Liu Zhang, surrounded by thousands of people, began to head north.
Twenty-nine people under Cao Cao, Sun Quan, and Liu Bei quickly followed and looked around with great curiosity.
When they came to Weiyang Palace, they took the south gate.
After entering the door, you are in front of the main hall of Weiyang Palace.
I never had the opportunity to see the entire palace.
Now, I can finally appreciate it openly and gain a lot of insights!
Needless to say, Liu Bei, the general under Sun Quan.
They are just a bunch of country folk who have no chance to see what the palace looks like.
Cao Cao's subordinates did not hesitate to give in, and they all looked like they were cutting their butts with a knife.
After all, the palace in Xuchang was only slightly expanded.
In terms of scale, the entire Xuchang Palace is not even as good as a palace in the Chang'an Palace!
The Palace of the King of Qin completely inherited the palace from the Western Han Dynasty and covers a huge area!
It can even reach several times that of the Luoyang Palace of the Eastern Han Dynasty!
Compared with Xuchang Palace, it is more than a hundred times larger!
Starting from Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Western Han Dynasty, it went through expansions by several emperors until Wang Mang usurped the throne.
There are Weiyang Palace where government affairs are handled, Changle Palace where the harem is headed, Gui Palace and Beigong Palace where wives, concubines and children live.
And the Mingguang Palace, which is meant to attract gods but is actually dedicated to offering sacrifices.
When he first captured Chang'an, due to limited money and supplies and a declining population in Guanzhong, Liu Zhang only briefly repaired some rooms in Weiyang Palace, Changle Palace, Beigong, and Guigong.
Weiyang Palace only repaired the main hall of the court meeting.
For a long time, most of the rooms in Beigong and Guigong were still leaking!
After several years of large-scale relocation of people, Guanzhong's population has once again returned to more than one million.
It can be said that it has gradually regained its vitality.
Especially after personally appointing Jia Kui to control the flood, Guanzhong completely took on a new look and became a natural granary again!
In just over a year, it went from needing supplies from Yizhou to being completely self-sufficient and even able to help Liangzhou!
Completely getting rid of the infamy of corpses everywhere and purgatory on earth.
Secondly, Liangzhou developed rapidly under the governance of Lu Su, the governor.
Gradually, Yizhou and Yongzhou were no longer needed to transport supplies.
Liu Zhang's treasury suddenly became abundant.
Even so, the palace was not repaired immediately.
Liu Zhang, who had gathered most of the supplies, put the development of the Chamber of Commerce as the first step.
Stabilizing prices and ensuring people's livelihood are the top priorities.
However, the overall wealth of the Qin State and the development speed of the Guanzhong Chamber of Commerce far exceeded Liu Zhang's expectations.
In just half a year, the whole thing is on the right track.
Soon, the national treasury became extremely rich again, and there was a faint tendency of the food warehouse being exhausted.
Seeing the opportunity coming, Liu Zhang made up his mind to renovate the palace.
The State of Qin is the most powerful force in the world, and the Palace of Qin is the face of the State of Qin, and it is also the face of Qin King Liu Zhang.
If people knew that every palace, from Weiyang Palace and Changle Palace to Gui Palace and Beigong, had leaks, it would really make people laugh.
In addition, there is another reason why the palace must be repaired.
There are too many people migrating from Guanzhong, and it is impossible to properly resettle them all in a short period of time.
The people were idle and Liu Zhang could not ignore them.
We can only spend a huge amount of food and grass to feed hundreds of thousands of people.
Fortunately, when Jia Kui was dealing with floods, he recruited many civilians through work-for-relief methods.
A large part of the labor force has been temporarily solved.
And in a short period of time, the pressure on the government was greatly relieved.
Thanks to this work-for-relief program, the government got a breather and calmly settled many people.
With the completion of flood control, a huge amount of labor has been released again.
The pressure on the government suddenly became much greater.
If you want to relieve stress again, you can only do the same thing!
Start working-for-relief program again to recruit labor force!
Repairing the palace in this way can not only relieve pressure and reduce conflicts, but also mobilize a large number of civilians without wasting people and money.
For a time, people from Guanzhong swarmed in!
In the end, the labor force recruited was many times more than planned!
The project, which was originally planned to last six months, was completed in just three months.
Three months is not much time, but it gives Jing Zhaoyin time to breathe.
Wei Jian did not dare to let time pass and went all out to settle the migrating people.
So far, the people in Guanzhong have generally settled down.
As for the results of the renovation of Chang'an Palace, it can only be said to be unsatisfactory.
It's mainly Liu Zhang's problem.
Too stingy and reluctant to spend money.
The unrenovated Chang'an Palace can be described as dilapidated.
However, the restored Chang'an Palace still has nothing to do with luxury.
It is far inferior to what it looked like when it was first built in the Western Han Dynasty.
But the rain leaks, air leaks, collapses, etc., have all been dealt with.
Overall a brand new look!
Compared with when Liu Zhang first entered Chang'an City, the sky was already a different place!
Without looking too deeply, its outward scale is still breathtaking.
The area occupied is really too big!
Liu Zhang led everyone all the way north and walked for a quarter of an hour before reaching the end of Weiyang Palace.
The Changle Palace, built on the wrong side of the Weiyang Palace, can’t be seen at a glance!
However, even while walking, almost everyone was stunned.
Especially Xiahou Dun and others under Cao Cao's command secretly slandered him.
Liu Zhang was just the king of Qin, but his life was a hundred times better than that of the emperor!
His rebellious intentions are clearly revealed!
I don’t know what Liu Xie would think if he knew that the places where he lived were not as big as the latrine where Liu Zhang pooped!
After walking to the end of Weiyang Palace, the arsenal is in front of you.
In order to demonstrate his military power, Liu Zhang specifically ordered the door of the arsenal to be opened.
Everyone was able to get a glimpse of one or two of them.
As expected, the generals under the three forces were astonished by the tight guards and at the same time showed signs of covetous expression.
Looking around, there are countless armors and weapons!
Everything is reflecting bright light!
At first glance, it is a strong weapon!
Everything you see is what everyone and all forces dream of!
But in Qin State, these treasures are ordinary!
For a time, everyone felt tremendous pressure.
It comes from the huge difference in the most basic strength!
The arsenal is the place where weapons and armor are stored in the palace.
Except for the standing army, other soldiers cannot be equipped with weapons and armor.
When the guards in the palace come on duty, they need to go to the arsenal first to get their weapons.
When clicking, you need to go to the arsenal to return the weapon.
These are the rules and must be followed.
The arsenal belongs to Zhijinwu, and Zhijinwu has the same position as Jiuqing, which is extremely important.
Originally, the only official position in charge of the arsenal was the arsenal commander.
For safety reasons, Liu Zhang divided this position into two.
Set up the Wenku Ling and Wen Ku Cheng respectively.
At the same time, the arsenal chief still belonged to Zhijinwu, but the arsenal order was transferred to the Zhongling army.
As a result, no one person can control the arsenal alone.
If the history of Sima Yi's three thousand dead soldiers seizing the arsenal happened in Chang'an City, he would be strangled in the cradle!
