Daming: Let you build roads, you have access to highways throughout the country

The great drought in the land of the Three Jins soon spread to Zhu Rong’s ears, one step earlier than the imperial court knew the news.

He had long been preparing for the drought in Shanxi and sent his eyes in advance to inquire about the situation.

Zhu Rong sighed, sure enough, as he expected. For now, the most important thing is to deal with the impending mass of displaced people.

Whether it is building asphalt roads, building houses to make money, or building the Qi Royal Mansion, the important order must be pushed back.

Zhu Rong only knew that there would be a severe drought in Shanxi, but he had no confidence in his heart about how many displaced people would come, and whether the grain he had prepared could cope with it.

This is different from a family opening their mouths to eat, this is tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of mouths!

On the one hand, Zhu Rong joined forces with Tie Xuan, the envoy of Jinan Province, to levy royal taxes and send all the grain he had to Qingzhou.

In Tie Xuan’s eyes, it was only a small move of the greedy prince, and he did not take it to heart.

The king of the clan collected royal taxes, and the monkeys were anxious about anything, and the taxes paid to the imperial court did not begin. But Tie Xuan knew that he was also stained with the light of His Royal Highness King Qi, thinking that it would not be long before Zhu Yuanzhang’s praise would come down, and he might even be promoted to an official and enter the court, which was all related to the bumper potato harvest.

Therefore, it is very cooperative.

On the other hand, Zhu Rong sent soldiers to cut wood deep in the mountains. Prepare to build porridge sheds and temporary shelters.

Once the displaced people arrived, they were resolutely not allowed to enter the city.

Once a large number of displaced people pour into the city, it will trigger a large number of contradictions, cause public security plagues and other difficult to control situations, so it is necessary to properly resettle the displaced people outside Qingzhou City.

Once the displaced people of the Three Jin Dynasties entered Qidi, they would beg all the way from west to east.

No matter which state or county, it will certainly not be able to accommodate so many displaced people.

The displaced people will go all the way east to Qingzhou City, and he wants to solve all the problems of displaced people outside Qingzhou City, and not allow further spread to the east to ensure the overall stability of the land of Qilu.

At the same time, let the caravan contact the landlord and farmer who signed the contract in advance, and after the second harvest of potatoes, they will immediately send thirty percent of the income, as well as the royal tax, to Qingzhou City as quickly as possible!

Now in the land of the three Jins, only the disaster has been confirmed, the people have not yet reached the point of displacement, and when they come to Qidi, the second stubble of potatoes is estimated to have been harvested.

At the same time, invite the doctors of the prefectures and counties east of Qingzhou City to Qingzhou City as much as possible in case of emergency.

Even if you take precautions, there will certainly be many victims who will starve to death and disease, and even in winter, it may not be able to solve it.

It is necessary to strictly prevent the occurrence of plague to avoid the expansion of disasters.

And all actions must be supported by silver.

He is also full of expectations for the 200,000 silver taels that will be handed over, and he plans to use the 200,000 silver taels to purchase a large amount of grain to cope with the disaster.

Although the harvest of crops such as wheat is not satisfactory, the potatoes he laid out in advance will have a bumper harvest, and the sweet potatoes will almost reach the harvest season when the displaced people arrive.

Now, the landlords and peasants involved in the cultivation of potatoes and sweet potatoes, with 70% of the income in their hands, will definitely not be able to eat, and directly buy them with silver, striving to hoard as much grain as possible before the merchants raise prices.

Whether the land of Qilu paid potato taxes or the grain purchased by the caravan of the Qi royal palace, it was sent back to Qingzhou City one car after another.

At the same time, the price of grain in Qilu is also rising moderately, and it is not yet the moment for displaced people to enter, most of the merchants have not reacted, and when the displaced people influx in large numbers, the price will skyrocket.

At that time, even if you had money, you might not be able to buy food.

No matter what dynasty, merchants who make catastrophic fortunes are always everywhere, simply uncontrollable, and high profits will make people get carried away, even at the risk of killing their heads.

This is caused by human nature, and Zhu Rong cannot change it, and can only hope that he has fallen in advance step by step.

Jiang Yin Hou was very dissatisfied with this: “Your Highness, our cellar is full, why do you still buy so much grain?” ”

Zhu Rong just smiled and explained: “Father-in-law, is there still too much food?” ”

Jiangyin Hou was unimpressed: “Instead of buying grain, it is better to buy land directly.” ”

After all, this is an era dominated by agriculture, whether it is ordinary people or merchants, or landlords, or bureaucrats, or even imperial relatives and relatives, with rich money in hand, the first reaction is to buy land, until it exceeds the target set by the imperial court.

In these years, without hyping the house, good land is hard currency.

Jiangyin Hou became famous, and after development, he bought a large amount of land for the Wu family.

Zhu Rong did not explain too much, while Jiangyin Hou urged Zhu Rong: “Hurry up and pack your bags, ready to return to Beijing at any time, since the emperor has agreed to let you return to the capital to get married, then, you must seize this opportunity, try to stay in the capital, and find ways to enter the court again.” ”
