Chapter 1547: There is a Tiger in the Heart


"The population of the country is 23 million, and this is still the official statistics of the country of the country, but in fact, the country of the country of the state of the day of the country According to our analysis and statistics, the real population of the country is at least 40 million, which is still a conservative estimate, and if you make a bold estimate, 50 million is possible. ” The commander of the Jinyi Guard, Ke Xiongfa, reported to the emperor and the prime ministers, scholars and marshals at the imperial meeting.

The king of the Ring of Japan drowned, and the kingdom was in turmoil, and now the imperial court is under the banner of supporting the queen to quell the rebellion, and summoned five vassal states to send 70,000 troops to intervene in the civil strife of the Ring of Japan.

The two fleets and two marine divisions of the imperial court, as well as the militias of Xindu, Bengal and other places, were also gearing up and eager to try.

For Dahua's monarchs, what attracts Dahua the most about credibility The first is the population, and the second is the land.

The population of Xindu is quite large, and the northern country of the Ring Sun alone has a population of tens of millions.

Thanks to the fertile plains, the Ganges Valley has a large population, which makes Zhang Chao blush.

Dahua has been fighting in the east and west over the years, and has gained a large population, but it has destroyed countless countries.

Destroy Tuguhun, destroy the Turks, destroy Xue Yantuo, destroy Goguryeo, destroy Khitan, destroy Xi, destroy Silla, Baekje, Linyi, destroy Ryu, and so on.

But after destroying so many countries, the population gained is not as large as the population of this country of abstinence.

What's more, the Ganges River basin is the most fertile land of faith.

A Indochina Peninsula and a South Asian subcontinent have become the strategic core of Dahua in the next 100 years.

"Fifty million people, damn it, these people can really give birth, isn't it said that the population is more than at the beginning of Zhenguan," said Su Dingfang, commander-in-chief of the army, who had recently asked to be released as governor.

Anyway, he is willing to be the governor of any place, but the emperor has not yet answered this matter.

As a matter of fact, the implementation of the provinces and provinces has not yet been finally implemented.

Thirty-six provinces, eighty-one provinces, and hundreds of prefectures and thousands of counties, this adjustment is unbelievable.

This thing must be fully prepared before it can be moved.

And at that time, we will promote the reform of zoning one by one, rather than all at once.

"There are many religious believers in the country of the Ring of Japan, and the power of these religions is also strong, and those temples have fiefs like the princes, which is similar to when Buddhism flourished in the Northern and Southern Dynasties in the past.

Back then, there were thousands of Buddhist temples in the capital of the Southern Dynasties, and in the Northern Zhou Dynasty in the north, one-third of the population was in the monasteries, hundreds of thousands of monks and nuns, and more people were cultivated by the Buddhist temples, becoming hidden households outside the household registration. ” Fang Xuanling is a little surprised by these things, the power of religion is powerful, and once it is formed, it will become a huge interest group.

At that time, Zhenguan reform, the new policy was able to persist at the beginning, a big reason is that the imperial court first started to Buddhism, and one rectified Buddhism, so that the imperial court gained the population and wealth of countless people.

Wuzong of the Northern Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Buddha, and also relied on the population and wealth obtained by destroying the Buddha, and had the strength to destroy the Northern Qi in one fell swoop.

The biggest religion in the country is Hinduism, and then Buddhism is also popular, and the two major religions are extremely powerful, and there are Buddhist temples everywhere in the country, not to mention, these Buddhist temples also have great power.

Their temple property is even like the fiefdom of the princes, and they have the vast majority of the power of the fiefdom.

They are both wealthy and powerful, and countless people cultivate and produce for them.

If any king of Xindu has the courage to destroy Buddhism and religion, and can really get rich immediately and increase his strength, of course, it is also necessary to convince his subordinates to destroy Buddhism and religion with him, and to worship Buddhism and religion too much with Xindu people, which king dares to do this, it is estimated that he will be killed by his subordinates first.

Of course, Dahua does not have such a problem.

Dahua used to be a colony, relying on a knife and a gun in one hand and a sutra in the other, whether it is Buddhism or Hinduism, it is Dahua who wants to knock down and stomp on a few feet and spit a few spits, and then let them never turn over.

Over the years, the feudal princes of Xindu have done such things.

First confiscate those temples, those golden bodies and bronze statues, smash and melt.

The monastery was converted into a manor and distributed to the knights below, who received the tenants and slaves in the temple, divided the fields and rented them for farming, and then collected the rent.

Relying on this alone, the marquis made a lot of money and had the capital to gain a foothold in credibility.

Under the general trend of the Dahua princes exterminating religion and promoting Confucianism, now in the Xindu River valley and the Xindu territory of Dahua, there is not even a single Buddhist temple to be seen, and not a single Buddhist can be seen by a single Xindu believer.

In the Central Plains, the imperial court still has a little face, what Buddha and Taoism, there is still a little bit left.

It's just that the management is very strict, and there are many restrictions on applying for monks or something.

The number of Buddhist temples and Taoist temples and the number of Buddhist disciples and Taoists are strictly regulated, but in Xindu, no one cares about this.

Directly is to destroy, to destroy completely.

Buddhist temples were destroyed and replaced by new temples of literature and Chinese language schools.

"If we can get these 50 million people, then we really don't have to worry about the shortage of labor."

Prime Minister Ma Zhou also sighed.

The imperial court also has many state-owned workshops, such as ordnance workshops, such as shipbuilding workshops, as well as many mining and metallurgy, coal mines, iron mines, etc., which are labor-intensive industries, not to mention, there are several large-scale road and bridge building enterprises in the imperial court.

In addition, there are many large state-owned farms in the frontier.

Building roads, laying bridges, digging rivers, building cities, transporting, post stations, couriers, post offices, etc., the Dahua court now had many of these state-owned enterprises, which were responsible for the very affairs that had relied on the conscription of the common people in the past.

In the past, all of them had to rely on the conscription of local people to undertake labor, but now, the imperial court has fixed the Ding tax and apportioned it into the mu, and the people only need to pay the tax.

In the past, these enterprises of the imperial court are now responsible for those labor, and some projects will be contracted to the private sector.

This model is actually somewhat similar to the box army of the Northern Song Dynasty in history.

The Xiang army of the Northern Song Dynasty, also known as conscription, basically did not undertake the task of fighting and defending, and their main task was to do service, and if there was any force in the local area, they were called to do it.

There are many specialized enterprises set up by Dahua, and there are large groups of workers, mainly barbarians of various ethnic groups, etc., and there are also many technicians from Dahua College.

There are enterprises specializing in road construction, enterprises specializing in bridge repair, enterprises specializing in building cities, enterprises specializing in digging rivers and dredging canals, and enterprises specializing in transportation.

Professional things are done by professional people, and companies also have more professional equipment, which is far more efficient than before.

They undertake a variety of official projects, account for them separately, and are self-financed.

The imperial court set up projects and drew budgets, and these companies undertook projects and relied on high-quality services to make profits.

These large and small state-owned enterprises, because of their technological advantages, have made very considerable profits.

The imperial court and local governments are also willing to give them projects to do, firstly, they are all official, and secondly, they have good technology, high efficiency and low cost.

Because of these advantages, these enterprises have high returns and good benefits.

Not to mention that the craftsmen who are as precious as gold are treated very well, and their annual income is extremely high, even the barbarian workers in various companies also have a very good income, and even these barbarians have a little fluttering feeling.

The signboard of the state workers makes their current small life very comfortable, and even many barbarians have long been disvious of those Han people who can get fields and land.

What about dividing the land and granting the land, now just by farming, even if the agricultural products have price protection, they can't make any money, of course, there is no problem with food and clothing, but it is not so easy to live comfortably.

And these workers in state-owned enterprises, one person's salary can support a large family, and even learn some skills, and then the salary can be increased, and the treatment is much more comfortable than those Han people who run a farm by themselves.

Especially now that there is a shortage of people, these workers are better treated.

The imperial court now invests a lot of budget in infrastructure construction every year, building roads and digging rivers everywhere, building new cities and building new buildings, building ports and wharves, building river embankments, burning bricks and tiles, producing cement and lime, digging coal and coking, smelting iron and steel, and even water and land transportation.

Now even the chiefs of Africa have been affected.

The chiefs of the tribes, now dancing and singing happily, began to take bows, arrows, knives and guns, and busily attacked other tribes all day long, and captured the people of the next tribe to trade with the new Han neighbors, and exchanged the black compatriots for the same Han goods.

The Arabs and Rome were at war, and the captives of both countries were basically loaded onto ships in the Mediterranean and finally transported to the concession ports of Dahua.

Many of the money Dahua earns in foreign trade every year have finally become boats of black uncles, big white brothers, and sexy orchids of beautiful black chicks, which are shipped back to all parts of the Central Plains.

The imperial court needed a lot of people, and so did the princes.

Anyway, in the context of Dahua's great expansion, people are needed everywhere.

The workshops and mines of the Central Plains, those manors, as well as the farms and mines of the princes' territories, and even the plantations and mines of the colonies, there was a shortage of people.

The population of Dahua is indeed quite large, but at the insistence of the emperor, tens of millions of Han people basically divided their land and became homesteaders.

Most of these people are self-sufficient, and only a few young Han Chinese men and women come out to work.

There was no serious shortage of land, and there were no large number of landless peasants, so that Dahua's industrial and commercial development today mainly relied on those conquered aliens and slaves who were bought and sold.

"When will the Tubo and other five-nation coalition forces be able to join the battlefield, I can't wait for the water of this ring day to be muddy a little bit," Su Dingfang pinched his chin and said. t1706231537:
