Xiao Yan is not wrong about one thing, Zhang Shiqi is indeed a genius in the world, at least in the case of Xu Xupai.

With the flow of part of the content of "Gao's Entrepreneurship Record", the Eastern Wei magnates were also able to recognize how low the bottom line of a scribe could be.

Gao Huan has only been in power for eight years, and everyone who is the Yuan Cong has not forgotten the specific process of Xindu Jianyi, but Zhang Shiqi tampered with it wantonly, and no one dared to jump out to correct it.

Only because of its authenticity was personally endorsed and certified by Gao Huan and Gao Cheng father and son.

Zhao is noble and can refer to the deer as a horse, and the confusion between the Gao family father and son did not cause much turmoil.

Almost all of the people who know the inside story are their own people, and no one will deliberately dismantle the stage.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, by mid-May, the administrative divisions of various parts of Henan have been adjusted.

Zhang Liang, the former assassin of Southern Jingzhou, was ordered to lead the salt soldiers to the north in Jizhou, and will be stationed in western Liaoning in the future.

With Gao Huan's encouragement, Gao Yue, who had walked out of the pain of losing his mother, had completed the handover with Murong Shaozong, and continued to serve as the assassin of Xuzhou, sitting in the eastern section of the Weiliang border.

And with the return of Murong Shaozong to Luoyang, the newly formed Gyeonggi Army was also assembled.

Since the introduction of exempt money, the demand for coins has increased greatly, and although there are standing positions to cover expenses, it is still a drop in the bucket.

With the mints around Luoyang rushing to work day and night, how to spend money has become something that Gao Cheng needs to worry about.

This kind of happy troubles is very different from the shy appearance of the previous two years.

After two years of hard work, King Gao now needs him to spend a lot of money to circulate his coins to the market, and Gao Cheng mainly uses two expenses.

One is the repurchase of private land, under the background of the equalization system, there was indeed private land in the Eastern Wei Dynasty, and the equalization system created by the Northern Wei Dynasty only distributed the terra nullius, and the private land before that was recognized was recognized.

In addition, there is also the accumulation of Yongye field, and each man can have 20 acres of mulberry field for descendants.

Gao Cheng opened an opening under the system that Yongye Tian was not allowed to buy and sell, allowing the people to sell Yongye Tian to the government, which would buy it at the market price.

King Xiao Gao also has his reasons, when there is no urgent money, the people can't let the people hold Yongye Tian and wait for death.

Gao Cheng adopted a passive acquisition method on Yongye Field, and if the people did not sell it, the government was not allowed to intervene.

On the private land, it is a different scene, after so many years of buying and selling, most of the private land is concentrated in the hands of the Shi clan gate lords, and Gao Cheng asks them for a price slightly higher than the market price.

has also obtained a lot of fields one after another, and the amount is not much, but Gao Cheng is already very satisfied, cut the meat with a blunt knife, take your time, this kind of thing is not in a hurry.

At the same time as buying land, Gao Cheng's other expense was to collect private horses.

Since the Northern Wei Dynasty, although the imperial horse politics were defeated, the people had many horses, after all, it was because of the corruption of the horse politics that the pasture horses would be lost to the people.

It's just that the quality of folk horses is uneven, and it is difficult to call them good horses.

However, Gao Cheng didn't care, and after the Gyeonggi Army was rebuilt, he expanded the size of the cavalry in the army in due course.

The original Gyeonggi army had a total of 5,500 cavalry, of which Duan Shao and Yaoxiong each led 1,000 to sit in the town, and Gao Ji-style guards Shaanzhou also brought 500 cavalry.

Even with the addition of Hou Yuan and Liu Feng with 1,000 cavalry each, Gao Cheng's newly built Gyeonggi army only had 5,000 cavalry.

Gao Cheng changed the configuration of one horse and two war horses in the past, and while transferring some war horses from Hebei Ranch, he vigorously collected folk horses for riding horses.

The cavalry configuration was changed to one war horse and two riding horses, and 10,000 war horses and 20,000 horses were hoarded in the current Gyeonggi army.

Forced to put together a cavalry force with a scale of 10,000 horses, all of which were one person and three horsemen.

For these 10,000 horses, Gao Cheng allocated 1,000 people to Murong Shaozong, Hu Luguang, Hou Yuan, and Liu Feng, Gao Aocao often served as a pioneer, and still maintained the scale of 2,000 horsemen for him, and the remaining 4,000 horsemen were all directly under Gao Cheng, composed of 4,000 Wuchuan Xianbei.

The reason that hindered this group of Wuchuan people, who grew up in Daibei since childhood, from becoming cavalry, has always been the lack of war horses, not whether they can ride horses.

However, being able to ride a horse was only the most basic quality of a cavalryman, and Gao Chengqiang ordered the cavalry of the newly formed Gyeonggi Army to practice cavalry around Luoyang all day long.

On the banks of Luoshui and Yinshui, you can often see the scene of thousands of horses galloping, and the people will go out of the city to look for a high place to watch because of surprise at first, and now they have become accustomed to it.

The increase in training volume has also increased the amount of food for humans and horses, which is undoubtedly another big expense.

Gao Cheng did not promote Buddhism and built a strange temple, but he successfully introduced a large number of generals' five-baht coins into the market, meeting the huge demand for coins due to the exemption from military service.

In fact, he did not think about building infrastructure, such as paving bridges and roads, but this is what the local government should do when it gets 70% of the money for exemption from military service, so he gave up this idea.

Due to the high-intensity training, the cavalry was exhausted, and the combat quality did make great progress, and the price of goods in various places did not fluctuate on a large scale because of the demand for coins due to the exemption money.

For Gao Cheng, everything is going in a good direction.

According to the estimation of the household department, after the autumn harvest next year at the latest, the government treasury will be enough to support a war of more than 200,000 soldiers marching westward, and no matter whether it wins or loses, it will not be financially bankrupt.

Gao Cheng ordered the news to be sent to Jinyang, hoping that Gao Huan would prepare as soon as possible, and in the letter, Gao Cheng frankly stated that he would lead the Gyeonggi army to participate in this battle of annihilation against the Western Wei.

After Gao Huan received this letter, he didn't ponder for too long, and immediately replied to Gao Cheng's idea to express his approval.

At the beginning of the Western Expedition, the reason why Gao Cheng was refused to accompany the army was that he needed to guard Henan and guard against Southern Liang.

Today, unlike in the past, Gao's rule in Henan is stable on the one hand, and more importantly, after the adjustment of Henan's zoning, Gao Yue, Yaoxiong, and Hou Jing are guarded separately, which is enough to deal with the threat of Southern Liang, and there is no need for Gao Cheng to co-ordinate.

The only thing that needs to be discussed by the father and son is the direction of Gao Cheng's troops, whether the two of them will join forces, or Gao Cheng will go to Luo or Tongguan.

Gao Huan is undoubtedly inclined to Gao Cheng to go all the way on his own, but Gao Cheng prefers that the two of them will join forces.

No matter how many people are divided, what can only determine the outcome of the battle is the success or failure of Gao Huan's way, and Gao Cheng is really worried about what Gao Huan will do.

The father and son have not communicated about this, after all, the time is still far away, but when the time comes, it will be another debate, just to see who is convinced.

However, Gao Cheng can't care so far for the time being, and he is now immersed in the joy of being a father again.

On May 27 of the eighth year of Taichang (539), Li Zuyi gave birth to a daughter, and Yuan Jingyi, who was raised outside the mansion at the same time, also had a movement in her stomach.

Gao Cheng, who was double happy, not only welcomed the third daughter into the world, but also led Yuan Jingyi into the Bohai Palace after confirming the happy pulse.

The marriage between Yuan Jingyi and Cui Kuo has therefore become an interesting talk on the streets and alleys of Luoyang.
