Wu used Yanqing to do things safely, and waited for the news that they sent back to Chang'an before making a decision.

Liu Bowen sent a fast horse to deliver a letter in his eldest son, in addition to congratulating Liu Mang, he also expressed the same concern as his eldest grandson Wuji.

If Chang'an is chaotic, the world will be chaotic. And the situation in Hedong is the most complicated, and there will be chaos!

It is necessary to speed up the resolution of the Hedong issue.

Master Hedong and completely open the Central Plains Passage in order to get the first opportunity in the chaos!

Liu Mang decided to rush to Hedong immediately, personally sit in the town, and try the Central Plains.

Before leaving Jinyang, there are still a few things to deal with.

In the family, a new lady was added, but Liu Mang had no time to fulfill his father's pampering responsibility.

Now that he has the eldest grandson Wujian, a virtuous fiancée, there is no need to worry about housework.

In terms of military and political affairs, there are many things that need to be explained clearly.

……

Ironore.

Qi Wuhuaiwen is worthy of being a master of smelting, and in less than a year, the people have begun to officially smelt iron.

Although the production is not high, it has steadily increased. And the quality is the best in the world!

The first batch of pig iron, except for a small amount left for personal use, was all transported to Jingzhou by Qiao Zhiyong's caravan for sale.

Although the goods are still on the way, from Qiao Zhiyong's business vision, the prospect of the pig iron business is infinitely bright!

……

Coal and other mining.

Qixian Qiao's took the lead, and Yuci's Wen followed, driving other families to invest in mining.

However, the mining industry requires too much labor, and the state's labor force cannot meet the demand for the time being. At present, Li Hongzhang has only opened two coal mines.

These coal mines were carefully selected by Song Yingxing. The quality of the coal is good and it is easy to mine.

The only thing limiting massive mining is the use of coal, which needs to be rolled out slowly.

This matter is in a hurry.

However, last winter, the garrisons in Yanmen and Jingcheng tried coal on a small scale to replace wood for heating, and the effect was extremely significant. The incidence of diseases such as chilblains caused by dampness and cold has dropped dramatically compared to before.

The response in the army was good. If you promote it slowly, it will be welcomed by the people.

……

Official, horse, and herdsman.

Cao Lukuo, the translator of Yanmen Commerce, is effective. A large number of Hu people were called to Yanmen to adopt grazing horses.

Lu Kuo's enthusiasm is too high. There were so many Hu people recruited that there weren't enough horses to graze.

Li Hongzhang expanded his thinking, if there are not enough horses, then graze cattle and sheep first.

In the area of Yanmen, there is no need to wind the grass to be low. You can also see the eyes full of cattle and sheep, full of life!

Lu Kuo's recruitment task was completed, and Li Hongzhang arranged another task for him - teaching!

Li Hongzhang opened an alternative school in Mayi, not teaching the Four Books and Five Classics, but teaching "nonsense"! And the teacher, naturally, is none other than Lu Kuo.

The teacher is the father!

Being a teacher is very face-saving. The eight generations of ancestors in Lu Kuo's family probably never thought that their family would have a teacher!

……

Agriculture, livestock and fishery.

Represented by Zhao Yuze.

Under Kou Zhun's comprehensive management, the Zhaoyuze fishery is thriving day by day. The people who make a living from fishing no longer go out of their way to fish. Slowly taste the sweetness of the lasting development brought by "raising and fishing".

The fishermen of Zhaoyuze gradually narrowed the income gap between them and the farmers.

The policy of prohibiting large-scale land annexation has limited the intensive development of agriculture to a certain extent. But the cultivator has his land, and the farmer keeps the land, which is more stable.

Coupled with the implementation of the policy of encouraging land reclamation, although the large landowners of the family were unable to annex the existing land, they were given a large number of opportunities to reclaim the wasteland. In Taiyuan, the area of cultivated land has increased by a large margin, and this autumn, it will bear fruit. Taiyuan. Positive development towards the big granary of the state!

With the strong support and promotion of Kou Zhun, Zhao Yuze's pig industry is also thriving.

Zhang Jun and Zhang Xiaoxian, who were able to become officials because of a "Treatise on Pigs", are grateful to the government and Liu Mang! This honest petty official from a peasant family. Dedicate all my gratitude to Liu Mang and Kou Zhun to the pig!

Zhaoyuze's pig industry has developed unprecedentedly, and the local garrison even spread an interesting story of "smelling pigs and dancing".

……

Commercial trade.

No prince has ever attached such importance to commerce and trade as Liu Mang.

Driven by Qiao's and Yuciwen's in Qixian County, Bingzhou's commerce and trade are booming.

Liu Mang does not reject normal commercial and cultural exchanges with the northern nomads. From the perspective of managing commerce. Li Hongzhang is far stronger than Fan Zhongyan's ability. The Hu market in the Yanmen area is better than the original Zhuolu Hu City.

The Shangdang and Yanmen and Taiyuan were integrated under the same rule, and the Taihang Eight Provinces were all opened. The caravans of Bingzhou passed through the valley roads of Taihang Mountain, and transported goods in and out in an endless stream.

Some families, after obtaining the consent of the government, took advantage of various special relationships to do business with Xihe County, which was controlled by Gao Shun, and Sili Hanoi County, which was controlled by Zhang Miao.

Even the trade between Jizhou, which had been interrupted by the war, was gradually restored.

……

Under Liu Mang's rule, the three counties of the prefecture were merged, although the population could not be compared with the large prefectures and counties of the Central Plains. However, the rapid development momentum has gradually attracted more attention.

Not only the princes are concerned, but the people are also taking the three counties of the state as a paradise to yearn for.

In the past, the people of Bingzhou, who were disturbed by the Xiongnu and left their hometowns, began to return to their homes one after another. The surrounding homeless people also gradually poured into the state.

Even, the government also received the temptation of small families in some surrounding areas to apply for moving to the state!

People are the same.

All are welcome!

In the past 100 years, the population of Bingzhou has been declining year by year. Now, the population of Bingzhou has stopped falling and rebounded, and there is growth!

With the support of Liu Mang, Li Shizhen founded the state-run pharmacy, and the people were able to see a doctor and get medicine at a lower price.

Li Shizhen's magic doctor saved the lives of many patients with incurable diseases.

The mortality rate in Bingzhou, especially in Taiyuan County, has dropped significantly, and the survival rate of newborn babies has skyrocketed!

……

Family prosperity, industry prosperity, people prosperity, everything prosperity.

Liu Mang was happy.

He's going to give a gift to his subordinates!

He was promoted to a knighthood, became a state assassin, and his subordinates who followed him to fight should also be commended.

In order to surprise his subordinates, Liu Mang personally drafted an order.

Appoint:

On the civilian side.

Liu Bowen and Li Yan, the staff of the Assassin's Mansion, although they do not hold substantive positions, they are important arms of the Assassin's History.

Liu Bowen is the main strategic planner, and Li Yan is the propaganda minister in Liu Mang's mind.

The eldest grandson Wuji, for the governor of the history, is also known as the other driver, and the assassin is an adjutant.

Li Hongzhang is too guarded for Yanmen.

Fan Zhongyan is Taiyuan Taishou.

Dong Zhao, respect his own opinions, temporarily acting as the party's too guard.

Kou Zhun stepped down as the post governor in southern Taiyuan, and was promoted and appointed.

Zhang Wanzhong insisted on not giving any official position, and only wanted to be a servant of the "divine bird" for the rest of his life. He was rewarded with a large amount of silver money, and he gladly accepted it and dedicated it all to the sacred bird.

Under the leadership of Li Yan, the lover of the Red Lady, Wang Li, and the owner of the music workshop in the state, used a variety of literary and artistic forms to educate the people and publicize the new policy.

Qiao Ji, who works in the music workshop, devotes himself to the opera career and lives in the world of opera, which is his life wish.

Those who have been selected to become officials in the government are also appointed to the positions of county secretary, county commander, and county secretary according to their respective performances.

In addition, some young talents were selected from other families that responded to the call of the state government and sent to various places as officials.

The rest of the people have not been promoted, but they have also received material rewards for their outstanding performance.

Time has changed, and I can't wait for this moment, but Liu Mang has made a vow that one day, he will be crowned in the name of a martyr!

It is worth mentioning Qiao Zhiyong.

Qiao's ancestors are not allowed to be officials. Liu Mang respects Qiao Zhiyong's opinion.

In order to repay Qiao Zhiyong, the above official Wan'er handwritten and stamped with the seal of Liu Mang, the assassin of the state. Make a plaque and give it to Qiao Zhiyong, with four big characters on the book - Xinyi Qiao's!

After everything is handled, Liu Mang is about to set off.

Hedong, I'm coming!
