Chapter 7 Road Obstacles
When the Wu and the two were secretly observing the march of the elite coalition army, Wang Yue's car was at the forefront of the marching procession, and Shen Dao and Zhao Wu were both riding on it.
"Childe, if he returns to the country one day, many things can be handed over to the merchants in the country, whether it is for the country or the army, power can be delegated to them, and they can do business to meet the needs of some countries and the army. ”
In this way, as far as a country and an army are concerned, a lot of unnecessary administration can be saved, and administrative links can be reduced, and the corruption that may exist among officials and non-commissioned officers in each link can also be eliminated. ‘
"In this way, we only need to collect enough money and food, and we can get all kinds of goods in the world from the hands of merchants who travel in the world, such as the horses of Beidi, the salt of Cai and Huai, the swords of Yue, the iron of Jing, and the chariots, bows, and crossbows of Chen. ”
"Mr. Shen's law is good. Zhao Wu listened to it on the side and said: "But if I am one of these merchants, holding some defective materials and having no place to sell them, but I bribe the officials in charge of procurement and promise them half a profit, then most of the officials and officials will allow it." ”
"In this way, we spend money, but we may not get what we want, and what we get is some defective products. ”
"Dare to ask about this, sir, but you have considered it?"
Shen Zhi nodded slightly, Zhao Wu said so, in other words, he may think that Zhao Wu is deliberately targeted, and there is a suspicion of provocation, but he has also joined Wang Yue's command for a short time, and he already has some understanding of Zhao Wu, knowing that he is Wang Yue's right and left hand, and his personal ability, wisdom and even all aspects are superior people, and he is also pragmatic in speaking and doing things, so he knows that he is talking about things, and the current problems raised are also things that must happen in the implementation of this law.
After a little thought, he said: "This is exactly what I want to say next, since this law is practiced, the goods and merchants have already benefited from it, and they dare to act in this way, they should be punished with the rule of law, and those who dare to damage the power of a country to enrich the interests of one person should also be severely punished, so as to have a deterrent effect." ”
Zhao Wu nodded and said: "But Mr. Shen, all kinds of materials in our country are bought from various countries, if we have a good relationship with other countries, then it is fine, if it is not good, what if the country bans the sale of our country? At that time, we will not be able to buy it with money, won't we have nothing to use?"
Shen Zhi replied: "What Mr. Zhao said is very true, but the work is the foundation, the business is for use, even if the business is prosperous, how can the work be abolished, our country is not only to use the circulation of goods to procure from the outside, but also to expand the domestic industries, and use this channel to sell all kinds of output." ”
"In this way, our country can not only obtain the difference in price and collect taxes from the circulation of goods, but also the sale of this work output is also a large and considerable income, and this income will also make more people work, and they will be more active in this matter. ”
"In this way, the two ways of industry and commerce complement each other. ”
Zhao Wu nodded, and then asked: "But they all go to work and business, who still goes to farm?" I think this is the foundation of a country, just imagine, if there is no food, even food can not be eaten, what is the use of those workers and businessmen?"
"Not really. Shen said: "I think that all the workers who produce can be attributed to the work system, and agriculture is a part of the work, and it should be responded to by the system of works, but the system of agriculture in the world is too far behind the work of various countries." ”
"In the manor system of the lower kingdom of the world, the farmers and the workers under the command of the merchants are incomparable in their own work in terms of their own enthusiasm and all aspects, so if the agricultural work can be completely fortified, then the harvest of the world's agricultural work must still have great potential to be discovered. ”
As he spoke, he asked Wang Yuetan, "Childe, what do you think?"
Wang Yue retracted his gaze from the front and said, "Brother Shen's words are very reasonable. ”
"In fact, regarding the agricultural fortification, my Linan Manor has been implemented, and the benefits of industry and commerce are also prosperous, and it is for the future restoration of the country to verify the accumulation and amendment, otherwise any new law will be implemented, and all kinds of problems will inevitably be avoided in the process. ”
Shen Zhi thought for a while, nodded and said: "Gongzi is reasonable, this kind of problem, my Legalist has encountered it in Xu Guo, and many good laws are good, but because they touch the interests of doctors and samurai, their yang and yin are violated, and they have changed slightly, but it has become a law to exploit the people." ”
He sighed lightly and said, "In the end, the resentment of the people fell on the head of my Legalist school, which forced the entire school to leave the Xu country. ”
Wang Yue laughed when he heard this, it was really normal for the Legalists to encounter this kind of problem.
According to the memory of the past, it is the most successful reform of the Shang Dynasty throughout the ages, although it was killed by the old forces fighting back against the car, but its law has been fully implemented, thus laying the foundation for the Qin State to sweep Liuhe.
After the Shang Dynasty, in all dynasties, the law changers were either defeated by the old forces, or as Shen described.
At this time, Zhao Wu said: "Childe, whether it is industrial and commercial, or others, many foundations are essential, such as road traffic?"
"Now it happens that hundreds of thousands of coalition troops are going to Jidi, among which the elite of the coalition army is responsible for all kinds of wars, but the nearly 200,000 troops and accompanying soldiers and civilians who are responsible for the rear of our elite coalition army, as long as the main force of Cai State has not arrived, there will not be much war. ”
"In other words, the 200,000 coalition troops are almost vacant during this period of time, and in my opinion, such a huge manpower vacancy is too wasteful, and it may be possible to better support the logistics of the elite coalition army, so that they and the people can repair the roads of the Zhuyi Prefecture. ”
Wang Yue praised: "Zhao Wu, you managed the manor some time ago, but your knowledge has increased a lot. ”
"The reason why I set up the rear of the army in Jidi is the best for the Huaishang coalition army to go north this time, and I also consider that the 200,000 coalition troops and related people can do a lot of construction for my future snake remnant country. ”
"Zhao Wu, what you said about road traffic is just one of them. ”
Zhao Wu said: "The traffic road matter is indeed only one of them, but it is a pity that the coalition army has not been stationed long enough to draw the land, otherwise the prince can also make his food self-sufficient, and ask him to open up wasteland and do the field work after training, and when the army retreats in the future, this field will belong to us." ”
"But even so, perhaps just by encamping a large army, it can open up the foundation of a few towns for the future Serpent Remnant. ”
After a pause, he was about to continue, when the team in front suddenly stopped, and the carriage of the three people could not move forward, so he could only be forced to stop, Wang Yue looked back at the priest Huaibo who was accompanying the carriage behind, and asked loudly: "What happened ahead?"
Priest Huaibo communicated with the priest who was in front of the army and reported back: "Childe, a section of the road ahead is blocked by all kinds of strange boulders, and many samurai have rushed over to clear it. ”
"This should be the good deeds done by the landlords and priests some time ago, and their destruction of the road is that a large stone rises from the ground to block the road, and this stone cannot prevent pedestrians from detouring, but it can make it impossible for our army vehicles to pass easily. Zhao Wu said.
Wang Yue nodded slightly, sensing the location of the ink viper patrolling the sky, and through the vision of the ink viper, he fell straight ahead.
I saw that there was a pile of rocks rising from the ground on the roadway between the fields, covering the lanes and the left and right parts of the fields, and it was the same for more than ten zhang from the blockage.
This stone that rises from the ground is very difficult to deal with.
In the modern era of the earth, when Wang Yue was young and could do engineering, he either used large machinery to chisel these stones, or had to blast them with cannons, usually not many stones, it would take a lot of effort, and in this world, it was necessary to send a large number of samurai to infiltrate and destroy with the spirit of samurai, even if there were many people with great strength, it was time-consuming and laborious, as for replacing them with ordinary soldiers, it was estimated that they could not be cleared in a day.
And if it's all the way, how can you march and fight?
It's just that the problems left over from before the landlord priests were scared away are so troublesome, and now those landlord priests are far away, and they don't know how many similar good deeds they will do in the land where he is attacking?
Wang Yue knew that if he wanted to deal with the power of the gods, in addition to other means, it was best to deal with it with the same strength, but Huaibo's power could only be used as a communication after leaving the Huaishui Basin, so he could only rely on him.
Some time ago, he went to the altar to worship him and took the opportunity to cast the divine position, which was not only an opportunity, but also a very important reason, so he said to the priest Huaibo: "Pass the order, tell the whole army to be calm and not impatient, this matter will be dealt with by the general, and the passage can be resumed later." ”
"I also told the samurai who cleared the road to slow down for the time being, and then continue to clean up after I have used my magic to help them, and there is no need to throw the broken boulders on the sides of the road, and when a group of craftsmen are mobilized to go forward, the samurai will scatter the broken boulders all over the road.
