Next, Luo Taisui and Gongsun Wuda talk about the "People Supervision System".

The so-called herd supervision system means choosing a suitable herd farmland and setting up a herd supervision to manage it.

The pastoral supervisor is divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower.

Any horse with more than 5,000 horses is the upper magistrate, more than 3,000 horses is the middle magistrate, and less than 3,000 horses are the lower magistrate.

One hundred and twenty horses are in a group. Each group has one leader, and fifteen groups are one lieutenant, who is managed by Mu Wei.

The Muslim Supervision set up one person, one or two deputy supervisors, one or two chief officials, and there are also officials such as chief clerk, direct officials, regiment officials, Mu Wei, Pai Ma, and Chief Mu.

Mu Wei is assessed once a year, and those who have made contributions can be promoted.

In addition, according to the thickness of the horse, it is divided into left and right prisons, with fine horses in left and thick horses in right prisons, and numbers are numbered and registered.

For any horses needed for battle, first mobilize the strong ones, and then take the next step when there is insufficient.

Of course, other cattle and sheep can also be managed together.

In short, Luo Taisui said a lot of things like this.

Gongsun Wuda nodded frequently when he heard this.

In fact, this herds supervision system is not difficult to understand, but the problem is that the good herdsland is not only Ganzhou.

There are also in Yuanzhou, and it is closer to the capital.

After Gongsun Wuda raised this question, Luo Taisui nodded to express his understanding.

At present, the biggest enemy of the Tang Dynasty is the East and West Turks, plus the Liang Shidu, and the geographical front position of Yuanzhou is very important.

But Luo Taisui's eyes are longer-term.

You should know that after the fall of the Eastern and Western Turks, Tubo rose and fought for a great power for more than two hundred years.

By then the importance of Ganzhou will be reflected.

"General, don't worry, why don't you listen to me about the farmland water conservancy in Ganzhou?" Luo Taisui said calmly.

Gongsun Wuda smiled and said, "I hope to hear the details."

"I dare to ask the general, how much food is consumed in Ganzhou every year?" Luo Taisui asked first.

"Three hundred thousand stones." Gongsun Wuda said.

Two hundred thousand stones a year are indeed not worth mentioning for many central prefectures and counties.

Gongsun Wuda was also helpless about this.

Although Ganzhou is very suitable for growing grain, the problem is that manpower is short and a lot of land has not been reclaimed.

"Does these 200,000 shi include the income from military farming?" Luo Taisui asked again.

"Of course it's included." Gongsun Wuda sighed again.

"General, don't worry." Luo Taisui said confidently: "I have three strategies to make Ganzhou rich in food and grass. It can provide melons in the west, and the front line can be used in the south, and the country can be supported in the south. It can be used in several states, and the destiny of Hexi is all in Ganzhou."

"Please come quickly!" Gongsun Wuda immediately felt enlightened when he heard that "the fate of Hexi is all related to Ganzhou."

If this is true, it would be a waste of time to trust him today and arrange him to Hexi to take charge of the overall situation.

He Gongsun Wuda also repaid his kindness.

"First, the general can report to the court, increase the military strength of Ganzhou as a military camp, and reclaim wasteland as much as possible. In this way, the annual grain income will be increased to 300,000 shi, which is not difficult."

Luo Taisui said calmly: "The court can calculate this account clearly."

“Um…”

Gongsun Wuda nodded slowly.

As one of the heroes of Xuanwu Sect, he was deeply trusted by Daoshi.

If it is beneficial to the entire Hexi land, he can report it to the capital with one piece of paper and the emperor decides it.

"Second..." Luo Taisui raised his second finger and "implemented the policy of purging."

"And the rice dumplings?"

Gongsun Wuda was stunned.

The so-called "harmony" is a method of national management of grain, and it is a certain mandatory official buying system.

In harvest years or areas with abundant grain production, the government purchases grain through cash or barter, etc. to avoid famine when the grain is bad.

This method was implemented in the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, and later dynasties had implemented this method to varying degrees.

But……

What does this have to do with increasing the grain output in Ganzhou?

Luo Taisui said: "Since ancient times, men farming and women weaving are popular among the people, and they are self-sufficient.

However, due to limited conditions, Ganzhou has no advantage in cotton planting, and its handicraft industry is relatively backward.

People want to get cloth, what if?”

"Of course I bought it." Gongsun Wuda laughed when he heard this.

Ganzhou is a must-pass place on the Silk Road, so do you still have to worry about not being able to buy silk cloth?

"Where does that money come from?" Luo Taisui asked with a smile.

Gongsun Wuda was stunned again.

The people have abundant food, but their income is small.

Luo Taisui was very satisfied with his reaction and asked again: "What if the general uses silk cloth to buy the people's food?"

Gongsun Wuda's eyes lit up immediately.

"Of course, this is just a way of thinking." Luo Taisui shook his head and continued: "The general will give them whatever the people need. Whether it is money, cloth, or anything else, and the people only need to pay a certain amount of food.

In this way, the people can focus all their energy on cultivating grain. Why not worry about not having high grain output?”

"well!"

Gongsun Wuda applauded.

The merchant would not travel thousands of miles to Ganzhou to purchase grain and buy food. He has the absolute right to speak!

“What about the third point?”

Seeing two of the three strategies, Gongsun Wuda could not wait to know what the third strategy was.

At this time, Luo Taisui asked, "Have you not rewarded the person who just went to test the Quyuan Plough?"

"Well……"

Gongsun Wuda almost forgot about this.

It is a coincidence that the people who tried to farm at this time reported that the new plow had a surprisingly good effect. Compared with the commonly used long-wheel plows and straight-wheel plows, it was not easy to get in, and it saved time and was more than three times more efficient!

three times!!

Gongsun Wuda's scalp was numb.

Which is a farm tool?

This is a magical tool!

"That's the third thing I'm going to say."

Luo Taisui grinned and said, "Are the general satisfied?"

The curved plow improves the efficiency of farming, which means that by putting in the same amount of manpower, more land can be reclaimed for grain...

"Satisfied! Of course satisfied!"

Gongsun Wuda was as if he had found a treasure, and looked at Luo Taisui with his eyes lit up and said, "This... Quyuan Plough, yes, this Quyuan Plough is to be given to me, right?"

"A little care is not worth mentioning."

Luo Taisui showed a stable mentality that was extremely inconsistent with his age.

Gongsun Wuda was not polite either and immediately arranged for research and asked for batch production for farming.

"General, Ganzhou has food, grass and soldiers, and with excellent horse herdsland, as long as you request to develop horse politics, it is impossible for you to refuse today.

Once the Ma government is implemented, the animal husbandry industry in Ganzhou will also develop accordingly.

The development of animal husbandry will drive the processing of leather and wool textiles, plus grain products, wood products, hemp products, metal products, medicinal materials...

These handmade products have no worries about sales, because Ganzhou is at a critical moment, which will only make Ganzhou's business more and more prosperous."

Luo Taisui smiled and said, "In this way, military, farmers, industry and business are equally important, complementing each other, Ganzhou is in full swing, and it is just around the corner!"

Gongsun Wuda was convinced and stood up and bowed: "If this is true, it depends entirely on the power of the emperor.

Mr. Gongsun, on behalf of the people of Ganzhou, thank you in advance!"
Chapter completed!
