Vol 2 Chapter 391: Juntun's idea

"Teacher, why is this?" The young carpenter watched the people hired by him start to work, and that level was not at all under himself. Although they had experienced many times in the past, this time, as the dominant Those who still feel magical.
"Heaven, please." Liu Yi glanced at the other party lightly: "Enter my door and receive my money. As long as you don't betray the teacher's door, you will have this ability. Go ahead and do things."
"Hello!" Pu Yuan bowed with all his disciples and silently retreated.
His eyes stayed on these people for a moment, and after seeing them go away, Liu Yi said to Zhou Cang around him: "The work progress is reported in time. In addition ... If these people have any changes, don't care, they just have to finish their work, If you do n’t want to come back, do n’t care wherever you go. "
"Uh ..." Zhou Cang looked at Liu Yi puzzled: "Tinghou, why is this?"
"According to that, I have my own reason." Liu Yi smiled.
"Hello!" Zhou Cang promised to turn around and left to arrange the matter.
This is a temptation or a test. When someone else asks for you or is subject to you, it is difficult to see the other person ’s mind. This time, Liu Yi gave these people the opportunity to leave their own and willing to stay. , Liu Yi will reuse, but if you want to go ... that's sorry, Liu Yi will give back the things given by Liu Yi, including the magical power that can give weapon attributes and ... ten thousand dollars.
Regardless of whether it can pass the test, Liu Yi, who will pay for the construction of the Great Wall this time, will definitely not give them. With their abilities, they will definitely be worth this 10,000 yuan. If they were not born in an invincible place, how could Liu Yi Will this ability be easily given to others?
Of course, if it is bought by the family in Jingzhou or is directly a person, Liu Yi will not take back the ability. After all, it is equivalent to using the family's money to help Liu Yi work. As long as he does not die to provoke himself, Liu Yi will not say much. In the beginning, these families and nobles were supposed to be exiled in the name of disciples.
Nanyang's fortifications are actually not a big project for Liu Yi. Now, it is also Liu Yi's intention from the outset to practice with these preparatory disciples.
Pu Yuan, as the only disciple of Liu Yi's disciples, has reached the master level and is also a disciple who is much older than Liu Yi. Liu Yi is not in and naturally becomes the leader among these people.
"Everyone has read the design drawings of the teacher. Li Kai, you are responsible for the excavation of the masonry, bricks and masonry and the foundation. Today, you started to use people to work. Yuan beam and carpentry frame are from you." Pu Yuan took Liu Yi The drawings handed over to him began to assign tasks. He was a blacksmith. He was responsible for casting this piece. The city building was not under his control, so he just assigned the tasks. After he finished, he was going to cast weapons.
Yuan Liang was the carpenter who asked Liu Yi before. He was full of ideas and had many ideas. Although he did not bring it from Mocheng, he had been with Liu Yi for some years. Counting it, when Liu Yi built Yueyang City Liu Yi, the full name is Cen Yuanliang, if it goes back up, it is still a famous general, but it is the kind that can draw a little relationship. If it is really a descendant of the Cen family, it is impossible to come to be a craftsman at this moment. Wen Yan said with a smile: "Why is Brother so serious, these things, I have not done so often before?"
"This time is different, the teacher is not here, we do it ourselves, and we must not be ashamed of the teacher." Pu Yuan said solemnly.
In fact, Liu Yi is very awkward about Pu Yuan. After all, a person who can be his father in his age, but he respectfully calls you a teacher, how much will make people a little uncomfortable.
Without Liu Yi's side, Cen Yuanliang was more active: "Brother, rest assured, this matter is for me. I used to watch the guru give money, but I can try it today."
Pu Yuan gave Cen Yuanliang a helpless look. He was the youngest and the most talented, and was most valued by Liu Yi, but his temperament was too much.
"If you did something wrong, see how you went to see the teacher." Pu Yuan said helplessly.
"There are drawings for all these things. How can it go wrong?" Cen Yuanliang felt Pu Yuan was too cautious.
"Senior brother, then I'll do something." Another carpenter who looked at some woods nodded at Pu Yuan, turned around, and left. He didn't escape like Pu Yuan in normal days. His sense of existence was very low, but it was Hard work, hard work, but not very fond of communicating with people, and a little stupid, often make mistakes.
"Let's go." Cen Yuanliang smiled and greeted Pu Yuan. Everyone had read the drawings, and there was nothing strange. After following Liu Yi for so many years, just read it again and probably knew how to build the city wall.
Pu Yuan looked at the mentors who had begun to take their own jobs, and shook their heads, all of them young people. Why didn't they learn the teacher's stability at all?
This time Liu Yi returned to Nanyang, in addition to doing fortifications, he also needed to help restore the productivity of Nanyang. This place in Nanyang was also a disaster-prone and difficult place. At first, it was occupied by Yuan Shu. With Yuan Shu as a person, how could he take care of people's livelihood? ? Naturally it won't be better.
Later, Zhang Xiu occupied a few years, which was a relatively peaceful period, but then with Cao Cao's two expeditions to Zhang Xiu, Nanyang's situation began to be less than a year, and the impact of the war. The place where the son's general died was resentful.
After the defeat of the Red Cliffs, most of the military logistics of Jingzhou fell on the people of Nanyang. Before the rebellion of Hou Yin, it was not because the people struggled for a while, but they had accumulated for a long time and had reached an overwhelming position before they rebelled.
In addition to the previous Nanyang Battle and the subsequent plague throughout Nanyang, the current population of Nanyang, according to the previous household registration reconstruction, is a total of 380,000 people!
Thirty-six counties in Nanyang is one of the most populous counties in the entire Han dynasty. Before the heaviest population, the data was 520,000 households with a population of about 2.4 million. This is recorded in actual data. From the beginning of Yuan Shu's occupation of Nanyang to now, in less than thirty years, the population of Nanyang has shrunk to less than 20% of the past. If they are spread out, the population of this county is just over 10,000!
This result, the Nanyang battle also has a big reason, incomplete statistics, the war plus the plague, Nanyang died at least half, this is the reason for Liu Bei ’s timely relief, if you want to restore the population of Nanyang, do n’t think about it in a short time. But the so-called unbreakable and inadequate, after such a devastation, the family in Nanyang is basically gone. Although it is a bit unkind to say so, the fields that are vacated ... that are all official, and the soil and climate here are all It is especially suitable for farming, and it has the advantages of fewer people and fewer people. In the past, such a large land supported more than 2 million people. Now, the same area, but less than 20% of the previous people, Nanyang will be in the hands of Liu Bei. A large granary.
But it is still too early to say that there are still a lot of plague patients in the quarantine area. What Liu Yi has to do now is to restore the normal operation of the counties, which requires the cooperation of Ma Liang and the Yi nationality and the cooperation of the people.
After Liu Yi returned to his temporary camp, the brush kept writing, and Xiaohuan quietly helped Liu Yi to deliver blank paper in time.
Nanyang is almost like a piece of blank paper, empty cities, and Liu Yi does not want people to live in for the time being. The ghost knows whether there are germs, or the evil spirits of the epidemic.
However, Nanyang is going to resume production, and these cities must be restored to operation as soon as possible. People cannot be left in the isolation area. After the spring of next year, they will continue to farm normally. The food from Jingnan has also been delivered. It is not difficult to survive this winter. , But can not count on other local funding every year, Nanyang itself is not a place where funding is needed.
"Xiaohuan, you go and invite Ji Chang to Mr. and Mrs. Bo." After thinking about something, Liu Yi suddenly looked up and looked at Xiaohuan Road, thinking for a while, "Please also bring General Yunchang."
"Hello!" Xiaohuan bowed down and walked out quickly.
Guan Yu and the three came quickly. After all, Nanyang, Liu Yi ’s right to speak is not low. Only under Guan Yu, sometimes Guan Yu has to listen to him.
"What's the matter with Bo Yuan looking for me?" Guan Yu sat opposite Liu Yi. Ma Liang and Yi Ji also sat down, watching Liu Yi wondering.
"Just calculated, with the current population of Nanyang, after the spring of next year, it is simply not enough to plant all these lands." Liu Yi said straight away.
"I have sent people to post posters everywhere, but I am afraid that I am not willing to move in. In addition, I also walked in the direction of Cao Wei, hoping to attract some refugees ~ EbookFREE.me ~ but I am afraid that it will not be too much. "Ma Liangsi asked.
After all, as far as living conditions are concerned, Nanjun, Jiangxia and Jingnan, as Liu Yi's key activities in recent years, are very rich in people's livelihood. Who wants to run to wasteland?
"I know." Liu Yi nodded and said: "So, I want to practice Juntun in Nanyang!"
"Juntun?" Guan Yu raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah." Liu Yi fumbled his chin and said: "In addition to the necessary defensive garrisons, the generals of the army, when the farmers are busy, go to the field to work, and when the farmers are idle, they are trained, and half of the food so grown is used as military resources. Half as an individual. "
The law of the Juntun has already existed since the pre-Qin period, and it is not surprising that everyone has anything to do with commerce ... Basic production can't keep up, let alone talk about commerce. The most important thing in Nanyang now is to restore basic production And then talk about others.
"This matter needs to be reported to the king." Ma Liang and Yi Ji also think that this method is feasible. After all, the population of Nanyang is less than 400,000, but it has to support the 50,000 border defense army on Guan Yu's side. I am afraid that it can only go before Cao Jun. The old roads of the country have more servitudes and heavy taxes, but it is only because of this that the popular hearts that are hard to come by are afraid of chaos again, but this issue involves the military, even Guan Yu, and it cannot be decided without Liu Bei.
"Alright." Liu Yi nodded and said: "It's better to send a few who are good at this aspect. After all, for Juntun, I just know a rough idea, how to implement it, I still need some people to do it. . "
"Well, someone would write a letter here." Guan Yu nodded.
