Chapter 340: Integrating Government Affairs (Part II)

"Ladies and gentlemen, the economic revitalization plan to be implemented next involves 25 counties in three states, with a vast area and a large population, so we have to act cautiously. Therefore, it took great pains to gather you in Dingxiang in order to listen to public opinion and formulate a plan that conforms to the actual situation. ”

"However, I will say the ugly things in advance, and before the economic stimulus plan is decided, you can argue, provoke, and discuss, and there is no problem, but once the final plan is decided, officials at all levels must implement it unconditionally."

"No!" Everyone replied in unison.

"Everything is based on education, first ask the head of Xuecao to talk about Huangfu Qi!"

Huangfu got up and gestured to Wei Shuo first, and then said loudly: "My lord, as well as all my colleagues here, when Liaodong was just recovered five years ago, the illiteracy rate of the common people under his rule was as high as more than ninety percent. Last year, Liaodong completed its first revitalization plan, and its Chinese education has been greatly developed, and the illiteracy rate has dropped to about 80%. ”

"It is precisely by relying on the popularization and promotion of education that the people of Liaodong have burst out with more enthusiasm and strength than before, and it can be said that culture and education are the greatest help to support Liaodong's successive battles. Therefore, the minister believed that in the economic revitalization plan of the four prefectures, Liaodong should increase investment in culture and education, and strive to establish a four-level school system of township, county, county, and prefecture in the four prefectures of Youping and Shuo. ”

"If the pastoral government invests no less than one million yuan in cultural and educational undertakings every year, the minister is confident that after the completion of the five-year economic revitalization plan, the proportion of illiterate people in the entire four prefectures will drop to about 60 percent, and then at least nearly half of the people in Liaodong will be literate."

After listening to Huangfuqi's words, none of the people present came out to refute it, all aspects of Liaodong need to rely on the promotion of culture and education, whether it is Wei Shuo or other important ministers of culture and military, they do not pay attention to the development of culture and education. Besides, the promotion of culture and education in remote counties and counties is also related to the great cause of the naturalization of the Hu nationality. No one dared to raise objections.

"The suggestion of the head of the imperial fu is very good, go down to Xuecao, make a detailed plan and submit it to the pastoral government for consideration."

"No!" The emperor retreated with joy, planning to go back to the scholars and adjutants to discuss a matter of one.

"Ladies and gentlemen, considering the different situations in various places, I intend to divide them into three major regions: Bingzhou, Shuoyong, and Youping, and formulate corresponding economic revitalization plans according to local conditions. Then it will be submitted to the pastoral government for deliberation, discussion, and synthesis, and finally a big plan that includes the four states will be come up. ”

"Taking Bingzhou as an example, I heard that there is a lot of coal here, and the local government can use coal as an opportunity to revitalize the economy of Bingzhou."

"My lord, is there coal in the state?"

Hearing this, Wen Qiao couldn't help but wonder a little, as a native of Bingzhou, he never knew that there was coal in Bingzhou. Since Liaodong used coal to make fire and steel, coal has replaced charcoal as the most consumed resource in daily life. If there is coal in the state. That is tantamount to having a mountain of gold and silver in the hands of the state.

"Yes, why not? The coal reserves in Bingzhou are abundant, and almost all the coal in Dajin is concentrated here, and I have asked people to carry out survey work, and the results will come out soon. ”

Knowing that there is a large amount of coal in the state, local officials breathe a sigh of relief, and with coal, the economic development of the state will not be a problem.

"Don't think that everything will be fine with coal, coal only provides the foundation for the economic development of the state. The future development of the state depends on your efforts. Moreover, the development of the state cannot rely entirely on coal resources. After all, it is limited, and it must not be a mountain to suffer. We should consider the parallel development of agriculture, animal husbandry and livestock, and avoid over-reliance on coal resources. ”

"The lord is reasonable, and the ministers must keep it in mind!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw the new Shuozhou Assassin Shi Gao Xu stand up, and I saw him salute Wei Shuo on the main throne first. Then he arched his hand to his colleagues around him and said: "Colleagues, Shuozhou has fallen under the iron hooves of the Hu people for several years, and its economy is quite backward compared with other places. ”

In order to revitalize the economy of Shuozhou, the Assassin Mansion took the opportunity of building the north-south artery to invest extensively in the construction of cement, lime, mud brick and other factories in the four counties of Fengyi, Beidi, Anding and Xinping. In addition, Shuozhou also intends to develop animal husbandry and breeding industry by virtue of the abundant water and grass in Shuofang and Shangjun to revitalize Shuozhou's agriculture! ”

Gao Xu stood on the main hall. In the face of many colleagues talking eloquently, in five years, with his intentions and hard work, he climbed all the way from the county order to the high position in the history of assassination, and paid a lot of effort. In order to make a name for himself, he was very well prepared before this, and blurted out all kinds of data and information.

Looking at the high-spirited Gao Xu, Wei Shuo was also pleased, he believed that in the future, officials should take Gao Xu as an example, as a civil official, they must not be ignorant of economic affairs, and anyone who can only talk will not get any opportunities in the Liaodong system.

He hoped that the top and bottom of Liaodong would form a kind of tradition and principle that 'no county should be the center', and that all officials who are in high positions and positions must be promoted step by step from the bottom. He will never allow Liaodong to have the kind of situation in history that he can become the prime minister after taking the top prize and sharpening his position in the central Qing Dynasty for a few years.

In Wei Shuo's future planning, the prime minister is from the state pastor, and the general is from the army, which is a principle that must be observed!

While Wei Shuo was thinking about his thoughts, the discussion around him still did not stop. In order to compete for financial allocations for the coming year, various localities have launched their own flagship projects based on Gao Xu. For example, Qingdao and Lushun can only make a fuss about the development of trade and economy, and it is hoped that the pastoral government will continue to increase investment and expand the wharf in the next few years.

Bingzhou Thorn Shi Shi Xiake gave full play to the advantages of many coal resources in Bingzhou, and was determined to use the coal industry as the leader to drive the economic development of the whole state. At the same time, they also hope to increase investment in the textile industry in the state, and strive to achieve economic recovery in the next few years.

Youzhou continues to invest in steel and other industries, giving full play to their industrial advantages, and using the steel industry to drive other industries in eastern Liaodong.

In addition, there are a number of prefectures and counties close to the sea, which are preparing to develop shipbuilding and marine fishing, and in short, local officials have put forward a series of measures and plans to revitalize the economy according to their own advantages.

Of course, not all plans were supported by Wei Shuo, among which the plans of Shuofang County and Shangjun to open up farmland in the local area were vetoed by Wei Shuo, who not only vetoed the plan to reclaim the grassland into urban farmland, but also demanded that the Shuozhou Thorn History Mansion must protect the local grassland and water sources!

Many people can't understand why Wei Shuo obstructed the reclamation of barren land in Shuofang and Shangjun, only Wei Shuo from modern times knows that the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties period was the most serious time for soil erosion in Hexi, Western Regions, Guanzhong, and Hetao, and by the Sui and Tang dynasties, the water and soil in the above areas were seriously damaged and it was impossible to restore them to the Qin and Han dynasties.

At present, soil erosion in the Yellow River has just begun, and a large area of land has not yet become desertified, and Wei Shuo does not want Shuofang County, which was still rich in water and grass, to become a desert in a few decades.

Therefore, Wei Shuo could only forcibly block the plan of Shuofang County and Shangjun to reclaim farmland, and demanded that the local area only develop animal husbandry to protect the local water and soil.

After 10 days of continuous discussions, the people of Liaodong finally reached an agreement on the economic revitalization plan.

After the joint meeting, businessmen from all over the country organized a large number of materials and manpower and poured into Youshuo and Sanzhou. Businessmen are the best at learning, when Liaodong first implemented the economic revitalization plan, many businessmen did not know how to use the rules for their own benefit, but now they know how to take the initiative.

Soon after, a new round of investment boom was set off in various places, and new factories, new roads, and new schools were constantly started construction. However, there are also a number of hidden dangers.

After the start of the large-scale construction, Wei Shuo attached the most importance to the issue of supervision, and in the past few years, Liaodong was relatively poor, and there was basically no corruption problem. But after five years of peaceful life, officials everywhere must have changed a lot.

In order to prevent accidents, Wei Shuo has intensified supervision and stripped all kinds of signs in the cradle. He didn't want to dig up a huge corruption in the future, because then even if the corrupt officials were brought to justice, the local people would suffer.

Wei Shuo asked the Pastoral Government and the Supervision Office to form a joint inspection team to go to various places to supervise the work, and he separately sent Peng Shi to take some officials to various places to conduct secret investigations. Coupled with the increasingly bold newspaper supervision in various places, it can basically ensure that the officials in Liaodong are clean and clear. (To be continued.) )
