Chapter 123: Chenhe City is completed

Mentioned before that Cao Cao's father Cao Song and younger brother Cao De were killed by Zhang Min, Cao Cao was angry with Tao Qian, thinking that it was Tao Qian's instructions, and it happened that Cao Cao also expanded his territory, so he raised troops again to recruit Tao Qian.

It was also this summer that Chenhe City was officially completed.

On the day of the opening of the city, tens of thousands of people came.

Yang Xi moved the façade of Chenhe Port into the city, which is planned to be 15 kilometers from north to south and east to west, but the part that has been built at present is only one-tenth.

That is, there are buildings in the middle two kilometers. Other places are yet to be explored.

In the middle is Chenhe Square, and there is a sculpture in the middle of the square, but it is a huge copper scale.

The balance is on a fifty-meter-high cement pillar, and he can be seen on the Yangtze River.

Around Chenhe Square, all are red brick buildings, there are commercial streets, trade streets, food streets and red mansion streets.

On the huge Chenhe Square, there is only one building, and the four big characters "County Citizen Center" are written on it.

The county citizen center has five floors, but the first floor is surrounded by glass, which is the county citizen reception center, on which is a red brick wall, and Yang Xi's office is in it.

This will be the political center of the entire Chenhe district.

The buildings around the square are ten miles to the west, and the railroad tracks run parallel to each other, which was planned by Yang Xi as a rail station, and at this moment the railroad tracks have been paved, and several human-powered rail cars are parked here.

Mao Luan brought 3,000 people to maintain order, but it was still a bit chaotic. Yang Xi led Cai Yong, Pang Degong, Lu Kang and a few other big-name figures to visit the area of Chenhe School City.

The school city is in the south of the city, including Chenhe Primary School, Chenhe Middle School and Chenhe University, all of which are surrounded by walls to prevent people from disrupting public security.

As for the hospital, it is also under construction.

Pang Degong looked at the planning of Chenhe School City and sighed with emotion in his heart.

Lu Kang said: "Now that I have resigned at home, if my family moves into your Chenhe City, I will choose a place outside the school city, and I will be close to the students every day, what does Chenhe think?" ”

Yang Xi's heart moved, and the family moved here, that dare to be kind, the Lu family has several great talents, Lu Xun is now eleven years old, it is the training period, and Lu Xun's father has just passed away, and it happens to be taken by Lu Kang.

Lu Xun is the grandson of Lu Kang's elder brother.

There is also Lu Kang's son named Lu Ji, who is also a talent, and Lu Kang was born at the age of sixty-two, younger than Lu Xun.

As for whether Lu Ji was born to Lu Kang, Yang Xi doesn't care.

Thinking of this, Yang Xi began to advertise again.

"We Chenhe City, welcome anyone to buy property in the city, there will be a planned living area, if Lu Gong comes, as long as he says hello, I will arrange it personally."

Pang Degong was also a little moved, but he thought about it, he still preferred to be quiet.

Yang Xi walked all the way, introducing people to every bit of this place, here is his hard work.

Since the population of Exian County has reached 200,000, Yang Xi began to mobilize to pave the previously widened roads with cement after the construction of the railway and water canals.

He felt that land transportation was going to change somewhat.

It's a pity that rubber hasn't been developed yet, otherwise Yang Xi would have designed rickshaws and pedal tricycles now.

The rickshaw is very simple, and the pedal tricycle is equipped with chains and gears, etc., which is not difficult for Yang Xi.

With the bicycle, it was basically goodbye to the era of horse-drawn carriages and ox carts.

There is a tow bucket behind the tricycle, so there is no need to eat grass and no management, with this, small traders and vendors can save more costs, and will contribute a considerable part of their strength to social change.

The current "Chenhe Ten Daily", the sales of each issue is more than 50,000 copies, although the traffic is a little lagging behind, but the news of the opening of Chenhe City, Jiangxia, Lujiang, Yuzhang and Danyang four counties, is the basic literacy of people, all know.

Yang Xi is waiting for the next frenzy of entry.

The member units of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce alone have now exceeded 3,000. The number of these units moving in is a huge number.

Yang Xi predicted that by the time of the city alone, the number of people who had been registered and lived in the city would reach 30,000.

Chenhe District is developing rapidly, and now it has a population of more than one million and an army of 30,000.

However, this year's Central Plains has a severe drought, and it is a super drought.

The price of grain soared, and the price of one stone of rice rose to 500,000 yuan, especially in Guanzhong, where there was a phenomenon of cannibalism.

What does it mean to have 500,000 yuan and one stone of rice, that is, if you have money, you can't buy rice, and money has become waste.

A large number of hungry people fled to the south, and Jingzhou and Yangzhou received the most hungry people.

By June, millions of people had fled, and countless others had died of starvation. These refugees, in order to eat, some of them were physically strong, recruited by the major warlords, and Yuan Shu took charge of Jiujiang, and the number of soldiers increased to 50,000.

Sun Ce increased to 20,000.

More than 100,000 refugees flowed into Chenhe District, but Yang Xi did not let one enter the army, but all of them were properly resettled.

The refugees were brought back from Donglai Port twice, and the population of Chenhe District has reached 1.2 million, and Exian County is the key target of Yangxi's care, with a population of 350,000.

As for the four counties of Lujiang County, the population has also increased from 150,000 to 200,000.

In July, Emperor Xian ordered Hou Wen to go out of Taicang to store rice as porridge and give alms to the hungry people, but Hou Wen deducted grain and rice, and the starving people died as before.

It's come to this kind of time, and there are still people who embezzle the porridge and rice of the hungry, so why is this society hopeless?

Emperor Xian was suspicious, and personally measured rice in front of the throne to make porridge, so he knew that there was fraud. Liu Ai pursued the servant and punished Hou Wen, and since then, many hungry people have been saved.

To put it to the point, Emperor Xian didn't want to revive the dynasty, but the manpower was sometimes exhausted, and the Han Dynasty was almost over.

The hungry people were temporarily saved, but this year's harvest was irretrievable, and the relief of the imperial court could not be sustained.

So in July, Yang Xi led the Yangtze River fleet, five giant ships, 50 Chenhe boats, and millions of grain stones, and went north along the coast.

The grain output of Chenhe District has far exceeded the imagination of this era.

Because of the improvement of agricultural tools and water conservancy, the number of fertile fields has increased by as much as five times compared to before. In the past, one person could only cultivate 10 acres, but now one person can cultivate 20 acres, not to mention, and the yield per mu has also increased.

Because of the emergence of phosphate fertilizer and potassium fertilizer, the crop yield is more stable.

Yang Xi went to Donglai Port and brought millions of stone of grain, which instantly exploded out of Cai Boqi, Donglai County, next to Donglai County, and Kong Rong of Beihai Country in Shandong.

In the end, it was passed to Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Gongsun Zhan.

So they sent people to borrow food.

One million stones, enough for a million people to eat for a month! If it was just to save people, a million people could eat it for three months. How many rice do you need to drink porridge?

Yang Xi is in Donglai Port, and the ship is parked in Donglai Port.

Yang Xi took the initiative to feast Cai Boqi.

To be honest, the disaster in Dongnae County was not serious, and the population of Dongnae County was originally about 400,000, but now the situation is that the population after the disaster has reached 500,000.

So it's a bit difficult for him to feed so many people at once, and the key is that these people are social instability.

This is the reason why Yang Xi invited Cai Boqi to the banquet.
