Liu Hou did not insist anymore and gave up this idea under the persuasion of everyone. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 According to Buqi's proposal to "fish in Yunmengze and its nearby river nets", Liu Hou put forward a proposal to go to sea to fish. After the war, Guan Gongli has been working on building a navy, and after such a long period of construction, this navy has a certain scale.

With a little training, this navy can go to sea to carry out the task of hunting down Sun Deng, Lu Xun and other remnants of Eastern Wu. Liu's proposal was to install fishing nets on the stern of these naval vessels, so that they could be transformed from warships into fishing boats. The officers and men of the navy made cameos as fishermen, and they still had to go to sea, but the purpose of their going to sea became fishing.

At this time, the marine resources are very abundant, and you can catch a lot of fish with a single net. Liu Hou said the concept of the trawler in later generations, if you can install that kind of big trawl on the stern of those large warships, how many fish should you be able to catch!

It's just that this will delay the process of pursuing the remnants of Eastern Wu. Hunting down the former emperor of the enemy country is something that only the current emperor is interested in. As long as the emperor doesn't mind, as ministers, of course, they don't have any opinions on this matter, and they wish they could save some trouble.

For the ministers, the remnants of Soochow who had fled overseas were irrelevant. In their traditional concept, as long as the war on the continent is over, it means that the world has been unified. As for the enemy who fled overseas, it was just a small fight, and it didn't matter at all.

In fact, Liu Hou has always been the only one who has been obsessed with hunting down the remnants of Eastern Wu. In fact, Liu Hou didn't believe that those remnants of Dongwu who had fled overseas to be savages could make any waves, and he had always insisted on pursuing them for another purpose.

He just used this as an excuse to build a navy and develop seafaring, and he wanted to establish maritime supremacy. As for everyone's misunderstanding that he refused to let go of the remnants of Eastern Wu, he didn't care at all and didn't explain.

Hunting down the remnants of Eastern Wu is a very reasonable explanation, and the development of navigation and domination of the sea is simply a fantasy for people now, too illusory, no one believes it at all, and there will definitely be many people who will jump out to stop it and persuade the emperor not to waste the national funds.

He is concealing a seemingly unreliable purpose under a plausible reason, and this reason is impossible to refute or oppose. The identity of the remnants of Eastern Wu is equivalent to the traitors who rebelled, and whoever dared to jump out to persuade the emperor to give up pursuing them was equivalent to an accomplice of the rebels, who could afford this crime?

But now it seems that this plan has to be suspended, in fact, it is not a delay, after all, to build a strong navy to dominate the seas, it is not an overnight thing. The ocean is very dangerous, and if you want to conquer the ocean, you can't do it all at once, you can only slowly explore and slowly accumulate experience.

In fact, when you go out to sea to fish, you can also explore the ocean and accumulate sailing experience. When there is no combat mission, in addition to the surveyors and surveyors, other soldiers are idle, and letting them go fishing can not only increase their sailing experience, but also get a lot of food, which is a matter of killing two birds with one stone.

And just like that, the matter was settled. The development of marine fishing industry is the first step to the ocean, as long as the Han takes this first step, you will soon see the rich resources contained in the ocean, and the great benefits that can be brought to everyone, at that time, there will be people in the private sector to take the initiative to organize to explore the ocean.

The ancients were talking about the four shocks that were actually just about deterring the surrounding countries on land, but Liu Hou was not satisfied with just dominating the continent, his goal was not only to dominate the continent, but also to dominate the sea. And this long-term goal starts with the establishment of an ocean fishing team!

The meeting didn't end until late at night, and the cabinet ministers came out with more than a dozen measures. Each of these measures cannot completely change the current situation of food shortage in the Han Dynasty, and each of them can only play a partial role at best, but the effect that more than a dozen measures can play when used together is amazing. These dozen or so measures were taken here and dug a little there, and a large amount of food was quickly raised, and the food shortage crisis of Dahan was lifted in this way.

Among these dozen measures, two of them played the greatest role, the first was Ma Liang's strategy of "borrowing grain", that is, the magistrates came forward to borrow their idle grain on credit from the local large households.

This time, the two sides borrowed the grain completely voluntarily, and the magistrate had to sign a contract with those large households who were willing to lend the grain, and the two sides agreed to return the grain in full after the autumn harvest next year, and at the same time pay a small amount of interest.

In order to put an end to the idea of those unscrupulous officials going up ~ down ~ their ~ hands and fighting those grain and big households, Liu Hou ordered the supervision of the imperial history all over the country to open their eyes and do a good job of supervision.

Since Liu~Clan~Father~Son's reputation among the people is very good, and it is synonymous with Renjun, many big families trust the government and are willing to respond to the call of the imperial court and lend some of their idle grain to the government.

In fact, lending grain to the government is also good for them, first, they can earn some interest, although it is not much, but anyway, those grain hoarded in the barn is also put, accidentally it will be eaten by insects or mildew, it is better to take it out and lend it to the government to earn some interest.

In addition, there is another problem that grain has a certain shelf life, and if it is left for a long time, it will become stale grain, and it will become unpalatable. The solution is to sell the old grain on a regular basis and buy new grain for storage.

In this process of buying and selling, there is a lot of loss, after all, the price of old grain sold will definitely be low, and the price of new grain will be much higher, and the difference between the two is not small, so those landlords will lose a lot of money that makes them suffer in the process of rotating old and new grain every year.

If these old grains are lent to the government, and when the harvest comes up next year, the government will return the newly harvested grain to the big households, and the big households will be able to rotate the old and new grains for free, and not only for free, but also for some interest, why not?

If this method is so good, why didn't they do it before? In the past, they were reluctant to do this because they were worried about the credibility of the government, and it was strange that those officials saw such a large amount of wealth in front of them.

At that time, they were most worried about whether the borrowed grain would go or not be returned, but now it is different, and the officialdom of the new Han Dynasty is completely different from the official government of any previous dynasty. Today's officials are horribly incorruptible, and it is rare to see such phenomena as corruption and bribery, and oppression of the people.

Moreover, every place has a yamen supervising the imperial history, and the yamen supervising the imperial history and the yamen of the magistrate are not in the same place at all, and the supervising imperial history master inside is not under the jurisdiction of the magistrate.
