When others take up a post in a place, the first question is how to make friends with the local dignitaries. When Liu Bei takes a post in Qi County, the first question is how to settle more than 200,000 gangsters!
Yes, they are worse than refugees. At least they were Yellow Turban bandits before this, so it is more appropriate to call them gangsters.
Fortunately, Wang Xuan had already planned this. On the one hand, he brought all the Yellow Turban leaders back to meet and comfort them. On the other hand, he selected 4,000 well-trained soldiers from the army.

Although the shares are in different states and counties, they are naturally close in identity.
The fifty people were divided into five teams again, and each team selected a commander to be in charge, and the commander was responsible for the soldiers sent out. The command was passed down level by level, and the order was only passed to his own soldiers each time.
In one day, 200,000 people were divided among them. After a full meal, everyone immediately became much more well-behaved.
"Pa", a rough plan was thrown in front of Xi Zhicai. Wang Xuan pointed at it and said, "Take a look."
Xi Zhicai didn't ask any questions. He picked it up and looked through it. The main contents were just a few items.
1. Clean up Linzi City and remove all garbage, including collapsed houses and the like.
Second, the food previously grown outside the city was divided into areas, weeds were cleared and simple ditches were dug.
Three to two hundred thousand people were divided into several areas to camp, and the camps must strictly comply with military standards.
Others include cleaning personal hygiene, washing clothes, preventing infectious diseases, etc.
"Is there a problem?" Wang Xuan asked.
"no problem."
"Then get it done as soon as possible." Wang Xuan said, turned around and left, saying as he walked: "I will determine the location of each mining area."
This is the top priority. It is too easy for trouble to happen if two hundred thousand unstable factors gather together. As long as the locations of various mining areas are determined, diversion can be carried out immediately.
Wang Xuan set out with a group of cavalry. The first goal was to find coal mines, because both brick kilns and steelmaking required a large amount of coal.
Although the transportation in this world is not convenient, horses run very fast and people are powerful. This is the key reason why Wang Xuan is confident in building Qi County in one year.
As long as these people are fed, even ordinary people can have the strength of the weightlifting champion in the previous life, weighing four hundred kilograms is not a problem. When it comes to specific work, the efficiency will be ten times higher than in the Ming Dynasty.
Times!
No mine buried dozens of meters deep?
It's okay. Wang Xuan was accompanied by five generals who had mastered their Qi. He wielded their weapons and dug a big hole in a matter of seconds.
Such manpower is more powerful than machinery when used, crushing rocks and searching for iron ore, limestone ore, and clay ore. After a week, Wang Xuan led people to search the surrounding three hundred miles and identified all the mineral spots.
Wang Xuan has done mining operations too many times. As long as he determines the location, calls people over and provides on-site guidance, each mine will soon be up and running.
Question: What form of construction is the fastest?
Answer: Great collective! This has been tested in practice.
It is impossible to pay wages to a group of bandits and bandits. This is a chance for them to atone for their sins.
He held a meeting for his 4,000 soldiers and asked all the soldiers to memorize a set of sayings compiled by Wang Xuan. After returning home, he gave a good lecture to his 50 men. He should preach it every day before eating and before going to bed.
Nothing more than brainwashing.
Tell them that only by reforming well can they repay the mistakes they have made. Only by working hard can they welcome a new life. Those who perform well will be re-issued their household registration after half a year. From then on, all the previous things will be wiped out and they will be big men again.
good people.
And during the renovation period, multigrain noodle steamed buns are enough!
Without anything else, just the words "manage enough" are enough for everyone to work hard.
Don't think about being lazy. If one person is lazy, a pair of ten people will be punished. They won't beat you or scold you, they just punish you with meals. In this era, there is nothing more vicious than punishing you with meals.
Oh, steamed buns, this was first popularized by Wang Xuan in the army. It is delicious, easy to digest, and anti-hungry. Now it has been promoted to the whole Linzi, and it has become popular all of a sudden. With some pickles, it is simply a delicacy in the world. I have never felt like this.
Have fun.
After finishing the detailed plan, Xi Zhicai threw these things to others and followed Wang Xuan ever since. He wanted to see how Wang Xuan built Qi County in one year.
At the beginning, I still recruited a lot of mediocre talents along the way. They didn't have any great abilities, but they were pretty good at doing actual work.
"Is this the coal you are talking about?" Xi Zhicai picked up a black and shiny piece of coal on the ground, looked at Wang Xuan and asked: "This thing can burn, and is it better than firewood?"
"You will know if you try it!" Wang Xuan stretched out his hand to indicate, and explained: "It is recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas that it is called 'Stone Nirvana', which means Nirvana. This thing is a plant that was grown countless years ago.
The essence formed after a series of changes buried deep underground.”
"Is this the brick kiln you want to build? Is it so big?" Xi Zhicai was a little surprised.
"Wrong!" Wang Xuan waved his hand, "This is indeed a brick kiln, but the purpose is to bake bricks and use them to build a real-scale brick kiln. We need a lot of bricks to build houses, water conservancy facilities, and various other things in the city in the future.
Factories and buildings require a lot of bricks."
"What is this for? Why should we smash the stone?" Xi Zhicai incarnates a hundred thousand whys, and different questions are always raised every day.
"It is used to bake cement. This is a kind of primary cement that can be used to build various buildings and bond stones. The future consumption will be huge beyond your imagination."
"Is this the blast furnace you're talking about?" Xi Zhicai raised his head and looked up at the furnace, which was more than ten meters high, with a glint in his eyes.
"Yes, if you just get the best iron material, it will weigh three thousand kilograms all the way!"
"So many!" Xi Zhicai looked at the seven or eight other blast furnaces under construction in surprise, and his mouth opened wide for a moment.
In the Han Dynasty, a strict iron monopoly system was implemented, and there was no such thing as private ownership. There were 68 iron mines. The iron output was estimated to be about 5 million kilograms.
Xi Zhicai only made a rough calculation and knew that the annual output of these blast furnaces alone reached about half of the total output of Dahan. This, this is simply too scary. How can Linzi, a mere city, be consumed even if it is expanded to the entire Qi County?
Finished so much iron material?
Before he could ask the question, Wang Xuan continued: "There is no way, this iron ore is relatively small, the iron ore output is only so much, it is difficult to expand the scale, wait, we will expand a few more steel plants later!
