Champa rice was successfully planted in Lingnan and Jiaozhi, and began to spread to Chengdu, Jiangdong and Huainan.

This thing has great advantages. Even in the north of the Yangtze River, it has advantages over traditional rice varieties. It has a large yield and a short growth cycle. The key is not to pick a place, and it has tenacious vitality.

These two areas have also become the granary of Daqin.

Decades of confrontation between Wei and Wu made Jianghuai a no-man's land.

No-man's land has the benefits of no-man's land, a piece of white paper, you can do whatever you want, there is no resistance in the place.

The construction of seagoing ships is not a matter of one or two days.

But the rice from Jianghuai and Jingxiang was soon imported into Guanzhong.

Yang Zheng can also eat a bowl of fragrant rice, with the dried sea fish tribute from Jiaozhou, which has a special flavor.

Dried fish is a major specialty of Jiaoguang.

Inexhaustible, inexhaustible, in the sea of ​​this era, all kinds of fish are simply overrun.

People from the north rode horses, people from the south took boats.

The meat in the north is mainly mutton. People in this era are very repulsive to pork. They dislike pigs and Tibetans. They are eaten by low-class people.

Yang Zheng has also seen the common people's pigsty, and to be honest, he was also disgusted, and it is completely different from the pigsty of later generations.

After the dried sea fish entered Guanzhong, it immediately became a delicacy.

It can be boiled, steamed, and crushed...

On a whim, Yang Zheng crushed the rice to make rice noodles, put it in a cauldron and boiled it with minced meat and dried fish, picked it up, sprinkled it with garlic, poured a spoonful of hot sheep oil and butter, and a bowl of rice noodles was ready.

Anything the emperor likes will immediately cause a wave in Daxing.

This way of eating was quickly learned by the people, adding a delicacy to Daxing City.

It's a pity that there is no chili in this era, so dried shrimp and fish can only be used to enhance freshness.

Folk creativity is always endless. When rice noodles came out, so did wheat noodles. Guanzhong’s traditional delicacy, oil-splashed noodles, emerged as the times require, and became the national and folk delicacy of Daqin.

It is loved by people from all over the world.

Hu merchants, Mobei people, and plateau people are full of praise when they eat it.

It was quite expensive at the beginning, and a bowl of rice noodles was sold for hundreds of dollars under the banner of the imperial secret.

Making money like this, people flocking to do business, the price gradually dropped, fifty dollars, forty dollars, twenty dollars...

As soon as the oil-splashed noodles came out, the business of rice noodles was directly broken, and it became three yuan a bowl.

The two kinds of food quickly spread across the country, and the recipe quickly acquired local characteristics.

Daxing City has also gradually become like a melting pot, where various styles of things from the south, east, and north are fused together.

There has been no war in Daqin in the past few years, and the whole country has devoted themselves to farming and grazing. The hunger problem has finally been alleviated to a certain extent.

The common people can finally have a bite of food.

Yang Zheng is particularly concerned about natural and man-made disasters in the local area. Whenever people starve to death, it will have a great negative impact on the performance of local officials.

On the contrary, if the local population increases, it will be used as the standard for the first promotion of local officials.

Populations don't lie.

The numbers reported by each county newspaper will be recalculated by the calculation staff of the Literature Museum based on the taxes paid and the average land.

Once the data does not match, the Zhenfu Division, Xuanyi Division, and Yushitai will use a three-pronged approach to check the local area from head to toe.

The population of the whole country is constantly growing, which shows that the general environment of Daqin is still acceptable.

Don’t forget your hunger when you are full, and be prepared for any danger. Food reserves will be related to the fate of the country in future generations.

Yang Zheng ordered the construction of four major granaries in various places.

Huayin built Guangtong Warehouse to store grain imported from the Guandong to Guanzhong. This warehouse is also the largest, with a maximum capacity of 1000 million shi grains.

Yanmen County built Yinshan Warehouse to manage Monan and support Mobei at any time.

Dunhuang built the Yumen Warehouse to radiate the Western Regions.

Haidong warehouse was built in Bohai County.

The four major granaries are not under the jurisdiction of the local area, but directly under the jurisdiction of the Warehouse Department. The main function is to transport the grain from the south to the north.

Each granary is built behind Xiongguan or in the strong city.

In the event of a famine, you can directly open a warehouse to release grain.

In the event of local rebellion or invasion by foreign enemies, Daxing's central army can respond quickly, without the need for "the three armies have not moved, and the food and grass go first."

Along with the granary, the local water transport industry has risen rapidly.

It is undoubtedly a huge and long-term project to send grain from the south of the Yangtze River and the middle of Sichuan Province to the north. It takes half a year to go back and forth. If corvee is imposed, it will naturally hurt the people.

Yang Zheng simply let go and allowed the private sector to undertake water transport affairs.

Logistics has been an industry that has attracted employment since ancient times. A water transportation line is an ecological chain that can create 10,000+ jobs and support 10,000+ families.

The imperial court obtained strategic reserves, and the common people obtained stable jobs, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

The wages are directly given to hard currency food.

Yang Zheng did not seek to fill up the four major granaries in a short period of time, mainly to form a virtuous circle, strengthen the connection between the north and the south, and revitalize the economy.

Now Jianghuai, Jingxiang, Lingnan, and Jiaozhi are vast and sparsely populated, and they can't consume so much food. Instead of accumulating mold in the local area, it is better to use it to create the lifeline of water transportation.

In the future, the north with a large population will naturally flow into the south with a small population along the water transportation line.

By the way, develop the shipbuilding industry, which will serve multiple purposes.

The water transportation line is also the best channel to enter the army. From north to south, from west to east, it basically goes down the river.

Qin, Han and Wei have built a complete canal system, which can be used by Daqin.

The Qin Dynasty had Zhengguo Canal, Dujiangyan and other water conservancy systems, and the Han Dynasty built many canals on this basis.

In order to unify Hebei, Cao Cao built a large number of canals to transport grain and grass.

In order to suppress the Eastern Wu's attack on the Huaihe River, Sima Yi adopted Deng Ai's strategy to build canals in Xingpi, divert the Yellow River to the Huaihe River, pass through the canals for [-] miles, and irrigate [-] hectares of land. Down the canal, you can reach Shouchun and Hefei in an instant, and directly suppress the Tianling Gai of Soochow with a slap.

Deng Ai's strategy of building canals in Huainan and Huaibei laid a solid foundation for the rise of Jianghuai.

The Pei of the year is now fully paid by the Tuntian Division.

After conferring rewards and defeating Wu's army, the Tuntian Division still had more than [-] high-grade fields in its hands.

After the Champa rice was planted, the crops simply sprang out.

Therefore, Yang Zheng didn't need to spend much time on the Jianghuai canal. The local government would levy corvee every winter to dredge it and widen it.

Canals are actually the blood vessels of ancient dynasties.

"It's a pity for Deng Ai." Looking at the sand table in Huainan, Yang Zheng couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

Although they were your life-and-death enemies back then, there was nothing they could do about each other's masters.

If Deng Ai didn't go to Sima Yi, it would be very difficult for a farming man to have a bright future.

"Deng Ai's grandson, Deng Lang, was sent to the Western Regions as a slave, and he is still alive." Wei Guan reminded.

"Then pardon him, give him 300 million yuan, and order him to return to his hometown, with an average of [-] acres of land." Yang Zheng has always disliked the fact that his family is united, and Deng Ai has made great contributions to China.

Even if Deng Ai has a grudge against Da Qin, it is already the third generation, so there is no need to hold on to it.

Besides, when he died on the battlefield in a dignified manner, it is not a matter of great hatred and deep bitterness.

Keeping a ray of incense for Deng Ai can also be regarded as accumulating some evil virtues for the old Yang family.
