Chapter 1181

The imperial court has the right to transfer them directly to Shaanxi North Road, but the refugees are different. After all, since they have come to Bianliang, the capital, then if they can struggle to save lives here, most of them will Some of them are unwilling to go to the North Shaanxi Road.

In a word, the situation is more complicated. I am afraid that it will be so easy for those refugees who are still in shock and rushed to the vicinity of Bianliang, the capital, to make a living and travel thousands of miles.

After listening to Wang Yang's patient explanation, Emperor Zhao Xu also nodded in agreement. "It's because I was negligent, I really didn't think so thoroughly..."

"Actually, it's not difficult to accommodate them. It's possible to settle them not to mention thousands, but tens of thousands..." At this time, Wang Yang suddenly said this, asking the emperor to Zhao Xu and Duan Wang Zhao Ji both looked at him in astonishment.

"Your Highness, do you still remember the Huanglong Lake in the southeast of Kaifeng?" Wang Yang asked Duanwang Zhao Ji with a smile.

"Huang Longze, Xiao Wang naturally knows that it was during the reign of Emperor Renzong, because..." Zhao Ji glanced at the emperor Zhao Xu with some hesitation, and then mustered up the courage to continue. "A swamp formed because of the gap in the Yellow River..."

"Because the terrain of Huanglongze is low-lying, after the water from the gap in the Yellow River flows in, there is a lake with a square garden of nearly [-] miles in the middle, and it is surrounded by muddy swamps. Because the lake water was yellow and turbid at that time, it was called Huanglongze."

"It's only over 50 miles away from the southeast corner of Kaifeng City, right between Kaifeng and Chenliu."

There were originally people living there, but since the Renzong Dynasty, they tried to use manpower to divert the Yellow River, which led to many breaches in the Yellow River, and this Huanglongze is one of the breaches. A lake and swamp.

Although decades have passed, the water has not receded, and this place has become barren with the departure of the people who lost their homes.

"Could it be that Wang Wushan, you want to move those refugees to Huanglongze?" Emperor Zhao Xu frowned and asked Wang Yang.

"That's right, but I already had this idea when I passed by Huanglongze for the first time. It's a waste of such a large piece of land." Wang Yang nodded and explained.

"I said sir, didn't I tell you before? That's a swamp, swamp land, how can it be so easy to turn it into fertile land?" Zhao Ji couldn't help reminding Wang Yang with some pain.

"That's right, because there is a swamp, it is naturally very difficult for the people to open up and dredge the silt spontaneously. However, if it is thousands of people, even tens of thousands of people will work together to make the mud It is not too difficult to turn the pond into a fertile land." Wang Yang explained with a smile and raised his brows.

"Wang Qing, are you really sure?" Emperor Zhao Xu asked Wang Yang's confident face after a long time.

"It's natural..." Wang Yang nodded, and Wang Yang looked at the emperor Zhao Xu again. "I think that if you reorganize the Xiang army, you must not open it again."

"Da Song's army can only become more and more powerful, instead of becoming more and more bloated and lacking in combat effectiveness as in the past."

Emperor Zhao Xu took a breath and nodded slightly. "The Yellow River has been suffering for a long time. There are many flooded areas on both sides of the river. I don't know how many people have been displaced... If it is really possible to clear the silt and get good farmland, it will be the best to resettle those displaced people nearby."

"I understand, that's great. I didn't expect that I would let Wang Wushan solve it all at once. I will go back to the palace first, and I will come to have a long talk with you in the future..."

The emperor rubbed his hands excitedly and walked away quickly. Wang Yang looked at the excited emperor and shook his head helplessly. Even though he had been the emperor for several years, he would occasionally reveal the truth of his quick temper. Temperament comes.

#####
The emperor deliberately considered, resettled the refugees on the spot, and dredged the swampy land of Huanglongze to turn it into a field. The news had just spread, and it caused a commotion among the courtiers.

Especially Wang Shangshu from the household department shook his head a few minutes faster than the splashing drum.It is different from opening a porridge factory, building thatched huts, or using the original Jingshi Xiangjun barracks to shelter those refugees from wind and rain.

If you want to resettle the tens of thousands of refugees who have gathered outside Bianliang City one after another in Huanglongze, it is tantamount to building a new city there.

Excuse me, where does the money come from?Of course there is a place to come... Whether it is the new party or the old party, they all thought of one thing by coincidence, that is, where the money comes from, it is naturally taken from the treasury, but how to get it requires paying attention to the art of language.

"If you want to resettle nearby, you don't know how much property you will spend just by dredging the silt into the fields. You also need to build houses for the people, buy farming equipment, and farm cattle... nothing costs money."

"So, since those refugees are not organized into a Xiang army, but they are to be resettled in the nearby Huanglongze area, the property consumed will have to last for at least several years. As far as the current situation is concerned, nearly 300 refugees, The previous resettlement cost was about [-] million guan, and this is not counting the continuous expenditure for the next few years..." Wang Shangshu of the household department said in the court hall.

Seemingly seeing the emperor's expression become extremely ugly, this guy didn't forget to add another blow to prove that he was not just talking. "Three million guan may seem like a lot, but evenly distributed among these 300 people, each person is only equivalent to a little more than [-] guan..."

Hearing this number, Emperor Zhao Xu's face became darker and darker.

"Currently, the expenses of the court and the central government are just barely equal, and there is still nearly 300 million yuan left over each year for emergencies. But it is still not enough, and we can't invest all the money in this matter. "

After finishing his own analysis and judgment, Wang Shangshu of the Ministry of Household Affairs finally retired. As a standard old party leader, he did not make up random things and told the truth.

Next, another old party boss appeared. "Wang Shangshu is right. It's not yet autumn. I have a vast land and abundant resources in the Song Dynasty. Now that the flood in Gyeonggi Road is flooded, if we rush to invest all the more than three million guan, in case there are major disasters in other places, what will happen?" What should I do?"

"That's why I think that now that the Great Song Dynasty has formed an oppressive trend against Xixia, Xixia is no longer able to invade the northwest of our Great Song Dynasty, and the northern part of the Northern Liao Dynasty is full of wars and disputes, and they are too busy to take care of themselves."

"Therefore, I believe that in this extraordinary time, extraordinary things should be done."

"So, I beg Your Majesty, for the sake of the livelihood of the tens of thousands of people, can you first hand over those to the Military Weapons Supervision..."

Hearing these words, the emperor Zhao Xu's face immediately became darker than ever. At this moment, Zhang Yi, who already understood the sinister intentions of these bastards, jumped out and shouted sharply.
