: The soldiers and horses have not moved, but the food and grass go first

Some time after the end of the DPRK meeting, various tasks in Zhongyuan were advanced in an orderly manner. After all, the tone had been set, and the rest were all details.

There are indeed some things like moths, but generally the situation is indeed stable and making progress.

The noisy Yuan Shu was also tortured by a group of aristocratic families.

After all, Yuan Shu really aroused public anger this time, and the entire old Yuan family was also affected.

However, after Yuan Shu resisted a wave of sanctions, his toughness was just like that. The Yuan family was a fool and could withstand the oppression of all the noble families.

The other aristocratic families were furious, but there was no way to really kill Yuan Shu.

Who makes the Yuan family really tough? Not to mention the Four Court Pillars of Hebei. Each one of them is a mainstay. Even the sons of Yan Liang and Wen Chou are very strong. At such a young age, both of them have internal energy that leaves their bodies.

If he hadn't been affected by Yuan Shao's factors, and if he was determined to mess with Yuan Tan, he might have led an army on his own and started going to the battlefield.

Coupled with the care and attention of Shen Pei and others, and the support of the Yuan family's own disciples and former officials, the Yuan family has indeed withstood the first wave of attacks from the aristocratic family.

As for the follow-up, each family is busy preparing things for going abroad and has no time to continue entangled with the Yuan family.

The Yuan family also understood that this stall could not continue to be a desperate business, so they sent Yuan Shu to the coastal areas to build roads, and stayed out of sight with other families for the time being.

Chen Xi also breathed a sigh of relief. Originally, he had some intention of mediating. After all, if the fight got really angry later, it could easily turn into a party fight, which was not something that one or two families could settle.

The aristocratic family cannot fall down at this stage, and they are still expected to make a name for themselves in the future.

Fortunately, no one wanted to die with Yuan Shu, a madman, so they all tacitly banished Yuan Shu so that he could not cause trouble in Luoyang for the time being.

This is also a helpless compromise made by the Yuan family, but a compromise is a compromise, and they are actually very satisfied with Yuan Shu's behavior.

The old Yuan family wants to be the father of all aristocratic families, and wants to ride on their heads. Come and beat me if you can.

But after the noise subsided, the rest was still peaceful.

But everyone knows that this is just the calm before the storm, and the war between Rome and Parthia is about to officially begin.

The strength of the Church Crusaders is good, but trying to kill Parthia is just a dream. When the Church hits a hard nail and is beaten back.

It was time for the Han Dynasty to enter. After the Han Dynasty entered, if Rome had any strategic vision, it would definitely send troops, and it would send troops without reservation on the premise of holding back Great Britain.

If Rome does not send troops, it proves that Rome is just like that, and the Han Dynasty does not need to take it seriously. A country that is not even willing to kill its old enemies is just like that.

The most that can be done is to let the Han Dynasty shed some blood, and the Parthian Han Dynasty will be destroyed anyway.

If Rome sends troops, it will divide Parthia in two.

If Rome does not send troops, it will eat the entire Parthia, then harass Rome on behalf of Parthia and lend a helping hand to Great Britain.

Making friends at a distance and attacking at close range is nothing more than this.

However, from Chen Xi's point of view, he still hopes that Rome will send troops. The domestic pressure will be smaller. If there is any blood, development will stagnate or even regress.

Now is considered the golden period for the development of the Han Dynasty. If it stagnates and retreats, it will still be very harmful to its overall layout.

But these were things that had to be experienced, so Chen Xi didn't say much.

It was just that we made corresponding adjustments in conjunction with the two plans, striving to make economic development more stable during the war.

"So, what is this all about?" Chen Xi was a little bit crazy. There were flaws in the plan he deployed just from the beginning.

Officials promoted from the bottom are too easily disturbed by corruption. Someone actually dared to touch the strategic reserve granary that he had repeatedly issued.

Although the report says that Huo Long lost his position, doesn't this mean he is being treated as a fool?

"Who else has nothing to do now?" Chen Xi asked with an extremely ugly face.

"Man Boning and Liu Ziyang should go check some things. They should be fine recently!" Jia Xu thought for a while and said.

In fact, there are many people who are fine, but looking at Chen Xi's face, he wants a cool official.

"Very good, then issue an official document now to transfer all strategic granaries from various places to the Western Region." Chen Xi ordered simply.

"Deploy them all?" Jia Xu frowned.

"That's right, all of them are transferred. Our country has had good weather in the past few years, and the replacement of improved varieties has basically been completed. The treasury in various places should have stored enough grain for a year." Chen Xi said coldly.

"As long as this target is not completed, unless there are special circumstances, the strategic grain reserves will definitely store grain for about half a year according to the local population!"

This is a system established by Chen Xi due to his hamster nature, in order to prevent natural and man-made disasters.

"When Man Boning comes back, inform him that if there is a fire in the food and grass allocation this time, all the officials at any level of the treasury at that level will be captured." Chen Xixu knocked on the table twice and ordered coldly.

"Isn't this a bit excessive? After all, if a county-level treasury catches fire, it will not be easy to replace it if all the officials in charge of the county are taken down." Jia Xu frowned and said, "take it down

Just contact the relevant personnel."

Chen Xi's punishment was a bit harsh even in his opinion. How many officials were there? It could easily cause the local political and economic collapse.

"This thing is different from others. Even the strategic reserve grains dare to be touched. Other things are not necessarily fatal. When something happens to this thing, it will be fatal. If it is moved, just hit it directly. Find out if it is really a fire. Which system

Those who are greedy will take it, those who are greedy will take it all."

Chen Xi is decisive. If you are greedy for something, Chen Xi is too lazy to take care of it. If you dare to touch the strategic reserves, you will be killed immediately.

Even if it is not greed, causing a fire, it is definitely a matter of dereliction of duty.

Of course, if it is really a meteorite falling from the sky or something, then Chen Xi thinks he can distinguish it as appropriate. Otherwise, if there are any problems, he will take them all.

"That's no problem, but after we take it, the local officials..." Before Jia Xu could finish his words, he was interrupted by Chen Xi.

"Directly adjust all local factory leadership teams, and then promote members from the factory to management."

"In addition, when students are transferred from the academy to take up posts, although their abilities are not outstanding, there is no problem in maintaining stability as long as the team is sound."

Chen Xi had long been on guard against such a move. Anyway, what is needed to govern a place is basically conscientiousness.

He didn't want to ask these people to make any decent political achievements. As long as they maintained stability, it would be enough. After the court had dealt with the trouble, they could directly transfer the veterans to these places to serve as basic officials.

Although there will definitely be some problems, as a temporary measure, it has to be implemented vigorously and resolutely.

Compared with capable worms, mediocre officials who fulfill their duties may not be able to achieve as outstanding political achievements as they do, but for the country, these mediocre officials are the real cornerstone.

If that doesn't work, just send a few officials from Luoyang.

There may not be many capable ministers in the Han Dynasty to govern the country, but there should not be too many wise men to govern a county or a state. Although some are overqualified and ineffective, they are better than useless.

"The Ministry of Life and Punishment has prepared several investigation teams to conduct private interviews in various counties and counties to find out the local situation and prevent the spread of corruption." Chen Xi said to the clerk responsible for recording.

He was really mesmerized by the prosperity, and almost ignored the greed of human nature. Morality as a criterion is too easy to be breached. Effective and powerful legal provisions must be used to better restrain power.

But when it came to this, Chen Xi was silent for a while, and then decided to increase the salaries of all officials.

After all, the economy has developed rapidly in recent years, and if the salaries of officials at all levels cannot make ends meet, it will indeed be more likely to breed corruption.

These are all factors that need to be considered, but making a mistake is a mistake and you must accept punishment.

"Is it necessary to mobilize so much grain and grass?" Jia Xu calculated the output of grain reserves in various places and took a breath of cold air.

To be honest, he is also a man who has seen the world, but this output still shocked him.

Regardless of the freshness of the grain and the loss of transportation, the grain transported through Congling is probably enough to feed the Congling garrison for twenty years. This amount is really exaggerated.

"Not only to prepare food for war, but also for subsequent relocation, appeasing the people, and recruiting refugees. These are all needed, and they may even be insufficient!" Chen Xi said the words in an understatement that made Jia Xu frightened.

To be honest, Jia Xu himself also understands the economy, but he is very aware of the gap between himself and Chen Xi.

Although he was a little confused, it didn't stop him from thinking about it from other angles.

For example, the grain to support Cao Mengde, or the grain to trade with Parthia, these are all good ways to deal with this batch of grain.

"Be prepared for a rainy day. One step counts for ten steps!" Jia Xu sighed and decided not to continue arguing with Chen Xi on this matter. The gap between the two was obvious.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. I have already done the research on the aristocratic family. I think there are some things that are very valuable. Take a look!" Jia Xu said and took out a stack of investigation reports.

He was not idle. Ever since each family in Shanglinyuan showed their magical powers, he visited each family one by one and checked the research direction and progress of each family.

It was difficult for these aristocratic families to hide anything in front of him. After such investigation, he did find a lot of good things.

According to his speculation, these good projects have full potential, and many of them can be put into production immediately.

So he brought it to Chen Xi. These things would definitely be most effective in Chen Xi's hands.

"Thunder-inducing platform? Well, this is indeed a good thing. It is of great value for agricultural production!" Chen Xi was a little surprised when he saw the first one.

Jia Xu showed a puzzled expression. If he remembered correctly, this thunder platform should be marked with strategic secrets. Why did it fall into Chen Xi's hands? At first glance, it seemed to involve agricultural development.

.

"Let's see, the Wang family, right? I have approved this project and will first give them 100 million yuan to directly carry out a joint development with farmers in the experimental fields near Luoyang. If the follow-up progress is good, let them promote this nationwide!"

Chen Xi was greatly impressed, then wrote a check and attached it to it, and asked the staff on the side to go to the Wang family to hand it over.

"Wen He, you have a very unique vision, but is there something wrong with the markings on it? How does the thunder platform function in strategic secrets?" Chen Xi looked at the markings above with some confusion.

"Use sky thunder to defeat the army? This idea is not impossible, but it just feels unrealistic..." Chen Xi pondered, if this thing could be made into a drop-down type, wouldn't it become a lightning storm? It seems to be quite feasible.

Have a future.

"I'm adding an additional 100 million, let them continue research!" Although he felt it was a bit unrealistic, Chen Xi directly added an additional 100 million. Anyway, he had a lot of money, so he invested in such a promising project.

"Do you think this thing has a future?"

Jia Xu raised his eyebrows. It seemed that it wasn't his judgment that was wrong, but that there was some knowledge about this thunder platform that he didn't know. It could be used both for military and civilian purposes. The Wang family was really powerful.
To be continued...
