Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 1454
The name of General Shen Weizhou is very popular in today's Hebei, but in fact there are not many Hebei townspeople who can really see their style.

Since going north to supervise the war, the general has always been in the army, even if there are any government orders issued and implemented, there will be accompanying officials on the platform.Although the rural people in Yedi have been in the government for a long time, and have many contacts with Xingtai officials, they rarely have the opportunity to join the army and kowtow.

Because when they learned that the general was going to enter the mansion, all the Hebei townspeople arranged their clothes and lined up solemnly, waiting for the arrival of the general.

Soon, General Shen, who was dressed in a porcelain green brocade robe and a golden crown, appeared in front of everyone surrounded by his own soldiers.No matter whether everyone present had met the general before, they all bowed deeply in a hurry: "Xiaomin pays homage to the general!"

After saluting, someone cautiously raised his hand to look at the Great General Shen from the corner of his eyes, and what caught his eye was that handsome and outstanding image.

And in the conversation just now, Gu Chang also occasionally talked about the old generals in the old Jiangdong, such as "Yulang Jun". His demeanor, General Shen is indeed the best in the north and south, at least these people present are indeed the only people who have seen such a beautiful figure in their lives, making people willing to get close to them comfortably, and the majesty without anger and majesty makes people feel embarrassed. Unconsciously tense up.

"Today's banquet for all the sages from the village is all for Mr. Gu Shijun to clean up the dust. Before entering the garden, I heard the laughter and joy. Why did the sages of the village cherish the voice when I did this? If it is really a bad guest, then I really want to feel ashamed Withdrew."

Shen Zhezi strode up to Gu Chang, then turned to look at the fellows present, his tone full of jokes.It's just that everyone present has not yet recovered from the intimidating majesty of the general, and even if they wanted to respond to ease the atmosphere, they could barely squeeze out a few blunt smiles.

"The great general is marching northward, and even Shi Jilong, the rebellious and fierce Jie thief, will retreat and retreat. For example, the thunder in the sky, the might of the sky is honored, and the kindness and majesty are heavy, how dare you indulge in words and laughter."

Gu Chang stepped forward and said with a smile, wanting to ease the tense atmosphere.It was only then that the people present sorted out their thoughts a little bit, and wrote comments one after another, which made the atmosphere calm down.

Seeing that everyone was still a bit rigid, Shen Zhezi no longer insisted on the atmosphere, and waved his hand to signal to the hall to prepare for the banquet.

Although the governor's mansion lacks decoration, the hall is not small, with dozens of people filing in, plus dozens of strong and burly victorious generals standing around it, it is still not cramped.

"Since I entered the country, I have been stuck in military affairs, and I have never entertained the sages of the country. Today is also the time when Gu Jun assumes the new position, and I will feast on the sages of the country with me. We have a small gathering of music and ask the voices of the country. In today's environment, the old evils have been eliminated, and we have a new look. New look, if there are still difficulties and difficulties in the rural situation, you might as well make a small comment here. In addition to punishing the evil, you will spread the good again. If there are still famines and hardships that disperse the countryside, then you dare not boast of your achievements..."

After entering the table, Shen Zhezi began to talk eloquently, with a relaxed and gentle demeanor, which made everyone in the table less nervous than before, and the chatter and laughter gradually sounded.

Although the governor's mansion held a banquet, although it was lacking in delicacies, the meals were rich in variety.There is no lack of communication between food and drink. The villagers may still be frightened by the majesty of the general and dare not talk about too sharp topics, but there is also a lack of cunning that belongs to the villagers. The thinking of Weizhou administration.

Of course, this is also one of the reasons why Shen Zhezi called the villagers to the banquet. Through the conversation, he learned about the various demands of these villagers in Yedi, and gave Gu Chang this opportunity to learn more about the nostalgia. Measures to restore governance.

Weizhou can be said to be the leading place in Hebei, and it will also be one of Xingtai's key operating areas in the future.All kinds of foundations such as agriculture and industry are very good.

Previously, through the deployment of rural products and the like, the Governor's Mansion directly controlled tens of thousands of hectares of cultivated land just around Yedi.These arable lands are different from the wilderness that was abandoned due to the war. They were all scattered in the rural households in the countryside before, and they have been cultivated all the time.

Of course, these arable lands have no direct relationship with the villagers at the moment, and will be used as capital directly controlled by the Governor's Mansion for farming after the beginning of spring.With these foundations, the subsequent land reclamation can also be carried out calmly.

In Weizhou at present, there are more than [-] villagers who have been initially naturalized.This number is really not much. We must know that during the early years of the Central Plains War, when King Shikan of Jie Kingdom Wei controlled this territory, there were more than [-] households.Of course, after the fall of Shi Kan, Xingtai sent a large number of Hebei people to Henan, with a total of hundreds of thousands, which became an important foundation for Xingtai's real rise in the future.

However, the advantage of Yedi lies here. Although a large number of people were recruited and relocated by the Southern Kingdom in the early years, refugees who were displaced from all directions gathered here.After all, even if it is starting from scratch to earn a living, it is better to earn a living in Ye than in other places.

The year before last, Maqiu's Jie army was forced to withdraw from this area due to the general situation. Under the joint force of Fangtou and the southern Hebei king's division, there was not enough time to recruit and plunder the living people in this area, and the vitality of the people's livelihood in Ye would not be reduced. Too many losses.

Wang Shi was like this last year. Although some sorting out was carried out, after all, the main responsibility was the Northern Expedition.Therefore, there is still a lot of potential to be tapped in the countryside. If all the villagers in this area can be naturalized, the number of naturalized residents is expected to reach between [-] and [-].

Xingtai encourages industry and commerce, but strictly controls farming and weaving agriculture, which is the basis of people's livelihood.After all, in a regime where farming is the mainstay, only land and population can most intuitively reflect national power, and it is also the most stable increase in the total wealth of the entire regime.

Because Xingtai itself has super strong administrative capabilities, and the future war tasks are still very heavy, for the long-ravaged land in Hebei, Xingtai did not directly adopt land equalization and land granting, and still maintained a policy of centralized reclamation.

In order to build several large-scale and stable large-scale granary bases in the shortest possible time, while taking into account the people's livelihood, they will be used to support the continued use of troops to the north, even if the country of Jie is conquered, and the country of Dai on the plug And Xianbei in Liaodong.In order to completely conquer these two foreign captive opponents, Hebei in the future should be in a state of armament within ten to twenty years.

The improvement of social wealth to people's livelihood needs to rely on the development of industry and commerce, and Weizhou is one of the regions that needs to focus on development.

The current industrial base in Weizhou is still very weak. Even if there is, it is only simple wood and stone mining, mineral excavation, and firing bricks and tiles.However, the industrial prospect is very bright. If you only list bricks and tiles, even if it only meets the needs of the reconstruction of many local cities in Hebei, the industry can be quickly spread, reaching its peak in the next two to three years, and cultivating a batch of skills. Superb craftsmen.

Of course, if it stops there, this industry can barely meet the basic needs of local people's livelihood.And after reaching saturation, there is bound to be a big drop.

As for the line of thinking of the platform, after the kiln bricks in this environment reach a certain scale, we will base ourselves on it and make more lean.For example, in the development of ceramic firing, Hebei has been ahead of Jiangdong in terms of craftsmanship for a long time. When Shen's developed his own ceramic industry in the past, he recruited a large number of craftsmen from Hebei.In Hebei, this kind of technological foundation still exists, but it needs a period of collection and guidance.

In addition, Weizhou has another advantage, that is, glazed tiles with a higher craftsmanship than ordinary bricks and tiles.Glazed tiles are one of the most high-end materials in architecture. In addition to the craftsmanship itself, the requirements for raw materials are also very high, and this craft has a very good foundation in Yecheng.

There is Cishan in Weizhou, and within the scope of Cishan, there are huge reserves of green soil, pot soil and other raw materials suitable for firing glazed tiles.It turns out that Shihu, the master of Jie, built many temples around Yecheng, and glazed tiles were widely used in these temples.

After Master Wang came here, although many temples were destroyed, there were still a lot of remnants left. Even from the critical point of view of General Shen, the craftsmanship of these glazed tiles has reached a fairly mature level.

If such an industrial cluster can be formed in Weizhou, with the unification of the world, people's livelihood will gradually recover, and the demand for construction will be greater. Glazed tiles, a high-end material, will definitely become a hot commodity for all parties, enough to support this craft Become the pillar industry of Weizhou.

With business contacts, there will be communication in terms of human feelings and customs, which is of great significance for Hebei to truly integrate into Xingtai or under the rule of the new dynasty in the future.Beyond that, the benefit of all this isn't even the most important.

Therefore, when Gu Chang directly talked about the prospects of these industries in the meeting, all the villagers in Yedi were amazed and full of yearning.In particular, the Wang family, who already had a lot of property, was so happy that he even donated tens of thousands of square meters of green bricks to support the construction of Yecheng. Under the care of Mr. Shi, we can always maintain our leading position in the industry.

Shen Zhezi is happy to see the success of the communication and exchange between Gu Chang and the local fellows present.Of course, Hebei's potential does not stop there. It is natural that its land can be ahead of Jiangdong for a long time.Even if the Jie country can only maintain a rather rough and crude rule, it can still support its country to unify the entire north for a time.In the future, this territory will be governed as a whole, and it will become an important territory support for the new dynasty.

After the meal was over, Shen Zhezi didn't get up and leave immediately. He was very interested in getting a set of tea drinking utensils, and then continued to invite people to drink tea in the hall.

The so-called communication and exchange, in addition to exploring the potential and value of their crafts for Hebei locals, of course also needs to be conveyed.As tea has been a food and drink product that Xingtai has been pushing for these years, Shen Zhezi naturally will not miss this opportunity to show Hebei Shiliu the tea drinking culture that has become popular in Heluo.
