Just when he thought it was over, Su Mo spoke indifferently.

"What the military advisor sees is only one of the four major textile factories, and there are three factories of the same size left!"

Hearing this, Zhuge Liang only felt as if his heart had been hit by a heavy hammer, his pupils were full of doubts and looked at Su Mo, and asked, "What did the general say?" ”

"There are three more such textile factories?"

Hearing his questioning, Su Mo nodded and said with a smile: "Not only that! ”

"We also have two glass products factories and two rice paper products factories!"

Listening to his words, Zhuge Liang felt as if he had misheard.

There are also two glazed product factories and two rice paper product factories, how many taels of silver are this year?

With doubts in his heart, he trembled and asked, "How much silver is a year in the glazed products factory?" ”

Su Mo thought about it for a while and gave an approximate amount.

"It should be around 20 million!"

"Only my border on the Kyushu Continent can produce such glass products, the only one!"

Zhuge Liang didn't hear the latter words, he only had 20 million taels in his head.

The annual tax of the Great Zhou Dynasty is 80 million taels!

Now this glass product plus rouge products is 40 million taels.

He was now shocked by the numbers, and he couldn't do more.

Before he could continue to ask, Su Mo immediately said indifferently: "The income of the rice paper factory is a little worse, only six million taels a year!" ”

"The rest of the factories add up to about thirteen million taels!"

Hearing this, Zhuge Liang's whole person was immersed in the world of gold and silver.

He roughly calculated, these factories added in a year, one thousand is sixty million taels of silver!

60,000,000 taels of silver.

Enough to feed two million troops!

No wonder the border looks so rich!

Only sixteen cities could reach the income of the twenty-four state capitals of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

How can such a wealthy economy not be invincible to the border?

Su Mo took Zhuge Liang to visit the factory, and then returned to the General's Mansion, opposite the desk, Su Mo handed the General Seal in his hand to Zhuge Liang.

"This great general's seal is the only means to command the border army!"

"Now it's in the hands of the military advisor!"

Zhuge Liang was just about to refuse, but Su Mo spoke again: "All rights are handed over to you, it is all rights!" ”

Hearing this, Zhuge Liang was first shocked in his heart, and then a hot current surged up.

When he first arrived at the border, before he made a contribution, Su Mo entrusted such a heavy task to himself, and he must not make a mistake with such trust.

He bent down and saluted: "Liang will live up to the trust of the lord!" ”

Seeing this, Su Mo smiled, helped him up, and then called his lieutenant general.

"Coordinate people's livelihood and medical care!"

"Let the military advisor understand a thing or two first!"

Soon, a lieutenant general arrived with an updated copy of the results.

Zhuge Liang took the rice paper in the latter's hand and flipped through it, and as time passed, Zhuge Liang's expression became more and more weird.

The news is really strange.

He looked at Su Mo and asked, "This medical office is actually all free?" ”

Su Mo nodded.

"Yes, the purpose of the establishment of this medical department is to let the people on the border see the disease and be able to see a doctor!"

Zhuge Liang then asked: "Now the medical department is close to more than 300, and the expenditure is nearly two million taels a year, if it continues like this, it will only be more exaggerated in the future!" ”

"Is this really worth it?"

Su Mo didn't discuss with him whether it was worth it or not, but simply responded: "Not only the medical department, but also the school is free, and all the children's reading books are provided by the border army, which is why the income of the rice paper factory is so low!" ”

After listening to his words, Zhuge Liang silently began to calculate in his heart.

According to the battle report in front of him, the medical department and the school alone are close to four million taels of silver a year!

Even if you only charge 30% of the price for one person, it can greatly relieve the pressure, why insist so much?

He looked at Su Mo and expressed his doubts.

"If only 30% of the price can be greatly relieved by charging a person for 30%, why insist on it?"

"It's all free, aren't you afraid that those people will lose their minds to move forward?"

Hearing Zhuge Liang's question, Su Mo responded with a smile: "Do you think anyone at the border has given up their efforts?" ”

"Free medical care and private school just allow them to spend freely without any worries!"

"That's why the families of the people on the border seem to be extremely wealthy!"

"All the income is used for consumption, so why worry about not continuing to work hard?"

His remarks made Zhuge Liang ponder for a long time.

He knew the truth of this, but he was extremely surprised that the implementation process was so smooth.

I never thought that these people were really willing to spend all the money in their hands, and wouldn't keep it just in case?

Thinking of this, he immediately raised his second question.

Do those people really dare to do this? Are you not afraid of accidents at the border and unable to afford the cost of medical care and private school? ”

His worries are not groundless, during the Shu Han Dynasty, he had thought about giving all these for free to relieve the pressure on the people's lives, and the trial operation of the county could not be supported for only half a year.

The medical department is shoddy, unwilling to use real materials to help the people, and finds ways to embezzle and take bribes.

Private schools do not teach children, and change the way to make the people empty their pockets, in his eyes, these problems cannot be solved at all.

Why has this never been a problem at the border gates?

Listening to his question, Su Mo smiled and took out a document.

"These are the three medical offices and one private school reported by the people, and there is the situation you said!"

"Once discovered, the qualifications will be directly banned, and the person jointly responsible will be imprisoned for ten years!"

As he spoke, Su Mo immediately explained his coping strategy.

"These medical offices and private schools are subsidized by the General's Mansion, and their annual income can also make them worry about food and clothing!"

"Besides, these people will still be able to receive the old age subsidy from the General's Mansion in the future, as long as the years are long enough, the subsidy will be enough!"

"Who would take such a risk?"

This set of ideas, taken from later generations of civil servants, has been extremely successful at the border.

The people are simple, as long as they can live, they will not do anything wrong, and as long as they work hard, not only will they earn a considerable income, but they will also be supported by the General's Mansion when they are old.

His medical care and the future of his children are guaranteed, and his income is enough to spend quite a lot on weekdays.

If it weren't for an unsolvable problem, no one would give up on such a good job.

What Su Mo said is that these are extremely basic things, and any dynasty can do it, but the border pass will implement all these things in a real way.

This has also led to the fact that in the border gates, everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, and the neighbors get along in great harmony.

Zhuge Liang originally found some clues when he was at the Yumen Pass.

In the Yumen Pass, the people who went from Tai'an City always looked smiling and without pressure.

Those aborigines of Yumen Pass are always worried.

Originally, he thought that the two parties enjoyed different policies and benefits, which led to this strange-looking picture.

After a thorough understanding today, he also understood what was going on.
