Chapter 504: What comes first?

While Zhao Xu was alone in a small room, laughing wildly and looking through the account books behind his mother and younger brother's back, Su You withdrew from bank affairs and started his daily work.

Set up work arrangements, listen to the case every morning, make briefings on all aspects, and give instructions.

Take a nap at the table for an hour at noon.

In the afternoon, I visited various workshops, scientific research institutes, rivers, and construction sites.

Occasionally, I would sneak away and chat with the visiting scholars in Kezhen Building, oh no, exchange ideas.

After dinner in the evening, I had to check the wax-engraved books of the scholars, read the letters, and reply to those who needed to be answered one by one.

The recovery standards are quite high, and I have to answer poems at every turn, which is more brain-intensive than math questions.

Moreover, Zhao Xu or Tang Tietou would send people to call him every once in a while to disturb Su You's normal work. After all, this kid still carried the identity of a Hanlin scholar.

Tang Tietou is now concentrating on the hard problem of accumulated debt. The task of managing the triangular debt is actually mainly the responsibility of Su You.

Bianjing's current economic structure looks very scary, but compared to later generations, it is much simpler.

After really excluding the inner government and the yamen under the Planning Department, and focusing on those parts that Tang Tietou personally handled, the remaining real business affairs were nothing compared to Shuzhong.

So although Su You lived a fulfilling life every day, he was actually a little pampered.

That day, Su You was supervising work in the northwest of the imperial city when Li Xian came.

In the Song Dynasty, the country was governed by benevolence and filial piety. The first thing the emperor did when he came to power was to build palaces for his elders.

The two new palaces were naturally responsible for the supervision. The one belonging to the Empress Dowager was called Qingshou Palace, and the one belonging to the Empress Dowager was called Baoci Palace.

Li Xian looked at the two tall wooden beams and columns and couldn't help but marveled: "It's really amazing. In the past, the two halls took at least a year to build, but now it seems that they can be completed in half a year? How did you do it?"

Su You wore a rattan helmet on his head and smiled at Li Xian: "With sawing machines, planers, standard-sized components, as well as hand chain hoists, scaffolding fasteners and other equipment, I won't do anything unless the efficiency is quadrupled.

It's so embarrassing to talk."

Li Xian said in a low voice: "When will I go to Daliang? I will mention it to the official's house and come over to see the Western view."

Su You also said in a low voice: "The Fireworks Preparatory Office has produced more than a hundred magical muskets, and the commanders of the Fourth Army are making a lot of noise. I think it would be more appropriate to equip the internal guards first."

"The Imperial City Department is closest to Your Majesty, but their duties are more to spy on Bianjing news and are not needed. Kuanyi Tianwu looks like a member of the honor guard. To put it bluntly, it is just for decoration. Therefore, the best recipient of the divine weapon is Yulong.

Bows and arrows and crossbows, after all, magic guns and crossbows are both long-range weapons."

Li Xian touched his chin and smiled. This exchange of favors was not a loss. Now he knew which direction to move.

After the two of them finished laughing, Su You asked: "Is the emissary here just to monitor the progress of the project?"

Li Xian said: "This is one of them. In addition, when the officials have free time in the afternoon, they invite Bachelor Sima to give lectures. Wen Gong, Han Gong are all here. By the way, there is also Fu Gong. He said that your suggestions for treating soft foot disease are excellent. Before leaving,

I wanted to meet with you beforehand, and your Majesty has forgiven me."

In the afternoon of that day, Zhao Xu met with the ministers at Yiying Pavilion.

According to history, when Fu Bi came to visit this time, because of his foot illness, Zhao Xu specifically ordered him to ride in a carriage to the gate of the palace, and ordered his son Shaoting to come in, but not to bow.

Now Fu Bi no longer needed it, but he still used the Qiong staff.

Sima Guang read "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" until Su Qin made an appointment with the Six Kingdoms.

At the end of the lecture, Zhao Xu asked: "How can Su Qin and Zhang Yi do this if their tongues drop three inches?"

Sima Guang replied: "The art of vertical and horizontal tactics is actually not conducive to governing the country. The reason why I wanted to write it down in the book is to let future generations know that the custom at that time was that debate was the highest, and the king listened to it when he was aware of the country.

The so-called 'eloquent word that conquers the country' belongs to them."

Zhao Xu said: "When I heard that Qing was studying, I forgot about my fatigue all day long."

Then he turned to Wen Yanbo and others and said: "There are so many troubles in the world that we must start a revolution... Sirs, is there anything you can do?"

Wen Yanbo said: "Your Majesty, this is like a harp that is out of tune. It must be unstrung first and then re-strung."

Han Jiang said: "In order to establish political affairs, there should be a sequence of big and small. The so-called outline and outline should start with the big and urgent things."

Fu Bi knew that Zhao Xu was very capable, so he advised: "The likes and dislikes of a ruler should not be observed, but if they are observed, the traitor will be able to understand his intentions."

"Your Majesty should judge people like the heavens, and you will find out what is good and what is bad, and then punish and reward them accordingly, so that all merits and demerits will be realized."

Zhao Xu sighed: "Today's financial management is the most urgent task. To maintain troops and prepare for the border, the treasury is indispensable. Ministers should pay attention to spending money sparingly."

"The Chinese style of tattooing is not in vain. It will take decades to achieve results. In other words, things must be done without force."

Fu Bi said: "Your Majesty has not been on the throne for a long time. He must first deploy his troops and fight together. The consequences are not small. Even if he has been silent for twenty years, it is not appropriate to reward him for his side merits."

Su You bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the virtue of Chinese culture is not in wearing clothes and clothes, but in making people's livelihood secure and food and clothing secure. What Fu Gong said about not talking about military affairs refers to the past twenty years of the Song Dynasty.

The general strategic policy is not to not fight at all."

"Han Gong has done a good job in Shaanxi. He built Gangu City, continued to extend the influence of the Song Dynasty to the Qing and Tang Dynasties, and cultivated the strategic situation to be more conducive to controlling the Qing and Tang Dynasties."

"This is a natural measure taken as the strength of Guanzhong increases. What is said is that things will fall into place."

"If the strategic situation of Shaanxi is based on Weizhou as the head, Guanzhong as the heart, Qingtang as the left arm, and Hengshan as the right arm; then the Song Dynasty took Bianjing as the head, Sichuan Hangyang as the heart, and Shaanxi as the heart.

As the left arm, Hebei serves as the right arm to form an overall strategic defense posture."

"However, in the Song Dynasty, although the left arm is gradually recovering, the right arm is particularly weak. The reason for the weakness is that the Yellow River, which is the bloodline, has repeatedly exploded."

"Your Majesty, it's almost April now, and the peach blossom floods are starting to come. We need to be vigilant about the major floods in July and August."

"I think the inspection of river affairs is of the utmost importance. The people of Hebei cannot afford to be drowned again..."

Zhao Xu was silent for a long time: "Su You, you have been in charge of this place for a long time. Now that you have arrived in Beijing, you should not just bury yourself in practical matters. You should learn to broaden your horizons."

"Emperor Renzong has been very kind to you, and I also have high hopes for you. I need you to improve yourself as soon as possible. Do you understand?"

Damn, I was criticized! Su You quickly bowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your advice."

Zhao Xu then said to the others: "Masters, who should be the first to rule?"

Han Jiang said: "Grooming comes first."

Wen Yanbo said: "Frugality comes first."

Sima Guang said: "Look at people first."

Fu Bi said: "Fu'an Yu Nei comes first."

Su You looked at the big bosses: "Well, I think what you all said is reasonable, so why not do everything at the same time, for example, Han Gong is responsible for sorting out the system, Wen Gong is responsible for managing wealth, Sima Gong is responsible for detecting people's loyalty and treachery, and wealthy Gong is responsible for

…”

Said that there was a misfire here, Fu Bi said that Fu'an Yunei must be the prime minister.

Fu Bi smiled slightly: "I am old and decayed and suffering from diseases. I am already worried about whether I can manage Ruzhou for your majesty. I am worried that I will not be able to do what I do."

Zhao Xu also wanted to persuade him to stay: "Mr. Rich, how about you stay here as an envoy to watch the celebration and prepare for consultation?"

Fu Bi's attitude was resolute: "Han Gong went to Shaanxi, and Ouyang went to Chenzhou. How can the old minister be so virtuous and capable that he can surpass the two princes? Your Majesty, please grant me permission and let me retain some honor."

Zhao Xu sighed: "Then please ask the rich man to nurse you back to health in Ruzhou. You, Han Qi, and Ouyang Xiu are important ministers of the two dynasties, and the court will have to rely on you more in the future."

Fu Bi breathed a sigh of relief, bowed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."
