Three Kingdoms: My Fief Grows 1 Soldier Per Second, a Million Riders Circle the Capital

In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the world was in chaos.

Liu Wei transmigrated to become a prince of the Eastern Han, initially framed by Empress Dowager He and granted the barren and dangero...

Chapter 158 Chule River, at the Foot of Yinshan Mountain

Yao Guangxiao danced with joy, exclaiming, "Huyan Gu once reported that there are 50,000 Han Chinese households scattered along the shore of Wuliangsu Lake!"

"These will be arranged and coordinated by the strategist."

"In short, under my rule, the people who till the land have their fields, the people who live in the houses have their houses, the diligent have their jobs, and the hardworking have their rewards!"

"I will treat the elderly as I would my own, and I will treat the young as I would my own!"

"Light taxes and levies, so that people can live and work in peace and contentment."

"......"

"Ordinary people will no longer suffer from housing, education, and medical care!"

As he spoke, Liu Wei suddenly thought of his previous life and sighed.

Unable to afford medical care, sky-high housing prices, and exorbitantly expensive education costs...

People are afraid to help elderly people who have fallen, exorbitant bride prices make marriage unaffordable, and they dare not have children...

If he hadn't traveled through time, Liu Wei would probably still be living in his small basement apartment, with no hope for tomorrow.

Yao Guangxiao, who was standing to the side, felt a surge of respect upon hearing Liu Wei's series of remarks.

Each of Liu Wei's words is a highly condensed essence of his governance.

Only wise and benevolent rulers throughout history would put the people first.

The people have a scale in their hearts.

Whoever puts the people first, the people will remember him.

"My lord already has the countenance of an emperor!" Yao Guangxiao secretly praised.

However, his thinking seemed to be lagging behind Liu Wei's pace, so he humbly asked for advice:

"My lord, I have a vague understanding of housing and medical care, but I am somewhat confused by the teachings. What are they?"

Liu Wei smiled and said, "Didn't you say that there are few scholars in the four prefectures of Yunzhong, and a severe shortage of talented people who can be recruited to serve as officials?"

"This education aims to enable more people to read and write, and become talented individuals!"

Upon hearing this, Yao Guangxiao immediately shook his head: "It's difficult. This is not the Central Plains, and books are extremely scarce!"

"Even if there are books, there are very few people who can teach, impart knowledge, and resolve doubts."

"If we don't have books, we'll create them ourselves! If we don't have professors, we'll train them!"

As someone who missed out on the nine-year compulsory education, Liu Wei still possesses basic literacy knowledge.

"My officials must absolutely not be illiterate!"

At this moment, a scout came to report: "My lord, there is a large lake blocking our way five miles ahead. Should we detour?"

"Strategist, Commandant Liu!"

"We've arrived at Wuliangsuhai and Chulechuan!"

Liu Wei raised an eyebrow and said loudly.

[Note: The actual Chulechuan refers to the Tumochuan Plain surrounding Hohhot (Yunzhong). For the sake of the novel's plot, it's set on the grassland east of Wuliangsuhai Lake. Please don't criticize.]
