Wang Ju didn't know that someone in the rear could actually expect him to take out more than a million armor control weapons......

The conversation continues.

is just chatting, Wang Ju doesn't want to be evil, and these two people are indeed two ministers. Especially Zhang Dan, if he can fight to the queen in history, maybe the Northern Song Dynasty will not perish. But it's not very good, with Hebei's current defense strength, even if there is no maritime alliance, after the Jurchens rise, sooner or later they will go south. At that time, the Northern Song Dynasty will have to finish.

Jurchen ...... Wang Ju can't think about it anymore, and when he thinks of all kinds of problems, he will also go crazy.

Lu Zhang and the two purely want to be friends.

So the three of them talked more speculatively.

Zhang Dian said: "Zi'an, I don't know how much Kapok Division can profit in a year?" ”

"It's not easy to say, I'll talk about the first year first, although the scale of the inner storage warehouse was not large last year."

It's actually not small, but it's really not big compared to the three {. divisions.

"However, since last spring, I have been planning with the officials and arranging manpower, and since last fall, officials from Guangnan East Road and Fujian Road have been cooperating with each other. So there's plenty of time. But this year, after seeing the benefits of kapok, the three divisions began to take action, and it is estimated that the edicts barely reached the hands of officials on Guangnan East Road. Even if the officials of Guangnan East Road start to mobilize the people to prepare now, the number is too large, and it is not easy to initiate the people to do the service. If you want the people to serve, you must appropriately contribute some money to recruit the people. ”

"Yes, there is such a thing, Cheng Shimeng mentioned this matter in the book, and the official family approved it." Lu Huiqing said.

Dare to love Wang Ju is worried in vain.

"That's good, but the time is still limited, and most of the New Year is a festival. The people also wanted to take a break. In February, the people will start spring ploughing and production. In such a short period of time. How much arable land can be reclaimed? Moreover, the embankment must be circled. In the embankment, the cultivated land shall be leveled and houses shall be built. ”

"yes, it's too short."

"Then next year, this time is free, and kapok is profitable, and the three divisions also have an economy in their hands and expand their scale. But I also told the official family in the palace about this matter, and the real cost of a quilt is only three or four hundred yuan. ”

"That's all the money?"

"Jifu. I'll tell you, one acre of real estate has more than 50 catties of cotton, and seven quilts can be spun. I plan to harvest seven stone rice per acre. ”

"It can't be that high." Zhang Dan said.

"Let's use an analogy, besides, planting cotton is more tiring than growing rice, especially during the cotton picking season, there is no effort to even drink a sip of water, and when it is late, the cotton will rot in the field. The price of one stone of rice is only more than 200 wen on Guangnan East Road. That is, cotton was purchased, and there were only 200 pieces of money per bed, which were spun and processed. Shipping, plus a simple cotton sleeve. Field tax, 400 tens of Wen is enough. Why can it be sold for twenty-five times? Scarcity is expensive. Once there are more, the price will gradually fall. ”

"I see."

"But Brother Jifu and Brother Zihou are not in a hurry, I will talk about its needs, even if Fujian Road is a little cold in winter."

"It's cold in the depths of winter, and there's frost as well." Lu Huiqing said. They are all builders, how can they not know? However, the weather close to zero degrees is rare and rare there, and even in the depths of winter, there are several degrees of temperature. But it is certainly not as good as Lingnan.

"I believe that after the popularization of cotton products, it can also be used, right?"

"If it's cheap, a thin quilt will be needed."

"That's it, not to mention the Yangtze River area, what about Liao, Xixia, Goryeo, Wa, Hehuang and Tibet? How many households are this demanding? If there is more, the price will inevitably fall, but the demand is too great to fall to the top. In the past ten years, the profits have been very rich. The exact amount of profit is determined by the market, and I dare not speculate. But the three divisions will make a lot of profit because of this. Therefore I have no objection in front of the officials. Besides, once promoted, Liangguang will bring benefits to the imperial court, and solve the pressure on the population of Fujian Road and Jiangnan Xixia. It is also a move to benefit the country and the people. ”

"Then I'll be relieved."

"But Brother Zihou must remember that no matter how much money the businessmen make, it is still left to them to operate."

However, this time it was destined to disappoint Wang Ju, whether it was Wang Anshi or Zhao Ji, when they saw the price of quilts rise to twenty-five times, all their eyes turned green, and it was impossible to hand them over to businessmen to operate.

"Brother Zi'an, there is a strange person in the capital." Lu Huiqing said: "Morality, talent, and articles are unmatched by anyone through the ages." ”

"Oh."

"The used to be ambitious, and his heart mourned this. If there is no food in a good year, there will be no water or drought. Although there is no theft, in case and soon. The act of the special worries is that there are eight or nine disasters in ten rooms.

Harada defeated corn wheat and wanted to complain. The intermittent pass was fortunate to see the province, and the flogging followed. In the case of winter and spring, the old and weak will be stiff. The state is closed, and the county officials are whipped and rented.

The township neighbors have two baht signs, and they sit on the empty south acre. Take the official at all, and the traitor has become rich. He fainted and called himself the father of the people. When I come to Sabari County, I am often ashamed.

The heart of the past mourned, and now it is also to blame. Chengtian Sanctuary is reluctant, and the situation is ugly. Dare not be diligent in internal litigation, and worry about the same friends. ”

"Compassion for the heavens and compassion...... Wang Ju said.

To be honest, Wang Anshi is indeed good morally, although he is not as good as Fan Zhongyan, but his talent is better than Fan Zhongyan.

With Wang Anshi's talent, this poem is written very ordinary.

But we can see a kind of mentality of the poet, sympathy for the people, and hatred for tyrants and greedy gentry.

"This is his feelings, Zi'an, you listen to this little order again, and you will see it in the late autumn of the homeland, and the weather will be at the beginning of the year. Thousands of miles of Chengjiang are like practice, and the green peaks are like clusters. Return to the sail to go to the slanting sun, with the west wind on the back, and the wine flag slanted. The colorful boats are faint, the stars are rising, and it is difficult to draw.

Thinking of the past, prosperous competition, sighing outside the building, grief and hatred continue. Through the ages, he has been proud and disgraced about this. The old things of the Six Dynasties are like flowing water, but the cold smoke and decayed grass are green. To this day, the merchant girl still sings and leaves songs. ”

After Lu Huiqing finished chanting, she seemed to be still reminiscing, and said: "Among the long and short sentences of ancient and modern exchanges, it should be counted as the first. ”

There are many Song lyrics that are well written, such as Su Dongpo's Nian Jiaonu, Water Tune Song Head, and two Jiang Chengzi.

Although Zhou Bangyan was promoted as the first lyricist of the Northern Song Dynasty because of the rhythm of the press, there are indeed some small orders that can be written.

But even among these excellent songs, this Guizhixiang is still one of the best, and it can at least squeeze into the top three! At least for now, it really should be number one! Even Su Dongpo saw it. Also amazed. This old man is a wild fox spirit! Scared Da Su.

And as soon as this small order came out. In the second year, it was sung in the capital, but Wang Ju was not in the capital, so he didn't know about it.

Wang Ju said calmly: "It was made by Jiefu, right?" ”

"Yes, I talked to the prince and admired him very much."

"The country needs a pillar to govern, it's not early, I came from a long distance, and I have to go back to rest." Wang Ju said.

The three of them did talk for a long time, and Lu Huiqing and Zhang Dian did not stay for a long time. It's just that Lu Huiqing is a little depressed, and I haven't introduced Wang Anshi yet.

Wang Ju went down the next day.

If it weren't for the people, they wouldn't know that Wang Ju had ever been to the capital.

Zhao Ji began to do it, and he had to pave the way for the change.

Qu Yuan died halfway through, he was a minister, I was the emperor, and I would not die. He was also mistaken, Qu Yuan died halfway through, if he continued to develop towards history. He died in a coffin......

Zhao Ji summoned all the important ministers to the Yanhe Hall to discuss the matter, and first said, "Zhuqing." Since I succeeded to the throne, the finances have been scarce, Zhao Qing (Zhao Luan) said six redundant, Wang Tao said redundant soldiers, I also laid off 250,000 troops, and the Fangchang River Crossing was auctioned one after another, and there were Kapok proceeds, all of which were used by the state, and the inner library pearl borneol was handed over to the state for the use of the goods, why is the finance still scarce? ”

Lu Gongbi said: "Although the army has been reduced, the redundant army in the world is still heavy, and now there are 540,000 forbidden soldiers, 370,000 van soldiers, and more than 100,000 soldiers and Baojie, and the number of officers and soldiers who are supported alone has reached more than 1.1 million, how can the finances improve? In addition, the reduction of troops needs to be resettled, and after two or three years, it will be slightly reversed. And the minister went on again, it was originally a good policy to cut troops, but Zheng Baiqu increased the officers and soldiers of the 46th battalion, and went against the current, and the 46th battalion of Baojie did not have armor. Please consider it. ”

"It's not that many forbidden soldiers have been eliminated, what about their armor?"

"They originally used paper armor and cloth armor, which is actually clothes, and with the elimination, they also let them bring it back, where is the armor."

"That is, they didn't have armor before, why didn't they report it to me? How many soldiers in the forbidden army were unarmoured? ”

"There are a lot, but not in our dynasty, but in the Renzong Dynasty, the Xiandi Dynasty, and even in the Taizu Dynasty, Taizong Dynasty, and Zhenzong Dynasty, after all, there are so many troops, how to equip them one by one?" Lu Gongbi replied, don't ask me, it has nothing to do with me, and it has nothing to do with the current Xifu.

"And what about weapons?"

"The weapons that can be used have also been left by the officers and soldiers of the battalions, and those who can't be used are handed over to the Baojie Army, and after the trial there, none of them are retained, and all of them are handed over to Jingzhao Mansion for recasting or destruction. The 46th Battalion of Baojie now has no armor and no weapons. If it's equipment, it's a lot of money......"

"Don't talk about it, the country is rotten, it's rotten, it's rotten to the bones, I sell pearl borneol this year, what else can I sell next year, can I sell this?" Zhao Ji raised the jade seal and said.

He's talking angry, it's just selling, someone has to dare to buy it.

But this jade seal will also be sold, it will be disgusting, and Sima Guang does not dare to say that as long as the people are used well, the country will be governed. Zhao Ji was pressing, Sima Guang was forced to have no choice, so he flickered, if he wanted to cure a county, he had to use a good county, he wanted to know who people were good counties, he had to use good knowledge of the state, he wanted to know those people who were good knowledge of the state, he had to use the good transfer envoy, he wanted to know that those were good transfer envoys, he had to use the prime minister. That is, if the prime minister uses it well, the country will be governed. So those people are good prime ministers, Lu Xu, Lu Gongzhu and others are all his good friends...... That is, make good use of him, make good use of his good friends, and the world will soon come.

But Zhao Ji was very proud in his heart, how effective this trick was.

In terms of anger, I was already numb with anger, so why be angry today?

He also said: "Some people say redundant soldiers, some people say redundant officials, Bao Zheng used to write a book, saying that there were only three or five thousand military attachés in the world during the time of Taizu, and there were nine thousand seven hundred and eighty-five military attachés in the world during the Jingde Xiangfu period, but the number increased to more than 17,300 when the emperor was you. However, Bao Zheng said that there are 320 prefectures and 1,250 counties in the country, and 5,000 or 6,000 officials are needed. But now that I have checked, there are more than 25,000 officials in the world. So much so that there is a sentence left at home and abroad, Que three make up one, what is Que three make up one, a bad official comes out, at least three officials are waiting for the alternate! ”

Including Miao Zhi, before Miao Zhi was conferred, he was the deputy envoy of the supply treasury, not Allah who was in charge of the supply treasury, this was a military officer, who had his post but not his power, and was also waiting at home for the alternate.

"If this development continues, is my Great Song Dynasty preparing 50,000 officials?"

Everyone was silent and did not dare to speak.

In any case, the number of officials is indeed too redundant and too pitiful.

As soon as Zhao Ji's heart was cold, he thought of Wang Ju's five distractions, this is a group of loyal and good officials who will be supported by high salaries in the future.

But this time he was prepared to fight, so he looked at a person, whether he could make it or not was on him, of course it was not Wang Anshi, Wang Anshi still needed protection for the time being. (To be continued......)
