Chapter 101 The Great Migration of Millions of People

The meeting was still chaired by Mr. Wu, the chief minister.

As soon as it came up, a series of personnel adjustments were announced.

Mr. Wu resigned from his concurrent position as Chief of the General Department and was replaced by Shangguan Wan'er, which also allowed Shangguan Wan'er to take the position of Tang Jing's steward.

Tang Xueqian serves as Secretary General of the Department of Science, Education, Culture and Health.

Zeng Huai, one of the nine sons of Chongxian Hall, serves as the chief of the Logistics Department under the Military Affairs Administration.

The Military Affairs Administration consists of the Staff Department, the Military Intelligence Department, the Military Service Department and the Logistics Department. The director, Qin Shuang, also serves as the director of the Military Intelligence Department, and the remaining three departments are all deputy departments in charge of their work.

As of today.

The Logistics Department finally has a real chief officer.

besides.

The Lord's Mansion will also add a Taxation Department, a Penalty Department and a Supervision Department.

The Taxation Department is mainly responsible for the collection and management of taxation and related non-tax revenue. Although the responsibilities of the previously established Finance Department sound somewhat similar, they are actually different.

Simply put.

The Taxation Department is only responsible for tax collection and has a relatively single responsibility. The Finance Department is the fiscal steward of the territory and is responsible for managing various revenue and expenditures, preparing budgets, and formulating fiscal and taxation development plans and a series of other matters.

One is only responsible for collecting taxes, and the other is responsible for managing the use and management of territory funds.

Obviously the Financial Secretary has more important powers, but with the development of the territory's commerce, the existence of the Taxation Department is also very necessary.

It can be regarded as a means of fiscal and tax separation.

The Criminal Division is mainly responsible for criminal matters such as trials.

In conjunction with the previously established Department of Public Security, one is responsible for investigation and arrests, and the other is responsible for trials to avoid concentrating power in one agency.

The Supervision Department is mainly responsible for the daily supervision of officials.

This is the same original intention as the previous establishment of the Department of Civil Affairs. With the increase in the number of territorial officials, it is of course necessary to establish a similar supervisory agency.

Can’t we expect everyone to realize that they are not?

Li Min, one of the nine sons of Chongxian Hall, was appointed as the Chief of the Taxation Department; Zheng Ji, who was good at criminal matters, was appointed as the Chief of the Criminal Investigation Department; Zhao Mian, who was an upright man, was appointed as the Chief of the Supervision Department.

Each position corresponds to their respective areas of expertise.

thus.

The Lord's Mansion will be expanded from the previous nine departments and one department to twelve departments and one department.

Among the twelve chief officers, there are seven aboriginals and five foreigners. For the first time, the number of aboriginal chiefs exceeds that of foreigners. They have become the mainstay of the chief officers of each department under the Lord's Mansion, which greatly balances the "family alone" of Yiren in the Lord's Mansion.

Big” momentum.

This consolidated Tang Jing's authority.

In addition to the personnel adjustments in the Lord's Mansion, the candidates for the county magistrates in each county have also been selected in advance.

Chang'an County, County Magistrate Fang Yue;

Denton County, County Magistrate Shen Ting;

Monroe County, County Magistrate Chen Yu;

Joaquin County, County Magistrate Guo Yundao;

Macomb County, County Magistrate Jiang Jing.

The county magistrates of the five counties are served by the remaining five of the nine sons of Chongxian Hall.

No chance was left for strangers.

It cannot be said that no chance is given at all.

At least, the chief officials of the agencies under each county government still mainly hire foreigners due to the shortage of native talents in Chang'an. For players who are interested in an official career, Chang'an is still one of the best choices.

………

Announcement of personnel adjustments.

The meeting then entered the real topic - discussing arrangements for an additional 1.5 million people.

The last two days.

The refugees who were being sent to Chang'an one after another were so loud that the city of Chang'an was almost overcrowded.

If not properly placed.

If it's not done right, it could really cause turmoil in the city.

It must be paid enough attention to!

If Tang Jing's wishes were followed, of course he would also like to wait until the army captured the three counties before trading with Mu Xi, Luo Luo and other lords, so as to prevent the refugees from crowding in Chang'an City.

The problem is——

The window period for level 2 crystal cores to maintain value is the last week.

Too late.

Level 2 crystal cores in countries such as the Nanyang Alliance will enter a period of rapid depreciation just like those in the Zunlong Kingdom.

That's when.

Even if Tang Jing wanted to sell it, he couldn't get a decent price.

The two powers harm each other, whichever is less.

Tang Jing could only bite off the fat meat that was brought to his mouth first, and then think about other things.

Anyway, Chang'an has experienced several population explosions.

Not bad this time either.

Both the Labor Department responsible for the resettlement of refugees, the Patrol Battalion responsible for public security, and the newly established Public Security Department have all gained experience.

How to arrange it depends on old history.

Just follow the rules.

"How have the Tiger Brigade and Tiger Brigade been training on the ship these two days?" Tang Jing looked at Qin Shuang.

If we want to properly accommodate the new population, it cannot be solved within Chang'an City. At best, we can only treat the symptoms. The only way to cure the root cause is to evacuate the population to counties as soon as possible.

Calculated based on the resettlement population of 300,000 people in one county.

Denton, Joaquin and Macomb counties combined can house a population of 900,000 people.

Plus Chang'an County.

Easily, millions of people can be diverted away from Chang'an City.

certainly.

Even if one million people are diverted, the number of people stranded in Chang'an City will still exceed 1.3 million.

It far exceeds Chang'an City's current carrying capacity limit.

Tang Jing was already thinking about whether to expand the area of ​​Chang'an City and build a third city wall.

Planning of Chang'an City.

After all, historical experience cannot be completely copied.

Historically, the city of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty was dominated by handicrafts and could not absorb enough jobs.

A population of one million is already the limit.

If we look carefully, the one million population of Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty may even be just an imaginary number. It should be the population of all the villages and towns surrounding Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty.

The urban population was estimated to be around 700,000 to 800,000 at its peak.

But today's Chang'an City is different. Industry is already one of Chang'an City's pillar industries, providing massive employment opportunities and supporting a giant city with a population of more than one million.

In modern society, urban areas with a population exceeding one million are common.

There are several with more than 10 million.

In addition to its industrial advantages, the new Chang'an City is destined to accommodate a larger population because it adopts new architectural forms, such as tube towers instead of ancient courtyards.

The population densities are not even on the same scale.

future.

When Chang'an's steel industry gets on the right track, it can produce steel bars and build high-rise buildings.

The population density can be increased several times.

"The Tiger Brigade and the Tiger Brigade have been trained to the point where they can basically recover their combat effectiveness within an hour even after getting seasick." Qin Shuang replied.
