At this moment, Shangguan Yi was disappointed, even a little desperate.

"Why hasn't anyone applied for immigration?" Shangguan Yi felt a little incredulous, the situation in his impression should not be like this, and continued to mutter, "Why is this happening?" ”

It has been nearly three years since he sat in the position of Jingyang County Commander, and next year will be the year of his term of office.

The law stipulates that it is a five-year term, but there is another exception, that of an official who takes office during a non-term of office.

No matter when such officials take office, when they reach the next year of their term, they must go with the army.

And for a longer time, like Shangguanyi, when he was in office, he just made a three-year county order, although the qualifications are not enough, but the victory is enough to get his hands on the political achievements, so the probability of getting promoted is still very large.

On the other hand, for example, officials who have only been sitting for one or two years have a high probability that they will continue to sit for another period at this time, and they may also be transferred to other yamen.

Although everyone is an official, there are also three, six, nine and other officials, even if they are officials of the same level, even if there is no difference between them on the surface, but in fact, as long as they are individuals, they will be divided into three, six, nine and so on.

Among this group of people, Shangguan Yi obviously belongs to the upper level.

If you don't have the goods in your head, how can you bring a half-dead Jingyang to this point? Of all the counties under the rule of the state capitals of Datang, Jingyang ranks third.

The first is Wannian County, and the second is Chang'an County.

These three counties are known as the three carriages of the Tang Dynasty, and the three counties have their own characteristics.

Wannian County and Chang'an County are backed by the big tree of the imperial court, and if nothing else, they will send some people with about three years of experience in the official journey to take charge, and the result will not be bad.

The natives of the capital will always be richer than the natives in remote areas, and even if they encounter the same thing and make the same choice, their fate will be different.

"Why should the Ming Mansion be like this? If no one responds, doesn't it mean that under the rule of the Ming government, the country and the people are safe, and the people can live well without going out to seek a livelihood? This is the merit of the Ming Mansion. "Master Liu Hu is a little confused.

The imperial court's review conditions for the county order are clearly listed, and among all these marked conditions, Shangguanyi has done a very good job.

In the more than two years under his rule, the population of Jingyang County has increased by more than 80,000 people, including more than 50,000 new people and nearly 30,000 new people, of which more than 4,000 belong to the new population of the new population.

With the new additions, plus the previous ones, the population of Jingyang County has now exceeded the 300,000 mark.

The thriving business atmosphere and the policy environment that have changed have made it possible for a narrow township to feed so many people.

Grain? They can go and buy it, and now that the price of food has fallen so hard, they can just set up a stall and work for half a day to earn enough food for the family for a day, and the rest of the day is all earned.

Population, economy, and exchanges and cooperation with Youxian can be regarded as political means, plus the private evaluation of a supervisor, the results are all favorable to Shangguanyi.

The results are here, Liu Hu can't think of any reason to confuse Shangguanyi.

"Yes, too! Definitely! Shangguan Yi shook his head and sighed deeply.

Liu Hu was stunned, how can he say this? You're right, but you're not right? So is that right? Or is it not right?

has been partnering with Shangguanyi for more than a year, and Liu Hu can be said to have an absolute understanding of Shangguanyi, but at this moment, he is also a little confused, and he doesn't know how to interpret this meaning.

"The people and future generations look at the surface, on the surface we are really good, in fact we are doing well, but don't forget, we are people living in the present, the surface and the inside, for us, are equally important." Shangguan Yi explained that he was still quite satisfied with Liu Hu, and that he was a junior recruited from the academy.

To be precise, Liu Hu also has an identity, the chief of Jingyang County, who passed the scientific examination and was assigned to Jingyang as the chief Bo, Shangguan Yi is very optimistic about him, and the examiners of the Ministry of Officials also appreciate him, so there is this result.

Last year, he was privately hired by Shangguan Yi as a master, although he did not have a real name, and he did not have a good fortune, and he still received the main Bo's Yu Lu, but he was exercising the dual power of the main Bo and the master, and his performance was also very optimistic about Shangguan Yi.

Moreover, Shangguan Yi also heard that the Ministry of Officials had listed Liu Hu as the key observation object of their Shenyuan three-year imperial examination candidates.

There are many people on this list, and those who enter may not have a good future, but those who can't get in will definitely not have a good future.

As long as this probationary period can be passed, the next career will be smooth sailing, until he has problems with himself, or his ability cannot meet the requirements, he will not stop, or even for life.

If it were someone else, Shangguan Yi might not have said so much, who let both of them come from Zhenbei Academy, and Liu Hu is still a junior brother who is two years lower than himself?

"Although no one has responded to the call, it means that the people under the rule are very satisfied with the status quo, but from another perspective, does this also mean that the government, or even His Majesty's influence in Jingyang, has declined? Today is a call for immigration, no one can respond, it doesn't matter, there are no people in Jingyang, there are people in other places, and there will be no problems with the whole plan.

But over time, what if Datang's situation is not as good as it is now? If Datang needs young adults to go to the battlefield, and His Majesty issues a conscription order, but no one responds, what does that mean?

As a county magistrate, being able to bring Jingyang to this point is already a success and impeccable.

But as an aspiring young man, if there is a situation like this, it is a great failure, and even just this seemingly trivial thing may affect a person's ceiling. Shangguan Yi continued.

Shangguanyi's literary level is very good, and in history he was a famous imperial literati in the early Tang Dynasty, and often drafted edicts for the emperor.

But the level of literature did not affect Shangguanyi's ability to govern, or rather, it was Zhenbei Academy that changed him, and over the years, Shangguanyi had gradually put down literature and turned to specialize in governance.

He can see the difference between the two, literature, to put it bluntly, is the heritage, the inheritance and development of culture, but governance is a practice that is of great help to the present and future generations.

Literature can only leave people with beautiful fantasies and longings, but it cannot bring the glory of the past.

And the previous experience has made Shangguan Yi develop a habit, when encountering problems, he likes to look at this problem from the perspective of a bystander first, and then look at the problem from his current position.

The comparison of two different angles is obvious.

How terrifying is it that no one responded to the emperor's recruitment order?

Concrete? You can imagine what will happen in the afterlife, when it is time to conscript, but no one comes to enlist?

In fact, this problem arose when Li Yuanji crossed over, and it cannot be said that no one responded to the call, but in some big cities and economically developed areas, the difficulty of conscription was very great, and it could even be basically described as no one responding.

Compared with the past, this is really the case, so recruitment can only be carried out in some remote areas and economically underdeveloped areas, but in this way, it will affect the development and construction of the entire army.

The modern army requires a high degree of education, and it is no longer the era of a few decades ago when you could be a good soldier even if you could not read a single person.

The situation now is actually similar to that time, the economy is good, and there is money in hand, who will choose to immigrate? Go to that unknown place? Living an unknown life far from your homeland?

Although the conditions are very rich, they are still reluctant to leave, because they can still live here and eat enough, which is enough.

An ordinary immigration recruitment order has exposed such a serious problem in many areas of Datang.

Now that this is the case, if in the future, Jingyang's economic development is better, the people have more money in their hands, and the military salary offered by the army can no longer tempt them, will there be no way to recruit a soldier who takes the initiative to enlist in Jingyang?

Could it be the same in other regions?

Industrialization, commercialization, and a series of reforms have brought all kinds of new life to Datang, but also brought various problems.

And the source of the problem comes from the conscription system.

This kind of system is very good, it can greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the army, and can avoid the casualties of soldiers on the battlefield as much as possible, but in the same way, the biggest advantage of the recruitment system is free choice, which is precisely its shortcoming, and now they still have a thirst for money, and there are many people who choose to be soldiers, when their thirst for money disappears? Will anyone else choose to do that?

It's a problem, a very serious, serious problem.

This is not only Shangguanyi's own problem, but also the imperial court and the emperor's problem.

Everyone ignores this aspect that they don't care about, and it is precisely this aspect that no one cares about that gives them such a huge problem.

But fortunately, this problem has now been discovered, in peacetime, in the early days of the Tang Dynasty, not in the period of decline of the Tang Dynasty, when the people were required to enlist in the army to fight.

For two days in a row, Shangguan Yi did almost nothing, and his mind was full of this problem.

In the past two days, he has also received some good news, there are 14 families who have come to sign up for immigration, three of which are less than 8 households, the remaining 11 households are all more than 10 people, and 14 families, a total of more than 180 people.

It is a good thing to have a response, but Shangguanyi is still not happy, because it is not the natives of Jingyang who respond to the call, but the fourteen families, all of whom have migrated from other places, and their lives here are not satisfactory, they have no land, and they can't find a job, so they can only find another way out.
