"Southern development, Wenru, how much time do you estimate it will take." Chen Xi asked thoughtfully, and he also had a mental estimate of the time. "One generation, if we are more ruthless, about fifteen years. To be honest, although it is not psychologically acceptable, in fact according to the estimation of the people I brought, the south is more suitable as a grain-producing area than the north. Of course, the prerequisite is Large-scale development." Li You said with a little pity, "Well, the south is actually relatively flatter, but there are too many things growing there." Li You has a good vision and brought a group of professionals to clean it up. In his spare time, the family also made a professional assessment of most of Jingyang in the south. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Afterwards, he personally handed it over to the professionals in Tongqing, saying that he must provide an evaluation result before he returned to Chang'an. In response, Li You even went to give the professional evaluators a sincere and convincing smile. Needless to say, Li You is not a professional and doesn't know much about these things. But when he returned to Chang'an, those professionals all had dark circles under their eyes, their eyes were bloodshot, and they had lost about five or six kilograms. Professional evaluation reports on hydrology and soil quality in various regions gave Li You very professional evaluation results by photo area. Although the final result was a bit counter-intuitive to Li You, the comprehensive evaluation content of those professionals, and even the comparison results between the experimental group and the control group, made Li You very convincing in agreeing with the conclusions drawn by this group of people. Of course, after listening to Li You's detailed report, Chen Xi couldn't help but maliciously speculate that the reason for Li You's agreement was probably not because of the huge number of evaluation reports produced by those professionals, but because of the detailed evaluation content. It was Li You who assigned the task himself. In this world, according to the current reality, theoretically there should not be a guy who knows clearly that he is working for Li You and dares to violate it. Therefore, although the content of this evaluation report is very contrary to the intuition of those professionals, there is no one in it. The words have been modified haphazardly. "It's pretty much what I thought." Chen Xi nodded and said. He meant the same thing, but Li You had never thought about the scale of resources Chen Xi was willing to invest - south of the Yangtze River, Chen Xi was preparing for ten years of development, developing the more important areas, and then slowly implementing them in the same way. Li Youxiang is almost the same, they are all military camps. "I think your proposal back then can be implemented, and it's more extreme." Li You glanced at the people here to listen to his speech, and seeing that Chen Xi already knew what he was talking about, he knocked on the table and said solemnly. "Resource integration, integration?" Chen Xi looked at Li You thoughtfully, guessing what Li You wanted to say, because it involved that, and even Chen Xi only proposed to implement not many things. "Yes, just get rid of the gadgets that are not suitable for certain places." Li You said extremely radically, "Then mass production in suitable places and transshipment. If we transship on a large scale now, we can also drive down prices. , more suitable for development. " "What do you want to do?" Chen Xi's eyes twitched twice. He suspected that Li You was going to make big news, so he asked tentatively. Although Chen Xi also has some ideas about abolishing certain unsuitable industries in certain areas, Chen Xi has never thought about radically implementing these things. After all, Chen Xi knows very well how far the bureaucracy will go when it comes to political achievements. No sense of moral integrity. Of course, one size fits all is fine, but one size fits all will cause some trouble, and it is indeed not very friendly to the people at the bottom. Of course, if it is implemented well, one size fits all is also a good solution. The problem is that Chen Xi has a deep understanding of the bureaucracy. I'm really worried. "After walking around the south, I deeply felt that it was better not to farm in places like Liangzhou. Let them all serve as soldiers. Food is transferred from other places, and the output of farming itself is low and a lot of time is wasted. "Li You immediately broke out a big news, and the whole audience was in an uproar. "This is unreasonable. If it all depends on transshipment elsewhere, what will the locals eat?" Zhang Zhao asked directly. On the contrary, Jia Xu, who understood the current situation in Liangzhou, was thoughtful. "All locals will be soldiers. They will be supported by the state. All professional soldiers. Those who want to farm will get out. All those who stay in Liangzhou will be soldiers!" Li You said with a sneer, "Just use Jiangnan as a grain production area. Anyway, except for the group of people in the south, Archery is okay, but the rest, hey hey!" "Li You dared to mock the southern soldiers for their weak combat effectiveness. Others basically kept silent on this issue. On the one hand, it was a matter of face, and on the other hand, it was also about abolishing the southern military system. This kind of proposal is really?Some nonsense. "You northerners can fight on a boat!" Yu Fan jumped on the spot and said sarcastically to Li You, "Southern ships and northern horses, you can indeed fight on land, but how many more can you fight on water?" "How many navy troops are there?" Li You said coldly, "Let's put it this way, I admit that there are elites in the south, but there are more miscellaneous soldiers in the south. If you ask me, just treat those guys in the south who are below a certain level and turn around and run away when they see the war horses charging towards them. Disband them all and let them farm. Being among the troops is harmful to the troops, and it is also harmful to them. " Li You immediately turned black. Pang Tong and others' expressions changed after hearing this. How good, but I have to admit that Li You is telling the truth. Many infantrymen in the south are the ones who turn around and run when they see the cavalry rushing towards them. They are simply a trap! "I know you are dissatisfied, but to be honest, the millions of people in the south can just make do with tens of thousands of sailors and archers. It's better to just give up on the rest. It's better for everyone." Li You didn't care at all. The expressions on the faces of Pang Tong and others were unusually tactful. "In this case, wouldn't the South be empty?" Lu Su changed the subject and gave both parties a step up. Now he really felt that if he continued to talk, he would have to take action. After all, this really touched the fundamental interests of the South. "Let professionals do professional things. Although the investigation reports in the south are very counter-intuitive, based on my experience, those who made these reports did not dare to fool me in this regard. That is to say, , The south should be the real grain-producing area of ??the entire Han Empire in the future." Li You looked unhappy, but he didn't mean to be hostile at all. Chen Xi nodded when he heard this. This is Li You's quality. Even if this guy comes up with something counter-intuitive, as long as he is sure it is correct, he will never deny it. To be honest, for the Han Dynasty, when 70% of the population was in the north and all five grain-producing areas were in the north, it was indeed very counter-intuitive that the south would become the core of agricultural output. Intuition, however, in terms of hydrology, light, climate, and soil, the south is indeed more suitable as a grain-producing area than the north. It can be said that if other people received this report, they would definitely be suspicious, and the investigators might even modify the data and then report it. Only people like Li You can check it. Even if the people below come up with something counter-intuitive, they don¡¯t dare to modify it. Only people like Li You can check it. Wrong, he dared to execute based on this. Thinking about it, in the future it will be an era when "Suzhou and Hangzhou are mature enough for the world", and then even more "Huguang is mature enough for the world". Based on this, Chen Xi also understands that the south will be the real grain-producing area in the future. This is what Chen Xi proposes. An important reason for vigorously developing the South. But now there is one more teammate, and he is a very powerful teammate. Before, others could only say that they were implementing Chen Xi's decision-making, rather than truly believing that the development of the south was extremely necessary. Think about it, without the government investing manpower and material resources, Lingnan was still a place of exile from the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods to the Tang Dynasty. This has been more than a thousand years! In fact, it was during the Song Dynasty that the south really entered the development period. Although the Yiguannan Crossing in the Jin and Jin Dynasties did develop a wave of Jiangnan, the population was so small, and the development method was private investment, which was useless! Therefore, Chen Xi came up with the idea of ??military settlements and agricultural reclamation construction corps, and even started with the idea of ????destructive and even destructive development. Anyway, professional agricultural reclamation corps can only invest in fifty at most. For an area as large as Jiangnan, destructive development It cannot be destroyed. But now that Li You has gone to Jiangnan in person, he seems to have a better idea. Chen Xi understands this and is willing to provide some support. It¡¯s just that Li You¡¯s steps are a bit too big. Professionalization is indeed a problem. Not bad, but isn¡¯t it a bit too fast? Although Chen Xi also felt that most of the southern infantry were not very good, saying so directly was a bit provocative. Moreover, Li You directly proposed to abolish Liangzhou's farmland and build military camps. Chen Xi felt that Li You probably wanted to eat. Wrong medicine. "I am convinced that the south will become the grain-producing area of ??the entire country." Chen Xi coughed twice to attract everyone's attention. "But giving up farming in Liangzhou, I think it is better to think about it again. Two is better, this is really too radical. " "No, I think the fact that the South is entirely a grain-producing area is also very radical, and the abolition of the Southern infantry is even more radical, not to mention the climate conditions in the South, and the "Precipitation is not suitable for food production," Yu Fan said directly as he slapped the table. This guy also had a very tough temper.
