Because the Central Plains area has a large number of immigrants, the life of the Han people has become easier. Therefore, they have a lot of time and resources to give birth to the next generation. It can be said that in just ten years, the population of the entire world can exceed doubled.These days, there is no family planning, and there are no various contraceptive measures. As long as you can afford it and the premature death rate is not high, then holding a couple for three years is simply a normal operation.

The imperial court also encouraged births. If you have more births, you can also reduce oral tax and corvee labor. If you can have ten or eight children, you will really be a hero mother. The local government must also provide material rewards.

Then, the imperial court began the prelude to immigration.

The imperial court also encouraged births. If you have more births, you can also reduce oral tax and corvee labor. If you can have ten or eight children, you will really be a hero mother. The local government must also provide material rewards.

Then, the imperial court began the prelude to immigration.

The first ones to be relocated were the princes and kings and those who belonged to Chehou. The court promised that no matter whether they were princes or Chehous, they could use the land they entrusted to the country with Hetao and the land outside Hetao at a ratio of one to three. Carry out a replacement, that is to say, your original feudal country has a hundred miles, and if you take out fifty miles, you can exchange for a 150-mile territory on the grassland.

In the past, everyone thought that the grassland was a barren land, and they could not cultivate it or do other things, so even those who were good at repairing the earth were not interested in it at all. However, after working with the Huns for a few years After China's trade, people don't think so.

Not to mention the minerals on the prairie, livestock alone is a huge wealth, wool and cashmere cheese, these are all sustainable development resources, and on the border, a horse can be sold for tens of thousands of dollars, and a cow is at least Nearly [-] yuan, even if it is a sheep, [-] yuan is the minimum.As for a lamb, it is easy to sell for five hundred yuan. It can be said that as long as the grazing technology can keep up, then this is a pure profit.

On the grasslands, nomads need to live by water and grass, but in the Central Plains, the Shaofu has long taught the people the technology of making silage fodder. The folks mainly raise pigs and rabbits, and sheep and cattle are not large-scale, but they are also It has been proved that silage feed is not a problem for raising cattle and sheep. Therefore, on the grassland, everyone can still settle down and raise livestock on a large scale. In this way, it is strange that everyone is not enthusiastic.

Especially the few Chehous who have been unsuccessful in the Central Plains over the years. Some of them offended Liu Bang at the beginning, just like Yongchi and his family. Zi barely lives on the output of the feudal state, and in the midst of Chehou, he can only be an otaku.

But on the prairie, it means that the emperor is far away. The emperor of the Liu family can't go to the prairie to hold them accountable for their past crimes!

There are also a few who dismembered Xiang Yu's body and won the title of marquis. They had a bad life these years. It is said that Xiang Yu has spirits after his death, and they have been tossing in their mansion all the time, so that all of them have a nervous breakdown.At the beginning, everyone still believed that it was really ghosts and spirits, but after the Mohists dismantled the methods of some alchemists, they all knew that it was not ghosts and gods at all, but someone secretly causing trouble. If you can make troubles, you can't follow them to the grassland.

Therefore, they bluntly exchanged all the feudal land in the Central Plains for the territory on the grassland. After selecting the land on the map of Shaofu, they brought their own retainers and servants, and Feng Guoli was willing to The people who followed them left.

For example, Han Xin, he is much younger than the other heroes. Therefore, children have been born all these years. When he thought that apart from the eldest son Han Gong, the other sons would not get any share at all, he simply became ruthless. Instead of staying in Chu State, each with only one or two county fiefdoms, it is better to go to the grassland!Therefore, he directly took out half of the feudal kingdom generously. In the future, this half of the feudal kingdom will be reserved for the eldest son Han Gong, and those on the grassland will be distributed to other sons.

There are also Liu Ying's brothers who have similar ideas.Like Liu Heng, Empress Dowager Bo likes a peaceful life, not to mention, after Dai's industry and commerce developed, Dai's country was also poor.However, Liu Heng is a person with a relatively long-term vision, how can he allow others to snore on the side of the couch, although no one has said such a thing at this time, but the truth is actually the same.

After the Huns were pacified and assimilated, the importance of Dai's existence plummeted. Therefore, as the king of Dai, many of the powers of Dai were bound to be taken back to the central government. How could Liu Heng be happy to just stay in the deep palace? Among them, he was a Taiping vassal king. Therefore, he almost immediately responded to the edict to replace the country, and then took his own officials and many people to the grassland. His ambition was even greater, so he directly He chose Mobei and prepared to conquer Beihai.

The Beihai side is not a good place now, and I don’t know how much effort it will take to conquer it, but Liu Heng knows from some Huns that although Beihai is winter for half of the year, but there China's natural resources are relatively rich, and even if it is just trading timber with the Central Plains, it can make a lot of money.As for the problem of coldness, it is also easy to solve. Before that, Daidi had already started to build a warmer house under the guidance of the Shaofu. The kang in the house was enough to ensure that it was very warm throughout the winter, even in Beihai. , You can only work for half a year a year, and you can only stay in the house for the other half, which is also a good deal.

After some weighing, Liu Heng directly chose there, and Liu Ying, whether it was to buy horse bones for thousands of dollars, encourage the descendants of the Liu family to open up foreign countries, or for other reasons, directly named Liu Heng the king of the North Sea and gave it to Liu Ying. Heng has many privileges. It can be said that Liu Heng needs to pay tribute to the emperor regularly and occasionally send a little symbolic tribute. He is the emperor of the land in Beihai.As long as he can attract enough immigrants, then he will be the emperor there.Even, the imperial court allowed him the right to independently explore the outside world. In addition, his descendants are not restricted by the Tweet Order. He can give full play to his talents there, even if he establishes a brand new system.

With Liu Heng taking the lead, Liu Chang, because of his great strength since he was a child, is very superstitious about his own force. Therefore, after his biological mother passed away, he also chose to go to distant places to develop.In short, these princes, kings and Chehous have divided up the territory that the Huns will occupy now and in the future.

As for the Huns who surrendered, they have also been screened. Those who are skilled will be picked up by the Shaofu directly, and the others will be directly registered as households of Qimin, and each household needs a male , Serving the Han Dynasty for five to seven years can be regarded as atonement for the crimes the Huns once caused to the Central Plains, while others can stay on the grassland and help the Emperor Han to graze.

The differentiation and transformation of the Xiongnu lasted for more than ten years. In the end, the Huns were almost completely integrated into the embrace of the Han people. As for the Yuezhi people, at the beginning, it was indeed because they monopolized the Han people and the Western Regions. The transactions made a lot of money, but with the rise of the small countries in the Western Regions with the support of the Han Dynasty, all of them were dissatisfied with the Yuezhi people taking all the interests on the Silk Road, and began to oppose the Yuezhi people.

As for the Yuezhi people, they are not actually a unified country. The Yuezhi people are actually an alliance between nobles. Just like the city-states in Greece at that time, many nobles divided their territories and surrendered to the Yuezhi people in name. Wang, in fact, on his own territory, is his own decision.

The Yuezhi people split naturally, split into several countries at once, some leaned towards the Han Dynasty, and some, nostalgic for the glory of the Yuezhi, became hostile to the Han Dynasty. When the territory of the Han Dynasty is docked, the small countries in the Western Regions must naturally lean towards the Han Dynasty, otherwise, they will naturally be attacked by groups.

The influence of the Han people has been spreading, but within the Great Wall, most of the power has been brought back to the central government.

After seeing the other Chehou nobles who migrated to the grassland getting richer and richer, more and more Chehous also started to think about it. After all, farming is a kind of thing that is not particularly profitable. Well, animal husbandry is much better than agriculture. Of course, the premise is that you don’t encounter any plagues or the like. However, you have to worry about natural disasters when farming. Therefore, in comparison, the income on the grassland is higher.

People are profit-seeking creatures. In fact, after discovering the benefits of expansion, even the most conservative people cannot stop the expansion of the Han Dynasty.

The culture, technology and economy of the Han Dynasty almost completely crushed other countries, and various resources from foreign domains also made the Han Dynasty crazy from the officials and relatives to the common people at the bottom.

Among other things, in the north of Liaodong, the imperial court encouraged immigrants at the beginning. I don’t know how many promises they made. They divided the land and provided seeds and farm tools for free. As a result, very few people went there. What happened? , Later, someone discovered a gold mine there, and they could pan for gold by looking for a river directly. As a result, without the imperial court organization, those common people had to pay the travel expenses to go there.

The same is true in other places. After the special products from the Western Regions and other places were introduced to the Central Plains, everyone immediately glowed with unparalleled enthusiasm.

In fact, the Central Plains has never been considered as a rich place. The real rich place is actually in Africa. In some tropical areas, those places do not need to cultivate, but rely on the fruits on the trees to live a more nourishing life. up.In the Central Plains, the ancestors were all hard-won, with one knife and one sword. This is how they started from a small tribe in the Yellow River Basin, and later traveled all over the Central Plains.

For example, in Qin State, which unified the six kingdoms, at the beginning, the ancestors were nothing more than coachmen for Zhou Tianzi. What a good place to go? In fact, even now, Luoyang people still think that Guanzhong is a rural place. After all, Luoyang has been the capital of the Zhou Dynasty for many years, and there are still some Luoyang people who have seen the emperor of Zhou!

As a result, the Qin State relied on a small number of people at the beginning, and developed it bit by bit. It was inconspicuous in the Spring and Autumn Period. Compared with other countries, it was just a country like a younger brother, and it grew into a later overlord.In fact, countries such as Qi, Chu, Zhao, and Yan have all experienced such a process. In fact, during the Warring States period, everyone's land grew a lot compared to the Spring and Autumn Period.

Everyone has done this in the past dynasties. Although the Han people moved back to their hometowns, they were nostalgic for their hometowns, just like Xiang Yu wanted to return to his hometown after Liu Bang became emperor. If not, are they really only willing to stay in their hometown and stop going out to realize their career?

Instead of doing nothing in my hometown, it is better to go to a new world to show my strengths and exert my abilities. After I have achieved success and returned to my hometown, I can feel proud and elated. Tell others such things as 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, so that I used to look down on myself The people are also dumbfounded.

Therefore, the younger generation, especially the second sons and youngest sons in the family, who did not have much family property at home, were tempted by the temptation from afar and encouraged by the imperial court, they all brought simple bags and embarked on the journey of migration. the way.They can be farmers and ranchers in distant places, dig mine veins, and join the local reclamation corps. They can even hang out with those rangers in the gray area and do some worthless business.

After the development of navigation technology, many people felt that since there are many treasures on land, there are naturally more opportunities in the vast sea. Therefore, many people simply transferred their journeys to the sea .

The world is changing so fast that even elites like Xiao He and Zhang Liang feel that their brains are a little bit overwhelmed. However, they are not rigid people, and almost immediately let their The nephews and nephews followed on board, so that they could get a share of such a big change in the future, so as not to fall behind.

As for Liu Ying, he was a little uncomfortable with this rhythm at the beginning, but soon, his ambition was aroused.

Shu Yun used a little hypnotism, and Liu Ying dreamed of fertile land far away and endless wealth. After that, he almost became the most staunch expansionist.

When it comes to things like giving birth to a son, the people of the old Liu family are quite talented. After Liu Ying became the emperor, the harem gradually increased a lot of people. In just a few years, Liu Ying had seven children. Of the eight children, most of them are sons. Liu Ying naturally began to instill in her sons a sense of expansion, planning to select the most outstanding son to be the prince in the future, and release all the other sons to conquer distant countries.

Liu Ying's behavior is also understandable. In fact, as sons, there are few who don't want to surpass their fathers. As emperors, there are few who don't want to be an emperor through the ages. The old man finished it, and Liu Ying, in fact, doted on Liu Bang and Liu Ruyi again. To herself, it was more of a relationship between a monarch and a minister, and there was not much righteousness between father and son. When she surpassed her father, Liu Ying naturally burst into more motivation.

Shu Yun was very pleased with this. She once again planted seeds in this country. One is the seed of science and technology, the other is the seed of academic tolerance, and the other is the seed of pioneering and enterprising.As long as there are these, even if there are any turmoil in the Han Dynasty, when these thoughts are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, even if the emperor is no longer the son of the Liu family, the entire China will definitely continue to develop and progress until it reaches the stars and the sea.
