Wei Yuan was unaware of Tang Room's decree, and even if he had known, he wouldn't have taken it seriously.
Just as he had become the Dingxi Provincial Governor from being an ordinary person, he had earned the position of Qingming and Second-rank Jiedu Envoy through his own efforts, not relying on anyone's favor.
Now that Qingming was beginning to expand slowly again, Wei Yuan had countless tasks to attend to. Even just sending people to survey the surrounding terrain was a tremendous workload.
Not to mention remote areas, just surveying the hundred-plus miles outward, expanding from over four hundred miles to six hundred miles, this increase in area was already a terrifying number.
With enough manpower now, and adhering to the principle of not letting people be idle, Wei Yuan organized three hundred thousand people to prepare to cultivate two million acres of land. Once cultivation was completed, it would total eight million acres.
