A month flies quickly.

The old system of the former Doctor's Palace has now been cleaned up.

The door plaque was re-hung.

Restructuring House.

Xiao He, Chen and Pingren, for most of the next half month, basically worked inside, and in the second half of the month, Li Erlang of Bashu, the public loss of Kanto and others also arrived one after another, and each of them obtained a large office space.

It's just that Ji Heng, as the chief official, has not been here since then, except after the end of the court meeting.

It's Zhang Liang.

In the second half of the month, I go from time to time.

It's just that Zhang Liang's identity is a little special after all, and Xiao He, Chen Ping, and others also subconsciously keep a certain distance from Zhang Liang.

Zhang Liang didn't care.

In addition to asking about the basic situation, it is to inquire about the news of the imperial court in the restructuring mansion.

I have to say.

Approaching the imperial city, all kinds of news, always listen to more complete than the outside world, but also faster, at least in the past half a month, Zhang Liang has a more specific understanding of the situation in northern Xinjiang, and also has a lot of understanding of the 'economic war' that Ji Heng said.

Under the exchange of trade between Daqin and the Xiongnu, Daqin showed a great need for livestock.

Especially cattle and sheep.

In the first year or two, it was acquired at a high price.

Therefore, the Huns saw that it was profitable, and in the following years, they used a lot of grassland to graze cattle and sheep in exchange for high returns.

Daqin has always kept his promise, but if the Huns sell thousands of cattle and sheep, they can sell them at a high price, but if the number is less than a thousand, it will only fall into the hands of small traders in the frontier, and these small merchants are only interested in profits, and they will eventually continue to lower prices.

Therefore, in the following years, the major tribes of the Xiongnu have actually adjusted.

It is mainly based on a large number of livestock cattle and sheep.

And this naturally has to take over the playground of other tribes.

This undoubtedly squeezed the living environment of other small tribes, and even the annexation of small tribes by most of the Xiongnu was therefore fast, and all this was just for the purpose of exchanging trade with the Great Qin, and under the profit, many pastures of the Xiongnu became grazing grounds for cattle and sheep, and the number of horses also decreased a lot.

As the two sides communicate with each other, the number of cattle and sheep is increasing.

The Great Qin Dynasty began to deliberately lower prices.

And this directly led to the sharp drop in the price of livestock in the grassland, the grassland was originally for sale to breed so much, now this is the price of the depressed, the economic situation of the entire grassland, suddenly plummeted, can not be sold, it will continue to consume grassland.

In addition, there have been several droughts and snow disasters of a certain scale, which has made the already urgent situation of the grassland even worse.

Ultimately.

Take a look at it.

The profits from the sale of a cow and sheep by the Huns to Daqin were actually beyond their means compared to what they had paid in the past few years.

Under all kinds of complaints, the Huns quit.

That's why I went south this time.

When Zhang Liang was concerned about the situation in the north, Xiao He and Chen Ping also noticed it.

After some deep thought, the two also discovered this clue.

Compared with Chen Ping and Zhang Liang, Xiao He is more proficient and proficient in internal affairs, and he easily understands the key to it, the mutual market is essentially mutual, but the Great Qin is rich in resources, and if the Central Plains is really discussed, it needs the horses of the grassland more, but the Great Qin is not short of horses.

It's not that there is no shortage of them.

It's just that Daqin is very good at raising horses.

Qin Feizi, who is based in Guanzhong, is good at raising horses.

The subsequent generations of monarchs also more or less relied on 'driving' or sending good horses to the Zhou royal family to give themselves the foundation they had accumulated, so the craft of raising horses was very important to the Daqin royal family.

As a result, Daqin's demand for horses was not so high.

Great Qin demanded more meat from the Xiongnu such as cattle and sheep, which led to the Xiongnu falling into the calculation of Guan Zhong for small countries in history, but the Xiongnu reacted too late.

Just through commerce and trade, in fact, it will not achieve the effect.

The key to this is the Great Wall.

In a way, the Great Wall at this time was no longer a military facility, but closer to a trade barrier, through the Great Qin, the Central Plains and the Xiongnu trade routes and trading nodes were rigidly controlled, so that the Xiongnu could not bargain.

This is just one of them.

There is another key point for Daqin and the Xiongnu to exchange trade.

There are businessmen among the participants.

And it's big business.

These big merchants are different from the past, this is controlled by the imperial court behind the back, and these people are well versed in the way of doing business, so they encircled and suppressed the small traders in the border areas who may collude with the Xiongnu, and then guaranteed the initiative in trade, and were caught in the hands of Daqin, and through the high prices in the early days, they also forced those small merchants to death.

As a result, a monopoly of the 'imperial merchants' was formed.

The shop is a big bully.

From beginning to end, Daqin's trade with the Xiongnu, the initiative was firmly grasped on Daqin's side, the Xiongnu could not counteract at all, Daqin could not exchange the Xiongnu's cattle, sheep and horses, but the Xiongnu could hardly bear the lack of tea, salt, and silk.

And so it goes.

'Forcing the Xiongnu to rebel' is also something that Great Qin can manipulate.

Come to think of this.

Xiao He showed a look of horror on his face.

He had sensed something was wrong.

If it was really the imperial court that forced the Xiongnu to 'resist', which led to this southward raid, does that also mean that Han Xin's northward movement was also in the premeditated plan of the court?

It is to support Han Xin's 'upper position'.

And then suppress the Guanzhong Group?

"Brother Xiao, do you see anything?" Chen Ping saw Xiao He's face change in shock, and he couldn't help but ask curiously.

Xiao He retracted his thoughts.

He wiped the sweat stains on his forehead and said calmly: "I just thought of something unusual, which made Brother Chen smile." ”

It's just that when he said this, his eyes involuntarily looked at Zhang Liang.

He had a hunch.

Zhang Liang must have noticed it.

Otherwise, they would not have inquired about the news of northern Xinjiang as soon as they came.

When Xiao He looked at Zhang Liang, Zhang Liang also looked at Xiao He, the two looked at each other, Zhang Liang smiled lightly, and showed a kind smile to Xiao He, as well as an indescribable appreciation.

Looked at.

Xiao He immediately understood.

He arched his hand and said, "Brother Zhang Liang, you saw it early in the morning?" ”

Zhang Liang shook his head and said lightly: "No, but I gradually saw it clearly." ”

"This is a game, one was laid out very early, one was deliberately aimed at the Huns, and one was only recently triggered, just to change the current situation."

"For us, the situation in northern Xinjiang is not really important."

"The important thing is the restructuring!"

Chen Ping frowned.

He could see that from these documents during this time, Xiao He saw something that he hadn't seen, and from Zhang Liang's words, he was even more keenly aware of the smell of hidden conspiracy.

And he calculated for a long time, very deeply.

It's just that he hasn't seen it yet.

Xiao He nodded slightly, saluted Zhang Liang again, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Zhang Liang, Xiao He has been taught." ”

Zhang Liang shook his head and said lightly: "I can't stand your worship." ”

"I am also an afterthought, but a little earlier than you, so I will indeed think a little further than you, but the direction and key to the restructuring is not in our hands, but in the hands of the mansion master."

Hear the words.

Xiao He's heart sank.

He took a deep look at Zhang Liang and could see that Zhang Liang was not lying, does that mean that the lord of the restructured mansion actually saw through this matter very early, so he could not move through the wind and rain and wait for 'the advantage is in me'?!

But it's amazing.

Chen Ping stood still.

His gaze swept back and forth between Zhang Liang and Xiao He, and he was already becoming more and more curious in his heart, because he could clearly know that the two were actually talking about a very unusual thing, but he couldn't get in.

This made Chen Ping quite depressed.

He boasted that he was not so talented, although he was indeed suppressed by Zhang Liang back then, but it was not so clear now, and Xiao He, a person who manages internal affairs, has no reason to react faster than himself.

He settled down and looked at the bamboo slips on the case again.

It's bound to see something strange.

The other people in the Restructuring Mansion were also confused at the moment, completely ignorant of what they were doing, only knowing that the two seemed to be talking about a very complicated and important matter, and they looked at each other a few times, and they were also like Chen Ping, burying their heads in these bamboo slips.

Seeing the changes around him, Zhang Liang frowned slightly.

It quickly eased up again.

Zhang Liang said: "Today is different from the past. ”

"There will be more and more in the future."

"Many of the current Great Qin courtiers can't keep up."

Xiao He looked at the other people nearby and smiled bitterly, he didn't know what to say, if he didn't know a lot about economic and internal affairs, otherwise it would be difficult to grasp the key, and it would be impossible to think of so much so quickly.

And from Zhang Liang's words, he can clearly feel it.

The 'war' launched by Great Qin against the Xiongnu may not be an accident, but an inevitability, and will even gradually become a sharp weapon for Great Qin's attack on the border tribes.

And this kind of war is left outside the country.

This kind of new-style war, supplemented by restructuring, is afraid that many officials in Daqin will not be able to react at all, and they will not even realize what is happening, and only when the 'war' is over, or when tribes such as the Xiongnu are desperate and have to turn back, they will realize it later.

But it was too late.

How can such an official steal a high position?

It is bound to be cleaned out step by step by His Majesty.

now

His Majesty is already doing it.

It's just that through the hand of restructuring, the courtiers were removed or forced to retreat step by step, leaving a certain amount of dignity for these people.

Come to think of this.

Xiao He's heart was heavy.

He had realized how important his business was.

It is a matter of life and death for many people.

It also determines the future of Daqin!

The Reform House is quiet.

Xiao He has once again devoted himself to the task of restructuring, and now he has a different understanding of some of the ideas and experiences that he sorted out before, and many of them have been erased for him.

Japan.

After an hour or two.

Chen Ping's eyes were bloodshot, and there were a lot of 'keys' written on the big case in front of him, and after thinking about it over and over again, he finally understood what Zhang Liang and Xiao He were talking about.

It was the change of the Huns.

It is a change in the world.

The changes in Daqin will also officially kick off from this 'variable'. (End of chapter)
