Chapter 0074: [Wei Wu Whip] Affecting Qianqiu’s Infrastructure!!!

Six Years of Han Jian’an (201)

Spring.

Grass grows warblers fly.

The spring breeze wakes up with wine, and the yang bird spits out clear sounds.

Qing Yu led a large group of people and horses for spring plowing.

Yingchuan’s tuntian is already on the right track, and Qingyu has set up several tuntian captains.

Tasks are properly assigned and the division of labor is clear.

The people were enthusiastic and sang songs and toil in the fields.

A family of several people, busy.

Full and comfortable!

Qing Yu felt the smile of the people and felt satisfied.

This is life!

It is more important that the people can live a stable life than anything else.

Order in the Central Plains has been restored.

According to Qing Yu’s estimates, it will be difficult for war to break out in Yanzhou and Yuzhou in the next ten years, or even decades.

Stable order means the acceleration of production! Qingyu has encountered a new bottleneck in development.

There is not enough population!

At all times, labor is fundamental to survival.

The Central Plains experienced the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the Dong Zhuo Rebellion, and the Xiaoice River period, and grain production plummeted.

Great Depression!

Not to mention the most terrifying typhoid epidemic.

The land of the Central Plains, ten rooms and nine empty.

Now, with the explosive growth of grain, the people of the Central Plains do not have to live a life of hunger and cold.

Every household has surplus food!

The grain hoarded in the warehouses of the official palace alone was enough for the people under the imperial court to eat for three years.

Qing Yu’s mission has completed a small part.

But far from enough!

In order to increase the population, Qingyu wrote to the imperial court to encourage the people to give birth.

As long as there are three children under the age of thirteen in the family, they can be exempted from taxes and servitude.

Most of the income of the Prime Minister’s House comes from military tun and civilian tun.

The reduced taxes would hardly affect Cao Cao’s rule.

On the contrary, it weakened the taxes of the imperial court.

Cao Cao had no reason not to agree.

He tried his best to get ahead of the crowd and passed Qing Yu’s plan! Unwavering execution!

Only population growth can meet production and development.

If Cao Cao’s policy had stopped there, he would not have been called a hero.

He issued a series of decrees: “My rebel soldiers, put an end to the riots under the world.” ”

“The people of the old land, the death and mourning are exhausted, and the country travels all day long, and they do not see what they know, so that the enlightenment is sad.”

“His righteous soldiers have come, and the soldiers have no latter, and beg their relatives to come after.”

“Teach the soil field, the official will plow the cattle, and the teacher will teach it.”

“Build a temple for the survivors, so that their ancestors may have souls and spirits, why hate me after a hundred years!”

This roughly means that soldiers who died fighting for the country will pass from relatives if they have no descendants.

The government gave land and cattle, and set up school buildings to arrange for schooling.

Build a family temple for the people to sacrifice to their ancestors.

Ancient Wuhou is a very serious problem.

Cao Cao continued the incense for the soldiers who died in battle.

And if the official government gives the field, how can the relatives of the soldiers refuse? This is also a redistribution of land!

Since ancient times, in the late period of feudal dynasties, land annexation will be serious.

When the people have no land, the better ones become tenants, and the unlucky ones can only be known.

Social turmoil was born.

Every war is also a plan for the land.

Cao Cao encouraged the people to give birth and gave preferential treatment to the relatives of fallen soldiers.

Stabilized people’s hearts!

Looking at the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu, only the economy of the north is the most stable! It was thanks to a series of policies by Cao Cao.

He has already laid out the framework.

Not only that, but Cao Cao also ordered local government offices to conduct a census and complete the measurement of land.

He’s going to implement the New Deal!

To this end, Cao Cao also found Xun Yu, Qing Yu, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Jia Xu, Cheng Yu and others for discussion.

“For a long time, the imperial court has collected taxes on the head, which is a great burden for the people.”

“Wait until the land is clearly verified, and start collecting taxes with the land!”

Cao Cao is full of spirit and has unparalleled courage.

What does such reform mean? Very simple.

The people had no assets and were poor.

Down and out!

What can you receive by collecting taxes from them? Wool does not!

This will only force the people to rebel, or flee deep into the mountains and become exiles.

After all, they are not capable of paying taxes!

And the gentry who occupy the most land, the family, are also taxed according to the head.

For them, it’s just a year!

Cao Cao taxed land, which to put it bluntly, added taxes to the families and wealthy gentry.

They occupy the most land in the Han dynasty, but pay the lowest taxes.

By what?

If Cao Cao’s knife is cut down, I am afraid that the family family will be unlucky.

When the Han Dynasty field tax was at its lowest, there were 30 taxes and 1.

But this is a time of peace, and it is also a time of stability. In troubled times, resources are tilted towards war.

At present, the general tax in the imperial court is ten taxes and three! One acre of land needs to be harvested three percent.

Very overbearing.

“Those who have a state and a family do not suffer from the few but from inequality.”

It is the first sentence in Cao Cao’s “Order to Collect Field Rent”!

Qing Yu did not expect a bumper harvest of grain, so Cao Cao made a strategic adjustment in advance.

Taxes on land in advance!

In history, he only carried out such a strategic awakening after he opened Yecheng?

Of course, avoid the Yingchuan Group!

In the end, Yingchuan Group is still an alliance of the family family.

By taxing land now, Cao Cao is provoking their interests! Even Qing Yu felt that Cao Cao at this moment was very powerful!

It’s also inflated.

Yuan Shao is not dead yet.

What if the family family is provoked and rolls over? It’s good to wait for the opening of the mansion Yecheng, and then go back to clean up the family.

In this way, too, there is no delay.

Just a few years!

After Xun Yu and Xun Yu listened, they frowned.

Cheng Yu felt that trouble was coming!

Why?

Cheng Yu is now the representative of Yanzhou Master! Qing Yu and Jia Xu are relatively calm.

Qing Yu only has a 5,000-acre manor, and if you want to harvest it, you can collect it! For him, it doesn’t hurt or itch.

But the land occupied by the Yingchuan Xun clan is calculated according to ‘hectares’.

The manor is connected and can circle around Xu Chang!

This is not Xun Yu, Xun Yu can decide.

Their clan is huge!

Xun Yu, Xun Yu is inside, they can only act as juniors.

The family provides for them for the benefit of the family.

Guarantee the prosperity and revival of the family!

They received such an education from an early age and enjoyed the resources of the family.

If you don’t protect the interests of the family now, you will be poked in the spine when you go back!

Cao Cao looked around and found that everyone was silent, and he couldn’t help but ask, “Fengxiao, what do you think?” ”

Guo Jia is also thousands of acres of land, a tired bone, basically does not care about that little output.

But the problem was that Xun Yu recommended him.

The grace of recommendation.

It’s like reinventing!

How could Guo Jia be embarrassed to be on such a critical issue, Ka Xunyu’s neck?

“Your subordinate wants to hear Jing Jun’s opinion.”

Guo Jia squeezed his eyebrows and quickly asked Qing Yu to help.

Cao Cao really hurt Guo Jia and moved his gaze to Qing Yu.

Xun Yu, Xun Yu and the others’ attention also turned around.

Everyone’s eyes are hot!

The average person has long been unable to bear it.

Qing Yu Long Zhang Fengzi, generous, stepped forward and saluted: “Prime Minister! ”

“The pattern is smaller.”

Cao Cao was stunned and asked, “What do you mean by this?” ”

“Please Prime Minister Yu answer a few questions, are the people short of food?”

“There is no shortage of it.”

“Is the imperial court short of food?”

“There is no shortage either.”

“Isn’t it a bit too hasty for Cheng to carry out land reform?”

Qing Yu’s words woke up Cao Cao.

Reform is about generating income! There is no need to rush!

Now the tax on land does give the benefits to the people.

But that little benefit is not worth the big effort! The time is not ripe.

It’s good to wait for the opening of the little bully mansion, and then go to this kind of offending thing.

“The real worry of the imperial court now is how to deal with the 300,000 prisoners in Hebei.”

“If you let them go in vain, it will easily become a disaster. If you keep them locked up, you will also waste food. ”

“His subordinates thought that they should mobilize these prisoners and dig ditches to penetrate the Qianpi Tuntian Capital.”

Qing Yu gushed endlessly, drawing a new direction for Cao Cao’s development.

The production of grain increased, and the imperial court did not lack food.

The real obstacle, then, is how to get food to where it’s needed

Since ancient times, Caoyundu has occupied a pivotal position in the Central Plains Dynasty.

Cao Wei is a typical representative!

Cao Cao opened several artificial canals in his lifetime, which constituted the water system transportation of the North China Plain!

Later, Cao Pi and Cao Ying continued to expand on the basis of the original! Cao Wei’s national strength also flourished.

Why do most historians think that Cao Wei is orthodox?

In addition to inheriting the state from the Han Dynasty, there is also a far-reaching impact on the development of the Central Plains!

“Jia Hou Qu”.

“Wooing the Trench”.

“Guangcaoqu”.

“Thousand Golden Canal”.

“Huaiyang Canal”.

“Hundred foot canal”.

……

What was Liu Bei doing at the same time? Make big money.

Use ‘straight hundred money’ and ‘peaceful hundred money’ to plunder the wealth of the people.

In order to fight inflation, Cao Wei ordered the removal of Li Baht money.

That is, directly traded with grain and cloth, and the imperial court did not recognize five baht money! This stabilizes the market.

That’s the gap!

Liu Bei never brought well-being to the people of Shuzhong.

Only a war with a weak blow to the strong!

Sacrifices are inevitable.

What Qing Yu wants to do now is to use these 300,000 laborers to build a water network in the Central Plains.

He was very hungry for such labor.

Qing Yu’s concept is fully in line with Cao Cao’s plan for the construction of Caoyun.

The two hit it off.

“Good.”

“, hand over these 300,000 laborers to Jing Jun.”

“And let Xiahou Wei lead the army to take care of it!”

Cao Cao agreed.

The construction of the canal is beneficial in the dry autumn!

This is not only as simple as water transportation, but also water conservancy facilities along the way, which must also be built on a large scale!

In this way, countless fertile fields will break through the ground.

It’s mushrooming!

In the Central Plains, there will no longer be any worries about food.

Until the population growth exceeds 100 million!

But it’s extremely tough!

At its strongest, the population was about 50 or 60 million.

Now in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, it experienced several natural and man-made disasters, and the population plummeted.

Qing Yu estimated that now the Central Plains can have a population of 30 million, which is already good!

White bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles.

No kidding!

Such a population is completely insufficient to rule the whole world.

Therefore, population planning must also be carried out to the end!

With the surge in food, order was stable.

Qing Yu believes that the population will be able to recover as soon as possible! For this, he still needs to work hard!

Such a large-scale operation, Qingyu certainly needs help.

He called the Great Sinong Mansion, as well as all the subordinate officials.

Including Cao Ang, Fang Xuan, Tian Feng, etc.!

Frustrated and Tian Feng had a strong personality and remained a little loyal to Yuan Shao.

Just like that, it’s hard for them to accept!

So, they decided to follow Qingyu and benefit the people.

In this way, it will not be against Yuan Shao, contrary to the righteousness of the monarch.

Cao Cao waved his hand and generously agreed.

As a result, Qingyu’s infrastructure brigade was established.

Nearly 400,000 personnel!

Xiahou Wei led an army of 50,000 and was responsible for supervising this group of laborers.

Commonly known as Overseer!

Qing Yu and Cao Ang were in charge of planning, Fang Shu, and Tian Feng was in charge of implementation.

They are in Hebei and have great prestige.

Frustrated was once the commander of the three armed forces, and many of these servitudes were his old ministry!

In this big construction, Qingyu promised that after three years, he would definitely give them freedom.

If they were willing to stay, the imperial court would give them fields!

According to Qing Yu’s estimate, three years later, he would almost take Yecheng.

“All the laborers involved in the construction of the canal have three meals a day, and each meal must be a rice ball, and there can be no gruel!”

“Working four hours a day, it is not allowed to exceed the time, and the excess time must be reported, authorized by me, Frustrated, and Tian Feng!”

“For every six days of work, you can take one day off! Activities are organized by battalions! ”

After Qing Yu promulgated the conditions, Tian Feng was stunned.

Is this the treatment of servitude?

Is this the treatment of servitude? Except for no wine and no meat!

It’s even more fragrant than being a soldier in Hebei! This subverts the perception of frustration.

Isn’t labor used if it does not die, but it is used in death? How can you give them a respite?

Working four hours a day and taking a day off? Isn’t this the life of the gods?

Farming is harder than this!

Frustrated, he swallowed his saliva and said in a deep voice: “Junhou, is this true? ”

“Cao Ang! Announced in black and white! Post a notice and send someone to read it to the labor force! ”

Qing Yu ordered.

“Okay!”

“I’ll arrange it now!”

Cao Ang was ready to go.

Frustrated, he said in shock: “Three meals a day, is there enough food?” ”

A person consumes thirty stone grain in one year!

According to the standard of twenty stones consumed a year, these labors also cost six million stones!

It’s ruthless.

The scalp is numb.

“Hahaha!”

“There is enough grain management, Cao Gong rewarded the three armies, and they all spent nearly 30 million stone grain!”

Qing Yu’s words made Frustrated feel that food was worthless.

“Yingchuan Tuntian can bring 100 million stone of revenue to the imperial court a year, which is still Cao Gong’s reduction of the tax ratio.”

Frustrated, he suddenly felt lonely! Qing Yu did not continue to explain.

Ordinary fields, acres yield two or three stones.

Now it has been replaced with cultivated rice and wheat, and the yield per acre can reach ten stone.

That’s the advantage!

When the labor is ready, Xia Hou Wei is responsible for overall supervision!

After such favorable conditions were conveyed, the captives in Hebei showed incredible looks.

No way?

Cao Cao wouldn’t be painting flatbread and then killing them all, right? At one point it caused panic.

It wasn’t until Frustrated, Tian Feng, and Cao Angqi came forward that the laborers believed the facts.

In order to stabilize people’s hearts, Qingyu implemented the standard of three meals a day in advance.

Now let the servants spread their legs and run, none of them will run!

It’s just that their food is too monotonous, and Qingyu allows them to open their own vegetable garden.

Unfortunately, the seeds are not easy to provide, and can only meet the needs of some people.

So all kinds of flour, steamed cakes to eat, there are a variety of appearances.

Maybe it will trigger a food reform!

Qingyu let them study, and now he needed to determine the construction site.

The first aqueduct.

Qing Yu decided to build Suiyang Canal!

That is, to use the ancient Suishui of Suiyang County to communicate with Bian, Huai.

“The past is more than a thousand years, Wei Wu wields the whip, and there is a legacy in the east of the jieshi. Wei Wu’s first whip was drawn on Suiyang Canal! ”

Since the seventh year of Jian’an, Cao Cao has successively opened six canals on the North China Plain!

Qing Yu now wants to show them one by one in advance! This is an important channel for transporting troops and grain.

With Cao Ang and others, he explored the river and distributed manpower.

300,000 slaves, that is, 300,000 troops.

Qing Yu was on the drawing, densely marked.

Frustrated, Tian Feng looked at it and was amazed.

Is this going to open this canal in a month? That’s not enough!

There are also the construction of water conservancy, which are well marked along the way.

Counties and counties everywhere need to contribute manpower and material resources to participate in canal access.

Qing Yu will decide on some nodes of transportation according to the contribution of each county.

It may be able to affect the rise and fall of a county for decades!
