Chapter 342: Crown Prince Zen, Planning Brazil!
Twenty-six years of Jian'an.
Oh no
Now it should be regarded as the first year of Zhang Wu.
May.
Liu Chan was officially crowned crown prince and the heir of the Han dynasty.
The original prince's mansion has now become the East Palace.
A subordinate official of the Prince's Mansion has now become a subordinate official of the East Palace.
And Liu Bei's Hanzhong palace has also become a palace, which should be regulated in accordance with the regulations of the Luoyang Emperor.
Of course
It takes a lot of manpower and material resources to build a large number of buildings, and now under the rule of the Han Dynasty, the world has not yet been unified, and the Han family has not yet been revived.
All walks of life are in ruins, and naturally there is no spare money to repair the palace.
Therefore, it was just a simple transformation of the palace, but fortunately, he was originally the foundation of the palace, although it was only a simple transformation, but the royal style still came out all of a sudden.
Now.
Chengdu Imperial Palace.
Shangshu Taichung.
Liu Chan sat on the main seat, looking at the reports from all over the table, his face expressionless.
"It seems that during this time, the homeless people have gathered a lot."
The aftermath of the Great War in Hanzhong last year was not over, and many people fled into the mountains in order to escape from forced labor and taxes, and after Liu Chan issued an edict to rest with the people and divide the fields and land, the people who were hiding in the mountains really came out.
In just one or two months, there are nearly 100,000 more people in Yizhou.
It can be seen that Yizhou is not without people, but the people are not in the hands of the government, either in the hands of local tyrants, or they are hidden in the mountains.
"His Royal Highness's previous policy was useful, but the people who could attract it may only be these 100,000 people, and there will be more people who will go down the mountain in the future, but there will not be more."
Once a person has adapted to local life, it is difficult to change.
Or rather, they don't want to change.
Life in the mountains is not easy, but I have adapted, and it is actually okay compared to being forced under the mountain or something.
Not to mention that so many people have walked in the mountains, and those who remain in the mountains have a better life.
"Even if you want to be a mountain citizen, you must also pay taxes and serve in the military."
Hiding in the mountains can be freed?
"Another edict, the people in the mountains, even if they want to stay on the mountain, they must also go down the mountain, register and make a register, compile the households, if there is no one who is registered, after ten months, there will be officials to come to the door and arrest slaves!"
No taxes are paid.
What's the use of you alive for my big man?
All of them are reduced to slaves, and there is a shortage of people to cultivate this large place in the Chengdu Plain!
"This"
Liu Chan's words made Zhuge Liang and Fa face to face.
"Your Highness, reducing the people to slaves, this will be too much" Zhuge Liang had a hesitant look on his face, stepped forward at this moment, and asked.
Liu Chan smiled lightly and asked, "Does the prime minister know how much a sturdy slave is worth in Chengdu today?" ”
Value?
Zhuge Liang, as the prime minister, knows everything about the news from all sides, and at this moment he immediately said: "The price of slaves in Chengdu is probably as much as 60,000. ”
A month ago, the price was eighty thousand.
The reason why it came down was because the first batch of slave hunters who went to Nanzhong gradually came back with slaves.
It greatly alleviated the slave vacancy near Chengdu.
But the number of slaves brought by the first batch of slave catchers to Nanzhong was only a thousand, which did not make any waves at all, and only curbed the price of slaves a little.
As long as a large number of slaves do not come in for a month, the price will continue to rise.
"A sturdy slave is 60,000, this is still a barbarian who can't farm, if it is a slave who can farm, the price will be higher, go to the mountains to capture these people, I'm afraid that the slave hunting team will gladly go to it, as for the prime minister's worries, it is groundless."
With a sigh of relief, Liu Chan continued: "Now is the world of great controversy, the puppet Wei occupies the Central Plains, there are many people, we want to compete with it, naturally we must use all the methods that can enhance the national strength, otherwise, how can we defeat the puppet Wei, revive the Han dynasty, and return to the old capital?" ”
To reduce the people to slaves is not to reduce all the people to slaves, but to reduce the disobedient people to slaves.
The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister.
Since he is a common man of the Han Dynasty, he cannot escape the fate of being exploited.
The great cause of reviving the Han Dynasty, how can there be such a person?
For these people who escape when they struggle, and come to enjoy the fruits of victory when they win in the future, Liu Chan will never tolerate them!
"Your Majesty thinks that what His Highness said is very true."
Fa Zheng stepped forward slowly, and said to Liu Chan: "In the world of great contention, there is no room for the slightest love of children, and now that the land is less cultivated, it is natural to find out the people hiding in the mountains and forests, as for why they are degraded as slaves, it is because if they are not demoted to slaves, the slave hunting team will not enter the mountains to capture them, relying only on the official army, and the strength is not caught." ”
Fa Zheng is still in the position of Shang Shuling, and the first prime minister of this Han Dynasty has not been seated, and Fa Zheng is still a little tired in his heart.
But
Prime Minister, Prime Minister.
It's not as powerful as my Shangshutai!
It's not
Now the place where state affairs are handled is not in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but in Shangshutai.
"Regardless of this matter, Prime Minister, the matter of the Academy of Sciences, do you have any concern?"
Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "When spring ploughing, in accordance with the requirements of the Academy of Sciences, the cultivation method, cultivation tools, and agricultural fertilizer are all promoted. ”
Change the method of farming, improve the cultivation equipment, apply farm fertilizer, and breed good seeds.
Spring ploughing has been completed for more than a month, and the results can already be seen.
"The methods of the Academy of Sciences have been written into the agricultural book and distributed to the counties and counties to guide farming."
The agricultural book, which had been written for several months, was finally completed, and some of the achievements of the Academy of Sciences were naturally written into it.
"Has the crops changed this month?"
Zhuge Liang knew the changes in Liu Chanwen, and immediately said: "Compared with previous years, after having agricultural fertilizer, it is indeed growing better, and the Dasi Agricultural Officials estimate that this year's output may be more than one or two percent compared with previous years." ”
One or two percent?
Liu Chan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Only one or two percent?" ”
Seeing that Liu Chan's face was particularly dissatisfied, Zhuge Liang immediately said: "One or two percent, which is already a lot, one or two percent more than one or two percent of a piece of land, my Han has tens of millions of pieces of land, which adds up to a huge number." ”
But only one or two percent is added, which is still less.
This farmhouse fertilizer looks like the effect is average.
If you can make fertilizer, it may be able to increase the output of the real thing.
And if the good varieties can be bred by selection, the increase in yield will be even more.
But some of these things take time.
Fa Zheng also said on the side: "As soon as His Royal Highness Academy of Sciences was established, it has achieved remarkable results, the use of agricultural fertilizer, increased a lot of output, and all kinds of agricultural tool improvements, so that the efficiency of the people's cultivation has been greatly improved, and the original family can only cultivate twenty or thirty acres, but now it can cultivate forty or fifty acres." ”
In addition to the improvement of military strength, the improvement of national strength is naturally due to the improvement of productive forces.
"There are several copper mines and a few iron mines in the south, so the matter is handed over to the prime minister to be responsible for mining the copper and iron ore."
Zhuge Liang immediately received the order.
"In this Yizhou, there are many salt fields, but only the salt fields in Guangdu have adopted the method of boiling salt in local gas, and now Guangdu produces salt, and the output has increased more than tenfold. It can even be sold to the Wei State, and if the rest of the places can also learn from the experience of the Guangdu Salt Farm and increase the output of the salt farm, then it will greatly open the source for our Han Dynasty and solve the problem of lack of food in the territory. ”
Salt is a necessity of life.
If you control the salt, you will hold a way of wealth.
It's still a steady stream of kinds.
"This matter will be handed over to Shangshutai to be responsible, and strive to improve the methods and increase the output of salt farms in various places within the year."
Shang Shu ordered the law to bow to Liu Chan and said, "Your Majesty receives the order!" ”
After instructing some more things and dealing with relevant government affairs, the sky was already dark.
It's time for a break.
Coming out of Shangshutai, Liu Chan took a breath of fresh air.
Not to mention being the emperor, now Liu Chan is the crown prince, doing this thing of supervising the country, and there are so many things every day that he has to sit on Shangshutai for four or five hours.
It can be described as a real ninety-nine-six.
got on the prince's chariot at the gate of the palace, Liu Chan was just about to go to the palace, and he didn't want to be outside the chariot, but a voice stopped him.
"Your Highness, slow down."
Liu Chan opened the curtain of the car and looked at it, but it was Zhuge Kongming.
"The prime minister has something to order?"
Zhuge Liang smiled lightly and said, "Your Majesty has something to say to His Highness. ”
Some words?
Liu Chan nodded and said, "Please get in the car." ”
After a while, Zhuge Liang got into the prince's chariot.
The chariots and horses of the Han Dynasty include Yuming, Chengyu, Jingen, Anche, Liche, Ploughing Car, Rong Che, Hunting Car, Carpooling, Green Car, Soap Car, Lady Anche, Big Driver, Law Driver, Small Driver, Light Car, Ambassador Car, Small Envoy Car, Car-carrying Car, Guide Car "one or twenty kinds.
In the Han Dynasty, the carriages and horses were divided into many different levels according to the way of riding, the car dealership, the type and number of animals, the carriage and horse ornaments, and the application occasions.
The Son of Heaven drove six horses, the princes drove four, the doctors three, the scholars two, and the concubines one.
In the case of car covers, the difference in grades is reflected in the color and material, with a white cloth cover of less than 200 stones, a soap cloth cover of more than 300 stones, and a soap cloth cover of more than 1,000 stones.
Liu Chan's chariot can be said to be a bird gun for a bird cannon.
From the original carriage, it has become an car, Zhu liner, green cover, Jinhua flea, Haiwen, painting Yi Wen, Jin Tu Wumo, four horses pulling, the space is a lot larger.
Zhuge Liang was dressed in the prime minister's robe, and sat opposite Liu Chan.
This prime minister of the Han Dynasty began to have wrinkles on his forehead, although they were not obvious, but they were already there.
After becoming prime minister, Zhuge Liang immediately exerted his basic skills.
Arrange all the affairs of the Han Dynasty in an orderly manner, even if it is a very small matter, you have to take care of it personally.
It can be seen that his energy is vigorous and his attitude towards work is rigorous.
There are such people to work, which is also the reason why Liu Chan can get off work on time.
If not, I'm afraid I will have to work overtime every day.
"I wonder what the prime minister taught me?"
An Che gurgled and turned, slowly heading towards the East Palace.
Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang sat in it, but they didn't seem to shake.
"It's not enough, I heard that His Highness is going to use troops against Brazil?"
This news is also no secret.
Liu Chan nodded.
"Pasir County is an important place in Yizhou, and its mountain people are hundreds of thousands, all of which are not used by our Han Dynasty, but have repeatedly caused chaos, and they must be pacified!"
Brazil is a good place, and naturally it has to be made up of all the people.
The current Han Dynasty, according to the land of two states.
Jingzhou and Yizhou.
These two states are vast and sparsely populated, and they need a steady stream of people to come and farm.
Not the people, but also slaves.
The most important reason for Liu Chan to go to Brazil was to plunder the population.
It will take at least 10 years for a new group of people to grow up, form combat effectiveness, and increase productivity.
But for Liu Chan, more than ten years have been too long.
He couldn't wait that long.
The fastest, of course, is to plunder the population.
Now in Yizhou, Brazil has the most people who can plunder the population.
"The barbarians are rampant and warlike, how is Your Highness going to manage it?"
In the land of Sanba, there are three barbarians.
In the land from the ditch of Brazil County to the Langzhong County of Ba County, there are people entrenched, also known as 'Ban Yu Man'.
Fuling County and its surrounding areas, there are Tho people entrenched, also known as 'Di Jun Man'.
Qianwei County to Fuling County Yanjiang has a dragon, a badger inhabited, there is no monarch, with the cave to live.
Among these three forces, Yiren is the strongest and has the largest population.
There was also the most contact with the Han Chinese.
"Naturally, it's a faction, a faction!"
"Oh?"
Zhuge Liang's eyes lit up and asked, "Which faction to fight, which faction to pull?" ”
Liu Chan smiled lightly and said, "Whoever is weak pulls whom, who is strong beats whom." ”
As a later generation, Liu Chan knows a lot about the great lack of great virtue in Great Britain.
There are many ways in which he dealt with the colonies that can be used as references.
"There is a feud between the Ban Yu Barbarians and the Lijun Man, and the two clans have been attacking for a hundred years, and they can use the contradictions between the two clans to obtain the Brazilian barbarians."
This time, if you kill the Lijun Barbarian tribe, you can sell the captives to the Han people~
A thousand dollars, the benefits are great.
The next time the Emperor kills the Ban Barbarian tribe, he will be able to sell the captives to Liu Chan.
One is still a thousand dollars, and Tong Su is not bullied.
Let the barbarians consume themselves first, and when they are almost consumed, then send troops to suppress them.
In the process of suppressing them, we can also buy a group of leading party and use military households to encircle them, so that they can form an army of their own.
Kill the barbarians with barbarism, govern barbarians with barbarians, why do you have to do it yourself?
After listening to Liu Chan's idea, Zhuge Liang immediately gasped in his heart.
"Your Highness's idea is really amazing, but if you think about it, there is a good chance of success."
Barbarians are short-sighted.
When the money is placed in front of them, they will be moved.
Besides, isn't it a win-win situation to exchange the enemy for money?
They win twice.
Of course
If you think so, you don't know that Liu Chan is silently bleeding them.
When the blood is dry, it is time to eat the meat.
"Then how will Your Highness govern Badi?"
Fight a faction, pull a faction.
This method, Zhuge Liang felt novel.
But if you want to govern a place, you can't just fight it.
"The men will either become barbarians of the Han army, or become slaves, and then the problem will be solved for the people of Badi."
When the people are gone, there will naturally be no turmoil.
"If Your Highness wants to do this, I'm afraid that the people of Badi will not obey the order."
If the handling of Badi could be so simple and crude, then this problem would have been solved long ago.
"I wonder what the prime minister has to say?"

Ask for a commuter pass!
