Chapter 369: The Great Migration

The efficiency of the Yamen's acting government affairs has always been very high, but this time, after the strategy of the great migration was determined, many officials were still busy, especially Hao Jing, who had not rested for several days, and a large number of documents needed to be processed and approved, and time could not be delayed.

The Spring Festival is approaching, and it is the spring ploughing season soon, and a large number of farmers must be moved to Jingzhaofu Road and other places during the spring ploughing season, so that there is no hope for the revival of Jingzhaofu Road and other places in the coming year.

Many documents and notices began to be posted in various places under the jurisdiction of Sichuan, and officials at all levels of government also began to enter the village to publicize the policy, and the amount of land that can be obtained by relocation is still very attractive, as long as they are willing to take the initiative to relocate to Jingzhaofu Road, Lintao Road, Qingyuan Road and Fengxiang Road, etc., men over the age of 18 can share five acres of cultivated land, and women over the age of 16 can get three acres of cultivated land, and the government also gives a certain amount of relocation expenses.

However, the time requirements for relocation are also harsh, and the relocation must begin in the month of Layue, and after the relocation to the destination and the acquisition of cultivated land, they will immediately start cultivating and sowing, and the local local government will give corresponding support and guidance, and at the same time, all the relocated farmers will be entered into the local yellow register, which means that the household registration is also moved.

Wu Shaogang and the envoy of Jiedu Yamen were originally a little worried, after all, Sichuan has been stable for a long time, and the people have long been stable and have lived a peaceful and prosperous life.

But what Wu Shaogang didn't expect was that from the fifteenth day of the lunar month, the upsurge of relocation began to appear.

The first to be launched was Chengdu Fu Road and Tongchuan Fu Road, many people with their families, under the guidance of the government and the army, began to move in the direction of Lizhou West Road, and other places, in the twentieth day of the lunar month, also began to act.

The number of people willing to relocate exceeded the expectations of Wu Shaogang and the envoy Yamen.

On the 25th day of the lunar month, the festival made the yamen have to issue a document again, requiring all localities to control the number of relocated people, and the total number of households to be controlled within 800,000, otherwise the festival will make it difficult for the yamen and the local government to support.

From the upsurge of relocation, Wu Shaogang realized the people's trust in the government.

Land is the lifeblood of farmers, Sichuan and Yunnan and other places, because of special reasons, land annexation matters still exist, many people are leased land to cultivate, in order to maintain their lives, these people who do not have their own land, after learning about the relocation, can obtain a large amount of land news, are not hesitant to relocate, in their opinion, as long as there is land, they can live in peace, cultivate the land well, can get a good life.

What's more, the government notice also said that all taxes on the land will be exempted within two years, that is to say, all the harvest on the land will be their own, and such a good policy, if it does not keep up, it will be too cost-effective.

Starting from the 10th day of the lunar month, the festival envoy Yamen sent a lot of officials to various places to supervise the inspection, first, to see if the relocation could be carried out as scheduled, and secondly, to check whether there was a forced relocation.

Wu Shaogang went to Luzhou in person.

Huang Jiaming, the deputy envoy of Sichuan Province, the defense envoy of Tongchuan Fulu Road, and the prefect of Luzhou, accompanied Wu Shaogang to inspect.

Tongchuan Fu Road is Wu Shaogang's earliest base, the folk customs here are very good, the people absolutely trust the government, compared with other places in Sichuan, the people here are also the richest, Wu Shaogang just took office, implored the imperial court to exempt three years of taxes, so that the people got a respite, plus the local government's support for the people, the people completely stabilized.

However, there is also a problem with Tongchuan Fu Road, that is, the population is too concentrated.

When Wu Shaogang led his troops to defeat Liu Quan, the entire Tongchuan Fu Road had less than 300,000 households, and after several years of construction, the population of Tongchuan Fu Road soared to nearly 1.5 million households, which was already seriously overloaded.

After the documents for the relocation of the Jiedu came out this time, Huang Jiaming personally publicized it, which caused a great response in the entire Tongchuanfu Road, and the number of peasant households who were willing to relocate and began to relocate reached 400,000 households, accounting for about half of the total number of households determined by the Yamen of the Jiedu Envoy.

Luzhou Mansion Ya, wing.

"Lord Huang, it seems that during this year's Spring Festival, many yamen in Fuzhou and counties should not think about being able to rest."

"My lord, there is no problem for officials at all levels not to rest, according to the requirements of the Yamen of the Jiedu Envoy, the Yamen of Fuzhou County has specially taken out a part of the money and grain to subsidize many officials, and the enthusiasm of the people is very high, and the lower officials feel that the number of 800,000 households limited by the Jiedu Yamen is somewhat inappropriate."

Wu Shaogang looked at Huang Jiaming.

"Oh, tell me why it's not appropriate."

"Xiaguan on Jingzhaofu Road, Lintao Road, Qingyuan Road and Fengxiang Road, etc., still have some understanding, these places were actually directly controlled by Liu Heima, the battle of Diaoyu City, the Mongolian court from these places to draw a large number of young and strong, into the army to fight, because the Mongolian court policy was too strict, led to the people rebellion, the Mongolian army carried out a brutal suppression, and even formed a thousand miles of uninhabited situation, whether it was Kublai Khan, or, the Mongolian court, or even Liu Heima, They all think that the folk customs in this area are strong, and they need to be ruthlessly rectified. . . ”

Wu Shaogang nodded slightly, he knew these situations.

"Xiaguan thinks that if you want to make Jingzhaofu Road and other places completely stable, you need to be bold, and Jiedu made the yamen decide to relocate farmers to Jingzhaofu Road and other places, Xiaguan thinks that it is the best way, as long as the farmers go over there and farm the land well, the government will exempt them from paying taxes for two years, and Xiaguan can be sure that the situation will be very different next year."

"Jingzhaofu Road, Lintao Road, Qingyuan Road and Fengxiang Road and other places, sparsely populated, there must be a lot of abandoned land, only by relocating enough peasant households in the past, can all the land be cultivated, Xia Guan always feels, since the decision to relocate, then do it all at once, Lord Li is in charge of the affairs of these places, the government at all levels has verified the situation of cultivated land, judging from the documents of the Jiedu Envoy Yamen, at least 1.2 million peasant households need to be relocated, in order to truly make these places completely stable."

。。。

After Huang Jiaming finished speaking, Wu Shaogang sighed slightly.

"Lord Huang, what you said is right, in fact, I also thought of it, but the relocation of millions of peasant households, the festival degree makes the yamen and the government at all levels unbearable, Tongchuan Mansion Road is needless to say, the place is rich, but other places are not easy to say, once the government at all levels can not fulfill the promise to the people, it will be dishonest to the people, such a thing can never be done, so I have put forward a request to Li Siqi, the relocated farmers, in addition to the allocation of land according to the requirements, the remaining land, also needs to be cultivated, It can be in the form of a lease, let the peasant households farm, the government collects a certain amount of grain, and the rest of the grain belongs to the people, and next year, when the situation improves, a part of the people will be relocated. ”

Huang Jiaming's Lian was slightly red, and then he spoke.

"My lord, this is the mistake of the lower officials, the lower officials did not expect to consume too much money, but the lower officials still think that now they consume more money and let the relocation be in place in one step, it is still beneficial, the Mongolian court has sent envoys to come, which means that it does not want to start a conquest in Sichuan, at least two to three years or so, there can be no war here, in this case, it should be a good choice to take out money to stabilize the place and develop people's livelihood."

After Huang Jiaming finished speaking, Wu Shaogang was stunned, which he really didn't expect.

Kublai Khan sent Zhang Wenqian as an envoy to Sichuan to negotiate, and his ultimate goal was to stabilize Sichuan and not delay his strategic move to conquer Xiangyang Fucheng.

In fact, Jingzhaofu Road and other places can be stabilized, and the strength of Sichuan will be greatly enhanced.

If you don't have enough money and food, you can take the method of borrowing and spending, or even the method of eating and eating grain, which is very common after a thousand years, just like building a house, waiting for the money to be placed at home, and then building a house after it is enough, so it is difficult to build a house, all in the process of construction, constantly trying to find a way, and finally the house is built, and there will be no heavy foreign debt.

After thinking for a while, Wu Shaogang smiled and spoke.

"Lord Huang, your suggestion is indeed good, I didn't think it through, it seems that this relocation can indeed be done in one step, so as not to think about the relocation next year."

Soon, a letter was quickly sent to the Yamen of the Jiedu Envoy, which was written by Wu Shaogang himself.

After receiving the letter, Hao Jing thought about it for a while, and after finding Li Tingzhi to discuss, he immediately began to take action to expand the total number of rural households relocated in the year to 1.2 million, including 300,000 households on Jingzhaofu Road, 250,000 households on Fengxiang Road, 350,000 households on Qingyuan Road, and 300,000 households on Lintao Road.

After the documents of the Yamen were distributed to various places, larger-scale relocation began to appear.

The Spring Festival is approaching day by day, but the government at all levels is still busy, and more relocated people are still running on the road.

On the thirtieth day of the lunar month and the first day of the first lunar month, the officials of the Yamen and the government at all levels did not rest at all, some were busy in the yamen, and some followed the way of relocation.

Wu Shaogang also did not rest, although he returned to Chengdu Fucheng, but every day he was also in the festival to make the yamen, before dawn to the yamen, after dark to return to the mansion, even the 30th month of the New Year's dinner, is also eaten after dark. (To be continued.) )
