When it was, no one thought that he had any other choice except Cui Geng himself. However, in fact, for Cui Geng, who has the memory of later generations, it is not so difficult to turn the tables.

He secretly pondered in his heart, Originally, I didn't have much interest in Jing Zhaoyin's duties, but since your old ugly ghost Wu Yizong was unkind first, then don't blame me Cui Erlang for being unjust. Hmph, I want the Chang'an Cup, I want to chase the ancestors, and I want Jing Zhaoyin's position!

Thinking of this, he shook his spirits, knelt down on his knees, and said, "Your Majesty, you agree to the request of the King of Hanoi to exchange the benefits of the Chang'an Cup for the removal of the water mill on the Zhengbai Canal. Is this to ensure that Chang'an's food supply is sufficient and stable? ”

"That's true."

"Then if Weichen also comes up with an idea, it can ensure that Chang'an's food supply is sufficient and stable. Ignorance...... Can Your Majesty not return the Chang'an Cup to the government and continue to posthumously seal his father? ”

Wu Zetian was surprised: "What method do you have?" ”

"Wechen has already written a note, please read it for Your Majesty!"

After speaking, Cui Geng took out the pre-written piece from his sleeve pocket.

This recital is really not prepared for Wu Yizong, but a recital written by Cui Geng in order to solve the food supply problem in Chang'an.

The solution is to improve the water transportation.

For any dynasty, Cao Yun is a major event, and since Cui Geng is a minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is really natural for him to contribute to the imperial court. On the other hand, because of the difficult luck, tens of thousands of people in Chang'an starved to death in the next few decades. Since Cui Geng is Jing Zhaoyin, it is impossible for him to sit idly by.

So, how can we improve our luck?

Cui Geng didn't think of any clever schemes, mainly using the wisdom of later generations.

First of all, it is to solve the problem of natural insurance in Sanmenxia.

The reason why this place is called Sanmenxia is because of the good river, which is separated by two hills, forming three gates: the ghost gate, the god gate and the human gate. Below the three gates, the reefs are all over the place, the water is turbulent, and the slightest carelessness of the ship is the situation of the boat being destroyed and people killed.

Cui Geng's solution to this is: endure it. Sanmenxia is too dangerous, I'm afraid, so I simply don't pass here.

He planned to divide several large granaries on the way from Luoyang to Chang'an. The boat that walks on the Yangtze River is nothing more than the Yellow River. The boats that walked in the Yellow River did not reach Weishui, and all of them were transferred through the granary. As for the most difficult section of Sanmenxia...... Direct ground transportation.

To put it simply, Cui Geng changed the system of transporting one ship to the end to segmented transportation.

Don't underestimate this small change, in history, Prime Minister Pei Yaoqing used this method to improve Caoyun, and delivered millions of stone of grain to Chang'an a year, solving Chang'an's food shortage.

After bypassing Sanmenxia, the bottleneck of the entire Cao Yun is Weishui. There are many shallow waters, twists and turns, it is difficult for boats to travel, and the traffic volume in a year is more than 100 stones at most.

There is no ingenious way to solve this problem, Cui Geng still adopted the old wisdom of later generations: rebuild the Guangtong Canal.

In fact, Weishui is difficult to walk, as early as hundreds of years ago, it attracted the attention of those in power. In order to solve this problem, the Han Dynasty excavated hundreds of miles of "Cao Canal". By the time of the Great Sui Dynasty, on this basis, the "Guangtong Canal" was excavated.

It's just that now, the Guangtong Canal is in disrepair, and its transportation capacity is not as good as Weishui.

As long as the Guangtong Canal is repaired, according to historical records, four million stones can be transported annually. Of course, four million stones are not only grain, but also goods from all states in the world. The food is sufficient, the world's wealth and goods gather, only in this way, Chang'an is worthy of the name of the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Compared with the grand plan proposed by Cui Geng, Wu Yizong's little work in destroying the water mill is really nothing.

After Wu Zetian finished reading Cui Geng's recital, his eyes could almost shine, and he said, "Cui Aiqing, are you really sure that you can transport four million stones a year?" ”

Cui Geng said firmly: "The minister is sure!" ”

"That being the case, there should be no problem in posthumously sealing your father. Also, uh......"

Wu Zetian thought for a while, and said carefully: "I have words first, and I will assess Cui Aiqing and the King of Hanoi from three aspects. Now, the results of this assessment have become clear: the first question, to rectify the public security in Chang'an and Wannian counties, Cui Aiqing won. The second question, dismantling the water mill, the king of Hanoi won. As for the third question, is it possible to solve the Sanmenxia natural risk...... Your plan is just to avoid the Sanmenxia natural risk, not a solution. Therefore, the battle of Jing Zhaoyin is not over yet. ”

Wu Yizong didn't know what a grand plan Cui Geng had just put forward, and said, "Please also ask Your Majesty to come up with another topic to decide the ownership of Jing Zhaoyin's position." ”

"Another question?" Wu Zetian said meaningfully: "That's true, Cui Geng listened!" ”

"Wechen is here!"

"I order you to be the water and land transport envoy, and the military and civilians of all states along the way should obey orders! The required funds, written in the states, must not be violated! If two years later, Cao Yun reached 4 million stones, he would withdraw from Yongzhou Mu and leave Jing Zhaoyin alone. As for now...... Eleven counties west of Yongzhou Muzhi Suzaku Street, and eleven counties east of Jingzhao Yinzhi Suzaku Street! ”

"Wechen obeys!" Cui Geng had already prepared in his heart and knelt down to thank him.

Wu Sansi was anxious at that time, and said: "The function of this transfer envoy is unparalleled in the previous dynasty. His Majesty's order is also too vague. What does it mean that the military and civilians of all states along the way should obey orders? Could it be that starting from Yangzhou, dozens of state capitals on the two ~ shores of Cao Yun are all within the jurisdiction of Cao Yun Yun Envoy? ”

Wu Zetian said: "Yes, it is true. However, the orders of the land and water transshipment envoys must be related to the transportation of water and water, and they must not interfere at will. ”

Although there are 360 states in the Great Zhou, these dozens of state capitals related to Cao Yun are the most prosperous state capitals. Yangzhou, Luoyang, and Chang'an are among them.

Even with this limitation, the power of this land and water transshipment envoy is quite large. The reason is very simple, it has to do with Cao Yun, and there are no strict standards for this thing. Cui Geng wants to meddle in civil affairs, and completely says that the person concerned is a member of the Cao Gang. If you want to meddle in military politics, directly mobilize hundreds of troops, or even impeach a certain officer, who can say whether it is right or not?

Wu Sansi said: "Then the power of this water and land transfer envoy is simply more than a pacification envoy, and he is chasing the post of prime minister." ”

Wu Zetian nodded and said, "Transporting four million stones a year is related to the stability of the imperial court. If Cui Aiqing's words are not exaggerated, what does it matter if he adds a Tongluan Taige Pingzhang matter? ”

"What? Four million stones? ”

"That's true."

Then, Wu Zetian ordered people to read Cui Geng's recital. This time everyone lost their temper. What does four million stones mean? The people present are all human spirits, it is simply too clear.

In addition, it can be said that whoever sits in this position must be the prime minister, otherwise he will not be able to suppress the scene.

Not to mention anything else, the assassins along the way are all third-grade officials, you are not the prime minister, do people listen to you?

As for saying, don't let Cui Geng pick up this cheap? No kidding. You can do it! The current grain is more than 100,000 stones, and you will carry out Cui Geng's plan to increase the transportation to four million stones? None of the people present dared to stand up and pack the tickets.

As for Cui Geng's age? This plan was successful in two years, and by then Cui Gengdu was in his thirties, and it was not completely impossible.

Could it be that there is really no reason to stop Cui Geng from embarking on this road of green clouds now? More than 30 pairs of prime ministers are really shocking!

For a moment, everyone looked at each other, and their eyes were full of horror.

Suddenly, Wu Sansi rolled his eyes and said, "Weichen still has a question...... What if two years later, Cui Gengda achieves the goal of transporting four million stones in an adult? ”
