Chapter 92 The Southern Huns committed crimes ([-])
Everything in Luoyang was over, and Liu Hanqi returned to Bingzhou.
Before we knew it, it was June.
Today's Bingzhou has undergone tremendous changes in one and a half years under Liu Han's governance.
All matters are on track.
Governor's House.
Today, Liu Han's advisers have all arrived to report to Liu Han on the government affairs for the first half of the year and discuss the direction for the second half of the year.
The first was Jushou, who reported to Liu Han the changes in the past six months.
First of all, there is the population. At the beginning of the year, Bingzhou had about 90 people, and another 20 came in half a year. Due to the cooperation of the Jinyang Wang family and the Yangqu Guo family, all the land was handed over, and the land in Bingzhou was abandoned due to the war. Therefore, this time Most of the relocated refugees were resettled in Taiyuan County, and the remaining few were resettled in Xihe County and Shang County. Now the counties are gradually resuming production.
In the past six months, prisoners of war have been arranged to build roads in various places. Only in Taiyuan County and Yanmen County, there are more prisoners of war, and the progress is faster, while in other places, there are fewer prisoners, and the progress is slower.
Although there were still prisoners of war who wanted to resist and escape at first, Liu Han's method of using barbarians to control barbarians successfully transferred the hatred of these Xianbei people internally.
I have to say that the Xianbei people are really good at dealing with their own people. In addition to 3000 people being disabled due to escape and various accidents, these people are sometimes better than animals.
Morning six to nine, ten days off, forgive yourself for the sins you have committed before, being lazy is a sin, this is a blessing, you must know how to cherish it!
"Lord, 30 prisoners of war, plus 15 civilians among the [-] refugees who were provided with work relief, and [-] laborers recruited from local areas, a total of [-] people, during this six months, the roads in the eleven counties of Yanmen County will be completely completed. It opened up and at the same time strengthened Pianguan Pass, Yanmen Pass and the cities and towns of counties and counties in the North."
Liu Han was very satisfied with Jushou's report, "Very good!"
"How many craftsmen are there currently?"
"An additional 590 craftsmen were recruited in the first half of this year. Together with the original craftsmen and those from other places in Bingzhou, the current total number of craftsmen is 170."
"Zhicai, thank you for your hard work."
"This is a matter of duty, so you shouldn't have to work hard."
If all were used for an army of 1, then one craftsman would take care of two soldiers, but this is impossible. The local area needs craftsmen, and it is estimated that only [-] people can be gathered.
"Gather [-] craftsmen to fully produce armaments, including iron smelting, sword casting, armor and other materials."
"Here."
"The number of craftsmen is still not enough. The current population of the state has exceeded 100 million, and more craftsmen are needed. Mi Zhu, I will leave this matter to you. On the premise that the existing funds are sufficient, recruit as many as possible, especially old masters. .”
"Don't worry, my lord, Zhu will use all his strength to share the worries of the army."
As the army gradually takes shape, the required expenses are also increasing day by day, and it must be open source! Yes, salt and iron!
"Have all the salt and iron mines in Bingzhou been recovered?"
"My lord, I have taken it all back. After receiving the letter from my lord, I took it back together."
"Huh? These nobles didn't resist? How can I say that the five northern counties were given away the salt mines and iron mines in Taiyuan County?"
"Yes."
"It's strange."
Liu Han was still thinking about plotting something in this matter, but the nobles and local powerful people did not give him a chance.
Seeing Liu Han's disappointed expression, Jushou felt ashamed, "The powerful nobles are just greedy, not stupid. This is the method my lord used to eliminate the powerful nobles in Bingbei. These nobles must know it."
"Did they hand over everything?"
"They only handed over the salt mines and iron mines that originally belonged to the imperial court, and it is difficult to get big harvests from those mines unless they continue to dig deeper, and some of the veins were damaged by man-made damage before we took over. We want to reopen the mines. , it will take at least a year." "Oh? Haven't you handed over the illegal income from mining? You are eating my big man's food and smashing my big man's bowl!"
Gentlemen, they are still pissed! "Zhang He, Gao Shun!"
"The end is here!"
After half a year of recruitment and training, all 4 new troops are now staying in Taiyuan County. A total of [-] people originally entered the new army camp, and [-] were eliminated.
"The new army has not yet seen blood. I am ordering you to lead people according to the official list and knock on doors. Not only must their illegal gains be confiscated, but they must also be asked to hand over all the salt and iron they have mined. If not, they will be confiscated. They used their private mines to pay off their debts.”
"Here!"
"My lord, this."
Jushou was worried that Liu Han's sudden attack would cause a backlash among the nobles.
"Don't worry, sir, sir, I have reached an agreement with the nobles in Luoyang. They turned a blind eye to the matter of Bingzhou. Moreover, it is natural to pay back debts. We are reasonable in this matter and are not afraid of them making trouble.
Now that the knife was handed to me, I would be sorry for their kindness if I didn't stab it. "
"This"
Jushou wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Xi Zhicai, "Lord, although we can recover the salt and iron, it will take half a year to generate income. Although there are donations from the nobles and our foundation as support,..."
"Zhicai can rest assured about this. Gu has already thought of a way. Gongyou, our store will have one more item in the future. Not only that, we will also open a new store. I will give you a month to prepare."
"Lord, I don't know what position this new store has."
"It is aimed at ordinary people. I plan to re-integrate some of the resources in my hands. Some of them are for wealthy people such as nobles, wealthy families, and wealthy businessmen, and the other part is for ordinary people. The name of the next store will be 'Pin De Department Store'. The internal layout of the store is I'll give it to you in a few days, and it will sell some things that people usually use, such as grain."
"This, my lord, would be competing with the people."
It was Tian Feng who said this.
"How can I compete with the people for profit? I am not competing with the people for profit by opening this kind of store, but also a kind of protection for the common people! The first is the price. It is only a little higher than the cost, but it must be better than the nobles. Secondly, if there is a famine, the powerful nobles will hoard and drive up prices. I just want to insert a nail among them to stabilize prices and ensure the daily life of the people."
Liu Han's explanation gave everyone a different direction, "In this way, this is a good example. It not only increases the income, but also benefits the people and suppresses the nobles. It achieves multiple things with one stone."
"But what if the powerful nobles join forces to suppress it?"
Zhang He said bitterly: "That's easy, let's see if someone's knife is stronger or their head is stronger!"
"What I mean is, they have lowered prices and people are buying from them?"
"Wouldn't that be better?"
Liu Han asked back, but Tian Feng reacted again and said, "My lord, you are a great talent!"
"Cuckoo"
While everyone was discussing matters, they suddenly saw a pigeon flying to the window. This was exactly what he had achieved in the past two months. Now, in addition to the inn, Liu Han also had a secret channel for passing messages through flying pigeons, so everything happened. It was so important that only the top brass in the military knew about it.
"What's the matter?"
