Chapter 72 Xiaguo County Town
Now the total population of Xia State is not even 500,000.
By this calculation, it takes at least 30 million people to be fully developed and utilized - it is really a long way to go!
As for the people in this world, there is only a little bit of development of the sea basin, and there are a large number of undeveloped borders between the territory.
Otherwise, there would not be only one million locals, nor would they recover so quickly during the famine, nor would they be captured by the Xia Kingdom so easily.
Yang Song really wanted to open the minds of the lords in this world. With such a large territory, he could only support such a few people. What did these lords think?
"It's really wasteful!" Yang Song cursed in his heart at these lords and sovereigns who were imprisoned by him.
"Since Bowen's meaning, should we build a town in the Linhai Basin first?" Yang Song asked Liu Bowen in confusion.
Liu Bowen smiled and shook his head gently and said, "No, what I suggest is to build a town on the ruins of the city of the original four territories to form a county."
Seeing the people including Yang Song confused, Liu Bowen explained: "What I mean is to immigrate to these four towns at the same time. No matter how many people there are, put on the airs first and talk about it."
"And according to my estimate, in a few years, these four places will reach the level of existing towns in Xia State. Although they are still vast and sparsely populated, at least they have used these places and left enough space for future development."
After hearing Liu Bowen's words, Yang Song's eyes suddenly became clear, and the doubts that existed were gone.
To put it bluntly, Liu Bowen's suggestion for the development of Linhai Basin is a replica of the previous development of Xia Kingdom, and it should be faster, simpler and more convenient, because there are already successful examples.
"I agree with Liu Junshi's suggestion. This is how the current development of Xia State is carried out, and there is a lot of room for development in the future." Xun Yu said.
Yang Song confirmed: "Okay, let's divide it according to Wenruo and Bowen's suggestions."
"By the way, are the names of these four counties confirmed?" Yang Song remembered that the names of the four counties had not been confirmed yet.
After hearing this question, everyone bowed in unison and said, "Please give me a name!"
When Yang Song heard that he wanted to give him a name again, his head was so big that he couldn't resist the obligation of naming, so he had to rub his forehead and rack his brains to think about the name.
After a while, Yang Song couldn't think of any good name, so he had to say: "The county established by four towns outside Tianqian Pass is called 'Siling County', and the town's name is 'Nanguan Town, Dongbao Town, Xiling Town, and Tongbei Town'."
The name of the "Four-Leading County" is easy to understand. It turns out that there are four territories and the lord's county. He takes advantage of it and wants to "whip the corpse"!
"Nanguan Town is the original Bill City, and to the south is Tianqian Pass, so it is named Nanguan Town alone." This is Yang Song explaining to everyone why he named it like this.
"Dongbao Town, Xiling Town is a town with a castle to the east, a town with a territory to the west, and Tongbei Town is a town connecting the north." This naming method is really easy-to-have - this is the voice of everyone.
"As for the names of the three counties south of Tianqian Pass," Yang Song looked at the many ministers with some uncertainty before continuing.
"The county where Tianqi City is located is called 'Tianqi County'. The county composed of three towns in the southwest is called 'Xinan County'. The county composed of three towns in the northern passage is called 'Antong County'!"
Yang Song then explained: "The river in the south that flows out of the Xiling forest and flows to the south is called the Yuhe River, so this county is called Yunan County."
"Antong County means: peaceful, peaceful, peaceful, and peaceful, it is also within the passage, so it is called 'Antong County', and the combination means 'antong County'."
After the naming and explanation, Yang Song breathed a long sigh of relief, picked up the teacup and drank a sip of tea, moistening his slightly dry throat.
"Your wise, I admire you!" Everyone stood up and worshiped him.
When Yang Song saw that everyone accepted the name, he didn't care whether the flattery came from their hearts or not, he just thought that everyone really agreed with the name.
In addition to these places where the people live, the Xia Kingdom also has Tianqianguan, Shanhaiguan, Feilong Island, Fugui Island and many small islands.
Seeing that everything was almost discussed, Yang Song said, "It's all over tonight. We will continue to have a meeting tomorrow morning. Please go back early to rest. Thank you for your hard work. Please accompany you to discuss it until so late!"
"Your Majesty has been waiting for you. It is the duty of your ministers to share your worries. How can you get the trouble? Thank you for your hard work!" Liu Bowen said in panic first.
Others also said, "I dare not", "should"...
The next day's court meeting was the last day's meeting, and it had never happened before that the court meeting was held for two consecutive days.
However, today's court meeting is a little different from yesterday. It is not necessary to discuss various matters at the court meeting, but instead, Liu Bowen read out the resolutions that have been negotiated and determined to the ministers on behalf of Yang Song.
After Liu Bowen finished reading the ministers, Yang Song asked: "Do you have any objections to this resolution?"
This question is simply a waste of time. It is said to be a resolution, but who dares to have any objections!
But Yang Song wants to exert the spirit of the "conference" and still takes the lead in going through a procedure. And even if there are people with different opinions, he really wants to hear what this different opinion is. Maybe there are really omissions, but it may not be possible.
Is the result? Of course there is no objection.
"Since no one has any objections, then follow this resolution to implement it!" Yang Song immediately ordered seriously: "I ordered Xun Yu to serve as the director of the administrative department, and Changsun Sheng serve as the deputy director of the administrative department, responsible for managing Xia Guo's administration."
"I accept the order!" Xun Yu solemnly followed the order.
"Let Li Jing be appointed as the deputy director of the Military Department."
"Let Chen Ping serve as Director of the Intelligence Department and also serve as Director of the Field Bureau."
"Let Yang Yi serve as deputy director of the Intelligence Department and also serve as director of the National Security Bureau."
"Let Yang Li serve as the director of the Department of Hospital Affairs."...
What was agreed last night was just an agreement and has not been officially released. Now, Yang Song has officially issued an appointment letter according to the agreed position and personnel.
After the appointment, the ministers present also changed their positions, commonly known as "changing seats"!
The first row on Yang Song's left are Liu Ji and Xun Yu. Behind Xun Yu is the deputy director Changsun Sheng, and the back rows are the people from the administrative department. The administrative department has nine departments, and the chief and deputy chiefs and deputy officers occupy some positions.
In the first row on the right, Li Jing Hao and Yang Zhong were sitting. Although Li Jing is a deputy, his status is very high. He is in charge of military power. Similarly, although Yang Zhong is only the chief supervisor of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, behind him is the monarch Yang Song.
Officials like intelligence and finance are also sitting on Yang Song's right hand, sitting backwards in sequence according to status, functions, qualifications, etc.
After changing seats, they became familiar with their new bosses and new colleagues.
Seeing that it was impossible to start now, Yang Song said, "Let's leave the meeting, and get familiar with the new position and new responsibilities after going down."
Chapter completed!
