The number one scholar of the Song Dynasty

The First Champion Chapter 623

In the society at this time, the population is indeed important. There are [-] million people in the Song Dynasty, so the wealth of the family is far from that of other countries.

The later Southern Song Dynasty was able to resist Mongolia for 50 years, and the seemingly powerful Xixia and Jin countries perished within a few years.

After all, with the large population of the Song Dynasty, the productivity can keep up, and the source of soldiers can also keep up.

Cai Jing continued: "Your new policy, as long as the people at the bottom are willing to work, they will have food to eat. If the weather is good, there will be surplus food. In this way, the people will be able to feed more children."

"The entry-to-school system allows ordinary children from poor families to have the opportunity to read and read, and there are more ways out."

"Medical schools have trained countless doctors, which has reduced the mortality rate of the common people."

Every time Cai Jing said something, he tapped the table. At the end of the speech, there seemed to be a gleam in his eyes.

Such a person, when he was young, might not have had the lofty ambition to help the world.

It's just that after being immersed in officialdom for many years, the edges and corners have been worn away, and he only cares about power.

Now that Yang Lin gave him a chance, Cai Jing burst out with surging passion as if he had rejuvenated, and said in a concentrated voice: "Wen Yuan, we already have all the conditions to encourage birth and increase the population."

"Nowadays, there is only one decree. After three children, for each additional child, the imperial court will reward some money, and the local yamen will distribute some food every year. In the future, the Great Song Dynasty will definitely be more prosperous."

When Yang Lin heard it, he said, this makes a lot of sense.

The vision of the old man is farther than that of his own two lives. In this era, nothing compares to the population.

Such a large territory, so many resources, and such a vast world need the people to develop, protect, and expand!

Yang Lin got up, bowed to Cai Jing, and said: "The Grand Master is indeed far-sighted and considerate, and he is a pillar of the country."

Cai Jing hurriedly gave him a hand, and Yang Lin took advantage of the situation to stand up and said excitedly: "Encouraging childbirth is indeed a major national plan, which benefits the country and the people, and the merits will last forever. It's just the amount of reward that needs to be determined by the grand master."

Cai Jing finally bid farewell to his career as a writer and began to participate in the formulation of major events in the community. He felt very comfortable and agreed with a stroke of his beard.

Yang Lin sent him outside the gate of Zhaodefang, and turned around with a smile, apparently in a good mood.

What Cai Jing said is so correct. In this era, children are encouraged. In the future, the whole world may be full of Han Chinese.

Nowadays, the competitiveness of other ethnic groups is indeed a bit unappealing. They just want to encourage them, but they don't have such a rich family background as themselves.

In fact, apart from Yelu Dashi, who encouraged Khitan people in the west to keep more wives and concubines and keep their blood, there is no ruling group that cares about the birth of children for the people at the bottom.

Yelu Dashi's encouragement of birth is to restore Qidan's vitality for ten years; Yang Lin's encouragement of birth is a thousand-year plan to seize the world's resources and territory.

Yang Lin was full of imagination, and returned to the yard. When the corridor turned a corner, he accidentally bumped into Li Ning'er and Yin Qianqian who were walking with their arms together.

The two exclaimed coquettishly, seeing that it was Yang Lin, Yin Qianqian couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing: "Da Lang is thinking of something good, he doesn't even look at the road."

Yang Lin hugged the slender waists of the two men, one on the left and the other on the right, and said, "I just got a good strategy for governing the country, and I'm about to work hard with you."

Li Ning'er quickly waved her hands, and declined: "We females can just take care of Da Lang's daily life, but don't dare to interfere in politics."

Yang Lin snorted, grabbed the two's buttocks, rubbed them vigorously, and cursed: "You two tell yourself, who in the house has been with me for as long as you? You are sweating all over your body, but you haven’t given birth to a son and a half daughter, so who can I be sorry for?”

The two women were ashamed, red-eyed and repeatedly accused. Yang Lin's left and right hands worked hard together, and one of them slapped his buttocks, and said majesticly: "Useless things, you have the nerve to stroll around here. Go back and kneel side by side, let's Try again."

Chapter 695 Improved Diet

When Yang Shaozai took the lead and developed the population, Cai Jing was not idle.

The reward system was quickly finalized, not only that, but also a series of supporting systems.

For example, some of the temple land confiscated by the Department of Culture and Education was allocated to the local medical school for the cultivation of herbal medicine.

Then children under the age of ten, if they get sick, can enjoy free treatment at the local school building.

Reducing the death rate is as important as increasing the birth rate, and Cai Jing is the founder of the residential care system. It can be said that he is the earliest implementer of national welfare in the world. It is easy to formulate this system.

Population is the foundation of everything. There are countless resources in this era, waiting for people to develop and occupy them.

It is absolutely worthwhile to pay some financial expenses for this, as long as the upper echelon saves some vain expenses, it will be more than enough.

In Zhao Ji's time, the maintenance expenditure of a garden within a year was enough to feed hundreds of thousands of people.

Now that the imperial court's tax revenue has been greatly increased, and there is no major threat at the border, the front line has been pushed beyond the Great Wall, and Nanyang is still developing. Yang Lin does have the confidence to give some benefits.

After the mansion newspaper was published, the reputations of Cai Jing and Yang Lin were indistinguishable for a while, and the folks sang their praises, and many strange and bizarre stories began to circulate.

Both of them have hooked up with the gods in the sky, the common people are so honest, it is easy to send some food to make you a fairy.

This spring, the entire land of China is immersed in the joy of giving birth.

Zhaode Square is also not immune to the common customs. In the back kitchen, Su Yina with a red face is beside the stove.

Yang Lin had just worked hard on her, and Su Yina warmly helped him cook the common cheese in the prairie before he woke up.

There is a sweet fragrance in the small print.

"It's cold in spring today, so ask yourself what you want. Crispy warm scallion white wine, milk and rehmannia glutinosa porridge." Butter wild garlic wine, milk and rehmannia glutinosa porridge, both warm your stomach and satisfy your gluttony. Bai Juyi must be a healthy and wealthy man who can enjoy so many wives and concubines. People with taste in life.

Daigo is said to be cheese. In the Nirvana Sutra, people are divided into five flavors: milk, cheese, raw crisp, cooked crisp. Daigo comes from milk from cows, cheese from milk, Jesus from cheese, and Jesus from raw Out of the ripe Jesus, out of the ripe Jesus comes the blue water.

Daigo, that is, dry cheese is the highest state of dairy processing.Enlightenment is the highest state of spiritual satisfaction.

Yang Lin smiled and said, "In the past few years, in the tea-horse trade, what is the product we bought the most?"

Zhang Shuye understood this quite well, and replied: "Short slaughter, the first is mutton sheep, and the second is horses."

Song people like to eat sheep, so the demand for mutton once surpassed that of horses.

Even if there was a shortage of horses in the Song Dynasty for a hundred years, the people and the army both had great demand, but they still couldn't match the enthusiasm for eating sheep.

Yang Lin nodded and said, "The Mongolians on the grasslands have a kind of dairy cow. This cow is not used for farming or eating meat, but it can produce milk all the time."

"Cow's milk can strengthen the body. It was said in "Qi Min Yao Shu" in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and Sun Simiao also talked about the benefits of milk in the Tang Dynasty."

"I intend to send people to the grasslands to introduce dairy cows and sheep to improve the health of the people. What do you think?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, thinking that it was not good, it was unnecessary, such trivial matters as the food and drink of the common people were not for big officials like me to worry about.

However, since Yang Shaozai proposed it, it would not take up much manpower, nor would it cost too much money, so Bai Shizhong, Zhang Shuye and others did not want to object.

The two bigwigs didn't express their views, but of course the others waved their flags and cheered, and they were very supportive.

Yang Lin was overjoyed. These officials are quite open-minded. He immediately said: "After the introduction, it needs local breeding, and also needs to test the correct way of eating. The most important thing is that the dried cheese can be used as military rations. , so that our soldiers have the capital for expedition."

"All of this will trouble you all."

When everyone heard this, they secretly screamed in their hearts that it was not good, they were fooled!
