(Commuter pass, commuter pass, commuter pass, please commuter pass!) "Has Huo Yan already left? ”

Putting down the official document in his hand, Yu Guozhen glanced up at Zhang Zheng.

"I've already left, according to the meaning of the little official, I let him watch "The Biography of Li Yan in the Three Kingdoms".

"Well, you can take this official document and take a look." Yu Guozhen pushed the official document in his hand over.

On the dock, after Yu Guozhen reprimanded Huo Yan, he ordered someone to take off the epaulettes on his shoulders, which meant that Huo Yan was expelled from the Tiger Guard.

For Huo Yan, this was probably the second most painful punishment after being executed, and even more painful than execution to some extent.

At that time, he was stunned, knelt on the ground and cried, which made Yu Guozhen even more angry.

What is the difference between this and a child who has lost his beloved toy!

In fact, Huo Yan's mind is only eighteen years old, and he is far from mature. However, no matter how much he cried, there was no way to turn around, and he was removed from the Tiger Guard team, which was the final disposition of Yu Guozhen after consulting several people.

Although Huo Yan brought considerable losses to Yu Guozhen's plan, fortunately, Jiang'an had a good ability to adapt to contingencies, turning bad things into good things, and robbing Xinxiang of the most scarce population in Xinxiang today. Therefore, on the issue of dealing with Huo Yan, Zhang Zheng, Tian Boguang, Zhang Chi and others provided advice, the lightest is to remove all ranks, starting from small soldiers, and the most important is to remove the tiger guards, and Yu Guozhen adopted the heaviest of them.

But Huo Yan couldn't be raised in vain, so he was sent to Xinhang, Ye Wuya, a bitter and mean guy, thought that he was very willing to clean up Huo Yan for Yu Guozhen.

"Is this true?" Zhang Zheng put down the official document in his hand, and his face was quite ugly.

"What do you say?"

"Brother Erzhu's news, of course, is true...... Shi Kefa: They're too stupid, aren't they? ”

"It doesn't have to do with Shi Kefa, although Shi Kefa is a little stupid, but it's not so stupid...... There are changes in the court, and people are panicking. ”

What shocked Zhang Zheng was that Zhang Xianzhong, who had been silent for a year, began to make a fuss again. He began to explore the eastward from the first month, first meeting with Luo Rucai and the fifth battalion of Gezuo, feinting to attack the south of the river, and then going east again, plundering the Chao' Lake basin. At this time, the Ming court is setting off a new round of party disputes, first a degraded official Fu Chaoyou suddenly attacked Wen Tiren, who is said to be the first assistant of Wen Tiren's six crimes, Wen Tiren was shocked and angry when he learned of this, and immediately identified it as the Donglin Party's instigation, so he ordered Zhang Hanru to attack Qian Qianyi, Qu Shiyun Township Lawless, and let Zhang Pu's fellow villager Lu Wensheng attack Zhang Pu "advocate the restoration of the society and chaos in the world", for a while, the DPRK and China were in chaos, Shi Kefa and others were busy with party disputes, where is there still room for Zhang Xianzhong.

"Uncle, Madame's please." Yu Guozhen was about to continue discussing the current situation with Zhang Zheng, when he suddenly heard the sound of broken footsteps, and then a handmaiden appeared at the door.

It is said that it is a handmaiden, but it is better to say that it is a female soldier, her dress is no different from that of the tiger guard, her appearance is ordinary, but because of this tiger guard costume, she looks heroic. This is to take care of Fang Ziyi's specially trained female soldiers, especially after Fang Ziyi confirms that she is pregnant, they will be responsible for taking care of the details of Fang Ziyi's life.

"I'll go over first, I guess it's a letter from my uncle." Yu Guozhen smiled slightly, not ashamed of taking on official duties because of housework: "You discuss it, draw up a charter, Zhang Xianzhong's affairs, do we want to take care of it, if we want to take care of it, how to manage it." ”

He left as he spoke, leaving Zhang Chi, Song Xiance, Zhang Zheng, and Tian Boguang here. After he left for a while, Song Xiance coughed, with a conceited look on his face: "If you don't say it, Song will say it first." ”

"Mr. Song, as long as he doesn't say push back pictures, it's fine." Tian Boguang said with a smile: "Even if it is said which girl is the most outstanding, we all love to listen to it, but when it comes to pushing back pictures, I get dizzy." ”

Song Xiance scolded with a smile: "You should treat everyone as unserious as you?" ”

Originally, as soon as Song Xiance opened his mouth with a taste of conceit, Zhang Zheng's sharp eyes looked at him, Zhang Zheng had never admired this fake Taoist priest, but as soon as Tian Boguang interjected, the atmosphere became relaxed again. Song Xiance no longer looked like an old god, and amplified his voice: "Song thinks he still has to go!" ”

"Oh?"

"Although we have a new population of 170,000 people in Dongjiang Town, in my opinion, there are too many of these people, so we need to get some people from other places!"

Zhang Zheng and Tian Boguang couldn't understand the meaning of his words, but Zhang Chi immediately understood.

170,000 people in Dongjiang Town, no matter how they are broken up and separated, they are always 170,000 fellow villagers, and the population controlled by Yu Guozhen now is only 180,000, and in two or three years, these 170,000 people will all join the Xinxiang system, that is to say, they will occupy half of the country!

However, they have not been here for a long time, and it is impossible for some of them to enter the top level of Xinxiang immediately, and there will definitely be some ambitious people among them who are dissatisfied with this, and if they take the opportunity to incite trouble, although under such a strict system as Xinxiang, they will not cause too much trouble, but it is enough to brew the signs of disputes between the township parties.

Therefore, more people from all over the world need to be divided.

"Not only that, the 170,000 people in Dongjiang seem to be a lot, but in fact they may not be enough...... Uncle has already ordered the Shilu iron ore on Qiongzhou Island to be opened, even if it is used as a slave laborer, it will require a large number of people to be present and managed, and it is necessary to open a wharf and set up a track, which will require thousands of strong laborers. The scale of the Longmen shipyard was no longer sufficient, and Nanhai Bo meant to double the size of the shipyard within a year, and strive to build six battleships, twelve frigates, and twenty-four merchant ships every year. The workshops in Tan Xiang are now becoming more and more scarce, and we have moved almost all of our light industries to Hoi An......"

The word "light industry" appeared in Song Xiance's mouth, which made Zhang Chi laugh silently, this word was explained to Song Xiance a few days ago, when Song Xiance was interested in Xinxiang's general affairs for some reason, but he consulted a lot of information here.

Because the scale of Xinxiang was really not suitable for expansion, Yu Guozhen transferred light industries such as food processing to Hoi An, and those who remained in Xinxiang were mainly machinery manufacturing, metallurgical ordnance, glass manufacturing, shipbuilding and vehicle manufacturing. These industries have a higher level of technical secrecy than food processing, so they must be firmly controlled in Xinxiang. In order to guard these workshops, Yu Guozhen left at least 2,000 tiger guards in Xinxiang, and those who stayed behind were ordered to blow up the workshops if necessary, and they could not let some secrets fall into the hands of the enemy.

"However, Hoi An is not yet fully developed, and there is still a lot of idle land, poor roads, and incomplete water conservancy facilities......"

From Xinxiang to Hoi An, Yu Guozhen's emphasis on farmland and water conservancy has made many people feel outrageous. However, Yu Guozhen believes that taking agriculture as the foundation is not just talking, but at least from several aspects: agricultural inputs, peasant incomes, and agricultural technology, all of which are indispensable. One of the most important agricultural inputs is infrastructure construction, such as farmland water conservancy, which not only helps to increase production and income, but also prevents and mitigates disasters. Xinxiang and Hoi An are both places with many storm winds, Xinxiang is prone to flash floods, Hoi An is prone to flooding, but there will also be times of major droughts. Therefore, Xinxiang maintained a large construction team and carried out semi-military management of them, in addition to using them to build roads and houses, the most important work was to build reservoirs, ditches and embankments. These projects now require a large number of manpower, and the phenomenon of "10,000 people fighting" to build a section of the embankment has appeared more than once in Hoi An, although it is rare in Xinxiang.

Song Xiance listed a lot, in short, it means that the population of 170,000 Dongjiang Town is still less for Xinxiang.

After he finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Chi, and Zhang Chi smiled: "I agree with Brother Song's opinion." ”

Song Xiance's old face was slightly red, these points of view were actually derived from his discussion with Zhang Chi, if it weren't for the data on the civil affairs of Xinxiang provided by Zhang Chi for him, he wouldn't be able to say so comprehensively. Moreover, it stands to reason that Zhang Chi should have put forward the proposal in the field of civil affairs, and he should only make suggestions from the perspective of military affairs.

They discussed it here, and someone recorded it for Yu Guozhen to read afterwards. After the two finished speaking, they both looked at Tian Boguang and Zhang Zheng, and Tian Boguang said with a smile: "Then I said it...... We want a mother-in-law, I'm done. ”

Everyone couldn't help laughing, Tian Boguang's three sentences couldn't do without women, otherwise he would die.

But what he said was true, Xinxiang needed a mother-in-law, which was a big problem that plagued Xinxiang almost from the beginning, and as time went on, this problem became more and more intractable. Now the ratio of men to women in Xinxiang is a terrible seven to three, even if Yu Guozhen buys those sold maids through various channels, he can't get them back.

There are more men and fewer women, and women can find jobs in textile workshops, glass workshops and other industries, and have an income equivalent to that of men, which also directly improves the status of women in Xinxiang. The real girl's family must marry Huwei, or marry the steward and master craftsman in the workshop.

If this situation continues, I am afraid that Xinxiang will be in turmoil. And the newcomers from Dongjiang Town are obviously more men than women, and the ratio is said to be eight to two, which is even more terrifying than Xinxiang.

Yu Guozhen, who had just stepped into the door, also laughed when he heard Tian Boguang's words: "You guy with only a mouth and no legs, every time I see you talk about this, I never see which girl you are really looking for, if you like it, why don't you say it?" ”

"Little officials don't slap their faces like this!" Tian Boguang jumped up: "I have to marry a beautiful woman no matter what." ”

With him in the cold, Yu Guozhen didn't bother to say more to him, and after returning to his position, he said: "It was Uncle Fang who wrote to me asking for help, and he also told Ziyi about it, so Ziyi asked me how the situation was." ”

Zhang Chi and Song Xiance exchanged glances, which was actually explaining to Fang Ziyi that she did not interfere in military and political affairs, but just paid attention to the situation of her uncle who raised her.

"I'll look at the records...... Zhang Zheng, you haven't said it yet, do you think this time is a war or not? Yu Guozhen asked.

"In order to keep the Yangtze River trade route open, it is necessary to fight." Zhang Zheng's angle is different from others.
