813. Establishment of Mengzhou (I)

Hearing Fang Xuanling's shout, everyone's noise finally stopped. And everyone wants to see how the two prime ministers deal with this problem, after all, this is a big deal. If it is a county seat in another place to upgrade the level, this problem is not big. But this is a subordinate county of the Eastern Capital, so the meaning is different. That's why everyone is so noisy, and the public says that the public is reasonable, and the mother says that the mother is reasonable. However, there are still a lot of personal thoughts mixed in here, which cannot be said.

"According to the situation, Mengjin County is indeed not suitable for being tied to other counties in Luoyang. So, in my personal opinion, it is basically feasible to form a separate state. Fang Xuanling said.

But Du Ruhui immediately added: "It's not feasible, but it must work." If Luoyang has been in charge of Mengjin County, it is tantamount to dragging its feet, and this kind of thing must not be done. delaying the development of others, isn't this hated? If other counties in Luoyang can do the same, it can also give him a bright future. And we also want to reward, since Mengjin County has developed well, then we will naturally have to upgrade the level. But if the development is not good, then we have to lower the level accordingly. Therefore, nothing in this world is set in stone, it all depends on their own efforts. If in the future, even if Luoyang is not suitable for being the eastern capital, then the level must be reduced, and this is the same as thunder. Therefore, every qiē depends on your efforts. However, since Mengjin County has done an excellent job, then we naturally have to consider upgrading them. ”

These two prime ministers, who are Li Shimin's second generals, cooperate intimately. They Fang Xuanling was responsible for throwing bricks and attracting jade, and Du Ruhui made the most critical decision, which happened to be a good way to make Datang run perfectly. Therefore, these two prime ministers, who complement each other's personalities and abilities, are very good candidates for Shangshu Province.

"You see, the population of this Mengjin County has grown to more than 50,000 people, and it is increasing by thousands every day. This is remarkable, but it is equivalent to a lower state. So. In terms of population, they are all eligible to move up the ranks! Fang Xuanling said.

Although Mengjin County currently has more than 50,000 people, this county was already a very huge county seat during the Tang Dynasty. At this time, the county was not like the later generations, where there were hundreds of thousands or even millions of people in a single county. In this era, even Chang'an does not have a million people. The population of Chang'an reached one million, which was only available in the prosperous era of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, and it was good to have more than 300,000 people at this time. Therefore, the county seat of 50,000 people is already a very huge county, which is a lot more than an ordinary state. So, if in terms of population. That could have been a state entirely.

"Next, you can see the average income of each household in this Mengjin County. The average annual income of each household in Mengjin County is much higher than that of other counties. And the so-called disposable income of the people is also rising. Therefore, they are so rich that they still have to forcibly twist them with Luoyang? Such a rich place, that is enough to be a state, and even better than many upper states. Du Ruhui said.

This is also an increase in per capita disposable income. It makes Mengjin County feel very distinctive. During this period, no household in the Tang Dynasty basically had the same income, because they all relied on agriculture for their livelihood, if there was no good weather. Or any drought or flood disaster, it is basically constant, and there will not be too many changes. And Meng Jin's characteristic is that women can also come out to work, which is encouraged by Ma Zhou. Of course. Jingwen did not report this aspect to Shangshu Province, because if it was reported to the above, I am afraid that it would have a great impact.

However, Jingwen knew that other counties would soon follow suit. That's because they have learned from each other, and they see that Mengjin County will get the number of jù, and then they will also let the women come out to work, and then they can make a good number of jù reports. As long as you can make up a share of the disposable income of each family, it means that the time has come for you to be promoted and make a fortune. Of course, it is difficult to increase disposable income rapidly if agriculture alone, so only women can be allowed to work, so that the income of each household can increase significantly.

This is the benefit of the Tang Dynasty, they did not receive the poison of the so-called feudal etiquette, and thought that women came out to work as a flood beast. Although the government does not explicitly support it, women's work is only discussed, but it will not be completely excluded. And if women can give magistrates hope for promotion, then magistrates will never continue to exclude women from working. Don't think that these magistrates won't do this, magistrates can do anything in order to get promoted. This is the characteristic of official fans, and Jingwen wants to use this characteristic to gradually improve the status of women.

And if you have a very good number report, then the next step is very logical. And everyone looked at the report, and it was obvious that these numbers surprised everyone. They didn't have the habit of counting these people's livelihood numbers before, and then compared the situation before Ma Zhou took office, which made them all feel the rapid progress of Mengjin County in just a few months. In the past few months, the population has increased, the people's income has increased, and even the proportion of people with education has increased, and such a place must be better than Luoyang. Luoyang can't do such a rapid increase, so it can be regarded as the best.

"The old man supports the promotion of this Mengjin County, and this Mengjin County is really almost educational. The number of people who can read makes up one-tenth of the population, which is too powerful, so this should be improved. Kong Yingda said.

After Kong Yingda spoke, those academic officials also took the initiative to speak, obviously agreeing to this. After all, if Mengjin County has been kept within the jurisdiction of Luoyang, it will harm Mengjin County, which is not acceptable to those officials who really have a fair heart. As for Luoyang, it is also an eastern capital, and there are many subordinate counties, so it is a big deal to allocate another county seat here.

"Okay, since everyone has reached a unanimous opinion, then I will report it to the emperor and let the emperor come to the holy ruling." Fang Xuanling said.

Not long after, Fang Xuanling also came to Li Shimin. (To be continued......)
