Is it? Gongwei felt that the current embarrassing situation was not suitable for a long time to be the head of an army in the north, so he chose to return to Nanling in order to avoid suspicion, and the north was under the command of the deputy general appointed by Lu Zhe in the past.

The candidate for the deputy general of the Northern Army was originally Mei Kai, but before he could go over, he was transferred south to fight, and he did a stupid thing with Su Lie in the Battle of Changsha County, and after being demoted to a military marquis, he made meritorious service and became a partial general, obviously he was not qualified to serve as the deputy general of the first army.

"Who is the candidate for Captain?" Lu Zhe was silent for a while, and then finally asked.

Gongwei seemed to be relieved because he was about to return to Nanling, and heard Lu Zhe think about the recommended candidates very seriously.

Kuaitong and Ji Bu showed a wry smile when they looked at each other, they thought that Gongwei had really made a mistake in this step, Lu Zhe had never been a person with a small stomach, and he would not bury resentment because of a wrong thing, especially it was not Gongwei himself who did something wrong, what Gongwei should do now is to perform his duties tremblingly in the north, and he should not ask to return to Nanling, which is tantamount to expanding and strictly enlarging an originally dispensable thing, which is obviously to bury a rift.

As the monarch of one force, Lu Zhe has shown his tolerance many times, and repeatedly reminded the Gongwei not to come back to Nanling to serve in the north, but the Gongwei has repeatedly insisted, so why bother?

But fortunately, the master of his family agreed to the request of the communist lieutenant to come back, but he asked him to propose a candidate, such a crack is not too big, and it can be repaired, I only hope that after the arrival of the communist commander, there will be no trouble, otherwise a member of their force will sink because of this.

Gongwei thought for a long time and didn't come up with a good candidate, and hesitated: "Mei Kai is the deputy general set by the lord?" ”

Lu Zhe will not make great use of Mei Li and Su Lie in the near future, and it is difficult for him to say that Mei Li and Su Lie did the matter of granting military power privately in the Battle of Changsha County.

"General Mei Hong has other military affairs, I'm afraid he can't get away." Kuaitong explained softly beside him.

"That ......" Gongwei has always been in the north, and he doesn't know what happened in the Battle of Changsha County, but he only knows that he killed nearly 500,000 Baiyue. He shook his head with a wry smile: "I really don't know who to recommend, so it's up to the Lord to decide." ”

Fake. The lieutenant has been in charge of the north intermittently for more than a year, and there will be no trustworthy generals in his hands, but he is obviously not good at recommending anyone to avoid suspicion.

Lu Zhe pondered for a while: "Wu Liang was good in the battle of Ba County, and he also made meritorious contributions in the battle of Changsha County. Just let him go. ”

Then the matter was settled.

Luo Shao was very happy for Wu Liang in his heart, and he was also happy for himself, after all, Wu Liang created a meritorious service under him, since Wu Liang was considered by Lu Zhe to have a lot of credit, then wouldn't his credit be greater?

"I know you don't stay in Nanling for long, so you haven't bought any mansions." Lu Zhe looked at the co-lieutenant with a relaxed face, and said with blame and puzzlement: "After returning from the Southern Expedition, I moved into this unbuilt palace city. Obviously, the mansion in the city will not go back to live, since you want to stay in Nanling, you will move there. ”

This time, the lieutenant did not postpone and respectfully thanked him with a "hey".

What kind of bullshit is it that after making sure that he has a firm foothold, a group of guys who don't have a sense of zài came out and jumped up and down, and even the co-lieutenant also played such a play, which made Lu Zhe s happy mood worse.

They also discussed some follow-up to the war in the south, and after determining the spring ploughing, they took out manpower to go south to build roads, and the most urgent ones were not Minnan County and Nanhai County, but Sima Xin's attack on the two major roads on the south side of Lingnan.

"The men sent helped Wei train 60,000 new troops. South Korea is forty thousand. The new armies of the two countries, in addition to lacking some weapons, are able to act as buffer zones. Lu Zhe looked left and right: "Recently, some of our army has been replacing weapons, and those weapons that have been eliminated have been asked if Wei and Han need to buy them." ”

The iron weapons are replaced by the Praetorian Guard. The number has been made up of 5,000, and as the follow-up molds keep up and the craftsmen become proficient, there will inevitably be a corresponding increase in the amount produced each month. It will already be able to maintain the production of 3,000 iron soldiers next month, and it will reach 5,000 next month. After half a year, after the adjustment of each Yuecheng is completed, and then there are mountains of iron ingots hoarded in advance, and the monthly production capacity calculation result can reach 30,000.

In a word. With the passage of time, Lu Zhe's army is destined to be replaced with iron weapons, and the bronze weapons that have been eliminated have been used old, and it is obviously not suitable to re-store, Lu Zhe means to simply sell some appropriately to Wei and Han.

Xiao He raised his hands in approval, as the ruler who manages civil affairs, he couldn't help but tremble when he looked at the wealth that slipped out every month.

The eight counties, now they can use the three first occupied territories of Nanjun, Cangwu County, and Hengshan County, and although the other Jiujiang County and Lujiang County have been occupied, they have not yet recovered from the trauma of the war, and as for Minnan County, Nanhai County, and Changsha County, they are even more suspended.

As an administrative county, Nanjun has a sufficient population of agriculture, minerals, and manufacturing under the strong control of Lu Zhe, and is the best and most average one of the developments.

Hengshan County was only revived after the military town was dismantled, but because there were no commendable specialties in the county. Hengshan County is mostly mountainous and algae land, and the acres of land that can be cultivated are not many in the counties, so they can only be inclined to the handicraft industry.

However, the territory of Cangwu County is very important to Lu Zhe's forces, the Wuling area within it is widely distributed with minerals, the northern area of Linyuan, and the area to the west and south are all plains, after cutting, burning and other combing methods, this year's spring ploughing acres of land reached 600,000 hectares, if there are no natural disasters and man-made disasters, Cangwu County can contribute to Lu Zhe during the autumn harvest accounted for 40% of the grain output under his rule.

Because of the short time of the rise, too much production capacity has not had time to plan and adjust, and the people have not been able to recover from the war, there are really not many things that Lu Zhe's side can sell to the outside world. And Lu Zhe needs too many goods, such as horses, cattle and other livestock, cloth, silk, grain and other things, and there are too many kinds of items purchased from outside, and he really spends money at a speed like running water. It is simply that there are a lot of copper mines under Lu Zhe's rule, otherwise how could it be possible to buy goods from outside and fight so many wars in a row.

Xiao He has been thinking about how to reverse this unhealthy state of only going in and out recently, and he also found that there are more numismatic systems, more money is spent, and a lot of money is issued.

Now there is no such concept of inflation, and the economic situation under Lu Zhe's rule is not critical to a certain extent, but there is more money and less goods, and everyone is rushing to buy similar items, which leads to the increase in the price of such items, which is unavoidable.

There are many ways to make the economy healthy, and now is not the time when you can buy things with a single banknote, those coins are copper, and copper is only used for so many purposes nowadays that it has never been devalued.

"Mr. Xiao is talking about the overflow of purchasing power and the shortage of goods, right?" Lu Zhe quickly understood, and he smiled: "Don't worry about the depreciation of coins, if the coins overflow, the society will melt the coins by itself and make ornaments and tools." Mr. Hsiao's concern is that a large number of coins are melted down, and there are not enough coins to circulate. ”

As the frequency of wars decreases, the manufacturing industry in the territory will definitely recover, and once the goods in the manufacturing industry recover, it will be a situation of insufficient money.

Lu Zhe vaguely remembered that the previous dynasties had not enough copper, and he was not sure whether it was because the amount of copper used in the previous dynasties was too much, or whether the land of China itself lacked copper mines. However, he remembered in his heart that there were three large-scale copper mines under his rule, thirty-six medium-sized copper mines, and hundreds of small copper mines. In their generation, there is no need to worry about the lack of copper, and it is estimated that it will be necessary to wait for copper coins to be widely accepted, and there are too many copper coins circulating or hidden in the market, at least one or two hundred years before there will be a shortage of them.

One or two hundred years, that's too long, too long, Lu Zhe is not a person who does not understand economics at all, he has long prepared a "gold, silver and copper" three-tier system plan, as long as the time is ripe, it will be promulgated, with the carry of gold, silver and copper, the system of equal value is produced, and the bulk transaction has gold, silver and copper as a small currency, so it is enough to maintain a stable economic structure for at least five hundred years.

"Uh......" Xiao He was a little confused, he didn't understand the economics of what kind of carry was completely understood: "Is this okay?" ”

Lu Zhe nodded seriously: "Of course, the lack of copper coins is due to the fact that there is no higher value currency on them. ”

He was thinking about whether to change the Qin system of half a tael to the five baht money of the Han Dynasty, after all, the current half tael is really too big, and the system of five baht money has been used until the Ming Dynasty and even "I am the Qing Dynasty", which has been proved to be the most suitable "amount".

"It needs to be restructured, but take your time, and don't rush it for the time being." Lu Zhe touched his chin.

Xiao He needs to understand, how can he be in power if he doesn't understand this? That's why I've been asking.

"Copper coins can be changed to be lighter, such as 5 baht of 2~3 grams. Oh, and 1 tael is equal to fifty grams. Then one and a half taels is ten five-baht coins. Gold and silver coins can be proportioned, with one silver coin worth 1,000 five-baht coins and one gold coin worth 10 silver coins. "It's very simple, there's nothing too complicated at all, Lu Zhe just opened his mouth.

It is very simple knowledge for Lu Zhe, a traveler, but it may not be for people now, so that not only Xiao He was dumbfounded when he heard it, but everyone present looked at Lu Zhe with a look of hell, and didn't know what to say for a long time. (To be continued......)
