Tongliao, as the name suggests, is where the grasslands connect to Liaodong.
Although Tongliao's shape on the map is not very beautiful, and it was only an insignificant small city in later generations, it is indeed a strategically important place connecting the four directions.
This can be used as a supply point for the army to leave the Modong grassland, and it can also be used as a fulcrum to attack Liaodong.
There is no Khan in Tongliao now, and players have not been able to capture Tongliao.
Li Yan's system cannot set up birth points and resurrection points outside the area he occupies, so setting up birth points and resurrection points in Tongliao has not yet been implemented.
However, with the strategic direction in mind, and after Li Yan got rid of the confusion and anxiety in his heart, the huge machine of Longyou began to activate.
Merchants and players in Gaochang began to purchase grain from the Western Regions, and even posted signs at the Western Region Trading Station that grain must be available in exchange for goods from Longyou.
At this time, Li Yan realized how efficient the terrifying machine he had created had become.
Food from the Western Regions was swallowed up by Gaochang and Shazhou like a tide.
These grains were planned and transported to Zhangye and Wuwei.
The autumn harvest is approaching, and officials from all the yamen in Longyou have gone to the fields to start this year's autumn grain harvest.
Xizhou, Shazhou, and Guazhou all had great harvests of grain, and a large amount of grain was harvested and put into storage. Li Yan also followed the rent agreed with the people before, and officials at all levels effectively collected grain from the people.
This year is probably the best year that the people of Longyou have ever lived.
There are golden ears of wheat everywhere in the post. Yun Niang, who came home from Zhangye to visit her relatives, is helping her family thresh wheat ears.
During the days when Yun Niang worked at Jiuquan Pharmaceutical Factory, she sent a lot of money to her family.
The last time the village renovated old houses, Yun Niang's mother spent a sum of money to renovate the old straw straw house into a brick and stone house.
Although the old people in the village used bricks to build cemeteries for the dead, brick houses can withstand wind and keep warm and insulated. There are subsidies for renovating thatched houses in Yixia. Who wouldn't want to live in a more comfortable brick house.
When Yun Niang came back, she also bought a wheat threshing machine from Jiuquan City. Now several nearby families are threshing wheat ears in her yard.
The hand rocking barrel is surrounded by long iron nails. After putting the wheat ears in and shaking the barrel, the wheat on the wheat ears will be combed off by the iron nails inside the machine and fall into the hole network below.
The wheat grains fall from the perforated mesh into the bag below, while the straw and weeds are left in the drum of the machine.
With this machine, Yun's family could finish threshing wheat ears in one day instead of three days of threshing.
Yun Niang looked at the wheat piled up in the yard with a happy smile on her face.
Although she has been promoted to the supervisor of the pharmaceutical factory, her two months' salary can buy all the wheat in the yard.
But children who come from rural areas feel most at ease when they look at food.
According to Longyou's rules, Yun Niang's family consists of four people: mother, sister-in-law, Yun Niang and nephew.
The mother, sister-in-law and Yun Niang are all adults. According to the law, Yun Niang's family can get 1.5 acres of land granted by adult men.
The nephew is not yet an adult, so he has no land to grant.
One-twentieth of these acres were paid as rent to the government.
According to regulations, the males of each household need to perform corvee service to the government, but now the corvee service in Longyou is also paid. Yun's father and brother both died in the army, so the government also exempted them from the service.
The final step was to make adjustments. According to Yun's family's needs, they handed over to the government 20 feet of silk, 30 liang of cotton, or 20 feet and 5 feet of cloth, and 3 pounds of hemp.
However, Yun Niang's family, including Yun Niang, is already working in the workshop.
Yun Niang has been promoted to the director of the pharmaceutical workshop in Jiuquan, and her salary is higher than that of a petty official in the state capital.
Yunniang's mother heats hot water in the service area of Yixiali and now earns a lot of money every month.
Yun Niang's sister-in-law was originally illiterate, so she couldn't go too far with her nephew.
A few months ago, under Yun Niang's persuasion, I signed up for a crash course in arithmetic in Shazhou City.
Now she works as an accountant for several workshops in the village. Although her monthly income is not as good as Yun Niang's, it is enough for her and her nephew to live together.
The previous life of men farming and women weaving was broken. King Jianning also ordered that silk, silk and cloth would no longer be compulsorily collected from the people, but that the people would just pay according to the Dingkou.
The Ding tax should be paid directly, which was also Jiang Lun's suggestion to King Jianning.
Jiang Lun said that nowadays the common people hardly know how to make their own silk. If they are still required to hand in the fabric, then the common people will have to use the money to buy the fabric.
Then the price of fabrics on the market will inevitably increase, and unscrupulous businessmen will use this method to exploit people again.
Li Yan naturally agreed to Jiang Lun's request and let the people choose to hand over cloth or converted money.
Without exorbitant taxes and exploitation by other landlords, Yun Niang's family finally lived a good life.
However, even though the whole family had jobs, Yun Niang's mother still insisted on cultivating her own fields.
People who have experienced famine will only feel at ease when they see food in the fields.
When the wheat ears were all dried, Yunniang's mother said:
"A new mill has been built in the village. I will transport the wheat there and grind it into flour tomorrow. You go to the market to buy some meat and vegetables. We will eat dumplings tomorrow!"
I don’t know when it started, but pasta like dumplings became popular in Longyou.
Whenever there is a festival or a family reunion, the whole family will sit together to make dumplings and eat dumplings.
Yun Niang works in Jiuquan, so she naturally wants to have a good meal when she comes back.
The next day, Yun Niang's mother borrowed a bullock cart from next door and took the family's wheat to the newly built mill in the village.
The mill was built next to the river and was driven by the power of the water flow. It was also a gift left to the village by the previous mayor.

Recently, the mill has been working intensively 24 hours a day, grinding the golden ears of wheat into white flour.
But the water flow is constant, so it is much more efficient than using grinding discs in the past.
Yunniang's mother waited until the afternoon and finally sent her grain to the mill.
Yun Niang took her nephew to the lively market in Yixia.
A huge market was built in Yixiali next to the official rest area.
Nowadays, this market is not only a market where passing merchants stop, but also a place where nearby villages go to market.
Compared with Yun Niang when she left Yixiali, the market has expanded a lot.
Because the business roads in Longyou are becoming more and more prosperous, the business in the market is better than before.
Yun Niang took her little nephew's hand and first came to the shop selling pork.
These days are the days of autumn harvest, and many people who work in Fucheng County like Yun Niang have taken leave to go home to harvest food.
So more and more people came to the market to buy pork, but today the boss was well prepared and killed an extra pig.
When Yun Niang arrived, she discovered that the owner of the butcher shop was also an acquaintance of Yixia.
"Yun Niang, you are back from Jiuquan City!"
The boss enthusiastically chose the best piece of meat for Yun Niang, and then said:
"How are you doing, Lao Li? How is your health?"
The old village chief was naturally Zeng Mu. No matter how the village chief was changed, the people in Yixiali would always remember Zeng Mu who led them on the road to prosperity.
Without Zeng Mu, even the Guandao rest area and this market would not exist.
The livelihoods of more than 130 people in Yiheli depend on the Guandao Rest Area.
Don’t forget the man who dug the well when eating from the well. For Zeng Mu, a highly promoted old village chief, the villagers are naturally concerned about his health.
Yun Niang said quickly: "Zeng Zhizhou is in good health."
"That's good, that's good! I'll give you this piece of meat."
The butcher shop owner chopped the meat into stuffing, wrapped it in paper and handed it to Yun Niang.
The butcher shop owner kindly said: "Mother Yun, why don't you buy some vinegar to eat dumplings? There is a businessman from Gaochang over there. He sells vinegar, which is best for dipping dumplings!"
vinegar?
Only then did Yun Niang remember that when she was having a dinner at the pharmaceutical workshop in Jiuquan and eating dumplings, Master Wang had given her a taste of this kind of thing.
Unexpectedly, there was vinegar in the post office. Yun Niang took her nephew to the vinegar stall.
The stall owner is a Hu businessman from Gaochang. Jars of balsamic vinegar are sealed in clay pots, and the price is about the same as rice wine.
The stall owner said that this was balsamic vinegar produced by a large vinegar factory in Gaochang, and that it had been brewed for several months to obtain such pure rice vinegar.
Yun Niang smelled it and found that it tasted the same as the vinegar she had eaten in Jiuquan, so she happily bought a jar of vinegar.
Let the little nephew carry the pork and Yun Niang hold the vinegar jar. There are always many stalls in the lively market that attract the attention of girls and children.
On the way back, Yun Niang bought a beautiful hairpin for her sister-in-law and a box of desserts stuffed with date kernels for her nephew.
After returning home, Yun Niang helped her mother move the flour into the warehouse. Now her sister-in-law, who was helping the village workshop with accounts, also returned home from work.
Yun Niang's mother has already made the noodles, and Yun Niang has fried the fillings. The whole family sat at the table and started making dumplings.
In the stable Longyouli, there are many families like Yun Niang.
This bumper harvest also fulfilled King Jianning's promise and allowed the people to truly live a good life.
This golden wave of wheat trembled gently, and the granaries all over Longyou were filled with grain.
Merchants traveling through Longyou transported grain from warehouses to Zhangye and Wuwei.
The weapons and armors forged in the iron workshops near Dashui Gorge in Guazhou were also transported to Zhangye and Wuwei along with the caravans.
With the implementation of the Great Detour Strategy, a large number of players began to gather in Zhangye and Wuwei, and there were many generals and players wearing weapons in Hexi.
On the last day of August, King Jianning came to the artillery field outside Shazhou City.
