Chapter 159: The First Emperor's Perseverance
Looking at the Heshi Bi above the portal, this is the protection to enter this portal, and accurately tell everyone that he does not welcome people in the martial arts to enter.
In such a situation, if you have to come in, you are deliberately looking for death, and you are willing to fulfill it.
Piles of people kept pouring out of the portal, thousands of people coming out every minute of thousands of kilometers of portals.
But these people are completely different from the strong labor force that Zhao Wen thought, it can be said that there are men, women and children, and many of them are obviously a family, obviously, Zhu ignored all the displaced people at one time.
However, thinking that what he wanted was a million laborers, Zhu ignored the fact that what he sent over were some old, weak, sick and disabled, and looking at the other side of the portal, Zhao Wen's face had already begun to become gloomy.
This portal can be passed through each other, if Zhu Wuzhi thinks that he has left the first world of the world, he will deal with himself at will, and he really doesn't mind going over again to tell Zhu Wuzhi that he is very dissatisfied with him.
All the pride that Zhu ignored came from his martial arts, and when he didn't have this to rely on, Zhao Wen really wanted to see if he could still be as domineering as he was now.
The guards kept taking people into the distance, and the eunuchs of the East Factory put up a case and began to register.
Zhao Wen, an ordinary person who came from Daming, naturally wouldn't worry, but he wouldn't forget that Daming's readers are quite popular, in case there are a few readers in the middle, and something comes out, although he doesn't care, he can also create doubts in some people's hearts.
And those who are brought by themselves from the passage will be instilled with the consciousness of loyalty to themselves, but these people who come and go from the portal will not have such a consciousness, Zhao Wen naturally has to pay attention.
And these eunuchs of Dongchang just want to select all the scholars and try their best to avoid accidents.
On the other side, the deputy commander of the Shaofu has urgently arranged for someone to send a large amount of food over, not only these displaced people, but even the Jinyiwei and Dongchang people brought over this time have been hungry for several days.
On the other side, several members of the cabinet have arranged for the officials to take the first person to go to the place arranged by the cabinet, after all, His Majesty said that there are at least millions of people, and so many people are absolutely unable to arrange them all.
In the distance, scholars were constantly selected and sent to the other side, but many more were scattered by the Shaofu and the cabinet.
The crowd kept pouring out, more and more numerous, from day to night, Zhao Wen had been standing quietly in front of the huge portal and watching the crowd coming out, now the number of people had exceeded one million, but the people who came out still did not slow down in the slightest.
On the other side, such a huge portal, plus the emperor and the cabinet did not return for a day, the first emperor also followed, and also stood beside Zhao Wen, looking at the people who kept pouring out expectantly, but from time to time he looked at Zhao Wen with extremely complicated emotions.
Although he knew that this son was extraordinary, the huge portal in front of him and the people that kept pouring out were far beyond the concept of extraordinaryness in his heart.
For the First Emperor, population meant a sufficient number of soldiers and laborers, as well as the essence of a country, and now that Great Qin had suddenly increased by a million people, it was definitely a big deal.
But the son who grew up watching him grow up suddenly has such a magical ability, which can not only bring strong people from other worlds, but also bring people, and understand the reasons clearly, which is more important to the First Emperor than these people.
The current First Emperor would never think that Jinyiwei and Dongchang, the strong men who suddenly appeared beside Zhao Wen, were all taken refuge in Chudi.
On the first day, the crowd continued to pour in, and both the officials of the Ministry of Youth, the Cabinet officials, and even the local officials who were urgently summoned from all over the country to receive the people, were all excited.
Shaofu needs manpower to cultivate the land in the farm, and it also needs a lot of labor to build His Majesty's palace, and the emperor does not even have a palace now, which is definitely the biggest dereliction of duty of Shaofu.
As for the cabinet, needless to say, one more common people will have one more population to pay taxes, and one more tax revenue.
As for the officials in various localities, because population growth has always been the focus of assessing officials' abilities, and now that there are so many more people at once, there will be no problems in this year's assessment at least on population growth.
On the second day, the crowd was still pouring out, and although everyone was tired, they were still excited.
By the third day, the number of people pouring out of the city was not decreasing, but showing signs of increasing, and the faces of the young government, the cabinet, and the summoned officials were already showing bitterness, but they were still scattering the crowd and scattering it.
On the fourth day, seeing that there was still no sign of abating, even Zhao Wen's face began to look ugly.
At least more than one million people every day, for four days in a row, not to mention anything else, only to say that it is food for so many people, it is by no means an easy thing to take out at once.
"Is there a big disaster in the northwest of the Ming Dynasty, do you estimate how many people Zhu Wuzhi will send over?" Beckoning Wan Sanqian over, Zhao Wen asked in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, although there has been a drought in the northwest in the past few years, there will never be so many displaced people, but because of the drought, there are a lot of people who are extremely poor, and the minister estimates that Zhu Wuwei will send all the poor people who can be found around the portal to you!"
Speaking of this, Wan Sanqian roughly calculated before he said in a low voice: "If it is only the people of the surrounding counties plus the displaced people, it will be five million people at most, but if Zhu ignores and drives all the poor people in the northwest over, it will be at least ten million people!" ”
"I'll have all the food in the palace treasury delivered!" Hearing the tens of millions of foundations, the First Emperor's face changed, and he immediately turned around and began to arrange for the eunuchs beside him.
Such a quantity has far exceeded the current reception limit of Qindi, not to mention anything else, just a grain is a big trouble.
"Don't be anxious, the population is the foundation of the country, the more the better, if he dares to send it, we will dare to accept it, there will always be a way to properly resettle!"
The face of the First Emperor was resolute, although like Zhao Wen, he had also been standing at the door for a few days without rest, but there was no trace of fatigue in his eyes, but he brought out a little passion after encountering the challenge.
"Rice can be grown four times a year in Chudi, and I have already started planting a large number of them when I was in Jiujiang, and even pumpkins and potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn have been spread throughout the territory of Chudi, even if he sends a lot, Daqin has enough food to accommodate these people!"
Zhao Wen had already decided that if Zhu ignored the need to really send tens of millions of people, it was a big deal that he would work harder, turn into a porter, and use the stone gate to bring grain from Chudi.
Anyway, there are ten sea ships to be sent to Chudi, all of them should be on the way, and at his current speed, he can run one round trip a day!
