Chapter 70: Three Strategies for Callitating Disasters
"Grass people, there are three strategies for calming disasters, dedicated to saints."
Li Shimin sat up a little straighter, his eyebrows and eyes were a little cautious, motioned to the secretary to record, and said, "Let's talk about it." ”
Qin Hao bowed solemnly and said: "The first policy of the grass people is called work for relief, and the grain is replaced by wages, which can not only save the labor of the people in the coming year, but also find something to do for the victims. ”
Li Shimin nodded and exclaimed: "Du Aiqing has already written an excerpt on this matter and sent it as it is, you have done a good job, Fang Qing also highly recognized this matter, and thought that when there is a famine in the future, you can do things according to this method." ”
Qin Hao said: "The benefits are not only that, but also the significance of economic regulation and control after the scale of work-for-relief is formed, and at the same time, we can also exchange the food to be distributed to the victims for food stamps, which can even exercise the role of a part of the currency in this special period to promote local economic development." ”
Li Er was a little stunned when he heard it, many concepts are through thousands of years, even if Qin Hao tried his best to express it in words that the Tang Dynasty people could understand, it was still a little deeper, even with the IQ of the first emperor through the ages, he only knew a little about it.
Under normal circumstances, Li Er is an emperor who is not ashamed to ask, but Qin Hao's expression when he said these words was particularly natural, as if he was saying something that should be done, coupled with his age when he had just entered puberty, Li Shimin was really a little embarrassed to ask what local economic development was.
Secretly said: It's okay, it's a big deal to let Xuan Ling consult with him in detail, and I will ask Xuan Ling for advice.
Qin Hao continued: "The minister thinks that the disaster of natural disasters is the first in the hearts of the people, and the hearts of the victims are steady, and this disaster is almost over, and what the court does, for the people, there is nothing like going out to work all day and sweating profusely to go home with the rations of the family, which can make them feel more at ease." ”
Li Er said: "It's just... What kind of project can accommodate millions of victims? How much national money will be spent on such a huge project? The imperial court is already quite stretched thin just for food relief, and if it is built on a large scale, it is really a little powerless. ”
There is a sentence that Li Er is embarrassed to say, the treasury was originally a bit of a family, but unfortunately it was taken away by a Turkic trip last year.
Qin Hao said with a smile: "The construction of a large number of projects does not necessarily cost money, and besides, some projects will be apportioned to the conscription if they are not done now, which will only increase the difficulties of the people." ”
Li Shimin's expression was more solemn at this time, and his waist was already straight, in a standard kneeling posture, and said, "Specifically." ”
With the change of Li Shimin's sitting posture, Qin Hao also had to change with him, and the kings of other people sat so standardly, they couldn't still sit loosely and loosely with the person who offered the advice, which made Qin Hao suffer.
In the Tang Dynasty, it was true that he was sitting and chatting, but this standard kneeling was really not ordinarily uncomfortable, the butt had to sit on the heels, but the upper body needed to be vertical, you can refer to the Wa Kingdom, this feeling is not much different from kneeling on the washboard, for people like Qin Hao who have never received this kind of training, it is simply a living sin.
Enduring the severe pain in his knees, Qin Hao said uncomfortably: "There are still a lot, the saint has never been defeated in the battlefield in his life, but he was forced to sign an alliance with Jieli Khan last year, I want to have a war with the Turks, this whole army war, ordnance is the top priority, Luoyang to Chang'an water conservancy is convenient, why not move the prison to Luoyang, to work with the disaster people, if it is handed over to the grass people to do, only 30,000 households can ensure 100,000 arrows per day, and it can also solve the difficulty of food and clothing for these 30,000 households." In addition to arrows, the armor can also be handed over to Luoyang to do, of course, the court has to give the skin. ”
Li Er pondered while listening, he wanted to be ashamed of the Turks, this is no secret in the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, but this preparation for war has always been in Guanzhong, especially the craftsman never came out of Chang'an, so he really didn't think that things could still be played like this. Those high-tech weapons such as armor and Mo knives naturally still have to be placed in Chang'an, but bows and arrows, armor, these can be put in Luoyang.
Qin Hao remembered reading an article in his previous life that said that when Song Taizong attacked Jinyang, he shot out three million arrows in just one morning, although Qin Hao didn't know how many arrows the Tang Dynasty used, but if he wanted to fight with the Turks, nearly a million people would fight, so he had to prepare tens of millions.
Li Shimin couldn't sit still a little when he heard this, his hands were clenched into fists, and his eyes were full of excitement.
"In addition, the grass people think that some civilian workshops can also be appropriately built among the disaster victims, and there are tens of millions of laborers, so why can't they make money? Do you have to point to the appropriation of the imperial court? Taking silk weaving as an example, the imperial court provided raw silk, and the victims were surrounded by silk, and the grain intended for disaster relief was sent down as wages. ”
Li Er rubbed his temples, the amount of information in this meeting is a bit large, he really can't change it, Qin Hao is too tired to sit, he hurriedly finished speaking, his words have become more and more powerful, and he will inevitably lose a little respect, but he has no intention of blaming at all, but he feels like a spring breeze.
The secretary was already sweating, and Li Shimin could understand all the things Qin Hao said, but he couldn't even understand the five CDs, but he also knew that this was a word for word, because he didn't understand it very well, so he didn't dare to change a word, as Qin Hao's speed of speech accelerated, his hands were almost wasted, and his handwriting was scribbled a lot, but Qin Hao didn't care about his meaning at all, and continued:
"The second policy of the minister lies in the door valves in this world, these gate valves have been spoiled for hundreds of years, every year of natural disasters are the people, and the earners are them, even with the wisdom of the saints, it is impossible to overdo it suddenly, otherwise it is easy to hurt the foundation of our dynasty, in this case, why not block for sparse, by the court to guide these gate valves to make money, is there no other way to make money except hoarding, buying land cheaply, and forcing the good to be slaves? Of course not, this requires the guidance of the imperial court. ”
"How can the gate valve family make money in the disaster year, and the victims of the disaster will also benefit, and even the court will benefit from it? The grass people think that they can start with work for relief, these people's biological resources, the people use them as workshops, most of them are in the hands of these family valves, and every household has a shortage of labor in the busy agricultural season on weekdays, and now there are more than one million laborers in Luoyang City, but their workshops are not in Luoyang, so let's move them over. ”
"Luoyang City after the rebellion at the end of the Sui Dynasty, there are a lot of abandoned places, and even the former Sui Imperial Palace was burned clean by you, so good places are now growing grass, what a pity, you have a royal pen in hand, you want to grant it to whomever you want, the workshops of the gate valve families are all built there, the imperial court is easy to manage, they can also form a small industrial cluster area, promote economic output at the same time, the imperial court is also good to collect processing taxes, Luoyang's water conservancy extends in all directions, fools are not happy, In this way, these gate valves are equivalent to helping disaster relief in disguise and reducing the pressure on the imperial court, but they also got land in Luoyang to build a new workshop, and the imperial court increased taxes, and even how to divide those lands, to whom to distribute them, whether to collect money, etc., there is also a lot to do. ”
