Take the system to become Uncle Liu

Chapter 164 The Promise Zhen Family

After setting off from Nanpi City, Liu Bei did not rush on his way. Now that the fighting has stopped for the time being, it is better to experience the customs of Jizhou along the way. He has not taken a good look at Jizhou since he occupied Jizhou.

According to incomplete statistics from later generations, there are 580 million people in Jizhou, especially now that Liu Bei has occupied Jizhou so early, reducing the war, so the population of Jizhou will only increase or decrease, which directly accounts for a tenth of the entire Han Dynasty. There are many, so Jizhou can be said to be extremely prosperous.

Different from Bingzhou, Jizhou has suffered relatively little foreign invasion. It is located in the Central Plains, with lakes and rivers in its territory. Although it is the origin of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, after nearly two years of recovery, the people can still live and work in peace and contentment. Overall, it is much better than Bingzhou. Now, it seems that Sun Bin's proposal to move the government office is not without purpose.

"Berwen, how long will it take to govern Bingzhou like Jizhou?" Looking at the scene of people busy harvesting grain in the fields by the roadside, Liu Bei couldn't help asking Liu Bowen.

"My lord, one side's water and soil support one side's people. This Jizhou is much better than Bingzhou in terms of location and resources. I think if my lord vigorously develops Bingzhou, I'm afraid it will take at least 50 years to catch up with Jizhou. However, my subordinates It is not recommended for the Lord to do this, it is a waste of resources."

Liu Bei couldn't help but feel a little unbelievable when he heard that it would take 50 years. But after thinking about it, I'm afraid it will take 50 years with his own strong support. If it depends on natural development, the gap will only become wider and wider. Now it is a competitive population. In the era of Bingzhou, the population of Bingzhou was much smaller than that of Jizhou, which determined that the development of Bingzhou must not be as good as Jizhou.

"Berwin, in fact, when we develop a state and a county, we should not stick to the cultivated land or population, but also pay attention to other aspects. The development of multiple aspects can make a place have a strong overall strength. Moreover, the same policy to develop different places will only Backfired."

Seeing Liu Bowen looking at him with a blank face, Liu Bei knew that he should instill these views in the people under his command now, otherwise it would be too late later, just like the later generations who carry politics behind their backs, a single economic structure will only limit development.

"Berwin, let me ask you a question first. For a place as barren as Xiliang, with vast land, sparsely populated and little rain, how should we develop it? Do we have to cultivate the land vigorously?"

Liu Bowen thought for a while, and replied slowly: "My lord, the rain in Xiliang is scarce, so it is absolutely impossible to develop cultivated land blindly. If there is no harvest in the event of drought, I am afraid that people will starve to death. But how to develop Xiliang is up to you." I am stupid, I have never been here and I don’t know how to manage it.”

"I'm very relieved that Bowen can think of you like this, so let me ask you again, if you mention Yingchuan alone, what did you think of for the first time?"

"Outstanding people, hidden dragons and crouching tigers, talents come forth in large numbers!"

"Berwen might as well think about it deeply. Why do people think of Yingchuan as a place where talents are born, instead of food production or other things?"

"My lord, because there is the famous Yingchuan Academy here, it is a place that countless scholars yearn for, so whenever you mention Yingchuan, you will think of these things."

"Bowen, Yingchuan is located in the Central Plains of the Great Han Dynasty. It has a large population and is the place with the largest flow of people. Therefore, the establishment of an academy here can be said to be a stroke of genius."

"The reason why Yingchuan is famous for its academies and education is to take advantage of its own advantages, so each place has its own characteristics. Therefore, when we govern a place, we should not always be limited to arable land or a small area. We must Take a wider view and make use of the characteristics of each place."

Liu Bei's words made Liu Bowen faintly feel that he had grasped something, but he always felt that he was close to it. I had this kind of ignorant feeling before, and it was when I was studying, when I was faced with complex knowledge with only a half-knowledge.

"Berwin, I'm just giving you an introduction. Don't think about it alone. Sometimes this kind of reform and innovation requires multiple people to think together. Only by working together can the best decisions be made."

Liu Bei's words woke Liu Bowen up again. I was thinking about it just now, and I was a bit obsessed with what I was thinking. I even forgot everything in the outside world. Fortunately, Liu Bei woke me up in time. I heard Zhang Juzheng's previous experience with my own ears. Yes, thinking of this, Liu Bowen's admiration for Liu Bei deepened.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully teaching a god-level counselor once, his intelligence will be permanently +2, and his current intelligence is 81."

As soon as the system's notification sounded, Liu Bei suddenly felt that his head seemed to be a little lighter, and his thinking became clearer than before. His intelligence is now barely considered a super strategist. Liu Bei guessed that this is the change of becoming a super strategist.

Liu Bei also didn't expect that he could actually increase his intelligence by just telling his subordinates how to manage the territory in many ways and in a variety of ways. Can it grow?

"The host's guess is not wrong. If the main host defeats a god-level general in any field upright, the corresponding attribute will increase, but it must be fair and just, and there must be no suspicion of cheating."

After hearing the systematic explanation, Liu Bei abandoned the immature idea in his mind at the beginning. He taught Liu Bowen this time that he was purely a blind cat and a dead mouse. As for the fair victory over the god-level generals, let's talk about it in the next life.

Liu Bei and his party walked for a few more days and came to the southernmost tip of Zhongshan. During this period, Liu Bei also went to the city to experience the economy of various counties and counties, and also inquired to see if there were any talents nearby, but they found nothing. Liu Bei could only give up resentfully. What time is it, the talents are probably already born, so how can they wait until now.

"Yaojin, where are you now? What is the name of the county in front of you?"

"My lord, we have now reached the Zhongshan country. In front of us is Wuji County. There is a Zhen family in this county. It is said that they are extremely rich. I don't know if it is true or not."

After Liu Bei heard about Zhen's house in Wuji County, he felt as if he had heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while, and it was only after Yuhuatian reminded him that he suddenly realized it.

This Wuji Zhen family is the family that has been asking to see me during the Chinese New Year. I originally promised to meet the head of the family, but then I ran to Daijun. I have always forgotten this matter. I never thought that I would come to the door today. Come on, it seems that God has arranged this matter somewhere.

"Yuhuatian, you arrange a team to escort Sun Simiao and Yuwen Chengdu back to Jinyang. Let's come to Wuji County to see what happened to the Zhen family at the beginning, and to order Zhao Yun to go to Luoyang to listen to orders under Qi Jiguang's command. Now Goujian has already occupied Tongguan, so we have to let it go, if Lu Bu leads his army to kill, Qi Jiguang's side may be unstoppable."

After seeing off Sun Simiao and Yuwen Chengdu, who was still injured, Liu Bei walked into Wuji County curiously.
