Shang Ji's big move soon shocked the world, using sixty percent of the annual tax and a full 800 million gold to carry out water conservancy infrastructure construction, and it was three years at a time, which is simply unimaginable in the current turbulent situation!

The princes were collectively silent for a while, and then sent congratulatory letters in unison.

Some congratulate Shang Ji on his joy to get the help of the grandmaster, some express his admiration for Shang Ji's actions to benefit the country and the people, and more are encouragement and support for Shang Ji's move, of course, the support is limited to words.

In any case, the proposal of this series of huge water conservancy plans indicates that the Shang Ji will not be able to use swords and troops in the next three years, which is too good news for the princes who are struggling to support themselves under the oppression of the Shang Ji.

However, this is not the case for all princes, and Cao Cao, who was far away in Luoyang, carefully studied the water conservancy plan announced by Pingzhou and was silent for a long time.

Under the candlelight, Cao Cao sighed and closed the plan a little tiredly.

"Gongda, do you think the gap between me and that merchant is so big?"

Xun You next to him was stunned when he heard this, and then persuaded: "The lord must not think like this, then the merchant is nothing more than taking advantage of the stranger, if not, how can he be compared with the lord?" Today, our army occupies the imperial capital, and the 28 counties around Luoyang are all plastered lands. ”

Cao Cao's expression was a little complicated, and he was silent for a long time, and then he sighed: "Luoyang, is it a blessing or a curse?" ”

Xun You also fell silent when he heard this, Cao Cao gambled everything and successfully won a almost deserted Luoyang City, although Cao Cao had always been full of confidence in the past, but in fact, even he himself was not sure what the future would be.

As Cao Cao's most confidant strategist, Xun You naturally knows this. Not to mention Cao Cao, even he himself can't see what the future of Cao Cao's forces is. After actually settling in Luoyang, I found that there were too many problems that needed to be solved if I wanted to revitalize Luoyang City!

Capital, manpower, food, and technology are all indispensable, but the reality is that Cao Cao lacks all of them. In addition, the external environment is also quite harsh. Because of the fierce battle between the coalition army and Dong Zhuo's army, the vicinity of Luoyang was extremely withered, and there were many bandits, and the suppression of bandits made Cao Cao so busy that he was dizzy.

Diao Chan, who was far away in Chang'an, also sent people to harass him twice in three days, and in the face of Diao Chan, who occupied the danger of Hangu Pass, even Cao Cao was helpless.

Compared with Shang Ji, who had spare energy to carry out a three-year water conservancy construction plan, Cao Cao's disadvantages were too obvious. If you can't catch up in the past few years, the gap will only widen!

All the princes with a little foresight, in the face of the three-year construction plan thrown out by Shang Ji, are all happy and sad, gritting their teeth to speed up development, for fear that there will be no chance to catch up in the future.

On the contrary, within the Shang Army, except for the military, which complained that it would not be able to make a big move in the next three years, all other parties were jubilant. In particular, the enthusiasm of the private sector for this three-year construction plan is unprecedentedly high.

After the revision and supplementation of Deng Yan, Xun Yu and others, this three-year plan is no longer limited to water conservancy projects, it has become a huge planning system that includes roads, farmland, water conservancy, pastures, mines, forest farms, rivers, medicine gardens and many other contents.

In three years, the annual investment of 800 million gold, the cumulative investment of 2.4 billion gold, this is the number announced to the outside world, in fact, when the core figures of Pingzhou make the budget, it is planned according to the standard of one billion gold per year.

If it is really built, not only water conservancy, but also the basic industry of the entire Pingzhou will be unprecedentedly solid.

This is infrastructure construction, and the previous one-city-one-industry plan around the tens of thousands of technical talents brought back by Shangji from Ruoyang is more like a high-end technology industry, and the two complement each other and proceed simultaneously.

It can be expected that after the completion of these two plans, the prosperity of Pingchen Erzhou will definitely not be inferior to that of the mainland, and the comprehensive strength of the business will also be rocketed.

One thing that the outside world estimates is good, during the implementation of the construction plan, Shang Ji really has no spare strength to fight against foreign countries. In other words, within three years, Shang Ji could only be a bystander, watching the princes turn over the clouds.

However, this is also the result of consultation and judgment after a meeting of senior officials in Pingzhou. According to the estimates of Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia and others, in the next three years, the pattern of princes will not change much, which is also an important reason why Shang Ji dares to let go.

Resolute and resolute has always been the character of Shang Ji, and under the drive of Shang Ji, this style of action has also spread to the administrative system of Pingchen and the two prefectures, and on the third day of the rough plan, he began to take formal action.

As the saying goes, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, and the huge plan covering the grassland Duhufu, Chenzhou, and Pingzhou is basically a super project with a huge workload, so it is natural to make good preparations.

Not to mention the transfer of personnel and the recruitment of labor, with the efforts of Deng Yan and others, Pingzhou has established a mature and efficient management system to deal with these things, and what really needs to be worried about is the equipment!

There is no doubt that large machinery plays a role in large projects, and this is also true in Beacon.

Water conservancy facilities, roads and bridges, farmland reclamation, especially the first two, whether or not there is large-scale mechanical assistance are two completely different concepts.

In order to meet the needs of the project, Gong Yi and Hephaestus joined forces to lead many senior craftsmen in Pingzhou to study day and night, and spent more than three months to urgently design thirteen kinds of large-scale equipment driven by psionic energy, animal energy, and human hybrid power for excavation, leveling, dredging, and transportation with war puppets and wooden oxen and flowing horses as prototypes.

After the drawings were finalized, Pingzhou's huge manufacturing system started quickly, and it was rapidly manufactured at a rate of more than 300 per month. At the same time, the spirit condensation array system that Huang Yang Zhenren was responsible for also began to operate at full capacity, condensing pieces of spirit crystals, and then transporting them to the construction site to ensure the energy supply of machinery.

With the help of these large-scale equipment, the large-scale construction plan has achieved more significant results. The two states of Pingchen opened the construction site mode, and gold coins were scattered like a wave, and a large number of civilians were either conscripted or hired, and all of them were invested in infrastructure construction.

Even the county soldiers in various places have assigned construction tasks, and on the premise of ensuring that the combat effectiveness does not decline significantly, they have devoted themselves to construction as much as possible, and the construction scene in Pingchen and Erzhou is in full swing.

There are even a large number of players who are hired to participate in various constructions, and many of the plans directly absorb the opinions and suggestions of the senior engineers in the players to ensure that they are as perfect as possible.

When everyone was busy with construction, Shang Ji was not idle, after hard work day and night, Shang Ji finally came to good news - after a joint consultation of many grandmaster-level doctors, the exact news was obtained - Liu is pregnant!

When the news came out, the whole Pingzhou was boiling!
