"There is finally normal here," said Quan Er's eldest son.;.

In fact, Hebei cannot be considered dense. The truly dense ones are the line from Jingdong to Qizhou, Liangzhe in the south, Jiangnan West Road and Fujian Road, and then Chengdu Fu Road.

There are many reasons for the lack of population in Hebei. In the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Shandong (east of Wushan, including Hebei) was the main battlefield, so the battle was deserted. Later, it was slightly restored and the Anshi Rebellion was also restored. Not long after, the Huang Chao Uprising was revolted. It was a truly cannibal army and the ugliest uprising army in history!

After the founding of the Song Dynasty, Hebei ushered in the Song and Liao War, and it really developed after the Chanyuan Alliance.

And it developed very quickly. In the best area of ​​silk in the Song Dynasty, Jingdong Road, that is, the best silk in Shandong. It is not Shu brocade, but Shu brocade is a craft, and it has nothing to do with the quality of silk. The second is Hebei silk.

However, the current terrain of Hebei is different from later generations. It is high in the south and low in the north. It is suitable for planting in the south. It is very low-lying near Cangzhou. It often flows backwards, forming a large amount of saline-alkali land, which is not suitable for cultivation. Although the northeast of Gaoyangguan is flat, it is the border and there are not many people.

Therefore, the places where people live are mostly in southern Hebei, and the mulberry and silkworm industry is the main source.

However, the Yellow River has arrived again, which has caused great harm to the people of Hebei, especially the mulberry silkworm industry. If a mulberry tree wants to make a plan, it will take at least three years to grow before it can pick mulberry leaves and feed silkworms. However, once the flood is flooded, all mulberry trees will also drowned. But even so, the population in southern Hebei is still much denser than that in Shaanxi. Shaanxi is densely populated, and the Chang'an area is gone! Other areas are no longer, which shows the trauma caused by the war.

Of course, in the eyes of Quan Er's eldest son, Hebei's population density was still very large. It was not until he arrived in Cangzhou that he was on par with Yanzhou.

"Yes," Wang Ju said lightly.

There were four peaks in Chinese history. The first was the Western Han Dynasty. The result of true unification. The second was not the Sui Dynasty, nor the Tianbao, but the Northern Song Dynasty, but it was a flash in the pan. No one paid attention to this. This reason was mainly due to the importance of agriculture and internal governance, including the introduction and improvement of Chameng rice. Chameng rice made great contributions in the middle. The third was the result of mixed grains in the Qing Dynasty, that is, the Ming Dynasty carried trees and the Qing Dynasty enjoyed the cool air. The fourth was the product of developed technology in later generations.

Bao Zheng sighed when he was in Jiayou that the crowd was unimaginable, and from now on, it is becoming more and more unimaginable.

But in Wang Ju's eyes, there are not many people. For example, can a village several miles away be called dense?

Quan Er's eldest son didn't know what Wang Ju was thinking. He said again: "Dalang, how about those two things?"

"That's it," Wang Ju said lightly. It's not good, and it can't even satisfy him.

"But they caused a sensation in the capital."

It was still placed in Xiangguo Temple like a quilt. This time it was distributed to tourists. Each person had a little bit of it and asked the tourists not to taste it. Many people asked, but none of the servants answered.

Especially those merchants, they smelled business opportunities again and asked again and again, but no matter how they asked, they couldn't ask a word, which made the merchants so anxious that they were about to jump.

However, there are also well-informed people. Wang Rong called these ministers a corpse and a meal, but Zhao Xu was helpless. He had to rely on these ministers to do things. After getting angry on New Year's Eve, he took out most of the two jars the next day, packed them in food boxes, and sent them to the homes of various ministers.

Therefore, some ministers thought it was something that was tinkered with in-house storage, and they had the ability to turn black and white Sima Guang down to see the river. Without Sima Guang, other ministers were helpless. After all, the country's finances were too difficult. Now, no matter whether it was a black cat or a white cat, it would be a good cat to catch mice.

In the end, even Wang Anshi paid attention to this matter, but it has not been sold yet. Therefore, Lao Wang will pay attention to it for the time being and has no idea.

But this is the story that happened later, and Quan Er's eldest son didn't know.

"Dalang, is there enough manpower?" Quan Er's eldest son asked worriedly again.

The stall is too big now, from Guanzhong to Hangzhou and then to Lingnan, Quan Er's eldest son is very worried.

"Second eldest son, you don't have to worry about this. If it is launched all at once, manpower will be a problem. But over the years, it has been done step by step, first with fine salt, then bamboo paper, and then soju. This has accumulated a lot of management experience for several merchants in Yanzhou and cultivated some effective economic people... If you don't understand, you don't need to ask this." Wang Ju said. Not only have he cultivated many economic people and managers, but also accumulated experience, but also cultivated many connections.

Besides, there are Zhao Niannu and Gao family behind this, and behind this, there is a hidden warehouse standing faintly. Who doesn’t have eyes? Not to mention that it is in Lingnan, even if it is placed in Daming Mansion, no one will dare to make any idea!

There is another one, that is, it is real open source. If you compete with the powerful in the Central Plains for land resources, it will be very troublesome. If you don’t seize the interests of the powerful, you will not be able to do so. You may be jealous, but you will not have a deep hatred.

There is one thing that is bad. Three corpses have opened Kapok Shop, and the migrants on Fujian Road will definitely not be divided enough.

The other person returned to the capital first.

Sima Guang, like Wang Ju, was just a quick look. However, Wang Ju was obviously more responsible. He even knocked on many frozen rivers, measured the depth of the water, and watched the accumulation of silt, including silt and sand.

But Sima Guang went down to see the situation on the two rivers, and after listening to the reports of local officials, he returned to the capital. Of course, the two of them had different physical strength. Sima Guang was Zhao Xu, a literati, weak physical strength, and Wang Ju was Wang Zhaoming, without distinction between civil and military affairs, strong physical strength, and when he was young, he was full of energy. Therefore, Sima Guang could not learn from Wang Ju.

No matter what, after running around, Zhao Xu immediately summoned the opponent after hard work.

Sima Guang replied: "Your Majesty, please, as Song Chang said, put above the upper limit on the west side of the Ergu River, and put the water in the east. When the east flow becomes deeper and the north flow becomes shallow, then the north flow flows out, and release the Yu River and Hulu River, and relieve the troubles of the west side of the Hebei River, Hebei, Deep, and Ying."

"Is the Yellow River silt serious?"

Sima Guang was mixed with all kinds of feelings. This accumulation of silt was emphasized by Wang Ju repeatedly, but it was also a fact. Sima Guang would not admit it. He also said: "Your Majesty, it is quite serious. Ergu River is just the new Yellow River road during the Renzong period. Beigu River was a little earlier. However, there was a lot of sand accumulation in the river. However, the original section of the river had only silt at the bottom, and there was rarely sand accumulation. Some riverbeds were even flat and low-lying fields themselves."

"Bump water to wash sand..."

"Your Majesty, it is not feasible to bind water and rush the sand. Besides, there is no financial power. In my opinion, we rely on the nature of the Yellow River and follow the trend. This is a guide to the guidance, which saves money and is also safe."

"Why did you choose Dongliu?"

"The water flowing north is huge, and there are many Taihang waters rolling down. In addition, the riverbed is raised and the water cannot leak, so it is easy to break the dam and collapse. Moreover, the water flowing north is longer, not as fast as the water flowing east into the sea. I have visited the entrance to the sea for only a few decades, because of the accumulated sand brought by the Yellow River, the beach spread and created a large area of ​​sand in the vast sea."

"Then follow your plan."

However, after Wang Ju came back, he brought another statement.

After the Lantern Festival, Wang Ju returned to the capital in a simple manner. He asked him to see it. He just saw it, but now the national treasury, can money be cured? No matter which first-class one is not. Therefore, he looked at it very seriously and brought detailed data, but he did not want to cure it, so he could not delay it. Zheng Baiqu will start construction again, and that is his official position.

The Yellow River is a big event, otherwise the dam will be short of every year, and the country will not be able to think about it, and Zhao Xu will immediately summon the right person.

"Wang Ju, Sima Guang is back."

"Your Majesty, what did he say?"

Zhao Xu said Sima Guang’s original words.

"Your Majesty, it is not feasible to flow north. It is not only the impact of Taihang water, but also the ponds on the border." Wang Ju said, taking out a piece of paper with the original ponds and ponds on it, which are lakes. For example, Liangshan, Liangshan Lake, is the area of ​​Liangshan Lake, is not much smaller than Chaohu, the five major tassue lakes in later generations. Wang Ju was just a quick look, but he also looked at some ponds. The original area is, and there are still many left now, and some even disappeared directly.

You should know that the real North River has only been twenty years. If it continues at this speed, it will take less than fifty years to disappear in Hebei. At that time, Hebei will be flat plains from east to west. The Song Dynasty will slowly defend itself. Unless it can obtain the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, how difficult it is?

Zhao Xu's face changed slightly: "According to your plan, is that going eastward?"

"The east flow is not allowed, this is the depth and width of the east flow measured by me." Wang Ju presented another piece of paper, and Wang Ju measured eight places on the paper.

Then he said: "I broke through a section of the main river of the Yellow River and measured its flow rate and flow rate. Although it was in the dry season, the flow rate of the Yellow River can now reach more than 6 million materials in one hour (a material and a cubic cube, for example, a 1,500-ton ship is a 1,500-ton ship). Of course, when passing through the narrow eastward flow, because the narrowness can force the river to flow eastward faster. But I looked carefully again. The river embankment on both sides was not tall and strong. If the water flowed into the eastward flow, a tall and strong river embankment must be built. Otherwise, when the flood season comes, the water of Beigu will be bound to the Donggu water, and the river water will inevitably rise. If the dam breaks, it will spread to the plains. Moreover, it is to build a tall and strong river embankment. Because of its sand volume and terrain, it will become a suspended river in a few years, and a larger dam will inevitably appear. This is the height of various places. Your Majesty, please watch it."

Although it is a quick look, these data are obviously more convincing.

"So whether it is a north flow or an east flow, now the court wants to repair the grass, which is not possible. However, it is limited to finance and can only manage the grass. However, if you want to manage the grass, you must choose some low-lying saline-alkali land with low yields, and use the mountains to build a second embankment. When the flood season is heavy, open the embankment and divert the river water into it. This can also be calculated."

"Can you calculate it too?"

"Now the flow rate is about six million materials per hour. When the flood season is large, it will be at least 12 million materials, or even 15 million materials. Then one day will be 180 million materials, and ten days will be 180 million materials. If a flood storage area is built, a flood storage area is planned to be 500 hectares, with an average depth of half a meter, and 40 million materials can be leaked, and ten flood storage areas can be leaked. Without these 40 million materials, the scale of the flood season will drop by nearly one quarter. If there is a huge flood, then twenty flood storage areas will be built, and the river embankment will be safe. Besides, the real flood season will only last a month. I have written it in." Wang Ju handed over the last piece of paper again.

This is not difficult.

For example, Kaifeng, the sixteen counties in Kaifeng only have a population of about 200,000.

Of course, there are more than 200,000 households in the capital alone, but the military households in the capital cannot be counted, and outside households cannot be counted. This also proves that the population outside Kaifeng is not dense. The reason for this is that there are many low-lying saline-alkali lands that are not suitable for growing grain. Therefore, the people raise silkworms and mulberry trees, or carry fruit trees. How many people can they support?

Then, there are several major herdsmen.

The remaining places are not very densely populated.

In Kaifeng alone, a large area of ​​flood storage can be set up, which is even much larger than the area of ​​500 hectares that Wang Ju said.

Since it is a cure, you have to come up with a cure plan.

Moreover, the release of water and silt in Kaifeng is also a strategy proposed by Wang Ju a long time ago.

This is not flood water rolling mud, but static silt. It is also the Yellow River water, but the effect is two different.

Zhao Xu carefully put away these pieces of paper.

Some people really don’t understand, such as the water flow rate, but some people understand.

Then he said, "Wang Ju, what's the point of your strategy very useful."

"Your Majesty, although it is a radical solution to cure redundant officials, it was a very risky way to propose generals at that time." Wang Ju replied honestly. If he hadn't heard it, Zhao Xu would use a move to move the universe and immediately start to quarrel. He said again: "It is also a trick. It is the same for governing the country and using military forces. Using the trick is a trick that cannot be obtained. It is best to focus on the right and the strange as the auxiliary."

"I don't want to..."

Wang Ju shook his head in his heart. I made it clearer. Since he planned to change the law, why should I summon Fu Bi to the capital?

You don’t even look at Fu Bi’s property. Can he support you in fighting against the rich and dividing the land? A rich man and a literary man can have good things in the capital? The difficulty lies in the beginning. The beginning is quarrel, how can you not quarrel later?

Forget it, let Zhao Xu suffer. So he said again: "Zheng Baiqu can't delay any more, I want to go back."

Zhao Xu wanted to stay, after all, he was about to take action, but after thinking about it, Zheng Baiqu really couldn't delay it, and he was not in a hurry for the past few months, so he said, "Thank you for your hard work."

"Your Majesty, don't need to tell me this, but to other ministers, they like to listen to it the most."

"Ha ha."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Wang Ju fired.

He said that, he returned. As soon as he arrived at the inn to pack his luggage, the postman outside the door came over and said, "Doctor Wang, someone has handed over a prayer note outside."

Wang Ju then paid a reply and was a little dazed when he saw the signed name. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
