Section Three Hundred and Ninety-Ninth Public Level

Hu Yaoxian does not care about the amount of gold and silver compensation. Unlike the lion tribe, the Tiger tribe has a relatively vague concept of currency. In contrast, Hu Yaoxian attaches more importance to territory, population, and food.

...

The road between Panshi City and Tianjing City has been completed.

The roads referred to here include highways in the normal sense and railways.

The wide road surface is paved with asphalt, and huge stone grinders are pressed over and over again, making its structure tight and become the highest-level template for ground hardening in this barbaric era.

There are drainage ditches on both sides of the roadbed, and rainwater flows along the convex highway in the middle and gathers into the large water storage area along the highway. The vegetation on both sides of the road is dense, which is to ensure the stability of the mountain and reduce the probability of landslide.

The railway specifications meet the standards of the civilized era. At present, the transportation is carried by animal power. Although the speed is slow, it is far greater than that of previous human transportation.

As a large number of people moved in, Tianjing City became increasingly prosperous.

Although the northern barbarians are barbaric, they inherit the most important "wisdom" option deep in their bloodline genes.

According to the overall strategic plan formulated by Tianhao, the Dragon Clan can only implement a planned economy at present. However, this does not mean that other economic models cannot be developed at the same time, especially for a private economy with a small scale and a small scale, which does not have a great impact on the overall environment.

People with a flexible mind have already opened hotels in Tianjing. It is a coincidence that the hospitality barbarians will take the initiative to invite friends to their homes. With the large amount of dragon currency used, paid services will also emerge.

Many people started running restaurants, but the dishes and meals were relatively monotonous. The most common ones were various stewed soups and stir-fried dishes, plus two steamed buns or breads. Under the intentional or unintentional induction of Tianhao, restaurants that concentrated on serving lunch and dinner appeared in many places in Tianjing. The specific methods were not much different from those of the civilized era, including one dish, one bowl of soup, and staple food. Those who choose affordable people can eat enough by spending two auxiliary coins. Those who choose tastes only spend twice the amount, and can get a single fried portion from the operator, with more quantity and fresher ingredients.

The appearance of the tailor surprised Tianhao. According to the civilized era, he divided Tianjing into four major districts, each district had a different number of street offices under its jurisdiction, and then down there were communities with smaller management areas. The daily necessities of the people in the area were distributed uniformly, especially fabrics. In order to reduce the burden on the superior government, it is usually practiced that each community is responsible for counting the population and allocating fabrics based on the specific number and "households" as units.

Smart people quickly noticed the business opportunities. Some flexible women took the initiative to take the initiative to cut and sew clothes for nearby residents. Just spend a few auxiliary coins and send the fabric sent to them, and you can get a complete set of clothes from them in a few days. In this way, both sides were very happy.

The emergence of the decoration industry is directly related to Tianhao. His aesthetic comes from the civilized era. Whether it is Tianfeng, Tiankuang, Changfeng or Xukun, many people who followed Tianhao from Panshi Village were deeply affected. After living in tall and bright buildings, they were unwilling to return to the dilapidated and low wooden houses. They felt the comfort of snow-white walls and tidy environments, and they were unwilling to return to the dirty and dark residence. Moreover, Tianhao became increasingly powerful. Out of respect for the Regent, people naturally paid attention to every detail of his life, including his residence.

The walls must be covered with mud and the surface must be smooth.

The floor must be filled with cement or slate.

Furniture must be exquisite and sturdy and durable. Of course, if the appearance exceeds practicality, the former must be the main one and reduce the existence of the latter.

The emergence of the vegetable market was entirely due to accidental accident. At first, the elderly stayed at home and planted in planned fields, and took out their own harvests to exchange them. Eggplant was exchanged for bitter melon, thorn melons were exchanged for cabbage, and radish was exchanged for green onions... This is not surprising. After all, no one has the ability to plant all the known vegetable varieties. Eating the same meal every day will feel light and the exchange will make each other feel fresh. As the number of people exchanging vegetables continues to increase, markets have gradually formed in various areas of Tianjing City, and people have also begun to accept the trading methods of currency purchase.

A member of a hunting team showed courage during his hunting process and received rewards. He was given a small half of the fanged pig. He had only five people in his family and could not digest the meat in a short time. According to the past, the pork must be marinated with salt before it can be stored for a long time. However, this man had other ideas and knew that the purchasing power of money and the convenience of using it, he wanted money more, rather than a few pieces of meat that might have accidents during the marination process, which would lead to mold, rot, and smelly.

Tianhao swore that he had never taught the barbarians a series of tricks as follows. The man brought a lot of branches, cut them into strips, then chopped the pork into small pieces, sprinkled with salt, skewed on the branches, and barbecued them on the street in the open air at night, and sold them on the spot.

With the first person to run barbecue meat kebabs, various types of grilled fish, grilled crabs, grilled gophers, grilled bugs, grilled shrimps, grilled clams, grilled out of the woods, etc., are soon to appear... Nowadays, the reputation of barbecue in Tianjin's night market is gradually becoming more famous, coupled with the cider and wine mixed with water, as well as sugar cane wine made from molasses from Jeju Island, all of which form the basis for the residents of Tianjing to enjoy happiness at night.

The price of barbecue is very cheap, with twenty strings of one auxiliary coin.

Wine is more expensive, with two large cups of one auxiliary coin, of course a considerable part of it is water. It is not that Tianhao and the local rulings deliberately become profiteers, but that people are already accustomed to such mixed water wine, and it will take time for them to fully accept alcohol.

Only with efforts can you gain.

People who work in manual labor like light wine and barbecue, especially pigs. Whether they are quarrying up the mountain or digging peat, they are willing to gather three or five people together after work every day, gather a few auxiliary coins, soak in the slightly drunk feeling and the delicious taste of barbecue, and raise a glass to congratulate the great Regent on his health.

The income of soldiers is very high, and they have become another large group of consumers.

This is part of Tianhao's plan. The so-called "high income" is only relatively speaking. Compared with the pig miners and prisoners of war distributed in various places, the income of soldiers is indeed much higher, but it is only 20% higher than that of the official Dragon clan.

Promoting the economy requires a large amount of currency as the basis. Before the official name was the Dragon Clan, the Niu Clan mastered superb alloy ratio technology. In addition, Tianhao's lathes built with water flow and wind energy are powered by reciprocating stamping mode. The three mints in Tianjing, Panshi City and Heijiao City are fully engaged. A large number of exquisitely made and uniformly standardized dragon coin soon appeared on the market.

Salt, metal, grain, spirits... All commodities listed on the strategic material list can only enter the planned economic circle and cannot be circulated in a private manner. Tianhao issued the strictest regulatory order in this regard: Once discovered, the whole family will be killed.

Fortunately, this was a barbaric era. The northern barbarians had a very vague concept of "money". Even the lions who had been implementing the currency system many years ago, a considerable proportion of civilians believed that currency was not as safe as food and cloth. They were not interested in the shiny round currency and would rather hold piles of wheat and rice, regardless of whether they rot or mold.

...

Tianhao has a clear understanding of the situation in the entire north.

The war against the Tiger Clan can only be based on the phased goal of occupying Iron Jaw City.

From Hulao Pass to Tieja City, hundreds of thousands of Tiger Clan prisoners were captured. It took time to digest these people, and it was not simply turned them into slaves, but instead of moving them to the north of the mainland as dragon clans who had reduced their identities.

According to the latest edict issued by Tianhao, the Dragon Clan civilians are divided into four levels. Among them, the highest is "citizens", enjoying the highest preferential treatment in various distribution materials and policies. Most of the citizens are meritorious soldiers, commendable craftsmen and industry benchmarks, and focus on cultivating land. The annual crop yield per mu reaches high yield standards.

The second grade is "civilians". The proportion of group between them and citizens is about 7 to 3. It is not difficult to see that citizens are actually excellent representatives of the civilian group. Citizens are richer than civilians, but they must accept supervision from the civilian group. Once the industry's performance declines, they may be replaced by civilians who are looking forward to further development at any time.

The third level is "disobedients". Most of the people who surrendered in the late war were the pigs, deer people, cow people and other tribe members who surrendered in the late war. The indicators of refugees in material distribution are lower than those of civilians, but there is no difference in the acquisition of labor positions and management positions in the region. Most refugees are engaged in heavy physical labor, such as quarrying, road construction, mining... Under normal circumstances, within five years, refugees can change their identities and be promoted to civilians as long as they receive a "qualified" comprehensive evaluation by the manager of the work area.

If the evaluation is "excellent" for three consecutive years, the assessment period will be shortened accordingly.

The fourth grade is "sinners". This group is mainly derived from prisoners of war, and the other is criminals convicted of labor within the dragon clan. They can only get the minimum material supply, with "eating fullness" as the baseline, and do not consider the quality of food. The promotion method of changing their identities is the same as that of refugees. In other words, it will take at least six years to become a civilian.

Comprehensive integration is the foundation of a country's strength. Tianhao has vigorously advocated the core idea of ​​"no tribe boundaries, we are all a family" from the beginning. Whether it is the pig people, the deer people, the cow people, or the Chi people and prisoners of war who later joined the Chi people and the regional managers, political workers and regional managers have brought the essence of this order to the extreme, and refugees and criminal people have gradually accepted the subjective logic of "labor changes life". Based on them, Tianhao quickly consolidated the underlying structure of the dragon tribe.

Of course, there is still a fifth class—slave.

Since last year, Tianhao has opposed the public and abolished the "slaves" group within the Dragon Clan. The slaves mentioned here refer to the northern barbarians. Although Yuan Meng and Zongyu have opposed this, they can't twist their arms after all. Under Tianhao's strong suppression, they were forced to pass a new ethnic bill, liberating all the barbarian slaves under the jurisdiction of each branch and turning them into refugees or civilians.

The Dragon Clan Act has iron provisions on this: except for whites and blacks, it is strictly forbidden to judge any tribe member (barbarian) as slaves.

The halo of outstanding military achievements enveloped Tian Hao. Even the fierce bull king Niu Lingxiao, who had always hated him, had to admit that the young regent was indeed unmatched in the issue of fighting against foreigners. Taking the newly ended battles of Hulao Pass, Gangwei City and Iron Jaw City as an example, both the occupied areas and the captured prisoners of war were more than the previous bull kings, and truly wrote an unprecedented record.

The Cattle Tribe and the Tiger Tribe fought for years. With the advantage of cavalry and the terrain advantage of the deer tribe intervened, the Cattle Tribe rarely wins.

When receiving the battle report, Niu Lingxiao was completely stunned.

In fact, as early as when Tianhao led the imperial guards to leave Heikko City to Bucks City, he clearly realized that the battle was extremely successful. However, the series of huge numbers of prisoners on the battle report still shocked Niu Lingxiao. He knew that Yuan Meng and Zongyu were more or less reluctant. These two old guys were forced to make a decision rather than supporting Tianhao to take office... Now, the iron-like facts are in front of him, and Tianhao has proved his strength with his enviable military achievements and won everyone's respect.

There are many problems within the Dragon Clan, and what needs to be solved urgently is the order and stability of the newly built villages in the north and the supply of materials.

A large number of people must be moved inward. Although the northern part of the mainland is mountainous, as long as you cross the first mountain line, there will be vast plains and hills. These places are suitable for living, and the surrounding areas have rich resources. The reason for restricting the development of the cattle tribe for a long time is nothing more than the vision of the ruler and the terrain that cannot be changed by technical means.

Most of the road construction work for the northern mountain range has been completed. From Tianjing City to Heijiao City, a total of 16 passes have been blown up in the northern area. According to Wu Qi's calculations, the first phase of northern development in the mainland will take at least two years from the beginning to the end. With hundreds of thousands of deer tribes, tiger tribes and dragon tribes continuously migrating northward, by the end of next year, the overall situation will undergo a major improvement, and high grain yields will not be a problem, especially the population growth within the dragon tribe, which will also reach the highest peak in history.

The ranch is an important part of the mainland's northern development plan. To this end, Tianhao specially organized 100,000 people to move to the northwest. The satellite observation data of the "Old Madam" and the ancient map of the cattle tribe both have large grasslands on the surface, which are suitable for grazing and are a large-scale habitat for sheep and cattle herds.

The varieties of meat supply cannot be single. Although the Giant Deer Ranch is good, it has a small area and cannot increase the supply of meat and milk. Within two years, the number of sheep and cattle herds in northern ranches will increase rapidly. In addition to various dairy products and meat, they will also bring a series of by-products including wool and cowhide.
