There are endless troubles. Chen Xi and Li You once discussed this problem, but Li You's solution was to have no trouble at all!
When the aristocratic families returned to the north, Li You killed a group of aristocratic families, and they were the kind that didn't even have the scum left. The reason why there are still people in those aristocratic families who are from famous families is because Li You directly killed these heinous groups.
, after killing the unforgivable guy, let the aristocratic family members of Liu Bei's family become this passerby despite their family reputation and lineage.
You say this is a fake? No, no, no, it's not at all. Look at the servants, they all say yes, and people familiar with it are also there. How could it be a fake? Aren't they all named Zhao?
If you can't solve the problem of annihilating the clan, then go with the three tribes. If you can't solve the problem of the three tribes, then go with the nine tribes. If you can't be implicated, simply kill the culprit and then replace the civet cat with the prince. There is no problem in this world that cannot be solved. As long as the path is correct, the solution will always be better than
There are many problems.
Therefore, Li You can firmly say that there will be no future troubles for the problems he handles. If there are any troubles, it must be because he did not follow his routine.
Chen Xi didn't believe in this evil at first, but seeing Li You's repeated frauds, Chen Xi could only hold his nose and admit it. Li You's method can indeed solve many problems.
However, Li You would occasionally admit that his method was not suitable for use in the Central Plains. After all, they were all from the Yanhuang lineage, and the Xia Miao descendants were constantly exterminating people. It was really not good to cut off their incense, so Chen Xi took action at that time.
Qing, Xiaozhi Yili, said that this is indeed the case, and we try not to do this. However, Li You said that sometimes, if we don't be ruthless, we really can't solve the problem.
However, Li You assured Chen Xi that even if he was ruthless, he would not cut off his legacy and make his heirs extinct. Chen Xi said hehe, while he wanted to completely solve the problem without leaving any future troubles, he also wanted to continue his legacy and prevent his heirs from being extinct.
How could such a thing be done.
In the end, Li You really did it. He wiped out the whole family, burned the other side with fierce fire oil and spread the ashes. After that, he found an heir for this surname and inherited the family name. Remember to make sacrifices during the holidays.
Just the ancestors will do.
A big family cannot do this kind of thing, but if a small family can steal the reputation of a family, they really don't mind changing their lintel. After all, a small family wants less. If they show their loyalty to Li You, they can change it.
If you have the opportunity to leap over the dragon gate, can you not do it?
So Li You's performance really stunned Chen Xi. While solving the problem, he really didn't leave any future troubles. More importantly, he added a lot of his own people.
Lu Su was also vaguely aware of this method. This method of exchanging a civet cat for a prince was actually very easy given the current strength of the central government of the Han Dynasty. However, Lu Su was too shameless to afford such a thing, so
Only milder methods can be used.
"There is no need to worry in the south." Liu Bei has a gentle temperament and has no idea of completing the achievements of the Qianqiu Dynasty in one generation. Surpassing the ancestors is indeed the goal, but as long as he continues to advance, there is no need to overdraw the national power, even if Chen Xi can do it
very good.
"After all, the south is a grain-producing area that is being built, clans." Chen Xi sighed and said, some things are really difficult to eliminate after taking too long, just like the Wuxi Barbarian side is still a tribal system, and the villages should be gathered.
Bingzhai separated these people and then switched to the Han family's method of exchange. However, the local people were already satisfied with their current life and had no interest in moving.
No matter how good life is in the future, the happiness that is visible in front of them is enough to attract many people, not to mention that many times in history, the so-called beauty of the future is just a big pie.
This is where Chen Xi is most helpless. Yuan Feng's national reputation has been very good this time, but the people in remote mountainous areas have doubts about this, which is very helpless. Moreover, for his own people, especially the people in the head of Guizhou, Chen Xi is
If you can't make a deadly move, you have to take the initiative to resist the spell.
"The problem of grain-producing land is not big. Han Mou carefully investigated the climate and soil in the south. The problem of becoming a grain-producing land is not big. In fact, the problem before was just the development intensity of the south, miasma poisonous insects, mountains, forests and waters. These are all obstacles.
The factor of going south." Lu Su nodded and said.
"We have professionals to deal with poisonous insects now, and there are medicines for miasma now, and the same goes for water and soil problems. In fact, the biggest problem now is population." Chen Xi sighed and said, now actually all problems are stuck in population.
At the peak of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty had nearly 60 million people. However, the problems of the years since then have been continuous famines, the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Dong Zhuo's political chaos, and Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing have been affected several times before they came out of Qinghao Tang.
Plague in counties.
In fact, after the princes challenged Dong, the population of the Han Dynasty had actually dropped to more than 40 million. Coupled with subsequent governance issues in various places, as well as natural disasters and wars, the population was actually in a state of continuous decline.
In other words, the population of places such as Taishan and Qingzhou has really increased under Chen Xi's administration. Among the remaining states, only Yuzhou, which is the state under Yuan Shu, has not suffered serious population losses. The other states, Youzhou, and Jizhou,
Bingzhou, Yongliang, and Yanzhou basically suffered from military disasters.
On the contrary, because of a plague that had the greatest impact on Yuzhou in official history, Chen Xi killed it in Xuzhou first, so Yuzhou's losses were actually not great.
Of course, the most important point here is that there are many real people in Yuzhou, and it produces everything except horses. However, Yuan Shu's son died much earlier than the official history, and Yuan Shu didn't even have the temperament to become emperor.
He looks for Sun Ce around the clock, hoping that Sun Ce will become his son.
Therefore, Yuzhou has truly escaped the entire period of more than ten years of turmoil. This is also an important reason why the people in Runan have a good impression of Yuan Shu, because Yuan Shu has no time to lose his family in this life, so there is no point in losing his family.
After the Han Dynasty was unified and Chen Xi came to power, the entire Central Plains quickly entered a period of recovery, but it took at least eighteen years for an adult labor force. Chen Xi was not a god. Even if the Han Dynasty had added millions of people in recent years, this
Millions of people are not laborers.
In addition, major aristocratic families continue to recruit people, even if they have stopped now, they have left a lot of mess in the Central Plains. Thanks to Chen Xi who is in charge, this can still be stable, otherwise where would it be like now?
While fighting abroad, he was restoring national strength at home.
"Actually the population is recovering." Lu Su sighed and said. He saw a lot of babies along the way, especially now that Chen Xi controls prices, and the things he just needs are very cheap. Therefore, when Lu Su went north, he saw a lot of babies.
The situation of a family with four or five children missing.
"Can you work?" Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said, didn't he know that the population was recovering? No matter what, now, even if you don't have any skills and have the strength to move bricks, you can still survive. After all, these places are really providing food.
Yes, but this must at least be laborious.
Lu Su looked at Chen Xi speechlessly, and Liu Bei also sighed. In fact, Chen Xi and him had discussed these things before, but population is really a very important issue.
Chen Xi even had a population-income discussion with Liu Bei on this issue. Finally, Liu Bei clearly understood how big the dividends that the population size can bring if agriculture can support it. Of course, if it cannot support it,
That would be really troublesome.
But Chen Xi just laughed at this problem. If you can't raise it, the whole of Asia is about to be conquered. With the Han Dynasty's farming technology and a territory of this level, it's not a big deal if you don't brag about it. One billion people is actually not a big problem, but to reach
One billion people, based on the current population growth rate and average age-related death rate, is estimated to take one to two hundred years, and with that much time, industrialization is over.
After all, standard parts, precision, and specialized subjects are all available. Those who have leisure and money, and who are likely to become larger in the future, will gradually enter these disciplines, and the recklessness will come out.
Not going to industrialize? Are you kidding!
A large group of people with the same interests and free time can gather together. Even an interest group can produce something, let alone one that is estimated to be in the hundreds of millions.
Can't calculus be produced without Leibniz? Can't classical mechanics be produced without Newton? I'm afraid I'm going to laugh to death. It does take genius to have a flash of inspiration. But industrialization, the accumulation of technology and innovation, and the accumulation of people and money, will solve the problem sooner or later.
.
Therefore, Chen Xi did not panic at all. He felt a little pity at most. Unfortunately, the limit of productivity in this era can only reach the current level. Even if he has the spare capacity, it will be difficult to surpass this limit.
"Let's talk about it later, we're here." Liu Bei felt the frame of the car pause, took a look at the car, and said to the two of them.
"I'm back." Lu Su stood at the door of his house and knocked on the door. The concierge opened the door. Lu Su asked softly and made sure that his grandmother had rested. He could only inform the housekeeper to wait until his grandmother woke up, and then
He led a group of people straight to the main hall.
"After Zijing left, except for the New Year holidays when I came to visit Sisi Jing's grandmother, there were less visits at other times." Guo Jia looked at Lu Su's back and said.
"There's nothing we can do. Zijing isn't here, so we can only come over during the New Year to have a look." Chen Xi said casually, "But things got a lot better after that."
In fact, one of the reasons why Liu Bei transferred Lu Su back from the south was that Lu Su's grandmother was not in good health recently. After all, the average person in this era was only over 30 years old. Lu Su's grandmother was now over 70 years old. In this era,
Already a senior citizen.
"Come on, let's make a toast first." Liu Bei said with a smile as he picked up a glass of wine.
Eight stoves are burning, and the temperature in the hall instantly rises to summer. Unfortunately, coal is not worth much now. You can buy a lot of it for a few pennies. If you think it is expensive, you can even take a basket to the household coal mine in the north of Chang'an to pick it up.
.
The mine was specially opened by Chen Xi for the people of Chang'an. It was also an open-air mine. Each person would get a basket of notes a day. If it was too expensive, he would carry it himself. As a result, even though Chen Xi restricted it, someone actually turned it into a business.
Some people don't carry coal themselves every day, but go to factories and mines to get notes, and then sell them to other people who are not qualified to receive the notes at a price lower than half of the market price of coal.
So there were people who didn't live in Chang'an, but came here with a note to pick up a basket of coal and carry it home. Faced with this situation, Chen Xi couldn't complain. Those who came to catch the morning market and gather at the gathering were all from a few years ago.
He came from ten miles away, sold the things, collected some unwanted notes from the people of Chang'an, and then asked his nephew to carry the coal in a basket...
It was completely idle, and I could just earn some traveling expenses and food expenses by carrying it back.
Chen Xi has nothing to say to this kind of thing. He can only change the note to one that can be taken on the same day. Anyway, you have the ability to come to the morning market every day.
It turns out that there really is such a person. His home is more than ten miles away. He comes to work every morning. After finishing the day's work, he carries a basket of coal back. Faced with this terrible physical condition, Chen Xi arranged several veterans for the mine.
, found one, sent one to the barracks.
As for other things, there is really nothing we can do. The wisdom of the people will always leave people speechless.
"Welcome back, and congratulations on taking over the post of Shangshu Ling." Chen Xi said with a smile, "Let's work hard together. Without Zijing, the work will be difficult."
Lu Su rolled his eyes, are you kidding me? You just said you just wanted to share the work with me, and I won't scold you for pretending.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Zhuge Liang had no choice but to leave.
Everyone else also nodded and said that they would go to give Zhuge Liang courage tomorrow, but Zhuge Liang smiled and said nothing. He and Lu Su had a close relationship that they had worked overtime. How could they not come to greet Lu Su when he returned to Chang'an to take up his post?
Sober.
"Ah, Kong Ming finally got married. Wen Ru's daughter is really amazing." After watching Zhuge Liang leave in the snow, Lu Su finally said what was in his heart.
"How can a family like that not be powerful?" Jia Xu replied casually, "The character of Wen Ru has a great influence on his daughter."
"Kong Ming can't bear it either. Huang is the daughter of a great Confucian and is very good at etiquette, but not everyone has Cai's decisiveness." Liu Ye said with a smile.
In recent years, Liu Ye has also met a lot of daughters of great Confucian scholars. Huang Yueying is considered good, but some of them are really stupid women who have suppressed their nature.
In fact, the most powerful Confucian girls Liu Ye has seen in so many years are Cai Zhaoji and Cai Zhenji. The former's talent and determination, and the latter's wisdom and decisiveness all make Liu Ye admire them. In the true sense, being born as a man, he can
A strong person who adds a chair to the political chamber.
"Huang's talent is not weak, and is even better than that of Wen Ru's daughter, but there is a gap in temperament between the two, and there is a gap in their education methods." Chen Xi shook his head and said, if Huang Yueying is Li You's daughter, if Li Yuan is Huang Chengyan's
Daughter, I'm afraid Li Yuan will lose miserably.
Huang Yueying's qualifications are very good, but Huang Chengyan teaches Confucianism and Taoism. Li Yuan's qualifications are also good, but there is still a big gap compared with Huang Yueying's self-taught spiritual talent monster.
The reason for the draw was more because Li You behaved like a king and had the consciousness to die as a martyr if his path failed. Huang Yueying probably didn't want to compete with the dead, so she lost.
