Uncle Huang loves me to the bone

Hearing this, Lu Mingyu responded with a smile: "Probably he went to watch the ceremony. He is such an old man. He can take care of himself. Don't worry about him."

Changsun Tao raised his lips and no longer focused on Yun Fei.

He hugged Lu Mingyu and looked at Yujing City.

Autumn colors abound, and the golden sun shines brightly.

At this time, he suddenly mentioned the hundreds of thousands of prisoners in Guiyan City: "Yunfei's current state probably means he has no intention of controlling the situation in Northern Qi."

"Although it's not too cold in the capital yet, the people who return to Yancheng have already entered the extreme cold, and everything is depressed. Liu Xiaojie's memorial was sent over a few days ago, saying that it's time to allocate money to the soldiers and prisoners for the winter."

"These hundreds of thousands of people, despite their armor and sharp swords, still need food and clothing. Until Guiyan City is rebuilt, there is nothing to support them."

"Now that Guiyan City has been rebuilt, Da Qin has to spend money to support them, and the burden on the state treasury is not small."

Lu Mingyu asked: "How does General Liu describe these prisoners in his book?"

Changsun Tao smiled and said: "He has endless strength and endless appetite. It is commonly said that he can eat and work."

Lu Mingyu touched his chin: "Zhaohua, I suddenly remembered something."

Changsun Tao raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

Lu Mingyu asked: "Do you still remember the seawater intrusion a few years ago?"

Changsun Tao nodded: "Mountains are shaken and mountains are shaken, and dryness is destroyed. It is impossible to forget what we have experienced."

Lu Mingyu added: "A few days ago, when I went to Zhang Yuan to dress the heads and faces of the three princesses, I accidentally mentioned the intrusion of seawater from the south of the Yangtze River."

"After the seawater intrusion disaster occurred, Zhang Yuan participated in the dredging and was very familiar with the disaster. He told me that after the disaster, the terrain in many places had changed." "Hills that once had dense vegetation were flattened by the flood, and the mud Sand accumulates in the gullies and fills them up, creating a lot of wasteland that is easy to cultivate."

"It's a pity that most places in Daqin are vast and sparsely populated. Even if there is land that can be cultivated, no one will plant it. If it continues like this, it will turn into barren mountains again in a few years."

Changsun Tao's eyes lit up: "What do you mean..."

Lu Mingyu said: "I remember your ambition with Mr. Feng. You want to eliminate the barriers between Qin people and Qi people so that the two nations can be integrated."

"Use culture instead of force to rule them, instead of being limited to the territory and fighting for that little land like it has been for thousands of years."

"You said that you would turn the people of Northern Qi into people of Qin, so as to eliminate the war and change the deadlock between the north and the south for many years."

"We happen to have wasteland to cultivate, and there are hundreds of thousands of laborers who cannot be arranged for the time being. If we allow them to settle down and let them have land to farm..."

"You can also bring your family to Da Qin to take root. Will it not only solve the problem of prisoners, but also realize your ambition?"

Changsun Tao was silent for a long time, and then said: "This is a good idea. In the short term, moving the captives to the south to open up wasteland, settling them down, and allowing them to have land to farm can solve the problem of captives, but I'm worried..."

Lu Mingyu answered with a smile: "You are worried that after many years in Northern Qi there will be a hero who can awaken the blood of these captives. When the time comes, Jiangnan and Northern Qi will attack, and I am afraid that those above Jiangnan and south of Guiyan City will not be safe."

Changsun Tao nodded: "Exactly, I'm worried about attracting wolves into the house."

Lu Mingyu said: "It's right to think so. The people of Northern Qi are wild and untamable. That's something engraved in their bones. But..."

Changsun Tao asked: "But?" (End of chapter)
