Chapter 836: Heaven's Path Project
In the eyes of these officials, in peacetime, as long as these ordinary people can survive, they will not rebound, unless the intensity of oppression exceeds the limit of what they can accommodate, so that they cannot bear it.
Everyone has the desire to live a good life, which is also the root of the imperial examination in the hearts of the people, otherwise, everyone would not advocate scholars.
As far as the Shengdou Xiaomin is concerned, they have no way to change their fate, unless it is the kind of pie in the sky that is lucky, and a talent is important, otherwise, they can't change the class at all, and now, the Dinghai Navy has given them this opportunity.
In fact, when he saw Ding Haijun's big stroke, Han Qi turned a thought in his heart, that is, whether there would be a problem, but the number of 3 million made him ignore it, it was just 3 million, and for the Northern Song Dynasty, the loss began.
Although the influence of Lianghuai and Jiangnan has appeared, those places are not important places in the hearts of the officials of the traditional Great North, and they believe that the cohesion of the people in the entire Central Plains may be attracted by high incomes, but most of them are still the people of the Great Song Dynasty.
This kind of negligence is the most important, in the whole, as long as you are willing to work, you can change your own destiny under the premise, everyone will work hard, and when the state of life changes, the attraction is not an individual, but a family.
The whole family lived a barren life in the Northern Song Dynasty, they didn't think about it, jumping out of this result, they don't have this opportunity and ability, generally speaking, they don't have the ability to jump out, rather than constantly tossing, so that life falls into an uncertain future, or in the wind and rain, it is better to be honest.
This is the solidified class, it is very normal for the feudal society, those who are dissatisfied with the status quo, or go to the imperial examination, take the single-plank bridge of thousands of troops, or take the sword to the edge, take the day of licking the blood from the edge of the knife, if it is not these two, any of them, it is difficult to get rich overnight.
Even unceremoniously said that the method of two carps jumping over the dragon gate, no matter which one, is not something that ordinary ordinary people can walk, even if it is Diao Xiaoyu, who has been mixed on the street since he was a child, he knows that some money is a bit hard to hold, and he has to take his life, not to mention ordinary people, they can only spend day after day, birth, old age, sickness and death, from birth to death, never stopping.
Dinghai gave them a different choice, a person, even the most basic, can harvest 480 a year, which is compared to other places, 10 years, 20 years may not be able to earn, as long as they arrive in Dinghai, a person works hard, can feed a family, and live a decent life, this kind of attraction is huge for a family.
The people who are determined to be in the navy are all men in the prime of life, which means that he has a high right to speak in the family, and their feelings can directly change a family.
In this way, as long as they are tempted and willing to come, then the guide is not one or two people, as little as four or five people, seven or eight people, more than a dozen people, twenty people, now, the delivery of 2 million, in the future, may become 6 million, 8 million, or even 10 million, which is worth paying attention to.
Even the officials of the Northern Song Dynasty don't know much about the role of the demographic dividend, but the large-scale loss of the population makes it impossible to even make up enough basic labor, which is also a huge impact on the locality, and no official is willing to see this matter.
It's a pity that at present, what the Northern Song Dynasty saw was only the price of 2 million, and did not see the impact after that, and even, even if someone saw it, they wouldn't care.
After all, for the officials in the upper echelons, what are people, what are the promotion of small people, what can be valued, and how much effect can be achieved without these people.
If it is a war era, countless ant people can overturn everything, and even have a huge impact, but in the era of peace, there are a few officials who can see that what they value more is interests.
With enough benefits, not to mention a few less laborers, even if there are fewer people, there is no problem, even if Tang Taizong once said that water can carry a boat and capsize a boat, but even if it was Tang Taizong's understanding, he only understood at that time that he would treat all the people in the world well, and he could not let the people be underfed, otherwise, he could overturn the boat, and he would not see how great the effect was when these people at the bottom and their strength were exerted.
In the traditional feudal society, whether it is an agrarian civilization or a nomadic civilization, the role of people is there, but it is far less important than the role of land.
For nomads, the land represents larger pastures, larger pastures, more cattle and sheep, and the same is true for farming peoples, representing more land and greater accommodating space, this is because the productivity level of these two civilizations is far from reaching the limit, their own land is not fully developed, and there is some overpopulation.
A document that was called the source of disaster by later generations, just like that, through various ways and Dongfu, jointly signed, at this time, what they saw was money, but for the Northern Song Dynasty, it was already a death knell, and in the next few years, the Northern Song Dynasty will continue to lose the population, until there is no longer anything to lose.
Of course, in the eyes of later generations of scholars, this is not necessarily a bad thing, the tide of history, rolling forward, will reverse this trend, all the reversal of this trend, all to this trend to smash, the Ding Navy from the Liao State, there is no worries, with the strength at that time, even if it is forced reunification, it is not the Northern Song Dynasty can stop the rise, the subsequent series of yang conspiracy appeared, the Northern Song Dynasty is also complacent to take advantage, until it can not be stopped.
Although there are also some widows and young people of the Northern Song Dynasty, they have always believed that Zhao Xin was the son of Renzong, although he changed the name of the country, but it was finally continued, but this point of view, not many people agree, in the history books, the Northern Song Dynasty is the Northern Song Dynasty, China is China, has been divided and broken, at the same time, China is moving towards a new civilization.
These are all later words, not to mention for the time being, in this meeting in Dongfu, the center and the local real power faction reached a population export plan, nationwide three draws, and then this money, if the navy does not bear it, the center can pay in advance.
According to the standard of the navy, according to the settling-in allowance of about 40 guan per person, this money may be more than 120 million guan, even if it is the current center, it is not easy to take it out, but in order to get more, Han Qi directly took it down.
Han Qi did this, not because the center was rich, because he believed in the Ding Navy and Zhao Xin's faithfulness, and besides, even the annual management fee of 100 guan could be given in advance, let alone 40 guan settlement fee.
It is not easy to carry out the money when the money is ready, otherwise it will cause incidents, or turmoil or the like, it doesn't matter how many casualties there are, if it affects the overall situation of this labor export, it will be a big trouble.
Han Qi quickly informed the Lifan Yuan and contacted the Dinghai Navy, the ambassador of the Dinghai Navy to the Northern Song Dynasty, who was almost stunned after hearing the news.
This ambassador, named Han Jiang, was born in a high-level official, as early as the Dinghai period, he was a low-level official, and later rose step by step to the current position of a middle-level official, because Sun Yuexi needed to deal with more important matters, and he had to control the overall situation of the entire Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and he was the director of the Northern Song Dynasty Department.
In the last few months, he has been engaged in more secret front activities, relying on the huge strength of the Dinghai Navy in the Northern Song Dynasty, and laying out a large number of routes in Jinghu and Jinghu South.
These two roads, which are inland and in the Yangtze River basin, will become the focus of future migration.
From the various state capitals, propaganda, and the people who were ultimately influenced, if they could not walk through the railway from Bianliang to Shenyang, they could only use this to detour.
Through the inland waterway, under the cover of the huge inland river fleet of the Dinghai Navy, it can be concentrated in place without notice, and when it reaches the Yangtze River, the huge Yangtze River waterway will be a lifeline, as long as there are large enough ships and fast enough, you can go down the river, not to mention that thousands of miles of Jiangling can be returned in one day, that is, three or four days, you can enter the sea from the Yangtze River, once you enter the ocean, it is equivalent to saying that you have entered the territory of the Dinghai Navy, and you are no longer afraid of being discovered.
This work is very cumbersome and costly, and it is necessary to deploy enough forces on various water transportation, and even on various ports on the Yangtze River, even if the Northern Song Dynasty's jurisdiction over non-Gyeonggi areas is not so strict, and the Dinghai Navy needs to be careful in the name of investment and acquisition.
Fortunately, Shenyang did not force down and asked him to complete it in a short time, and it is expected to take 2 years, from this year to the beginning of next year, at most it will be a tentative operation, not an all-out operation.
After the Chinese New Year of the year after tomorrow, it is the time for this line to play a role, and when the time comes, it will start from the time of the New Year, taking advantage of the time of the New Year of the military yamen of various states to start operating, and the whole system will take full action, reaching a speed of 500,000 per day, and strive to use 30 to 40 days to transfer 20 million people.
500,000 per day, this may be the future generations, a busy railway station, the number of passengers sent a day is this number, this line, will pass through the Yangtze River, at least 40 ports, and many water transport for joint transportation, it seems that the pressure is not big, but in fact, 30 days, 20 million people, even in the coordination ability of the navy, it is also a very terrible, as long as there is a problem in one link, it will be in big trouble.
At this juncture, Han Jiang was almost busy with his feet touching the ground, and a large number of personnel and materials were arranged out every day, and at the same time, one by one, the lines were laid down first, and the whole plan, carried out in an orderly manner, has already had a certain effect.
In this case, the Northern Song Dynasty came to him, he thought it was something, don't expose this aspect, for the original plan, he had several layers of plans, and the arrangements were all trustworthy, and even said that some people didn't know what they were carrying out at all, just a simple cargo station, or a temporary storage and transportation project.
However, this thing submitted by the Li Fan Yuan on behalf of the Eastern Mansion surprised him, 3 million people, three draws and one ding, these two data, let his eyes squint sharply, they set the highest requirements of the navy, but they didn't know how to work hard for this requirement, but it was so easy to be done by the Northern Song Dynasty.
Three draws and one ding, this can only be proposed by the East Mansion, and it can only be agreed by Renzong, even if it is Zhao Xin, who once thought of the best state, it is only in the next three to five years to achieve three draws and one point.
But now, right under his nose, just this year, he can be extracted, whether there is a future or not, not to mention for the time being, Han Jiang will not be able to let go of these 3 million young people.
After knowing the purpose of the Li Fan Academy, Han Jiang didn't know whether to laugh or get angry, but what he meant by informing him was not that he was afraid of losing personnel, but whether such a large number of people could scrape together enough money and successfully transport it away.
If the Navy does not have this money, they will either reduce the population, or they can pay the settling-in allowance in advance, and this money, if the Navy wants to pay interest, can also postpone the payment of the same management fee until the beginning of next year.
Han Jiang faced the officials of the Li Fan Yuan, and didn't know what to say, so he directly beat him up and told him that he would give an answer in a few days.
In the eyes of the officials of the Northern Song Dynasty, for such an important matter, 3 million young people, what they saw was not the value of these young people, but the management fee of 300 million yuan for these young people.
This money, perhaps in the eyes of the Northern Song Dynasty, is more than the sky, but in the Dinghai Navy, to be precise, in the current Dinghai Navy's ambassador to the Northern Song Dynasty, Han Jiang, this is really not a lot of money.
In order to transfer the Northern Song Dynasty people's Tianlu plan, in order to successfully transport 20 million Northern Song Dynasty people from the Yangtze River within 30 days, in two years, the Dinghai Navy is ready to invest 700 million yuan.
This fund is already more than twice the unprecedented canal project in the Northern Song Dynasty, in order to send people out safely and quickly, and even these costs, the time to shine is only the 30 days of the Spring Festival of the following year, once it has passed, the entire project will be scrapped, whether the navy takes the Northern Song Dynasty or not, this project has no meaning to continue.
The Northern Song Dynasty, in a short period of time, the 3 million people who were transferred, all of them were young and strong, and they could not use the Tianlu Plan at all, and at the same time, it was a huge supplement to the lack of labor force in the Dinghai Navy.
