Chapter 13: Problem Solving
Shen Congrong glanced at the people present, and bragged one by one, that North China is theirs, and now sitting here, they are only from North China.
"Why don't you talk anymore, aren't you quite good at talking just now?"
It is true that the harvest in the past few years has not been good, the people cannot pay taxes, and they themselves are not satisfied.
In the past few years, it has been peaceful, and if there is a war, the most basic guarantees of the soldiers cannot be solved.
This has simply become a big trouble for Shen Congrong, and he has always been worried about this matter.
Zhao Yunjin looked up at the people under the seat, all of them were wearing military uniforms, and they all looked quite energetic, but the drooping head looked like a frosted eggplant, wilted.
Why is it still cold, is it that everyone can't think of a good way, or has all the methods been vetoed by the general?
"Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty dug the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in order to go down to the south of the Yangtze River to play, which was both manpower and material resources at that time." Zhao Yunjin shook his head with regret as he spoke.
"Men talk, what kind of body do you interject as a woman." A military commander with a big waist and a round waist stood up and accused Zhao Yunjin.
"Commander Wu, you sit down first." General Shen said to the man.
Seeing that the general said this, he couldn't help but give General Shen face, so he had to sit down.
"You go on." Shen Congrong looked at Zhao Yunjin with confidence on his face, he seemed to be sure that Zhao Yunjin would think of a good idea.
"Later, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal was a good thing for the people, driving the prosperity around the canal, facilitating people's travel, and becoming an important transportation hub." Zhao Yunjin said, looking at Shen Congrong.
"What do you mean?" Shen Congrong asked.
"There is a drought in the north, a flood in the south, why don't we transport water from the south to the north, so that both the flood in the south and the drought in the north are solved." Zhao Yunjin said calmly.
As soon as these words came out, some people immediately stood up against them.
"It's really a woman's kindness, this is water, not rice and wheat or anything like that, how do you transport it to the north, what do you transport, buckets?"
"Hahaha."
Just now, the commander of Wu once again stood up to refute Zhao Yunjin, and the others laughed when they heard this.
"Dig channels, repair sluices, this year is a drought in the north, floods in the south, if there is a drought in the south in the future, floods in the north, channels and sluices can be used, just like I just said the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, it seems to be a thankless thing, in fact, it is once and for all, you can guarantee when there is a drought and when it is waterlogged, you can ensure where it is dry and where it is waterlogged, only this method is a way once and for all."
"In addition, if we want to have sufficient grain depots, we must encourage laborers to cultivate farmland, and the way to encourage them to cultivate farmland is to reduce farmers' taxes, raise the price of agricultural products, build water conservancy, and ensure people's livelihood."
Zhao Yunjin said at such a long time, which made Commander Wu who had just refuted her ashamed.
The commanders who laughed at Zhao Yunjin were also silent.
There were even people who gave Zhao Yunjin a thumbs up and praised her again and again.
"What do you think of this?" General Shen looked at everyone and said.
"It's a great idea." Immediately someone stood up and said.
"I think it's doable." Commander Wu nodded in agreement.
General Shen arranged the next things for everyone one by one, so that everyone could start to do it immediately and solve the problems of drought and flood in the two places as soon as possible.
After the matter was dealt with, they all dispersed, leaving only General Shen and Zhao Yunjin in the study.
Shen Congrong handed Zhao Yunjin a key: "Go and help me take out the chapter in the second drawer of the bookcase." ”
Zhao Yunjin was stunned for a moment, saw that General Shen was concentrating on writing, and handed the key to Zhao Yunjin without raising his head.
She reached for the key, walked over to the bookcase, and opened the second drawer, where she saw a file bag with a small box pressed on top of it.
Zhao Yunjin opened the box, picked up the general's chapter, and then handed the chapter to General Shen.
After General Shen stamped the seal on his document, he returned the seal to Zhao Yunjin.
Zhao Yunjin returned to the bookcase with the chapter in his hand and put the chapter into the small box.
She glanced back at the general, who was still writing with his head down, and didn't take Zhao Yunjin to heart at all.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhao Yunjin hurriedly picked up the file bag and took a look.
Seeing the words "military defense documents" written on the file bag, Zhao Yunjin's heart tightened, and he was a little excited.
She quietly put the file bag back, put it away with the chapter, and locked the drawer.
Back at the General's desk, she returned the key to the General.
The general seemed unwary of her, and he took the key, and held it in a book in the drawer of his desk.
Zhao Yunjin saw all this, and her heart was pounding at this time, that was the purpose of her coming here, and she would soon be able to leave the General's Mansion.
"You're smart, much smarter than I thought you would." General Shen said without raising his head.
If it weren't for the fact that there were only two of them in the room, Zhao Yunjin wouldn't have known that this sentence was addressed to her.
But pondering this sentence repeatedly, Zhao Yunjin was shocked, what does this mean?
Seeing that Zhao Yunjin didn't answer, General Shen raised his head with a smile and said, "Thank you for helping me come up with a good solution." ”
Zhao Yunjin laughed a little embarrassedly, she didn't have the heart to chat with the general now.
Because of something in her heart, Zhao Yunjin didn't eat dinner, and stayed in the room all the time until the middle of the night, and in the dead of night, she began to act.
After getting dressed, she quietly came to the outside of General Shen's study, but it was so late, and there were still guards on duty at the door.
Zhao Yunjin was a little restless at this time, she could use General Shen as a guise during the day and walk in blatantly, but at this time, how should she get in?
Just as she was thinking about how to get in, she suddenly heard a cat meow.
Zhao Yunjin followed the prestige, it was Yu Mimi.
The two guards on duty were a little sleepy, yawning one after the other, and if it weren't for the standing, I am afraid they would have fallen asleep a long time ago.
Suddenly, a noise was heard not far ahead, and the two guards immediately became vigilant, and they carried their guns and walked in the direction of the sound.
Zhao Yunjin hid in the darkness and saw that the two guards had already left the gate, so she took this opportunity and hurriedly ran in.
The two guards approached and saw that it was actually the sound of a cat, and when they saw that there was nothing unusual around, they returned to the place where they were standing.
Zhao Yunjin had already been here twice, and although it was dark at this time, she was still able to follow the moonlight and come to General Shen's study.
