Chapter 218: The Great Pit
"So, because you are against the founding of the country, you have the trust of His Majesty."
"Your family also hates you, so they pushed four or five or six and sold you to Your Majesty."
Cui Ling nodded with a wry smile, that's right, that's it.
Their family had pushed him out as a rebel.
In this way, not only can the rebels be eliminated and the family can be purified, but also a balance can be found between Li Shimin and their family, and the other families have to accept their love, and the Cui family sacrifices one of him to earn three gains, which is crooked.
The important thing is that Cui Ling can't resist yet, the family gave birth to him and raised him, just selling him, there is no danger to his life, if he still resists, it will be a bit inappropriate rhythm.
Li Kuan couldn't stop laughing after listening to Cui Ling's words, this guy is really funny.
Facing Li Kuan's smile, Cui Ling chose to respond expressionlessly.
Of course, it is not excluded that he is used to it.
After Li Kuan finished laughing, a haze flashed in his eyes, and he asked in a deep voice: "Tell me honestly, are you testing the bottom line of Your Majesty and the royal family for the sake of the family?" ”
"The population of Shuofang is not large, but there are 500,000, it is a large county town, and because it is a border county, the population quality is also very high, I don't believe that your family does not fancy here."
Cui Ling's eyes flashed with a fine light, looking at Li Kuan, who was suddenly awe-inspiring at this time, a serious look appeared on his expressionless face, and he said firmly: "I said that there is no problem on my Shuo Fang's account, do you believe it?" ”
"And I dare say I can be on the assessment every year."
Li Kuan smiled, looking at Cui Ling's quiet smile, the smile was very penetrating.
Cui Ling also laughed, smiling very happily, as if he had met a confidant.
Fang Yu next to her was confused, but she didn't dare to ask, for fear of interrupting the strange atmosphere of the two.
When the smile fell, Li Kuan said in a deep voice: "So, your family really moved the people of Shuofang away, leaving only the most basic number. ”
"Then fill Shuofang's output with your own output, and forcibly create an excellent Shuofang County."
Li Kuan understood when he heard Cui Ling say these three words on the account.
The northern family that went out really dared to do it.
The easiest way to evacuate a county or to make it impossible for the central government to do so is to complete the county's taxes and responsibilities.
For example, Shuofang County wants to supply 300,000 stone grain to the border army every year, and the family that empties Shuofang will make up for the 300,000 stone grain.
For example, if Shuofang's officially registered population is 500,000, they will pay 500,000 taxes to the central government.
As the population of Shuofang grows every year, they will increase their taxes every year, and everything makes sense.
But in fact, the 500,000 people in Shuofang may have been relocated with 300,000, leaving only 200,000.
Li Kuan guessed that the family would do this, but he didn't expect them to dare to do it.
Shaking his head and sighing, Li Kuan turned to look at Cui Ling with compassionate eyes, if the family really moved away 300,000 people, then Cui Ling would just wait for death.
No matter how nice the above is, if the disappearance of 300,000 people is really a fact, then he really only needs to wait for death.
Cui Ling saw Li Kuan's thoughts, and said with a smile: "I said that I am the result of a win-win situation, and it must be that no matter what happens, I will be fine." ”
Li Kuan shook his head and sighed: "I think with the greed of the family, there is a high probability that they will get rid of all the 500,000 people, and then secretly make up for you 200,000 other messy people." ”
"Probably except for some necessary places and positions where people will not move, the rest of the Han population will be relocated."
Li Kuan felt that with the character of the family, he would definitely not let go of the high-quality population of a border county like Shuofang County.
The population of the border county is good, and the quality is high, this is really a high-quality population that can farm and fight because it is at the border all year round, and has enough ability to resist pressure.
With this kind of population, how could a family that wants to go out and build a country let it go.
Cui Ling smiled weirdly: "If this is the result that His Majesty wants." ”
"What if Your Majesty wants them to empty Shuofang County and fill it with other messy populations?"
Hearing this, Li Kuan hurriedly looked left and right, and after making sure that there were no outsiders, he roared in a low voice: "Is Your Majesty crazy?" ”
Li Kuan couldn't think of any other adjectives.
The corners of Cui Ling's mouth twitched, why did you say what was in your heart.
Spreading his hands, Cui Ling said helplessly: "I don't know why this is happening, but Your Majesty did give me such an order." ”
"As for why Your Majesty did this, I guessed that I haven't guessed it for a year, do you think you can guess?"
Li Kuan frowned, he felt that Li Shimin would not do anything to give up the outstanding people of the border county for no reason.
But Li Shimin still did this, probably for only two reasons, one is that the family gave him a price that cannot be refused, and the other is that Li Shimin has his own plan.
Li Kuan felt that both were possible, but he felt that the latter was more suspicious.
The problem is that Li Kuan can't think of what Li Shimin's plan is.
"This kind of unexpected thing is really annoying."
Li Kuan couldn't help but mutter.
Cui Ling pouted, this guy really dares to say it.
However, probably only Li Kuan's identity can say such a big rebellious thing, and he is not afraid that Li Shimin will be held accountable.
After thinking about it for a long time, Li Kuan didn't expect what Li Shimin was planning, and in the end he had no choice but to give up.
"Then can you tell me what kind of population the family uses to fill the gap in Shuofang."
"I wondered, I have to be an inland Han."
Cui Ling smiled weirdly again.
"There were Turkic people who had been educated in the family's factories, there were also slaves bought from the south, savages caught in the steppe, and secondly, the Han Chinese people who had been replaced from the interior."
"And Your Majesty wants me to facilitate the marriage between them."
Hearing this, Li Kuan blurted out in a groan, and couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty probably wants to experiment with the proportion of the population needed for national integration." ”
This professional term makes Cui Ling confused, what is the proportion of the population needed for ethnic integration?
Li Kuan didn't explain, but the more he thought about it, the more likely it became.
And taking a county town as a test site and a population of hundreds of thousands as an experiment is very Li Shimin's style.
After all, it was the existence of the first emperor in the official history.
Li Kuan forcibly suppressed his inner thoughts, he just wanted to end this blind date quickly, and then hurry back to Dingxiang.
He felt that Shuofang was a big pit, and whoever fell into it was unlucky.
Glancing at Cui Ling with pity again, Li Kuan decided to pray for him in his heart.
The proportion of the population needed for ethnic integration is very difficult to handle.
If there is no result, Li Kuan estimates that Li Shimin will not make official transfers, which means that Cui Ling will have to live in Shuofang for the next few decades.
At the same time, Li Kuan estimated that Li Shimin also had an idea of how hard the officials under his command could work for their own hats.
Think about it, will the family replenish the population of 500,000 to Shuofang?
Definitely not.
So after the family leaves, what will happen to the missing population in Shuofang?
Of course, the officials of Shuo Fang have to find a way to make up for it themselves.
And if you want to stand up to the investigation of the people above, the newly supplemented population at least needs to be able to speak Datang dialect and live the customs of Datang.
In this case, it is necessary to test the ability of Shuofang officials.
