Dominate Marvel

It seems that this is because the old concepts have not been completely changed.

In the past dynasties of the Xia Dynasty, the imperial power did not go to the countryside, but only to the county level. For example, in the previous Ming Dynasty, order in the countryside relied on the power of the gentry. The people directly faced them, not the official officials of the Ming court. By the end of the Ming Dynasty, the control of the imperial court had weakened to the extreme, and these people became the real local emperors. The so-called deceiving the superiors and concealing the inferiors, especially the powerful gentry in the countryside.

Whatever government decrees are promulgated by the central government will be most distorted when it reaches the level of the gentry and powerful people in the countryside. Once people believe them, they will most likely suffer in the end. Not just once or twice, but after many times, no matter how stupid they are, the people will have doubts about the squires.

There are many like Qin Wu. They still regard the current village chief as the squire of the previous dynasty. They trust the government, but have doubts about the village chief level.

Today's government is different from the past. With the implementation of every new policy and law, the people can see the benefits, so the government's credibility is gradually established. Qin Wu traveled dozens of miles to Jiangning just to see and hear with his own eyes and confirm that the edict conveyed by the village chief was indeed issued by the government.

People entering and leaving Jiangning are bustling with people, including groups of carriages and horses, as well as people walking shoulder to shoulder. After entering the city, you can see one or two people in red clothes every mile. They are the most basic law enforcers under the Imperial Law Department.

Once something happens on the street, and someone creates a conflict and disrupts order, they are responsible for resolving it as soon as possible.

Qin Wu knows these people and knows that he can go to them as soon as possible when he encounters security problems.

However, issues related to government orders are not under the jurisdiction of red-coated law enforcement. Qin Wu went straight to the county government office.

Yingtian is a prefecture-level administrative district, and Jiangning is the administrative seat of Yingtian. It is a county, so naturally it has a county government. Jiangning is also the administrative seat of Ganzhou, a new state-level government that replaced Nanzhili. Therefore, this place has three levels of government offices: prefecture-level government offices, government offices, and county offices.

Qin Wu also knew that as a person from Jiangning County, he should go to the county government for consultation on issues he wanted to know.

Like Qin Wu, there was an endless stream of people coming to the county government office to consult on the immigration policy. Along the way, I saw three or five men gathering together and talking about this matter.

Therefore, Qin Wu already knew everything about it before he even arrived at the county government office.

However, he did not turn around and leave, but still looked at the county government office. When you arrive at the county government office, you cannot enter the government office directly, but in a courtyard next to the government office. This courtyard is a public courtyard and is the first notice office of Jiangning County Government to post government orders.

If there is a new government order, a written notice will be posted here first. Then there are the city gates, inns and other places.

The courtyard is not small, but it is bustling with people.

There is a high platform on one side, and the high platform is the announcement office. There were two officials reading the announcement over and over again. The people who heard the announcement squeezed out, and those who didn't hear it squeezed in again.

Qin Wu finally squeezed in and heard: "... Your Majesty defeated the Donglu. Because Liaodong is fertile, the land is vast and the people are sparse, so the people are ordered to migrate on a voluntary basis. Folks who are interested can come here The village chief will register first, and then the county government will organize the migration to Liaodong. Those who arrive in Liaodong will be granted 40 acres of land per capita, with no tax for three years, and those with high moral character and high prestige will be given the rank of civilians and enjoy honors and honors. Lu, lift the lintel and honor the ancestors..."

Qin Wu listened and finally felt relieved.

What the village chief said was finally confirmed here, and his worries and expectations were finally relieved.

However, the official did not finish what he said, and continued: "...In addition to the people who immigrated to Liaodong, there are also decrees for people to immigrate to the Monan Grassland and the Yunnan-Guizhou border fortress. Those who wish to immigrate to the Monan Grassland will be granted 100 acres of grassland per person. There is no tax for three years, and you can receive livestock and cubs from the local government without interest. After they are raised, the government is responsible for buying them back. The profits are huge, and you can make a fortune... Those who are willing to move to Yunnan and Guizhou will be granted 100 acres of land per capita, and can participate in the government The thorn vine planting project also has a bright future..."

Only then did Qin Wu realize that the policy of relocating people was not limited to Liaodong. There are also the Monan Grassland and the Yunnan-Guizhou border. These two places are also very different from Liaodong. As far as Liaodong, farming is still the main focus, while on the grasslands, livestock breeding is the main focus, and as far as Yunnan and Guizhou, you can participate in the government's thorn vine planting.

This made Qin Wuyi a little confused for a while.

After a long time, he squeezed out in a depressed manner, stood by the door, took a breath, and strode back the way he came. He had made up his mind about this matter, but he was still undecided about where to choose. He needs to go back and discuss with his wife.

In the courtyard, the officials' hoarse voices were still ringing over and over again.

The targets of the immigration policy are not exclusively ordinary people. When promoting this policy in the densely populated areas south of the Yangtze River, officials from various places also summoned local good businessmen and gentry.

There are good and bad people, good and bad businessmen, and the same goes for gentry.

The merchants and gentry who are still active after being purged by the army are all those who sincerely do business, have sincerely built bridges and paved roads, and have never oppressed and harmed the people. At least he never violated Ying Yi's bottom line.

For these people, the government still attaches great importance to them. At this stage, they are still the ones who control most of the means of production and wealth in this society.

Jiangning County Government, side office. The county official sat on the throne, holding a bowl of tea and drinking it. There were nearly a hundred good businessmen and gentry in the hall, all holding an official document and reading it word for word.

The county magistrate put down his tea bowl and said loudly: "I believe that all of you here have read the official document and have some understanding of your Majesty's immigration policy."

All good businessmen and gentry all said so.

The county minister said: "The migration of ordinary people is the mainstream, but as the backbone of maintaining order, circulating commerce, and spreading virtue, your Majesty also has requirements."

He said: "Liaodong, Monan, and Yungui are all frontier fortresses. They have always been bitter and cold places. However, the so-called bitter cold does not mean literally, but it is a place where dynasties have always been beyond the reach of the whip and lawless. However, the ambition of the emperor is not the same as that of previous dynasties. Things that can be compared and cannot be solved by the past dynasties are easy for the king. Although Liaodong is cold, the land is fertile, vast and sparsely populated. Once developed, it will be no less than the corn country in the south of the Yangtze River. Monan is desolate, But it has been a thousand years, and it has given birth to many powerful Tartars who are enemies of our Xia. The grasslands are endless and countless livestock have been raised. Once they are exploited, the benefits can be imagined."

This was recognized by everyone, but everyone still had hesitation.

The county magistrate saw it clearly and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has said: Historically, the Xia Dynasties have never left China, but have lived in one place, and no one has made progress. This is because they have never found any benefits in the 'bitter and cold' places. Your Majesty has it all." In the heart of the universe, you don’t have to worry about the stability of Liaodong, Monan and other places. The army will continue to explore, today’s Monan, and soon Mobei, and there will be a wider world. The order of Monan will never be chaotic, And it’s going to get better.”

"Everyone knows about road traffic and many of them are involved in it. Liaodong, Monan Grassland and Yunnan-Guizhou are important areas for national infrastructure construction. Millions of slaves are involved. By this time next year at most, all traffic will be smooth and convenient. , and there are also large-scale transportation vehicles that are also entering mass production."
