After pondering, Liu Chan said again: "Let's say so! I wondered if it would be possible to establish a number of supply stations in each county, such as granaries, which could be used as military rations in wartime and for the relief of the people in peacetime. ”

"Just as when the harvest is low, the price of grain is low, build a warehouse to buy grain for reserves, wait until the famine is short of grain, and pay the grain at a low price, so as to prevent the famine, and at the same time you can adjust the supply, after all, the price of things in addition to its own price, the quantity can also indirectly determine its current price, this is the so-called scarce is expensive!"

Hearing this, Kong Ming couldn't help but bow his head and think, Liu Chan saw this, smiled slightly, and then said again: "Stabilize the price of grain, in order to achieve the purpose of relief to the victims, in this process, the grain is purchased at a low price, so the price paid by the imperial court is not high, and even a small and medium-sized profit can be made, which can not only stabilize the market, but also increase the income of the imperial court, and will not cause the hostility of the people, on the contrary, the people will be grateful for the relief, and further return to my big man!" ”

"In fact, this method should be regarded as the ordinary law, and there were cases of practice in the former Han Dynasty, but for some reason, it has not been implemented for a long time, and now not many people know it!"

Kong Ming has been in charge of civil affairs and financial power in Shuzhong for many years, and after a little thought, he knows that this policy is reasonable, practical, and it is really possible to achieve a win-win situation for the court and the people as Liu Chan expected.

With this method, it can not only alleviate the situation of rising prices today, but also prevent market instability in the future, Kong Ming couldn't help but be overjoyed, and after being happy, he looked up at Liu Chan's young face, and couldn't help but be more surprised in his heart, it was hard for him to imagine that this young master, who had worried him a lot, could come up with this strategy.

If the previous whimsical ideas were his whims, then this Changping method is a real embodiment of wisdom, a young man less than twenty years old, actually familiar with the economic market, surprised but more gratifying, after all, the more wise the young master, the greater the hope for the revival of the Han Dynasty!

didn't know what Kong Ming was thinking at this time, Liu Chan just looked at Kong Ming's expression and couldn't stop laughing.

"No matter how talented you Kong Ming is, can you still compare to others in all aspects? In terms of economy alone, I don't believe that Liu Yan, who is famous for his financial management for hundreds of years in later generations! ”

"Father, these can only play a delaying role, if you want to completely eradicate the misfortune caused by the hundred-baht coin, you must restore the five-baht coin system! And to restore the five baht money, what I currently lack in Shu is copper ore, copper ore is a treasure of mineral resources, Wei Wu is also lacking, so if we want to have enough mineral resources, we can only rely on ourselves, we must organize a survey team as soon as possible to find copper ore in all parts of Shuzhong, to mine! ”

According to Liu Chan's understanding, since Dong Zhuo's rebellion minted a lot of money, until the formation of the Three Kingdoms situation, all forces have actually implemented the method of minting new coins, but the denominations are different.

As for the copper mine, Liu Chan does not know whether this world is the same as his own world geology, according to Liu Chan's memory, Sichuan actually has copper mines, Yunnan copper, should not have been discovered yet, after all, the survey geology of this era is based on the color and humidity of the renovated soil to judge, although there is some basis, but after all, it is not accurate, and the error is very large.

"No!" ……

"Our Majesty is getting more and more surprised!" In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Shangshu Deng Zhi, and Yang Yi, who joined the Prime Minister's Mansion, were all greatly sighed when they heard Kong Ming talk about Liu Chan's Changping Law.

Kong Ming sat on the main seat, and also sighed a little, "Yes, for more than ten years, we have not found out that Your Majesty has such talent, but it has made us secretly worried and worried, for fear that the great cause will be difficult to achieve, and now it seems that we are too worried!" ”

Yang Yi said with a smile: "The prime minister is concerned about the safety of the world, and it is normal to ignore His Majesty, who was still the crown prince in the past, for a while, not only the prime minister, but I am afraid that there are still many ministers in the court who do not know Your Majesty's great talent!" ”

"Yes, Prime Minister, in the end, this is also my luck after all!" Deng Zhi echoed.

Kong Ming smiled even more, and then said: "You two are reasonable, Bo Miao, now that the price instability in Shuzhong has its own way, a certain has also notified Dong Yun that Meng Guang will confiscate the excess copper coins in the market and stabilize prices, just waiting to find a new copper mine, then you can recast the five baht coins, completely solve the economic problems in Shuzhong, and you should also set off north to Hanzhong with peace of mind, after all, Your Majesty attaches great importance to the strategic deployment of Hanzhong, and we should fully support our courtiers!" ”

"No, a certain outfit has been packed, and you can leave for Hanzhong after saying goodbye to the prime minister today!" Deng Zhi arched his hand.

Got up and took out a bunch of bamboo slips from the bookshelf next to him, Kong Ming slowly walked in front of Deng Zhi, and said in a somewhat heavy tone: "Since the first emperor failed in the Eastern Expedition last year, the former Shangshu Ling Lord has gone, Liang knows that the spearhead of our army in the next step should not continue to point eastward, but need to look north, in order to achieve great causes!" And Hanzhong is the gateway of Western Shu, governed by Zhang Lu of Wudoumi Taoism, and all kinds of conditions are really good, enough to undertake the heavy task of the front station of the Northern Expedition. ”

"For several months, in his spare time, he has been reading ancient books and government decrees, and has drawn this water conservancy topographic map, which clearly shows how to divert water for irrigation; This policy tells the story of the construction of the granary in Hanzhong, Bo Miao, you need to set up granaries in Nanzheng, Chuyang, Chenggu, Anyang, Xicheng, and Xixian under Hanzhong, and actively prepare grain. ”

"Go north to Hanzhong, pass through Zitong, and order Xiang Lang to build a granary in Zitong, so as to be used for the transit of grain and grass in Chengdu and Hanzhong! Bo Miao should remember that the granaries of Nanzheng, Chuyang, Chenggu, and Xicheng are larger, but there is no need to store grain in advance, so as not to raid and intercept grain by the Wei army! ”

Hearing this, Deng Zhi kept nodding his head, "What the prime minister said, if you remember it in your heart, you will live up to the prime minister's expectations!" ”

Kong Ming smiled heartily: "Bo Miao, I know that you are cautious by nature and do things safely, so I will entrust this great task to you, as far as Liang knows, Cao Zhen has been sulking since he retired and returned to Luoyang, and he wants to make a comeback, just because of the internal instability of Wei, he can't do anything, and at the same time, the northern part of Wei is not calm, it has entered the cold winter, and the Huns will inevitably have some shortage of grain, and they will inevitably go south to attack and harass, with Zhang He's temperament, he will never be indifferent, and he will definitely send troops to the Wei court. ”

"And the person in command will be Cao Zhen, as short as half a year, or as long as two or three years, and the Wei State will definitely go south flawlessly! However, there are no absolutes, and when preparing for Hanzhong, you also need to pay attention to the northern trends from time to time! ”

"So-and-so wrote it down!" Deng Zhi said respectfully.

"The land of Hanzhong, Liang has only been there when he was young, and it is inevitable that there will be some differences at this time, if Bo Miao finds something contrary to what Liang said in the book, he can report it first!"

Hearing this, Deng Zhi couldn't help but be stunned, this is a great power, absolute trust, the prime minister is not afraid that he will mess up, thinking of this, he can't help but secretly decide in his heart, he must do his best to properly arrange Hanzhong!
