A drizzle fell from the sky, like threads, continuously. The willow trees in the rain were already green, dotting the open fields. The rivers and ponds on the roadside were full of water, and there were frogs jumping around everywhere.

Wang Xiaolie wore a bamboo hat and a raincoat, walking on the path in the field.

The wheat on the roadside has been filled with grain, and the wheat seedlings look particularly strong and vigorous in the rain.

After visiting the field for a while, Wang Xiaolie grabbed a few ears of wheat and crushed them into pieces. Wang Xiaolie carefully watched the growth of the wheat grains.

Back on the road, Wang Xiaolie said to Chen Yuyi: "The locals say this is the best wheat field. In good years, one acre of land can produce nearly four stones. Since the beginning of the year, there have been frequent wars, and the people have missed the farming season. Luoyang

In the surrounding area, the wheat in Luoyuan Township and Pingle Township is growing best, and the food near Longmen Township cannot be counted on. Now is the season for wheat to grout, and rain is a good thing. But if it rains continuously, it will be a disaster.

It’s not good.”

Chen Yuyi said: "It's best to stop the rain at this time. What's the point of continuous rain?"

Wang Xiaolie nodded: "Yes. Just looking at the intensity of the rain, I don't know when it will rain."

After saying that, he turned around and looked around. This is the scope of Luoyuan Township. The terrain is flat and the land is fertile. It is not far from Luoshui River and there are streams flowing through it. It is really first-class fertile land. If you grow wheat, the land will be fertile every year.

The scenery can produce four stones, which is not comparable to other places.

As a thousand-year-old ancient capital, Luoyang is not only conducive to defense, but more importantly, the surrounding land is fertile. Along both sides of the Yinluo River, from Luoyang to Gongxian County, the land is flat and there is no shortage of water. It is good arable land. However, due to war in the Central Plains and the population fleeing,

Many places around are deserted.

Wang Xiaolie, an official of the puppet Qi Meng Bangxiong, was naturally unavailable, but his own talent reserve was insufficient. For a time, Wang Xiaolie was extremely short of officials. Political affairs could only be made simple and simple to get through this period. Wang Xiaolie not only had to care about the army

, but also care about local government affairs.

After looking at the wheat growth around them, Wang Xiaolie and Chen Yuyi returned to Luoyang City near noon. Before they entered the city, soldiers came to report that Chen Qiudao had arrived in Luoyang City and was waiting in the post house.

Wang Xiaolie said to Chen Yuyi: "It would be great if Councilor Chen is here. He can take care of many things. Luoyang is not as good as Xiangyang. This is Xijing, and there are imperial mausoleums around it, so everything is complicated. In the past, Henan Prefecture and Xijing Remaining Secretary

, there are only four or five members in Tongpan, which is not comparable to ordinary prefectures and counties? In recent years, we have occupied many places, but we have always been short of officials in charge. Many prefectures and counties are just local officials. How can this be done?"

Chen Yuyi said: "Shaanzhou's Five Victories, the world knows that the commander-in-chief is not afraid of the Jin people. It should be different in the future."

"I hope so." Wang Xiaolie sighed with some emotion. "If we don't use the old officials, we really lack talents. And if we use the old officials, we are afraid that they will bring their old habits with them. I am also in a dilemma. After Chen Qiudao comes, you two

We should build a school for training officials in Luoyang as soon as possible, and everyone must be trained before they can become officials."

Chen Yuyi said yes.

Wang Xiaolie said: "Now we have more than twenty prefectures under our rule, and we don't know how many are missing just to know the prefectures! Alas, it is not easy!"

After saying that, Wang Xiaolie shook his head and entered Luoyang City with Chen Yuyi. He sent a personal soldier to the post house and asked Chen Qiudao to come to the Henan government office.

Returning to the government office, Wang Xiaolian picked up his bamboo hat, took off his raincoat, packed up and changed into casual clothes. The soldiers came to report, but Chen Qiudao asked to see him outside.

Wang Xiaolie asked him to go to the living room next to him and meet him there.

Along the way, Chen Qiudao saw the dilapidated scenes around Luoyang and sighed deeply to himself. When he entered the living room and saw Wang Xiaolie, he hurriedly said: "Shaanzhou has won a great victory. The commander-in-chief has made great contributions to the country and calmed the hearts of all the people. He is really a hero of the country."

!Sit down, handsome, and accept my bows!"

Wang Xiaolie hurriedly helped Chen Qiudao up. He said: "This great achievement was accomplished by us officials together. Why should the counselor worship me? You have worked hard on the road and should have rested for a few days. But now there are no places in Luoyang city."

I can only force you to deal with things."

"How dare you, how dare you!"

Wang Xiaolie asked Chen Qiudao to sit down and served tea.

Inviting tea, Wang Xiaoxing said: "Luoyang is the Western Capital of this dynasty, a thousand-year-old imperial city, and it cannot be compared with other places. You also saw it on the road. After a war, what is it like now? We have to do it in the shortest possible time.

Rebuild Luoyang City and restore its former glory!"

Chen Qiudao said: "Jie Shuai, although it is difficult to rebuild Luoyang City, the most difficult thing is to have money first! This battle has been going on for half a year, and the supplies stored in the previous three years have been basically used up. At this time, Luoyang City is being rebuilt.

,Where will the necessary money come from?”

Wang Xiaolie said: "I have thought about it, part of it must be borrowed. How much wealth will it be equivalent to rebuilding Luoyang City? The debt raised for this is nothing. Another thing is that there are many water systems around Luoyang, and the rivers are huge.

, winding from the mountains. We can make a unified plan, build some dams, build some machines, and build several industrial zones around it. Industry is the most profitable, which cannot be compared with farming."

Chen Qiudao thought for a while and then said: "This will happen in the future after all. Where will the money come from now?"

Wang Xiaolie said: "In our bank, the money that can be loaned out is about 18 million guan. To rebuild Luoyang, we can borrow 10 million guan. Moreover, now that the territory is large and the population is large, we need more money.

It’s too much. It is estimated that eight million more guanhuizi can be printed in one year. If the two are added up in two years, it will be about 25 to 6 million guan. This money should be enough to rebuild Luoyang City.

.”

Chen Qiudao lowered his head and thought for a long time. Then he said: "We have been able to spend a lot of money in these years, and Yinhuizi and China Construction Bank have played a big role. If Jieshuai uses this money in Luoyang City, other places can only

The taxes collected seem to be very tight."

Wang Xiaolie said: "Consultant, there are two types of money. One is that the money is spent, and there will be no profit in the future. The other is that the money is spent, but it is actually capital. These capitals will bring in the future

Interest. In Luoyang, we spend more on the latter and less on the former."

Chen Qiudao said: "I have to consider this matter carefully. I can't agree to Jieshuai yet."

Wang Xiaolie said: "It doesn't matter, we all have to think about it. This is not a trivial matter, it must be absolutely foolproof."

Rebuilding Luoyang City has been something Wang Xiaolie has been thinking about for a long time. Building the city like a flower-filled city not only highlights the atmosphere of the Celestial Dynasty, but also explores post-war reconstruction. Rebuilding agriculture, industry, and commerce together can no longer be the same as before, with just an increase in population.

Land reclamation.

Rivers gather around Luoyang, and most of them flow all the way from the mountains. The water resources are rich. Compared with Xiangyang, it is more suitable for establishing hydraulic industrial facilities. With Yin River, Luo River and Gushui as the backbone, reservoirs and factories are built in a unified manner. In

Around Luoyang, an industrial base powered by water power was built.

Wang Xiaolie thought about this for a long time and decided to do it regardless of the cost. Although it will cost a lot in the early stage, the benefits will be immeasurable after it is built. The industrial revolution is not only the steam engine, but also many

Other industries. Without steam engines, many industries can be built using water power.

After entering preliminary industrialization, the surrounding nomads are no longer a threat.

In fact, now, after the great victory in Shaanzhou, Wang Xiaolie is convinced that the Jin Army is not capable of fighting the army he initially organized. When this army is fully equipped and well-trained, the Jin Army will be no match for him.

Rebuilding Luoyang City is a major event. Although Wang Xiaolie has thought a lot about it, a large number of talents are still needed to implement it. The most important thing for Chen Qiudao is to establish the foundation and build schools for cultivating talents.

Where does the money come from? In the final analysis, it comes from banks. On the one hand, as the territory expands and the market expands, it is necessary to print Huizi again. On the other hand, there was not much construction in Xiangyang in the past few years, and there is a lot of surplus money in the bank. It can be used as

Loan for the construction of Luoyang.
