In September, the land of Guanzhong was golden.

The spring wheat, which was urgently sown this spring, is finally ripe.

Da Sima Mansion ordered: All officials of Ji Han should take out at least one rest day to cut wheat during the entire spring wheat harvest period!

As soon as this order came out, although the officials of Shu Han had some fragmentary thoughts in their mouths, they basically did not resist. And the officials left over from the Wei and Jin dynasties in the past, everyone complained bitterly. They all expressed their unacceptability.

It's a pity that now Da Sima is saying the same thing in Dahan, and it is difficult to accept it. Didn't you see that Da Sima had already gone to the field himself? Don't talk about Da Sima, even the prince himself went to the field.

"Why is the family here? The lower officials are talking about all the officials, and you are the king. ”

"Hehehe, Da Sima, when I used to read "Mencius" alone, when I saw the sentence 'born in sorrow and died in peace', although I was touched, I only felt it. Six years ago, after experiencing the crisis of the country's demise, I really realized the deep meaning of this sentence. I think it's because of the events of that year that Da Sima will ask all the officials of Dahan to go to the fields to cut wheat today, right? ”

Hehe, this is because in the era I traveled through, everyone liked to put on a show.

However, if the officials don't even put on a show, then the country is really dying.

"Da Sima, after Lone came to Chang'an, he walked around Guanzhong. It's a lot. ”

"Please tell me at home."

"Not to mention anything else, it's Yongliang's official style, it's really too far worse than Yizhou. Therefore, the "Examination Law" formulated by Da Sima before is really far-sighted. The newly established Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) is also very necessary. As for the matter of cutting wheat, the officials of Yizhou in the past have now come to Guanzhong, and they immediately went down to the fields after hearing the order of the great Sima. Although there were many jokes when I arrived at the field, I also cut the wheat by myself. What about the children of the local families in Yongliang? Forced by the strict orders of the Great Sima, they all went to the field. But what did they do when they got to the edge of the field? Drink and have fun. It's coming out of the autumn outing! Lone went all the way to inspect it, and when he found it, he drove them down to the field on the spot. But they went down to the field for less than a quarter of an hour, and the wheat was not cut, and all of them collapsed in the field and could not get up! ”

Hehe, that's because you haven't seen the Kanto family. Let them go to the fields? I'm afraid I'll die on the spot and put a few of them for you to see!

"So, family, this is the drawbacks brought about by the implementation of the Jiupin Zhongzheng system for many years."

"Exactly. When I was in Yizhou before, I also thought about whether I still need to adhere to the inspection system after my Han entered Yongliang. Now it seems that it is not only necessary to adhere to it, but also to improve it, and it is also necessary for the ICAC to strictly investigate the shortcomings in the system. ”

"What the family says is very true."

"Da Sima, Lone in Chengdu can see it very clearly. Without Da Sima, Da Han would have died a long time ago. Without Da Sima, the Northern Expedition could not succeed. Without Da Sima, Yongliang can't ...... peace"

"The family said this, and the minister was a little frightened."

"Da Sima." Liu Chen's eyes stared at Guan Yi tightly: "Gu was just an idle prince before, and he has never been cultivated as a generation of kings. So those emperors really can't. Not only no, but also extremely disliked. That's why Lone has always liked to tell the truth. In Lonely, there are indeed some people muttering, saying that Da Sima has made such a great contribution, and it is inevitable that the merit will be high. For a long time, it is difficult to say what the surname of this big man is. But in Lone's view, reviving the Han Dynasty is more important than anything else. You can't just revive the Han family in order to prevent your courtiers from making great contributions, right? ”

Belch...... In fact, there are really many such emperors in later generations.

"Besides, if Da Sima wants to do things, how can he not have authority in his hands? Therefore, Da Sima wants to seize power, as long as he can do things well, Lone has no opinion. A little gossip, please don't care! ”

"The meaning of the family, the minister understands."

"Hmm...... Lonely's surname is Liu, and His Majesty is the monarch's father. So, that's all Lone can say. Next, after the autumn harvest, Lone is ready to travel to Liangzhou, and if possible, maybe he will go to the Western Regions to take a walk and have a look. ”

"Good, read 10,000 books, travel 10,000 miles. Walking around the family is really preparing for taking over the country in the future. This is much more practical than the study of the Emperor's Mind Technique. ”

……

In the evening, the Great Sima Mansion.

Guan Yi sat on the main seat, followed by Mi Zhao, Simple, Ma Guo, and Zhao Yi.

Most of the elders of the Fuxing Society are located in various parts of the town, and these people are the only ones in the center of Chang'an. Among these four people, Mi takes care of money, simply manages the people, Ma Guo is in charge of intelligence, and Zhao Yi is in charge of the army. The four major blocks of financial power, administrative power, military power, and intelligence are in hand. Guan Da Sima is naturally as safe as a rock.

Oh, by the way, there's also a guard Chang Gu Ning. But he didn't want to take part in these conspiracies. Anyway, when necessary, where Guan Yi pointed, he could rush wherever he went.

"This is what the prince told me this morning in the wheat field. It seems that the prince has also received the news. ”

"Hehe, what the hell is the prince. There must be a family that bets on the crown prince. Slowly, the prince also had his own news channels around him. However, the power around the prince should be very small, because none of us are fully aware of it. ”

"So, even the prince has received the news. Our Majesty is not a man. ”

"Hehehe, that emerging king has been very bad lately, jumping up and down in the alien camp. Are you afraid that others won't know that he's going to do something? ”

After everyone laughed with relaxed expressions for a while, Guan Yi clapped his hands gently: "Bo Yao, how is this year's autumn harvest in Yizhou?" ”

"Fabulous. After the popularization of ploughing cattle and curved ploughs, the area of single work has increased significantly. After potatoes are widely grown, most of them are high yields. This year, millions of acres of new rice have been promoted, and the yield per mu has also increased by two to three percent. But the specific numbers or something, it will take a little time to count. ”

"Good, change it, what about Yongliang?"

"At present, the spring wheat harvest in Guanzhong has just begun, and the specific number has not yet been counted. Looking at the wheat fields near Chang'an, it is the impact of the drought that the average yield per mu is definitely less than that of the previous year. But thanks to the improvement of ploughing cattle and tillage tools, there will not be much less. ”

"Well, you two might give me an estimate. This year's harvest, after deducting the reserves, military rations, and seeds, can the storage exceed 20 million stones. ”

After Mi Zhao and Ma Guo glanced at each other, they both arched their hands: "Da Sima, the grain stock can definitely exceed 20 million stones." The money is no less than seven billion. ”

"Very good, Jian Wushuang, do you have any big moves here this year and before next year's autumn harvest?"

"Hehehe, it depends on how much food my brother is willing to take. If the money and food are sufficient, the expected major projects on the side of the governor of the prefecture are: 1. Build 17 new Mongolian schools, covering the other 17 Yongliang counties in addition to Jingzhao County. 2. Start construction of the straight road from Chang'an to Wuyuan County. Third, set up ziplines in various mountain ranges in Longshan. Fourth, dredge the channel of the Wei River in Longshan to see if it can achieve direct navigation from Chang'an. Fifth, all the six roads in the Qinling Mountains will be hardened with cement. It is convenient for Yizhou and Yongliang to connect. 6. Build a cement road from Chang'an to Qinchuan to improve the transportation ...... between the Han Dynasty and the Western Regions"

"Hey, hey." After listening to Jian Wushuang's ambitious construction plan, Guan Yi smiled noncommittally: "What about Guowei, what new projects do you have over there?" ”

"Brother, in view of the complete improvement of my Han finances after this year's autumn harvest. The military wants to be able to expand its military. The Great General, the General of the Che Cavalry, the General of Wei, and the Order of the Commanders all made this clear to the last general. ”

"Well, how much do they want to expand?"

"Brother, thanks to the complete resettlement of the Jin captives and the smooth clearing of household taxes this spring. The data that the younger brother saw on the brother of Gai is that the current registered population of the three states of Yongliangyi in the Han Dynasty has risen to 2.53 million. The meaning of the general and others is that they know that their brother has no plans to go east in the near future, so they don't have to expand the army to 200,000 in one go. Can we expand the standing army by 20,000 and increase the number of standing troops to 150,000? You need to know that the current population of Wu is not as good as that of my Han Dynasty, and the number of its standing army is also more than 200,000. ”

"Very good, the general finally knows how to sympathize with the people." complained slightly about Jiang Wei in front of his comrades. Guan Yi said: "That's it, Jian Wushuang, your six." Articles 1, 2 and 5 shall be implemented. The remaining three are suspended. You make a plan as soon as possible. Then it was handed over to Bo Yao for review. ”

"Uh, okay."

"Guowei, what about your side, the expansion of the army is suspended."

"Brother?"

"Listen to me."

"No, please show it to my brother."

"Ladies and gentlemen, your Majesty is now becoming more and more impatient with us. You're going to get ready to do it to me. As for me, I also hope that Your Majesty can make a move, so that it can be quiet for many years. Therefore, Guowei, you have to control Yulin firmly for me in Chang'an! Don't involve your energy when it comes to army expansion. ”

"Yes!"

"Guys, I'll say it again. If I had any intention of usurping the Han Dynasty, I would have directly asked His Majesty to abdicate after returning to Chengdu after the victory of Yang'an Guan, instead of replacing the crown prince. Therefore, my ambition is only to learn from the prime minister, control the country's politics, and restore the Han dynasty. Therefore, if Your Majesty wants to do something against me, of course I will not sit idly by, but the strength of the counterattack must be controlled. Don't make all the prestige of the royal family gone. ”

"I'll take the order."

"Well, in addition to the things here in Chang'an, I plan to do three major things this year and next year."

"Please show me my brother (Da Sima)."

"The first is, of course, to promote the improvement of the ICAC and establish the authority of the ICAC. The second is to encourage childbearing. In view of the improvement in the country's finances this year. Therefore, if next year's autumn harvest can maintain this year's level, I would like to cancel the calculation and oral allowance for men under the age of 20 and women under the age of 16. Late marriage tax was levied instead. ”

"Late marriage tax?"

"Well, this can be regarded as learning the Chen method of Emperor Gao back then. A man is over twenty years old, and a woman is unmarried after sixteen years old. In addition to the normal collection of calculation and oral tax, double the amount of oral tax is also levied. In addition, if a woman gives birth to two children, the state does not reward her. Starting from the third child, for each additional child, the state will give out an additional five stone of grain every year. ”

"Well, my brother has reduced the poll tax on the one hand, and on the other hand, he has supplemented the food for families with many children. It will definitely stimulate the people to be willing to have children. Just to see the effect, it is estimated that it will be twenty years later. ”

"Hahaha, yes, maybe at that time, my Han had already dominated the country. But so what? You and I both know from Ling Bo's letters that the fifteen states of the Han Dynasty do not represent the whole world. ”

My brother is very reasonable. And what about the third big thing? ”

"Hehehe, I'm going to find something to do for Sima Yan. Moreover, I can't say it, Sun Hao's guy will also get involved. ”
