In the Guangling City in Xuzhou, today there are thousands of people in Guangling City. In an instant, the entire Guangling City gathered Han people from all over the world, including dignitaries, ordinary people, and more of them merchants.

Within ten days, the passenger flow in Guangling City reached dozens of times the previous ones.

There is a reason why so many people came.

A few months ago, the Yangzhou Navy, who set out from Guangling and was a Yangzhou Junquan-class warship and set off with a huge caravan, was coming back.

This is the reason why there are so many people missing this time.

The navy has returned but it is not satisfactory, but this time I came back with the caravan, which has made the entire Yangzhou area boil.

Especially, there have been ships coming back to report the news.

Above a tall building at the port of Guangling City, a group of people were looking at the sky coast.

Upstairs and downstairs, there are soldiers and armor guards. You can tell at a glance that they are the nobles.

"Your Highness is here, I am in a position to welcome you. Please ask Your Highness to atone for your sins!" A middle-aged scholar came to the high building in his official robe, and behind him he knelt down to the nobles in the building with dozens of officials.

"Isn't that our governor!" Someone could see the identity of the middle-aged scholar at a glance and shouted loudly.

"Yes, that's really Lord Governor. Look, isn't he the Prefect on his left?"

"It's true, not only is there a governor, but there is also a way to go!"

Some well-informed people in Guangling naturally recognized the identities of middle-aged scholars and others.

The governor of a state can be said to be at the level of a governor, but such a person kneeled down to a young man in the building, the identity of this young man.

"Mr. Governor asked him to be Your Highness? Could it be?" Someone vaguely guessed.

"Brother Yuanlong, why do you have to be so disgusting?" A helpless voice sounded in the building, and a man in a royal robe walked out and said to the governor of Xuzhou over there.

"Ah, really Your Highness, Your Highness, the King of Han!" Liu Mang's appearance rate can be considered very high in Yangzhou. Those literati and gentry, from the people to the Dawn, who were representatives of all walks of life, had seen Liu Mang. Liu Mang was also very friendly to the people and went to the fields many times to enjoy the harvest or sowing season.

And the governor of Xuzhou is not a stranger, but his former team of Lu Bujun, our Chen Deng and Mr. Chen Yuanlong.

Chen Deng looked at the man in front of him who was called His Highness the King of Han. In just a few years, the whole world has undergone earth-shaking changes. Just a few years ago, on this land in Xuzhou, Chen Deng and Chen Yuanlong also led tens of thousands of troops under his command to encircle and intercept the young people in front of him and the defeated generals of Lu Bu.

It almost turned Lu Bu's army into a kind of history in the world of this great Han Dynasty.

However, it was from that time that he, Chen Deng and Chen Yuanlong, got on the Lu Bu army's warship. Later, the Lu Bu army changed and became the current Yangzhou army. He, Chen Deng and Chen Yuanlong, was able to return to Guli, from the beginning of the prefect of Guangling, now he, became the governor of Xuzhou.

Liu Mang has only a few states under his command, so it is enough to show how important the position of the Xuzhou governor was released.

Chen Deng was stunned after thinking about it, and even forgot to listen to Liu Mang's shouting next to him. "Bold!" The two door gods around Liu Mang stopped working, especially Guan Hai.

Guan Hai now completely regarded protecting Liu Mang as the first priority, and he was very loyal to his function as a dog.

How can anyone ignore the words of His Highness the King of Han in Yangzhou?

Even this governor of Xuzhou cannot do it.

"Oh!" Liu Mang waved his hand to stop Guan Hai. Chen Deng was the old man of Lu Bu's army and made great contributions to Lu Bu's army. His Guangling Army was once the predecessor of his Liu Mang's urban management army.

"Ah!" Chen Deng then reacted, "Your Highness, please forgive me, I have just been distracted!"

"Haha, our governor, do you miss that girl? This is not OK? I want to tell my sister-in-law!" Liu Mang said with a haha.

This awkward atmosphere swept away.

Liu Mang asked Chen Deng to take the seat. The purpose of their visit was the same, that is, to wait for the warriors who returned from overseas to return to the land of Yangzhou.

There are many storms above the sea, so there is no agreement on the natural journey and the plan.

Originally, the ships that came back to report the news said that according to the water route, these ships that went to sea should have returned last night, but they have been delayed until today but still cannot see any ships.

Bored, the waiting time is always long.

Above the tall building, the tea has been replaced one pot after another, and Liu Mang has gone to the toilet several times.

"Your Highness, why not, let's go back first!" Chen Deng said respectfully to Liu Mang.

Liu Mang shook his head. He looked at Chen Deng. Things are impermanent and everything has changed. Chen Deng was wearing white clothes, with a gap in his chest, and on the battlefield, he was full of strength. Moreover, Chen Deng's martial arts are not weak, which is even stronger than Liu Mang, the second-rate peak.

He was silent and humble at the beginning, and the Confucian style was sharp and refined.

However, after meeting like this, there was less closeness than before, and instead there was a kind of respect.

Even though Liu Mang was prepared for a long time, he was smiling bitterly in his heart. Is it cold to the heights? It has happened in Yangzhou, and now it has happened in Xuzhou.

In the past, Liu Mang could call Yang Hong Uncle Hong, but now Yang Hong was beaten to death and was unwilling to agree. In the past, he could get along with Cheng Yu, Huang Xu and others, but now when he meets, he is always from the front and back of His Highness. It’s so uncomfortable.

The only ones among these individuals did not become much, including Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu, but one of them was still far away in Xiliang, while the other was so busy that they couldn't get out of their spare time.

"It's delicious, delicious!" Just as Liu Mang was feeling, the voice of a foodie came over there.

Liu Mang's mouth was twitching. If he had to calculate it, Liu Mo had really forgotten someone, that was Zhou Cang's trap. People say that one can learn from one's mistakes, but Zhou Cang is a completely negative textbook.

Because of his excessive talk, Liu Mang gave him some punishment, such as going to the kitchen to help, just look at it and not eat it, such as going to the stable to help.

All kinds of punishments, but Zhou Cang still doesn't care.

You punish you and I do mine, which makes Liu Mang so angry that his teeth are itchy.

"Yuanlong, how about the harvest in Xuzhou like this?" Liu Mang chatted with Chen Deng over there.

"Report to your Highness, Xuzhou is a bumper harvest this year!" Chen Deng's face showed a hint of red light, and Xuzhou was thriving under his command. Liu Mang also nodded. Xuzhou's food and grass supply this year is almost comparable to Yangzhou.

"Just!" Chen Deng said.

"It's just something!" Liu Mang asked in confusion.

"But Your Highness, the people in Xuzhou have many children. Although our Xuzhou has a population, no one has cultivated the fields!" Chen Deng looked at Liu Mang in embarrassment.

Liu Mang understood what Chen Deng meant. Since Liu Mang was in power, he has always encouraged childbirth. He gave birth to a son, how much reward he gave birth to a daughter, and more rewards were given to the people with land.

Because ordinary people still don’t have much impression of money, tell her that one gold and one thousand gold are both a lot of money in his opinion, and there is no concept of much. It can only be abstract.

But the fields are different. Only with fields can there be farming, and only with farming can there be food. With food, you can naturally live with a full meal.

For a family of three, five acres of fertile land are enough to eat. If it is ten acres of fertile land, it is enough to live a good life. It is okay to eat a little big fish and meat during festivals, or birthdays, etc.

Therefore, rewarding the fields is very intuitive.

There must be brave men under heavy rewards. The rewards from this field have stimulated many ordinary people. In addition, there were not many entertainment activities in ancient times. At night, the sky became dark and everyone was in a dark place. What should I do if there was no entertainment activities?

Create it!

A very simple activity is to create villains.

The medical conditions of the ancients were not good, so the fertility rate and survival rate were not high, but it could not withstand many people.

There are no condoms, no family planning or anything like that.

One is impossible every year, but one doll is still possible every year and a half.

Especially after the first child, the second and third child will be much smoother.

Suddenly, there were a lot of newborn populations in Xuzhou.

Logically speaking, this is a happy event, but something that made Chen Deng worry about. Those who gave birth to sons and daughters were more than ten acres of fertile land alone, plus some other things, such as women who need to cultivate after giving birth.

This dozen acres of fertile land is not enough for just one man, so these ordinary people have fertile land but no one cultivates it.

There is a serious shortage of labor. After all, those women nowadays have fewer things and more babies. They can get a few acres of fertile land. If you go to farm the land, how much will you earn in a year? One of the consequences is that the land is abandoned and the food reserves are almost insufficient.

A half-aged child is dying.

"Haha!" Liu Mang suddenly laughed as he heard Chen Deng's embarrassment, "Yuan Long! These children are the hope for our future in Yangzhou!"

Liu Mang could not have stopped these policies that encourage childbirth by listening to Chen Deng's words.

Because these policies belong to Liu Mang’s real national policy.

How many years have the great Han Dynasty been in chaos? The Yellow Turban Rebellion began at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, that is, before Emperor Ling of Han died.

The entire Han Dynasty's population suddenly increased from the original 40 million to 12 million, which is a few times smaller. If this war continues and comes again in troubled times, then in the end, the Han Dynasty can have a few million people, just laugh secretly.

Why are there five barbarians invading China? One of the very important reasons is that I am a big man, and all the strong people died in the battle. They died in the civil war. The rest are the elderly, weak, women and children. How can this resist the invasion of those foreign tribes?

So Liu Mang has always encouraged childbirth. No matter how she is, as long as you can give birth to you, you will be a good person.

Liu Mang also specially met a farmer's house in Yangzhou. Their wife was a lucky star. She gave birth to four children in one child, which is rare. In modern times, it would be difficult to give birth, but this mother is not the first child, so the danger is greatly reduced. In addition, with the old miracle doctors such as Hua Tuo and Zhang Ji, she quickly became safe.

He gave birth to quadruplets, two men and two women. Liu Mang was happy and even awarded the title, which is a typical example in Yangzhou.

Only with a larger population can we continue to compete in future survival.

Xuzhou is a little difficult now, but if you wait for ten or eight years, and wait for more than ten years, then Xuzhou's population will inevitably double. Young and middle-aged people will make Xuzhou exude vitality, rather than the deadly aura of excessive elderly people with negative population growth.

"Yes! Deng has been taught!" Chen Deng also nodded. The image of the great man has long been popular. Chen Deng also knew the impression of the population of this war, so this major strategy for giving birth must not be changed easily.

"As for the food and grass problems you mentioned in Yuanlong, it can naturally be solved!" Liu Mang said with a smile. Xu Shu once raised such a question when he was in Yangzhou.

There are two solutions given by Liu Mang!

The first one is to grow sweet potatoes. This thing is high in yield and easy to survive. However, the starch of this thing is high, and the body is more harmful to long-term use, so Liu Mang can only treat it as an emergency.

Another one is to buy it. Where can I buy it? There are only places like Jingzhou and Yizhou, and there are also places like Lao Cao in Yanzhou, but Lao Cao is not easy to live there. After all, after so many years of accounting, a lot of land has been abandoned.

Liu Mang couldn't let the Han people here eat enough, so let the Han people on Lao Cao go hungry.

The great man was born from the same roots, right?

Then the remaining place is going to sea. Liu Mang had known for a long time that there were good fertile land overseas and also good food and grass supply, so Liu Mang added a condition to all the ships that came back.

That is to bring food back.

As long as everything goes well in the sea, you will definitely make a lot of money. However, you cannot let the merchant be rich alone. Even if you are rich alone, you can only compete with the country. Only by making the country rich can you be truly a member of the heavenly kingdom.

So the taxes for returning from going to sea are naturally not low. Now, after Liu Mang goes to sea, I will exempt you from taxes for a ship of food and grass. Even those foods I don’t want you for nothing. I will buy them for you at the price of the world so that you won’t suffer any losses.

"Here, come! They are here!" Suddenly, an excited voice broke out from the port over there.
Chapter completed!
