Chapter 170: Detective Eight

Turning around, he said to the eunuch, "Zhang Neishi, go to the back and bring me that big map."

"Whoa"

A moment to bring a big map

It is divided into several areas, first the pale yellow Tang territory, just look at this map, the area is very amazing, far beyond the previous dynasties, the south stretched to the later central Vietnam, and there are some islands in the South China Sea in the east that are occupied by the seafarers, and the sulfur islands are rich in sulfur, and they are also encircled by the imperial court

In the northeast, because of the submission of the Tatar people, it has been encircled to the north of the Trans-Khingan Mountains, stretching to the Kamchatka Peninsula, extending to the north shore of the small sea in the north, and the west is surrounded by the Aral Sea because of the submission of the Isabu tribe, and the south is Khorasan, which is only a Tibetan standing on the plateau

But the degree of submission of the various ministries is also different, and the management is not the same, and the Liaodong tribes are close to the Central Plains, but they are not as strong as the control of Khorasan, Jiaozhi is later Xiaoyue, disgusting to death, but now he is very loyal to the imperial court, because of the invasion of the Japanese state, Luo stopped the pace of expansion, and finally stopped the territory at the Datong River, otherwise it has happened in the past few years, so many years, can expel the Tang Dynasty from the Yalu River, but the real core area will shrink by half, The Western Regions is only managed by points and areas, and from Suzhou to the east, it is the area that the imperial court really has control, and the north is almost with the Great Wall as the line, or His Majesty will set up six towns in the future and push north to Yinshan

In this pale yellow area, a lot of dark yellow is painted, especially in the Yangtze River area, and there are some fragmented areas in the country, needless to say, this is the area of cultivated land that may be vacated for the construction of water conservancy in the future, as well as the large ochre area in Lingnan and Liaodong, which is the place for future development, and the ambition of the emperor can be seen slightly

Then there are many places, divided into two pieces, one is the South China Sea Islands, the color has changed to dark green, then to Oceania, the green is slightly lighter, and then to the east, the two continents, all light green, and then the West, Sindh, Makran, Baluchistan and other places, painted red, that is bloody and murderous

Hanging the map, he said: "Let's take a look at the green area, how much arable land can it hold, I have been through various measures before, directly disguised, to encourage you to go to the development of the Central Plains, why do you have to squeeze in the Central Plains, and compete with tens of millions of people for the source of tension in the Central Plains?" Do you have to force me to move all the people away, and you alone will protect the safety of the court? Will? ”

This issue is very important, the security of the two capitals is the top priority, even at the expense of the tight field resources, Li Shimin and Li Zhi, and a large number of people have been migrated to have people, there are government soldiers, and with government soldiers, there is the power to defend the security of the capital

For example, when Xu Jingye rebelled, Wei Siwen said, we fought Luoyang, and there were not many soldiers in the southeast of Luoyang

Later, An Lushan rebelled, but he also saw that Tang Xuanzong was so happy, the government soldiers were corrupted, there were not many soldiers left in the two capitals, and he had a huge army in his hands, so he dared to rebel

Therefore, when Li Wei said earlier about the development of Liaodong and Lingnan, the prime ministers were very unhappy because they were afraid that the population would be dispersed, and the number of people in the important areas of Gyeonggi would be insufficient, and security could not be guaranteed

With this righteousness, all the big families dare not speak, otherwise some will say, you let us go, why don't you let the common people go? I will definitely go, but I am thousands of miles away, the common people are not strong, and the imperial court does not have the strength to send officials across the sea, so there will be more people who will move in the future, and I am afraid that most of them will be restrained by themselves

But the policy has a lot of constraints, so Li Wei changed his tone again and said: "There are already people overseas who are farming, and there will be no worries about the aborigines in more use, and there will be disasters in the near future that the natives are not civilized, so we must not be afraid that once we have been in contact with us for a long time, we will be civilized, familiar with the local terrain, and adapt to the local climate, I am afraid that bad cases will arise, so after discussing with the prime ministers, I may give you some caring policies, for example, the upper households, you can relocate 2,000 residents, go to farming, and the middle households, you can relocate 1,000 people, go to farming, The next household, you can relocate 500 residents, go to cultivate and even provide you with a large number of weapons, for self-defense, but don't abuse them, all the people who move must be remarked, I trained a navy in Dengzhou a few years ago, and I will send people to inspect the islands from time to time, and don't want to bribe officials and soldiers, these patrol officials, I will also keep changing"

Later, just starting from humanity, there are already many people with a bright light in their eyes, and some people have been relocated before, but they are all sneaky, and they don't dare to move much, for fear that the court will notice the anger of this decision, not only is it openly institutionalized, but there are also a lot of so many people, plus the people on the ship, with sufficient weapons, they can arm a powerful army, even if it is the largest country in the South China Sea, several families can work together to overthrow them

Some countries, such as the Terracotta Country, are really rich

Dare to think about this good thing

Indeed, in this way, the contradiction of the land has also been resolved, but the emperor does not allow the annexation, what should I do? had to find another way, and it seems that it is not bad to be an overseas overlord

This premise is that there must be sufficient labor

So Li Wei let it go

This release, but hundreds of thousands of people have been displaced overseas, and even after large-scale development, millions of people can be moved

If he hadn't been a traverser, he would have come to the emperor and would not have issued this edict

Closing the map, he said: "Of course, there are many details, these days, you have all stayed, what ideas, as long as you still have this country in mind, the vast number of people, you can put it forward, we will all work together to improve it"

What else is there to say?

Besides, it is impossible to vacate all the royal gardens and encroach on them

"Talking about money and wealth is ashamed to talk about profit, many people have been admonished in the past, and the criticism of me is also to ask me not to be greedy for profit and unrighteousness, I think, it is because everyone misunderstands the life of the people, to dress, to eat, to live, to do different things, the size of the ability to do is different, the harvest is also different, when you are full, you want to eat well, when you are warm, you want to wear beautiful, if you have a house, you want to live in a big house, this is nothing wrong in itself, I hate not to be able to eat meat, can wear silk, can live in a warm and gorgeous big house, just a gentleman loves money, and takes it in a way to obtain it with diligence and ability. Obtaining morality with morality is the cornerstone of social stability, so I have always said that goodness, that is, morality, it is okay to make money, to have this country, to have morality, is it necessary to be like the indigenous people, everyone lives a life of slash-and-burn together, is it the most perfect? ”

Everyone smiled

Li Wei clapped his hands again, and the two guards carried something covered with cloth, followed by a Byzantine missionary

The thing was carried into the main hall, and it was put down, and the cloth was torn open to make a long pier, and it was placed in a wooden box, and there were small stone slabs, small stone strips, and a kind of mortar, and in some places it was coarse sand, and the crevices were filled with fine sand, and there was fine sand on top of it

Li Wei said: "This is the bishop of Byzantium, Simaru, when he was young, presided over the construction of a road for the Byzantines, in the technical aspects of the road, they were slightly more developed than us, because of the good road, when the Roman army invaded the Franks, he was able to advance the infantry army nearly two hundred miles in one day, and this is the model he brought with him, I was preparing to consult with the ministers, and set aside a thousand tassels, and a million taels a year, and he and the officials of our dynasty who were proficient in water and wood, jointly negotiated to build the various avenues. Access to all states and counties"

If you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and you haven't come out yet

But all of them here are elites, and the roads are developed, and the circulation of goods is accelerated, which is of great help to prosperous commerce, and of course, it is also conducive to rule

It was the imperial court that supported commerce from the hardware aspect

He also said: "The policy on the sea market is not perfect, and the imperial court only has three places, which is inconvenient, so I will gradually set up four more ports from Youzhou, Dengzhou, Mingzhou, and Qinzhou as supplementary rivers and lakes, and after paying taxes in each sea market, I will issue a clear edict that I can go up the river and go straight to the states and counties, simplifying the procedures."

These two policies are money-making

The benefits provided are already very staggering, especially before many people's morals and concepts have not changed, once these edicts are issued, they will arouse a lot of opposition, unless they make concessions, so that the defenders have nothing to say, so that the emperor can smoothly issue the edicts

There was silence, all in contemplation

Li Wei said: "I tell two stories, the first story is that Zou Mugong's Zou Mugong once issued an order, raising ducks and geese to enjoy the play must be deflated grain, not corn, at that time there was no deflated grain in the granary, had to exchange with the people for a stone of deflated grain actually needs two stones of corn to exchange for the official please said, eat geese, originally few flowers, but now seek to eat the people, two stone millet and one stone, the cost is too great, please eat the wild goose Mugong said, go to the non-knowing, the people are ploughing, exposing their backs and working hard, hard work does not dare to be lazy, is it for birds and beasts? You only know the small plan but don't know the big plan, Zhou Yanyun, the bag is leaking, and the contents are in the warehouse, haven't you heard? The king is the father and mother of the people, and he has moved it to the people with barn corn, is this corn not mine? Even if the birds eat the expensive barren grain, it will not harm the corn of our country, but let the people eat the corn in my storehouse, what is the difference between it in the hands of the people? ”

"The second story is that there is a fisherman who sacrificed fish to the king of Chu, saying, there are a lot of fish today, and they can't finish eating, and it's a pity to throw it away, so use it to dedicate it to the king's left and right attendants, and say, this is very vulgar and refers to the leftover food to the king of Chu The king said, I don't know, the fisherman is a benevolent person, I have heard that there is a surplus of grain in the warehouse, there are hungry people in the country, there are resentful wives in the harem, and among the people, there are people who can't marry wives, and the excess property is put in the treasury, and there are poor people in the country, which is the main way to manage the people, so there are fat fish and fat horses in the stables, the people will be hungry All the monarchs of the dead country like to put good things in the warehouse Well, I suddenly thought that Emperor Yang of Sui had stored grain in the eastern capital that could be eaten by the people of the world for sixty years, and the king of Chu said, I have heard this truth for a long time, and I have not been able to do it, and now the fisherman hints at me in this way, I will come to carry out the execution is to send the widow and widow, save loneliness, go out of the warehouse, and the coin is insufficient, and the widower of the harem wife and widower, the people of Chu are therefore happy, and the neighboring countries return to it"

These two little stories came out of a person's mouth, and it was amazing

In a strict sense, it is comparable to Liu Bei's people-oriented, and Li Shimin's taking from the people and using it for the people

Speaking of now, many things have been said, and there are still many ministers who are not convinced, and they are also drafting a draft of advice in their hearts, but when they heard that the emperor actually turned out these two stories and told them in front of everyone, he gradually dispelled his thoughts

"What I have been doing is to hide the wealth from the people, including the various policies just mentioned, but this people, does it refer to all the people in the country, or only to the dozens, or hundreds, so that your hundreds of families will be more powerful than the national power, more talents than the country, and more abundant than the national wealth, you will be satisfied, right?"

Heart-wrenching words

One by one, he bowed down and said with sincere fear: "Your Majesty, the words are serious, the subjects do not have such thoughts"

"Then why is it that the wind of annexation, I have not stopped the benefits of Mizusawa and the ugly competition after several decrees?"

ps: There will be one more later, Teng has been opened, please support it
