The New Year in Ganliang is completely different from the New Year in the Song Dynasty. The people here will not enjoy a rare vacation in the year, but are even busier. Liang
No way, there are too many goods, from the Song Dynasty, from Dangxiang, from the Liao Dynasty, and more from Western countries. At the same time, Ganliang itself is also producing a large amount of goods, sweaters, cotton clothes, linen clothes, cotton clothes.
Linen blends, cotton and wool blends, and the types of imitations alone have been expanded to an unprecedented level.
On the other hand, a large number of goods orders are pouring into Ganliang as if they were agreed upon. The sudden increase in factory orders also means that productivity is exhausted, and an unknown amount of labor is needed to fill it. Therefore, the population of Ganliang has been increasing in recent years.
Even if you spend money to buy slaves, you still have to fill the vacancies in the labor force...
A virtuous cycle has been formed, and the wealth gained by the Song Dynasty from Gan Liang has been fed back. Here, currency has no actual role, because its purchasing power makes it valuable, and the root is still in the material itself!
Money is just a medium of exchange. The people of Ganliang know this better than anyone else. The reason is very simple. Their goods can be exchanged for a large amount of money, and then they use the money to buy a large amount of items. They use the surplus money to pay taxes and live, and finally the materials are restored.
Being left in Ganliang allowed this place to continue to prosper.
The city of Tokyo and even the entire Song Dynasty received money, and then used this money to continue to purchase a large amount of goods from Ganliang to enrich themselves, forming a cycle, but this cycle was benign for Ganliang, and for the Song Dynasty
It's vicious...
Ye An's family lived in the government office. At first, Pei Chengwen planned to build a special mansion. Unfortunately, Ye An and Qin Mumu sternly rejected it. They were unwilling to move the strict confinement to Ganliang, let alone
I hope something similar to Imperial Power will appear here.
Finally, she moved into the City Lord's Mansion where Fang Linyue had always lived. This was originally Ye An's mansion when he was stationed in Ganliang. Later, Fang Linyue came to live here first, and she also gave birth to her son Ye Fang here.
Simply taking the last names of the two people and naming them after them is quite good. Liang
Ye Fang didn't bring it because he was younger, which made Ye An very dissatisfied. He was his own child anyway, so how could he not bring it.
After returning to the city lord's palace, Ye An held the child and looked at it for a long time, and finally sighed to Qin Mumu: "This child is so good-looking, if you didn't tell me, I would have thought he was a woman!"
At this time, Qin Mumu's eyes were full of jealousy. Compared with the upright-looking Ye Lin, the child in front of her was much more beautiful. He retained almost all the advantages of Ye An and Fang Linyue. He was so grown-up!
Ye Ling was very happy about the sudden addition of a little brother. Normally, it was no longer novel for her to bully Ye Lin. Ye Lin may have understood the fate of being bullied by his sister, and then chose not to resist.
As time went by, Ye Ling completely lost her sense of accomplishment, and naturally gave up bullying her younger brothers. Now that she had Ye Fang, she was ready to show her feminine power to her brothers again, but she immediately differentiated after seeing Ye Fang's porcelain doll-like face.
Not only did he not bully him, but he also took care of him and shared precious gems with him...
Rosanna left Ganliang. As a woman from the Western Regions, she never thought of staying in the city lord's mansion. On the contrary, for her, the vast Xinjiang mansion was the place she should go. She wanted to seek more for her former people.
Welfare.
Ye An understands her thoughts, and so does Qin Mumu, but others don't!
The people of Xinjiang Prefecture are rapidly becoming naturalized. After establishing Xinjiang Prefecture, Ye An did not station troops to prevent rebellion. Instead, he sent a large number of Han scholars to promote Confucianism to the foreign people in Xinjiang Prefecture. Liang
Confucianism is not a religion in the fundamental sense, but it has the same ability to change people's hearts as religion. Confucianism can last for thousands of years and can become the basic educational subject for rulers of all dynasties. Its thoughts of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism are the supreme magic weapon.
Of course, the deeper level is his ability to transform people's thoughts.
How to turn the hard-working people who "will be contented with the kings and princes" into active members who "have love for the emperor in this world and be loyal to the emperor in the next world"? Confucianism plays an indispensable role.
The promotion of Confucianism in Xinjiang can be said to be the most important measure, and the promotion of education in Ganliang and even Huangzhou is also very important.
The majority of the people in Ganliang and Huangzhou are Han people, and the people from those ethnic minorities will blend in unconsciously. Under the influence of the general environment, even they themselves will forget their identity as ethnic minorities over time.
The purpose of developing education in Ganliang is to enlighten the people's wisdom. This is what the rulers and ruling classes of all dynasties have been most afraid of and worried about. Once the name is opened, people will ask a few "whys", learn to think independently, and learn to look at problems dialectically.
, this was comparable to a scourge in the eyes of scholar-bureaucrats and emperors.
Ye An didn't want imperial power to appear in the land of Ganliang. He didn't care about the enlightenment of people's wisdom, and even hoped that people's wisdom would be enlightened, so there was a scientific education system here.
The children's teaching materials were compiled by Liu Yong, Pei Chengwen and Du Fuzi. They eliminated all the decadent ideas in Confucianism, leaving only the advanced ones with subjective initiative content, and added the sentence "man can conquer nature". Liang
Gan Liang, from the officials to the common people, from the yellow-haired children to the grey-haired old men, all understand the truth, "If you rely on the mountains to fall, you must rely on everyone to fall. Only by relying on yourself can you live a good life!"
The laws of Ganliang are more complete than those of the "Song Xingtong". They are a combination of human laws, secular laws, and laws, and are extremely tolerant and institutional.
The simplest one is, "Those who kill must pay for their lives, but they may avoid death if appropriate. Those who abduct women or children shall be beaten to death, but there will be no immunity for injuries. Those who steal will be beaten to death in self-defense, but shall not be exempted from injury. Those who bully others will be punished by the owner of the suffering."
Beaten to death, beaten to death, exempt from injury..." etc. These laws are full of humane feelings.
On New Year's Eve, Fan Ziyuan came with his whole family. Even he didn't expect that he would be able to bring all his family members to Ganliang before the New Year's Eve.
Qin Mumu personally took the women and children to live at home, while he poured out his sorrows to Ye An...
"Marquis Ye, who are the teaching doctors in Liangzhou Prefecture? None of them have ever been an official, but they know Huangzhou better than me. The officials and petty officials under me were scolded from beginning to end by him.
After a while, I said that I couldn’t do anything well, and I didn’t even know how to draw a chart. I was really convinced. It’s okay for the third division to use charts. Why do we have to use charts here? There are also three future arrivals in Huangzhou.
Five-year plan, who can think of something so far ahead?”
Ye An asked helplessly: "You can't even understand the charts now? Haven't you realized that what you are dealing with every day when you are on duty are the current affairs of Huangzhou, and you have not thought about how to promote development?" Liang
Fan Ziyuan shook his head: "Of course I can understand the simple and clear diagrams, but the people under my command are still learning, and many things are not done properly. As for the future of Huangzhou, that is exactly what I want to say to you today.
"
Before Ye An could speak, he said: "Huangzhou will definitely become the vanguard of Ganliang in the future. It needs its own soldiers. It may be okay to rely solely on young and strong warriors composed of Orions to deal with bandits, but it will be difficult to resist... Once...
…Once the country uses troops, Huangzhou may be destroyed in an instant!”
Seeing his worried look, Ye An knew that this guy's thoughts were beginning to change, and said with a smile: "So you want to implement Ganliang's military system in Huangzhou, and use Ganliang's military training methods to build up soldiers to prepare for emergencies?"
"This is natural!" He who was a little worried at first saw that Ye An pointed it out without hesitation: "Since you want to turn Huangzhou into a part of Ganliang, you must give me the ability to protect myself and let Huangzhou
Have the power to protect yourself! This is crucial to your plot to Qingtang..."
"That's right! The reform of the military system in Huangzhou is the focus of future work. I am going to use troops in Qingtang. The rear must be stable, and the imperial court is likely to use the Qingtang incident to attack Ganliang. If this happens, you Huangzhou will probably
It will be exposed in advance and cannot be hidden.”
"Five years, I need five years!"
"Three years, you only have three years!" Ye An shook his head slightly and rejected Fan Ziyuan's proposal, and gave higher requirements. Liang
How could Fan Ziyuan not know Ye An's plan? The use of troops against Qingtang has actually been in Ye An's plan for a long time. It was actually because he had to escape from Tokyo that he did not initiate it. Now that he has returned to the northwest, he is about to start planning for the unresolved matter.
.
"It seems that there is not much time left for me and Huangzhou, just three years! But during this time, you have to provide me with the greatest help!"
"If you want people, you need things, you need money... Huangzhou is not short of money, it just depends on how you use it." After saying this, the two looked at each other and smiled, and the first step of their expansion in the northwest was about to begin.
