Chapter 615: Separate Steps
Regarding Liu An's words, Huo Gang was naturally noncommittal, and it was not a matter of urgency to absorb such a large number of people, but for the current Han people, in fact, they were almost fully prepared.
Dahan has enough food to feed such a large number of people, so he is not afraid of how many people are integrated, not to mention the current arable land area of Dahan, and the grain produced by the effect of the current spiritual spring water of Dahan is almost equivalent to the high-yield grain of later generations.
And these grains alone in the Tarim River basin plus the two locations in the Ganges River basin can feed at least one billion people, in this era, the world's population combined is estimated not to have this number, so Huo Gang is not worried at all, not to mention that he has more places in his hands.
Not to mention anything else, in the future, the two river basins can use a spiritual spring water quota, plus the Ob River on the north side of the Han River, or the Volga River will be included in the rule of the Han Dynasty, and if Persia is taken in the future, the two river basins can also be considered.
As long as there is spiritual spring water, these can become the main grain producing areas, so there is no shortage of food in Dahan.
However, at present, Dahan still needs a certain amount of accumulation, mainly to accumulate basic resources, manpower and material resources, and the material is mainly the future railway construction, road construction and other materials, and the cement plant has begun to investigate all nearby locations such as the Caspian Sea.
Nationwide statistics can be used to build large cement plants, in order to build factories directly in the future, and start to transfer these materials nearby, then it will be more convenient to build a new location in the future.
Stockpiling of supplies for the railway, for example, has also begun, mainly in the preparation of a second large steel plant near the Caspian Sea, which is even more advanced than that of the industrial city.
The steel plant in the industrial city was mainly because of technical problems in the early stage, so although its area is large, its technology is not advanced, but now the new steel plant is different, and its technology and other aspects will become more advanced.
But to be honest, now Huo Gang wants to know when his big man can toss out the computer, in fact, the research and development of the computer is not too difficult, there is no way to sort out the transistors at the beginning, then the whole tube.
Of course, Huo Gang doesn't understand these aspects at all, but he can roughly tell them the principles of computers and so on, and Huo Gang is already writing relevant books on these aspects, and when the time comes, give them to these people and let them develop them.
In addition to these materials is the reserve of talents, for example, as Liu An asked, about the reserve of officials, this is the most important thing for Dahan now, and the number of officials in Dahan is so large that it is estimated that Li Shimin will be worried when he sees it, but it is also officially because of so many officials that Dahan's current efficiency is extremely high.
And because it is a brand new government, Huo Gang is willing to give these young people a chance, as long as they have that ability, they can be put in charge of more important things, so as more and more people receive training, in fact, there are a lot of officials in various regions of Dahan now.
In the future, if we take all of Persia plus the Arabian Peninsula at once, there will be enough officials to rule over these populations, and there will not be much chaos.
But this is also a very critical matter, Huo Gang's incident this time is not only the launching ceremony of the first batch of steel warships of the Han Dynasty, he also has to visit most areas of the country, such as some outposts located in the northern frontier of the Han Dynasty, the personnel of the northern frontier of the Han Dynasty are not very many, because there is no enemy in the north and east, so there is only a regiment of defense troops deployed far away.
These troops are far away from the places where the population gathers, Huo Gang has to go over to see them, this time the trip will probably last a few months, and Li Lizhi is also busy this year, she also has to replace Huo Gang to comfort many people and some departments, such as teachers, such as doctors, etc., which are closely related to society.
After staying with Liu An for a while, Huo Gang left directly.
Time passed quickly, and when Zizhulin Harbor began to get a little cooler, the weather had already entered winter, and Huo Gang had finally finished most of his work and returned to Yumen Pass.
In the past few months, Huo Gang has only come back twice.
However, when Huo Gang returned to Yumen Pass, he hadn't waited for him to enter the city, "Drive!" A crisp cheer came from a distance, and it was estimated that the sound was at most a little girl of five or six years old, and sure enough, when Huo Gang raised his eyes and looked over, on the official road in the distance, a total of five horses were galloping in this direction at high speed.
At the foreground was a pure white pony, which was only a month or two old, but it was very fast, and on its body was a small one, dressed in black, but with a red-skinned little creature galloping in this direction.
The four knights who followed behind her were four guards, seeing this figure, Huo Gang couldn't help but hold his forehead, I hope Li Shimin will not make trouble for himself in the future, this person who came over is naturally not someone else, but a son, that is, Princess Jinyang.
The five horses soon arrived in front of Huo Gang's team, Huo Gang was not riding in a carriage, but riding on a red cloud, watching the little guy rush towards him at high speed, Huo Gang could only stop his steps, to be honest, he didn't expect his son to let go completely...... It's going to be like this, even though my son was quite eccentric when he was a child.
But now...... Huo Gang didn't know how to describe it, when the two horses approached quickly, the white pony began to slow down, and before the white horse slowed down to a certain point, the son on the back of the horse actually stood up directly from the horse, and her feet stood directly on the saddle.
When the two horses approached a certain distance, the son directly shouted excitedly: "Brother-in-law, I'll pull it." After speaking, she jumped up directly from her horse and jumped into Huo Gang's arms.
Huo Gang was taken aback by her, but fortunately, Huo Gang's body was no longer comparable to ordinary people, and he caught the son who jumped from the horse directly in the air.
"Wow! Brother-in-law, I knew you could catch me, brother-in-law, you are finally back, I miss you so much. The son shouted, and he didn't avoid suspicion, and directly gave Huo Gang a hug.
Huo Gang hugged her with one hand and couldn't laugh a little, "Come down, believe it or not, if you let the queen mother see your scene, she will punish you again." ”
"Hehe, brother-in-law, it's okay if you don't tell the queen mother, did you bring me a gift?" The son directly reflexively rode in front of Huo Gang's saddle, that is, the part of Hongyun's neck close to his torso, and faced Huo Gang face to face, and then asked with a smile.
Hongyun let out a protesting hiss in front, and Jin Yang directly slapped Hongyun's neck with his backhand without saying a word: "Don't call Hongyun, be good, if you call again, believe it or not, I asked my brother-in-law to give you to me, and then I will take you to Datang!" Hum! ”
Red Cloud: "......"
Whether Hongyun could understand Huo Gang didn't know, but it didn't dare to scream.
Huo Gang said with some amusement: "There is nothing in the place I went to this time, how can I bring you a gift?" There are no gifts. ”
"Ah, no gifts......" Jin Yang was a little disappointed when she heard that there were no gifts, but she quickly became excited again: "It doesn't matter if there are no gifts, as long as you come back, brother-in-law, it's okay, hehe, it's too boring for me not to be there." ”
Huo Gang looked at Jin Yang's little expression, and he said helplessly: "You little guy, don't I know you yet?" You don't miss me at all, are you because the queen mother is too good at you when I'm away? ”
"Hehe, it's not." Jin Yang rolled his eyes, and then said coquettishly.
"Okay, okay, sit down, otherwise, wait for the people in the city to see it in a while, what kind of system will it be." Huo Gang said with a straight face.
"Yes!" Jin Yang shouted with a grin, then grabbed Huo Gang's arm with both hands and stood up again.
However, she didn't go back, but turned around and sat directly in front of Huo Gang, just like sitting in Huo Gang's arms.
Huo Gang was a little helpless, but he didn't care, after all, Jinyang was just a child, saying that he was Huo Gang's sister-in-law, but Huo Gang had always raised her as a girl.
It's just that Jinyang can become like this, Huo Gang is also a little surprised, after Jinyang came, Huo Gang basically gave her and Empress Changsun to drink spiritual spring water every day, of course, it was extracted directly from him.
Empress Changsun is very good on her side, according to Sun Simiao's statement, it has basically returned to normal after coming to Dahan for a month, and there is no need for Huo Gang to worry, Empress Changsun at that time was indeed a lot ruddy, and she ate more things every day, and she was very energetic every day.
As for Jinyang, I don't know if it's because of the child, her recovery speed is faster than that of the eldest grandson queen, and after about half a month, she can clearly feel that she is already like an ordinary child, she has become infinitely energetic every day, and her body is much more flexible than before.
At that time, Huo Gang didn't care and began to teach her to ride a horse, who knew that since then it has been out of control, horse riding naturally cannot be taught in the city, naturally it is necessary to go outside the city, and many times later, Jin Yang went out directly with a few disguised guards.
Then I don't know when Jinyang met some herdsmen's children of the same age, when did these children see such a cute little girl in Jinyang? In order to look powerful in front of Jinyang, many children showed some unique skills similar to equestrian performances in later generations, such as standing on horses.
These children are the children of herdsmen, although these herdsmen have now started farming, but their work on horseback has not been left behind, so these children have basically grown up on horseback.
Huo Gangke did not forget that some of the herdsmen's children in the grasslands of Inner Mongolia in his previous life, when the herdsmen were basically about three years old, after taking them on horseback, they dared to give them a measure similar to a seat belt, and then put them on horseback and dared to let them ride and play by themselves, not to mention this era.
When the children of the basic herdsmen's family were five or six years old, they were already extremely proficient in horseback riding, and the children's balance was better than that of adults, especially these little ones who often exercised, so Jinyang didn't know when he learned this.
Even Huo Gang was a little surprised, fortunately, Jinyang was also born in the royal family, and he was taught the etiquette and body in the palace since he was a child, otherwise...... Long-term horseback riding is easy to become a loop, many herdsmen are looplegs, and many of the herdsmen's children are also.
Fortunately, Jinyang shouldn't be like this, but ...... Now in Jinyang, it is estimated that Li Shimin will not dare to recognize it when he sees it.
It's too wild...... I don't know if this is the opposite of everything, since I was a child in the palace, because of my poor health, it is almost impossible for Li Shimin and Empress Changsun to let her do any strenuous exercise, and they almost don't let her go out to play, and now once she is released...... Like a wild child.
At least Huo Gang knew that she had gone with those children to dig birds, caught fish in the river, chased rabbits and foxes on the grassland, dared to do anything, and even her skin was a lot darker, but fortunately, in winter, she would become white again.
However, although Jinyang's temperament has become wild, her body has become extremely healthy, her height has jumped a point, probably reached one meter three five, this height is definitely tall among girls in her grade, and it is estimated that even many boys may not be taller than her.
In the future, it is estimated that the size of Jinyang, Huo Gang, feels that it can reach 1.7 meters, which is about the same in this era...... That's really high.
After coming to this world, Huo Gang found that in fact, the height of the ancients was not so short, and there were many tall people, of course, the average height is definitely not as good as that of later generations, if the nutrition can't keep up, how can the height be high.
But in the rich family, in fact, the height is not short.
With Jinyang, Huo Gang told her some interesting things he encountered on the road, and then returned all the way back to the Chief's Mansion, and when Huo Gang entered the Chief's Mansion, he saw that Empress Eldest Sun and Li Lizhen were already waiting at the door.
Seeing Jin Yang coming back together in Huo Gang's arms, although Empress Changsun still had a smile on her face, she glared at Jin Yang fiercely, and then looked at Huo Gang with a smile again.
"Queen Mother, I'm back." Huo Gang turned over and dismounted, and then said with a smile.
"It's good to come back, everything is going well this time, right?" Empress Eldest Sun asked with a smile.
"Smooth, that is, the conditions in some places are relatively difficult, and it is estimated that the civil affairs department will have to strengthen their logistical supplies for the soldiers in these places." Huo Gang said with a smile.
"I don't understand these, but it's good to come back, the family has prepared a banquet for you, you and Lizhi must have a lot to say, I'll go back first, Jinyang, come here!" Empress Eldest Sun first smiled and finished talking to Huo Gang, and then glared at Jin Yangdao.
