"Huan Gong, the income is still very good!" Wei Dexian said to Qi Xiaobai on the side.

All the casinos in Yingqiu City have been closed except for him and Qi Xiaobai, and if the business is not good, there will be no reason.

Qi Xiaobai next opened green buildings and casinos, ready to open them in other cities in Qi country.

It's just that the emperor of other cities is far away, and Qi Xiaobai knows that when he opens this kind of casino, someone will definitely use him to make money for himself.

And what Qi Xiaobai has to do is to prevent this kind of thing from happening, which has to rely on the secret guard, but the use of the secret guard is a big consumption.

Normally, Qi Xiaobai is reluctant to use the secret guard, although the secret guard is his most loyal dog, but the cost consumption is relatively high.

Using the words of the official messenger of the Qi State, Qi Xiaobai couldn't believe it, after all, many officials had taken refuge in the Shi clan.

Although there are still many scholars who have taken refuge in Qi Xiaobai's disciples recently, and even the largest family in Qi country, the 'Kong family', has chosen to follow Qi Xiaobai, but the cake touched by Qi Xiaobai is too big, and in the face of interests, many people still want to try it.

Since the failure of that rebellion, the scholars no longer have the ability to confront Qi Xiaobai head-on.

You can only move the knife behind your back, of course, the moving knife doesn't hurt much when it aligns with Xiaobai, but the rebound is very large.

Qi Xiaobai nodded: "The benefits are very good, that's good, salt mines, casinos, green buildings, this can bring a steady stream of income to the treasury of Qi State!" ”

If you have money, Qi Xiaobai can go to war, and if you have money, Qi Xiaobai can once again wrestle the princes of the empire.

As for the grain, Qi Xiaobai is not worried at all, although the territory of Qi is not large, the land is fertile, and the annual grain can be said to be the most among the princes.

In addition to the huge economy of Qi State, Qi Xiaobai can also go to other countries to buy grain.

Although in this era of war, food is the most important, but the economy can not be less, after all, you have money, you can give your army a boost to the equipment, you can take the money, reward the army, stimulate the combat effectiveness of the army, and even you can buy meat to improve the food of the soldiers.

When the princes could only eat steamed buns, the Qi army could often eat meat once, and the good food could also greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the army.

After the lessons of the First World War in the Central Plains, Qi Xiaobai wanted to make the treasury very full this time, and also give Qi a steady stream of economic income, so that Qi's logistics were very solid and stable.

Of course, in the process of reform, Qi Xiaobai also bought a large amount of food from other places where the maritime merchants came.

Qi Xiaobai wanted to see if there was any food suitable for Qi that was easy to grow, and with this purchase, Qi Xiaobai got potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn.

These grains were easier to grow and produce than rice and wheat in the past, so Qi Xiaobai began to promote the cultivation of potatoes and sweet potatoes, as well as corn.

In order to promote the cultivation of potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn, Qi Xiaobai spent a huge amount of money in the national treasury to purchase this kind of seeds, so that people could receive them for free and grow this kind of thing.

Because these are free, many people go to collect the seeds, of course, Qi Xiaobai can't really give them for free, and when they have a harvest, the grain tax they pay is twice as much as usual.

But even so, there are still many people who are willing to receive the seeds, and there are still many people who cross Qi Xiaobai as the Holy Monarch.

Qi Xiaobai still knows that food is more important than money, money is important, but food is the foundation of life.

Qi Xiaobai looked at Wei Dexian: "Give me this excerpt of Qi Correction!" ”

Qi Jie sent a lot of excerpts to Qi Xiaobai, but Qi Xiaobai didn't look at any of them, mainly because Qi Jie gave Qi Xiaobai too many excerpts, at least two hundred.

Qi Xiaobai didn't read any of them, and planned to wait until he was done with other things to read, although Qi Xiaobai didn't look at it, but he also knew what was written on Qi Jie's fold.

It is nothing more than a matter for Le Yi, he has rebuilt the Qingzhou Legion, and it is even larger than before, and the Qingzhou Legion at this time has 500,000 people according to him.

Of course, the Southern Hebei Army was completely lost, and of course Qi Jie was able to establish such a huge Qingzhou Army, which was indispensable to Qi Xiaobai's funding.

His excerpt is to hope that Qi Xiaobai can give him a good logistics grain and grass guarantee, and he can lead the army to the Northern Expedition to Leyi.

When he first saw this excerpt, Qi Xiaobai still wanted to try it, after all, Le Yi's holding of the strongest cavalry legion in the empire was a problem in his heart.

If he doesn't get rid of it, Qi Xiaobai is still a little uncomfortable.

So Qi Xiaobai wanted to agree to Qi Jie's idea, but was stopped by Guan Zhong, who told Qi Xiaobai that he had a way to kill Le Yi with the least loss, but the time had not yet come.

So Qi Xiaobai rejected Qi Jiu, so Qi Jiu kept writing excerpts and asked Qi Xiaobai to give him a guarantee.

Qi Jie Northern Expedition Le Yi did not ask Qi Xiaobai for money, because he had operated in southern Hebei and had enough small money, and with Qi Xiaobai's funding, there was no problem with military salaries.

As for the grain and grass, he is also very sufficient, and he can start a war, after all, most of the grain and grass in southern Hebei is given to Qi Jiao.

What Qi Jie wants is Qi Xiaobai's guarantee that his logistics are intact, because Qi Jie is afraid of the war with Le Yi and falls into a protracted war, and his food and grass are insufficient.

Therefore, his strategy is to fight against Le Yi, if he has an advantage, he will destroy Le Yi, and completely solve the trouble in the north of Qi Xiaobai, if it is a disadvantage, then fall into a stalemate war, and use Qi Xiaobai's grain and grass to consume Le Yi alive.

This strategy Guan Zhong stopped, and Tian Dan and Sun Bin also disapproved of this series of generals.

They all know that Qi Jiao has the advantage, destroys Le Yi, and the disadvantage fights a stalemate, but they feel that what if Qi Jie does not achieve a stalemate and let Le Yi break through his defense?

It is possible to plunge the Qi State into civil strife, which is different from the Shi rebellion, where the soldiers of the Shi rebellion are a rabble, and the army under Le Yi is the strongest cavalry corps in the empire.

So what they were afraid of was that Qi would not be able to block the impact of Le Yi's cavalry and let the northern defense line be lost.

Because of the opposition of the ministers, Qi Xiaobai gave up on this matter, of course, Qi Xiaobai also thought about it for a while, what Tian Dan, Sun Bin and others said was not unreasonable, not to mention that Guan Zhong also assured Qi Xiaobai that he had a full grasp and killed Le Yi with the least loss.

Therefore, there is no need for Qi Xiaobai Jue to use these risky offensive methods to eliminate Le Yi.

Wei Dexian gave Qi Xiaobai's excerpt to Qi Xiaobai, and Qi Xiaobai drew a cross sign for him to express his approval and disagree.

As soon as Qi Wei Dexian gave the fold to Qi Xiaobai, a eunuch came in outside: "Duke Huan, Tian Dan's strategist 'Shaoqing' Tian Ji asks to see!" ”

Qi Xiaobai was stunned, this Tian Ji Qi Xiaobai was a little impressed, Qi Xiaobai intuitively felt that Tian Ji was an idler raised by Tian Dan.
