Chapter 557: Daming Census (5)(1/2)
No matter how the Liaodong officials cursed behind their backs, they still completed the census work at the best speed.
In the cold winter of 199, come to check the plan.
After this project, dozens of civilians in the dozens of government officials under the jurisdiction of the Liaodong Administration Commission were frozen and sick.
"If you are injured, you can get a allowance and be praised for your praise."
Who says that being a civil servant should enjoy a happy life and sit in the office to drink tea and read newspapers?
When a public official is not different from being a soldier, he is on the front line and he is at risk of injury.
The harsh weather and geographical problems in Liaodong made the whole Liaodong complain this time, but Xu Buji, who was extremely strict with the bureaucratic group, was very generous afterwards.
The allowance alone was distributed billions in one go.
It is a reward, and every official at all levels in Liaodong can earn an extremely considerable amount of money.
Including in order to hire temporary personnel to participate in the work in Liaodong, the cabinet approved a special amount of funds in Liaodong that were the largest in each province in the country and did not use up. Xu Buji also ordered that it could be retained as subsidies for distribution.
After giving sweet dates, Xu Buji showed no mercy to some government offices that were progressing slowly in census work. After ordering them, he took off more than 300 hats in all sizes.
Xu Buji used this behavior to tell officials all over the world that those who work steadily will definitely give preferential treatment to the central government, but for those who are confused, they will resolutely kick back to their hometown to farm.
"Don't find reasons for the central government, saying that objective difficulties are not overcome. If there are difficulties, and the difficulties cannot be overcome, what will the court want these officials to do? Is it because the treasury has too much money to spend, or is it because the food that the people have worked hard to grow has no one to eat!"
The whole country of Liaodong was very troubled by Xu Buji, but the report card he handed over was dazzling enough.
Because of the incorporation into the original North Korea, and the millions of people in Jiangnan who broke into Guandong, the Liaodong province actually reported 6.763,247 people.
The numbers are directly accurate to the individual.
Perhaps there are sporadic people in Kuye, Mohe, Tungus and some areas in the north, but those who are really not taken care of and counted are not too careful. The cabinet did not take it seriously.
For example, the Sandu Temple, the cabinet did not require a census to be investigated in detail.
The vast area of Siberia, which was named by Zhu Yunwen in the vast area of Siberia in the north, was galloping with horsepower and could not finish it for a year, let alone searching for people everywhere.
Sanbu Moting only counts the population that lives on the grassland, has exchanges in daily life and can be collected and mobilized at any time.
One hundred,754,000 people.
Among them, the number of Han people has reached a huge amount of 1.35 million.
If the military recruitment is based on the habits of nomadic peoples, only three Motings can pull out 500,000 string-controlling men galloping on the horse's back at any time.
The future enemy of the Ming Dynasty was the only brothers' walls within the Han family, and there would never be any alien race that could pose any threat to the Ming Dynasty.
The provinces and regions with the greatest difficulty in census caused by geographical location are nothing more than the four places: Liaodong, Moting, Anxi and Uszang. Among them, Anxi has just been captured and fought for nearly ten years in the battle, Dingkou only has a pitiful 530,000, and it is also the surrendered people left by the Khanate of the Eastern Chagata.
There are Uighurs, Green Church, and a small number of Mongolian and Arabs. There are no Han people. The ethnic composition is extremely unfavorable to the rule of the Ming Dynasty. The cabinet has issued a red sign, which is an urgent matter to be done. It is directly left in Wenhua Hall and a special meeting will be held at any time to resolve the problem.
Uszang was mostly Buddhist serfs, and several generations of Dharma Kings were considered obedient people. Every few years, they would basically go to Nanjing to make a pilgrimage, kneeling at Zhu Yunwen's feet waiting for the crown. In addition, the serious altitude sickness problem, the cabinet was too lazy to check the 1.6 million entries reported by Uszang.
The project sign was marked with a white mark and it was thrown to the Tongzheng Department. If you can remember it in the future, you will deal with it.
The total area of these four regions accounts for almost half of the territory of the Ming Dynasty (Moting and Liaodong are too large), but the total population is only 1,640,000, accounting for a very small proportion.
Starting from inland, there are a lot more numbers of reports to cabinets in these provinces.
"The second largest number in Southern Zhili is Zhejiang, with a population of more than 9.63 million, which is almost the same as the total of the previous four regions."
Officials from the Household Administration Department took the summary reports from various provinces in Fengtian Hall and reported to the highest level of the ruler of the Ming Dynasty, including Zhu Yunwen.
This number is reasonable, and Zhu Yunwen nodded. After all, Zhejiang is the area with the least war in hundreds of years. Even if it is a melee at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, it was the first place to be ruled by Emperor Taizu.
"Fujian 6.65 million, Shandong 6.43 million, Shanxi 5.5 million, Hebei 4.7 million, Shaanxi 4.8 million, Gansu 2.16 million, Henan 5.49 million, Huguang 5.23 million, Sichuan 3.76 million, Yunnan 3.2 million, Guangxi 2.94 million, Guangdong 4.49 million, Jiangxi 9.84 million, Guizhou 2.55 million, Jiaozhi 4.12 million, Taiwan 1.66 million.
Adding to the 15.54 million Nanzhili, the total population of the country is 109.33 million!"
One hundred nine hundred and three hundred and three hundred and three hundred and three hundred and three hundred and millions!
Not to mention the cabinet, even Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but stand up.
Ding's mouth is over.
Before, all Nanjing was speculating whether it could exceed 8,000, even if everyone was very confident, but at most, only 8,600 to 8,800 were estimated. Even if there were very few people who guessed 9,000, they would laugh.
No one dares to hope to exceed 100 million.
But today the statistics obtained by the Household Administration Department have actually exceeded 100 million.
When the 15th Five-Year Plan ended, it was 73.14 million, and the difference between the two had reached 36.19 million!
Where did it come from?
Calculate the intermediate growth rate, the growth rate of the compound population has exceeded 4%!
"Is there a data error?"
Although Zhu Yunwen really hopes that this data is true, this number will become one of his greatest merit points after his death.
The dynasty left by Emperor Hongwu is only 60 million.
If it doubles in his hands, it will be a prosperous era where no one is qualified to question it again.
The territory has never been seen in history, and the Dingkou has never been seen in history.
This is not called a prosperous dynasty. Which dynasty of ancestors dares to be the first in front of the Ming Dynasty?
"There should be no error, this is true."
The official of the Household Administration Department held his anger and suppressed his excitement, saying: "The data of each province are all kept as a corresponding reference with the records of the Hongwu Dynasty earlier.
Not to mention the Hongwu dynasty, even during the 15th Five-Year Plan, the statistics at that time were fewer than the five provinces of Uszang, Anxi, Jiaozhi, Taiwan and Guizhou, which was a difference of more than 10 million.
Moreover, during the 15th Five-Year Plan, the number of Dingkou in Liaodong was not counted and recorded in the Ministry of Revenue. Therefore, this was more than 6.7 million.
The total growth of the remaining provinces is indeed too fast, but the progress of urbanization is the most important reason. A large number of suburban villages are abandoned, and the people moving to the city are easy to count.
Visiting the public to investigate the population has caused the private slaves stored by the landlords to lose the opportunity to hide. This is the second thing.
The abolition of slavery and commission restrictions a few years ago led to a large number of servants and maids employed by landlords, rich men, and scholars and family families who were released and entered the people. This is the third reason.
After the order to return farmland, most people lived in the city, the city became larger, and the people's exchanges were closely related, which promoted the union between men and women, and allowed children to be nurtured. This is the fourth place.
So, considering the above, the 36.19 million ounces that were missing were cut off by 18 million. The actual number of newly registered and children was only more than 18 million."
The explanation of the Household Administration Department made everyone completely acceptable. This is true. The statistics of the First Five-Year Plan are not true and detailed. Several provinces have not counted it.
The actual number during that period should have been around 90 million. After ten years of progress and a few million from North Korea, it has only increased to 109 million today.
With this calculation, the growth rate is about 1.5%, which is the normal growth rate of a prosperous dynasty.
After repeated confirmation, Zhu Yunwen burst into laughter.
"The Yuan Dynasty's revision of the Song Dynasty history, talking about the prosperity of the Southern Song Dynasty, only a fictitious word that spoke more than ten thousand. Now, our Ming Dynasty actually planned to be 109 million Dingkou, and to rule the Tang and Song dynasties and the Tang and Song dynasties!"
At this moment, even if anyone else flattered Zhu Yunwen, he could accept it calmly.
"Everyone who is proud and prosperous in the world depends on the Holy Lord in the court. Your Majesty has made great achievements for all ages, and his virtue has been forever!"
The smart man had already started singing congratulatory speeches, and in an instant, the sound of the mountain suddenly started.
After being praised for its comfort, Zhu Yunwen waved his hand with a smile and stopped the cheers.
"Ding's mouth is over 100 million, which is naturally a joy for the country, but in addition to being happy, I hope that the Lords can feel the weight of their shoulders even more. This is a billion people waiting for dinner."
With this reminder, Fengtian Palace, which was originally very happy, suddenly became unpredictable.
Everyone came to their senses. It is indeed a good thing to have a large population, but for those of them, such officials who are in charge of the country, it is not all a good thing to have such a large population. How heavy the pressure on their shoulders is.
"You always call me saints, and I am truly sacred. How can I manage it alone by billions of people, I still need all the best friends and masters."
Zhu Yunwen could already feel the heavy burden on his shoulders, no less than the heavy burden of Mount Tai overturning.
In such a huge country, an era where Dingkou is infinitely reproductive and growing, and all walks of life are beginning to prosper and develop to form a certain order, it is no longer something that an emperor can control by a forward-looking person.
In the context of a specific historical era, there will inevitably be new appeals with the transformation of domestic social development in this country. This appeal may be proactive, such as the working hours system mentioned by the factory manager when Xu Buji was investigating the Nanjing factory.
This is the proactive appeal of the workers, and this is just one of the millions of microcosms of the appeal of the times.
More appeals are passive, including the so-called "Malos spiritual demand level" which is just one of them. It is more of the governance needs that are closely related to people's lives, inspired by the people's wisdom.
Whether this demand is universally idealized or rationalized is the biggest and most difficult problem facing the rulers.
This appeal is a passiveness of the entire country and society.
What makes people even more helpless is that this request is almost unsolvable.
What is universal idealized governance?
This is what we often call the so-called ideal country.
The emperor violated the law and committed the same crime as the common people, which is based on a universal idealization that everyone is equal before the law.
This country does not pick up the remains of the road, does not close the door at night, everyone abides by the law, and everyone has noble morality. These are all universal idealizations.
So what is rational governance?
Because everyone is not picking up the remains of the road and not closing their doors at night, everyone is morally noble, and a desperate poor man is born and steals the property of a family.
From then on, the family who lost their property began to suspect their neighbors, and the neighbors' home was stolen by the first bandit, and began to suspect the first stolen family.
Under the dispute, there was a judgment and judgment.
