The war soon ended under the impetus of the Holy Alliance and the Black Iron City, and Shu Han could finally return to Joaquin City at this time, and Joaquin City at this time, compared with before, it was already very different, although Shu Han left only two months, but at this time, because Liu Sanyi injected nearly 40,000 people into Joaquin City, so that the population of Joaquin City has reached 110,000 now, and according to Liu Sanyi's plan, in the future, the peasants in the foothills of the city and the city will also relocate a part to Joaquin City.

There are two main reasons, one is that the strong trunk is weak, the population of Foothill City and Picheng is too large, which seriously threatens the dominance of Black Iron City, and naturally needs to be weakened, so in the future, there will be nearly 200,000 people leaving from Foothill City and Picheng and entering the three cities of Black Iron City, Joaquin City and Asakusa City, in order to weaken their strength, the whole plan will be carried out in the next two years, after all, to let the farmers reap the benefits, they have been promised tax exemption for two years, if they do not implement it, they will lose their trust, which is for the rulers, undoubtedly the biggest drawback.

Another point is that the foothills of the city and the city are mountainous areas, it is not easy to feed so many people, the life of the local farmers is very difficult, they spend more effort than the farmers on the plains, but the income is very small, often the output of each mu of land can be more than 100 catties less than the income of Huajin City and Black Iron City, which is undoubtedly a huge loss, so it is natural to change the industrial structure.

As for whether the farmers are willing to relocate, this is very easy, because the local farmers are not living well, and now they are exempt from tax for two years, which is naturally okay, but if they continue to collect taxes in the future, it will inevitably be difficult, and if they are willing to relocate to other cities, then the first year of tax is comprehensive, and the next three years will only collect 70% of the tax, so as to encourage them to leave their hometowns, so that even if they settle down and relocate, there must be many people who are willing to come to other cities to live.

And Huajin City is naturally a very important destination, first of all, the developable land of Asakusa City has been basically exhausted, after all, it is just a small basin, can not support too many farmers, as for the Black Iron City, there is still room for it, but the greatest development potential is Huajin City, thousands of square kilometers of plains, enough to feed hundreds of thousands of people, so Huajin City is also considered by Liu Sanyi to be the key target of future development, and even Liu Sanyi is ready to relocate his family to Huajin City.

As for why this is so, the reason is also very simple, that is, with the prevalence of trade in the future, although the Black Iron City is behind Asakusa City, it is always too close to the two forces, if it continues, it is difficult to guarantee that one day the secrets of the Black Iron City will not be snooped, so put more development potential on the side of Joaquin City, and also allow the strength of the Black Iron City to be preserved, even if the Black Iron City is not guaranteed one day, at least there is a big city that can ensure their safety, so in the next three to five years, The population of Joaquin City is bound to usher in a huge rise.

And even now, the occupancy of 40,000 urban population, has also tripled the urban construction area of Huajin City, the original population of Huajin City is only about 30,000, and now it is 70,000 people, when Shu Han came back, construction was started everywhere, half of the buildings had been built, and the city had begun to expand outside the city wall, so the first thing Shu Han did when he came back was to modify the second city wall.

Now the first city wall has not been completed, the construction of the second city wall has been put on the agenda, I have to say, the development speed of Huajin City is indeed very fast, Shu Han's ambition is also very large, the second city wall will encircle nearly two hundred square kilometers of land, this will be an extremely continuous city wall, almost on an equal footing with the Black Iron City.

This is not Shu Han's meaning alone, but the conclusion reached by discussing with Yang Wangdi and Liu Sanyi, the future Huajin City will be used as the second capital of the Black Iron City, the area and scale are naturally expanded, and a large number of scientific research institutions have factories here, which need to occupy a huge amount of land, rather than building a third city wall at that time, it is better to build the city wall in place now.

Shu Han also agrees with this, but this also makes his work very difficult, especially for the residents of Foothill City and the residents of Picheng, they originally lived in the mountains, and now they come to live in the plains, naturally they have a lot of unaccustomed habits, and at the same time, their words have a strong local accent, which sounds different from the residents of Joajin City, and originally this is the city of Joaquin City residents, and now the population of Foothill City and Picheng exceeds the local residents in the city, As a result, the language spoken by the local people has become a remote dialect, and the language of the foothills and the city is popular, which makes many locals dissatisfied, and Shu Han naturally needs to deal with it.

But fortunately, both Foothill City and Picheng are newly defeated, and they don't dare to put forward too many opinions on the side of Black Iron City, coupled with the strong strength shown by Black Iron City in the war, so that these people don't dare to say more nonsense, so that Shu Han simply and forcefully introduced the language change, let them start learning with the language of Huajin City as the goal, and set up a reward and punishment system, every street, set up a language teacher, teach after work in the evening, and then rate every week, People with good grades can get rewards, a barrel of oil, a load of food, etc., if the performance is not good, they have to deduct wages from the salary, in this way, to let these people learn the local language, after three months, many people have changed their language, especially the children, they have a strong learning ability, the speed of change is also the fastest, plus the life and beauty of Joaquin City is indeed much stronger than their original city, so they soon have a sense of belonging, and they are not excluded from these languages, At the same time, there are special language teachers in the school to teach, and they are the first group of people to change.

In addition, there are some young people, as for the elderly, Shu Han doesn't care about them, after all, it is too difficult to make the older generation change their speaking habits, even in modern times, there are many old people who speak in a rural voice, which is almost impossible to change. 520

Because of this, Shu Han does not want to waste the precious time of the old people, it is better to let them enjoy their old age in peace, do not toss them, as for others, under Shu Han's compulsory measures, they quickly changed their accents, at least they can communicate with the locals in the language of the locals, after all, everyone has a foundation in Mandarin, and it is not the same as Chinese and English, the gap is so big, plus the text is consistent, naturally it is much easier to communicate, and the two sides will soon be unified.

On the other hand, the construction of factories, these 40,000 people come in, naturally a huge labor force, and at the same time, more than 40 percent of these people have received about primary school education, and about 2,000 people have received university education, of course, the level of this university education is about the level of university education in the nineteenth century, but because the information is incomplete, it is between the nineteenth century and the twenty-first century, but in any case, these are very important talents, especially in electromagnetic and construction steel, As well as the three aspects of material science, there are some special talents in Foothill City and Picheng, which makes Du Erxin very happy, since the successful construction of the thermal power station, Du Erxin has also been prosperous all the way, from the original engineer to the current director of the Construction Bureau, managing all the engineering construction within the scope of Huajin City.

He immediately recruited these talents into his management team, and began to study the construction of trains, tall buildings, bridges, etc., and he did not look like a forty-year-old at all, but like a young man in his twenties, with inexhaustible energy.

Now Shu Han let him Kunpeng spread his wings and show what he has learned, so he will naturally keep the clouds open and see the moon, and obtain such benefits, so that Duerxin's career will glow with a second spring, coupled with all kinds of new technologies and high-tech talents gathered in Huajin City, which makes Duerxin also have a groundbreaking feeling, and is naturally excited.

In just one week, more than a dozen meetings were held, planning to build more than 30 bridges around Joaquin City, widening today's roads, and the construction of the railway. Therefore, Du Erxin suggested that the modern bridge building of reinforced cement concrete should be popularized throughout the territory, so that the entire Huajin City could be better connected together, and at the same time, the various areas in the Huajin City could also be more organically united, it was not easy to do this, but fortunately, a large number of experts and scholars were obtained from the foothills of the city and the city, including many experts in the bridge construction industry. There is no problem with that.

Experts say that there is no problem, Shu Han is naturally willing to believe them, as for widening today's roads, this should also be so, now most of the roads in Huajin City are mud roads, even in the city, the number of cement roads is very rare, only the main road will have, this is naturally inconvenient for traffic, as soon as it rains, the ground will become muddy water, horse-drawn carriages, ox carts, all trapped in it, very troublesome, and walking, there will be ruts on the ground, one is not careful, People fall when they walk by, and the road is in a very bad condition.

And driven by Du Erxin, that is, those who have just settled in Huajin City have begun to work hard, full of enthusiasm, this is not familiar with life, new to a place, naturally to show their own value, so that Shangguan appreciates himself, but there is another reason, is that Du Erxin is indeed a good leader, he respects the opinions of these experts very much, and gives them great rights, in the field they do not understand, everything is subject to their opinions, They were not prejudiced against them in the slightest because they were outsiders, or bullied them in the name of academic authority, which naturally made them very excited, knowing that even in the original city, repression in the workplace was common, if not worse.

Because the city is small, the production capacity is small, the whole city can invest in a few projects a year, and the experts who strive for it are more and more with the growth of the years, the typical monks are more porridge less, and now it is called involution, in this case, the annual grabbing of resources is a palace fight, and the experts are not daring to disturb it, and now in Huajin City, there are Du Erxin to help them, and Shu Han also gives them full freedom, within the scope of their own authority, try their best to help them, Let them make the best use of their talents, which naturally also closes their hearts.

The hearts of these scientific research talents are much simpler than others, as long as you let them do the work they like, they will be full of enthusiasm, Shu Han also takes care of them, and will not treat them differently because they are from other cities, it can be said that they are the fastest group of people to integrate into this collective.

In addition, factory workers, road construction craftsmen, etc., these jobs are so busy that Shu Han is non-stop work, for a month in a row, he only has time to go home to see his children and Fu Erlan, so he has been soaked in the office, or he is inspecting various construction sites, every day is very full, and he has to deal with all kinds of problems between citizens, and finally forced Shu Han to set up a neighborhood committee to manage, otherwise he has to die of exhaustion.

The December of the whole Huajin City is undoubtedly very lively, and after the autumn harvest is over, Shu Han will make use of these farmers and let them go to the city to work, first, they have nothing to do now, and secondly, they can make some money by working in the city, these seventy or eighty thousand laborers naturally cannot be wasted, so whether it is the construction of canals, or railway construction, etc., there are these migrant workers, and the same is true of the entire Black Iron City, this year is destined to be an extraordinary year, In the past, everyone shrunk in their own homes for the winter, and they had to worry about whether they would freeze to death, but now people are full of enthusiasm to build their new homes, even in the winter of the New Year, they are also working very hard, which makes Shu Han finally see a glimmer of the dawn of modern society, this is what a human civilization should look like, each of us will have a bright future, Shu Han said silently in his heart.
