When he saw Li Ke coming out, the other party came up to him directly.
"Li Shuang, Magistrate of Chang'an County, has met His Highness the King of Qin." Li Shuang came up and saluted Li Ke first.
"Chang'an ordered no courtesy." Li Ke said with a smile. Li Shuang, whose courtesy name is Qianyou, is from the same family as Li Ke. He comes from Danyangfang, the Li family in Longxi, and is related to Li Jing. They both came from Danyang at the same time. Yang Fang is probably in his forties this year.
This man also had a name in history. He was quite long-lived and seemed to have lived for more than seventy years. In the library of the warehouse, Li Ke took a rough look at some officials of the Tang Dynasty who had historical records.
"Magistrate Li is coming today?" Li Ke asked knowingly.
"I heard that your highness is concerned about the resettlement situation of these refugees. As the magistrate of Chang'an County, I must come to listen to your opinions. After all, both the Datang Welfare Industrial Zone and these refugee resettlement villages are under the jurisdiction of Chang'an County. Within." Li Shuang said.
"Well, how many villages are there for these refugees now?" What they said was correct, and Li Ke happened to ask.
"Currently, these refugees have arranged a total of ten villages, with one thousand households forming one village. They are basically within the scope of Chang'an County. However, because of the limited amount of cultivated land in Chang'an County, they have no way to allocate cultivated land." Li Shuang said. .
"I have asked some of the refugees. Some of them said that if there is vacant farmland in other counties around Chang'an City, they may be able to return to their hometowns. There are also many people who want to go back to farm. Therefore, I am here this time. Also ask His Highness what our next plan should be."
Li Ke nodded slightly. A village with one thousand households is no longer small. This is why such a large village can appear because the population near Chang'an is very concentrated. For example, in the northwest region, there may be a dozen, twenty or thirty households in one village.
There were more barren areas in the Tang Dynasty. Li Ke could actually understand the thoughts of these refugees. People have been very simple since ancient times. Chinese people have had a complex since ancient times, the land complex. Many people believe that they should not panic if they have the land in their hands. This idea has been rooted deep in the bones of the Chinese people for more than a thousand years.
Even many wealthy Chinese in later generations, who could not inherit land at home, went abroad to play farms and pastures. Isn't it still because of this complex in their bones? At least Li Ke knew that there were many people who wanted to be farmers who could pass on their inheritance, and ranchers immigrated to places like New Zealand.
If these people in ancient times had a choice, there would definitely be a lot of people who wanted land. There are not many people who can have a certain mind to stay around Chang'an City and rely on working to survive. In this era, there are really not many people.
If there are no ordinary people with no family background, few would dare to do this.
Li Ke originally wanted to leave him an explanation, but after thinking about it, Li Ke said: "I can't decide this matter. Let's do this. How to arrange the population, how to return these refugees to their hometowns, and what place is more suitable for resettlement?" Refugee, you write a memorial and give it directly to Li Tai. Isn't Li Tai the supervisor of the country now? Since the supervisor of the country has to take on more things, you put all the more important things in Chang'an County in the memorial and let him handle it. ."
"Yes." Li Shuang was a little surprised, but he nodded and agreed. He was a little confused and didn't know what His Highness King Qin was going to do, but since His Highness said so, he must do it.
As for why, there is no reason. It is very simple. The current political achievements of Chang'an County are all related to His Highness the King of Qin. His Highness the King of Qin has the final say whether Chang'an County is in chaos. Not to mention that there are approximately 40,000 refugees staying on the land of Chang'an County. There are also the Datang Welfare Industrial Zone and many people from around Chang'an who come here to work as long-term workers.
And many of these people's homes are quite far away, at least one or two hundred miles away. They can't go back every day after they come here. They all live in shacks nearby. They go back in winter and wait until spring. When it's so cold, there will be at least tens of thousands more people on the land of Chang'an County.
These people gathered together, and His Highness King Qin showed some dissatisfaction with him in his words, and he, the county magistrate, arrived.
Although he, Li Shuang, is already forty-two this year, he is already a fifth-rank official. He should have no problem reaching the position of prime minister of the Tang Dynasty at the age of sixty.
The problem with all this is that he cannot cause trouble to His Highness King Qin, otherwise, he will never be able to take this position again.
That's why Li Shuang agreed happily.
"By the way, you can start sending people to measure this land in the west of Chang'an City recently. Forget it, the New Year is coming soon. Let's start measuring after the New Year. Didn't I just have someone buy 10,000 acres of land? Behind these lands They will all be useful. Although they are not cultivated land, they still occupy part of the cultivated land. When it is no longer possible, I will give up part of it from my own land."
"But when the time comes, you can count all the land in the west of Chang'an City, it will be useful, and I will give you an opinion. From today on, all the land from Chang'an City to the industrial zone, to Qinwangzhuang, and the land I bought will be counted. Don’t sell it casually.”
"As for the problem of refugees establishing households, it is estimated that Chang'an County will be responsible for this statistical problem by then." Li Ke thought for a while and said.
"Yes, Your Highness." Li Shuang thought for a while and simply agreed.
Although he didn't know what His Highness the King of Qin was going to do, His Highness the King of Qin said that the land should not be sold casually, so don't sell it casually. Unless His Majesty orders it, it will not be easy for anyone to do it. Anyway, he, Li Shuang, comes from the Li family in Longxi, and he is not good at all from other families.
"Okay, I don't have anything to do. Chang'an County has done a very good job this year. It's the end of the year, and there must be a lot of memorials to deal with. Please hurry up and write a memorial and let Li Tai handle it. Okay , I'm leaving." Li Ke didn't say much to Li Shuang, but just got on his horse and left here.
"Send it to Your Highness." Li Shuang immediately bent down and saluted.
After leaving Li Shuang, Li Ke originally wanted to visit the orphanage today, but after thinking about it, Li Ke decided to forget it and wait until the Chinese New Year to visit them. The children's mood was more complicated. They are more emotional.
These beggars are the future! After their three views are established, it is the most difficult thing to change, so they have to take it to heart. Li Ke decided to stay vigil with these beggars to celebrate the New Year! Li Shimin will definitely return to the palace by then.
So Li Ke simply returned to his Qin Wangzhuang. Those veterans were not suitable to visit. Currently, except for more than 3,700 veterans in Chang'an City, the rest are arranged as guards in the industrial zone.
At present, it is difficult for these veterans to gather together, so Li Ke decided to use another method to write letters to them.
