Li Xuanqing's words quickly became a reality in just a few years, because of the connivance and protection of this kind of human trafficking and human robbery by the imperial military and government, although Li Xuanqing's words of capturing 10 million people within five years were not realized, but they really added 7 million Tianzhu people to the Central Plains, and after the National Guard relaxed the restrictions on the age and gender of the population, as long as they were not old and weak, they basically took all the orders, which was equivalent to further stimulating this unprecedented population relocation. In order to deal with a series of problems brought about by this large-scale increase in foreign population, the cabinet issued more than a dozen policies and issued a dozen policies to the Central Plains and the surrounding provinces responsible for receiving the Tianzhu people, requiring the local political envoys to strictly abide by the cabinet's policy of not allowing the Tianzhu people to go out of a specific area within five years, and also adopted a similar isolation policy for the people of the Tang Dynasty. However, the time limit of these policies is five years, which means that after five years, not only can these Tianzhu people slowly become their own people under the operation of the empire, but they are also allowed to have free contact with the people of the empire, and even move around freely. In doing so, it would be tantamount to giving the empire five years to fully squeeze the surplus labor of these people. In fact, these Tianzhu people were also assigned to those high-risk mining industries and labor-intensive large-scale outdoor work, providing the most basic human resources for the development of the empire's industry under the full escort of the National Guard.

Li Xuanqing handed over this matter to Cen Tianshi and Xu Tianxiang to deal with, and he and Qiaoxi plunged headlong into the practical application of large machinery. Although it seems that the industrial revolution has taken root in the land of China, and Datang has even established a full set of industrial categories and a complete industrial system, it is still moving slowly on the road of mechanical use. Even the launch and use of the simplest vehicles could not meet Li Xuanqing's requirements. Although the vehicles powered by the steam engine looked ugly and could not be compared with the locomotives powered by the internal combustion engine of later generations, after all, the machine already had the ability to replace human and animal power, and if it could be popularized, it would certainly greatly reduce the burden of labor that was already missing.

In order to achieve this goal, Qiaoxi issued a new order in all the industries under the royal assets, and required Zhang Qiang to do it before the end of the year, where the transportation, personnel and material flow, production, etc. within the royal assets involve 21 large and small industrial links, the machine utilization rate must reach about 50%, eliminate the original precipitation in the accumulation of redundant manpower in each link to the market, from the royal assets to take the lead in popularizing mechanization.

It can be said that this order made Zhang Qiang think that Qiao Xi planned to abolish the scale of the royal family's assets at first, but in the later explanation, Zhang Qiang gradually figured out the meaning of Li Xuanqing and his wife, replacing part of the labor with machines and increasing the use of vehicles in the circulation field, which is undoubtedly more economical in labor costs and can provide efficiency than the current popular tactics of using people in various industrial industries within the empire to build construction and input and output. Therefore, under Zhang Qiang's management, not only the BMW factory started to work in full force after expanding a branch, but the large-scale manufacturing center in Shenzhou also began to study and produce all kinds of machinery and equipment, and then took the lead in the popularization of mechanization within the royal assets, a large number of machinery was produced in the tenth year of the Apocalypse and then put into the major subordinate factories and enterprises of the royal assets, at the same time, the royal assets also carried out the first wave of large-scale layoffs against the market, according to Zhang Qiang's statistics, in the second half of the tenth year of the Apocalypse, The royal family has reduced its staff and laid off more than 20,000 people. And the more than 20,000 people are not ordinary people, basically they are old qualified workers who have been in some positions for many years, and they have basically just stepped out of the factories under the royal assets and have been directly poached by other factories. Thus, the first large-scale transfer of industrial workers within the Tang Empire began.

However, in the future, all levels of the major families and business circles began to gradually notice the deep-seated reasons behind the royal assets, especially in the cabinet that year, a strange order was gradually issued, that is, cities in the northern industrial belt and the Central Plains and other places were required to gradually eliminate horse-drawn carriages and other animal-powered vehicles in the city within five years, and replace them with powered vehicles, and at the same time instructed the Ministry of Communications and the Ministry of Security to jointly form a traffic patrol brigade to be responsible for the jurisdiction of traffic order, so that the traffic system established in accordance with the rules of later generations was introduced. All traffic roads were divided according to the rules of later generations.

The cabinet refined and hierarched this rule in half a year, so that most of the cities of the empire were greatly changed in this six months, and a new system of road travel and laws was quickly established, and the Senate even continued to review this traffic law for half a year. On the National Day of the 10th year of the Apocalypse, after the first batch of urban streets in the country that had perfected the traffic system, the traffic patrol in brand-new uniforms went on duty, and all the people of the empire suddenly understood that they were afraid that a mechanized society had entered the lives of the people with the implementation of these traffic laws.

However, in the past half a year, other major families have gradually understood what Li Xuanqing and the top leaders of the empire want to do, after a large number of Tianzhu prisoners of war entered the Central Plains and other places, so that the people of the empire can be liberated from the complexity, what they need to do is an unprecedented era. With the gradual popularization of industrialization and mechanization, various technical colleges began to be popular in the whole society, and drivers, machine repairs and various mechanical professional certificates entered all walks of life. The public transport system built by various cities, including that of each city, required huge manpower to deal with it, and the entire Tang Empire was thus on the path of rapid development. The BMW factory and the royal family's machine manufacturing group in Shenzhou became the object of the first wave of income, and after the major families reacted, the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain began to flourish, and all kinds of machines were pushed to the market almost every day.

At this time, the subsidy policies jointly formulated by the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Industry and Commerce also began to be implemented in various places, although these policies are aimed at the majority of individuals and ordinary people, but after this wave of promotion, those engaged in farming and individual transportation and other industries have benefited a lot.

"Big brother, this wave of domestic market expansion is only afraid to continue until the end of next year will be basically in place, although our wave of pull in addition to a lot of good results, but the financial pressure brought by this is not small, and a large number of subsidies have also driven up prices to make the people inflation." Qiaoxi said and sighed: "In the final analysis, the internal market is too narrow, otherwise it will be based on the current key scale, where is one thousandth of the scale of agricultural machinery going to the countryside in later generations." ”

"Actually, you didn't calculate it right." Li Xuanqing pulled Qiaoxi to sit down and said with a smile: "Qiaoxi, haven't you noticed that we have a large amount of gold and silver every year?" Although these gold and silver were hoarded in the money bank because of the Tang coins, the money was actually distributed to the people of the empire, so that in fact, the people not only have a large amount of precipitation funds, but also let our total funds gradually exceed the scale of our economy, so I have been trying to find ways to prepare for a rainy day recently. ”

Qiaoxi smiled: "If this is calculated, it is not bad, at least then we don't have to issue a large number of bonds every year to eliminate this pressure." "The Ministry of Finance issues a large number of bonds every year, mainly to collect a large amount of private funds, so that the funds circulating in the private sector maintain an appropriate scale, so as to stabilize prices and prevent inflation caused by the serious over-entry, after all, once the internal market is narrow, once there is a large amount of cash in circulation, it will inevitably bring about a rapid rise in prices, which will have a serious impact on the empire. However, the method of issuing a large number of bonds brought a heavy burden on the imperial finances, and although it brought a huge amount of money to the economic construction, the annual interest made the Ministry of Finance and the money bank frown for it.

"Bonds still have to be issued, after all, the empire now needs to engage in too many large infrastructure projects to be satisfied by the annual budget alone, and we cannot cancel the gold standard at this time and over-issue money like later generations." Li Xuanqing said: "Although the overall amount of machinery subsidies is huge, it will not have much impact on today's empire, but it is slowly raising prices, so that the final people can get benefits." Although Li Xuanqing's words sounded a bit contradictory, Qiaoxi and him were visitors from later generations after all, with more than a thousand years of knowledge and insight, so they naturally understood what their husband was thinking in an instant. Li Xuanqing wanted to use this method to slowly push up prices, on the one hand, to reduce the burden on the finances, and on the other hand, to let the money and wealth flow into the pockets of the people through this method. To put it simply, it is to benefit more people from the empire's overseas trade income through financial returns, although this kind of subsidy is also implemented in the Central Plains and other places for the time being, and the huge northwest region is not within the scope of this subsidy for the time being, but according to the speed of the empire's policy promotion, sooner or later it will enter the northwest and other places.

"In this way, the price of food will also rise, but it is also good that money and wealth will only generate new value if it is constantly circulated." Qiaoxi nodded and smiled: "I'm afraid that this endless supply of grain will also become the most remaining material in the empire." ”

"The downward trend of grain prices is inevitable, and only the decline in grain prices can enable grain processing enterprises to develop." Li Xuanqing said with a smile: "The decline in grain prices is not a bad thing, but it has led to the transfer of the agricultural population to industry. Recently, I'm still thinking about it, there are records in the previous historical books, during the Song and Song dynasties, China had a record of importing improved varieties of rice from Champa to promote it, and now we have won the entire Indochina Peninsula, and this kind of improved varieties can also be found and then tested and promoted by the Ministry of Agriculture to further increase grain production. Li Xuanqing's words made Qiaoxi's brows furrow for a long time before he nodded and said, "Big brother, this is going to use grain to force agricultural reform, right?" It is also said that now our Datang is compared with the Western countries in later generations, agricultural reform is imperative, once mechanization is gradually popularized, our previous agricultural policy needs to be changed, but the people of the empire have never had land for thousands of years, and finally the big brother changed this status quo and gave everyone the opportunity to farm and farm, and rashly canceled the land policy and then reclaimed the land for fear that it would cause huge hidden dangers. Therefore, it is better to use the huge grain production of state farms to force the price of grain to be lowered, so that all the peasants feel that there is no benefit from farming, so that they will be prompted to make changes. At that time, the government took the lead in organizing land reclamation to drive those interested families to carry out large-scale agricultural intensification and mechanized farming in the Central Plains, and only in this way could the agricultural reform be completely completed and industrialization become the primary industry of the empire. ”

"Yes, this is the only way to pull agriculture on the industrial chariot of the empire to the greatest extent. I've always disliked the popularization of chemical fertilizers, but now I'm afraid that I have to popularize them. Li Xuanqing shook his head and sighed: "It's just that I haven't been able to get my mind right in the past few days." ”

"Is there a solution to replace chemical fertilizers?" Qiaoxi frowned and said: "As far as you and I are concerned, the more widespread chemical fertilizers are, the more harmful they are, this is not like other pollution, because only our Datang family implements industrialization, so it can rely on the global ecology to eliminate and resolve." ”

"yes, that's why I'm reluctant to push the wave of industrialization to other places." Li Xuanqing said with a smile: "But now the degree of mechanization is getting higher and higher, but I am afraid that our time is getting more and more urgent, we must seize the time to establish the best ecological environment in the Central Plains, so as to eliminate environmental pollution as much as possible." ”

"Fortunately, the eldest brother and I are from later generations, so we can freely control the degree and popularization of industrialization, and it really depends on the consciousness of industry and the market, but I am afraid that it will be the situation of later generations." Qiaoxi patted his chest and smiled: "Next, we will do the environmental protection of the Central Plains, so that when our policy of blocking the popularization of industrialization hinders the development of Datang, we can take advantage of the trend to cancel this restriction, and when other regions are still in this kind of primary industrialization expansion, we can come to the second industrial revolution and achieve electrification, right?" ”

"That's why I'm reluctant to build a large-scale industrial industry in the northwest, where the environment is so weak that it will be really difficult to recover once it is destroyed." Li Xuanqing shook his head and said, "So that side is only suitable as a source of natural resources for the development of the empire, and is not suitable for establishing a large-scale industrial base." The northwest side will always be in the hands of the Tang Dynasty, bringing a pure land to future generations. ”

Li Xuanqing and Qiaoxi, as a part of the later republic, naturally have an unusual attachment to the land in the northwest, and it is precisely because of this that the two of them invariably turned their attention to the northwest, which is now where the confidence of the two to implement large-scale industrialization in the Central Plains lies. A large amount of money flowed from the silk railway to the Central Plains, which served as the driving force for the development of the empire.
