Chapter 1002

"What do you mean?" Wang Yang couldn't help but be stunned, looked at Gao Yu in front of him, and it took a long time to react. "You're saying that there are people who want to move to us?"

"Yes, some people on Shaanxi Road want to move their families here, and after the officials inquired, they learned that most of them are the relatives of some traders, and now those Yanzhou are doing business in full swing, and I learned that the Xiangjun who migrated to us before were able to get fields, houses and production tools for free in these three states, and they were also moved......

As a result, those traders went back for the New Year, and the current wealth and immigration policies in these three states really made many villagers and relatives who had lost their land or were too poor to think about it.

However, they were not vans, and they didn't know what kind of preferential migration policies they could have, so they asked those traders they knew well to inquire about the policies in Yanzhou. Naturally, these actions were quickly passed on to the ears of Gao Yu, the governor of Yanzhou.

Gao Yu was both pleasantly surprised, but also a little caught off guard, after all, in addition to the preferential policies for the people in other parts of the Great Song Dynasty to migrate to these six states, what kind of preferential policies there would be for the people in other parts of the Great Song Dynasty to migrate to these six states.

Therefore, Gao Yu decided to go to Hongzhou in person and come to discuss ideas with Wang Yang, the new pacification envoy of the North Shaanxi Road.

Wang Yang himself couldn't help but feel a little painful. "That's a good thing, but ...... If it is handled according to the migration policy of the Xiang army, then this matter is too much, after all, the migration policy of those Xiang army, but the will of the court, and even more so with the will of His Majesty, there is such a big policy preference. ”

"And if we apply this policy to other people who want to move to the land of the six states, I am worried that something will go wrong......"

Gao Yu asked with some astonishment. "My lord, what could be wrong with this?"

"Those people, if they can see that they can come to our six states, the government will not only give them houses, but also fields and all kinds of means of production and subsistence, hehe...... Then I dare to conclude that at least in the neighboring states of North Shaanxi Road, there will definitely be a large number of people flocking here. ”

"At that time, not only will it be difficult for us to deal with it, but the local officials who have lost their people will definitely not sit idly by, and will definitely go to the court to impeach us ......."

"At that time, maybe our policy of benefiting the people will be the source of disputes between the court and local officials."

After listening to Wang Yang's explanation and analysis, Gao Yu couldn't help but think so, and bowed his head again and again, but he still felt unwilling in his heart. "It's a pity, after all, now the population of our North Shaanxi Road, except for those van soldiers and their dependents, is gone, and the population is too scarce in comparison......"

"Not to mention the Jiangnan area, even if it is compared with Naling South Road, I'm afraid it is inferior to ......"

What he said made Wang Yang dumbfounded, that's right, you must know that in an area like the Great Song Dynasty, even if the population of a state is at least four or five hundred thousand. Even in the lower states, it can at least have a population of close to 300,000.

The land of the six states on the North Shaanxi Road is not six counties, but the total population is only 450,000, of which more than 300,000 are all migrants.

If it weren't for the grace of the Son of Heaven and the migration of those Xiang troops and their dependents, then these three states would be so empty that people would be speechless.

Originally, after the three states of Yan, You, and Hong were occupied by the Great Song Dynasty, although a considerable part of the population had fled, there were still some people who stayed before they could evacuate.

It has a total population of nearly 160,000 people, but among these 160,000 people, only 20% are Han people, the remaining more than 110,000 are party members, and some are Tibetans. After that, about 350,000 people migrated.

However, after the war between the two sides began, the party and the people had their own speculations, and the magistrates of the Great Song Dynasty not only acquiesced in this, but should even be said to have a conniving attitude.

After all, for the land of the Great Song Dynasty and Sanzhou, which is in the midst of war, these party and people are definitely unstable bombs, and no one knows when they will explode.

There is also the Youzhou garrison war, Wang Daguan took matters into his own hands and expelled all the party people from the city, naturally, after those party people were taken over by the Western Xia army, they had returned to the territory of Western Xia.

As a result, by the time the war ended, there were no more than 10,000 party people left in these three states, and less than 20,000 of the more than 100,000 party people remained.

As for the three states that were newly occupied by the Great Song Dynasty, they went through difficult negotiations, and in the end, the party and the Tubo people in the three states allowed them to move freely, leaving less than 40,000 Han people.

Even with the 350,000 more people who have migrated, the total population of these six states is now only more than 400,000. Evenly apportioned, the three prefectures of Yan, You, and Hong have a population of less than 150,000. Not to mention that the land of the three states of silver, dragon, and stone is now almost ten rooms and nine empty.

It's really too sparsely populated, so Wang Yang has once again started to play to the court, and he will probably be able to move another 120,000 Xiang troops and their dependents over, but this is already the greatest effort of the Son of Heaven, and the 120,000 Xiang army, together with their dependents, is only 600,000 people.

But the problem is that with a population of 600,000, it is definitely not a trivial matter to let them concentrate from the south and north of the Great Song Dynasty to the North Shaanxi Road, and the cost of the road alone is a large expense.

Not to mention that it still needs to be taken care of by various local governments, and the manpower and material resources to be consumed are extremely amazing. If it weren't for the fact that Wang Daguan sold a large amount of barren land and got millions of yuan, I am afraid that it would really be a little unsupportable.

However, even if these populations are added, they can only be regarded as basic at most, but at present, with the rapid development of economy and commerce in the three states of Yan, You, and Hong, it is really difficult to meet the demand with such a small population.

In the textile industry and planting industry alone, there has been an obvious shortage of labor in the three prefectures of Yan, You, and Hong. You know, this has just sold the barren land in Yanzhou to grow cotton and set up a factory, if it is completely popularized in the land of Sanzhou.

The need for labor will not only triple if it is more than tripled, not to mention that there will also be related industry and agriculture in the three states of silver, dragon and stone.

"In the land of six states, my minimum expectation is that each state will have at least nearly 100,000 to 150,000 laborers, that is, the population of each state will be at least 300,000. The land of six states, that is 1.8 million ......"

"But now, what the court can give us, including the original, is still less than a million, and there is still a gap of eight or nine hundred thousand people." Wang Yang flipped through the information in front of him, and he was in such a bad mood.

If you want to develop these six states, the economy needs to take off, and industry and agriculture need to develop, but the basis of all this is the need for population. Industry and commerce need people, and people are needed everywhere to grow cotton, to cultivate land, to set up factories.

Before, Wan Bin's old driver had complained to him several times, hoping that the follow-up soldiers and their dependents could migrate as soon as possible, so that he could open more factories and plant more cotton as soon as possible.

"But my lord, we can't just watch it like this, after all, if we want to vigorously develop North Shaanxi Road and become an important place in the northwest of the Great Song Dynasty in the future, this population is the most important thing." Gao Yu stared at Wang Yang and said.

"I naturally understand this, but you wait for me to think about it first, and see if there is any way to solve the current dilemma, but also not lead to disputes between North Shaanxi Road and the surrounding states and counties."
