Chapter 982 The enemy of the extra virus may not be a friend, but may also be disinfectant

Strictly speaking, the last time Li Su left Luoyang was in the winter of 206. After leaving Luoyang, he went to Kuaiji to linger for several months, and then embarked on a journey to travel east to Fusang, with a total of three years of re-election and a road.

However, in fact, during that period in 206, Li Su also spent most of his time in Bianliang, Chenliu County, to "preserve filial piety" for his father-in-law Cai Yong. During the whole year, he came to Luoyang to meet with Liu Bei to discuss state affairs. In total, there were only two months. Many places in Luoyang City did not arrive, especially Luoyang New City, which was far away from the political center.

That place is equivalent to the later Xiongan New Area in the capital. Many people who work in the capital may not go to Xiongan for a few years.

Therefore, Li Su is actually very unfamiliar with Luoyang's urban appearance and urban construction situation. Many of his cognitions are stuck before 204, that is, the world has just been pacified for the past two years.

These six years were the six years of the imperial court recuperation and allowed the economy to develop freely, and also the six years of paying off its national debt. Of course, the changes in Luoyang were very huge, which was enough to shock those who were mentally prepared like Li Su.

Especially when Li Su returned to Beijing this time, he was at the Heluo Ferry between Mengjin and Chenggao, and transferred from the Yellow River waterway to the Luo River. Instead of following the Hulao Pass on the south side of the land that was directly taken in 206 to save trouble.

The biggest difference between walking on Hulao Pass and going to Heluo Water Road is that the land route of Hulao Pass is a military pass, not passing through the new district of Luoyang, while the water route must pass through the most prosperous block of economy, trade, industry and commerce in the new district.

I haven't seen it for many years, the embankments on both sides of the estuary of the Luo River have been tightly protected, and water trucks are everywhere. The water of the Luo River has even been divided into large numbers of channels and flows into branched branches to maximize the use of every part of the water energy impacted by the river to drive various water truck workshops.

Countless huge reservoirs have been dug up on both sides of the Luo River, which can not only store industrial water, but also adjust the water level and flow rate to ensure the flow rate in the abundant and dry seasons. The impact gap should be as gentle as possible, and peaks should be scattered to store valleys.

Of course, these complex projects will also bring a lot of trouble, such as the requirements for the banks of the Luo River have been greatly improved, and the difficulty of flood prevention has also increased. Once the water level rises, the number of hidden dangers that break the dam will also increase.

Fortunately, the people are very willing to invest. When Li Su passed by the boat, he saw that both sides of the lower reaches of Luoshui had built stone-like embankments, and used three-dimensional adhesives, and some places were made of Roman cement caulking.

This work was at least the process of building seawalls in the south since the Song Dynasty. It was only in Qiantang River and Huating County at the estuary of the Yangtze River.

It is only 210 years since Li Su saw such a water conservancy embankment in Luoyang, the capital of the Han Dynasty, and he couldn't help but feel like traveling through time.

With Li Su and Zhuge Liang accelerating the technology of the times, the Han Dynasty had the productivity of water conservancy technology in the Song and Ming dynasties. This is not surprising in itself. Li Su was surprised that the court could actually pay so much money. After all, the court has been paying back the national debts owed during the War of Unification over the years.

The elevated stone water diversion channel that was expected to cost 5 billion yuan in Luoyang City was not repaired, but the water conservancy embankment of the Luo River was directly repaired into stone first?

When Li Su passed by the boat, he couldn't help but stop and sent someone to inquire about the situation and understand the people's situation.

However, he did not have the chance to be hidden for long. After all, the Prime Minister returned to Beijing, and many local officials would receive and see him off all the way. Li Su asked a casual question, and within a few minutes, the Henan Yin came to report it.

The position of Henan Yin has been changed in recent years, basically as short as two or three years, and the term of office is no more than five years.

After all, this is a need to balance the interests of all parties. When Liu Bei was just unified, he must not leave it to the elderly who once served as a low-ranking official in the Liu Xie court and later surrendered to Liu Bei to prepare for merits.

It was not until in recent years that the world had been completely stable and recuperated for a long time. When Liu Xie, the elderly who had served as officials in the court, retired and retired, Liu Bei replaced all local officials in the Sili area with old officials from Guanzhong, Yizhou, and Jingzhou.

The Henan Yin of this position was Yang Hong from Yizhou, who was nearly 40 years old this year. In history, he would have to be the prefect of Shu County after another ten years, until he was about fifty years old.

Now he has made great achievements in advance. He became the Yin of Henan the second year after Li Su set sail to the east, so Li Su didn't know that when Yang Hong came to greet him, Li Su was surprised.

Who made Yang Hong stand in the right team in this life? At that time, he was the first to support Li Su and Liu Ba's reforms in the local administrative official system. Now, of course he is worthy of being Henan Yin.

Yang Hong is just a microcosm, and it can be seen from it how many benefits the officials of Yizhou support Han have gained in this life.

As the base where the emperor started his career, as long as the officials there had a wink and were a little more reliable in their work, they could eventually go out to Sichuan to become high-ranking officials.

At this moment, facing the Prime Minister's inquiry, Yang Hong was of course very answering, reporting all the situation and political achievements of Henan Yin in recent years.

Regarding the water conservancy and infrastructure issues that the prime minister is most concerned about, Yang Hong explained: "These embankments and other water conservancy facilities did not cost the imperial court's money and food.

All of this is because Luoyang New City has developed rapidly in recent years and has huge demand. In order to better utilize water energy, private factory owners spontaneously raise funds to build.

Later, His Majesty was kind and asked the Ministry of Works to verify and after it was built into Shitang, it would also have certain benefits for the imperial court's grain transportation, so the imperial court took the initiative to subsidize 30% of the wages."

Generally, in water conservancy projects, the allocation of benefits of irrigation, shipping and water energy is a ratio of 532. Liu Bei's court had experience in this area. At that time, in Yizhou, the investment ratio was the same as the investment ratio.

However, because the area around Luoyang is the national confidant center, the proportion of primary industries will definitely be lower. Local agricultural production is not very important, mainly for growing vegetables, and grain depends entirely on external transportation.

Therefore, the benefits of building river water conservancy are mainly due to the benefits of shipping and industry and commerce, and agricultural irrigation must be finalized.

However, the Heluo Water Transportation is not all official water transport of the court, but also private business transport, which is beneficial to everyone. With this conversion, the court has already achieved a lot of 30% of the burden.

Under Yang Hong's tour guide, Li Su visited Luoshui all the way and found that the hydraulic weaving iron, wood processing, stone cutting and chiseling industries here have developed to the peak of the current Han Dynasty. There are thousands of workshops in total.

Obviously, it is because Luoyang has been continuously engaged in infrastructure construction in recent years, and demand has been driven very strongly, so private industrial and commercial investment has also formed a multiplier effect, and investment is getting bigger and bigger.

This scene made Li Su feel a bit time traveling, and seemed to recall the scene he saw on TV more than 20 years ago that he had traveled through time on time, "Hundreds of thousands of migrant workers, thousands of tower cranes, and tens of thousands of excavators in the city of XXX New District."

It was nothing more than the excavator tower crane of later generations, and it became a hydraulic processing workshop for wood, stone, and steel.

It was also about construction. When Emperor Ling of Han first used eunuchs, he valued eunuchs, deceived his superiors and concealed his subordinates, and exploited them from both ends, causing the people of the world to be poor and rich.

The wood, stone and eunuchs transported from all over the country all had to make a big move on quality ratings, which was the same as the routine of seizing big wood, making flower stone stalks, and exploiting charcoal men in the past dynasties. They also nitpick the quality of things that are as good as bad, making people unable to pay, and then they lowered the price to less than 10% of them, and finally used these materials in the project.

In contrast, Liu Bei's construction work, on the one hand, controlled the desire to plunder the court, insisted on enforcing the law impartially, and created an open-minded investment environment that did not kill fat sheep. It successfully relied on the confidence of the people at the beginning of the rejuvenation and naturally led the development of the entire Henan Yin. It has to be said that it is a sharp contrast.

Seeing all this, even though Li Su himself was the planner and promoter of the original motivation, he was still moved in his heart.

He has read a lot of books in later generations. Many poor people's hatred for the so-called "strong and powerful scholars and officials in ancient times" has reached a point of being a bit perverted, so even the eunuchs began to wash away, as if "the enemy's enemy is a friend", "In real life, we are unhappy with the second generation of capitalists, Tianlong people, X, and so we look forward to a dog biting something to come out to criticize those people."

But only a mature politician like Li Su who is in a high position knows that bad people should be opposed, but they cannot uphold the three views of "the one who fights bad people is a good person" at any time. Both sides of a dog bite are dogs, and the dog that wins may be just more vicious and cruel.

Bai Juyi's "The Charcoal Seller" and Liu Zongyuan's "The Snake Catcher" are not fake, right? The eunuch city in Xiyuan, palace city, and flower and stone gang have indeed helped the imperial court to bypass the aristocratic families and scholars to collect and dispatch resources.

But most of the waste is definitely a waste, and more than half of the greed is taken. In the end, 20% of the money is really the most important thing to do if you enter the treasury.

The late Ming Dynasty was the historical period when the poor people in later generations became the most serious hatred of scholars and scholars. Many people fantasized about the fact that the eunuch party tax supervision and mining supervision were good people, but this was obviously an overcorrection.

Those eunuchs can indeed collect some taxes to alleviate the finances, but the money to enter the treasury is definitely far less than that to enter the pockets of eunuchs and eunuchs at all levels.

So, how can you expect this kind of thing? If this is OK, it would be equivalent to some believers of madmen who are tortured by the virus and go to drink disinfectant water to fight against poison? Disinfection water is definitely a satisfactory logic of "the enemy is a friend", but it is obvious whether they will die after drinking it.

In contrast, Liu Bei was one of the powerful forces who knew the sufferings of the lower class of the people best. Since he really felt that "facing the virtuous ministers and staying away from the villain" was prosperous, and "facing the villain and staying away from the virtuous ministers" was the reason for decline, it was naturally reasonable.

This shows that Liu Bei really knew that even if there were local constraints and financial difficulties, he still could not expect eunuchs to do business.

For eight years, Liu Bei did not let the eunuchs rise again while enjoying himself, but relied solely on the military prestige that had just been unified to form a powerful centralized government.

It is also a perfect match to do things without relying on those messy tricks. Turning infrastructure construction from a waste of money to a positive snowball cycle that promotes economic development is also a great merit.

Zhuge Liang in this life obviously had no chance to write the famous work of "The Memorial of the Emperor of the Emperor". It was useless. Li Su originally thought that many famous sayings and aphorisms in the Emperor of the Emperor of the Emperor would be lost. Unexpectedly, this time he returned to Luoyang, he realized many similar principles during his personal inspection.

On the last day before returning to the old city of Luoyang, Li Su, accompanied by Yang Hong, took a little detour and first went to see the Capital Gongyuan rebuilt on the Biguiyuan site in the south of the city.

This tribute courtyard was planned by Li Su ten years ago, and the examination room was built in a hurry at that time, but other attached entertainment facilities and rest places were built one after another for many years. Until Li Su crossed the east more than three years ago, some facilities were still not completed.

When I came back this time, I saw the ultimate perfect appearance, and the surrounding area became gradually prosperous. It was clearly outside the city, but there were still large areas of prosperous blocks, which were even more prosperous than the Jiangnan Gongyuan of the Ming Dynasty and the entire Qinhuai River Scenic Area in the Ming Dynasty.

As for the time being, Rome, 20,000 miles away from the West, will only welcome the ascension of Emperor Caracala next year. In history, Caracala will build the Caracala Bathroom after the 211th throne ceremony. Li Su has firmly won the complete body of this wonder first.

When Li Su passed by the couture, he also noticed that many candidates came here to prepare for the exam this year, and they were all candidates from all counties across the country, and were students.

Li Su was surprised at first because this year is not the year of the National Science and Technology Competition, at least several heavyweight subjects such as Maocaike should not be selected this year, and there are not so many candidates.

The imperial examination was the first year of Zhangwu, and it was first opened in 196. This year, 210 years is the fifteenth year of Zhangwu, and it should be the sixth round of the three-year competition next year.

Li Su couldn't help but ask Yang Hong if the competition for juren is so fierce now that it is not the year of the big exam that people come to review nearby in advance.

Yang Hong then told him that this is the Encade course that will be held this year, and the additional general courses will be selected, so so many scholars have reviewed and prepared for the exam throughout the year. The reason for the examination is the fiftieth birthday of Emperor Liu Bei. Liu Bei was 24 years old when he started his army in 184, and this year he was 210, which is exactly the fiftieth birthday.

No wonder this is the case. There are so many construction projects in the old city of Luoyang along the way, and it turns out to be a gift to the emperor's fiftieth birthday.

However, the more this happens, the more Li Su felt that the construction of the Han Dynasty did not bring about the troubles and the public was resentful, and the more it became clear that the centralized military power suppression of local areas was much better than relying on eunuchs and relatives.

Of course, only the monarch who immediately won the world can do this without any scruples. The monarchs in later generations' control over the army and concerns about warlords will definitely restrict the space for such operations, and there is nothing we can do about it.

The period of rule of the founding country/Zhongxing monarch is very precious! This is a golden period of development where you don’t have to worry about warlords or self-limit your martial arts!

"Friendship with wise ministers and far away from villains, this was the reason why the Han Dynasty prospered, and the Han Dynasty was the reason why the Han Dynasty was in decline after that. Whenever His Majesty talked about this with someone, he sighed and hated Huan Ling.

It was also a land of construction in this Heluo area. When Emperor Ling was in the world, the world was full of complaints. Now, industry and commerce spontaneously built rivers to benefit the people and expand production. The quality of the group was self-evident. Therefore, eunuchs and relatives could not rely on them!

It is probably not enough for Your Majesty to do all this himself. If you can establish a new ancestral teaching, it will be considered complete."

As for governing local governments and preventing local governments from destroying centralization in the future, this depends on other solutions, which is another issue. Li Su will of course provide other institutional designs.

In fact, the current industrial and commercial tax part, except for the customs tax, all belong to the state, are all subject to the state. This is a good start, which can ensure that the finance and taxation of industry and commerce are a game of the whole country, and local governments can only call in physical taxes for tariffs and grain.

As long as the industrial access/monopoly tax designed by Li Su for Liu Bei is always collected by the central government, the local government's own tendency to separatist government can more or less suppress it, and there is no need to rely on foreign relatives and eunuchs to grab money.

"What the Prime Minister said is to take every word of golden rules and construe the principle of being close to the virtuous and staying away from the slander so thoroughly." Yang Hong heard Li Su's feelings next to him, and he had to flatter him and write down the quotes.

Li Su didn't want to bother with A Liang. Anyway, he used things that would not appear any longer, and he was not bad at all.
Chapter completed!
