Yang Xi was listening to the reports of Luo Lan, Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong at the moment, and couldn't help but nod again and again.

It turned out that after a year, the number of registered county residents in Exian County, including the headquarters of the Chenhe factory and the Chenhe Port, had reached 60,000.

Not counting the troops that Yang Xi returned, the number of regular troops was two thousand people, led by Mao Luan.

Now, basically every household has enough fertile land, and each household has been given a set of farm tools. And all the roads have been widened, and according to Yang Xiding's standards, the narrowest point must be 2.5 meters, so that horse-drawn carriages can run and the two cars can pass smoothly without giving way to each other.

"How's the canal going?"

Gu Yongdao: "In terms of water canals, one-third of the township has been repaired, but due to manpower reasons, the current progress is not fast, and it is estimated that it will take at least a year." As a result of the canals, the number of fertile fields has increased, and now at least 50,000 people can now be redistributed for irrigation. ”

"Good! Next year, by the way, Roland, you call Hu Langzhong in. ”

"Yes!"

After Hu Langzhong came in, Yang Xi asked about some medical reserves, and he was generally satisfied.

"Hu Langzhong, I have given you a very important task today, to include you in their three-person group of Exian County management, and from now on, the management of Exian County will be a four-person group."

Hu Langzhong was excited, this is a large county with tens of thousands of people.

The other three were puzzled, and Yang Xi continued.

"Hu Langzhong is the head of the Exian County Medical Management Department, and the Department of Surgery, Obstetrics and Gynecology Research Laboratory has been established, and this research room must not be known to anyone because it involves human anatomy. Before I leave, I will give you the books on surgery and obstetrics and gynecology, and you should have studied them almost completely, so you will choose fifty excellent and loyal doctors from the First Hospital and enter the research room separately. ”

"In addition, the hundreds of doctors trained this year will be sent to all townships, and each township must establish a township hospital, at least two doctors, to serve the county people."

"You remember, the mortality rate of obstetrics and gynecology is too high nowadays, giving birth to ten children, three children and mothers will die, this is absolutely not allowed, everyone, is our brother and mother, you will establish the obstetrics and gynecology department and train at least a hundred obstetricians and gynecologists within three months, as for the money and goods, just ask Yang Shao to mention, I will greet him. Can it be done? ”

Although there is a lot of pressure in the Hulang Center, after all, there are already hundreds of apprentices here, and it is not a big problem to choose the best ones to cultivate, so he agreed to come down.

Speaking of this, Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong were emotional and knelt down in unison.

"Childe is benevolent and righteous, unprecedented in the ages, please accept my wait!" Zhang Zhao shouted, and Gu Yong couldn't cry anymore.

Yang Xi hurriedly helped the two of them up and said: "The two of you are not allowed to do this, I have already said that in one life, only kneel to parents, teachers, and others, even if they are emperors, they do not deserve to be bowed down for them." ”

Zhang Zhao said: "The son deserves this worship, Zhang Zhao's kneeling should be the last kneel for the son, and from then on, he should remember the teachings of the child, and do his best to popularize the spirit of the child!" ”

Yang Xi shook his head secretly, the scholar at this time is really a tendon.

Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong got up and sat down, and Yang Xi said again: "Luo Lan, you are the county magistrate, you must check the household registration, in a few days it will be the New Year's Pass, from the end of the year, every family, as long as a child is born, will be rewarded, if you give birth to a boy, you will be rewarded with five taels of silver, and if you give birth to a girl, you will be rewarded with ten taels of silver." ”

Roland should be, but he was puzzled, and the other three were also puzzled, whether the son said the opposite.

Faced with the doubts of the three, Yang Xi explained.

"Since ancient times, wars have been nothing more than resource interests, headed by land, but there is also a fundamental reason, because the society is patriarchal, the more men, the fewer women, and when women give birth, the mortality rate is too high, even if it is a peaceful and prosperous era, within 20 years, the number of women is less than one-third of that of men. If you think about it, what these men do, this is a factor of social instability, and it is also an imbalance of social resources. ”

Several people listened and understood what Yang Xi meant, and couldn't help nodding silently.

So before the end of the year, this decree came out of the county government and sent it to all townships and publicized it widely.

As early as the beginning of the year, Yang Xi had already assigned the task of Xinmin's training to the school's vice principal Guantian. Guantian sent senior students to various townships to organize training classes, and almost everyone had already learned Yang Xi's simplified characters, and they could understand it at a glance.

As soon as this decree came out, the whole county was shaken, and all families rushed to tell each other, and some people with undecent thoughts thought that they could make a lot of money by making people at home every day.

Yang Xi plans to wait for more school talents to establish schools in various townships.

It's a pity that there are only six years to go, and the accumulation is not enough.

Yang Xi pondered, Exian farmers do not pay taxes, but businessmen have to pay taxes, all members of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, including the Chenhe factory, have to pay taxes to Exian County, and they will be financially independent in the future.

For any product, no production tax is paid, only transaction tax is paid.

When agricultural products are produced, they have to pay taxes if they want to pass over, and of course they don't need to eat them themselves.

As for the tax rate, Yang Xi has personally calculated the tax rate of each industry in the past few days. The finance of Exian County comes from industry and commerce.

It is conceivable that once these policies of Exian County spread, it will become a small whirlpool, attracting a large number of people around it, and then the whirlpool will slowly become larger, and within a few years, it will not be difficult for the population to reach hundreds of thousands.

As soon as the population increased, agricultural commerce naturally began to develop.

What Yang Xi has to do now is to continue to expand the Chenhe factory, plunder the food resources of the major princes, and develop and consolidate.

On December 28, only two days before the New Year, Yang Xi still had to continue to work, and this time, he wanted to make an appointment to meet Huang Zu.

Huang Zu is about to move, he is not afraid, but the more important reason for him to stabilize Huang Zu is to let Huang Zu free up time and space, and have the strength, like in history, to successfully kill Sun Jian and get rid of this Jiangdong tiger.

As long as Sun Jian is eliminated, Jiangdong Sun Ce is no longer a problem.

Yang Xi invited Huang Jie to a banquet, this person's life style is unreliable, but this is people's freedom, but as a friend, Yang Xi thinks it is interesting enough.

So Huang Jie arranged for Huang Zu to meet, and Yang Xi invited Huang Zu to take a swim on the Yangtze River.

Huang Zhuo accompanied, Huang Zu didn't think about not coming, and he didn't worry about what Yang Xi would do to him.

He knows Yang Xi, and although he does things eccentricly, he is definitely not a villain.

Since the launch of the Tianshan giant ship, the Chenhe factory stopped the production of giant ships, and began to produce the Chenhe series, after all, every giant ship comes out, it needs a thousand guards, and Yang Xi does not want to raise so many soldiers at present.

The style of the Tianshan is different from that of the Yangtze River, although the hull is the same, but the five floors on it are all green.

On the deck there are several tables and parasols propped up in tarpaulins to provide shelter from the wind and rain.

Huang Zu, Huang Jie and Yang Xi sat at a small round table, drinking the juice made by the Chenhe factory.

Yang Xi secretly thought that this was getting closer and closer to the life of the next generation.

Huang Zu didn't have such a mind to enjoy these, he looked at the glass in his hand, saw the Tianshan through the glass, and thought in his heart, this Yang Chenhe is developing like this, I don't know where it will go, why is he so powerless.

Before Yang Xi came out, he was the most eye-catching star in the entire Jiangxia. Later, a Liu Ba came, it is said that Wencai is better than himself, and now there is a Yang Xi, who seems to be stronger than himself in all aspects.

The three of them have known each other for a long time and have met many times, so they sit down like friends.
