Upper Forest Garden.

This unfamiliar term had already been quickly ignited in Great Qin, followed by a series of decrees related to Shanglin Yuan.

Someone realized that Shanglin Yuan, which is now Thorn Yang, will usher in the first storm!

Sure enough, before the end of the year, Shangshu Ling Han Kui and Lin Yuyan, the sixth son of the winner, all gathered in Jianyang.

In the palace of Jianyang Mansion, Han Kui has already initially established his own Shangshu Mansion, and his disciples Feng Ci and the former Lin clan's Difu Cheng Luyuan are all guests who have entered the scene.

The first thing Shanglin Yuan did was to determine the margin of Shanglin Yuan, in which the water was a clear boundary, although the wealthy families of Shuyang also occupied the land of Jianyang, but the old clans of Jianyang had spit out their land, how could they dare to keep it.

The main controversy is the eastern boundary of Thorn Yang, that is, the place where it meets the border with Miyang and Wuyin.

When Lin Yuyan knew about this, he waved his hand and pushed the border of Thorn Yang to the left bank of the Tang River.

In this way, the Miyang, which was originally three times larger than the Thorn Yang, was almost equal to the Thorn Yang.

Han Kui admired Lin Yuyan's bold courage, but the always cautious Lu Yuan's new entry into Shangshu Mansion seemed to be submissive, and in the face of Lin Yuyan's more than doubling the land of Jianyang, he also advised him many times, but he didn't expect that when he got Lin Yuyan's documents, he immediately sent the Huyi documents west of the Tang River to Jianyang.

This is not because Miyang Ling is afraid of the momentum of Shanglin Yuan now, but because of the Lin family's pastoral, but Miyang has always been less crowded and more land, and the west of the Tang River is bordering Jianyang, but it is already a secret field of the old clan of Jianyang, and in essence, it is already a field hunting place for the old clan of Jianyang.

It is also the favor of the Yang Decree that has doubled the territory of Shanglin Yuan.

The newly drawn map of Shanglin Yuan is the Lin Pastoral Farm bordering the Tang River in the east, the Lishui River in the west, the Xiaochang'an Ju in the north, and the Lin's pastoral garden at the junction of Shuyang in the south.

Lin clan land.

Lu Yuan clicked on the book and said, "Duke Ling, Your Highness, this year's Thorn Yang has suffered from floods and serious loss of production, and I am afraid that there is not much grain production." ”

Han Kui glanced at the book, calculated silently in his heart, and then smiled bitterly at Lin Yuyan: "Indeed, the acres of Thorn Yang are indeed seriously out of production, I'm afraid that even this winter, the people left behind in Thorn Yang will not be able to survive it!" ”

Hearing this, Lin Yuyan smiled bitterly: "Do you still want to buy grain?!" ”

Han Kui thought for a while, and then said: "Shuyang has a bumper harvest this year, you can requisition some, Your Highness can requisition the wharf of Shuyang, fish and shrimp, open the hunting grounds on the west bank of the Tang River, and carry out mountain hunting!" ”

Lin Yuyan asked, "How long can this be supported?!" ”

Han Kui replied: "You can survive the New Year." ”

Lin Yuyan looked back at his housekeeper Wen Xiangheng and asked, "Wen Qing, how much harvest will I have in my fiefdom this year?!" ”

Wen Xiangheng said: "This year, because it is a late plant in the fiefdom, the grain will be harvested in mid-October, and His Royal Highness is in urgent need of food, so you can leave enough rations in the fiefdom, and the rest will be sent to Jianyang...... Shanglin Yuan for emergency use, can collect more than 1,000 stones. ”

Looking at the look of embarrassment on Lin Yuyan's face, Han Kui also smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, Your Highness, there is still a plan to get thousands of stone of grain!" ”

Lin Yuyan also asked with a smile: "Han Zi said that it is!" ”

"Grab food!" Han Kui spat out these two words.

"Grab food?!"

Lin Yuyan knew that Han Kui would never want to rob the people's food.

Sure enough, Han Kui explained with a smile: "Kui traveled to Fangcheng Mountain in Nanyang, and the locals pointed out a small path, which is a cliff, and the ravine can't even fly over the birds, but it is also laughing here, it is the source of the water in Fangcheng Mountain in Miyang. ”

Lin Yuyan couldn't help frowning and asked, "Han Zi, what is the mystery here?!" ”

Han Kui replied: "The mystery here is that it is close to the border between Zheng Guo and the Han people, and the only way to enter is to fold in from a concave valley in the direction of Miyang. ”

Immediately, Han Kui looked at the people under the seat: "Yingyang is the junction of the Jin Han clan and Zheng Guo, the two countries are handed over here, and there are many bandits, but Yingyang is also an important place for grain production, and it is an important place for the border army of the Jin and Han clans. ”

Hearing this, Lin Yuyan wanted to laugh a little, it is true that Han Kui's plan did attract Lin Yuyan, originally Lin Yuyan wanted to borrow grain from the people and even Wancheng since Lin Yuan did not have enough food, but now that Han Kui said this method, Lin Yuyan's mind of borrowing grain was also abandoned.

Why? Because the borrowed food has to be returned!

Lin Yuyan raised his head and replied with a smile: "It's not that I'm hesitating whether the Shuyang Army can handle this matter, the Hans' grain team must not be the main army, the Shuyang Army has experienced the war anyway, and it is more than enough to wait for this matter, but I'm worried about whether robbing the Hans' food at this time will cause the Koreans to crusade, and Han Zi also knows that Daqin can't afford to fight any battles now!" ”

Hearing this, Han Kui smiled with a relaxed look: "What's so difficult about this?!" Your Royal Highness, since you are pretending to be a bandit, you are naturally pretending to be low, although Fangcheng Mountain is said to be a dangerous terrain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, but in addition to the Wuyin section where the Fangcheng army is stationed, Fangcheng Mountain is only supervised by the local city defenders, since the imperial court has handed over the Miyang Iron Mine to Shanglin Yuan, you might as well leave a real bandit in Fangcheng Mountain, if it can be used by me, it can not only confuse the ears and eyes of the Koreans, but also be able to defend Fangcheng Mountain, killing two birds with one stone, why not?! ”

"Good!" Lin Yuyan agreed: "I really didn't expect Han Zi to be like this......"

Han Kui also replied: "As His Highness said, the enemy of the enemy, my hero!" ’

"Yes, yes, yes...... The enemy is my hero, Han Zi is my hero of Daqin! ”

In the face of such praise, Han Kui just smiled, and then said to Lin Yuyan: "Your Highness, I recommend one person in this matter, who can lead the troops to garrison Fangcheng Mountain, or be the consul for this grain grab." ”

"Who?!" Lin Yuyan asked.

"Xiao Chang'an Judu Lieutenant Ge Bao and Qiang Yuan, when they passed by Xiao Chang'an, they saw Ge Bao good at leading troops and Qiang Yuan good at training, and now Xiao Chang'an Ju is considered to be the North Pass of Shanglin Yuan, don't you go to His Royal Highness to collect Xiao Chang'an Ju over?"

"Okay, I'll send my Zongwei to Xiaochang'an to gather."

The food matter has been completed, and everyone is talking about the matter in Shanglin Yuan, and now the decree of the imperial court is only Feng Han Kui as the Shanglin Yuan Shangshu Order, in charge of the internal affairs of Shanglin Yuan, and Ling Ying's sixth son, Lin Yuyan, is in charge of the military of Shanglin Yuan.

Lin Yuyan's side is okay, after all, there are 500 border army veterans in the Lin clan's land, and there are 2,000 generals of the Nanyang Army under Ju Mao's promise, but Han Kui's Shangshu Mansion is understaffed.

Han Kui combined the strategy of the former minister of the state and the suggestion of Gongzi Yan, and temporarily set up the posts of city order, law and chief bookkeeper under the Shangshu Mansion to be in charge of the internal affairs, criminals, and taxes of Shanglin Yuan.

The city order is still managed by the Luyuan, Han Kui is in charge of the law, and the main book is managed by Feng Ci, a man from Han Kuimen.

The shelves are erected, but below are the little officials who are rarely listening.

Although Lin Yuyan has already seconded his staff member Wen Xiangheng to the Shangshu Mansion, it is a drop in the bucket for the Shangshu Mansion, which is difficult at the beginning.

Han Kui also issued a recruitment order in Wancheng, but because Shangshu Mansion was a newly built mansion, the blood shed by the transformation system had not dried up yet, and under heavy concerns, Shanglin Yuan rarely recruited talents who were truly useful.

There is no way to do this, education in this era is in the hands of a few, and it is difficult for the people to find people who can read and write, let alone others.

Moreover, Shangshu Mansion is the center of Shanglin Garden, and the current Lin clan land is northerly in the entire Shanglin Garden, even if it is the previous Thorn Yang, the location of Thorn Yang Mansion is a bit remote.

It is precisely because the old clan occupies most of the good places in Thorn Yang, as for now that there is no such concern, Han Kui is discussing the location of Shangshu Mansion with Lin Yuyan.

It is to set the location of the original Gou clan to the south, that place is just right, and the surrounding area is flat, suitable for settlement.

After all, once the Shangshu Mansion, which is the center of Shanglin Garden, is completed, the construction of the entire Shanglin Garden will revolve around the Shangshu Mansion.

After the selection was made at the moment, it was necessary to plan the top priorities of Han Kui and Lin Yuyan's respective affairs.

Lin Yuyan's recruitment is easy to do, the Lin clan has 500 border army veterans, and the establishment of Shanglin Yuan is only 3,000, this time the news of Shanglin Yuan's recruitment deliberately spread to the entire hinterland of Nanyang.

And the slightly tricky thing is that Lin Yuyan wants to establish a systematic system of awarding knighthoods for military merits, which will take a lot of effort to figure out slowly.

If Han Kui wants to implement a new household system that is more convenient to manage, he must verify the old household system, which is a big project, because it also involves changing the new household system and dividing the acres of land.

Fortunately, the population of Thorn Yang is not large now, and the old clan has already been preparing to move to the fiefdom one after another because of the double pressure of the imperial court and the Zongfu Jumao, of course, if the old clan wants to move away, it will definitely take away a large number of people affiliated to the old clan.

Han Kui realized that in order to thoroughly implement his new household system, that is, to establish a number of households with "husband (father)" as the core, in addition to formulating a set of systems from the bottom up, it also needed to introduce a large-scale population.

This coincides with what Lin Yuyan thinks about raising an army from land.

So, that night, Han Kui proposed that in addition to the new household system, it was clearly required that whether it was a clan or a commoner, all men must have independent household registration after marriage and must not live with their parents.

Lin Yuyan naturally agrees with this new household system that disintegrates the influence of the old clan family.

Han Kui also exempted the products of the old clans such as clan leaders and clan elders, and chose 100 households to gather and divide the dwellings of a township, and the township set up Lizheng, Sifu, and Youbi, who were in charge of the township's education, litigation disputes, and tax collection affairs, which corresponded to the functions of Shangshufu City Order, Law, and Master Book.
