124 The Confession
In summer, April, Jiangxia is rebelling.
Just after the vernal equinox, Lin Township prepared plowing and opened canals, and started a new season of rice cultivation. Chen Yi, the chief investigator, has calculated that he would raise enough seedlings needed for 5 million mu of paddy fields this season.
And five million acres are still conservatively estimated.
In Zhucheng and Rongcheng in the south, there are 600,000 mu of dry paddy fields. In Nanguan City, 300,000 mu, Yichang and Pingqu, each have about one million mu, totaling three million mu. Zhucheng in the north, a total of one million mu. There are also Nan Guangyang City under construction. Nan Guangyang City is located on the southern Juma Waterfront, with four branches and canals, and one million mu of paddy fields can be obtained.
According to past experience, even building cities and adding pierries cannot be missed, so before planting rice, only 500,000 mu of pierries can be planted.
Adding this together will lead to the rough source of five million mu of seedlings.
Chen Yi and others are not wrong.
But he didn't count the southern cities, especially Rongcheng and Yichang, which were close to the east and west Erdian. Liu Bei had ordered people to build land around the lake. A few days ago, Lu Jie and Lu Jian sent people to report that they might get more than 200,000 acres of fertile land each.
Liu Bei then told Chen Yi that he would plan to take 5.5 million mu of seedlings.
The two family ministers came to report again, saying that since the beginning of spring, refugees have gone north. The Xianbei outside the Great Wall has continued to go south. The population of Linxiang may exceed one million this year. Shaojun's jurisdiction has 300 miles of land, sufficient manpower and machinery. In order to prevent any trouble, it is better to raise 6 million mu of seedlings.
Liu Bei nodded happily and set the total of 6 million acres.
One mu of seedlings and 20 mu of fields.
That is to say, a mu of seedling fields can plant 20 mu of seedlings. This year, 300,000 mu of fertile land is needed. Zhucheng, the northern part of Linxiang, can grow seedlings by themselves. The southern part has just been converted into paddy fields this year and knows nothing about rice cultivation. Liu Bei ordered Du Kang and Licheng farmers to raise seedlings on their behalf. The people of the two cities all came from the rice area and were good at rice cultivation. At the order of the king and the marquis, the farmers agreed in unison.
Linxiang Hou never uses people in vain.
The costs of seedling cultivation, seeds, labor, etc. are paid in full.
I heard that there is a model of the entire terrain of Lin Township in the study on the fifth floor of Liu Bei. The four scholars in the school said, why not imitate another one in the Grand Library?
Liu Bei understood the profound meaning. He ordered Su Bo to create a "Linxiang Current Situation Model Picture" in the library on the top floor of the school for students to read.
The trend of rivers, mountains and rivers, city walls, ditches, and fields are clear at a glance.
Chen Yi, the former Investigator, has estimated that a land in Lin Township can be enough to harbor 10 million mu of paddy fields. Based on the yield of six stones per mu, a year can be obtained with 60 million stones of new grain. It is turned into Dukang japonica rice, which is 42 million stones. It can nourish more than 1.9 million labor force. With the plan of a family, it can support 5 million people.
It is one-tenth of the Han Dynasty's population.
Linxiang is only three hundred miles away.
With such a large number of people, preventing plague is the top priority. The introduction of sanitary facilities such as washing, plumbing and heating, and the continuous construction of medical clinics are to prevent problems before they happen. Nowadays, there is a medicine garden in Lousangu. The same is true for Licheng. Even the scenery on the Dukang Chonglou Daping Tower is widely planted.
The universal magic medicine isatis root was finally found by Liu Bei.
It turns out that the so-called isatis root is indigo root. Indigo is the most commonly used blue fuel nowadays. Xunzi's famous line: "The blue is better than the blue". It refers to this blue dyeing technique.
The construction of the medicine garden was also continuously improved by the Liangjiang of Hou Fu. The spraying facilities used for fire prevention were also moved into the medicine garden to spray and water the medicinal materials. The heating in the boiler room in the home can also be transported to the garden through the pottery pipe. Herbs can be planted all year round. Some commonly used medicines have been stored in sufficient amounts in Linxiang. There is no danger of lacking medical treatment or medicine.
When treating diseases nowadays, the medicine is just an auxiliary to slow down the disease, so that the patient can eat normally and reincarnate the grains. With his own immunity, he can eliminate the lesions. Nowadays, human genes should not be too strong. Why should I use medicine for a small disease? I will be cured by storing it. If I encounter a bad disease, it is a fate.
Medical alcohol can be used for external sterilization and disinfection. In addition, several commonly used herbs are sufficient.
Although there are many good doctors in Lou Sang, no one can match Hua Tuo. Liu Bei had ordered people from all over the country to sell goods a few years ago to search everywhere. He did not seek to live in Lou Sang for a long time, but only wanted to recruit disciples and teach them superb medical skills. There has been no news yet. There is no hurry. He can find it in the end.
He had been in short supply before, so he dared not to fight again. Now he has a territory of 300 miles. There are more than ten cities in all sizes, with more than 10,000 people in the north and south, and he is short of his siege. Liu Bei ordered his adoptive father to recruit swords, shields, spearmen, long bowmen, and shields, totaling 3,000 people. He broke up with the original elite soldiers and reorganized, trained in the martial arts field, and prepared to station several cities in the southern part.
No need to have more, one thousand people per city is enough.
With the supervision of the construction of several million-stone granaries in Nangang Cang, Donggang Cang, and Nanguan Cang, Liu Bei chose the auspicious day and appointed his eldest brother Liu Wen as the Chengcang Order, with a rank of 600 stones. He also promoted his second brother Liu Wu to the rank of 600 stones, and also led the Chengcang Wei. He managed various granaries under the jurisdiction of Lin Township.
The three granaries require 300 officials at all levels. They all come from the Lousang Academy. The great scholar Cui Shi couldn't help but smile bitterly. The school had just been full and was caught in one net, leaving only two or three boys. If there were a few granaries, no one would be available for the school.
There is no way, when it comes to governing the people and governing the government, Cui Shi is the first. Therefore, most of the low-level officials come from other schools.
It is precisely because of this that most of the children in Linxiang who joined Cui Shi to study. After their studies, they can become officials. They do not seek high-ranking officials and generous salaries, but only seek to support the family and the elderly.
Even if you are a minor official who eats a meal, you will also have tens of thousands of salary a year. With the addition of the store, rice crops, and various incomes, it is very rich after careful calculation.
Just 50 acres of fertile land, fish and rice will have an income of 100,000 yuan a year. Plus the rent of the store, the salary of the official can be earned 200,000 yuan a year. Excluding taxes, mediocre money and other expenses, it can not only be worry-free, but also be rich.
There are many disasters in the world, and all the states and counties are displaced. They beg for food in other places and become refugees. Not only are the weather in Lin Township good, they still have the spare time to accommodate refugees. Moreover, Han, Hu and Man live in mixed places, but they do not pick up their own remains on the road and do not close their doors at night.
All rely on the virtue of the king.
"The virtue of a man is greater than that of a monarch. If the wise men are illuminated, then all evil will not be obscured."
Rumor is that Linxiang Hou Lingxiu Tiancheng is the son of Qilin, the Tian family. He is blessed by the gods.
Officials in Linxiang, retainers of the Marquis' Mansion, and people who have made meritorious people moved to Linxiang City one after another after the spring. Liu Bei did not take back the vacant houses in various places, and they were all considered private property of each company. They can be sold on their own. Many families bought them in installments. They paid the debts before the sale, or transferred the debts to new households. They could all be sold for millions of dollars in good houses that were originally priced at 100,000 yuan. Most of the buyers were wealthy merchants in the north. It can be seen that Linxiang was prosperous.
Settling in Linxiang has too many benefits. In addition to the many conveniences of life, you can enjoy various benefits such as studying, medical treatment, and employment. Linxiang Hou is strong and strong, and can also protect the safety of the family. This is the key.
As mentioned earlier, chaos is coming. If the whole family cannot avoid the powerful, the situation will be in danger.
