Chapter 235: Food Stamps

"Sun Quan mutilated the people and things, and I couldn't grow long, so I divided my life and conquered the three roads together."

On June 13 of the first year of the Xia calendar, and on the sixth day of the fifth month of the first year of Han Zhangwu, Cao Pi sent a flying horse to Xiangyang to state the matter.

The Wei army fought the Wei army, and the Han army fought the Han army, and the notice sent by Cao Pi did not have any waves.

Could it be that if your Wei State crusaded against the unrighteous Wu State, the Han army could only watch and wait until you finished fighting and then fought a decisive battle with you?

Or should the Han army not interfere with the righteous punishment of the Wei army for the sake of justice?

At this time, Zhang Fei and Xiahou also happened to arrive in Xiangyang to inspect Xiahou Xian together.

Zhang Fei also had a mission, that is, to go to Wancheng to discuss a more detailed war plan with Guan Yu during the period, and observe and refamiliarize himself with the mountains and rivers of Nanyang for prevention.

Wuguan Road was deliberately guided by the guard Wei Ping, so the flash flood washed away many sections of the gallop road, so Wuguan Road could not be used without maintenance and repair.

The 300-mile Wuguan Road, each side has a 100-mile deep and wide beacon fire warning facility, which can basically prevent the occurrence of surprise attacks.

In Danyang Township, a drainage mill has been set up, and these water mills have built convenient bamboo sheds to shelter from the rain and wind, and are grinding wheat transported from various parts of Maicheng, Xinye, and Zhaoyangyi.

Grinding flour, squeezing oil, and rushing to plant rice or summer wheat are the top priorities of the various ministries in Beifu at present.

After the busy planting, the training will start in the beginning of autumn in August of the summer calendar.

There is a very embarrassing thing in Beifu at present, too many sergeants and their families are separated, this problem can only be solved by military victory, or delayed, since Tian Xin and below, they are all eager for war and want to use war to solve the problem.

At the same time, it raises a question, that is, whether the grain of the government soldiers and soldiers is public food or the private food of the government soldiers.

The household registration of the soldiers did not pay taxes, but they were organized by Tian Xin to use the old water conservancy sites of the Qin and Han dynasties to cultivate the fertile land that had been barren due to the war.

If these grains are considered public grains, it is contrary to the original intention of the government soldiers not to pay taxes, after all, the government soldiers do not receive military salaries, and they still only have winter clothes and summer clothes twice a year.

If it's considered private food......

With the winter wheat harvested and put into storage, this problem needs to be explained.

If it is private food, the government soldiers should have the right to dispose of it, and they can replace some living utensils to improve their own lives.

Or take a bucket of grain to the military market to relieve physical and mental pressure in the female lu.

But if it is private food, when the government soldiers go out, the court is not responsible for the military food, in other words, the military food problem is still on the head of the government soldiers.

Tian Xin forgot the most basic rule of the government soldier system, when assembled, the government soldiers were a group of ten soldiers, and a group should be equipped with at least six donkeys and horses to carry daily necessities and combat equipment.

In addition, the Sui and Tang Dynasty soldiers had extremely high animal power equipment, so the government soldiers could basically bring enough materials for daily needs.

The official only needs to solve the armor, spears, crossbows, and forage, and if the levy period is extended, it will be appropriate to make up for the additional levy period.

At present, the issue of returning the grain obtained by the government soldiers and military cantonments to the public and private interests is only a node encountered in the development of the government and military system, and it cannot be rigidly copied and must be resolved in the light of the actual situation.

For fear that Tian Xin would be emotional, Shi Yangyi, the marching commander, and Shi Guoyou, the left-behind commander, came to persuade them that almost all the middle and high-ranking military officials believed that this year's grain should be returned to the public and distributed by the government in a unified manner.

The Beifu soldiers are no longer short of food now, even if the autumn grain harvest in Zhaoyangyi and Maicheng fails, the Beifu soldiers can carry it until next spring.

It is the friendly army that needs to be helped, and the government soldiers are given an extra 10% of the right to dispose of grain, that is, the quota of 100,000 stone rice and wheat, which is enough for the 60,000 army to spend in a month.

So the public and private are divided into two...... It's all excessive, it's best not to give a grain of food to the government soldiers, and rations are still distributed according to the previous rationing system.

The other five or five are divided, four or six are divided and so on, if Tian Xin dares to bring it up, Liu Bei and Guan Yu will intervene in this matter.

The impact of Zhaoyangyi's grain is really huge, and the land of Zhaoyangyi is assigned to Tian Xin, and the Beifu soldiers are free to reclaim it without restrictions, so that it is not a bumper grain harvest at this moment?

Liu Bei authorized the demolition of the soil, and Tian Xin forcibly evicted or used the "Three Ke Household Laws" to dismantle the Haoqiang in the fiefdom, in order not to successfully reclaim this easy-to-reclaim anointed land?

Therefore, grain is not only the result of the reclamation of Beifu soldiers, but also the result of Liu Bei and Guan Yu's support and planning.

The right to dispose of this batch of grain is by no means something that Tian Xin alone can make decisions at will.

Yang Yi persuaded: "Xiahou, June and July are busy with farming, and the sergeant is afraid of slacking off with surplus grain. There are many single-family officials in our army, and they hold surplus grain to help the female households, which is not conducive to the major affairs of the military state. ”

Being in Beifu, he said naturally the summer calendar month: "Our army assembles and drills in the autumn on August 9, and August 20 is the Zhongyuan Festival, which is the day when Xiahou holds a summer sacrifice." At the time of the summer festival, Xiahou should not prepare enough wine and river fresh to reward the officials. ”

Guo Youzhi also advised: "Today, all the armies are looking forward to the grain and straw in the north as they are looking forward to the rain, and Xiahou should focus on the overall situation of the whole army." ”

"Not really."

On the march Sima Li Fu had another opinion: "We understand what the overall situation is, but it is unkind to ask the officials to do so. Many officials have been away from their homeland for a long time, and they look forward to getting three or five buckets after the winter wheat is harvested. It is not a shortage of three or five buckets of rations, but the lack is the care and respect of His Majesty and Xiahou. ”

Sima Fu Tong, who stayed behind, did not speak, the stall in Beifu was so big, and all the problems were in front of him, Tian Xin lived by the grassroots level, and the situation at the bottom could not be hidden.

Care and respect cannot be said with words, but actual items should be used to express love and respect for the Beifu soldiers.

Give them extra food, let them make wine, change toys, use it to help lonely women, in short, you have to treat them as human beings, respect the fruits of their labor, and be considerate of their psychological and physical needs.

Consumption is currently the best way to heal psychological scars.

With the current prices, the government soldiers can take three or five buckets of wheat to the military market when they are on vacation, and they can also live a comfortable life of drunkenness and dreams for two or three days.

doesn't care about the crotch of the soldiers, and the soldiers won't tie their heads to the crotch of their pants.

Pang Lin went back to Xiangyang to be a matchmaker, and those who should have expressed their positions had already expressed their positions, so he looked at Li Fu: "The grain has already been put into storage, or it may be shipped, so it is inconvenient to make another transfer." In this way, food stamps were issued to the sergeants, and the officers went to the military market and granaries with the food stamps to withdraw the grain. This thing recognizes the vote, not the person. ”

"Food stamps?"

"It's a food stamp."

Tian Xin got up and rummaged through the cabinet on one side, and turned out a stack of food stamps, which were originally prepared last year and were carved and printed by craftsmen in Maicheng, but the quality of the straw paper was not very good, and the white paper made this year faintly had the appearance of Zuobo paper, and the cost was a little high.

Each food stamp is the size of a normal banknote, and Yang Yi and a few people are quite curious, and they catch the observation, the paper is smooth and tough. There are three kinds of Mai Yishi, Mai Wudou, and Mai Yidou, and each grain stamp is stamped with three seals, which happen to fall on the three printing fonts.

Xiahou Xinyin, Han Zhengbei General Yin, Wudang Hou Yin, from left to right, a total of three seals.

That's right, food stamps are not written from top to bottom, but from left to right.

Yang Yi observed carefully and saw that there was no obvious error in the text and seal on the front of each food stamp, and he could probably guess that it was a double printing of engraving, and the back of the grain stamp was a staggered diamond pattern, which could not be seen as special.

He had seen how the Maicheng workshop printed the back flag, but no matter how good the wood carving was, it would be deformed after soaking in ink for a long time.

Guo Youzhi and Fu Tong didn't know the inside story, they only saw the eight words in the upper left corner of the grain stamp, 'Beifu grain stamps, Tongyi Zhaoyang', and the eight characters in the lower right corner, 'Xiahou supervised, the forger was chopped'.

When Tian Xin saw Yang Yi looking over, he opened his mouth to explain: "Wei is safe, and the template is not bad for a thousand years." ”

Compared with copperplate printing stamps, the position of captain of Si Jin, and the power to mint coins, do not seem to be a big deal.

Tian Xin picked up a small stack of food stamps and rubbed them in his hand, and couldn't help but smile.

When the triumphant return, the workshop has surplus productivity, it will print cards, paste and paste printed white paper, maybe Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei can sit together and fight the landlord...... This is not good, it is better to play and run fast.

The more the development trajectory of this world is changed, the more the space-time feedback power will be leveraged under the chain reaction...... It's also a lot easier to upgrade.
