Chapter 316: The Wind Blows

The first section of the new city wall was completed and accepted.

Don't be happy yet, assuming that a circle is divided into sixteen parts and then counts as a city wall, then yes, now Funing County has the first new city wall. It can be regarded as a landmark building, but it is very funny, it is erected alone, and it is of no use for the time being, except for the use of Diao Min to hang the city wall.

If Da Yan was an official in the later civilization era, he would have been removed from his post and fucked out, but not in the Great Song Dynasty.

At the time of the autumn harvest, Geng Tianqiu was in a complicated mood, standing on the high new city wall with Dayan and looking at the steady stream of grain collection teams in the distance.

This time, Funing County can be regarded as a bumper harvest, because the rain is abundant, and the fields in those sensitive areas to the north are also relatively fertile.

The big goose is not a high-face project, and this year's grain and rice are not a single acre. Rich people who want to eat rice can try to buy it from the market by themselves, now there is a market and rice merchants in Funing County, the price of rice is very expensive, much higher than that of the Suide army, but Da Yan doesn't care, those who are willing to eat will buy it, just send tax special forces to keep an eye on those profiteers, if you dare to yin big cloud, the new city wall is used to hang them.

The thinking of the common people is more traditional, even if the prestige of the big goose is high, they have also vigorously propagated, they do not reject cereals but prefer rice after all. As a result, Da Yan relaxed its control, except for pregnant women, children under the age of six, and soldiers who must eat feed hard, other voluntary.

That is to say, but there are still many people who eat feed, because it is cheap, the feed county government is to give food subsidies, as long as the household registration in Funing County can receive military food stamps every month, it is very cost-effective to buy with military food stamps, you don't need to eat meat and vegetables, and your health can be very good. This is the bottom line guaranteed by the government, and it does not conflict with the rich workers who eat some meat and drink some wine.

The reason why all the land can be used for horse grains is to save the cost of seeds. By the way, all the cultivated land in Funing County no longer belongs to individuals, and used to belong to the county government, and later it was assigned to the Northwest United Investment Bank in the asset restructuring. As a result, agriculture was industrialized, and those who farmed the fields were counted as investment bank employees. So what to plant and what not to plant was the final word at that time, and now it is Ye Wushuang who has the final say.

Businessmen urinate, agriculture does not make money, these fields and leaves Wushuang don't want, this period is supported by Wang Yan's government collection and storage plan, which means that Wang Yan still gave her a grain subsidy and signed a grain pricing recovery agreement, otherwise the field would have been abandoned by Ye Wushuang.

Now it has become a chicken rib, even if this asset is refrigerated and wasted, now when there are not enough people, Ye Wushuang no longer wants to invest personnel to farm, even if there is a grain subsidy, the benefit is too small.

However, the red line of 10,000 mu set by Wang Yan could not be broken, and in the end it could not be coordinated, so Wang Yan was slaughtered by the young lady this time, and spent a lot of financial costs, and the county government bought back the land in the hands of the Northwest Investment Bank. Including those who are already very skilled in farming, enough "transfer fees" have also been given to reallocate to the name of state-owned enterprises.

This is Geng Tianqiu's participation in the operation, so now standing on the head of the windy city, Uncle Geng is in a sad mood. He was very unaccustomed to being pitted by the big goose, but this time he was slashed by Ye Wushuang for the sake of food security.

There is no way that Dayan will really make mistakes, and this is the sequelae of the rush to form the Northwest United Investment Bank. Buying the smelter back is a god's operation, but the price of buying the field back is really not small.

However, the government is not an enterprise, and there are some things that really have to be covered, and the loss of money must be supported, and it cannot be messed around in a hurry.

Although there are supplies from Hedong now, the ghost weather of the previous year was too ecstatic, and the transportation line was interrupted several times, which was filled in with human lives. Fortunately, Han Qi has faith and obsession, and if he had changed to a businessman, he would have run out of food a long time ago. So what will happen in the future, no one knows.

So now Dayan is building a large grain depot again, and the grain grown by himself is stored, and he eats what Han Qi sold.

Only when you have food in your hands can you not panic, how much you pay for these grains, only Da Yan and Geng Tianqi care. As for the others, they are heartless, along the way of harvesting grain, most of the people are working, and they are accustomed to hard times, and they see a steady stream of autumn harvest teams transporting all kinds of grain into the grain depot.

"Your Excellency."

Geng Tianqiu said while looking at it, "For the sake of these grains, my finances, which I can't afford to relax, have been slashed again, and I can't say how much money I will burn in this area in the future." There is also a big loophole in my county's food subsidies, and now many people don't need those subsidized food stamps, so many people are reselling them privately, really, and they won't take the initiative to return to the county government? ”

Wang Yan muttered: "The people of the world are so virtuous, what can I do?" Now we must fully cooperate with the expansion of the steam engine capacity of Xu Langshan and their factory, this work must not stop, make it for me, even if it is not cost-effective, it will be built for me, mines, cement plants, coking plants, smelters, machinery factories, etc., waiting to be used everywhere. ”

"Well, okay." Geng Tianqiu could only nod, the Great Demon King was so virtuous. This is the conflict between Uncle Geng and Da Yan, the person in charge of the accounts, he just likes to count the money and hold the money in his hands, but Wang Yan is a fortune boy, he likes to burn.

In fact, according to Geng Tianqiu's opinion, there is no need to spend those unjust money at all, and let those fields rot in the hands of the Northwest Investment Bank. But the Great Demon King is going to spend that money. In the period of high growth when industry is waiting for capital expansion, spending a lot of money to collect land and exchanging the funds that can generate interest for grain and storing it in the treasury is of course a reverse operation of capital. It's a pity that it is also a necessary operation for the government.

After talking about the financial problems, the bald head of the security mouth looked like he wanted to say something.

"Say it." Wang Yan could only listen.

"Even if you say don't think about it, don't predict the war. However, according to the steady stream of news from other regions, such as Pingrong Village and Yumou City in the jurisdiction of Yan'an Prefecture, as well as the Great Wall section of the Security Military Defense Zone, Shentang Fort in the Dingbian Military Defense Zone, Qingping Pass in the Huanzhou Defense Zone, and many other places, the friction between the Song and Xia Dynasty is increasing, and the death and injury of border people is the norm. Since last month, there have been frictions and even casualties between the two armies in many areas. On the Western Xia side, the Jianing Army on the Western Front advanced as much as 150 in the direction of Hongzhou on the border. On the eastern front, the situation in Funing County is even more severe, and the Western Xia Xiangyou Military Division and the Shenyong Military Division are also advancing in the direction of Yongle City. ”

Wang Yan frowned, this is indeed a not very good sign.

Quan Berlin continued: "Although my Privy Council of the Great Song Dynasty has not yet ordered it, there is news that Counselor Li has acquiesced to the main force of the Dingbian Army to the front line of Jiuyang Fort. In addition, the main force of the security forces drove to the front line of Shunning Village and deployed along the Great Wall. On the side of Yan'an Prefecture, the 1,000 elite cavalry of Chong'e also drove to the Tumen line, and Chong'e had unlocked the marching authority of the Suide army. That is to say, there is no need to inform us that Cao Shouyi's troops may be stationed at any position where they may cross the Dali River and enter the Yinzhou territory at any time, and according to the system, my Funing County will bear the food of the Suide army. ”

Hearing this, Wang Yan couldn't help but scold: "Li Shen, this idiot! Whoever will trouble the world in the future will be this thief! ”

The surrounding civil servants almost ran away, and Da Yan openly insulted the top officials in Shaanxi, and many people were embarrassed, because according to this situation, once the war started, Li Shen automatically became the commander of the Northwest Battlefield, which was the existence of the military rule of law.

Not to mention that there is too much hatred from the gods, and it doesn't seem like a good thing that the permissions of the Sui German army have been unlocked. It looks like they can maneuver to participate in the protection of Funing County, but who knows that they won't be stabbed in the back by Cao Shouyi of the dog day? If the house tartars are in trouble, they are much more dangerous than the wild tartars outside.

Quan Berlin then said: "My lord, although you said not to scare yourself, your subordinates suggest that you still plan ahead. In this situation, it seems that your Cold War plan is not working. So although he knew that you couldn't find any workers now, he still suggested starting the second round of army expansion plan, and the flintlock pistol production capacity could not be provided for the time being, so we had to arm ourselves? ”

Geng Tianqiu intervened unconvinced: "This bald head is alarmist, nonsense, and you know how much the consequences are if you lose faith in Han Qi?" Without this profit to support my Funing County, you hairless guy can't even pay the salary of the security forces, and you are expanding the armament war, what are you thinking? ”

"You ......" the whole Berlin couldn't help but feel a little angry.

Wang Yan raised his hand to stop their argument and said, "Don't make noise. What Geng Tianqiu said is practical, Han Qi really can't be provoked, you can see how many people died last year when they transported grain, you can't find an objective reason for him, there are only two results in his concept, delivery, or no delivery. ”

"In addition, what the whole of Berlin said is that it is real and must be resolved. Are the Cold War plans working? I know a little bit about it, it's just my plan, but why does it have to work? So the proposed clerk of the whole Berlin could be recorded on the spot, and I authorized it on the spot. Now, a second new battalion was recruited, and a new cavalry musket battalion was formed, using the horses saved by the steam engine. ”

The Minister of Armed Forces, Quan Berlin, was not very satisfied with this, and said in amazement: "Just a battalion? ”

Wang Yan spread his hands and said, "Then what do you want me to do?" That's all I can do in Funing County. Now there is no one, and even if the full-time training unit that formed this battalion needs to mobilize and encourage workers to retire from non-essential posts and join the army. Fortunately, the propaganda work has been done very well, and there is no difficulty in mobilizing to join the army. So don't expect too much, one battalion is the limit compromise I can make in civil affairs. ”

After a pause, Wang Yan said: "In addition, Li Shen, a guy who has frequent tricks, is messing around and adding fuel to the fire, so as a response, my lord, I announce that the entire Funing Army has entered the second-level combat readiness state." However, the flintlock pistol section and the steam engine section are exempted. Their task was to produce at maximum speed, to solve the technical problem of shock absorption as quickly as possible, and to make the steam engine power part replace the manual gun manufacturing process as soon as possible. ”

The so-called second-level combat readiness state of the Funing Army refers to the whole county, because this administrative unit itself is also called the Funing Army. That is, it has reached the stage of national mobilization and service.

Before that, the people of Funing County were not required to serve, but in the second-level combat readiness state, except for the members of the flintlock pistol and steam engine section authorized by Wang Yan, they all needed to participate in the education and training of the reserve militia in their spare time, and most of the training items were auxiliary, survival, transportation, coordination of regular combat troops, and so on. If the time is staggered and there is a conflict with production, then the system of the factory must compromise and cooperate with the service of the second level of combat readiness.

Of course, state-owned enterprises are fine, but Ye Wushuang's Northwest Investment Bank must also cooperate unconditionally. Because this is really the law of the Great Song Dynasty.

If it is only a first-level state, the scope of mobilization is not so large, and once it conflicts with production, then the people in the reserve establishment can not come, and the production will be the mainstay.

If it is further promoted to the third level, then all unnecessary production will be stopped, and the stage of national mobilization into the war without any concept of costs, wages, finances, etc., will be stopped.

It is impossible for other bureaucrats to fully enter this "three-level transformation state", but Da Yan can. The obscene and old-fashioned propaganda work lasted for more than a year, and under Hitler's Stalin-like management model, it was not a problem to enter this state for several years.

Of course, this state of disintegration of the Heavenly Demon is too hurtful, and the sequelae are very large, and it can't last for a long time, and it can't be too frequent. That's why I don't care what Li Shen is doing with that mallet, Funing County will definitely not casually enter the state of transforming into chicken blood.
