"Xingong, we can indeed solve the sale of two million treasury bonds."

Li Dingguo said very frankly.

At this time, the communication station from Nanjing to Guiyang has been built and used, and the use effect of this thing in the Yunnan-Guizhou mountain area is actually better, after all, its transmission route is a straight line, and the two mountains are directly erected one each, which can basically solve the mountain road post horse running for half a day, the only trouble is the difficulty of construction......

That's the real tough.

In order to repair to Guiyang, it took three full years for the communication office under Jinyiwei, and many places were simply uninhabited primeval forests, and mountain roads had to be opened, and all kinds of parts had to be carried. Nearly 10,000 mountain people were hired for three years, during which they were bitten by wild beasts because of falling off cliffs, poisonous snake bites, infections and even wild beasts, a total of nearly 100 Jinyi guards and more than 400 employees died.

Although this kind of communication tower is not reliable, especially in rainy and foggy days, it is basically useless, and the light can only transmit simple messages at night.

But it still made a qualitative change in communication.

In just two days, when there were sunny days and no fog along the line, the news of Nanjing could be transmitted to Guiyang.

Of course, this is ideal.

Yang Qing's ultimatum to Zhang Xianzhong was sent directly to Guiyang with a communication tower, and then sent to Chongqing by Guiyang as a stagecoach relay, and Chongqing was then sent to Chengdu by stagecoach......

"But we also have conditions!"

Li Dingguo said.

Zhang Xianzhong is indeed reluctant to give up two million, the Sichuan gentry will not take the initiative to buy, and in the end he has to forcibly apportion it, and he and his generals will act as salesmen for Yang Qing to force the gentry to buy, but this involves an exchange of interests, he has to take out the benefits to exchange with the gentry, and he can't be on the same stick as Li Zicheng, right? He wants to be the Holy Lord Mingjun, and he can't be so barbaric as Li Zicheng, but if he pays benefits to exchange with the gentry, then Yang Qing has to exchange benefits with him, in the end, he Zhang Xianzhong is not Yang Qing's house slave, and he will not do it in vain.

"Say, I like to be open and honest!"

Yang Qing said.

"First, stop continuing to resettle Huangzhuang migrants to Sichuan."

Li Dingguo said.

In the past few years, Yang Qing forcibly resettled more than 300,000 immigrants in eastern Sichuan, most of whom were immigrants from Shandong, Henan and even Hebei, and established more than 200 imperial villages in eastern Sichuan in the form of land reclamation, and organized into three militia armies. Because of the language barrier and no kinship with the locals, the people of Huangzhuang were extremely grouped, and their daily military training and weapons reserves allowed them to become an army at any time, compared to them, the gentry who supported Zhang Xianzhong in eastern Sichuan were completely suppressed.

In fact, the two sides are also in constant friction.

But the Ming army in Fuzhou was watching there, and Sun Kewang, who was stationed in Chongqing, did not dare to move, and only the gentry's armed forces were basically hanged and beaten.

You must know that Huangzhuang does not pay taxes.

Huangzhuang will not pay taxes to Zhang Xianzhong, Huangzhuang only pays land rent, but the land rent is handed over to Zhang Yan's subordinate Lu Jiude is responsible for the imperial property supervisor, at this time the twelve eunuchs of the inner court still exist, but the imperial horse supervisor was changed to the imperial property supervisor. The celebrant is still the boss, and the eunuch is Han Zanzhou, but he is only in charge of the internal affairs of the palace, the imperial property supervisor is the second, and the admiral eunuch Lu Jiude is in charge of the land rent of the imperial village and Zhang Yan's private property.

These rents were used for various expenses belonging to the royal family, such as the daily expenses of all the palace ladies and eunuchs, the maintenance of the imperial tombs, the repair of the palace, but now also included the local Salesian Bureaus.

This has gradually become a big head.

The Salesian Bureaus opened in the names of Zhang Yan, Concubine Yuan, and Princess Kunxing are responsible for adopting those old people who have no children and daughters, as well as orphans who have lost their parents. As for the rent collection of the Huangzhuang, they don't need to take care of it, the militia system can just hand it over to Lu Jiude after collecting it, and with the increasing number of Huangzhuang, the income of the imperial property supervision is increasing every year, and there is no need to use the money of the imperial court at all. However, at the same time, more and more charity is spent in various places, and the compulsory education that has just begun in Nanjing is also paid by the imperial property supervisor, which is under the banner of Zhang Yan and Princess Kunxing, and those compulsory education primary schools are named after them.

But for Zhang Xianzhong, these imperial villages are purely a scourge, not only will they not pay him taxes, but they may also form an army to deal with him at any time, and more importantly, they will also absorb the poor to join.

This is also the gnashing of the gentry everywhere.

In particular, there is a lot of wasteland in eastern Sichuan, and those who are unwilling to be tenants for the landlords can open up the wasteland near Huangzhuang and then sign up to join, and there are also yeoman farmers who bring their own land to join, and the result of them all going to Huangzhuang can only be that the gentry reduce rent to retain tenants. Anyway, it is useless to take extraordinary measures, and if you join the Huangzhuang, you will be protected by the Huangzhuang, and the people who dare to move will immediately copy the guys.

It is said that the gentry in eastern Sichuan were made into a false fire by these imperial villages.

But there is nothing to be done.

Zhang Xianzhong also watched them grow bigger, but he was helpless, after all, this was what Yang Qing and him clearly agreed to back then.

Now is undoubtedly a good opportunity.

"No, this is what was said at the beginning, I am the most trustworthy person, and what I promised will definitely be done, but in the same way, what others promised me must also be done, Zhang Xianzhong promised this back then, then he must keep his promise!"

Yang Qing said unceremoniously.

"Xingong, now we are helping you!"

Li Dingguo said.

"Wrong, you are just fulfilling your obligations, don't think that letting you divide Sichuan is making you a country of your own, Sichuan is still the Ming Dynasty, and you are still the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty. So you must also fulfill the obligations of a Ming courtier, if you can't fulfill your obligations, then I can remove you from your position, if you don't accept it, then you are rebelling against the court, then don't blame my army for rebellion! ”

Yang Qing said.

"Xingong, we have an army of 200,000!"

Li Dingguo said.

"I have 400,000!"

Yang Qing said.

Li Dingguo was speechless.

"Let's talk about something else, you don't have to think about the affairs of the Huangzhuang, I can clearly say that it is a blunt knife to cut you, but you can't reduce the rent to less than fifty percent, then don't blame the tenants for running away to the Huangzhuang. I am a conspiracy, how you should deal with yourself is also very clear, if you also rent 30% of the land estimates that the people of Huangzhuang should run out, after all, in Huangzhuang is to prepare for the battlefield. But you are all sixty or seventy percent of the rent, of course the tenants are all running to Huangzhuang, I not only want to build Huangzhuang in the east of Sichuan, I also want to continue to push westward, saying that last year more than 100,000 people fled from the Jiannu-controlled area, and I am ready to stuff them all into Sichuan. ”

Yang Qing said.

It is said that a great exodus is indeed taking place in the area controlled by Dorgon, and more than 10,000 people flee to the area controlled by the Ming army in various ways every month.

After all, the common people will choose with their feet.

Dolgon has played with the peasant system, as long as the people have the conditions, who doesn't want to escape to the south and join the light? Especially in the coastal area south of Tianjin, not to mention getting a small wooden boat, even if you set up a raft, you can row across the mouth of the Daqing River, not to mention that there are often Ming warships training along the coast, and you will be saved if you row over. This large-scale exodus even affected the production of Changlu salt, and our Daqing Dynasty, which owns the Changlu salt farm, actually began to run out of salt, after all, those stove fishermen are often the easiest to escape.

Now there are even professional snakeheads.

It is indeed not so easy to flee on the land of the Yellow River, and the Mongolian cavalry patrolled the nomadic patrol in the buffer zone to capture the fugitives, but there is also Taihang Mountain!

The area around Zelu is Jiang Xuan's.

This king of Pingxi of our Qing Dynasty has been controlling the Zelu area all these years, he is similar to Zhang Xianzhong on Yang Qing's side, but he has more or less connected with the Ming army over the years, after all, he wants to say that Li Zicheng betrayed Chongzhen when he entered Beijing, but he descended to the Qing Dynasty in the hands of Li Zicheng, and from this point of view, he actually has no enmity with the Ming army.

In this case, the area under his control was the most important land escape area, and the people of Hebei crossed the Taihang Mountains into the territory of the King of Pingxi, and bribed Jiang Jiu's subordinates with his small property in the arrest of the King of Pingxi, and then went south out of Tianjing Pass and entered the area of Weihui controlled by the Ming army. Then the officials who specially received it there were organized to take a boat down the Yellow River, all the way to the distribution office in Zhenjiang according to the plan, Sichuan, Huguang, Yunnan, Guizhou, and even Taiwan and Hainan Island, in short, this is voluntary, but different places are treated differently.

Go to the highest in Taiwan and Hainan Island.

Those who are willing to go to these two places not only receive a full set of seeds, farm tools, pots and pans, clothes, shoes and socks, and a year's rations, but also do not pay rent for 20 years.

As for infectious diseases......

Huangzhuang is equipped with a medical center, there is an epidemic prevention manual written by Doctor Yang himself, a variety of medicines provided for free and even a free mosquito net, in short, it provides a full range of services, as long as you are willing to go to anything, it is easy to say. Anyway, with the products of that place, as long as you can settle down when you go, you basically don't have to worry about anything anymore, in other words, you can go hunting with an allotted archer crossbow and an old-fashioned musket.

Actually, there are quite a few of them!

At this time, even the Tamsui area already had the first imperial village, of course, not those immigrants had the spirit of overcoming obstacles, in fact, they were all coaxed by those immigration officials. The latter coaxed anyone who went to Taiwan to get additional rewards, and those who immigrated to Taiwan were all dumbfounded after the wilderness......

Will they be able to swim back?

However, the most popular ones are still Huguang and Sichuan, the first Huguang and the second Sichuan, and the vast majority of immigrants have been resettled in these two provinces, in fact, with the current population of these two provinces, it is no problem to fill in the entire population of Hebei. Even Sichuan alone can accommodate it, and the Ming Dynasty's desire to safely survive the Xiaoice River period is actually very simple, that is, large-scale immigration to Sichuan organized by the government.
