Chapter 222: There is a city called Ye

Can some extremely high-end things be understood by Fu Cha? First build the canal, and then do the sea landing. If you don't have enough imagination, you won't even think about it, let alone do it.

"A monarch who has done great things continuously during his tenure seems to have a hard time ending up well in the past and in the long future?" Zhiyao was not making any predictions.

Many kings of the Xia Dynasty liked to carry out large-scale projects, as long as they were related to agriculture. For example, water conservancy projects received almost no backlash, while canals and palaces were bound to receive huge backlash.

It's a little hard to say about other ethnic groups. What Zhuxia emphasizes is that food is the first priority for the people, and water conservancy projects help agriculture. Anyone who wants to cause trouble must not use this as a point of public opinion attack.

Canal? In fact, several dynasties started the project, but generally it was the monarch who built the canal who bore the infamy, and those who followed him took advantage and made all kinds of nonsense, as if building the canal was the original sin, and rationally

The king was also made very taboo.

As for repairing the palace? People don’t care if the palace is not tall and majestic, so it is a magnificent demonstration. No matter how light the accusation is, it is just a reputation that only cares about one’s own enjoyment. There are many more ugly ones.

Zhiyao thought to himself: "Does Fu Chai need to build a majestic palace?"

Fuchai didn't want to build a palace. He had already planned to build several cities along the canal, each of which was quite large.

The original purpose of those cities was definitely not for civilian use. To put it bluntly, they were used to serve as a stronghold for the Wu army to move north. In the current era, they can be called "Wu" cities.

Zhiyao wonders if Fucha doesn't read big data?

Take the Chi family as an example. The total population has expanded repeatedly to about one million or more. It is really difficult to have accurate data anyway.

In millions, right? Zhiyao made a five-year plan. The labor force usually used was about 80,000 to 90,000, and at most, it used 200,000 labor force. Although it had a very detailed plan, the management system was also ahead of other countries and families.

, it still gave Zhishi a lot of trouble.

And this is thanks to the era of family, country and world. People have not awakened too high a sense of freedom. Their families are responsible for their food and drink expenses. There is no such thing as excessive use of people's power.

Fucha also has the power to recruit labor to serve him, but the core is much more complicated than Zhishi starting a large project by himself.

The monarch can issue orders to his subordinates, and the nobles are recruited, and the nobles then use manpower and material resources to complete the monarch's tasks. There are not two floors in between, and the nobles are not buying their own properties. Can the feeling be the same?

?

This kind of thing can happen in Chu, Yue and Wu. Any monarch in other countries will want to do it. In countries including Jin, the nobles will basically cause trouble in various ways, making it impossible for the plan to be implemented.

That was the State of Chu, the State of Wu and the State of Yue, which had relatively strong monarchical power, while the other countries were relatively weak. To put it bluntly, the system may be the same, but the gameplay is different.

Another point is that the monarchs of Chu, Wu and Yue can kill their ministers at will, as well as ministers who cross the hierarchy to command their ministers. The monarchs of other countries may be able to do so in their dreams, but if they really want to do it, they will be killed instead of commanding them.

The vassal of my vassal, the vassal of the other side will not be a bird at all.

By the winter of this year, Zhishi's first five-year plan will expire. Whether the construction has been completed as planned requires Zhiyao to personally inspect it.

If the first five-year plan is completed, Zhiyao has no plans to start the next five-year plan immediately.

Time is of course extremely urgent for Zhiyao, but she must not lack any sense. Even if she doesn't have to worry about the use of people's power, how can she not worry about it at all!

"The supplies can hold up, it can hold up completely, but..." Zhiyao reached out and pinched her temples on both sides.

The first five-year plan was promoted and implemented by Zhiyao with a firm attitude regardless of any doubts.

In fact, prestige is being eroded all the time and needs to be replenished again and again, which is equivalent to achieving new achievements.

Zhishi's first five-year plan has been completed. Zhiyao's existing prestige can promote the next five-year plan, but the consumption of prestige will be huge.

Therefore, let the completed first five-year plan show its results first, and let Zhishi internally see the visible benefits brought by the project, and they will inevitably believe in the subsequent benefits that will be generated in the plan.

Let the labor force have some time to breathe, and those who have the right to speak can see the benefits. If Zhiyao does not take the initiative to start a second major project, it is time for them to request the immediate launch of the second five-year plan.

Half a month after the ice and snow melted, the ground in various areas was burned by the sun and lost excess moisture. When road conditions improved, it was time for people who wanted to move out.

Some people who originally came to "Xintian" have left, but many people still stay, including some people from Qi, Wu, Yue, and Song.

Zhiyao suddenly thought of something. It was rude for the Qin State not to send anyone to attend the funerals of Zhishuo and Wei Chi. The last time the Qin State did not send anyone to attend the funeral of Zhao Yang, the Qin State was once again different from other countries in the Central Plains.

Lost contact?

The Zhao family of Jin State and the Qin State clan are from the same clan, and have maintained contact for a long time, especially during the Zhao Wu era, the contact was most frequent.

After the era of Zhao Wu came to an end, Qin began to disappear.

However, the Qin State had done this several times. After Dongchu was beaten all over his head, he retreated, pretending that he had never threatened the Jin State, and lived his own life in bed.

Another person who did not participate in various activities of the Central Plains countries was Beiyan. They had lost contact with the Central Plains for more than 150 years, so that the princes in the Central Plains did not know whether Beiyan was still alive or not.

No, there is no need to deliberately call Bei Yan now. The reason is that when Jin State liquidated Wei State, Nan Yan was extinguished as ordinary as breathing, without even a single ripple.

After they entered "Huangfu", everything going east was within the Zhi family's sphere of influence.

Speaking of the sphere of influence, the main reason is that there are still some cities that are not directly under the Zhi family and have a considerable number of vassal nobles.

This is not only the case for the Zhi family, the Qing family's sphere of influence is basically the same, and the most uncomfortable ones among them are probably the Wei family and the Han family.

The Wei family has the Fan family, which is the remnant of the original Fan family that was changed to the Fan family, and the branch that Fan Gaoyi is the master of.

The Fan family has four cities and nearly thirty "states" in the southern part of the Jin Kingdom. With its military strength, it can assemble at least one "division" of troops. It is very weak in the general environment, but it is very powerful compared to other non-Qing families.

Already.

The Han family has the Jie family and the Zhang family. These two families are established forces among the middle-level nobles, and their strength has risen and fallen. At this stage, it is not a problem for the Jie family to recruit three "brigades", and the Zhang family can recruit them no matter what.

More than four "brigades".

Speaking of the Zhang family, they originally wanted to join the Zhi family. After a new division of spheres of influence, the Zhang family fell into the Han family's sphere of influence. They contacted the Zhi family privately to reach some intentions, but the ownership was assigned to Han.

Shi.

The Zhang family had no choice. The Zhi family had to surrender if their fiefdom was not within the scope of the Zhi family. The Zhi family would not agree, and the Han family would not look good on the Zhang family.

Zhishen and Zhiyao came to "Handan".

I don’t know whether I should say God is kind or not, but it started to rain as soon as they settled down.

"What is the name of the new city?" Zhishen had a headache for more than a day or two.

Zhiyao really thought about it seriously and chose two names, "Ye" and "Zhi".

The historical Yecheng was of course not the location of the new city selected by Zhiyao. The new city where the Zhi family was located was southeast of "Handan", and the historical Yecheng was to the southwest of "Handan".

It's just that whoever is born early has the priority to name it, and those who come later can only modify it.

You need to be careful when choosing "Zhi" as a place name. Once a new city is named after "Zhi", it will have a strong political meaning.

Zhiyao's generation can still move the core area as needed, but when the next generation wants to move it, a lot of people will stand up and talk about what the ancestral system is.

Therefore, naming a certain city or a certain piece of land "Zhi" is not something Zhiyao can do randomly. It does not mean that there is already a factor of "Zhi" city. Duplicate names are very common nowadays, mainly due to political factors.

Zhiyao, for example, could not easily abandon the "wisdom" land in the western part of Jin.

Zhiyao replied: "How about taking the name 'Ye'?"

Nowadays, we need to pay attention to the naming. For example, "Handan" is a city located on the edge of a mountain.

They all have ears, right? This is related to the terrain, for example, there are passes on the terrain, or there are large winding river systems crossing the edges.

Zhishen tasted it for a while and approved Zhiyao's suggestion.

There are some things that Zhishen is not so clear about. The newly built "Ye" is not a Wucheng, and there will be no regular residents in it. Instead, there are several districts for large and small workshops, named after "fangs".

They arrived at "Ye" City on the third day after the rain stopped. The city wall they saw was about nine meters high and nearly five meters wide. It was made of rammed earth.

What surprised those who followed the most was that there were straight avenues in the city and the buildings were arranged in an orderly manner. These alone were fundamentally different from other cities. Even if the avenue was a dirt road, it was a kind of "cross" that could lead straight through.

The roads from east to west and the north and south; the orderliness of the buildings can make patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder feel extremely comfortable. Rows and rows of seats have been arranged for their purpose.

For people who have never seen this kind of city, the shock they feel after seeing it is all reflected in their facial expressions.

Seeing everyone's shocked expressions, not to mention Zhiyao's inner sense of accomplishment.

"In such a big city, it will be comfortable to live there," Zhi Xuwu said.

Zhiyao was speechless.

This will be a city on the industrial side. From now on, there will be a lot of chimneys emitting smoke every day. Whether the remaining pollution can be discharged from the sewers will test advance planning.

Anyway, Zhiyao would never stay in this city permanently. She would rather go to the dilapidated-looking "Handan" for daily living, and go to "Ye" to deal with any problems.

Of course, waiting for the industrial power of "Ye" city, what will the smell of the air be like? It is hazy all day long. Even if it is harmful, it will become a great scene. I don't know how many families will imitate it, and then envy all kinds of wall separation.

.

You need to know one thing: the countries that became prosperous first, how many chimneys they had smoking, represented the country's industrial strength. At that time, in various countries with beautiful scenery, their thinking was: What is the use of these green mountains and green waters!
