It is really merciful to raise tens of thousands of people to eat idle meals, but it is a bit silly, Tang Xidong is not a good person with a compassionate mind, so if you raise people, you have to reap the rewards.

Tens of thousands of people can do a lot.

For example, to build a new city, for example, to reclaim a large area of wasteland, for example, to expand the scale of the industry at hand, for example, to recruit a strong drill army.

At the end of June, after the camp was expanded to 50,000 people, the pressure on Tang Xidong suddenly became a mountain and pressed on him.

Therefore, he had to re-plan for the survival of nearly 100,000 people in Binh Duong City plus the homeless camp.

Open source and reduce expenditure.

The first thing is to find something that can do for all these people, and the second is to find a lot of food.

10,000 people were allocated to Deng Dahu and these people were organized to continue to reclaim wasteland and build greenhouses along the banks of the Fen River.

20,000 people were allocated to join the construction of the new city.

5,000 people were also recruited and trained into an army.

After all the dignitaries and nobles in Pingyang City died under the knife of Luoliang Mountain, naturally the property of each family was also Tangxidong, and those minerals, porcelain kilns, coal kilns, brick factories, weaving workshops, and ironware shops could not be wasted.

The increase in the number of displaced people is just the right time for Tang Xidong to re-operate together.

At the same time, the industries on Luoliang Mountain should also be expanded, especially the cement plant.

The extraction of raw materials and the calcination of cement require manpower.

So in the dispatch one by one, Tang Xidong finally found a job for all the existing displaced people.

At the end of June, the summer grain was harvested, which was a rare harvest in the four years of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty.

Under the management of 20,000 acres of fertile land in Luoliang Mountain and 20,000 acres of fertile land in Fenhe, the yield per mu ranged from 500 to 600 under the management of Tangxidong, which spent a lot of manpower and material resources.

Since ancient millennia, the boundaries of China are rich in wheat and rice, but the so-called abundant yield is only hovering around 400 catties per mu, once there are natural disasters and man-made disasters, the yield per mu is even lower and scary.

After Tang Xidong came to Daming, he cultivated wheat like a child, and his hard work paid off, and finally broke through the maximum yield per mu that has been maintained in history.

The yield per mu ranges from five to six hundred, which means that the yield per mu is more than three stones.

After the entire summer grain harvest, the food crisis borne by Tang Xidong was finally greatly alleviated, and the grain in the warehouse was piled up all of a sudden.

More than 20 million catties of grain are enough to feed nearly 100,000 people at hand, and they will not be hungry for half a year.

Every day, a large amount of grain is brought back, and people who are busy with construction all over the country look at the truckloads of grain, and finally stabilize their mood and enter their roles more steadily.

The new city has been halfway built, with neat small buildings, gridded streets, and cement roads.

A brand-new Binh Duong New City is about to stand on the land of Daming.

After the completion of the small building, which was enough for 50,000 people, Tang Xidong began to gradually move his own management team and leadership system into the new city.

At the same time, in addition to industry, the rest of the population and core craftsman workshops and gunpowder pharmacies in Luoliang Mountain were also moved into the new city.

After the management system was moved into the administrative district, the caravans under its command were also settled in the commercial area as office space.

After that, it is the family of the soldiers of the new army, priority allocation of housing, of course, the prerequisite is to sign a housing lease agreement, the first regiment of Pingyang belongs to the elite under Tang Xidong, the new army soldiers are paid 2,200 catties of grain, as a condition for entering the new house in the new city, after signing the agreement, the food and salary will be deducted five yuan as a housing deposit.

In addition to the Luoliangshan Company and the Pingyang First Regiment, the other 10,000 new troops will not be given priority for the time being, and then in the later exercises, those who perform well will be given to their families as rewards to be stationed in Xincheng.

At the same time, Tang Xidong has also made adjustments to the original residents of Binh Duong City.

The first is the work treatment, the previous days of work are counted, and the monthly salary is one tael per month to compensate, and the rent of the new house is converted into a mortgage for the lease of the new house.

In other words, you can live in a new house first, but use the previously converted salary as collateral.

Tang Xidong's plan is to let everyone taste the sweetness first, and then introduce the concept of market economy step by step.

If you want housing, then pay for it.

The construction of the new city is still in progress, and Tang Xidong is not in a hurry to move everyone in, so he is not in a hurry about the small number of residents who have settled in at the beginning.

As long as he firmly controls the officers and men of the New Army under his command, Tang Xidong can ensure that he has a foothold in this Pingyang Mansion.

The newly reclaimed fertile land in the Fenhe River is also nearly 10,000 acres.

Throughout June, everything in Tang Xidong's business has been advancing rapidly and undergoing earth-shaking changes.

The most important thing is that after a long wait, the officers and men of the Luoliangshan Company and the 1st Pingyang Regiment finally began to be equipped with a new weapon, the flintlock pistol.

Although there were only 4,000, the two teams were evenly divided.

But it still greatly strengthened the armed forces in Tang Xidong's hands.

The new flintlock pistol has high shooting accuracy, long range, fast excitation speed, simple ignition method, high ignition efficiency, and fixed ammunition.

The disadvantage is that the flint of the gun body needs to be changed from time to time.

After the number of homeless camps increased to 60,000, the rate of increase in the number of homeless people suddenly dropped significantly, and the Daming Jinyiwei and Dongchang spies sent intelligence personnel to monitor and investigate by Tangxidong also suddenly began to evacuate Pingyang City.

The sudden situation made Tang Xidong very uncomfortable.

As soon as Da Ming's spy left, Tang Xidong felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart.

However, at this time, when the intelligence network has not yet covered the outside of Pingyang Mansion, Tang Xidong has no way to gain insight into the attitude and actions of the Ming court.

At present, it is still necessary to improve the intelligence network in Binh Duong Province as soon as possible.

Time passed, and in mid-July, Binh Duong New Town was finally completed.

Except for the walls and moats, which have not yet been built, the houses in the city have been fully built.

Tang Xidong began to migrate the original residents of Pingyang City and the population of the homeless camp into Pingyang City on a large scale.

The premise, of course, is to obtain the consent of these people.

The number of people willing to settle in the new city reached 80,000.

These include the remaining 20,000 people in Binh Duong City after the families of the new army were stationed last time, as well as a full number of homeless camps.

After nearly 100,000 people settled in Binh Duong New Town.

Tang Xidong began to implement a long-planned policy.

First, it is necessary to set up political and administrative organs.

The ground floor is the first group, and the upper part is the Supervision Bureau, the Public Security Bureau, the Finance Bureau, the Welfare Bureau, the Engineering Bureau, the Labor Bureau, the Statistics Bureau, the Propaganda Bureau, the Agriculture Bureau, the Industrial Bureau, and the Taxation Bureau.

Second, fiscal reform.

All laborers shall be paid according to their salaries, and all food and housing shall be exchanged for silver taels. If the silver is insufficient, it can be temporarily owed on credit and compensated by work.

For the orphans, widows, the elderly, the weak and children, all the welfare bureau will distribute relief to ensure the supply of food and clothing, and set up orphanages and orphanages for unified management.

Third, the school should be officially opened.

All children between the ages of seven and under the age of fifteen must be compulsorily enrolled, and schools are under militarized closure.

Fourth, encourage business

People who have the principal and channels can lease commercial streets and do business, but they are not allowed to set up stalls on the streets.
