Qin Chengye didn't wait, but Yan Xiwen did.
"Your Majesty, the latest statistics from the Ministry of Household Affairs are out, take a look."
Yan Xiwen handed Fu Xiaoguan a booklet, which was a list of poverty-stricken areas and poor people in Daxia that Fu Xiaoguan requested from the Ministry of Household Affairs.
"In the eleven Daoliang Autonomous Regions of Daxia, the per capita annual income is ten taels of silver as the limit. There are quite a few below this number..."
"Actually, there are them in every province. Due to the conditions of the ground, farming conditions in alpine mountainous areas are extremely poor. The most they grow is sweet potatoes, because rice needs to meet certain conditions, such as water sources."
"They have no other source of income. Some counties have mobilized the people to go out to make a living and work in the workshops outside to make money. This is much more profitable than growing crops, which has also created a phenomenon. There has been a massive outflow of people, and many villages have become increasingly desolate. People in entire villages have even left, and a large amount of farmland has been abandoned. ”
"But not everyone is willing to leave their hometown, or it may be due to various reasons, such as there are elderly and children at home who need to be taken care of, and they cannot leave and can only stay in their original place. So after these days of screening, The number of poor people in Daxia is more than 60 million. ”
Fu Xiaoguan took a deep breath. Today, the total population of Daxia is less than 500 million, and one-eighth of them are poor!
Is this prosperous age really a prosperous age?
The development of commerce will inevitably lead to the flow of population. Fu Xiaoguan was originally prepared for this, but he is still trying to avoid a large outflow of labor, so he has been encouraging businessmen to build workshops in poor areas.
I haven’t paid much attention to it for several years, and now it seems that the situation is not what I thought.
"Sit down, let me take a look at this, and you can make your own tea."
The two of them were very casual, and Yan Beixi actually made a pot of tea.
After a while, Fu Xiaoguan put down the roster in his hand, "Do you think this situation is good or bad?"
Yan Xiwen pondered for a moment, "In fact, the current Daxia is very different from the Yu Dynasty in the past. Your Majesty, the business of the Yu Dynasty was sluggish and the people had no food to eat and no clothing to cover their bodies, so at that time you launched The strategy of promoting both merchants and farmers was also implemented. ”
“Because of the preferential policies, many bold businessmen have gone to build workshops in remote areas, such as Pingling County and Quyi County in Yongning Prefecture.”
"But now Daxia has already solved the problem of people's clothing and food in the main body, and has entered the first industrial revolution. It has entered the industrial society. In my opinion, business is due to the progress of industry. , it has developed extremely fast and has left agriculture far behind."
"This is the current reality. The people are liberated from the fields. This is what you told me when you were in Xishan. Now it has been realized. They have left the fields and entered the factories, earning more money. Big money also creates huge value, which is progress, so from this perspective, I think it is a good thing!”
Fu Xiaoguan held a tea cup and listened carefully. Yan Xiwen was right. The development of business will inevitably lead to the emergence of more factories. Even if these factories undergo innovation and adopt new equipment and technology, they will eventually We still need people.
Daxia's business has now reached a new level. Various commodities are sold as far away as Eurasia on land, and a large amount of goods are also sold on sea to Asia.
This is the basis for the prosperity and healthy development of Daxia's economy. If there are gains, there will be losses. What is lost is the sharp decrease in the population engaged in agriculture.
The grain produced in Daxia can already be exported on a small scale, but the problem now is that there are still 60 million people who still don’t have enough to eat - barren land, poor living environment, and no place to go Making money meant that they didn't even have money to buy food.
"Then how do you think we can solve the problems of these 60 million people?"
Fu Xiaoguan put down the tea cup and said: "I once said that although common prosperity is impossible, we cannot let the gap between the rich and the poor become too big!"
"You have to understand that they are all the people of Daxia. They have the right to live on this land, and we have the right to make them live a better life!"
Yan Xiwen nodded, "So, I believe that the next priority for the country is the rural revitalization plan!"
Fu Xiaoguan was startled and then laughed, "Come on, come on, this is a good idea. Can you tell me in detail how to implement the rural revitalization plan?"
Yan Xiwen came from the county magistrate to the governor. He has extremely rich experience in governance. When he was in Yao County, he listened to Fu Xiaoguan and took the lead in taking up the commercial banner of Yao County and opening up the Yao County port. Let Yao County become a banner of commercial reform in the former Yu Dynasty.
After he went to Tailin City to become the governor, he did not stay in the governor's mansion every day.
The Yi country was so poor!
He was so poor that when he went on inspection, he shed tears when he saw the common people!
With the help of Daxia's infrastructure and his good relationship with Fu Xiaoguan, Yun Xiyan and others, he obtained a large number of infrastructure projects from the Ministry of Commerce and transferred all the cities and towns in the large land of Yi State. The roads have been repaired.
A guy used tens of millions of migrant workers to temporarily solve the urgent needs of the people who were almost starving to death.
There are too many people and the project is advancing too fast. All the official roads in that place have been built. What should we do next?
He did one thing - every village had cement roads!
He took up His Majesty's banner, because Fu Xiaoguan did say that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads.
He also obtained a huge amount of special funds from the Ministry of Household Affairs and built wide cement roads in all the villages on this huge land.
At the same time, he borrowed rice seeds and sweet potato seeds from Fu Badai and distributed these seeds to various towns and villages. In just one year, he fed nearly 100 million people on that land.
The four roads under the jurisdiction of Tailin City became the only place in Daxia where every village was connected to cement roads. With the great convenience of transportation, he introduced a large number of businessmen and went to various towns to build workshops. Solved the job problem of surplus labor force.
So for Yan Xiwen, he has extremely rich experience in rural issues and business issues.
"You are testing me. In fact, I learned it all from you," Yan Xiwen chuckled and took a sip from the tea cup. "You have raised the issue of rural areas and farmers a long time ago, but in recent years you have We were too busy expanding sea and land transportation arteries to pay attention to this matter.”
"This is what I think. There is too much gold shipped back from the Leah continent. Let's take some of it and set up a rural revitalization fund under the leadership of the Ministry of Household Affairs. This is the old rule."
“Let’s start with the roads. Once the roads in the countryside are open, it will be more convenient for the villagers to go to the towns. Even if they raise a few chickens and lay a few eggs, they can go to the market to exchange for some money, not to mention those in the mountains. It’s not like we have nothing, there are always some specialties, and there are always some unique scenery.”
"Now that most people in Daxia are rich, they like to travel... It was you who initiated this."
“Only when roads are open can tourism develop.”
"Don't look at the poverty of those people in the deep mountains and old forests, but there is a different kind of scenery in the deep mountains and old forests that city people have never seen! Then Daxia Weekly reported it, and the government once again touted it, those rich people are willing to Go."
