Zhang Xi thinks that Zhuge Liang does have a big problem in talent training.

Of course, the problem needs to be seen on two sides.

Zhuge Liang set up the Prime Minister's Mansion in the later period, and selected a group of young talents to work in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Fei Yi, Jiang Wan, Yang Yi, Zhang Yi and others, they were so familiar with government affairs step by step, and finally Jiang Wan and Fei Yi's smooth succession was also the result of Zhuge Liang's vigorous training.

But when Zhuge Liang governed Shuzhong, he even had to ask about the punishment of more than 20 battles, which was a bit too much, and it would make the officials below tie their hands and feet and dare not take responsibility.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang did leave Ji Han with a lot of upper-level talents, which can ensure the stability of the country, but Zhuge Liang has considerable responsibility for the cultivation of middle- and lower-level talents.

This also led to the fact that after Fei Yi and Jiang Wan, that is, a Chen Yi could barely come up, and Ji Han was indeed very seriously out of talent in the later period.

Now Zhang Xi saw that Zhuge Liang also had to give an order in person for a piece of iron wrapped in a plowshare, and he really couldn't stand it, so he persuaded Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang also smiled bitterly at Zhang Xi's persuasion and said, "This is not Liang's self-specialization, it is really a last resort." ”

Then Zhuge Liang explained to Zhang Xi why he did this.

Zhuge Liang is not so strict about everything, there are only two things he really investigates - salt and iron.

In the Han Dynasty, it was run by salt and iron officials, and there were salt officials and iron officials to manage the production and sales of salt and iron.

Of course, it was the heyday, and by the end of the Han Dynasty, the salt and iron policy had been completely destroyed.

The reason why Sang Hongyang insisted on the salt and iron official camp at the beginning was, to a certain extent, the central and local governments were fighting for control of finance, and the places in this place, strictly speaking, were the powerful families, and the representatives of them were those Confucian scholars who debated with Sang Hongyang.

There was such a controversy in the Western Han Dynasty, and in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the family was powerful, and it is conceivable what the salt and iron policy would become.

Now it's a troubled time again, the major princes and families control the benefits of salt and iron, if Zhuge Liang doesn't want to take these things back, can he still be the first minister who has been famous for thousands of years.

So, it's not Zhuge Liang's leniency, which involves very complex economic policies, as well as how to strengthen Liu Bei's power and balance the influence of the family.

Although Liu Bei's forces have developed greatly, the four counties of Jingnan and one Jiangxia are not enough to support Liu Bei's overall development, nor can they realize the concept of "Longzhong Pair".

Therefore, Zhuge Liang must grasp the matter of salt and iron, and he can't let the local family continue to control it.

Fortunately, the strength of the family in the four counties of Jingnan is weak, that is, the Huang family has some power in Changsha and other places, and Zhuge Liang came forward to solve it in this regard, and he is the most suitable person.

As for why Zhuge Liang had to approve a piece of iron sheet, Zhuge Liang also said, "I want to take this as an example." ”

In other words, it is not that Zhuge Liang has to hold on to these small things, but to set an example and let his subordinates know that even a small piece of iron can only be issued with the consent of the highest person in charge, not to mention such a major event as the sale of iron tools.

To put it simply, it is to make a show and let the officials in charge of salt and iron know what to do.

But Zhang Xi still thinks that Zhuge Liang's approach of leading by example is far less good than establishing an effective system.

With systems and processes, clear rights and responsibilities, and rewards and punishments, accountability will be specific to each level, and people will be held accountable if there is a problem, and there will naturally be no corruption.

Zhuge Liang smiled at this, and then asked Zhang Xi a question - how did the supervision system of the Han Dynasty not exist? !

The Han Dynasty had a supervision system, and even the thirteen states in the world were not administrative regions at the beginning, but supervision regions.

But later, with the decay of the assassination system, the superposition of the two events of the abolition of history and the Yellow Turban Uprising, the imperial court allowed local private funds to protect themselves, and the thirteen states in the world changed from a supervision area to an administrative region, and the supervision system completely collapsed.

Therefore, in troubled times, it is often not easy to establish a system, but it is too simple to destroy.

And now it is an out-and-out chaotic era, more complicated and chaotic than the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the authority of the central court has basically been lost, and only a righteous name remains.

Now the major princes are their own, even if it is Cao Cao, although he respects the Son of Heaven, he does not adopt the constitution system of the imperial court, but his own prime minister's mansion, which belongs to him Cao Cao's own set of systems.

Liu Bei does not have a completely stable territory now, his power is not good, and the effect of the current supervision system is not as effective as the use of people.

It would be better to wait until Liu Bei's forces are fixed in the future, and then adopt the effect of the rule of law.

This is Zhuge Liang's current philosophy of governance.

Zhang Xi has no way to judge whether this is right or wrong, and his little brain has no way to judge the right or wrong of these concepts.

But according to Zhuge Liang, he is not intricate, he is just focusing on specific work, and Zhang Xi is naturally not easy to persuade again.

The two men stood and talked for a long time, until the master came back and reinstalled the iron plough with the quyuan plow.

After continuing to try, Zhuge Liang was finally satisfied.

Although the curved plow is a thing that saves animal power and can be operated by one person, it is actually not much higher than the long straight plough in terms of ploughing efficiency.

This kind of plough is more suitable for the kind of area where animal power is insufficient, or the kind of arable land is scattered and needs to be intensively cultivated.

To put it simply, the thief is suitable for the use of Jiangxia County and Jingnan County.

These places are all hilly areas, there are more mountainous areas, not to mention the area of cultivated land, and they are all relatively scattered, especially after the war, lack of animal power.

The use of curved plough farming, can reduce half of the animal power demand, and some mountainous areas of the leftovers, long straight plough can not be reclaimed, but the curved plough is flexible, cultivation can be deep or shallow, these places can also be reclaimed and utilized, increase the area of cultivated land.

Zhuge Liang was overjoyed at that time, and immediately ordered the master craftsmen in the army to start processing and making Quyuan plows, and be sure to ensure that they were transported to Jiangxia and Jingnan counties before spring ploughing, and the local magistrates instructed the people to use them.

As for whether Quyuan Plough will leak to the north, Zhuge Liang is not worried about Cao Cao's benefit.

There is not much difference between Cao Cao's use of the curved plough and the use of the long straight plow, after all, the land in the north is relatively vast, and Cao Cao is not short of animal power, in the case of little difference in efficiency, Cao Cao can use the curved plow or the long straight plow, and the leakage of the past is not a big killer to enhance Cao Cao's strength.

As for Koto. This Zhuge Liang is actually quite entangled.

In that part of Jiangdong, the water network is dense, which means that irrigation is convenient and there is a lot of arable area, and the only thing that restricts the development of agriculture in Jiangdong is probably the lack of animal power.

In the south, after all, there is a shortage of horses and cattle.

But now, if there is one more curved plough that is convenient to turn and can be operated by one person and one ox, it is really hard to say whether it can greatly increase its power.

And Jiangdong also has an advantage, they are next to Jiangxia and Jingnan four counties, once Jiangxia and Jingnan four counties start to use Quyuan plough on a large scale, it will definitely not be able to hide from Jiangdong, and there is no way to stop Jiangdong from copying this Quyuan plow.

The result of the curved plough is too simple, and it will be seen at a glance.

Zhuge Liang was somewhat worried about this.

But Zhang Xi is not worried.

Not only is he not worried, Zhang Xi also gave Zhuge Liang an idea - let's send it directly.

Once the Quyuan plough is used on a large scale, secrecy will definitely not be maintained, and this Zhang Xi also agrees.

It is better to send it directly, not only to send it, but also to beat the gong and drum to send it, it is best to let the whole Jiangdong know that Liu Zhijun is benevolent and righteous, cares about the suffering of the people of Jiangdong, and also attaches importance to the covenant between the two families.

Now that he has good things that are conducive to farming, Liu Yuanjun not only does not hide them privately, but also shares them with his allies for free.

This series of operations must be grand and grand, and it is best to let the people of Jiangdong and the families of Jiangdong know about it.

In doing so, Liu Bei's image of benevolence and righteousness in the hearts of the people of Jiangdong can also be improved, and it can also make good friends with the families of Jiangdong.

In the future, when Liu Bei went to ask for the mouth of the oil river as a station, Sun Quan would also have to consider this concern.

As for whether Sun Quan will see through all this and not take the plow. Just kidding, who would have trouble with their own money and food?!

And even if Sun Quan doesn't want to accept it, the Jiangdong family and the Huaisi Group will force Sun Quan to collect it, after all, they are the largest landlords in Jiangdong, and things like Quyuan plough are the most suitable things for cultivation in Jiangdong.

After all, in later generations, this thing also has a nickname, called "Jiangdong Plow".

As for what is open, secretly find someone to copy it, please, Jiangdong Family and Huaisi Group also want face, and people will understand everything when they come over and see it.

You don't want to give it to you, but you go and steal it yourself. What is this?!

It's not good that the reputation is completely ruined.

Moreover, as far as Jiangdong's political pattern and the power of the family are concerned, Liu Bei sent them to Quyuan Plough, and it is really difficult to say whether it is increasing Jiangdong's strength or increasing the risk of civil strife in Jiangdong.

The Jiangdong family, after all, is the largest landlord in Jiangdong, and the Huaisi Group is a military group, although there is a lot of land, but after all, it is not as good as the Jiangdong family.

Once the Jiangdong family has enough money and food, it is really hard to say whether they will continue to submit to Sun Quan, and whether they will accept the oppression and embezzlement of the Huaisi Group.

If there is such a case, Zhang Xi and Zhuge Liang should be secretly happy.
