Become a feudal king from today - #888 - Chapter 902 Dilemma
“Zhou Xiaoer, you are the only son in the family. Do your best and respect your parents. ReadМ” When Zhao Xu went out, he patted Zhou Xiaoer on the shoulder.
Zhou Xiaoer was completely stunned.
He forgot to pick up his work badge when he went to the weaving workshop today.
I didn’t expect to see this formation when I came back.
He thought something had happened at home and someone was causing trouble for his mother.
Just when he was about to fight, unexpectedly, King Yan came to his house to check on the people.
“Hey.” Zhou Xiaoer replied blankly.
Zhao Xu smiled, walked out of the alley with the guards, and then went to other private houses.
“King Yan is such an easy-going person. Having him guard Dasong is really a blessing for Dasong people.” Mrs. Zhou looked at the alley, still recalling the time she had just chatted with King Yan.
This is enough for him to brag to his neighbors for a lifetime.
Hearing this, Zhou Xiaoer touched his shoulder and giggled again.
Leave from Zhou Xiaoer’s house.
Zhao Xu randomly picked a village and rode away with Xu Lie and others.
There is no doubt that the living conditions of the people who have lived in Yancheng have improved.
Whether in ancient times or modern times, resources are first concentrated in cities.
This is a natural law, and even Zhao Xu cannot avoid it.
But even so, he did not want to leave behind the villagers, who accounted for the largest number of people in Dasong.
On the road to prosperity and strength, no one can be missing.
To solve this problem, we ultimately rely on development and technological progress.
“Your Highness, this is Machang Village.” After traveling westward for twenty miles, Zhao Xu and Xu Lie arrived at a village.
There are only one hundred households in this village.
Since everyone in the village was familiar with each other, the appearance of a group of strangers naturally alarmed Rizheng and the security chief.
But Li Zheng and Baochang obviously knew Zhao Xu.
Startled, they immediately came forward.
After chatting for a while, Zhao Xu stated that he was here to check on the public sentiment.
So Li Zheng and Baochang were asked to follow each of their families to get to know the villagers.
To prevent them from secretly greeting other villagers and covering up some problems.
However, he seemed to be thinking a little too much.
Both Li Zheng and Baochang seem to be open and honest.
“Whose family is this? They are living a good life and they even built a big red tile house.” Zhao Xu said with a smile. He noticed it as soon as he entered the village.
Sun Dongxu, Li Zheng, was smiling all over his face, “This is Wangqiao, the home of Brother Wang En. They have five siblings. They used to be the poorest family in the village, but now they are the most elegant in the village.”
“Wang Qiao?” Zhao Xu couldn’t help but smile.
He heard this name from Qin Shan. Both brothers were willing to fight with their lives.
Knowing this, he understood.
The military pay for being a soldier was generous, and during this period, they received a lot of spoils as dividends.
It is reasonable to build a lavish brick house with red tiles.
Moreover, he was also happy to see the soldiers’ families prospering.
Otherwise, how can we stand up to them who are fighting on the front line?
But now the door of Wangqiao’s house was closed, so he went to the next house.
Li was explaining.
Wang Qiao’s parents went to visit their daughter who was married to the city.
“Whose house is this? The red tile house is also very elegant.” Less than ten meters away from Wang Qiao’s house is another newly built red tile house.
Like the Wangqiao family, there is a fenced-in vegetable garden in front of the red-tiled house.
There is a row of red-tiled houses in the front of the yard, and two red-tiled wing rooms on the east and west sides. The yard is paved with cement floors.
“Back to Your Highness, this is Fang Yulong’s house.” Li Zheng said, “The houses built by Wang Qiao’s family and his family are all in line with the government’s plan, and the styles are also based on the plans given by the government.”
Zhao Xu smiled with satisfaction.
This was his request to Liu Fu.
Whether it is construction in the village or construction in the city, there must be planning.
Houses cannot be built arbitrarily, one on this side and one on that side.
This is not aesthetically pleasing and will also affect other facilities entering the village in the future.
Therefore, he personally drew the plan and ordered the government to implement it.
In his plan, spacious and main roads should be reserved in the village.
Houses are built along the road, horizontally and vertically, leaving at least ten meters between houses.
As for the house, a fenced vegetable garden must be left in front, and a pig house, chicken coop, etc. should be built next to the vegetable garden.
Each household is responsible for the sanitation around their own home.
In this way, the whole village is built in this way, and it looks neat, clean and beautiful.
However, given the current level of development of Dasong.
The common people can only build houses with red tiles.
But as Dasong becomes richer and richer, in the future these red-tiled houses will be demolished and small villas will be built.
“This Fang Yulong is amazing and very courageous. This year he borrowed money from the bank and purchased a dye patent. He then became rich and bought a house in Yancheng. The house here belongs to his parents and younger brother. My sister lives there.” Li Zhengdao.
Zhao Xu walked in with everyone.
In the yard, an old man and an old woman were chopping firewood.
Li Zheng immediately introduced Zhao Xu’s identity to the two of them.
The two of them were immediately surprised and hurriedly gave up their seats to Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu looked around and found that Fang Yulong’s family was indeed very wealthy.
There are many things to buy at home, including porcelain, mahogany tables and chairs, etc.
There are also some calligraphy and paintings hanging in the room.
“Yu Niu and Yu Shu both went to Gongshu to study. Yulong said that he has passed the age to study and can no longer let his younger brother and sister miss it.” Knowing the purpose of Zhao Xu’s coming, Fang Yulong’s father and mother introduced their family’s situation, with full expressions on their faces. pride.
Zhao Xu nodded frequently, this is a microcosm of the current development of Yanzhou.
Some people have won honors and money by serving as soldiers.
Some people have become rich overnight by taking advantage of the business trend.
The appearance of Gongshu caused families with enough money to send their children to study.
Although during this period, Jiangnan was raging with war.
But Jiangbei is changing rapidly.
After chatting with the two for a while, Zhao Xu went to other people’s homes.
Currently, half of the 100 households in the village have built houses with red tiles, and the remaining half still live in thatched houses.
Some of these people’s families are soldiers, some have passed the official examination and become officials, and most of them have a farm at home and go to work in the city’s workshops.
As for the rest, there are many reasons.
But the most important thing is that Yancheng can’t find a job, and he can’t run a business, so he can only rely on his family’s thin fields.
Although, their lives have also been greatly improved, and they have no worries about food and clothing.
But compared to others, it was pulled down a lot.
And this is the real situation that Zhao Xu wants to know when he goes to the countryside this time.
“If you want to solve this problem, you have to create more jobs.” Zhao Xu said that this problem will be solved through the natural development of industry.
However, even contemporary times have only solved part of it, not all of it.
He believes that if we want to prevent the countryside from falling into the cycle of history, we must allow farmers to become rich just by farming.
To achieve this goal, the small peasant economy must be destroyed and small and medium-sized farms based on family units must be spawned.
Realize the transformation from farmers to agricultural businessmen.
Now, Dasong has a population of only 80 million. It can be said that there are many people and a large area. This is no problem at all.
The only problem is that with so many fields, manpower alone is not enough and requires mechanized production.
Therefore, he needs machinery powered by internal combustion engines.
In this way, this blueprint is not far away.
