There were originally 9,051 households and 46,231 people. Due to the loss of a lot of people fleeing famine, the current population has not yet been calculated. Last year The average wheat yield per mu is 75 kilograms, and the average soybean yield is 135 kilograms per mu.

After the meeting, Fu Xi met Xiang Ming, the general of Zhengxi. Fu Xi said: "I have generally sorted out the internal affairs of Qi and Yu counties." Xiang Mingyan said: "Thank you for your hard work, Governor Fu. Your Majesty is full of praise for the abilities of Governor Fu." Fu Xi asked: "The military deployment of the two counties What is the policy? I want to make preparations." Xiang Mingyan: "The king has no follow-up instructions. But Ming estimates that the Western Expedition is almost over, and we need to consider how to defend it." Fu Xi asked: "What about the Khitans?" Xiang Mingyan: " There is information in the capital that we must beware of the Khitan attack in winter. Qi and Yu must not only defend the city, but also have cavalry guerrillas to threaten the Khitan cavalry. Our army has 5,000 cavalry, General Wang has 1,500 cavalry, and you have 900 cavalry here. Right? Totally fightable." After hearing this, Fu Xi breathed a sigh of relief. Xiang Mingyan said: "I plan to guard Qi County with 10,000 troops and 5,000 infantry and 5,000 cavalry combined with General Wang's troops and horses. Make preparations with your people. There should be no problem with armaments, but for grain, grass, ordnance and supplies, we must rely on Fu County Governor." Fu Xiyan: "Currently there is food and grass, but Tong, Qi, and Yu counties are suffering from severe drought and there is no food stock. Suwei counties are under great pressure to rescue and supply troops. Tong, Qi, and Yu counties must be exempted from grain taxes this autumn and next year." Spring grain tax, otherwise it will be unsustainable." Xiang Mingyan said: "I support it. We will write to the king separately, and let General Wang also write to him." Fu Xi said well.

Wang Houcai, Cao Zuo of Hufang, came to report on the work and said: "So far in late June, another 8,000 victims have arrived, and this time the total number of victims is 43,000. All the houses in Suwei and Tongsan counties have attracted various talents. 428 people. In Tong County, 10,000 people cleared wasteland for tenant farmers, in Wei County, 10,000 people cleared wasteland for tenant farmers, and in Suxian County, 20,000 people opened up wasteland for tenant farmers. There are about 3,000 miners and blacksmiths in Wei County. The economy of the three counties is running well." Fu Xiyan: "After the three counties fully absorb the victims, the economy will be greatly improved. After this autumn harvest, we need to purchase a large amount of food and do not leave any money. We are under great food pressure." Wang Houcai said well. Fu Xiyan: "In a few days, the document that the king appoints me as the governor of the northern county will arrive. I want to adjust the organizational structure. Wang Caozuo will be my minister of household affairs in the northern county, with the same rank as the county magistrate."

On the 20th, Fu Xi talked with Xu Sanwei, Cao Zuo of the Gongfang, and appointed him as the Minister of Industry of the Northern County. Talked with Cao Zuo Liu Sanwa of the farm house and asked him to be the Minister of Agriculture of Northern County. Liu Sanwa couldn't help but kowtow and shouted: "There is smoke coming out of the ancestral graves. My peasant boy has become a high official." He talked with Cao Zuo Li Daniu of the farm house. Li Daniu was equally excited when he was appointed as the Minister of Animal Husbandry of Northern County. Fuxi Ling Bingfang Cao Zuo Zhao Si was the Minister of War and Intelligence Department of the Northern County, Ling Li Yuan was the Minister of the Strategy Department of the Northern County, Qu Jin, Shi Xiu, Su Guowei, and Tian Yuan were the counselors of the Strategy Department of the Northern County, with the same rank as Cao Zuo. At this time, Su Guowei and Tian Yuan had returned to Su County. The four departments of officials, rites, punishment, and medicine are temporarily unavailable. Fu Xi asked the ministers of the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Agriculture, and the Ministry of Animal Husbandry to go to the following counties to understand the situation, and to allocate personnel and resources to maximize effectiveness. The four ministers left as ordered. Five people from the Strategy Department also requested to visit various counties, especially Qi and Yu counties. Fu Xi said good things.
On August 1st, after practicing the Fuxi Zhuang Kung Fu, I let out a long breath of turbid air. Wang Eryan: "The initial stage of my Zhuang Gong Qi has been stabilized. My talent in martial arts training is amazing. I think it is very possible for me to break through the Little Zhoutian and enter the Great Zhoutian in the future." Fu Xi smiled and said: "Thank you for your good wishes, Second Uncle Wang. I'm not in a hurry, so I just practice with concentration." Wang Eryan: "This kind of mentality is the most important. Once I get anxious, the effect will be very different." Fu Xi asked: "With my martial arts, I can use real swords and guns on the ground. Do you want to confront the opponent's general on the battlefield?" Wang Eryan said: "My master's stone lock has reached 80 kilograms, his strength has been fully developed, his sword skills have become perfect, and his marksmanship has become proficient. He can confront the general head-on. He just lacks experience." Fu Xiyan: "Okay. Take your time, I'm not in a hurry." Wang Eryan said, "Let us develop for a few more years, and we won't be afraid of anything." Fu Xi laughed. He also asked: "How is the industry in the counties of Fufu?" Wang replied for the second time: "Fufu in Su County has 280,000 acres of old cultivated land and 150,000 acres of reclaimed land. The oil pressing plant produces oil every day, and workers can take turns to take turns. The garment factory produces oil every day. The output value of garment making is not as good as that of pig raising, but the profit is very high, close to the profit of pig raising. The total industry income in June reached 2,500 yuan." Fu Xiyan: "The income is so high? It is equivalent to the Suxian Industrial and Commercial Tax." Wang Eryan : "The industrial and commercial tax is 20% of the output value, and our profit is 50%. The profits of other large households are similar." Fu Xiyan: "The industry in Suxian County is really booming." Wang Eryan: "Not only the industry, but also the life of the people is good The farmers in Fufu have spinning machines, briquette stoves, pig houses and sheep sheds. The purchase price of wheat was high a while ago, so the farmers in Fufu sold some of their wheat and bought looms. The peasant women planned to produce in winter. Weaving, raising pigs, and sheep at home are much more profitable than participating in large-scale production. In addition, pigs and sheep are being raised together. The tenant farmers in Fufu can be said to be well-off." Fu Xi asked: "Other big households Where are the tenant farmers?" Wang Er replied: "The farmers who own land have good backgrounds. They have built pig houses and sheep houses early, and bought looms early. There are also some lazy and poor people who have not built pig houses or sheep houses, but If it is built before winter, there will be no problem. Every tenant farmer in Su County has a loom before winter, so it can be realized." Fu Xi asked: "Where are those who escaped from famine?" Wang Er replied: "Every big household has given them credit to build pig houses. , sheep shed, and lent them spinning machines and looms on credit. They are so lucky." Fu Xiyan: "After this winter, Su County can be said to be well-off." Wang Eryan: "Yes. The old man under the jurisdiction of Fu Mansion in Wei County There are 270,000 acres of cultivated land and 50,000 acres of reclaimed land. Fufu industries: breeding plants, oil pressing plants, weaving factories, and garment factories are also very profitable, but the soybean yield per mu in Wei County has not yet reached its peak. Oil pressing plants, The production capacity of the breeding factory has not yet reached full capacity, but the weaving and garment factory is very busy, but they dare not expand too much because weaving to households is a trend. In June, the industrial income of Fufu in Wei County reached 1,500 yuan. The tenant farmers under the jurisdiction of Fufu have no food and clothing. Problem, but building pig houses, sheep houses, and buying looms is not enough this year, but next year we will reach the level of Suxian County." Fu Xi nodded. Wang Eryan: "Fufu in the same county has jurisdiction over 250,000 acres of old cultivated land and 50,000 acres of reclaimed land. The industrial scale of Fufu is still small, and the industrial income in June is 500 yuan. The tenant farmers still need relief. After this year's autumn harvest and large-scale winter production, they can have food and clothing. Don't worry. We will report to the master on the situation in Qi County and Yu County after the mass production in winter." Fu Xi said well.
