Naleng asked, "Then tell me, what should I do?" ”

Lenta's eyes lit up and he said, "Open up sales channels, and our court will help." ”

"How to open up sales? Isn't it possible to sell it to the south of the Tianjiang River? Nalen asked.

Renta smiled and said, "That's impossible. The market that the minister wanted to open up was the ten vassal states in the west. They are now all buying daily necessities from the Huahan Dynasty. Since these small countries are vassal states of our Great Yang Dynasty, they must listen to us. The Holy Lord wants to order that they are not allowed to trade with the Huahan Dynasty, but only with our Dayang Dynasty, so won't the sales channel be opened? With a market, people will see that there is money to be made, and they will earn and rush to open a workshop. When the workshop opens, the number of shops will increase.

When the time comes, the merchants of those vassal countries come to buy goods, and they will eat, drink, live and buy in our Dayang Dynasty, so that we craftsmen will make money. When they make money, the court can collect taxes. Shengshang, the ministers looked at the Hua Han Dynasty, and the agricultural taxes were exempted, but the income of their court was still a lot, and it came from this business. It seems that Liu Yong has long seen that business is faster than agriculture to make money.

According to the spies, the biggest policy of the court of the Hua Han Dynasty was to vigorously develop industry. Yes, they call it industry, but in fact it is a development workshop. There were many workshops in the Huahan Dynasty, all kinds. It is said that you will be dazzled by what you can see. On the other hand, in our Dayang Dynasty, this so-called industry cannot be compared! From this point of view, it is not easy for our Dayang Dynasty to catch up with the Huahan Dynasty.

However, as long as we develop the workshop first, it will be fine slowly. Of course, we can't just rely on those vassal states, but also develop our own markets. But this market is to be cultivated, because the people have no money in their hands! From the perspective of the ministers, now our Dayang Dynasty has entered a vicious circle.

Why? In our Dayang Dynasty, most of them were peasants, and we could only count on these peasants to spend money. If the peasants don't have money, they don't have anyone to buy. If no one buys anything, the workshop will go bankrupt. If the workshop goes bankrupt, there is no tax for the imperial court. It's a vicious circle. ”

Hearing this, Na Leng nodded, and said, "Well, what the prime minister said is very reasonable." But what can be done to reverse this vicious circle? ”

Lenta said, "This minister has also thought about it, and he has also studied it with his ministers. The only way to reverse this unfavorable situation is to develop agriculture. Let the peasants have money in their hands first, and they will spend it when they have money, so that it will be solved. The only way to make the peasants rich was to reduce their taxes. Of course, no taxes are the best. But this was a big blow to the income of the imperial court. Therefore, this tax still has to be collected, but it is only collected less, so that these farmers can see hope.

As long as they are willing to farm and have money, they can buy it. In this way, the problem can be reversed. The Holy Lord will definitely ask the ministers, if the agricultural tax is reduced, what will happen to the finances of the imperial court? The minister thought that a court should find a way to reduce expenditure. Make as little money as possible. Second, it was hoped that the vassal states would increase their annual offerings. The other is the cattle and sheep in Mobei.

The minister thought that if these factors were sufficient, the imperial court's finances, which were tight due to the reduction of agricultural taxes, would be able to survive. As long as it can survive a year, when the workshop is opened and the trade is smooth, then the tax revenue of the imperial court will increase, and then the agricultural tax will be raised a little, but not too much. In this way, the entire economy of our Great Yang Dynasty can be regarded as alive. ”

Lenta talked eloquently, and after saying so much, it can be seen that he has worked hard and done his homework. can be regarded as a prime minister who does not disgrace his name.

Naleng was very satisfied when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Prime Minister, when I heard you say these words, it is really like seeing the sun through the clouds, and this state of mind is suddenly enlightened." Hehe. I think all of your strategies are good. So let's do it! ”

Naturally, Lenta was also very happy. He bowed down and said, "Thank you for the praise of the saint, the minister will definitely work hard." ”

Na Leng nodded and said, "Okay, I'll wait for the results next year, and if all the plans are implemented smoothly, then I will personally feast the Prime Minister's family, right in this hall." ”

"Thank you, Holy Lord." Renta said.

Na Leng smiled and said, "Don't thank me first, if you don't get it right, I will still be punished." ”

"Yes, Holy." Renta said again.

At this time, Nalen's extremely depressed mood was also slightly relaxed, smiled, looked at the general who had been a visitor, and said, "General, you, the people who defend it will be handed over to you." Remember, you must keep the land of Middle-earth, which is the foundation of my Great Yang Dynasty. I estimate that the Han army will not always send troops. Your armies must be ready to meet them at any time. There can be no slackness. ”

The great general immediately clasped his chest in his hands, bowed down, and said, "Holy Lord, please rest assured, the last general will not be as light as the previous general." ”

Nalen nodded, and continued, "Remember, you can only defend, not attack. The Han army used the strategy of holding on in Pingliang Prefecture, which led to heavy losses for our army, which was eager to pay for the lost territory. This time, you have defended Middle-earth, and it is victory. When the economy of our Great Yang Dynasty and the income of the imperial court are high, and it has completely entered normal, then it will be the time for our Great Yang Dynasty to fight back. Hua Han Dynasty, Liu Yong, my Naleng will not admit defeat easily. ”

Which general said: "Holy Lord, even if the economy of our imperial court is not good, the Han army will not easily break through our defense line." The last general was not talented, and he also conducted research on the Han army. Their greatest skill is firearms. In particular, the cannon is so powerful that a single shell can kill a whole man. And our army was able to break through its defenses only with the speed of cavalry. In such a rush, it was our cavalry that lost in the end.

Therefore, the last general thought that if he wanted to resist the Han army, he had to find a way to deal with their artillery. The key is how to deal with it. The last general has an idea. That is, with scattered cavalry tactics. These cavalrymen were armed with strong crossbows. Also let them practice how to dodge shells. The last general found that the shells of the Han army's artillery could be seen when they were fired. A single cavalry is easy to dodge.

Moreover, these cavalrymen, from their horses to their soldiers, had to use copper sheets as armor to cover their frontal bodies to prevent the attacks of the Han army's muskets. As long as these cavalry rushed over, they would first kill the Han army that fired the artillery, paralyzing the artillery, and then the ordinary cavalry would attack at lightning speed......
