Chapter 0352 Guozijian
After completely destroying the dock forts in various places and releasing the millions of people in the dock forts, Ran Min did not stop there, but made up his mind about those grass robbers who occupied the mountains as kings.
Grass bandits, that is, bandits, robbers, these guys occupy the mountains as kings, rob houses and houses, and many people have done all kinds of bad things. The governments of all dynasties have a deep headache for these grass robbers, but they are helpless, because these grass robbers are repeatedly banned, killed, and destroyed!
It's like troubled times, troubled times produce heroes, but troubled times also produce grass, and more.
In ancient China, whether it was a prosperous era or a troubled era, the grass cole still existed, no matter how the imperial court exterminated it, the grass cole was like a weed that could not be burned out, and it could not be extinguished, otherwise it could not be named "grass coward".
Of course, a large part of the reason why these grass cowards cannot be completely eliminated is that the world is impermanent, the common people can't survive anymore, the pressure from the government is too great, and the heavy forced labor and heavy taxes force them to "go to Liangshan"!
They are grasshoppers, and many people actually just want to mix in and live, that's all.
Ran Min understands this very well, but if these grass robbers are not eliminated, the Wei State will not be able to get more population and more living force, and these grass robbers occupy the mountains as kings, rob houses and houses, and block roads and rob the Li Shu are very annoyed, and even the merchants in the past have a headache and are afraid.
So when demolishing the dock forts in various places, Ran Min did not forget to send troops to eliminate the bandits and grass bandits in various places. Training is one thing, but more importantly, it is to prepare for the next change!
After Ran Min made such a move, the entire Wei State took on a new look!
Originally standing majestically in the Central Plains, all over the banks of the Yellow River, the dotted dock forts are gone, leaving only a ruined wall, a barren.
The grass robbers who used to haunt villages and towns, and often haunt the narrow mountain roads to rob houses and houses, are also gone, and many of them have either been killed, or have been arrested in prisons for labor camp because of the evil Guan Manying, but more grass robbers are still the same as ordinary Du Lishu, and they have been assigned to mulberry fields and lived their own lives.
In this way, the Juntian system has been successfully implemented, and the population of the whole country of Wei State, the real population has also been known by Ran Min, and it has been registered and widely publicized.
The total population of the entire Wei State is about 1.8 million, with a population of more than 13 million, of which the Han family has a population of only more than 5 million, while the population of Liuyi such as Xianbei, Xiongnu, and Qiang has reached nearly 8 million!
There are still so many people in the Central Plains, really, it has been beyond Ran Min's expectations.
Since the Eight Kings Rebellion at the end of the Jin Dynasty, there have been constant wars, disasters and man-made disasters, and the people have been displaced, and I don't know how many people have died, so in Ran Min's expectations, the population of the Central Plains can only be about 10 million, but it didn't come to be that there are 13 million!
Around this way, Ran Min's mood is also very heavy.
You must know that at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, due to the impact of large-scale wars, the population declined sharply, and it was conservatively estimated to be less than 8 million, which was not even as good as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
Cao Cao once described the tragic situation of the people in "Artemisia Crabs": "The white bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles." The people are left behind, and the thought breaks people's intestines".
In 280 AD, the Western Jin Dynasty was unified, and the population of the country recovered to about 16 million.
By the beginning of the 4th century, the Western Jin Dynasty had reached its heyday, and its population had recovered to about 40 million. However, the outbreak of the Eight Kings Rebellion then caused the population to plummet, and the lowest was only about 12 million.
But almost all of these people are Han Chinese!
Ran Min estimated that the population of the Han family in the Jin Kingdom in the south should not be more than three or four million.
In other words, the current population of the Han family is only 8 million!
It's tragic!
So Ran Min asked Wang Meng to discuss the matter of population.
"Jingluo, after this census, the data obtained shows that the population of our Great Wei now exceeds 13 million, and the number of households is 1.8 million, but the population of the Han family is only more than 5 million. The Hu people all hate and reject our Han people, how can they deal with themselves? ”
"You know, the Jin Dynasty was at its peak with a population of nearly 40 million, and now the widow wants to encourage childbearing, and encourage Hu and Han intermarriage, especially the Hu woman marrying a Han man, you can give a certain reward, in some farmland and education issues, the widow also wants to give the Han some preferential treatment, I don't know what you think?"
When Wang Meng heard this, he nodded and said, "This is all as it should be." The king does not mention these things, and after a while, the matter of encouraging fertility will also be put on the agenda. It's just that the king's preferential treatment of the Han people is likely to destroy the harmony between Hu and Han. ”
"The widow doesn't care about that." Ran Min waved his hand and said, "The Han people are the foundation of our life. I am a native of the Great Wei Kingdom. When Shile and Shihu were in power, the people of the country and the rest of the people of all ethnic groups were Liuyi, and now the widows did not reprimand or deliberately labor or expel the Hu people, which is already an extrajudicial favor to the Hu people! Since it is a widow who is in power, then the Han people must be given preferential treatment. ”
Now that Ran Min has decided, Wang Meng is not easy to refute.
"My lord, now the Juntian system is almost implemented. I thought that the establishment of education could be put on the agenda! ”
"What do you think?"
"Please spend money to build ten official schools in Yecheng first, and see the effect. Each place in this official school can accommodate thousands of students, regardless of Hu or Han, as long as they pass the test, they can enter and study. In the official school, the Four Books and Five Classics, the Six Arts of the Gentleman, and even the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, and even the cultivation of grains and the creation of iron tools can be established. But whoever has a skill can get their place and perform their own duties. ”
"Okay."
Wang Meng said: "In addition, I also asked the king to recruit all the private school teachers, and even blacksmiths and shipwrights with a skill, they can all be used as teachers to preach and solve doubts in the official school." And to a certain extent, the king can completely ban private schools and set up official schools across the country, so that all the talents under the command are not from the Wei State? ”
"Good!"
After thinking about it, Ran Min continued: "The widow also wants to establish a Guozijian, similar to the Taixue established by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, which is the highest institution of learning in my Great Wei Kingdom. Guozijian specially let the widowed sons, as well as the heirs of various princes and ministers, as well as outstanding talents from all over the world go to study. I don't know what the scene thinks? ”
"It couldn't be better." Wang Meng agreed.
"In addition, the king's plan to open up the mountains, build water conservancy, and improve farming, so that the fields will be opened up and the warehouses will be filled."
"Okay."
