I raise dragons in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 184 Population Countermeasures
The people below cheered, they were proud of building the city.

On the tower, Zixuan and Yang Han were also called to the top, waiting for questioning.

Zhang Yi first asked Zixuan: "Zixuan, when will the city defense be ready?"

"My lord, after the completion of the project today, I will let those barbarian captives go up the mountain to chop firewood to make logs, and then dig stones and transport them to the tower for defense and attack."

"Very good, this matter cannot be delayed, you have to deal with it quickly, otherwise things will change!"

Now, the Golden City is still a city without city defenses. Without these defenses, the defense of the entire city becomes very weak, even with some siege weapons, such as ballistas and catapults.So be sure to get everything ready as quickly as possible, otherwise, if you encounter an enemy attack and defend the city, you may have to pay a high price.

"Yes, Lord City Master, I will proceed step by step, and arrange as many as I can!"

"Very well, this is the way to do things, everything is done."

Later, he said to Yang Han: "Yang Han, what is the progress of the [-] ballista carts and [-] trebuchets that you asked your supervisor to make before? I don't have time to visit you during this time, and I don't know how is the progress."

"My lord, I have paid a high price and recruited some capable people from the surrounding counties to put it into production. It has already progressed by one-third, and it will definitely be completed in 20 days at most."

These siege weapons are also very important. When he is not attacking others, these weapons are to be placed on the city wall to strengthen the defense of the city wall.

If so, that's good, but he remembered something.

"Very good! The speed of this weapon needs to be increased, but the quality issue must also be grasped! By the way, there is also the matter of forging weapons. How is the progress?"

Yang Handao: "According to the wishes of the city lord, we have reforged some weapons, and the results will come soon."

Soldiers must first sharpen their weapons if they want to do their job well. This is a big problem he discovered a while ago, that is, the durability of the weapons they use is not enough, so he asked Yang Han to improve it, and he simply asked today to understand.

"The sooner the better, the so-called good horse with a good saddle, my Dragon Legion also needs good weapons!"

"Yes……"

After a while, soldiers below began to maintain order.

At this time, the people below also regained their calm, because he still had something to say, a very important thing to say.

"Residents of the Golden City!"

From now on, with this kind of title, it can be regarded as particularly suitable.People are gradually accepting this name.

"I asked my subordinates to conduct a census on the population of my Golden City. Now the resident population is only over [-]! Now that my Golden City has been transformed into a city, the population is far from enough."

Population is the foundation of a city, and population is the primary productive force. Without population, everything will be empty talk.War needs people, agriculture needs people, mining needs people, no matter what you do, you need people.

Everyone looked at Zhang Yi and thought, what does he want to do.

If the population wants to grow, it is not so fast, unless the population is introduced.

As for the population issue, Zhang Yi also thought about it for a long time. This is a must if the Golden City is to develop into a large city.

In recent years, the population of the entire Eastern Han Dynasty has decreased dramatically.

Especially after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it was especially obvious.

In the troubled times, some people were forced to serve as soldiers to fight, and countless people died on the battlefield.Those who were taken to serve as soldiers were all young and middle-aged, and some old people, children and women were left behind.

Coupled with the lack of medical conditions at that time, a plague has been prevalent in recent years, and many people have died.The population is getting smaller and smaller. For a city like the Golden City, it is not bad to have 4 people.

After these problems are summed up, it is necessary to prescribe the right medicine. As the owner of this city, he has the obligation to manage the entire city well. Of course, this is also for his own sake.

For a city to prosper, in addition to agriculture, industry is also very important, and it is also a cultural industry. These are important parts of the word prosperity.

The most important thing is agriculture. He has reformed the land policy before.

Now he has a new solution.

The people who were originally calm became heated discussions again because of his words.

"Everyone be quiet and listen to me!"

"Before I carried out land reform in Golden City, everyone must have known about it, so I would like to add a few points here.

First, open up wasteland!Those who live in the city will be rewarded with a penny for every acre of wasteland reclaimed, and the grain grown on the wasteland will be recycled at a high price. The land will be your permanent property, with a limit of ten acres per capita.

Second, we funded the opening of medical clinics, free medical treatment for the poor and double for the rich.Distinguish between the poor and the rich, treat them differently, and spread some medical knowledge so that people can diagnose minor diseases by themselves.

Third, and an important point, all newcomers to our Golden City and residents of our Golden City will be directly rewarded with one sling for labor, five hundred for the old and the weak, two slings for skilled talents, and two hundred catties of food!If the introducer comes, the introducer will reward five hundred coins! "

Before increasing the population, it is also very important to stabilize the population.

Such a major reform was not something he imagined out of thin air. In fact, the reason is very simple, just two words 'support'.

With such a bonus, are you afraid that no one will come?

If you don't come again, it's because the publicity has not been done.

By pulling people's heads, the population can definitely increase rapidly. When the population reaches a certain level, he will choose the best again.

His three points are very clear, and I believe he will definitely be able to add new members to the Golden City.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, everyone became excited. This is a big deal.

After a while, the people below began to cheer. Obviously, people are very attractive to this policy.

Some have even started to try it out.

"Zhao Zilong, Zhang Liao, Tai Shici and Bao Xin!"

Four people came out.

"From now on, the policy will be implemented. You four, send people to the four gates to register newcomers every day. I will give you a special task. If you want to enter the military camp! Our army manages meals and promotions. In addition to the military salary, ten slings of money will be rewarded to his family members, and if there are no family members, it will be directly owned by him."

Now everyone is boiling, pushing the whole scene to a climax. The news Zhang Yi said is really more than one explosion. I believe that after this policy, the entire Golden City will be prosperous and the entire Dragon Army will be stronger. .He is different from the Eastern Han Dynasty because they directly recruited soldiers.
