"Where is the southern Fujian Prefecture?" Li Jia asked hurriedly.

"About one million and two million stones!"

"I have all gotten rice from southern Fujian. Lingnan Dingkou is less than that, but the grain production is twice as high. Is it really a fool?"

Only 50,000 stones were added. When Li Jia heard this, she felt that she was fooling herself and was very angry.

"Your Majesty calmed down!" Prime Minister Zhao Cheng hurriedly said: "The Minnan Prefecture was recently included last year, and the registration of the household land has not yet been launched. If it were based on previous years, it would have been very good!"

Among the six prefectures in southern Fujian, the richest ones are Fu, Quan and Zhangzhou. The other three prefectures are all at the foot of Wuyi Mountain. It is indeed understandable that there is no money or food to receive.

However, there are nearly two million people in the six prefectures of southern Fujian Province. How could they support them without enough food?

Li Jia naturally doesn't believe it, which is not consistent with common sense.

And he couldn't do anything to him, because this was based on taxes collected in previous years. There was only so much household registration and land in the court. What can you do?

"We should build a house as soon as possible!"

Li Jia was so angry that he came and went quickly. He waved his hand and sighed: "Since last year, Changsha Prefecture, Jingnan Prefecture, and Xiangxi Prefecture, these three places have already started to register households. How is the situation going?"

According to Li Jia's plan, the three governments will be organized for one and a half years, and the first year of Shenwu will end, which will be the end of this year.

Then in the fifth year of Shenwu, the three prefectures of Jiangxi, Jiangning and southern Fujian were registered in one year, and the two prefectures of Dongchuan and Xichuan were placed in the last place because Shu was not peaceful, so it was placed in the last place.

Therefore, by the end of the sixth year of Shenwu, in almost six years, the entire Tang Dynasty Prefecture was completed and the entire Tang Dynasty Prefecture was completely controlled, and the court's combat potential was improved.

At this time, the fat Tang Dynasty completed the digestion of all territories, and the fat meat turned into muscles, and the fists they waved were extremely harmful.

Moreover, in recent years, the scale of cavalry has reached 20,000 or 30,000, and it has strong assault capabilities. In the vast Central Plains, it has strong combat capabilities and can attack the north in a comprehensive attack.

In 966 AD, this auspicious number was the beginning of the Tang Dynasty's Unification War.

"This..." Zhao Cheng was a little hesitant. The Dutian households were supervised by the head of the Political Affairs Hall. He naturally knew that it was difficult for him to speak out. "Report to Your Majesty, there are still several states in Changsha Prefecture, Lang and Li Prefectures in Jingnan Prefecture, which have not yet begun. At the end of this year, it is probably too late!"

"Yeah? Why is this?" Li Jia said in a deep voice: "It's only been more than a year in Lingnan, and these three prefectures have not been completed yet. Could it be that the officials are negligent?"

He thought that it might be that he had just taken the throne and had great power, so he would definitely have deterrent power. In addition, using the merger of prefectures and counties as a gimmick, he reduced his official positions, so that he forced local officials to do their best to organize households and fields, just to avoid being dismissed.

The officials of the three prefectures in Changsha have no intimidation, so it is difficult to do their best. It seems that carrots and sticks are the most effective.

"The Political Affairs Hall has been urging, and with the deposed envoy and the duty of Wang Xunjian, the local prefectures and counties have indeed tried their best, but they are really unable to meet the strength!"

Zhao Cheng said with a wry smile.

There was a deposed envoy hanging above his head. Who dared not do his best? It was not a lie to demote the official after one word.

"Why?" Li Jia continued to ask: "But there are unruly gangsters in the area to boycott?"

"Not all!" Seeing the emperor's face becoming more and more wrong, Zhao Cheng no longer kept his mouth shut and said directly: "The registration of household registration, the measurement of land, and the location of the land all require knowledgeable talents. It is a pity that the Lingnan people are only one.5 million, and Chengtian Prefecture (Guangzhou) has already carried out the work. The total entrances of Lingdong and Lingxi Prefectures are only seven or eight hundred thousand, so naturally they can register and register in more than a year!"

"But Changsha Prefecture, Jingnan Prefecture, and Xiangxi Prefecture allocated land together, with a household registration of more than 2 million yuan, almost twice as many as one year and a half, but due to the lack of officials, it is difficult to measure and register!"

Hearing these words, Li Jia suddenly became enlightened.

It turns out that the bitter fruits are caused by different populations and too few officials.

"It's because there are too few students in the Imperial College!"

Li Jia shook her head and sighed.

The prime ministers on the side looked at each other. Is it really good for you to treat the students like this?

That’s right, whether it is Lingnan or Hunan, the ones who are truly responsible for the field management and help local prefectures and counties are just students from the Imperial College, and more than a thousand people.

As mentioned earlier, most of the people in the Imperial College are descendants of officials. They send their children to the Imperial College to enjoy free educational privileges. In the Tang Dynasty, there were very few ordinary people.

Such scholars have a great status and are protected by guards, so they are naturally not afraid of local wealthy families. They are used as free survey registrants, which is most suitable.

Therefore, over the past year and a half, many Imperial College students have worked extremely hard.

Of course, Li Jia did not use them in vain. He knew that most of these people had poor academic ability and had no chance to take the imperial examination, so he directly used the fame of scholars to tempt them.

As long as you survive these two years and perform well, you will be awarded the reputation of scholars.

With these fame and fortune, coupled with family power, it should not be too simple to be an official, so the poor students flock to them.

However, there are more than two million people in the three palaces, which is indeed too many, and there are also many mountains. There are really no one thousand people who can handle it.

"Don't add students from the Imperial College?" Li Jia said tentatively.

"Your Majesty, time is tight and it's too late. Besides, there are only so many people!"

Zhao Cheng was so funny that you were addicted to free labor!

"It can only be extended. After next summer food, it should be fine!"

"No!" Li Jia waved his hand quickly. This would interrupt his plan. If he dragged on, the strength of the Central Plains would soar and it would be difficult to fight.

"Dutianhe and the registered households, just read the text and write, right?" Li Jia murmured.

"Yes, the cooperation between local governments and counties, and the deposed envoys are staring at them, all they lack is the manpower to read and write. However, there are too few scholars in the world and their background is complex, so it is difficult to be competent!"

Zhao Cheng couldn't help but sigh.

Li Jia understood his meaning. Now that woodblock printing has not been widely popularized on a large scale, the price of books is very high, and poor literature and wealthy martial arts are still available in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the cost of raising a scholar is too high.

Therefore, if you appoint scholars from these places, isn’t it equivalent to putting salted fish into a cat’s nest? It’s not advisable. “Yes, the cooperation between local governments and counties, and the deposed envoys are staring at them. All they lack is the manpower to read and write. However, there are too few scholars in the world, and the background is complex, so it’s difficult to be competent!”

Zhao Cheng couldn't help but sigh.

Li Jia understood his meaning. Now that woodblock printing has not been widely popularized on a large scale, the price of books is very high, and poor literature and wealthy martial arts are still available in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the cost of raising a scholar is too high.
