The angry Xiuyan didn't know that there was a reason why Liu Xu couldn't read back.
Because at this time Liu Xu had re-entered the world of white elephant. He stayed in the world for three days, which meant that nearly a month had passed in the White Elephant World.
During this month, the entire White Elephant World maintained a rather strange state of balance.
Although the provinces next door should have known for a long time that there was a group of perverted guys in Gongsun Province who regarded their great gods as nothing, but the surrounding provinces did not express any attitude, and no experts came to investigate. mean.
Although Sun Jian and the other three forces ordered all their troops to assemble at the border, ready to respond to attacks from any province, there was no response from these provinces, which made Monk Zhanger confused.
Of course, this is definitely a good thing for Liu Xu. This month can be used to fully carry out the initial transformation of the entire Gongsun Province's population, and the first step of this transformation is to count the entire population.
In the white elephant world, there are basically no concepts such as household registration and census. Although people in the White Elephant World roughly know how many people there are in their world, these populations are actually calculated based on the population reported by each family. Even the gods themselves may not know the actual situation.
But this time, under Liu Xu's order, a vigorous census began.
In addition to one million troops guarding the border, Liu Xu mobilized a full two million troops to conduct this census.
The first census to be conducted was the population of the major upper castes. Because all these people live in cities, it is quite convenient to investigate.
However, the survey data are still somewhat inaccurate. For example, a certain noble clan reported a population of 10,000 for the first time, but after reexamination, the number became 8,000.
It’s not that these soldiers were not serious and there were such huge mistakes, but the census was undoubtedly a huge shame for these nobles, so many people directly rose up to resist, many conflicts broke out, and tens of thousands of soldiers died. people.
So the initial 10,000 people turned into 8,000 people.
But this also has the advantage that the remaining people have become very obedient, and the management order of the entire city has become more efficient.
After having this experience, the soldiers who went to the countryside to conduct the census were directly grouped together in units of thousands to guard against unexpected events.
However, the situation in the countryside is much better. First, ten soldiers will be sent to negotiate with letters, explaining that they are only doing a population survey and will not touch the village at all.
Then seeing the thousands of people gathered outside the village, each village opened its doors very friendly and rationally, inviting these soldiers and the generals who led them to conduct a basic census.
Of course, there will be some resisting villages, but as long as the resistance is not extremely fierce, the principle of not killing is generally followed to control all villagers.
But once the resistance is extremely fierce and communication cannot be successfully completed after three consecutive attempts, then all those in the village who dare to resist will be killed and eradicated.
After that, about 10 soldiers will be left in the village. In addition to delivering news and monitoring the villages, these soldiers will also do whatever they can to help the villages.
And this is another important purpose of this census operation, which is to establish certain control capabilities at the grassroots level. ŴŴŴ.
Although this control ability is definitely not too high, after all, these soldiers can only mechanically execute simple orders, but this sense of presence is unparalleled. After all, no village has ever seen that the big shots above would actually send manpower to station. As for the situation in the villages, these villages also implemented Liu Xu's orders more simply.
Thanks to the census operation over the past month, Liu Xu finally had a preliminary understanding of the situation in the entire Gongsun Province.
Of course, even if this is only a preliminary understanding, it is better than the previous high-caste big shots' understanding of the situation at the bottom.
For example, according to the data left over from Gongsun Province, the population of the entire Gongsun Province is about 4 million.
However, after a detailed census, it was found that the actual population of this province is actually about 8 million, and the actual total population is fully twice as high.
More importantly, at the request of the initially established grassroots ruling units, grassroots institutions at the village level began to study and read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Although most of the villagers are illiterate, there are even cases where no one in the entire village is literate.
But Liu Xu can send people to tell stories. Through the Zhangjia Town, which has already completed the population transformation and governance changes, and all the residents of these towns are fans of the Three Kingdoms, he can attract all the residents in these towns to be storytellers, and successfully make an average of three people. A village has a storyteller.
The daily job of these storytellers is to get up in the morning and rush to the next village, spend an evening and an afternoon telling the story of the Three Kingdoms in the village, then stay in the village for one night, and rush to the next village again the next day. village.
Such a cycle basically allows each village to have two days of listening time every week, thereby ensuring that the Romance of the Three Kingdoms progresses in each village.
