Chapter 615 Children's City
The biggest difference between cavalry and infantry is that cavalry is more powerful.
But for such a little bit of talent, Ma Biao had to pay even more.
First of all, cavalry is not as fast as infantry.
Within the Han Dynasty, it is impossible to gallop as crazy as on the grassland.
There is farmland everywhere here, and the roads are not very wide, so it is difficult for cavalry to run.
Cavalry of this nature is more of a ceremonial nature, so one man and one horse are standard.
The strength of a horse's feet is not as strong as that of a human, and the horse needs more time to rest and adjust.
Therefore, the speed of cavalry is not absolute. In different places and in different environments, the speeds of cavalry and infantry are different.
Even though the Imperial Guards now use good horse breeds, their physical strength and endurance have been greatly improved compared to before.
But Ma Biao also has to pay a lot. People eat what horses chew. Now, after one trip, his annual income may not be enough.
Like Ma Biao, most people are on their way back home.
More or less, there are several soldiers, or orderlies, around him.
Even if they go back with honors on their backs, at this moment, they still feel a little heavy deep in their hearts.
After all, it has been ten years since I left home, and no one knows what has become of my home now?
No one knows whether that home is still the home they remember, whether it is what they remember.
But now that I have been working hard outside for many years, it is necessary to return home in fine clothes.
…
They are different from those nouveau riche who return home in fine clothes but are full of tangles in their hearts.
On the second day of the first lunar month, Wang Buxu, who was supposed to have a reunion in the palace to celebrate the New Year, did not have the opportunity or time.
As an emperor, the more holidays there are, the busier he will be. Especially during the Chinese New Year, he will be even busier.
Early in the morning, Wang Buxu left Luoyang City with his queen Chen Wei.
The group of people came directly to a newly built city about ten miles north of Luoyang.
It is small in scale, with only a small garrison and no administrative units.
This city is called Children's City. When you hear its name, you can see its roots. This is a city composed of children.
Children's City is the city Wang Buxu decided to build after hearing about Lunshi Marquis adopting orphans when he came to Lunshi County.
The people of Luoyang are multi-minded and it is difficult to govern them.
If tens of thousands of children are crammed in, it will be more difficult to manage the city, and it will make the entire city look chaotic, which will directly destroy the previous plan for Luoyang City.
So a new city was built here, called Children's City.
It is mainly used to adopt children who have lost their loved ones due to various reasons and have no one to adopt.
"Yes, I didn't expect that such a big change would happen here in just one year!" When he saw the Children's City, Wang Buxu couldn't help but express his satisfaction deep in his heart.
Since I spent a year going to the Western Regions, I knew nothing about things here during this year.
From the very beginning, the city was planned to be managed by the queen.
Of course, the actual manager is still the emperor, and the queen is only a auxiliary. As the mother of the world, theoretically speaking, children, women, etc. are actually under the queen's control.
No queen would dare to really bring it up, and no emperor would be so confident as to hand it over to them.
So in fact, the queen's management scope is only as large as the harem.
"This is all done in accordance with what His Majesty told us, and His Majesty's decision was wise. Since the Children's City was built, the country has become much more stable." Queen Chen Wei said with a smile.
Chen Wei was very attentive when doing this.
Although her childhood was considered happy, she also lived a life where no one cared about her for several years.
If it weren't for his good luck in being selected by the concubine back then, Chen Wei probably wouldn't know whose house he would take care of now.
Now that I have this ability and opportunity, I naturally can't be half-hearted about this matter.
Similarly, Chen Wei also knew very well why his husband did what he did.
"The children are living a very happy life now. They no longer have to be driven away by people wherever they go and have to live by begging. I am just a little worried that if we give them such good conditions, will they change their lives?"
His nature?" Chen Wei said again.
"Yeah!" Wang Buxuan nodded gently, thinking about this question seriously.
This is a question worth thinking about, and Chen Wei’s worries are not unreasonable.
Everything starts with the current management system of Children’s Town.
The children here are fed, housed, and go to school at an appropriate age.
The school has not been built yet, but according to the plan, it will be open for school next year.
Comparatively speaking, children living here are happier than living at home.
You don’t need to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, you don’t need to worry about whether you can’t afford tuition, and you don’t need to worry about whether farm work will affect your studies.
For them, these are nothing to worry about.
Food will be delivered by the court. When it's time to eat, you can go directly to eat. There is no need to chop wood, light a fire, or cook.

In other words, the children here live a life where they have to put their hands on clothes and open their mouths.
In other words, according to the current model, what is produced is just a group of flowers in the greenhouse, which are also called those ruined generations.
Of course Wang Buxian knew what consequences a child raised like this would have in the end.
Fortunately, it's still early, it's just the beginning, and there will be opportunities to change later.
"Let us allocate a piece of land outside the city for them to plant. From now on, the subsidies from the court will be reduced year by year. In addition, we will also arrange for them to do sanitation on the streets and patrols in the city..." Wang Buxu thought for a while, but still
Decided to use the most original method to solve this problem.
They are all children, so why can the children of poor people become parents early?
It’s not because we have experienced it, suffered a lot, and know that life is not easy, so we can mature earlier.
These children in the Children's Town should be the first ones to mature among all the grown-up children.
If these children are all dead because of the imperial court, where can we go to make excuses?
Therefore, working is the only way to make children experience the hardship of life.
Lu Xun once said that if you let your child work, you are helping him; if you don't let him do anything, you are harming him...
"I heard that you found someone to manage this city?" Wang Buxu turned around and asked.
"Well, they and I have the same status. They helped and encouraged each other back then. When I found them, some of them had disappeared. Although some had married, their lives were difficult, so I
