After Cheng Yuan left, Zhang Yue locked himself in the bedroom in the backyard of the county government, writing and drawing on the cloth with a pen all day long, and he didn't know what he was busy with.

And all the affairs of the county government were handed over to Hu Jian and Sang Jun to deal with.

To be honest, there is actually nothing going on in Xinfeng County now.

It's July, the last month before the autumn harvest, the month of the year when government affairs are the least.

Because, at this time, the government will not assign any tasks to the people, and the people will not come to the government to find anything.

All the people, all the energy, are focused on the field, on the harvest that is about to begin.

Zhao Guo was relatively busy over there, and all day and night, he took the agricultural officials to haunt the township pavilions, guide the people, and do the last work before the autumn harvest.

After a day in the bedroom, Zhang Yue finally pushed the door open.

He was very satisfied with the cloth in his hand, and it took him a day and a night, and he finally drew a three-dimensional drawing of the curved plough and the cocoon in later generations.

In fact, the drawings of these two instruments are not complicated, but Zhang Yue's painting skills are worrying, and he has never learned to draw.

I can't even help with space, so I can only copy the patterns in my head bit by bit.

burned an unknown number of brain cells, and after countless efforts, I was finally fortunate to survive and restore these two big killers.

"Next, it depends on whether the craftsmen of Shaofu can make ploughshares......" Zhang Yue thought in his heart, Quyuan plough Zhang Yue had seen the real thing in later generations, it was very young, his grandfather brought his memories of ploughing the land, and the memory of Quyuan plough was made of steel.

In this era, although there is a so-called 100 steel-making and steel-filling technology.

But this kind of pure hand-made and personal production of steel, with small production and high price, is simply not affordable for ordinary people.

Although the current iron-smelting industry of the Han dynasty is developed, the annual output of iron is at least hundreds of thousands of catties (as early as forty years ago, the pig iron output of Cheng Zheng and Zhuo's in Linqiong reached the level of more than 200,000 catties per year, and the Nanyang Kong family in the same period also had similar output, and the iron production of the current Han Shaofu is stronger than that of the private iron-smelting workshop forty years ago!). ）

In the Han Dynasty, charcoal was used to smelt iron, so the quality of pig iron was not bad.

Although China's iron ore itself has a high sulfur content, it is still possible to use it as a civilian ploughshare.

The only question was whether the craftsmen of Shaofu would be able to make a suitable ploughshare and reduce its cost.

In Zhang Yue's vision, the cost of the Quyuan plough has been controlled below 4,000 yuan.

Preferably no more than three thousand!

Because if it is high, ordinary people simply cannot afford to consume it.

Just like in history, the Erniu lifting bar technology promoted by Zhao Guo actually promoted the formation of gate valve politics and big clans!

Because, an ordinary homesteader family of five can't afford to raise two cows at all, and even small landlords can't afford to raise them.

As a result, even if the landlords did not use the means, the speed of their wealth accumulation quickly surpassed that of his neighbors.

This directly led to the polarization and class solidification of social classes in the middle and late Western Han Dynasty.

One side is getting richer and the other side is getting poorer.

Finally, the class was completely solidified, and the poor family could no longer produce noble sons.

Fortunately, this is China.

It is China that is illuminated and nurtured by the thoughts of the sons of the Warring States Period.

Historically, Wang Mang even carried out the reform of Juntian to limit slaves, although the reform ultimately failed, but at the beginning, when the interests of the landlords and nobles were not harmed, there were many people who applauded.

Just like some time ago, the Ram School came up with the 'abolitionist' ideology.

It also influenced many aristocratic landlords and freed slaves and maids.

It's also a good thing.

In the Western continent at the same time, Zhang Yue remembered that the reforms of the famous Gracchus brothers had already been chopped into parts before they even began.

This is still Rome.

If it were in the Middle Ages, the Gracchus brothers would not have been burned at the stake!

But in China, if you just shout something like 'equal land and abolition of slaves and maids', you may be able to become a virtuous person in the opposition.

Even if it is put into practice, as long as it does not cause public anger and makes the landlords feel the pain on their skin, there is probably no problem, and maybe they can be regarded as the sages of the world.

Just like when Dong Zhongshu was alive, in addition to preaching 'heaven and man induction', the most fierce shouting was 'limiting the people's famous fields', and then there was the famous saying 'The poor have no place to stand, and the rich have no place to live', so Confucianism has since suffered from 'Jingtian obsession'.

Starting from Wang Mang to the Southern Song Dynasty, I don't know how many great Confucian ministers have fought Jingtian's doctrine.

For the Confucian scholars, no matter which faction he belonged to, the Ida system was always their greatest common divisor.

The only difference is that some people feel that in order to save the world, they must immediately go to the Ma Jingtian system, some people think that it is necessary to take it gradually and slowly, and some people just shout.

In ancient China (outside of the Mongol Yuan and Manchu Qing dynasties), the matter of equalizing fields has always been the g-spot of literati and doctors.

If a celebrity has not talked about this topic, then he will probably not become a celebrity.

Even, if someone does not support the land, then he will be considered to have no conscience.

How can you be so bad?

Didn't you see the people of the world being exploited so badly by those corrupt officials and tyrants?

Doesn't your conscience hurt?

But Zhang Yue didn't want to touch the limited field at all...... Not to mention Junda!

Because, he knows, even if he can really equalize the field, there is no use for eggs!

To be reasonable, under the rule of the Legalists of the Qin Dynasty, the personal land quota was strictly controlled, and no one could be an exception under the 21st level of the Famous Land House system of the Lords of Military Merit.

However, is the social problem solved?

Did the peasants have their filled?

Not really!

In fact, restricting or equalizing fields can only treat the symptoms.

If productivity cannot be improved, even if 100 acres of land per household are forcibly allocated, it will be no problem.

After two or three generations, the suppressed contradictions will still erupt.

The only way to do this is to increase productivity.

If one acre of land can produce ten stones of grain, then there is no need to limit the land and average the field, and most of the social contradictions in the Han family can be solved at once.

The world will soon be able to run into the rule of three generations.

Even if the yield per mu was simply doubled to four stones, the middle class and yeoman farmers would be much better.

As a magistrate, and a bureaucrat who can influence state policy in the future.

Zhang Yue knew that what he should do was to reconcile the contradictions.

You can't kill and kill like the Legalists, and when you kill all the people, the problem still exists.

Nor can he be like the Guliang School, shrink his head, raise his hand and surrender to the big landlords of the big clans, and go along with them.

And this curved plough and columb, carry such expectations.

The curved plough, which was born thousands of years earlier, and the cocoon cart that appeared years earlier (or the final version that was improved by countless people over countless years) were enough to greatly increase productivity.

Coupled with the seeds of space optimization, Zhang Yue feels that he should be able to set a small goal for himself - the average yield of wheat per mu in Xinfeng Gongtian and Extension Field will reach five stones next year!

Such a goal should not be a problem.

Just thinking about these things, I saw Sang Jun come over and report: "Shizhong, some time ago, Shizhong ordered the official to return to Beijing to discuss with my father, and now there is a result......

When Zhang Yue heard this, he was overjoyed!

A few days ago, Zhang Yue asked Sang Jun to go back and discuss with Sang Hongyang to integrate the salt officials, iron officials, market officials, and other industrial and commercial affairs in Xinfeng and set up a new organization.

For the establishment of this institution, Zhang Yue adopted the later industrial and commercial bureau, the National Development and Reform Commission, and the public security.

It is still under the leadership of Dasi Nong, but it is directly under the jurisdiction of Xinfeng.

The appointment, dismissal and use of its officials are also determined by Xinfeng, but the income is fifty-fifty.

Half of it was left to Xinfeng, and half was handed over to the Inner Treasury of Dasi Nong.

Zhang Yue felt that it was impossible for Sang Hongyang to refuse.

I listened to Sang Jun and said: "My father replied that the things proposed by the servant are very good, but they are just ...... Set up an official office without permission, I'm afraid Your Majesty's side will ......"

Zhang Yue scratched his head when he heard this, and said, "It's good that the official over there of the Son of Heaven will go to petition...... As long as Dasi Nong does not object and is willing to cooperate......"

If Da Sinong doesn't agree to this matter, Zhang Yue will have no problem.

After all, the resources and the entire system are in the hands of the big Si Nong.

"If that's the case......" Sang Jun couldn't suppress the joy in his heart: "Then Dasi Nong has no objection!" ”

His father's letter said a lot of things.

There is no doubt that this method proposed by Zhang Yue also gives Dasi Nong, especially Sang Hongyang, a new way of thinking.

In these years, everyone knows that eating alone is hated.

But Dasi Nong had to eat alone, because today's appetite is too great!

And the brain hole is too big!

Today's spending money has never been planned, without warning, and without warning.

Just like back then, His Majesty went to Ganquan Palace from Chang'an to escape the summer, and saw many princes and nobles at the foot of Ganquan Mountain who also built a summer resort under the mountain of this royal garden.

He suddenly ordered to triple the area of the Ganquan Palace, demolish all the aristocratic estates, and turn the entire Ganquan Mountain into the territory of the royal family.

What can the ministers do?

can only desperately find a way to raise money for him.

In those years, His Majesty went out hunting, but accidentally stepped on the farmer's uncle's crops, and was chased and scolded by the people for three streets.

When he returned, he was depressed, and finally ordered that the area of the Upper Forest Garden be doubled, so that he could enjoy his safari.

Again, this is an astronomical expense.

But no one dares to oppose or stop it!

For decades, only one minister could stop His Majesty from spending as much as he wanted.

That is, the old Shang Shu Ling, Huaiyin is too guarded and dark.

It's a pity that this old man has been dead for twenty or thirty years.

As a result, this great Sinong became the target of the entire civil service system.

I don't know how many people gritted their teeth and wanted to kill the big Si Nong and the salt and iron system.

If Zhang Yue's plan is feasible, it will not affect the income of Dasi Nong himself, and can even increase his income.

Then make a big profit!

Even if it doesn't work, you can release goodwill to the people of the world: I Sanghong sheep don't really want to eat alone!

And the biggest beneficiary of this plan, in addition to Zhang Yue, the initiator, is, of course, him, the supervisor.

If he makes achievements, Sang Jun will even have the opportunity to worship Jiuqing in the future!

Maybe even take the old father's class!

This stimulus alone made Sang Jun unable to control it, and he acted very much and was motivated to work.

When Zhang Yue heard this, he also put his mind at ease, took Sang Jun's hand, and said: "This matter is thanks to the Sang Ling's maneuvering and turning, and in the future, the affairs of this new yamen will also ask the Sang Lingzhi to bother more......"

"Don't dare to ......" Sang Jun immediately bowed: "The lower official just abides by his duty and serves the servants and His Royal Highness!" ”

"This new organization, since it is mainly in charge of industrial and commercial affairs, will be called the Industrial and Commercial Bureau...... Zhang Yue said: "Its specific functions and divisions are set up, and after I return from Chang'an, I will discuss with the Sang Lingzhi......

"No!" Sang Jun nodded.

"As for the officials,......" Zhang Yue said with a smile: "But it is necessary to work hard to order the officials, bring a hundred and ten new people, teach and supervise them......"

The redundant problem of the Xinfeng public examination was solved with the reply from Dasi Nong's side.

As long as the new industrial and commercial bureau is put up on a shelf, let alone a hundred officials, it can be easily digested even if it is several times more.

After all, even the experience of the Han dynasty proves that the institutions that can best digest and accommodate bureaucrats have always been those related to industry and commerce and handicrafts.

You are like Han Shaofu, with hundreds of thousands of employees, so big that you can handle almost everything, and even have your own armament, it's just a bug!

Moreover, now Zhang Yue has countless ways to make money in his head, and he is eager to try.

"Let me take Xinfeng as the base point and try to see if I can make the industrial and commercial tax revenue the government's largest tax revenue before the Western Era!" Zhang Yue thought in his heart.

Does this seem like a bit of a challenge?

But it's not that hard.

Relying on the income of salt and iron, Dasi Nong can surpass the field tax and become the second largest tax source after the calculation of the tax.

In the years when Yang Ke was playing and suing, Dasi Nong's income was even twice as much as the field tax and calculation.

Of course, Yang Ke is killing chickens and taking eggs......

And as a traverser, Zhang Yue understands, and knows very well, what a terrible bureaucracy state-owned enterprises are!

In particular, with Sang Hongyang taking the lead in playing with salt and iron official sales and liquor official sales, he only needs to develop a few products with huge consumption and good profits.

In minutes, several powerful cash cows can be raised in Xinfeng, which can provide a steady stream of profits.

And in this world, as long as there is money, there is nothing that cannot be solved.

If there is, it must be that the money is not enough!

Thinking about these things, Zhang Yue couldn't hold it back.

He couldn't wait to go back to Nanling to see the bamboo he had soaked in the puddle more than two months ago.

Calculate the time, those soaked bamboos are almost ready to come out of the water.

Then you can try to start making white paper before the century, and it is a very high quality book paper!

Even light toilet paper!

and even ...... Luxury-grade rice paper!

These are all profitable deals!

And it can be temporarily monopolized and sold exclusively for goods!

The profits of the paper industry are so large that Zhang Yue intends to operate it as his own industry.

After all, he also has to spend money, and besides, the expenditure is huge!

But it's a win-win!

For example, paper products are put in the catalogue of government commodities and sold by the Xinfeng Industrial and Commercial Department......

Or give it to Dasi Nong to sell......

Then the sister-in-law just needs to lie down and count the money!
