"Your Majesty, please give me your instructions."
Thousands of people kowtowed in unison.
Wu Nian nodded slightly, then thought for a moment and said, "Go further. There is a saying. The general trend of the world is that if we divide for a long time, we will unite, and if we unite for a long time, we will divide."
"Since the end of the ancient dynasty, there has been a lot of chaos. That's why people like Chen Sheng have ascended to the top and called out. The princes, generals and ministers would rather have their own kind. Then they rose up. In just a few years, they slaughtered the Qin State."
"There are also people like Zhang Jue who claim that Heaven is dead and Huang Tian should stand. The Thirty-six Directions of the Yellow Turban shook the Eastern Han Dynasty."
"Examples like this abound."
"In addition to the late dynasty, when powerful people were running rampant and annexing land, and official administration was corrupt, there is another important reason."
"Our Chinese land has limited carrying capacity."
"For example, there are many mountains and little fields in Fujian. There is a tradition of drowning newborn babies to prevent the family from becoming too large. If they can't feed them, they won't know how to be independent in the future."
"Shanxi is the same. It's mountainous, arid and rainless. There are too many people on the Loess Plateau."
“We can’t feed so many people.”
"I plan to move some people to the Three Han Dynasties."
"An old man told me before that he didn't want to leave. Because my parents' graves are on the mountain, and I'm afraid no one will worship them after they leave."
"It's hard to leave your homeland, and it's really hard to leave your parents' graves behind. So I don't plan to move from village to village."
"In each village, poor people are selected. The second or third sons of the family migrate to Sanhan. The land there is fertile and the rain is abundant. As long as you work hard, you can live a good life."
"The eldest son is left to inherit the family business and worship his parents' graves."
"The population has migrated away, and the land vacated can be planted with vegetation."
"I am dedicated to Shanxi and am supported by the court's money. I set up river officials and mountain officials to lead the forest protection team, planting team, and water protection team. On the Loess Plateau, I plant grass and trees, protect the grass and trees, and protect the mountains and rivers."
"You help me publicize it. Tell the mountain people and ordinary people about the benefits of returning farmland to forest."
"Of course. This benefit will be realized slowly. As the saying goes, it takes ten years to educate people and a hundred years to plant trees. When the Loess Plateau turns into Jiangnan beyond the Great Wall, I and you will no longer be able to see it."
"But our descendants will be able to see it. Fifty years or a hundred years later, Shanxi people will no longer have to look at loess connected to loess. They will no longer have to drink half a bowl of sand and half a bowl of water from the Yellow River."
"In addition, now that the country has steel and concrete, water officials can choose a location and build a reservoir. It can be used to feed people and livestock, and can also be used to plant vegetation."
Wu Nian's eyes glowed and he said in a deep voice.
Return farmland to forests.
He didn't say it out of thin air.
It is the result of practice by later generations.
The Loess Plateau of modern society has changed drastically after decades of state governance.
Of course, current conditions are not as good as modern society.
But as long as we use the spirit of Foolish Old Man to move mountains, we can manage it bit by bit.
Fifty years or a hundred years.
The Loess Plateau was cured.
Let the water of the Yellow River become clear.
He will also promote the development of technology. Cement, steam cars, etc. Even if he kicked off his legs, he was buried in the loess.
The prince will continue to work under his influence.
In this time and space.
China will never be a fat sheep under the guns of foreign powers.
He wants to make China a great power.
No.
is the strongest.
There are many things that he has not said. China's land has limited carrying capacity.
Even in a modern society with technological advancement and developed agriculture.
The country can barely feed a population of more than one billion by relying on its own agriculture.
In order to feed the growing population, the best way is to immigrate. At present, the lands he has conquered include the Goguryeo Peninsula, Fusang Islands, and Outer Northeast.
The vast Siberian plain in the north is generally not suitable for human survival. But there are some places where you can live.
Move a few million people there.
Conquer Central Asia and then immigrate there.
Conquer Southeast Asia and then immigrate there.
Australia, America, Africa.
Thinking a little too far, Wu Nian retracted his thoughts. Even if that day comes, he probably won't exist anymore.
What he has done in his life is to unify China and expel the Slavs.
Leave a strong foundation to the prince.
The prince will be responsible for the subsequent external expansion.
When Wu Nian said this, he made it very clear. He winked at the officials who followed him, and led them away from the siege.
Thousands of Shanxi people were left in silence.
In their minds, the world in Wu Nian's words emerged involuntarily.
Under the command of a powerful court.
A large number of second sons, third sons, etc. from Shanxi villages left Shanxi and went to the Sanhan area to seek life.
Large numbers of people supported by the imperial court planted vegetation.
Large numbers of forest rangers funded by the imperial court protected vegetation. To prevent someone from destroying the forest secretly.
In the hands of the people of Shanxi. The Loess Plateau is covered with green bit by bit, eliminating the loess in the sky.
From loess to loess, it becomes green mountains to green mountains.
Reservoirs nourish the Loess Plateau, turning it into Jiangnan beyond the Great Wall.
Because rainwater carries less soil, the water in the Yellow River becomes clear.
This is like a picture scroll, a picture of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" that unfolds in the minds of Shanxi people and eventually becomes the beautiful Shanxi.
Everyone was kneeling in a daze, and they didn't even know when Wu Nian left.
"Your Majesty is holy!!!!" the old man Sun Tinghe was the first to react, shouting with red eyes and tears streaming down his face.
"Your Majesty is Holy Ming!!!" Thousands of Shanxi people shouted in unison. The sound spreads in all directions like waves.
Even the nearby Taiyuan City can hear it.
"Hahaha. Grandpa finally believes that the emperor can do it." Sun Huchen laughed secretly when he saw his grandfather being so excited.
Wu Nian, who had already gone far in Luanyu, couldn't help but smile when he heard the sound of the mountains roaring and the tsunami.
There are help from the leading figures in these villages and localities.
Return farmland to forests.
No need to worry anymore.
but. It's the officials here in Shanxi who have a bit of a heavy burden.
Wu Nian raised his head, looked at Shi Xian who was sitting in the Luan Yu with him in front of him, and said, "Shi Qing. I am the king of development."
"I believe in you, and the government's policies must be consistent. It is not good to change people. I attacked Goguryeo and established Youyan. I attacked Fusang and established Xinqi. The governor of Youyan, Lu Sheng, and the governor of Xinqi, Cheng Yulian. I let them work for ten, twenty years, or even a lifetime."
"It's the same here in Shanxi. Governor of Shanxi. You'll be here for at least ten years."
"You just go ahead and do it, whether it's money or materials, we will fully support you."
"Please rest assured, your majesty. I must have cured Shanxi with my heart-broken brain." Shi Xian was feeling hot all over, and his excitement was beyond words. He bent down and knelt down.
