"As a county under the rule of Youzhou, according to the laws and regulations of the imperial court, it is necessary to take out a part of the money and grain and hand it over to the state capital, which is understandable, but it must be within the prescribed range, and we don't have to pay the extra part. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Chen Zhi immediately made a decision: "If we want to give more than half of the money and grain we have worked so hard to accumulate to Youzhou, how can the local area of Dai County improve?" Besides, Wang Jun's mind is really hard to guess, before I went north, my uncle and Uncle Weng came to remind me to pay attention to Wang Jun, and now when I arrive, the information collected shows that this person is uncertain, if he violates the law again, providing him with money and food, it is tantamount to fueling his heart. ”

Su Liao said: "I'm afraid that this will quickly anger Wang Jun and cause him to suppress him." ”

Chen Zhi heard the words and pondered.

What Su Liao said is a very realistic problem, Chen Zhi is in Daijun at the moment, but if he wants to make a difference, he must take into account Wang Jun's problem, and if he can't solve this problem, it can't be sustainable at all.

Although I didn't come to Daigun-gun for a long time, I was able to collect information and explore the road, and when I arrived, I learned about it from the archives and outside the castle, and realized that although it was desolate and had a small population, it had great potential for development.

The problem is that Wang Jun's problem cannot be solved, let alone unleashing this potential, it may trap Chen Zhi in it.

Thinking about it, someone outside reported that Chen Zi was coming.

Chen Zhi knew that Chen Zi had received the news and came to participate in the analysis, so he asked people to bring him in.

After Chen Zi understood the cause and effect, he said: "According to the current situation, the Xianbei civil war should be true, then Wang Jun should be busy at the moment, is to prepare for the war, although Daijun is located on the edge of Youzhou, but the north is connected to the grassland, the west is blocked by the Xiongnu, and Liu Kun Taishou has a communication, which is the cornerstone of Youzhou's stability, and it is also a bridgehead to resist the Xiongnu and guard against the grassland tribes, Wang Jun may not destroy the Great Wall." ”

Su Liao frowned and said: "Youzhou has a lot of soldiers and horses, and there are soldiers in Daijun, and the knives and instruments equipped in the army are not comparable to those of the county, on the contrary, now in Youzhou, Wang Jun is the first to have heavy soldiers and horses, including several counties in the interior of Daijun, and a large part of its money and grain have been handed over to supply soldiers and horses, otherwise there will be no current situation." ”

When Chen Zhi heard this, he sighed with emotion: "The counties in this place have become the nourishment of Wang Jun's soldiers and horses, and the county where it is located is the barrier of Wang Jun's core land, no wonder there are many people and the population is decreasing year by year." ”

From the moment he arrived in Daigun, he became more aware of the importance of population, so his future actions were based on this.

In the long run, the scope of Daijun is not small, there is a lot of land, although the family occupies a lot of cultivated fertile land, but as long as there is a population, Chen Zhi is confident that he will expand the scope of cultivated land, but if there is no population, all plans will be in vain.

"To attract the population, stability and security are indispensable," after thinking about it, Chen Zhi said to the two masterminds in front of him, "In the future, the struggle within the county of this generation, I hope to limit it to the political level, this is the bottom line, on this bottom line, we can cooperate with the family to a limited extent, but as long as someone exceeds this bottom line, then no matter which side of the person he is, it will not be tolerated!" ”

Su Liao and Chen Zi nodded, didn't ask anything more, and retreated first.

They came here to report the news, and secondly, to figure out Chen Zhi's thoughts, and then to formulate a strategy.

After the two left, Chen Zhi called Yang Song again and said: "Today and tomorrow, more than 100 people will arrive, some of them are light heroes, you pick out some of them, practice first, and the rest of the people will also arrive in the next few days, the first batch of people to arrive in Pengcheng, when there are two hundred, the time is within seven days, I will give you a charter, let you practice with them." ”

"Great! Brother-in-law, wait a minute, I won't let you down! As soon as Yang Song heard this, he became excited, and he came over, as a representative of the Yang family, according to Yang Jie's meaning, he should also have a place in Chen Zhi's staff and become Chen Zhi's right-hand man, but as the time of contact increased, he showed more and more enthusiasm for military family affairs.

After talking with Yang Song a few times, Chen Zhi learned that this in-law did have some attainments in the military family, so he simply pushed the boat down the river and decided to see his quality.

After Yang Song left excitedly, Chen Zhi pondered.

"Now is the beginning of everything is difficult, the key is that there are still a lot of problems, there are Wang Jun's hidden worries above, there are Xiongnu health associations outside, there are clouds of Xianbei War in the north, and there are hidden dangers in the family, plus Wang Quan of the border army, each of which must act as soon as possible, but the combined need for resources, money and manpower is too much, I don't have so many manpower now, and the money and food are not enough, before going north, I prepared some money, most of which is my own industry, but this continuous investment, After all, it's not a thing, it's a situation where you can't make ends meet. ”

The industry Chen Zhi mentioned is actually the many shops, workshops and fields that the Chen family in Pengcheng divided into Chen Zhi's branch, and a large part of them is still obtained from the Bai family, and a lot has been accumulated over the past year.

Chen Zhi returned to his hometown before and took out a lot of his family's assets and brought them over, after all, so many people came with him, and they always had to eat, and they couldn't do it without money.

The Chen family and the father-in-law Yang Jie also have funding.

"The silver taels, money and grain, reasonable distribution, can not last for a year, so the matter of open source has to be put on the table as soon as possible, fortunately, there are two ink people, equivalent to engineers, and many craftsmen, and then the plan, can be put on the table, what to do is to understand the characteristics of this generation of counties, consider which project to use, the production of new trading goods, the face of the Central Plains or grassland, my one-year operation in Luoyang, the contacts and influence left behind, can be effectively supplemented to help the products of the county open the market......"

Yes, Chen Zhi's plan is to take advantage of the time difference to make a high value-added product, and then target the high-end market.

NEXCOM's high-end market is very clear, that is, the high-grade family and the high-grade scholars!

After Chen Zhi's recovery, most of the people he came into contact with were constantly emphasizing their demeanor and the meaning of famous people, and the things they pursued were more luxurious, which was undoubtedly an opportunity.

Interestingly, Chen Zhi itself, after a year of precipitation, has become a representative of the high-end market of the New Han Dynasty, and to some extent, has even led the fashion more than once.

"But the premise is to find out the current financial situation of Daijun."

Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still, so he simply ate something, so he went directly to the yamen, summoned the county shaofu Wang Yu, Bi Cao, Cang Cao, etc., who were in charge of finance, and asked them to take out the file again, and read it carefully again.

The more he looked at it, the more Chen Zhi's brows furrowed.

In fact, the tax policy originally set by the new Han Dynasty was to "accumulate grain to support the people", in short, to develop production and accumulate grain, which was undoubtedly beneficial to the people, but under the influence of the wealthy family, it would eventually change.

"Daijun's financial revenue, as Su Liao said, is mainly from Guanjin, border trade commissions, as well as the mutual market directly organized by the government group, and the convoy under the cooperation with the family, but I really didn't expect that Daijun's food is actually insufficient, and it needs to be dispatched from other places! No wonder I had to go to the granary in the city to observe, and those people's expressions would change, and the number of grains in the warehouse that was often closed was very problematic! ”

He really didn't expect that such a county would be short of food!

When Chen Zhi first entered the city, he inspected the granary, but at that time he expected that the Xiongnu might come to invade, so he had to plan for the worst and needed grain to hold the city, but he didn't think much about it.

However, with the gradual understanding of the financial money and grain of Dai County, Chen Zhi realized the more and more serious problems.

"Judging from the file, the situation in Daijun is not good, the population is lost, the land is barren, but the business and trade exchanges are increasing, and the tax on customs and Tianjin is also increasing, otherwise the land area cannot be valued by Wang Jun, but the grain harvest is getting less and less year by year, and the regular liquidation is almost impossible to maintain!"

He couldn't help but shake his head as he recalled the previous patrol outside the city.

"But there are actually a lot of fields outside the city, if you really collect land rent, so that the grain in the granary will not continue to decrease, the main reason is that these fields are owned by the family and the wealthy family, and the money and grain are mainly handed over to the family! The harvest of the imperial court is decreasing year by year, which is the result of the continuous annexation of the fields outside the city! The family is rich, but the government is short of food! In this way, it is impossible to control the source of tax when the position is closed. ”

The establishment of Chang Ping can be traced back to the third emperor of the New Han Dynasty, Ruizong Liu Chen, the filial piety emperor, the fifth son of Liu Chan, who reigned for twenty-one years.

During his reign, the Han Dynasty had not yet unified the south, but many systems were gradually improved, including the Changping system.

On the one hand, the existence of Changping can maintain the grain reserves of the dynasty, and on the other hand, it can protect agriculture, stabilize the changes in grain prices in the market, stop illegal businessmen from hoarding and cracking down on speculation.

But now, the local family is powerful, and it has long squeezed the operation space of Chang Liquidation, which in turn has begun to erode the warehouse, at least in Dai County.

"Just now this grain reserve, maintaining the operation of the yamen is the limit, not to mention raising troops, improving people's livelihood, and even when the land area is in power, every few months, he has to buy grain from Wang Jun, of course, this is also one of the excuses for him to send money to Wang Jun, but even if I don't give it to Wang Jun, I have to find a way to reverse the situation, at least in the first year, I still have to buy some food reserves, but where does this money come from? Rely on the ones I brought, a drop in the bucket! Moreover, in the name of the government, it is easy to be controlled by the superiors, and they don't understand how to plan with all their might to make wedding dresses for others. ”

Putting down the file, Chen Zhi pondered for a while, but finally said with a smile: "Well, since the family is powerful, and the yamen is constrained by Wang Jun and the imperial court, then I might as well fight poison with poison and use the family's methods to deal with them, am I not also a family?" ”

Thinking of this, Chen Zhi instructed: "Go and call Shecao, Shi Peng, and Qian Peng to come over." ”
