The arrival of three million stone rice, of course, could not save all the victims.

After all, the number of people affected by the disaster is too large, unless more than 30 million stone of grain is transferred, and the imperial court thinks of a way, this disaster can be resolved. But its arrival can solve some urgent needs to some extent.

If it is in the form of porridge in disaster sheds, at least so much food can make more than a million people live.

Although this catastrophe cannot be saved, the nature of having it and not having it can be said to be completely different.

In the past, because Wang Ju migrated people overseas, some officials were very dissatisfied, but they were afraid that Wang Ju, a madman, would work hard, and the emperor would stop talking, so they pretended not to see it.

This time, however, it was a joy.

Even if some people are removed, the people who live on this food can make up for it.

But it has nothing to do with the extravagance that Zhangton is referring to, what Zhangton is referring to is the cost of transportation.

In the Song Dynasty, large sea ships could carry 5,000 materials, that is, more than 600 tons of cargo, and could carry 5 or 600 people. Medium-sized seagoing vessels are 1,000 to 2,000 and can carry 2 to 300 people. There are also some small drilling ships for special purposes, which can carry 100 people.

As well as a kind of extra-large sea ship Mulan boat, the boat is like a huge room, the sail is like hanging above the sky, the rudder is several zhang long, hundreds of people in a boat, accumulating a year's grain, raising pigs and making wine in it, and putting life and death outside the degree. That is, by taking this boat, you no longer have to be afraid of strong winds and waves, but you are afraid of running aground.

That's an exaggeration, and these extraordinarily large ships are also afraid of major typhoons.

It can only be said that the larger the ship, the safer it is, which is why most of the shipwrecks excavated in later generations are medium-sized seagoing ships of less than 500 tons.

The carrying capacity of such a sea vessel reaches 1,000 tons, and if it is increased. It can carry about 1,500 tons.

But the bigger the ship. the higher the cost. Like the average medium-sized seagoing vessel, the cost is several thousand. The cost of this large magnolia boat can reach more than 20,000 yuan!

However, when the ship is built, it must be maintained, and it will cost some money to maintain it once every two or three years, plus the salary of the sailor's boatman, and it is intended to be used for twenty years, once a year, but twenty voyages. and the risk at sea, at least seven or eight thousand yuan at a time to maintain its cost.

Wang Ju said that there are more than 200 ships, loaded with more than 3 million stones of grain, which are undoubtedly large sea ships, and even have extra-large magnolia boats.

If calculated according to the cost, the cost of so many ships loaded with grain at one time will reach more than one million guan, or even nearly two million guan.

It's too extravagant, indeed.

What's even more amazing is that. So much grain was donated to the imperial court by the maritime merchants free of charge.

Actually, this navigation. Everyone also knows that Wang Ju has a foot in it, but I believe that Wang Ju only has one kick, it can't be all Wang Ju's, just the cost of so many ships, Wang Ju can't afford it.

I don't know how Wang Ju persuaded these maritime merchants.

How exactly to convince, Wang Ju did not write, but wrote about the source of these grains.

Since last year, Wang Ju saw that the drought continued, and he was afraid that something would happen, so he secretly prepared, but it was not only the overseas that migrated these people, even if there were countless "borderlands", it was impossible to produce so much food. Therefore, from the end of last year to the beginning of this year, a large amount of grain was raised from Lingnan and Jiaozhi. Then he ordered the maritime merchants to take a righteous action and send these grains to the Central Plains.

However, because of the large size of the ship, the general port could not enter, so it could only be divided into two batches, one group went to Runzhou, not to Hangzhou, saving the distance. Then it was moved to river boats, crossed the Yangtze River, and transported from the Grand Canal to various places.

Another batch was shipped to the port of Michigan, and then from Mizhou to the disaster areas.

This Wang Ju didn't care, and asked the imperial court to immediately send people to arrange it.

Finally, he wrote that if the disaster continues, it may be possible that when autumn comes, a batch of grain will be transferred from the Wa Kingdom and Goryeo, but these two countries are not large grain producers, so the quantity will not be as large as this time.

Wang Qi said: "This son is prescient. ”

No matter what means he used to persuade the maritime merchants, but last winter, everyone was busy collecting money. Who would have thought of preparing food in advance to prevent the drought from persisting? Moreover, this persuasion of maritime merchants to take the initiative to do good deeds is also a skill.

The businessmen pursued profits, let them spend so much money and donate so much food, although Wang Ju did not say it, but it was not easy to think about it.

Such talents are undoubtedly too wasteful in Quanzhou.

The most interesting thing is that Wang Anshi seems to be intentional, since Wang Ju went to the south, it is almost as if there is no such person.

I won't mess with you anyway, but you don't want me to mention you.

In any case, the state has made mistakes in employing personnel.

Wang Anshi didn't make a sound, maybe he didn't take Wang Jue's words to heart at all, but was thinking about how to arrange the three million stone rice.

Zeng Bu made a round, picked up the topic, and said: "Overseas is the south, where the corn and mutton come?" ”

There is wheat in the south, but can millet be grown in the south? Besides, it's overseas, further south than Guangzhou, can you shepherd sheep?

Shen Kuo said: "I know a little bit about this, in the past two years, I have exchanged several letters with Wang Ju, and talked about some mathematical topics, because the earth is round. Further south, it will be hotter and densely jungled. Further south, however, the temperature is gradually dropping. It's just the opposite of my dynasty, we have winter here and summer there. It's summer on our side, and winter on that side. Because of the sugar business, Wang Ju sent a few servants to the south, and he also paid attention to overseas, and when his servants talked to the maritime merchants, they told Wang Ju's theory. Some maritime merchants actually believed it, so they sent a drill wind boat all the way to the south. Then I found a continent that seemed to be three times the size of my dynasty, but it was rarely inhabited. This is what Wang Ju called the Borderland. However, it is rich in coral, as well as some jade, as well as copper and iron deposits. This is the story of the migration to the south. That's where the corn and sheep came from. ”

"So big?" Zhao asked.

"Your Majesty, although it is big, and Wang Ju said that there is more than one big island, there are many islands that are not small, although there are some indigenous people living on them, because of backwardness, it is not harmful. It's just too far away from me, thousands of miles away. Shen Kuo said seriously.

Shen Kuo agreed with the pressure of the seafarers to evacuate the people, but sent officials to operate overseas. Shen Kuo disagreed. The world is so big. Can the Song Dynasty manage it? The reason why the river and northwest are operated is for the sake of the country's security. What does the other side of the ocean have to do with the security of the Song Dynasty?

But Zhao Ji continued to think about it, and he was still a little unhappy, in such a large area, there are few people who are migrating now, but after reproduction, sooner or later the country will be established.

A country made up of the Song people. But not the Song Dynasty.

How can this be happy?

However, this is still early, and it is too far away for Zhao Ji to speak. He thought in his heart, it's really not good, let Wang Ju go to Beijing to report on his work, and ask. This time, no one questioned him, and he was about to be able to enter Beijing. So he changed the subject and asked, "Is the earth really round?" ”

"Maybe." Shen Kuo said, otherwise he couldn't explain.

"No wonder Wang Ju encouraged the people to migrate." Zhang Dian said. Since it's borderland, it's so big. Why are the people of the Song Dynasty restless and the land becoming more and more tense?

After a while, the business is important. Discussions began on how to arrange the food.

But the actual earth is round, so a stalk is laid.

Immediately, Wang Anshi will be miserable by Sima Guang.

But in Sima Guang's eyes, it is "the country has two kings, and the world will perish".

However, why was Sima Guang able to overthrow Wang Anshi, a natural disaster!

If we can use science to explain the phenomenon of drought and flood, then we will break Sima Guang's proposition. But in order for everyone to accept this scientific argument, there must be some strong evidence.

Then this square is the best evidence.

At least it can prove that Wang Ju's upcoming intermediate math book theory is correct.

This is a post-move, which has to be placed after the autumn, and with the arrival of the second batch of grain, it will be cast together.

After Wang Ju bubbled, he dived again.

Sima Guang was also bubbling.

To be precise, the arrival of these three million stone grains has solved part of the problem. But the disaster continues, and the food crisis is still ongoing.

Sima Guang played a play.

The money from the seedlings was widely dispersed, so that the people were increasingly in debt, and the county officials had no income.

The burden on the people is heavy, but the government has no income? So where did the three or four million yuan of income come from this year? Three or four million is not a small number, ask how much income Xixia can have in a year.

Exempt from the battle of the upper household, and collect the money of the lower household to support the floating people.

If this sentence is delayed for nine hundred years, it can make Sima Guang's mouth swollen. Is it wrong to free the upper household from errand service and create employment opportunities for the unemployed?

The market is easy to change, and the small people compete for profits, and the actual dissipation of official property.

The City Law is indeed a regression, but it also collects money, where does it really dissipate official property?

China has not been governed and has invaded the four provinces, and has gained less and lost more.

That is to say, China must achieve the four modernizations before it can use troops abroad.

The regiment practiced armor protection and taught murder weapons to fatigue the peasants.

Farming is the duty of the people, and they should not learn martial arts or touch weapons. Aren't the Han people docile enough? In fact, the truth is that Sima Guang is a typical representative of the ancient Chinese magnates, and the obedient people in his eyes must be diligent rabbits and puppets. Therefore, you can't touch weapons and wear socks......

Believe in the crazy and cunning people, vainly build water conservancy, and spend money on the people.

If it weren't for Wang Anshi's change, it is likely that at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, when 22 million households were common, there would be no need for the Jin people to go south, because they could not feed so many people, and the Song Dynasty itself would be in chaos.

But it is these crooked theories that many people think that Sima Guang is actually right.

It was Wang Anshi who did this that caused the catastrophe from the sky.

However, although this recital caused a sensation, Wang Anshi still didn't care much, because everything had to be said with a reason, not Sima Guang's strong reasoning.

Of course, Sima Guang didn't expect this piece to bring Wang Anshi down.

However, his killing is not this movement, but a person, a picture. People were once Wang Anshi's students, so this person will be extremely convincing. Picture, that would be an extremely miserable picture.

And Wang Anshi did another thing last year, that is, to exempt money.

Wang Anshi wanted to use the city law to crack down on the shortcomings of the group.

But it's impossible, besides, there are so many businesses in the world, how can the government run it? Of course, what Wang Ju thinks is to raise the official price of science distribution and buying, so that the people will spontaneously sell commercial goods to the government, so there is no need for the group to save zài, and it will be directly banned. Wang Anshi didn't think of it, but the country was upside down, how to make money?

Therefore, I thought of a "best of both worlds" solution, that is, to implement the exemption of money.

Now that the state has implemented the law of market trade, you can buy and sell by yourself, so there is no need to apportionment and purchase of the department from you, the group bank, so you have to convert the economic losses caused by the previous department distribution and purchase into money and hand it over to the state treasury.

After Wang Ju knew about this change, he was really drunk in Quanzhou.

Of course, the treasury was full, and the inner treasury was also full, but all the people fell into the pit together, especially the elite of the country, the big businessmen, big landlords, dignitaries, and relatives and clans.

Therefore, as long as this person and this picture appear, Wang Anshi will be finished immediately!
