Chapter 244: Three Legions Formed
However, after the excitement, the next day, Qin Duan began to have a headache, and the matter of the rebellious soldiers was solved, but how to restore the economy of the two prefectures that were on the verge of collapse was indeed a big problem.
The first is the problem of funds, this time it is impossible for the imperial court to have any financial support, Qin Duan knows that just the military and political discipline in the northwest has caused an uproar in the court, and there are not a few people who are red-eyed, jealous, and worried, and it is too unrealistic to think of other ideas.
Liang Qiming has already said that there are not enough manpower to take over the management of the two counties, and either the army will take over the local administration, or it can only maintain the status quo, both of which are unacceptable to Qin Duan.
It is important to know that the military's involvement in local management will only be counterproductive, and will not only not help the development of the local economy, but will also cause many sequelae.
Maintaining the status quo will not only fail to consolidate Qin Duan's rule and management of these two places, but on the contrary, it is very likely that other forces will take advantage of the situation, and when the time comes, a situation will be formed, which will really be too late to regret.
Qin Dui rubbed his face with both hands, trying to expel these troublesome things from his mind, but it didn't work, avoiding difficulties is not Qin Dui's style, Qin Dui was cheering himself up in his heart, and he was also thinking of a way to solve the problem.
"Qiming, Mr. Zhuge , now that the rebels in Meishan County and Longdong County have been basically resolved, what should we do next?"
Qin Duan asked with a little headache, when the territory was small, he always wanted to grab more territory, but now that the territory is bigger, Qin Duan suddenly felt a little indigestion.
"Your Excellency. The humble officials believe that the first thing is to establish the local administration of the two counties, which cannot be delayed. Zhuge Fang said.
"I know this, but I'm looking for so many talents all at once." Qin Duan said with a bit of a headache, you must know that it takes a lot of talents to build the administrative structure of the two counties.
"My lord, we can recruit some local officials who were originally in the two counties to do things for us. And adults, do you remember the little ones you brought to Tokugawa-gun? Liang Qiming said.
"I remember, it was three years ago, when we came to the northwest, we took in the children all the way, and I remember that these people arranged for them to go to the academy to study." Qin Du said in retrospect.
"Yes, but some of the older ones can graduate now, and they can be allowed to work at the grassroots level." Liang Qiming said.
"Aren't they a little young?" Qin Duan asked with some concern.
"My lord, they're not too young. Many people are seventeen or eighteen years old, adult, you are a four-grade official at the age of twenty-one, and now you are only twenty-three years old, and you are already the envoy of the Northwest Festival, and Mr. Zhuge began to travel around the world at the age of fifteen. â
Liang Qiming said that Liang Qiming had no choice, and he really couldn't draw so many people to form government agencies in Meishan County and Longdong County. I had to hit the main one on such a reserve.
"Well, as long as it's over sixteen. You can pick and choose some people from there, but you have to train them before they work. â
Qin Du thought about it and agreed to Liang Qiming's proposal, after all, these children were originally used as government reserve personnel, and now it is not necessarily a bad thing to let them go to work in advance, no matter how much they read, there is no point at all without practice.
"Your Excellency. The personnel matter is solved, and now there is a big problem to be solved immediately. Zhuge Fang said.
"What's the problem?"
Qin Du frowned and asked, in Zhuge Fang's eyes, it is a big problem, it is really a big problem, and it must be dealt with as soon as possible.
"After the ransacking of the rebels. There have been several months of war, coupled with the hoarding of grain by some unscrupulous businessmen, and now the price of grain in Meishan and Longdong counties is rising every day, and there is a phenomenon in many places that cannot afford to buy grain and starve to death. Zhuge Fang said.
"The question that Mr. Zhuge has thought, in fact, Lord Qin has already thought of it, and has already arranged for me to urgently allocate 100,000 truckloads of grain to Meishan County and Longdong County."
Liang Qiming said that after two consecutive bumper harvests, the grain reserves of Tokugawa County have reached an astonishing level, which can fully supply the grain of Meishan and Longdong counties for half a year.
âŚâŚ
With a steady stream of grain from Tokugawa County to Meishan and Longdong Counties, the price of grain was suddenly flattened, and Qin Duan also ordered the opening of warehouses to help the victims who were indeed unable to live, these measures had an immediate effect, and the social order was quickly restored, but the hard-hit economy could not be restarted for a while, and this was not a simple job, I don't know how much time it would take to complete.
It turned out that the remnants of the 30,000 troops in Longdong County were reorganized with the consent of Qin Du, and Liu Xiaoshan also changed the blood of its main officers when it was reorganized, and the important officers above the captain level were all selected from the first and second garrison divisions of Northwest County to serve as the backbone loyal to Qin Dui, and the original officers were rearranged after passing the examination.
At the same time, according to Qin Dui's plan, Meishan County and Longdong County also began to post announcements to recruit soldiers and enrich the army, and Qin Duan was preparing to form two main battle corps and a cavalry corps.
From June 15 to 17, the 16th year of the Apocalypse, Qin Duan held a large-scale meeting in Longdong County, and the topic of the meeting was the future development direction and plan of the four northwestern counties after the rebellion, as well as the problems and difficulties of the existing ZĂ i.
In view of the importance and urgency of this meeting, I ask all participants to put forward practical views on the scope of their work involved, and welcome comments and suggestions on the overall work.
The meeting was held on time the next day, at which officials from various provinces and the armed forces spoke enthusiastically and put forward many constructive suggestions for future work.
Local officials are generally low and urgently need to be raised; The number of migrants is still huge, and the pressure on education and health facilities has become overwhelming, and the treasury is close to depletion, and it is impossible to build more facilities to provide more services; Due to the large increase in population in the jurisdiction, the public security situation is becoming more and more complicated, and the public security forces cannot keep up, and the public security situation in some areas has been repeated; Although great progress has been made in infrastructure construction, it is still far from satisfying the needs of the rapidly developing economy, and the combat effectiveness of the armed forces urgently needs to be further enhanced.
At the end of the meeting, Qin Du made a concluding speech, on the one hand, Qin Du elaborated on the favorable shape and environment we are currently in, as well as the advantages we have, and encouraged everyone to cheer up their spirits and work hard to create a better tomorrow; On the other hand, Qin Duan also unabashedly put out the problems and difficulties of the existence, and asked everyone to work together to overcome the difficulties.
