Chapter 939: People are not enough to eat in a big pot
While everyone was eating, a group of people came over in a small steam boat. They came from Xugou County. A group of officials from the county happened to be connected by a river. convenient.
"Guo Zhixian, go and tell them that the situation on both sides is similar, do as you please."
Zhu Fan saw people walking this way from a distance and didn't want to waste time eating. , and ordered Guo Lingzhong, the magistrate of Qingyuan County, to lead people to greet him.
"I understand." Guo Zhixian stood up, and the people behind him helped move the table, and the small table where they ate moved over there.
"Instead of going to Xugou County tomorrow, we will go to Ningwuguan to have a look, and then go to Xugou County and Yuci when we come back."
Zhu Fan said to other officials in the government , I came here to take Qingyuan County as the center and spread to surrounding places. I came here to learn many things.
Jinci Town belongs to rice farmers, who will turn it into tribute rice in the future and then sell it to wealthy family members who are willing to eat it at a high price.
The officials from Xugou County found that they could not meet His Highness the King of Jin, so they had to kneel down and kowtow three times. Guo Lingzhong pulled him aside to eat smoked fish cakes. .
“In the final analysis, there is still a lack of animal power and machinery for plowing. There are many people in Taiyuan Prefecture and little cultivated land.
We know that my father arranged for the three of us brothers to be on this line. Withstanding the Northern Yuan Dynasty, who would have thought
Now that we can mainly develop the economy, how about moving the extra people to less crowded places to help farm the land?"
Zhu Fan was worried again Up here, the war did not reach Taiyuan Prefecture. It is bounded by the Yellow River to the west, the Loess Plateau to the north, the Taihang Mountains to the east, and the Yellow River to the south.
To put it mildly, this place is called Mountains and Rivers inside and outside, which is exactly what it is. It lacks rivers, so many people hide here to avoid the war and dig food in the limited land that can be cultivated.
Zhu Fan felt that the population of his second brother's Xi'an Prefecture was small, and that of the Beiping Province after the war was also small, so he might as well give them an even distribution.
Zhifu Guo and other officials looked helpless. They wanted people, but were worried that some people would starve to death.
If you listen to it, it’s not bad. Everything is well laid out. If you act haphazardly, important things will be delayed.
"Your Highness must not send it to Xi'an and Beiping if it is useful to the people of Taiyuan Prefecture. Wait until it is mobilized and push it northward.
His Highness's fiefdom is in Taiyuan Prefecture. His Highness, Datong Mansion, left it alone.
Move the population all the way north to the grassland. There are few people on the grassland. From the grassland, it is the transition to Datong and then to Taiyuan.
While planting trees and pasture, they also breed more livestock to artificially strengthen the connection with the north.
Otherwise, what should I do? There is still a large area of land to the north of Helin, and the population is small, so there is no development.
There are mines there. There are many mines. You can find gold mines just by digging as deep as you want.
How can we leave the place we occupy idle? There are not enough people in Taiyuan Prefecture. , at least two more generations will come."
Li Chang pointed to the direction of the grassland and told Zhu Fan that that was the target.Biao, there is a shortage of people in Shaanxi, so don’t be afraid. They are in the Guanzhong Plain, so you can go directly to the machine.
There are few people in Peiping, so we are not afraid either. They live in the North China Plain.
Shanxi is just a small Fenshui Plain, and the rest is the Loess Plateau. Oh, there are also basins and hilly areas.
Why do you worry about other people's concerns? Hurry up and catch up with the grassland. There are still a few people over there with Lin.
"Ah" Zhu Fan responded casually and fell into deep thought.
The officials of Taiyuan Prefecture lowered their heads to eat cakes and did not dare to say anything. They just discovered that Zhu Lichang of Xiaqiu Village looked like he was admonishing, but in fact his tone was to settle the matter.
His Royal Highness the King of Jin must act according to other people’s requirements when he acts in his own fiefdom. Oh my God
“Let’s take down Datong. How can we calculate the fiefdom? Will my father agree and not be afraid of my ambitions? ”
Zhu Fan thought of a question and asked it directly regardless of whether there were outsiders present.
Sweat was visible on the foreheads of the officials. The soup was too hot and the weather was hot. < /p>
The officials were relieved and nervous.
The people still finished eating quickly and looked for work. Those who picked wild vegetables could not stop. There were medicinal materials on the mountains and they were collected together.
The guards brought guns to clean up venomous snakes and wild beasts. They skinned those that needed to be skinned and soaked those that needed to be soaked in well water. Then they smoked the meat of the beasts and took them away, not leaving them here. of people.
After a busy afternoon, dinner was the same as noon. The people who had finished their work relaxed and ate slowly.
For them, only after they have done enough work can they be qualified to eat meat and feel at ease.
When the people were eating, the craftsmen brought in the stove. The stove was quite large with four stoves. Naturally, the one in front had the greatest firepower.
The craftsman lit the stove and sat on the four pots.
There are also stoves used by craftsmen to burn briquettes. No matter which type, iron is used as grates and stove plates.
A steward from the Jin Palace ran over to publicize the stove to the people, explaining the structure of the stove and how much it cost to make one.
At the same time, I would like to mention that refractory mud is used inside, which is not easy to be burned. You can add three pieces of honeycomb briquettes at a time, and add them from the top when adding.
The people nearby did not understand what it meant, so the sergeant in the village explained the briquette stove and made several samples.
Now we need a lot of coal slime. The refractory mud sergeant didn't mention it. Normal yellow mud is enough, but the key is iron.
"I show you this stove to tell you that we will build a canteen in the future so that you can have a big pot of rice for several years and save cooking time in the village.
Xiaqiu Village needs work When the time comes, people are specially arranged to cook, instead of each household cooking by itself.
You can’t learn from Xiaqiu Village. The village guards of Xiaqiu Village are invited, just like inviting gods. Please.
No one in the whole village cares who eats more.If anyone eats less, the main thing is to eat enough, and the money will be given to the head of the village. What about you?"
The steward of Prince Jin's Mansion first mentioned the issue of a large pot of rice. Each household normally spends about one hundred cash per person on meals per month, which can be converted into food.
Then A big pot of rice is still 100 cents, some people say 60 cents is enough, and they compromise, and everyone agrees that 60 cents won’t allow you to eat meat.
When eating, use bamboo bowls of about the same size. How much does a full tube of vegetables cost? If you eat one, you will be deducted.
If you eat less, you will naturally have a surplus. You can add more next month. < /p>
If a nursing baby doesn’t eat, the breastfeeding woman should prepare some extra food, and the price should not be high, and she must ensure that there is enough milk.
Wait until the baby can take complementary food. When the time comes, make small bowls and calculate the money. It is recommended that you stop collecting the children before they are a few years old, unless someone does not want the children.
In this way, the daughter-in-law does not have to worry about the parents-in-law not being able to eat and work outside. There is no need for the old man to make a fire when he gets back from work, and there is no need to cook in the morning and save the food for lunch.
Except for the distribution problem, everything else is good, unless there is someone else. He is specifically looking for trouble, saying that the food is not to his taste.
“To talk about poverty, there was a place that was poorer than you. There was no Rouge River at that time, and the people of Shijiu Lake ate the Rouge River. Didn't finish the meal.
Later, Xiaqiu Village intervened, and the locals paid a portion of the money every month. As a result, there was still a lot left over at the end of the month.
This is how they eat. Therefore, we put aside the small profits and work more to make more money. Looking back at the meal money, we find that it really doesn't matter. ”
The steward of the palace introduced the people of Shijiu Lake to the local people. The people there made their own food and only paid for salt and oil. Later, they didn’t buy any oil.
