Chapter five hundred and twentieth it's over to you

Satuegum had a comprehensive conception and plan for the collective system, but the greatest difficulty in realizing its conception and plan was to abolish the old slave and caste tribal systems.

In the past, the leaders of the tribe held the right to mating, and most of the tribesmen were direct descendants of the leaders. It was not so easy to split up their families. Even Langri Lunzan did not dare to force them to change. Yu Qiu needed to help Satuegum deal with it personally.

Before coming, Satuegum had thought of a strategy. The direct tribes of each tribe could own their original property. If they wanted to separate their families, they could separate their families. If they didn't separate them, they could live their own industries, but they would not want to enjoy exclusive public resources and exclusive rights to foreign trade.

In addition, all slaves from other surnames must be given to the collective and re-entered households. If they do not obey, they will lose all their power to trade with foreign countries.

Don’t underestimate this power. Once they are subject to economic sanctions from the Xia Kingdom, they will soon return to the days when they were unable to eat.

Because the things they made can only be realized in the hands of various industries in Xia State. If the Xia State does not buy their things, their things will be worthless.

In the current social environment, they even rode horses and took swords and went out to catch up with them, and the garrisons of any military base in Xia State could destroy them.

When Yu Qiu was about to arrive at the welcoming points of the Tubo tribes, he stopped and the children of the tribes who were studying in Mingshan Academy went to the tribes to convince them.

If it is not necessary, Yu Qiu naturally wants to keep a harmonious relationship with them.

In one day, when Yu Qiu took hundreds of photos around the snow-capped mountains, the children of each department came back to repay Yu Qiu one after another.

Overall, all ministries agreed to the reform, but they made many requirements, nothing more than grassland, resources, etc.

After all, in the past few years, they have made money by selling these things to Xia Guo.

Yu Qiu discussed with Satuegum, agreed to some conditions that did not affect the overall situation, and rejected some excessive requests. This matter was basically finalized.

Moreover, there will be no rebound in the future. This is Yu Qiu's last voice. There is no need for tribes that do not abide by anything.

Anyway, erasing a few disobedient tribes was almost useless for the Xia army, which was equipped with hot weapons throughout the army.

Therefore, when Yu Qiu brought people to the camp that the Tubo people had set up in advance, all the tribal leaders respectfully saluted him and expressed their obedience to the reform results he announced.

"His Majesty the Human Emperor, Lang Ri Lunzan was seriously ill and bedridden, and he really couldn't come here to greet him. I entrusted me to express his apology to you. At the same time, I brought me this petition." Li Jiancheng handed a silk book with Lang Ri Lunzan's hand seal to Yu Qiu in front of all the tribe leaders.

Yu Qiu nodded, opened the silk book and handed it to Satuegum and said, "Tell him his will on behalf of your father!"

Satuegum took the silk book and looked at it. He expressed his expression in excitement and read the words of Langri's praise to all the tribe leaders.

The general idea is: Your Majesty Yu Qiu is the leader of the human race in the world. His holy light shines on every Tubo person, allowing the Tubo people to reproduce freely on the plateau, eat and wear warmly. He is the great savior and great benefactor of the Tubo people. The Tubo people should welcome the arrival of the Supreme Human Emperor with the most noble etiquette and obey all the arrangements of the Supreme Human Emperor for the Tubo people.

After Satuegum finished reading this passage, everyone stroked his chest and bowed to Yu Qiu, expressing their approval of these words, and waiting for his arrangements.

"I won't say much cliché, and you may not understand it even if you say it. Now, I have accepted the appointment of Satuegum as the general government official of the Tubo region, Zhou Jing as the chief instructor of the Tubo region, and Chen Zhu as the chief construction officer of the Tubo region..."

A series of resignations were read out by Yu Qiu, and the leaders of Tubo were confused.

It turned out that there was no Zanpu in Tubo in the future, all of them were officials, and these officials still needed to be appointed by His Holiness Emperor.

Although finance and taxation are still independent, it is not owned by the Chief Consul.

The general consul only received a certain basic salary and performance salary in Tubo. Although this money is paid out from taxes, it only accounts for a small part. Even if all the salaries of all the ruling officials are paid, there should be a lot of surplus in the taxes, and these surpluses can only be used for the livelihood of Tubo.

Of course, there are more things that these tribal leaders cannot understand. For example, in the future, they will do their own business and belong to private industries. If they operate private industries, they need to pay commercial taxes according to the unified standards of the coalition ruling alliance.

The output of the government collectively organized industries will be operated and sold externally, and will enjoy tax incentives, agricultural products and even tax exemptions. This means that the things produced by the government collectively organized will have a price advantage over their private output in the future.

A slight tilt of the balance may lead to a change in the flow of benefits.

Therefore, even if Yu Qiu now distributes them a lot of assets, their lives may not be easy. It is inevitable that they have many competitors with government backgrounds and thinning of industry profits.

The only thing that made them more grateful was that the descendants who spent a lot of money to study at the Mingshan Academy of Xiaguo all entered the official system to serve as senior officials, which gave them a lot of voice in disguise.

However, this is considered a waste of joy, because under the new system, the right to speak is not in the hands of a certain official, but in the hands of all the people.

Yu Qiu just roughly explained the official structure, and half an hour passed. At this point, Yu Qiu's work was actually half completed. What should I do next depends on Satuegum's.

A large map of the entire Tubo region was spread out by Satuegum in the center of the banquet venue, which clearly marked all the mountains and rivers of the Tubo Plateau and all the canyons suitable for people to live in.

This is the first time that many tribal leaders have seen the landform of Tubo in such a whole. They even don’t know that there are so many places suitable for farming, grazing and living.

Allocation of houses, farming tools, fields, and pastures to all collective organizations will be the first job that Satuegum will do.

Simply, excluding the direct branches of major tribes, the collective households he finally needed to resettle were only about 1.2 million. Based on the five-person household, it was only 240,000 households.

According to two hundred households and one village, these people will be grouped into 1,200 villages, and in every ten villages, one town, one hundred and twenty towns, one county, one county, one county, and in every four counties, one prefecture, three prefectures.

In other words, under Satuegum, there are three state-level consuls, and these three are from Xia.

Soon, Satuegum pointed out the location of the first collective village to everyone, which will be a demonstration village, and it will be designed and built by Qiu himself.

Xia Guo’s construction team soon found a safe and flat land in a valley near the lake as the address of the village and began to clean up the site.

The kiln factory that burns bricks, tiles and cement was determined after a long time in Xiaguo's technical craftsmen wandered around the valley. For these Xiaguo craftsmen who didn't know how many houses they built and how many kiln factories they built, all the work seemed to be easy.

In less than three days, Satuegum brought three villages, and about 600 households arrived here. Although these people were all poor and had no assets except a few cattle and sheep that were used as food rations, their arrival instantly enriched the labor force here.

The scene of thousands of people burning bricks, tiles, and cement is very lively, and the construction of the village is also taken at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In fact, in Satuegum's view, it is a bit too extravagant to build brick and tile houses for these collective households, but Yu Qiu felt that either they would not do it or do it well. Only by building the houses strong and beautiful and able to shelter the wind and rain can they settle down and do a good job in production. Only those Tubo people who have not yet been incorporated into collective households want to blow the spring breeze of reform to their own places.

I thought that Yu Qiu didn't need to do it myself. After the teams spent about a week of adaptation, Yu Qiu set out for Luzhecheng because the top of the house was almost dead.

"You asked me to come to Tubo, but I wouldn't have asked me to help Langri Lunzan pass on a silk book!" Li Jiancheng asked Yu Qiu on the ox cart to the Luoshecheng.

"Of course not, where is your fourth brother Li Yuanji?" Yu Qiu said with a smile.

"He was a little afraid of seeing you, so he hid in the city of Luoshou with a mentality that it was rare and he was happy!" Li Jiancheng replied truthfully.

Yu Qiu said without surprise, "Since he likes to hide in Luoshe City, then let him hide enough this time. Calling you two brothers to come to Tubo not only because this is a strategic place for us to control the world in the future, we need to build a lot of things here, but also want you to help open up the economic lifeline of Tubo to West Asia and Central Asia."

"Open the economic lifeline of Tubo to Central and West Asia? To be honest, I have been on the plateau for more than ten days, and I still have some difficulty breathing now! I didn't find any economic value here in Tubo." Li Jiancheng said with some confusion.

What he sees now is the economic development potential that erupted after the Western Regions and Central Asia is connected with the Central Plains. As for Tubo, the altitude is too high and the transportation is inconvenient. The altitude is directly exaggerated by the possibility of most people coming here.

"Not now, it does not mean there will be no in the future. If the railway from Guanzhong to Jiannan Road is built, guess where will the railway be repaired next?" Yu Qiu looked at Li Jianchengdao with a smile.

"You mean, the railway will be built to this plateau?" Li Jiancheng said in surprise.

Yu Qiu shook his head and said, "Not only build up to the plateau, but also go through here to West Asia."

In later generations, West Asia's religious culture occupied this place and even covered Central and South Asia, which once affected the southwest part of our country. Now, on the contrary, all kinds of religions in West Asia have been destroyed, and Chinese culture will be spread from here to West Asia and even further away.

After hearing what Yu Qiu said, Li Jiancheng's thinking was instantly opened, and even his eyes emitted a strange bright light.

If it is true as Yu Qiu said, there is a lot to do on the Tubo Plateau.

Because Li Jiancheng knew that the trade volume between the Xia Kingdom and the Tubo Plateau has always been among the top ten in the world. Tubo is even one of the three major purchasing countries of the Xia Kingdom, second only to Li Tang, because there are a lot of medicinal materials and minerals and high-end cattle and sheep fur raw materials here.

If the population and farming here develop and the Chinese civilization emerges here, it will be difficult for West Asia and Central Asia to escape from the Central Plains.

Because, the strategic advantage here is not only in terms of force, but also in terms of culture.

The Tubo dynasty in history became powerful because it could rob people from all sides, so the Tubo now also had a huge influence because it could promote culture from all sides.

If Li Jiancheng could open up channels for Tubo to go from all directions, he would be a Tubo person, or a great hero in promoting Chinese civilization.

What is Li Jiancheng pursuing now?

Not power or wealth.

His son Li Chengdao will soon take over as Emperor Li Tang, and may even become the leader of the ruling coalition in the future. What other power and status can he pursue?

The only thing that can make him moved and even do his best to do is to be remembered forever and be famous for all time.

"Don't worry, I will do my best to achieve the goal you set." Li Jiancheng straightened his back.

Yu Qiu, who touched Li Jiancheng's little little heart, smiled and nodded, and talked to him about some specific ideas. In addition to the road from Zhuzhou and Songzhou to the Tubo Plateau led by Xia State, there are four roads from the direction of Yutian, the direction of Dabolu, Jialuobo, and the direction of Tianzhu State, which also require Li Jiancheng to complete the completion of the road. These roads can be highways, of course, the best is railways.

Although these are big projects and require massive financial investment, Yu Qiu did not want to allocate funds to Li Jiancheng.

He believed that Li Jiancheng from the Central Asian region of the General Political Department had many ways to make money. He only needed to mention him a few words and he could create many industries that could continuously provide funds for the construction of these channels.

After walking for five days to Luxue, Li Jiancheng chatted with Yu Qiu for five days. When the ox cart arrived outside Luxue City, Li Jiancheng looked at the Tubo people who left the city to welcome Yu Qiu, as if they saw saplings that could make money for themselves.

No wonder Yu Qiu focused on developing the population under his rule. It turned out that the most valuable thing in the world was actually labor.

Yu Qiu still handed over the task of greeting the kings and ministers of various countries to Li Jiancheng, greeted the people, and after harvesting a group of points, he went straight to the Tubo Palace.

Although Lushecheng is the largest city in Tubo, it is actually smaller than the prefectures in the Central Plains, and is not even larger than the smallest county town in Xia State. As for the Tubo Royal Palace, it is similar to a medium-sized hotel in Xia State. Even if many merchants transported many exquisite decoration materials produced by Xia State to decorate it, it was not very gorgeous. As for the Potala Palace that later generations saw, it was built by Songtsen Gampo, that is, Satuegum. Now, it may not be built.

Because Satuegum lived in Xia Kingdom for more than ten years and was more accustomed to the architectural styles of Xia Kingdom.

Yu Qiu saw the skinny Langri Lunzan on the kang in the master bedroom of the palace. Satuegum, who had rushed back earlier, was waiting beside him.

This is already the first time Yu Qiu has seen Langri Lunzan. However, the conversation this time was particularly shorter, and there are only four words that Langri Lunzan said.

"Leave it to you..."

These four words seemed to have used all the strength of Langri Lunzan's body. He could not even be able to hand Satuegum's hand to Yu Qiu's.

Yu Qiu also replied to his four words: "Go along the way."

Then, from Langri Lunzan's hand that had already been drooping, he took the hand of Satugem, who was already in tears, patted his back and said, "Sad."
