Yuan Xi was satisfied, with so many talents, if he couldn't even manage a Youzhou, then he could really hit the tofu and die.

As for the generals, they added a Dian Wei and Mi Fang, and Dian Wei Yuan Xi asked him to follow Yuan Xiang first to get familiar with it, and then prepare to divide the power of the pro-guard commander into two, and the two of them will manage half of it, so that the defense will be more tight.

After discussing everything, Yuan Xi sent everyone away and pulled Mi Zhu towards his backyard.

Because he heard that in order to avoid suspicion, after the Mi Zhu family came, they hadn't told Mi Zhen, who had been hiding in the house, which made him very speechless.

On the way, Yuan Xi inquired around the corner that the Mi family's industry had basically been transferred to Youzhou, and Qingzhou did not ask for anything.

Now it is equivalent to that most of the industries of the Zhen family and the Mi family have been transferred to Youzhou, Yuan Xi knows that some of his plans can also be implemented, and he is ready to hand over the small and easy inventions that he thought of when he was bored before to the two families to do, and even let them set up a chamber of commerce or something.

Due to the contact between Youzhou and the barbarians, Yuan Xi was also ready to promote business exchanges with them. With such a development, he believes that it will not be long before his Youzhou will reach another level.

Because it is almost the end of the year, the population statistics have also come down, and when he reported just now, Cai Yong told him that at present, Youzhou has increased from less than 400,000 people (Gongsun Du controls more than 100,000, a total of more than 500,000), to almost 600,000, which means that in just over a year, Youzhou's population has increased by nearly 200,000.

This is undoubtedly an astonishing number, because according to Yuan Xi's idea, within five years, it would be considered qualified to grow so much, but he didn't expect to complete the goal in just one year.

However, the population of Youzhou is still not worth mentioning compared to his heyday, when Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty, Youzhou had a population of more than two million, but later various Yellow Turban Wars, Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao Wars, the population loss and death caused by it were directly six or seven, which can be said to be quite tragic.

As a result, when he first came, the population of Youzhou was less than 400,000.

Now there are more than 600,000 people, and Yuan Xi is not too surprised, because the population of Jizhou next door is more than 2 million (preferably more than 5 million), although they have also been affected by the Yellow Turban, but due to the large population base, there are still a lot left.

Another example is the merger of the state, but also only suffered from the Yellow Turban, the current population is still more than 400,000 (up to more than 600,000), in general, relatively speaking, Youzhou is a large location, experienced a lot of wars, the loss of population, is still very tragic.

However, Yuan Xi also knew that in the future, he was afraid that the population would be even less, and the Han Dynasty had a population of tens of millions at its peak, and then the Three Kingdoms stabilized, and the population was counted as soon as it was counted, that is, the population actually consumed 99%.

Therefore, there are some places with a large population now, and he is not worried, he knows that sooner or later, these places will lose a lot of people, such as Luoyang Chang'an.

As long as he can develop slowly now, he doesn't ask for much, and he can restore the population in his heyday, and he will be satisfied.

But he also knows that it is basically impossible to restore the population in its heyday. Because there is not that much time.

Thinking of these in his heart, Yuan Xi and Mi Zhu had already arrived in the middle courtyard.

Zou Jia seemed to get the news, and happened to rush over, and when he saw Yuan Xi, he excitedly wanted to call, but when he saw that there were outsiders, he could only press his excitement.

"Husband, you're back." Zou Jiaying gave a salute, and then also gave Mi Zhu a gift.

Mi Zhu didn't expect that Yuan Xi was no worse than his sister as a random woman, and the expression on the corner of his mouth was a little stunned, but fortunately, he was calm, and he quickly reacted and bowed deeply.

Yuan Xi stepped forward and grabbed Zou Jia's arm and said, "Come to introduce you, introduce, this is Mi Zhen's brother, now don't drive for us in Youzhou, you can call him Mi Beijia." ”

"I've seen Mi Bei Driving." Zou Jia gave another blessing.

Mi Zhu didn't dare to raise his head, and hurriedly returned a salute.

When Yuan Xi wanted to take him in again, Mi Zhu didn't want to, and said that it was good to be here.

Yuan Xi had no choice but to ask Zou Jia to call Mi Zhen over.

The two sat down on the side, talking about some things about the future governance of Youzhou, and Yuan Xi also deliberately mentioned the reform of commerce. Although there was little time, Mi Zhu was greatly surprised when he heard it, and nodded frequently.

At this time, although the main body is heavy on agriculture and suppressing business, Mi Zhu is essentially a businessman, although he feels that it is a little inappropriate for Yuan Xi to talk about these things with him, but he is still very surprised in his heart.

While talking, Cai Yan led Mi Zhen and Zou Jia over.

Cai Yan didn't look at Yuan Xi, and saluted Mi Zhu: "Wen Ji has seen Mi Beijia. ”

Mi Zhu and her excited sister nodded, hurriedly stood up, and said respectfully towards the graceful and luxurious Cai Yan: "I have seen Mrs. Cai Yan is quite famous, Mi Zhu didn't expect to see him.

Cai Yan talked to him lightly, then looked at his husband, and then stood behind him.

"Brother, why are you here?" Mi Zhen took her reluctant gaze away from Yuan Xi, calmed down, and asked strangely.

Because Yuan Xi was on the side, Mi Zhu was somewhat restrained, and when he talked to his sister, he was also one-sided, looking at Yuan Xi and just wanting to laugh.

Cai Yan secretly pulled the hem of his clothes in the back, and Yuan Xi turned around and was about to pull her arm, but Cai Yan dodged him.

"Husband, when your brothers and sisters meet, don't you let them make way?" Cai Yan suggested in a low voice.

"Yes, yes, yes." Yuan Xi looked back and smiled: "Zhen'er, your two elder brothers are now officials in my Youzhou, your brother is not driving, and the second brother is the guard of Fanyang County, I will allow you to go back for three days and have a good reunion with them." ”

After getting married, her husband's family comes first, and now that Yuan Xi has only returned, Mi Zhen still wants to stay with Yuan Xi more, which is also in line with the rules.

However, Yuan Xi's next sentence quickly dispelled her thoughts: "Second uncle is estimated to go to Fanyang County tomorrow, and you may not see each other when you go back later." ”

Mi Zhen's nose was sour, and she was moved: "Thank you, husband." ”

Yuan Xi stepped forward and took her in his arms, kissed her in front of Mi Zhu, and said with a warm smile: "You can go back when you want to go back in the future, anyway, they are all in the eastern district of Jixian County, and they are not far away." Besides, you and I have nothing to thank you and my husband and wife. ”

Mi Zhen glanced at her brother, saw him lowering her eyebrows, and kissed Yuan Xi fiercely with shame, and then left him and said, "Brother, let's go back." ”

Mi Zhu nodded, and after saying goodbye to everyone, he led Mi Zhen back.

Seeing that there was no one around, Yuan Xi directly hugged Cai Yan, a pair of big hands caressed her back fiercely, and his mouth kissed her cherry lips.

There's a game today, and you'll have to watch the game, two chapters.
