The excerpt from the governor's house is not long and was written by Li Yi. It mainly talks about the problem of migrating refugees.
The refugees who crossed the border from Liaoyun Pass went to the county governor's office to organize the recruitment of workers in major workshops and the recruitment of new guards. After about 100,000 people were recruited, there were still about 30,000 people who had no place to resettle.
After all, there is a need for people to recruit workers, and those with skills will be given priority, and there are only so many people with skills among a hundred thousand people. If the workshop meets the requirements, it will naturally not continue to recruit workers.
When recruiting soldiers for the Guards, strong young people are given priority. After this time, those who are skilled and physically strong have basically found a job.
Even their families at least had enough to eat and drink.
And who are the remaining 30,000 people?
The old, the weak, the sick, and some green-skinned gangsters who obviously have hands, feet, and strength but do nothing all day long and rely on bullying others to gain property!
These people are the most difficult to deal with. Firstly, they are the old, sick and disabled who can only be supported by others, and the weak ones are women and children. The rest are men who really can't find work and some gangsters who are unwilling to work.
The existence of these people means that the county magistrate's office has to spend a sum of money and food every day to give them porridge. In the long run, the county magistrate's office will definitely not be able to bear this kind of consumption.
Secondly, the instability of these 30,000 people has also brought great pressure on public security in Yunzhou City. With 30,000 people doing nothing, it is easy to cause trouble.
Therefore, when no solution could be found, the county governor's office raised the issue to the palace.
In addition, at the end of the letter, Li Yi also told a shocking news: someone else was released from the Liaoyun Pass!
This time the scale is huge, with a population of more than 200,000, which is really amazing. I asked Zhao Jun, the Cloud King, what else to do?
Zhao Jun, who was originally frowning, suddenly relaxed when he saw another 200,000 people coming.
If there are really only 30,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people left, it will be really difficult to place them, but if another 200,000 people come, two ideas instantly emerged in Zhao Jun's mind.
Build roads and build cities!
After this road construction, after the spring plowing is over, the guard camp will launch an offensive towards the Yunling Mountains, but Zhao Jun is still a little worried about the army crossing the Yunling Mountains.
It's not just a matter of miasma, but even if the army rolls over and knocks down the ground, how can Yunzhou County hold the land firmly in its hands?
The two places are separated by a huge mountain range covered with miasma and snakes, insects, rats, and ants. Whether it is the transportation of materials or the control after the war, it is a huge problem for the Yunzhou County Yamen.
So Zhao Jun planned to build a road from the beginning, starting from Yunzhou County, and opening a road directly to the opposite side in the Yunling Mountains. There happened to be refugees who were driven out from the pass to do this.
However, after selection by various major workshops and the escort army, almost all of the 100,000 young men were selected. Zhao Jun was having a headache whether they were qualified for the task of building roads, but another 20 people were released from the Liaoyun Pass. Thousands of people came.
No matter what their purpose is, there must be a large number of young people among these 200,000 people, who can be used to build roads, and the old, weak, sick and disabled can be used to do some auxiliary work.
As for building a city, it is even simpler. Due to the special reasons of Yunzhou County, the entire Yunzhou County is only one city, Yunzhou City, and most of the rest are patches of grassland. This also causes Yunzhou County to control its own territory. The problem of insufficient capacity.
If someone comes from abroad, it will take a while before the county magistrate's office knows the news.
This is also the reason why Liaoyun Pass can let people here unscrupulously. Yunzhou County must have a city at the pass and set up a checkpoint. Even if the Liaoyun Pass wants to let people over, they must look at Yunzhou County. Regardless of whether we agree or disagree, why is it that Liaoyun Pass now has no scruples in letting people go just as they say?
Therefore, building a city is imperative!
But there is a huge problem in building a city on the grassland. There is insufficient building materials!
Building a city requires a large amount of wood, stone, and various building materials.
At this time, some people will definitely say, isn’t Zhao Jun a time traveler?
Just get out the cement and build the city with cement, but the people who say this are not very smart.
Zhao Jun did come up with cement very early, but cement also requires raw materials.
Making a batch of qualified cement requires four raw materials: limestone, clay, slag and gypsum.
Although the grassland is rich in minerals, not all raw materials are available, and Yunzhou County does not cover all grassland boundaries. As far as the proven boundaries are concerned, raw materials such as limestone ore and iron have been discovered in Yunzhou County. These two minerals can be used to make cement.
With the large amount of slag and limestone produced by mining iron ore, and the tofu-making method invented by Zhao Jun in order to eat tofu, gypsum is not a problem.
But one of the most important raw materials, clay, has no mineral deposits found in the territory.
Without clay, Yunzhou County's cement cannot be built on a large scale, and a city cannot be built entirely from cement. A certain amount of wood is still needed.
Previously, the cement and clay used for the reconstruction of Yunzhou city walls and the re-paving of roads within the city were transported thousands of miles from Yangxi County by Feiyun Trading Company, which was barely enough for the previous projects.
If we build a city, it will be completely beyond our capabilities.
This was still a problem before, but the discovery of the great plain behind the Yunling Mountains solved this problem.
Where did the Dark Guard discover the clay mine!
That's right, it's the clay mineral needed as the main material for cement.
The storage capacity is quite large!
This also means that as long as Yunzhou County knocks down the boundary of the Great Plains, the Yunling Mountains can solve the timber problem, the Great Plains can solve the food problem of Yunzhou County, and the clay problem, cement can be mass-produced.
There is food and materials, and according to the news coming from the pass, there must be a large number of refugees in the pass, which means that he, Zhao Jun, can attract a large number of people in the name of sharing the worries of the court.
We have food, materials, technology, and the most important people when the time comes.
what does that mean?
It means development!
What a great development!
Zhao Jun has seen cities rise from the ground one after another in Yunzhou County, has seen the money in his wallet swell rapidly at an unimaginable speed every year, and has seen the beautiful scene of the army under his command expanding day by day.
Although, he never thought about that position!
but!
What if the new emperor sees him unhappy?
After all, Yunzhou County is a remote place, but the authority given to him by the court is really great.
If the new emperor is careless, he really won't let himself go.
Therefore, we still need to have the ability to protect ourselves.
Only when you develop yourself and have strength is the last word. When others don't reason with you, you can "reason" with them!
At that time, he will have to reason with you.
Daxia culture is broad and profound!
After thinking about the future path clearly, Zhao Jun suddenly felt full of energy!
I have been touching fish for several years, and I can still move it. After all, salted fish must be turned over occasionally, otherwise it will be roasted into charcoal!
A big wave of your hand!
"Wang Banban, send a message to Li Yi to prepare for the pacification of the 200,000 people. If the corresponding food tents are not enough, ask Yunli for it. Just say what the king said, don't care about the 200,000 people. Who gave me the "big gift" from Yunzhou County? We all want it, and we will talk about other things later.
In addition, notify the major workshop owners and county governors in the city to hold a meeting! I want to discuss with them the next development issues of Yunzhou County! "
On the side, Wang Huai'en took the prince's words to heart one by one. After the prince finished speaking, he responded quickly and left quickly to inform all parties.
The prince looks very energetic today and seems to be less fishy. This is really rare!
I must not delay the prince's interest, and must complete the tasks assigned by the prince!
