?

Time is like the quicksand in your hand, or like an arrow shot out, passing in a flash.

Ten days passed after Li Wang Shuang massacred the Qiang people who were given the branch of Hequ.

What can Ten Days of Light do?

There are many things that can be done in ten days, but there are many things that cannot be done.

Within ten days, it is enough to have many things, and there are many things that cannot be born.

Wang Shuang passed by Chang'an and thought that the defenders in Chang'an would have some actions, but what surprised him was that they did not move, as if they were dead.

Yang Xiu, Jiang Wei and others took advantage of the Wu family to take control of Liangzhou. They thought it would be very smooth, but they encountered trouble at the first stop of Jincheng.

This trouble is not because Qu Yan doesn't cooperate.

No, Qu Yan cooperated very well, but "they didn't meet their wishes", and a fire suddenly occurred in Yunwu County where the registered residence was placed.

Without a household registration, it is not easy to investigate the population of Jincheng County. It is natural to investigate one by one, but it is time-consuming. Moreover, if the fire is not an accident, even if people go down to investigate, they will probably not be able to find a complete number.

How could Yang Xiu know about Qu Yan and the idea of ​​Jincheng Qu family?

But after he smiled, he did not continue to investigate.

If it were before, Cao Chong would have had time to play the Game of Thrones with Qu Yan, but now it won't work.

His time is tight.

However, this is also the reason why Qu Yan dared to play tricks in front of Cao Chong.

To deal with the Jincheng Qu family, if you don’t have time, you will definitely not be able to remove it. However, if it takes time, will there be variables in it appear? It is something Cao Chong doesn’t want to see.

Therefore, Yang Xiu just asked the officials who managed the household registration and reported the previous household registration numbers. After that, Jincheng County paid taxes according to the previous household registration.

As for whether the official's words are true or false, of course there is no need to think about it.

This must be fake!

However, the Qu family in Jincheng at least reported the number of 100,000 people and more than 20,000 households, which is also acceptable for Jincheng.

Of course, it is certain that the Qu family in Jincheng must make profits.

Even Yang Xiu couldn't stop this.

but...

Now the Jincheng Qu family's pride is only temporary. For temporary benefits, offending Cao Chong is undoubtedly a loss of watermelon and sesame seeds. In the future, after Cao Chong is free, the Jincheng Qu family will not be able to get over it so easily.

After passing Jincheng, Xiping County is here.

Xiping County is also the territory of the Qu family in Jincheng, but here is not the place where the Qu family in Jincheng is the most securely controlled. Moreover, Qu Yan made a small move in Jincheng, so it was impossible for him to do it again in Xiping. If this is the case, he would really treat Yang Xiu and others as fools.

The first time I did something like that, it could be an accident, but if it happened one after another, Yang Xiu had to worry about it.

Even if the opposite is the Qu family of Jincheng.

Nothing else!

If this is the case, then there is no need to go the next path. People from counties only need to burn their household registration.

Xiping County has a much smaller population than Jincheng County. The main reason is that Xiping County has more mountains and fewer fields.

With a full calculation, there is only a population of 70,000 to 80,000.

The population of Xiping County was investigated by Yang Xiu himself, and the number error will not exceed one thousand people.

Of course, the premise is that there are no Tibetans in the Qu family in Jincheng.

If we really want to govern Liangzhou and do not clean up the aristocratic family first, it would be impossible.

Yang Xiu also came from a noble family, and he was a great family. He naturally understood the strength of a noble family better, and also understood the benefits and disadvantages that aristocratic families would bring.

After passing Xiping County, it is Longxi County.

There are more Qiang people in Longxi County, but it is difficult for Han families to survive, so the power of the government here is stronger.

The government has strong power, and without damaging their respective interests, the household registration collection will naturally go smoothly.

Just one day later, Yang Xiu arrived in Tianshui County.

Tianshui County was where Jiang Wei was before.

With an acquaintance, the household registration is also quickly organized.

With the example of Jiang Wei, many people in Tianshui County want to climb up to Cao Chong's high branches.

Two days later, Yang Xiu arrived in Guangwei County.

Guangwei County is not large, with a population of only tens of thousands. After passing Guangwei County, it is Wu's family.

Those who know the times were heroes. After Cao Chong sent troops, the Wu family surrendered immediately. Therefore, no one resisted Yang Xiu's arrival in the Wu family, but instead he gathered the local household registration faster.

Ten days have passed since Wu's coming out.

This is the ten days after Yang Xiu.

And in Guzang, Cao Chong spent ten days like this.

A few days ago, Cao Chong cleaned up the end of the four counties in Liangzhou. Not to mention anything else, he settled the people from all over the country. That was naturally the top priority. For this reason, Cao Chong also pardoned some slaves who performed well in the war.

As for why we do this, it is naturally to increase the population of the four counties in Liangzhou.

Slaves are not considered populations, slaves are more like livestock than people.

Slaves cannot pay taxes to the government, but the people can.

Of course, it was only a few hundred people to make slaves a commoner.

There are too many people, let alone the aristocratic families disagree, the people will not agree.

As for the reasons, it is easy to understand.

It's just class psychology.

After cleaning up the families of the four counties of Liangzhou, Cao Chong's government orders became much smoother. In an atmosphere of upward and downward effectiveness, the four counties of Liangzhou not only quickly restored their economy and stability, but also restored their previous commercial transactions.

The most important reason why Dunhuang County in Jiuquan County can create countless wealth is commerce, not agriculture.

Cao Chong, as a later generation, understood this more than anyone else.

Therefore, at the beginning, Cao Chong restored commerce and agriculture.

After doing these things, it was already five or six days later.

After that, Cao Chong stayed in the provincial governor's mansion for a day.

It's been a day off.

Speaking of which, Cao Chong hadn't had a good rest in the few months he arrived in Liangzhou. Not to mention the weekend, Cao Chong didn't even have a single weekend.

After arriving in Liangzhou, Cao Chong was like a donkey pulling a mill, working day and night. Fortunately, no one dared to unload the mill and kill the donkey.

After resting in the provincial governor's office for a day and a night, Cao Chong became busy again.

Of course, the so-called rest in Cao Chong, the provincial governor's office, is just another kind of fatigue, just a way of fatigue that men like.

In the following days, Cao Chong basically spent the third hospital.

Cao Chong from the Military Academy gave those people what seemed to be there and there was nothing, so he asked them to think deeply and explore.

Of course, Cao Chong in the Academy of Geography will not let them think about anything profound, but Archimedes' incorrect principles can still be revealed. After they understood some of Archimedes' laws, Cao Chong will guide them in other ways to let them know about Galileo's law. In the end, it was the Apple problem.

These laws are very simple, but they need to be fully mastered and it is not easy to extend. This is also the reason why Cao Chong did not give his hope to the Academy of Geju in a short period of time.

As for the Agricultural College, Cao Chong directly told the Quyuan Plough and the Water Wheel, and named the function of feces. As for the reason, Cao Chong of course threw it to the old Taoist priest who was good at taking the blame.

Compared with the Academy of Geju and Military Academy, Cao Chong took a step forward more slowly.

As for things like hybrid rice, you don’t have to think about them in a short time.

However, if the Military Academy of Gewu Academy is good enough, it can still promote the Agricultural Academy indirectly.

This is what Cao Chong thought.

Technology trees require deep foundations.

If the foundation is shallow, the fruits that grow in the end of the technology tree will inevitably be deformed.

In the next few days, Cao Chong kept hanging out in the Third Hospital.

As for the situation in Yecheng, Cao Chong naturally knew it.

However, it is not the best time to go back.

Although the four counties in Liangzhou are in control, they are not solid after all. If Cao Chong leaves at this critical moment, then the previous efforts may be in vain.

Compared with the Lord of Liangzhou and the Lord of Wei, Cao Chong certainly wanted the Lord of Wei.

However, if you don’t even have the foundation of Liangzhou, how can you fight against Cao Pi?

When it comes to support from others, Cao Pi, who loves aristocratic families, can get more support, while Cao Chong gets much less support.

However, *** said it well: power comes from the barrel of a gun.
