do such a thankless task as water conservancy repair, which may be picked by others.

Today, Guanzhong has not built water conservancy facilities for 10 years.

Not to mention a large-scale project like the Longshou Canal, it is a new small water conservancy project, and it has not been built.

Of course, this pot cannot be carried by all Confucians.

This is inseparable from the development of the social environment.

Since the closure of the Yuan Dynasty, the rate of bankruptcy of yeoman farmers and the middle class has been increasing at an increasing rate.

The bankruptcy of these people has directly led to the depletion of local fiscal revenues.

If you don't have money, you can build a P water conservancy!

In fact, if Zhang Yue hadn't had Liu Jin and the Son of Heaven as backers, he would have come to Xinfeng, and it would have been difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

And, as soon as Zhang Yue met now, he announced that he would repair water conservancy, and one repair was four.

This immediately made his image in the hearts of the powerful nobles of the landlords of Xinfeng change from 'Zhang Chiyou' to 'Zhang Yiwu'.

Repair water conservancy, this is water conservancy!

The Fortune Boy is here!

And those four channels, the heroes and landlords in the pavilion they passed were even more eager to run forward, hugging Zhang Yue's thighs and shouting: "Dad, I was wrong!" ”

There is no way, as soon as these four channels are repaired, the land at home will immediately change from a saline-alkali land with no output to the best irrigated land and a field.

Just by changing this identity, one's own property can immediately increase by two or three times!

What a gift package from heaven!

"Ming Gong is wise!" More than a dozen landlords were strong and immediately shouted loudly.

These people are naturally the people of the places where these channels pass.

The other Haoqiang are somewhat unpleasant.

"Why is Ming Gong so kind to me!" There was an objection.

Immediately, it attracted countless people to echo it, which since ancient times, it has not suffered from inequality.

Zhang Yue smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to everyone: "Fathers and brothers don't have to worry......

"This time, the younger generation was ordered to come to Xinfeng, not only this year, but not only four!" He jerked open the drape, revealing another map that had been obscured.

On this map, the vertical and horizontal open channels, densely packed, like spider webs, link the county's township pavilions together, forming a huge water conservancy network.

"This is approved by the Son of Heaven and ordered by me to build a water conservancy channel for Xinfeng in the next five years......"

"A total of 48 channels connecting the county's township pavilions ......"

"In addition, I will also vigorously promote water wheels in Xinfeng to irrigate farmland ......"

"Giving Father and Brother New Farming Implements and Their Farming Methods ......"

"Within five years...... Zhang Yue stretched out five fingers, patted his chest, and said solemnly: "It will double the yield per mu of Xinfeng, from two stones per mu to more than four stones per mu!" ”

"Double the income of the people of Xinfeng, from 10,000 yuan per capita to 20,000 yuan!"

"The number of households should be increased to at least 15,000, and the land should be increased to at least 150,000 mu!"

"This official has already made a military order in front of the Son of Heaven, if you can't do it, you will be punished by military law!"

Listening to the future prosperity depicted by Zhang Yue, and then looking at the map in front of him that has countless channels to connect the whole county.

The powerful are in their blood, the landlords are dancing, and even the three elders feel their hearts pounding.

Now, no one thinks that this new county honorable and mid-serving official is a terrifying 'Zhang Chiyou'.

If he can do what he says, even if it's only halfway.

It is also the Duke of Zhou who is alive and summons the Duke to be resurrected.

It's Guan Yiwu, it's Ximen Leopard, it's Li Bing.

The whole county, let alone worship, set up a memorial for him, pray every year, and people will be willing.

And the onlookers were more excited than the heroes.

Wang Fugui and others, even happy ones were about to faint.

"Long live the Holy Son of Heaven!" Hundreds of people laughed, cried, and shouted loudly, expressing their happiness and joy: "His Royal Highness the eldest grandson will enjoy wealth forever!" Zhang County respects the prince of Wandai! ”

Zhang Yue and Liu Jin looked at all this with a smile.

Carrots have always been served with sticks to make them more delicious. Isn't it?
