Liu Song Hanque

Chapter 71

"Please rise, please, you don't have to be like this."

Liu Yizhen didn't believe a word of Wang Maide's oath...

Oath is the most unreliable thing in this world, bar none.

The maintenance of loyalty has always been based on interests.

Recently, Liu Yizhen hopes to use Wang Maide's identity and experience to cover up the source of "Chang'an Map". Wang Maide also needs the opportunity given by Liu Yizhen.

From a long-term perspective, Liu Yizhen needs Wang Maide's talent and wisdom to help him fight for the position and even govern the country, and Wang Maide also needs Liu Yizhen to provide him with a stage to display.

It's all about making use of each other. If Liu Yizhen really treats Wang Maide as his son in the future, Wang Maide will probably learn from Lu Bu and let Liu Yizhen know that "father" is not an easy title to bear.

"Right now, I will make you the Hucao of Yongzhou, responsible for the construction of the new Chang'an."

After Liu Yizhen and Wang Maide finished a political exchange secretly, they summoned Wang Xiu, Du Ji and other key officials in Guanzhong to show them the "Chang'an Map".

as predicted.

Everyone was stunned by the design of "Chang'an Map".

When he learned that "Chang'an Map" was drawn by Wang Maide, he was even more impressed.

But Wang Maide only responded with a shy smile amidst the praises from everyone.

"Wang Hu Cao Zhen is a great talent."

At this time, Wang Maide seemed to have returned to the state where he was admired by everyone in Hu Xia, and he became more and more overjoyed.

But when the wave of flattery passed, Wang Maide began to be dumbfounded.

Building a city is far more difficult than he and Liu Yizhen imagined.

Let's talk about the labor force in Xiucheng first.

Chang'an has a population of more than 60, among whom there are [-] women, old families, old people, and children who need to pay hard labor to build the city.

10 people is not a dry number, but a real person.

Organizing [-] people to do labor is actually as difficult as leading an army of [-] to fight. Otherwise, when Qin Shihuang built the Great Wall, he would not have sent General Meng Tian and his eldest son Fusu to supervise him.

Therefore, in ancient times, those who were capable of repairing large buildings would definitely not be too bad at commanding.

Although Wang Maide can be considered both civil and military, it is still a bit difficult for him to command 10 people.

There was no other way, Liu Yizhen could only run to ask Zhu Lingshi to come out of the mountain.

Zhu Lingshi was actually reluctant to mix with Liu Yizhen at the beginning, but the construction of the new Chang'an is a feat that can be remembered in history, and Zhu Lingshi finally agreed.

With Zhu Lingshi's help, it is possible to command these [-] people and let them perform their duties.

But the problem of people is solved, and another problem is involved-money.

Liu Yizhen can keep labor costs to a minimum, but building materials always cost money.

Even Liu Yu gave a lot of money, but after all, it was planned to repair Weiyang Palace before, but now Liu Yizhen wants to repair a city.

"The palace will not be built yet!"

Anyway, there is no emperor in Guanzhong now, so it's probably enough to put up an airs.

"Wai Guo will not be built for the time being!"

The construction of the city wall is the most time-consuming, labor-intensive and expensive.If the city wall is not built, the workload will be reduced by half.

What's more, now that Xiao Guan has returned to the Jin army, Chang'an will not face direct military threats, and there is no need to build a city wall in the short term.

"Some squares and cities may not be built for the time being."

The "Chang'an Map" given by Liu Yizhen is the capital of the prosperous Tang Dynasty in later generations.

Even if the new Chang'an is built today, it doesn't need to assume the responsibility of the capital, and its market size will be very small, and it will not use as many lands as planned.

What other gardens, etc. Liu Yizhen also chopped them down with a swipe of a pen.

In the end, only roads, drainage facilities, canals, residential buildings and other buildings remained.

Those who knew it was building a city, but those who didn't know it thought Liu Yizhen was building a village.

"It doesn't matter! New Chang'an can be built in phases!"

"It's called the first phase of the project now, and there will be second and third phases later, take your time!"

Liu Yizhen is not in a hurry to live in the new Chang'an, but is only using the guise of "renovating the new Chang'an" to improve the mobilization ability of the people in Guanzhong and to carry out the pilot of the policy of renting and adjusting the system. The new Chang'an will be built slowly.

But problems soon followed.

The first is the issue of people management.

The customs of the people in Guanzhong are tough, if a hundred thousand strong and strong men gather together, how can there be no accidents?

In less than three days, there were fights and homicides.

The cause of the matter was just a quarrel between two people.

This incident aroused Liu Yizhen's vigilance.

In the end, he admitted that there was a problem with the decision-making of the plan, and that 10 people should not be allowed to serve at the same time.This will cause small conflicts to hide and accumulate quickly, and eventually turn into big problems.

Liu Yizhen is not someone who knows his mistakes and never corrects them, not to mention that he is in the stage of trial and error now, so there is nothing wrong with admitting it.

Now we are crossing the river by feeling the stones, early detection and early treatment.

After realizing the mistake, they decisively summoned Wang Xiu and others to revise the plan.

After several discussions, it was finally decided to temporarily stop some people from labor.

In this way, 10 people quickly became [-], and later became [-], which reduced the pressure on Zhu Lingshi's command.It also solves some problems.

Second, there is the issue of sanitation.

With tens of thousands of old men together, one can imagine the hygienic conditions.Among them, I don't know how many bacteria will grow. Liu Yizhen emphasizes the importance of drinking boiled water and disinfection almost every day.

Once any infectious disease occurs, Liu Yizhen can say goodbye to his Guanzhong.

The third is that the enthusiasm of the people is generally not high.

This is also the most troublesome point for Liu Yizhen.

It stands to reason that the "zuyong adjustment" stipulates that as long as you do more hard labor, you can reduce the corresponding tax, but the people are not interested in this.

After several times of personal research and visits by Liu Yizhen, Liu Yizhen realized one thing.

It's not that everyone is not active in Zuyong adjustment, but that they are not active in building a new Chang'an.

Those people who are repairing water conservancy in other places know that the meaning of their labor is to make their own or the same village's fields better.

But building a cold city made these people very puzzled.

This is the limitation of ordinary people's vision, and it is unreasonable to talk about it with them.

In desperation, Liu Yizhen had no choice but to issue a notice in person:

All those who worked hard to build a new Chang'an will get a private house.

As soon as this announcement came out, the enthusiasm of the people really rose again.

The living conditions in Han Chang'an were indeed not good, and everyone would be very happy if they could change to a new residence for free.

Finally, under such stumbling circumstances, the construction of the new Chang'an project began to get on the right track, which also means that rent adjustment is indeed an implementable policy, and this era has the soil for its growth.

And Liu Yizhen, who has been "running the grassroots" for a long time, has also suffered a lot in the past few days. Not only is his skin tanned eight degrees, but he also seems to have no energy.

Fortunately, the nutrition could keep up, so Liu Yizhen began to swell up chunks of strong muscles.

That day Liu Yizhen was eating in a sluggish state, but he saw Wang Maide, who was also in the dark, looking for her with a green brick.

Wang Maide held the spinner in front of Liu Yizhen and didn't say much. He just broke it into two pieces with force.

This made Liu Yizhen furious.

Did the unscrupulous builder bully me?
