Chapter 1652 The Renzi scroll is nothing more than that.

Chapter 1652 The Renzi scroll is nothing more than that.

During the time waiting for Xue Biao to come back, Feng Ziying also talked with Bao Qin about the management strategy of Xue's fleet.

According to Feng Ziying's suggestion, southern port terminals have already been developed and mature, and it is not so easy to intervene in the development. These out-of-the-way places are much easier. Whether it is buying land for construction or developing shipping, there is a lot to do.

A new opportunity provided by Feng Ziying to Xue's shipping plan is Dongfan.

With the increasing development of Dongfan, especially the west coast saltworks began to enter the income stage, the expansion strategy of the Anfu Chamber of Commerce at both ends of the north and south has achieved good results in absorbing the development of settlements.

According to the data mentioned by the Anfu businessman representative in his conversation with Feng Ziying, last year alone, 940 households moved from Fujian and Jiangxi, and a total of more than 480 people moved into Dongfan. It is a sharp increase, and the scope of emigration has expanded to Shandong and Nanzhi. As of July, [-] households have been emigrated, with a total of more than [-] people.

Moreover, with the severe drought in the north becoming more and more obvious, the emigration strategy organized by Anfu merchants is very popular in Shandong, Beizhi, Shanxi, and Shaanxi. In order to prevent the refugees from forming a mass uprising, the governments of all places are very supportive of Anfu merchants. They are even encouraged to move village by village directly to areas that have lost their crops due to drought.

They predict that in the second half of the year, the number of resettlers targeting Northland may exceed 4000 households, or 3 people. If the scheduled resettlement in Fujian and Jiangxi is included, the previously unimaginable [-] households may be realized in the second half of the year. , [-] people, plus the results of the first half of the year, may approach [-] people, which will triple compared to last year.

The relocation and reclamation brought about a huge consumption of materials and a large increase in the demand for fleet capacity. Cement, ironware, cloth, grain, and medicinal materials have all become urgently needed materials in the East. Xue Biao is currently considering that it is difficult to transport food for a while. To spare his energy, he is already thinking about cooperating with Anfu businessman Haosheng from next year to form a perfect transportation triangle route.

People from Shandong and Beizhi moved democrats or cement and iron materials to Dongfan, and then transported salt and timber from Dongfan to Fujian and Zhejiang, or Nanzhi or even Guangdong, and then transported grain from Nanzhi, Fujian and Zhejiang, and Guangdong to the north, so that The full load of the entire transport route can be perfectly achieved.

Feng Ziying doesn't know the exact number of the current population of Dazhou, but according to the calculations of the Dazhou Household Department, the population is about 1.2 million, of which the population of Beidi only accounts for less than 500%, that is to say, it is about 4000 The population of Jiangnan is between 6000 million and 3000 million, and the population of Jiangnan should account for nearly half, that is, less than [-] million. The population of Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangdong, Guangxi, Southwest and Lingnan combined is about [-] million.

Of course, this is just paper data. The level of grassroots governance in Dazhou is similar to that of the previous Ming Dynasty, and the number of hermits and refugees is huge. Feng Ziying made a rough estimate when she was the magistrate of Yongping Prefecture. It controls about 3000% of the population, that is to say, there are at least [-] million people who have not been counted by the government. This number is huge.

That is to say, the population of the entire Zhou Dynasty to the Yonglong period should actually be 1.5 million to 1.6 million. With such a huge population, it seems insignificant to gather hundreds of thousands of refugees at every turn, like setting up a governor of Yunyang to deal with it. The refugees in the mountainous areas between Shaanxi, Huguang, and Sichuan have no choice but to do so. When a mountainous area can gather millions of refugees, and it may even turn into a rebellion of millions of people, no dynasty dares to slack off.

This is why Yang He quickly formed the Jingxiang Army after serving as the governor of Yunyang, and he was able to easily form a strong Jingxiang Army with tens of thousands of people. The transfer of tens of thousands of young and strong men can at least reduce the pressure of the refugee rebellion in the Yunyang mountain area.

"Brother Tiao, it's rare for you to come back. I should have a good drink with you, but your sister doesn't allow it, so I can only replace wine with tea today, but if I want to, I have a lot to say during this banquet." , so just have fun." Feng Ziying picked up the tea cup and touched Xue Biao's wine glass.

"Oh?" Xue Biao glanced at his sister suspiciously, but saw her cheeks were flushed, her brows were tender and tender, and she immediately understood, "Hehe, it's a big deal, I hope I can be an uncle soon .”

"Well, don't worry, I will definitely be ahead of you in this action. Have you ever chosen a time with Fang?" The marriage with Fang Youdu's sister has been finalized long ago, but the exact time has not been determined, but basically it is Choose next year.

"I'm going to discuss this matter with my elder brother. I'm afraid I'll be busy this year until next year. I'm afraid the marriage will be a bit of a drag, and I'm afraid the Fang family will complain..." Xue Biao said in a deep voice, "I plan to go to the house tomorrow. See brother Youdu, so we can discuss it with him."

Feng Ziying also felt that this was a matter, and she had a premonition that this winter and next spring must be a difficult year. Xue Biao was in charge of the entire shipping system, and it was hard to get on the right track. A little disregarding the overall situation. Of course, the outside world may not be aware of this, but Fang Youdu, Feng Ziying felt that it was still necessary to talk about it for understanding.

"Forget it, I'll go to Uncle Fang with you tomorrow. I may not have seen him for a long time. He is obsessed with reviewing the case files in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and he really doesn't want to leave." Feng Ziying laughed.

"Then it couldn't be better." Xue Biao was overjoyed. He still attached great importance to this marriage. Fang Youdu was born as a Jinshi and stayed in the Ministry of Punishment. There is no loss of a senior member of the fourth and fifth ranks. With the current situation of the Xue family, it is not bad to be able to marry a rising family of Jinshi who has declined as an imperial merchant.

……

"Beitang's conditions are good, but it's a pity that it has been ignored for so many years. Liangcheng's status in Ji Town should not be bad, but after the Imchen Japanese Invasion, the Japanese invaders gradually disappeared. Gradually lost, and now it has been reduced to a garrison station, and many soldiers have completely become farmers,..."

Xue Biao obviously spent some time in Beizhi, Beitang, Lutai, Liangchengsuo, Dagu, Zhigu, Dingzigu and Sanwei in Tianjin, as well as Dingliu River in the lower reaches of Luanhe River, Yuepo port.

"The Dingliu River originally diverged from the Hulu River at Yuepogang, and the south and the north flowed into the sea respectively. However, the Hulu River was silted up during the Jingtai period of the Ming Dynasty, so the Luan River entered the sea from the Dingliu River. Liujiadun It is not far from where the Dingliu River enters the sea, and it is a good port, and Pubo, where Huimin Salt Works is located, is more than a hundred miles northeast of it."

"Do you think that Liujiadun can also open the port?" Feng Ziying asked in a deep voice.

He still has a lot of affection for Yongping Mansion, and now Lian Guoshi is serving as a co-prefect there. The four counties north of Yongping Mansion are basically in his hands, and the coal and iron complexes of Qian'an, Lulong, and Luanzhou , and the cement industry in Funing is developing rapidly, but Changli and Laoting still have some troubles. If they can start from Laoting, they will definitely be able to bring Laoting in.

"It is possible to open the port, but there are many problems." Xue Biao naturally understood Feng Ziying's thoughts, and said slowly: "The Luan River passes from Qian'an through Lulong to Luanzhou, and then passes through the west of Leting to the south of Liuzhou. Jiadun enters the sea, and almost half of Yongping Mansion is connected. The water volume is quite large in summer and autumn, especially after mining and building workshops in Qian'an, Lulong, and Luanzhou. The requirements are too high and the consumption is huge, if you can go to sea all the way through the Luan River, it is undoubtedly the most cost-effective move,..."

"Then what's the problem?" Feng Ziying thought about it a little bit, this Xue scorpion is easy to cultivate, and it will be of great use in the future.

"One is that the water volume of the Luan River is uncertain, and summer and autumn are naturally unhindered, but going up in winter and spring is similar to that of the Chao River, but the terrain along the Chao River is low and flat, and the Fengrun Baodi line basically only needs medium-sized ships with a low draft in winter and spring. It can pass, but the middle and lower reaches of the Luan River have more ups and downs, and Laoting is no problem, but the county seat of Leting is still a few miles away from the Luan River, and Luanzhou is surrounded by the river, but the requirements for boats can only be small and medium. The boats are gone, as for Luanzhou and above, it can only be summer and autumn,..."

Xue Biao talked eloquently, "The other thing is that the inland river ships are small. If they want to transport to the south, they need to transfer to Shanghai ships at Liujiadun. This is another wave of consumption..."

"That's all?" Feng Ziying was still not satisfied, and he wanted to put more pressure on Xue Biao, "Broaden your horizons, if you take the Weihe River in Dagu, the Chaohe River in Beitang, the Luanhe River in Liujiadun, and the tense Including Yuguan in Western Liaoning and Eastern Mongolia, how do you think we should make overall plans to maximize strengths and avoid weaknesses?"

Xue Biao's whole body shook, as if the tulle that had been bothering him had been pierced all of a sudden, with a thoughtful look on his face, he clapped his fists after a long time, "Liujiadun and Beitang in summer and autumn, Yuguan and Dagu in winter and spring. Big boats go to Yuguan and Dagu, medium and small boats go to Liujiadun and Beitang!"

"Well, children can be taught." Feng Ziying joked, "But this is not absolute, and it can be deployed flexibly according to the situation. What I want to say is that the severe drought this winter and next spring will definitely force food shortages, which can just play the role of these ports. , the same iron and cement are selling well, and more ports are needed to drive the smooth flow of the entire trade. Considering the winter freeze, how to deal with the contradictions and achieve the best results, this is what you need to plan next. Yes, if you do this wave well, I think you will be able to go out and operate anything independently, brother tadpole."

Feng Ziying sat up straight and smiled slightly: "Baoqin, how can you thank me for treating your brother like this?"

Baoqin's beautiful eyes are looking forward, her cherry lips are like fire, and she lowered her voice with her ears: "I will rest my life if I fight hard, and I will make you happy every day, that's all."
