What happened after that was still fresh in Liu Xuan's mind.
After getting his affirmative answer, Tian Chou ran up without caring about his image.
Ignoring the temperature of the iron pot, he directly broke off a small piece of salt crystal with his hand and stuffed it into his mouth.
After that.
He suddenly burst into tears.
Liu Xuan didn't know whether he was crying because of the salty taste or because he was excited to cry because he had obtained the method to make salt.
In short.
As he cried, he raised his head and laughed loudly.
The next day.
A salt workshop was erected here.
Then, in just a few days, officials from all over Dai County reported four to five more natural salt mines.
Salt-making workshops were built beside these natural salt mines.
There were five steps to making salt: grinding, dissolving, filtering, evaporating, and removing the crystallized salt from the pot.
Except for the first step, which required a strong person to complete, the other four steps could be completed by women.
That's why.
Liu Xuan recruited a group of women from the nearby villages to work as salt workers.
Salt workers were also provided with food and a monthly salary. They could choose a stone of grain or 30 catties of salt.
In order to increase production efficiency, Liu Xuan used the assembly line production method of later generations.
After observing for a few days and confirming that the assembly line production model was also effective during the Three Kingdoms period, Liu Xuan changed the production model of the cement factory to the assembly line production model.
For a moment!
The speed of cement production had increased by nearly 50%.
Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, it was already August.
During this period of time, the changes in Dai County could be said to be earth-shattering.
The wide cement road had been successfully paved from the big county to the small counties under it. Some places that were progressing faster had even begun to be paved to the towns.
The expansion of the county town had also gradually begun.
Because it involved the planning of the drainage system and sewage system, the expansion of the county was relatively slow.
However, Liu Xuan was not in a hurry.
Because there were still three years before the Yellow Turban Uprising, he had plenty of time.
Not only was Liu Xuan not in a hurry, but he also repeatedly reminded Tian Chou and Jian Yong to plan the city's drainage system.
He didn't want to see the city being flooded one day because the drainage system wasn't perfect.
During this period of time, the total population of Dai County had already reached 440,000. It was estimated that it would not be long before it would break through the 450,000 mark.
The reason why the population could grow so quickly was all thanks to Liu Yu.
When Liu Yu found out about Liu Xuan's big move in Dai County, he personally came to visit Liu Xuan a month ago.
He praised Liu Xuan so much that Liu Xuan's face was almost red.
As she praised, Liu Yu's mood suddenly turned gloomy.
Liu Xuan hurriedly asked. He heard Liu Yu talk about the problem of the people in Youzhou not having enough to eat and being homeless. He said that he was troubled by these refugees.
He didn't care about those refugees. After all, they were the people of the Great Han Dynasty. Liu Yu couldn't bear it, and his conscience couldn't bear it.
However, if he wanted to help those refugees, Youzhou was poor to begin with. Liu Yu did not have much money. Liu Yu could manage the refugees once, but he could not manage them a second time.
Upon hearing this, Liu Xuan said without hesitation that if the refugees were willing to come to Dai County, he was willing to provide them with relief. He was also willing to provide food to prevent the refugees from starving to death on the way.
Hearing Liu Xuan's words, Liu Yu was instantly excited.
He grabbed Liu Xuan's hands shakily and questioned Liu Xuan with red eyes,""Is that true?"
Liu Xuan met Liu Yu's trembling gaze. Without hesitation, he nodded with determination and replied sincerely,""Absolutely!"
Liu Yu was furious. He directly said that he did not need Liu Xuan to provide food for the refugees. He could not help the refugees like Liu Xuan, but he could still pay for their food to go to Dai County.
After that.
With the help and support of Liu Yu, the provincial governor of Youzhou Province, all the refugees in Youzhou Province flocked to Dai Prefecture.
The county governors of the other prefectures and counties under Youzhou's rule did not stop them and gave the refugees the green light to go.
That's why.
The population of Dai County had experienced an explosive growth.
In just a short month, the population had increased by about 100,000.
When Liu Xuan heard about this from Tian Chou, his smile was brilliant!
As the population of Dai County increased, Liu Xuan's reputation began to spread in Youzhou.
In Youzhou Province, the moment Liu Xuan was mentioned, everybody would have the same reaction--love the people like their own children!
Not only Youzhou.
Liu Xuan's reputation of loving his people like his own son also started to spread in some prefectures and counties neighboring Jizhou Province and Bingzhou Province.
! Please vote! He begged for everything! Sob, sob! Sob, sob!
