Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 367
Yulin County and Cangwu County are mountainous, and only the fertile land on both sides of the river is suitable for growing rice. Fortunately, the climate is warmer than Jingnan, and the time for grain to mature is greatly shortened. Arrange for planting supplementary food.

In the past few years, the agronomy students cultivated by Quanling School have been transferred by Lantian to various counties and townships in Jiaozhou for guidance. They not only brought new planting and composting techniques, but also brought new grain varieties cultivated in the experimental fields. .

Lantian asked each county to build a Mongolian school. Each family could choose to send an eight-year-old child to the county school to study and practice calligraphy. The county paid for the board and lodging within two years.

The reason why the two-year compulsory education cannot be fully popularized is not only that the financial resources of the counties in Jiaozhou cannot support it, but also the people's ideological concepts have not changed. After all, the eight-year-old child can already help the family with work, and besides lighting a fire and cooking, he can also go up the mountain Herding cattle and collecting firewood is the secondary labor force in the family.

Lantian knew that he couldn’t become a fat man with one breath, so he first promoted reading and literacy as much as possible. When the basic education reached a certain scale, he could use the imperial examinations to break the monopoly of the gentry. It is very difficult to realize, but it should be able to be piloted in Jiaozhou in the lifetime.

The climate in Jiaozhou is humid, hot and rainy, and mosquito bites often cause diseases. In addition to promoting basic education, Lantian also set up government clinics in various counties, and students trained by Hua Tuo in the medical school provided consultations.

All the cadres selected from the Book and Newspaper Office were sent to counties and townships to serve as parents' officials to implement a series of new policies in Jiaozhou. Lantian planned to increase food production and control the early death of the people due to illness, so that Cangwu and Yulin The population of the two counties has increased, and Meng Xuetang has cultivated the habit of people receiving education.

After Xiahou compiled many decrees on behalf of Lantian, officials from various counties walked out of the room with apprehension. Although Lantian's name is very famous in Lingling, it will have to be tried in Jiaozhou to know whether it will work or not.

After all the officials of Cangwu County left the room, Yuan Chen, the prefect of Yulin, remained in the room.

Lan Tian told Yuan Chen: "Prefect Yuan, don't worry. After the trial at Cangwu is successful, I will gradually send more people to Yulin County. You should go back and familiarize yourself with the environment first. There are many Yue ethnic groups living in Yulin County. Habits are different, and the strategy of using barbarians to control barbarians can be used to stabilize the hearts of the people."

Although Lantian has been preparing for many years in Lingling, the talents he has reserved are obviously not enough to really paint on the white paper of Jiaozhou.

"General Lai has handed over to the humble post. Although Yulin County is relatively poor, the political situation is still relatively stable. There has been no siege of the government for a long time." Yuan Chen replied.

"Then keep it up. Prefect Yuan doesn't have to rush to replace the officials appointed by General Lai before, let alone impose exorbitant taxes on the people because of the poverty of the counties and counties. I will find a way to help Yu Lin if it is really difficult." Lan Tian gave Yuan He was vaccinated.

"Thank you for your support, my lord, and I guarantee that everything in Yulin will be as it was before." Yuan Chen was overjoyed after hearing that, Lingling is now very rich, and is about to help the impoverished Yulin County, just a sentence from Lantian.

After talking about the business, Lan Tian asked curiously again: "Has Deshun (Lai Gong) packed up? When are you going to leave for Shu?"

"General Lai came to Guangxin with the humble officer, and now he is waiting in the side hall behind the main hall." Yuan Chen replied.

Lan Tian looked puzzled: "Deshun (Lai Gong) came to Guangxin? Where are his family members?"

Yuan Wei: "General Lai's passenger ship is berthed at Guangxin Wharf, and all his family's luggage has been loaded on board. He intends to go up the river and transfer in Shi'an."

Lan Tian frowned: "Isn't it faster to walk from Bushan to Tanshui? Why did he detour from Guangxin?"

"General Lai worshiped the ruler very much, and he said that he had to come to say goodbye before entering Shu." Yuan Chen explained.

"Deshun is really good." Lan Tian sighed and continued: "Come with me to meet him, so as not to save his family members from waiting on the boat for a long time."

"Wei." Yuan Chen cupped his fists.

Lan Tian and Yuan Chen walked out of the front hall of the main hall, and walked back along the path on the right side of the courtyard. There stood a row of parallel houses, which was the place where Cangwu prefect Xia Houzuan and his staff worked.

The side hall on the far right side of the townhouse is a place for officials to rest and chat. It is similar to the living room of the office of later generations. exist.

"Aren't you supposed to be in the South China Sea? Why are you here?" Lan Tian asked suspiciously.

Hu Ke clasped his fists and replied solemnly: "I came here on orders from a humble position. Just now, my husband was dealing with important matters in the main hall, and I was talking with General Lai in the side hall."

Lai Gongjin said: "I was talking about the past with Captain Hu just now, I don't know when we will meet again."

Lan Tian nodded at Lai Gong, and then asked Hu Ke: "Are you in a hurry about Shi Hui? If you're not in a hurry, go to the main hall and wait for me first. I'll talk to Deshun for a while and go find you."

"It's not urgent at all, sir, we'll talk about it after we're done with important matters." Hu Ke looked relaxed, and walked out of the side hall alone after speaking.

"Lieutenant Hu is very smart, he is as good as Shi Xie and his son, like a tide in the sea." Lai Gong looked at Hu Ke's back and sighed.

"Deshun always praises people wherever he goes. You are very similar to Pang Shiyuan. Have you seen him in Chengdu before?" Lan Tian asked with a smile.

Lai Gong replied: "I am fortunate to have met Shi Yuan twice. He is really a brilliant man. This time he will be closer to Shu when he enters Shu."

Lan Tian nodded affirmatively at first, and then asked Yuan Chen, "Is there anything else you want to tell Governor Yuan? Why don't you tell Governor Yuan this opportunity?"

Lai Gong smiled slightly: "I've finished what I need to say. In fact, it's the easiest thing to do with my husband. You just need to follow the orders step by step, and there will be no mistakes."

Yuan Chen clasped his fists and nodded: "I will remember it in my heart at the end."

"Prefect Yuan can go back first if he has nothing to do. Yu Lin should still have a lot of government affairs, so forgive me for not being able to send him away."

"Don't dare, dare, I will leave this humble position."

Yuan Chen didn't dare to ask Lan Tian to see him off. After bowing and saluting, he quickly walked out of the side hall, ready to bid farewell to his old friend Xia Houzuan, and then returned to Bushan by boat to be his prefect of Yulin.

Lan Tian and Lai Gong exchanged a few words, and then whispered before leaving: "When Deshun arrives in Chengdu, please tell the lord that although Yizhou is still recuperating at this time, it must be prepared for the layout of Hanzhong. Cao Cao will give priority to attacking Yongliang after he calms down. Zhang Lu, blocking the passage from Yizhou north to the Central Plains, taking Hanzhong from Zhang Lu or taking Hanzhong from Cao Cao, everyone knows which is easier or more difficult."

"Sir, every word is very important, and I will definitely tell the master exactly." Lai Gong sincerely admired Lan Tian. This should be a strategy to win thousands of miles away. Although he is in Jiaozhou, he still does not forget thousands of miles away. Hanzhong.
