Chapter 29 Cheng Yue's First Five-Year Plan

Li Fu saw that Xie Fangde also agreed, and said after a little groaning: "I am willing to govern Jiankang." ”

Xie Fang's eyes widened, and he said, "Okay, you Li Fu, do you think I'm not as good as you?" ”

Cheng Yue was overjoyed and said: "Lord Xie is too worried, what is Changzhou, in the future, we will defeat Dadu, you can fight again." ”

Everyone laughed, and now the room was full of their own people.

Cheng Yue said: "Okay, since I have your help, then I have to say the third thing." The third thing is to plan for the implementation of my first five-year plan. ”

"Five-year plan?" Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what Cheng Yue wanted to say.

Cheng Yuedao looked at everyone's confused expressions and explained: "That's right, it's what we're going to do in the first five years." Our territory is too small, but there are many troops, and the task of fighting is also very heavy, and if we do not pay attention to economic development, these armies can also drag us down. Didn't I just say that? We must have a plan, what goals we want to achieve, and how we want to do it, and then divide the tasks and work hard to accomplish them. It should be reviewed every year, and after five years, it should be reviewed and then the next five-year plan should be formulated. ”

Many of you here have been officials for many years and have a good reputation, but they have never heard of such a governance method, and at first glance they can't help but be a little at a loss.

Yang Ting's eyes lit up. While everyone was still thinking about it, he was the first to stand up and say, "Childe's idea is really genius." In this way, there will be no more peace officials in various places, everyone knows what goals to be achieved, all localities can cooperate with each other, and the evaluation of officials will be simpler. ”

Cheng Yue stretched out a thumbs up to him and said, "Yes, that's it." We have set a big five-year plan here, and each locality should draw up its own five-year plan in order to accomplish these tasks. ”

Cheng Yue's explanation made everyone understand a lot. Yin Yu asked, "I don't know what the son is going to do?" ”

Cheng Yue said: "It's not what I'm going to do, it's what we're going to do." First of all, I have some very good crop seeds, high yields, little land requirements, plus I have some of the latest crop cultivation methods, and in three years, at this point, we can increase our grain income by this amount. Cheng Yue smiled and stretched out four fingers.

"Forty percent?" Everyone couldn't help but smile. If so, it will be a good harvest. During the Song Dynasty, Champong rice was popularized, and everyone was very interested in high-yielding crops.

"It's not forty percent, it's four times!"

"What?! Fourfold! It's impossible! And all the people exclaimed.

Cheng Yue smiled and said: "Master Li, you have been in charge of the place for a long time, do you know how much is the yield of one mu of Zhancheng rice?" ”

Li Fu said: "Two crops a year, one acre can reach about three stones." ”

Cheng Yue said: "That's it, the crop I gave you is called sweet potato, which is twice a year, and the yield per mu can reach more than forty stones!" There is also a kind called Ma Ling potato, and the yield per mu is also more than 15 stones. There is also a thing called corn, which is not so much, and can also have three or four stones, but it can be sold at a high price, it is delicious, and it can also be made into popcorn. By the way, rice is also available. This is another way to make a fortune. "Popcorn has appeared in the Song Dynasty, but it's not corn.

Everyone was stunned. What kind of concept is this, if it can be promoted, are there still hungry people in this world?

Xie Fang's mouth trembled, and he finally cried and said, "Childe, is this true?" ”

Cheng Yue said: "Did I lie to you? I don't have many seeds, though. I'll let you see it this year, and it will be promoted in large quantities next year. When the time comes, not only will we not have to worry about military rations, but we will also be able to sell food to the outside world. I'll still cook these kinds of dishes, and we'll open a lot of restaurants, how much do you think you can earn? ”

When everyone heard that Cheng Yue knew how to cook, except for Zhang Guituo and others, their faces were a little strange. In these years, only when the family is very poor, the man can cook with his own hands.

Cheng Yue didn't care about this, and said: "I want to set up an agricultural department, and it has to take care of this matter." Lord Yin, how are you coming? ”

"Okay." Yin Yu thought that he could solve the problem of food in his own hands, and he couldn't help but be fascinated, you know, this can be completely recorded in history. What are the readers for? Of course, I want to leave a reputation. As soon as he heard that Cheng Yue was going to be a general, he immediately agreed.

"Another thing that Lord Yin has is to find some scholars who have done farm work, and I have some agricultural skills to teach them, and then they will pass them on to the farmers. Everyone in the Department of Agriculture, including Master Yin, has to come to learn, and it is impossible to do it without knowing how to do farming. ”

"Yes, I'll do it as soon as possible." Yin Yu couldn't help but admire Cheng Yue. He has always looked down on those who can only be officials but do not understand practice, Cheng Yue is so pragmatic that he finally feels that he has a place to use.

Cheng Yue said to Li Fu: "Lord Li, it's still early to build health. I had something I wanted you to do. ”

Li Fu said: "Please ask the son to command." ”

Cheng Yue was not polite, and said: "It is to build roads and build houses and docks." I will make cement and red bricks. Master Li will send someone to study with me, and the relevant factories will also be built to keep secrets. After all these are done, it is easy to build a high-rise building of more than ten feet. What's more, the house will not be burned down, and it will be warmer and stronger. On the other hand, I will also make a lot of glass, which will not only open up financial resources, but also make housing more comfortable, and I can also build greenhouses in the north for agriculture. Also, I want to make steel, the best steel. Steel is the key to military success. You don't have to worry about this, but you have to be responsible for transporting the raw materials in. I'll take matters into account myself. ”

Li Fu said: "What is the name of this department?" ”

Cheng Yue said: "Industry Division, this is it for the time being." I know that you are famous for your talents, but there are too many things in charge of this division, and there will be more in the future, and when the time comes, a new division will be set up to share it, and for the time being, Lord Li will be fully responsible. ”

Li Fu hugged his fists and said: "Yes." ”

Cheng Yue said to Xie Fangde again: "Master Xie, you have to take care of the affairs of Changzhou, and I have one more thing to hand over to you." ”

Xie Fangde also said solemnly: "Please speak." ”

Cheng Yue said: "It is the Department of Health, in charge of medicine." I want Master Xie to gather a large number of people who want to study medicine and doctors with good skills, and I will teach them all the knowledge and medical methods. But let them know that what I'm going to teach them is a different system of medicine than what they've learned before, almost completely different. Compared to TCM, the treatment effect is more direct. Also, I want to be in charge of the sanitation of each place. Garbage and feces must not be littered, they must be disposed of centrally, and some can be composted as much as possible. You can't defecate in the open, litter, spit at will be fined, clean and comfortable public toilets should be built everywhere, I will draw some drawings and send them back to adults. This is not only a matter of hygiene, but also a major event to eliminate diseases and benefit future generations. Please. Cheng Yue gave Xie Fang a look.

Xie Fang was taken aback. Originally, he thought that his work was the most inconspicuous, but Cheng Yue did not salute the two people in front of him, but saluted him, and he knew that Cheng Yue actually attached more importance to his work. After thinking about it again, I finally understood the difficulty of this matter. This is the work of offending people, and his reputation is certainly more conditional than others in this regard. I didn't hesitate at the moment, and immediately agreed.

Cheng Yue said to Yang Ting: "If you want to say that you have the most work, the first one is that you have to be my assistant, I am afraid that I will handle the most things, and there are also a lot of secrets, these must be handed over to you." Then there's the fact that you have to manage intelligence. I will set up a special agency to be responsible for the collection, collation and analysis of intelligence, this matter is very complicated and difficult, Zhang Gui was in charge before, but he wants to fight with me, only you can. Ask me for whatever you need. I will put together the official text of the five-year plan and send it to you. ”

Yang Ting didn't know that this was the greatest trust in himself, so he hurriedly got up and took a deep look and didn't say anything.

Cheng Yue instructed these things, and then asked Zhang Guituo: "What news is there from all over the place?" ”

Zhang Gui hurriedly got up and said: "The officials from all over the country are very cooperative, only a few who are unwilling to serve the prince have returned to Lin'an, and I have sent someone to make up for it." There was no movement in Lin'an, and all the money and food in various places had been intercepted by us, and we didn't say anything. After all, there is still a war going on, and they seek peace and will not be difficult for us for the time being. It's hard to say later. Most of the people in the city department have been killed, and now they can collect a large amount of tax silver, all of which are used to build ships, Li Shixiu has recruited a large number of shipwrights to start building ships according to the drawings given by adults, shipwrights have never seen such a ship, and they will not build it too quickly. However, the adult's gloves and spirits were sold very well, and the cost of shipbuilding was about the same when the two were combined. A lot of spirits have been delivered, and I've kept them safe. The glove boy must have seen it. Another point is that many wealthy businessmen, mainly in Suzhou, want to participate in shipbuilding and go to sea to do business. I don't know if you will agree to send a lot of money, let them stay first, and wait for you to come back to deal with it. ”

Cheng Yue nodded with a smile and said, "These rich businessmen's sense of smell is really sensitive. Yes, why not? We can partner with them, build more ships, and make more money, and they will open up territory for us in the future. The money sent is just the start-up capital for our industrial development, and I am worried that I don't have enough money. Hahahaha......"

Turning to Liu Shun, he said, "How are you there?" ”

Liu Shun hurriedly said: "Roughly the cover is out of shape, the requirements of these two blast furnaces are too high, the craftsmen are building while checking, lest they make mistakes, plus the New Year a few days ago, it took some time, and it will take a few days to initially build it, but it will not work and try again." A lot of the raw materials that Childe ordered to prepare were also bought, and they were all stacked separately, and the stone factory was also under construction, but Childe's requirements were unheard of, and the craftsmen were working while researching, not so fast. ”

Cheng Yue said: "These craftsmen must be raised, and they will never be allowed to work for others anymore, understand?" ”

Liu Shun bowed and said, "If there is a leak, I am the only one who asks." ”
