Chapter 142: Let's work overtime
In Liu Tai's view, during this period of time, there should actually be a lot of good things in the family, especially in terms of science and technology.
Because both the Han Dynasty and Cao Wei, although they admired Confucianism ideologically and culturally, and solidified the class through the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System, the problem is that some schools and families that were suppressed by Confucianism also found their own survival position because of the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System.
It's like at most, I can't climb to the top anymore, but I have a petty official to protect myself from my background.
To a certain extent, although the Jiupin Zhongzheng system has eliminated the possibility of climbing from the bottom to the top, it has also given some small families at the bottom who have been suppressed by Confucianism some chances to survive, especially in troubled times, this opportunity is even more precious.
It's just that people are creatures who are unwilling to be bound after all, especially after someone shouts "The prince will be a kind of Xiangning", who is willing to be just a petty official forever!
In addition, a country needs weapon innovation, so the status of the technical family in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties is not low.
After all, these families have their own family heritage, land and servants, and for them, compared to the suppression of Confucianism under the unified and prosperous environment, such an environment is more suitable for them to survive.
It's just that Liu Tai is not yet independent, and he is under the name of the Xiongnu Han Kingdom, and for these technical families, they don't have to consider Liu Tai at all.
There is still some danger of being considered a thief with Liu Tai, but mixing with the Xiongnu and Han is at least politically correct.
Even if Liu Taizhen rebelled one day, and even killed the Xiongnu Han Kingdom, he would surrender at that time.
After all, it is based on technology to eat, and the key is to pass on the technology steadily.
In this case, these technical families are particularly peaceful, unlike those of the top families, who have the idea of either driving out the Tartars or unifying the world.
After all, in their opinion, what treatment the state gave them at the beginning, but now that they have changed their heads, their own treatment is better, which makes them really have no motivation to resist.
For Liu Tai, Liu Tai doesn't care at all whether these families are loyal or not.
After all, you have to unify the world, so don't you care if others are loyal or disloyal, isn't it sick, just see if the other party can use it.
The most important thing is that Liu Tai attaches more importance to the various production technologies accumulated in the 400 years of the Han Dynasty and the 3 Kingdoms for more than 100 years.
Originally, logically speaking, a great unified dynasty after a chaotic war would definitely have a big explosion of productive forces.
First, under the turbulent times, various military-oriented production technologies began to naturally switch from military to civilian use under the environment of great unification.
Second, under a stable environment, a large number of people will be produced, so that under the astonishing number, it is easier to appear a peerless genius who can carry on the past and forge ahead into the future.
The third is the accumulation of hundreds of years, which is also easier to sublimate in a relatively peaceful environment.
But from the beginning, the Western Jin Dynasty looked like it was going to destroy the country, let alone talk about any development.
And one of the very important reasons why ancient China seems to respect ancient things is that because the 300 years of chaos in China brought about by the disarmament of the Chinese nation is not only the danger of extinction of the Chinese nation.
Moreover, many families who have mastered various technologies have really become extinct in the era of Wuhu Chaohua, and the technology inherited from the Warring States period to the Eastern Jin Dynasty in their hands is really gone.
This made people in ancient times want to improve their productivity, and as a result, they went to archaeology, and maybe there were really ancient technologies that were stronger than modern ones.
These things can only be handled by Yang Man now.
Liu Tai's requirements are not high, as long as the large and small families who survive in all kinds of horns and pimples within his scope are found out, and let himself retain the techniques inherited from the Han Dynasty as much as possible, to some extent, it can be regarded as a harvest.
Liu Tai took a deep breath when he thought of this, and he was not in a hurry to take his time and not rush to harvest the technology in the hands of the family.
At this moment, Liu Tai turned his head to Chu Yi and said, "Mouyuan, now that the troubled times have come, it is more necessary to restore Qingzhou's economy with the help of others, and have enough materials to enhance Qingzhou's strength, so that the soldiers have more comprehensive equipment."
After all, even if Wang Jun and Shi Le really joined forces, in the end, they would still see their respective soldiers on the battlefield! ”
"What does the county lord think?" Hearing Liu Tai's words, Chu Yu couldn't help but say with a little curiosity.
"The capital of the decisive enemy, only Yang Jin'er!" Liu Tai said very solemnly, "This is what Zhuge Wuhou once said.
At the beginning, the Han Dynasty was able to rely on the northern expedition of Cao Wei in a state, but Shu Jin played a very important role.
So we need to build our own Shu brocade, even if there is no effect in a short period of time, but after a long time, we can get a lot of benefits! ”
"What does the county lord value?" Chu Yu heard Liu Tai's words and couldn't help asking.
"Cloth and salt!" Liu Tai looked at Chu Yi and said,
"It's just that Shu Jin has made a reputation, and we want to make a name for ourselves in the cloth again, I'm afraid it will be more difficult.
So I'd rather put a little effort into the salt, so that the salt we make is more delicate and white, and create an exclusive snowflake salt, so as to make a profit! ”
To be honest, not everything can become something similar to "Shu brocade" and become the decisive asset of Shu.
Because this thing needs to be profitable in the first place, but at the same time, it must be owned in large quantities, and more importantly, it is not enough to cherish this thing.
Because if it is too precious, it is not conducive to trade, the most typical example of which is horses.
To be honest, horses will definitely sell well, but the problem is that as long as normal forces take out horses and sell them.
And snowflake salt, which is born from coarse salt, is very suitable as a special material similar to "Shu brocade".
First of all, the quantity of this kind of thing is larger, and for Liu Tai, it is just a few more processes to collect IQ tax.
However, the mainstream edible salt in this era inevitably has impurities, and Liu Tai, through the corresponding knowledge of physics or chemistry, tried his best to process the original colored salt into a unique white, so the price of this snowflake salt was high.
When Liu Tai thought of table salt, he quickly thought of another thing, that is, monosodium glutamate.
Of course, in this era, it may not be easy to make MSG, but it should not be difficult to get some kelp and some kelp crumble!
This kind of spice that can be used to make incense has been a hard currency that can be sold without worry since ancient times, not to mention that the price difference between spices and gold in this era is not large.
All in all, relying on the sea, Liu Tai found that there are actually many offshore resources that are somewhat inexhaustible.
"Snowflake salt? That's a good thing indeed! Chu Yu heard Liu Tai's words, thought about it for a while, and agreed.
After all, after Liu Tai made the sea salt, he asked the craftsmen to process and reprocess, filter and filter, and even soymilk, which was specially made for filtering snowflake salt, which made Chu Yu feel that Liu Tai was a little extravagant.
So even Chu Yu recognizes that snowflake salt is a luxury!
But the problem is that if this snowflake salt is made out for sale now, then Chu Yu feels that Liu Tai is a little far-sighted.
After all, no matter what, I can be regarded as having mastered a fist product that can be sold.
Salt is a good thing to sell, not to mention this special snowflake salt.
Chu Yu couldn't help but be a little worried at the moment, "But if you need a lot of beans, will you encroach on a lot of food?" ”
"You can try to develop in the south, we can sell their high-priced snowflake salt, buy a lot of beans from them, and even share a part of the profits to the southern family, maybe one day we can use it!" Liu Taidao.
Liu Tai knew very well that he could guide the south to the development of the plantation economy, and he would guide the industrialized civilization.
And with such a duel of civilizations, if he really successfully unifies the north in the future, it will be easier to attack the south.
"But in this case, we also need to slow down the binding of merchants to a certain extent within our borders!" Liu Taidao.
"What do you mean?" Chu Yu didn't expect Liu Tai's thinking to jump so quickly, and he went around to Shangjia again.
"Directly relaxing the conditions for businessmen, I don't think it may be beneficial to guide the people." Liu Tai looked at Chu Yi and said,
"Sort out the taxes of the people in Qingzhou and show me, especially the dazzling variety of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, I think there are too many taxes.
One is that the people can't understand the taxes, and the other is that the officials below will pay taxes privately, I want to coordinate all the taxes, so that the people know as much as possible as long as they pay a unified tax, so as to reduce the tax burden of the people!
When the tax consolidation is clear, the business can be adjusted in terms of taxation instead of directly relaxing the conditions. ”
Chu Yi nodded when he heard Liu Tai's words, and asked Xi Jian to record these things one by one, and wait until all the information was sorted out, and then handed it over to Liu Tai.
And as he chatted with Chu Yu, Liu Tai also began to take over Chu Yu's Chinese documents and began to deal with affairs step by step.
It's just that seeing Liu Tai stay to deal with government affairs, instead of letting himself and others go, Xi Jian, Yang Man, Xi Senjun and others also obediently sat down and followed the work.
And they suddenly found that they and others had already felt a bit complicated official business, but they began to become relaxed!
Chu Yu skillfully handed the documents to Liu Tai, and after Liu Tai looked at them, he recalled the things that happened in history, and then wrote a framework and handed it to Chu Tai.
According to the framework written by Liu Tai, Chu Yu made a more detailed plan.
And when this plan fell into the hands of Xi Jian and others, they only needed to supplement the details.
Because of this, with Liu Tai coming to the Department of Internal Affairs, the efficiency of the entire Department of Internal Affairs has become much higher.
Originally, because Liu Tai went to fight against Wang Jun, all kinds of government affairs that were constantly accumulated, now under Liu Tai's lead in overtime, it seems that it is not so heavy.
In the evening, Liu Tai asked Xiaozao to add food, and everyone continued to work after eating, and finally when it was almost time, Liu Tai finally approved the last document, and Chu Yi took it conscientiously for planning.
As for the few who were doing the details, they were yawning one by one at this time, and they were almost about to lie down!
Liu Tai stretched his waist and said, "Okay, you guys have worked hard, and today we finally dealt with the backlog of government affairs."
Tomorrow, everyone will take a day off, have a good rest, and come back to the Interior Department the day after tomorrow, I will go back to rest first! ”
"Congratulations to the county lord!" The sparse voices of the crowd showed that everyone was really a little tired.
At this time, Xi Jian was a little incredulous and said, "Is our county prince really omnipotent?" Isn't this a task that we have accumulated for months, and how the hell do we get it done! ”
"I don't know, I'm going back to sleep!" Yang Man wanted to force himself up, and muttered,
"It's the first time I've worked like this, and I haven't even had time to drink a sip of water, and after filling in a detail, the next piece of music will come.
Don't you think about the county government when dealing with government affairs? I'm so tired, the next time I encounter so many concerts, I'm sure I'm going to visit my friends! ”
"What do you have to complain about, I just came here to deliver the tax statements, why should I stay until the time of the child!"
Gou Chun felt that he was particularly wronged at the moment, he just came to deliver a tax report, why was he caught and left to fill in all kinds of tax data.
Especially the income of the gate tax of each county and county, is this kind of thing in charge of itself?
Haven't you always been only responsible for the family's thousand-acre tax and forced labor tax?
Chu Yu looked at these guys who were just filling in the details and wailing again and again, but he couldn't help but feel funny.
They have always thought that they are the most volatile people in the entire power system, but the real volume king of the entire Qingzhou is not themselves.
After all, even if he rolls again, he needs to sleep for four hours a day, but the problem is that Liu Tai is talented, and sleeping for two hours a day is energetic.
I can't roll this person's physique again, so I'll let you see it now.
Chu Yi thought of this, and finally picked up the plan he wrote again, looked at it, and sorted it out by the way.
can only say that because he was planning along Liu Tai's train of thought at that time, many things almost instinctively passed through his head once, and he wrote it down along with it.
Looking back now, I also find that although the framework given by the county office is not the optimal solution at the moment, there is always a feeling that some pitfalls have been avoided, as if the future development will be better.
Looking back at these plans, Chu Yi was even a little puzzled, were these plans really made by himself?
can only say that with Liu Tai's departure, he withdrew from that special workaholic state, and then looked back at the plan he made according to the framework formulated by Liu Tai, and he was a little surprised what he thought at the beginning!
Just when Chu Yi was sorting out the copywriting one by one, his eyes fell on the handling of the Xianbei captives - the Xianbei transformation plan.
"Jun Gong, you really want to solve the difference between Hu and Han!" Chu Yu couldn't help but sigh.
