Chen Xi hates moral issues, because once the problem extends to morality, it means that he has basically lost his ability to solve the problem.
Because moral problems can only be solved by morality, and once morality is corrupted, it will really be like a thousand-mile dike bursting in an ant nest, and the whole thing will be ruined.
On the contrary, the annual purchase cost of 300 billion yuan is not a big problem. As long as the processing industry can digest the harvested grain, it will only produce more profits.
In this process, it is enough to offset the losses caused by buying grain at high prices and selling grain at low prices. Theoretically speaking, as long as your own plate is big enough, it can be enough to make up for this shortfall.
The prosperity of industrialization can offset the loss of agricultural population, so as long as the loss in a certain link can be compensated from the whole, it is acceptable.
The premise is that the country is willing to deny it. Of course, this problem does not exist in the current situation of the Han Dynasty. At present, the Han Dynasty is equivalent to denying it in advance from the beginning, and does not involve the subsequent issue of willingness or unwillingness.
It can be said that Liu Bei's proposal actually only has a price inversion problem. This problem was experienced by the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union bought grain from the agricultural population at a high price and then supplied bread at a low price.
This sounds very good, but this low-price supply of bread means that the price of bread of the same weight is lower than the price of grain, so farmers in the Soviet Union began to feed pigs with bread...
That's all. The problem is that Liu Bei directly harvests unlimited grain and then sells it at low prices. To be honest, Chen Xi cannot stand this kind of gameplay. Even if he directly issues grain subsidies, it is true to switch to this.
No, because this means unlimited cash out.
Wouldn't it be nice to buy grain for seventy cents and then sell it to the government for one hundred and fifty cents?
Liu Bei quickly thought of this, and couldn't help but turn a little pale. He also understood what this meant, but he just didn't notice it for a moment...
"Sorry, I have made your work very difficult." Liu Bei sighed and Chen Xi shook his head. This is not a problem, at least for Chen Xi, it is not implemented anyway.
"Actually, I prefer not to keep the price of grain and just sell it like this. There is low-priced grain in the market, and others can buy it if they want. There is no low-priced grain anymore. The official price of grain of 150 yuan is there." Chen Xi
He said with a calm expression, "It didn't cause any problems in itself, so don't create problems, so just operate like this for now."
"It's just that the food prices in different places are not exactly the same." Liu Bei thought for a while and said, he hoped it would be fair, at least in this aspect.
"How can it be possible for prices in this huge country to be consistent everywhere? As long as they are generally in a healthy and stable range," Chen Xi said with a sigh, "At least in my opinion, this level is generally healthy and stable.
Things like perfection, being in an ideal world and wanting to be completely perfect, are too time consuming.”
"Zichuan, you have made me disillusioned with your thoughts." Liu Bei suddenly said.
"I've said it very early on, I can't solve every problem to perfection. I can only say that I can refer to the actual situation as much as possible and solve it to a more appropriate level." Chen Xi said seriously, "My education has made me become
A person who can keep moving forward, not a god, and being a human being inevitably requires compromise with reality."
Chen Xi is doing well, not being perfect. There is a big difference between the two.
Chen Xi knew from the beginning that the most limit he could achieve was the Han cultural circle, a Han cultural circle that covered half of the world's civilization, was full of vigor and had an unlimited future. As for going further, Chen Xi knew very well that he did not have enough time.
.
Even if they work hard to knock down Rome, what will be built on the ruins is a new Rome, not a new Han Dynasty, and it will also make the new Rome hate the Han Dynasty abnormally.
Crossing the distance of half the world is still too difficult for this era. Even with the support of aristocratic families who grew up in Central Asia, Chen Xi also realizes the limits of this era.
Even if the so-called extreme wall of the empire can be broken, even if the base of another empire is absorbed, the bonus of food, grass and logistics can be obtained, and the power of the whole country can be concentrated into a fist, the distance of 30,000 miles is enough to become the abyss of heaven.
In this situation, it is already difficult to win. After winning, it is even harder to absorb. It should even be said that it cannot be absorbed at all.
In this era, only two countries have so-called patriotic education, so Chen Xi is inclined to cultural erosion. Even if cultural erosion fails, it is better for two peak civilizations with black hair and black eyes to stand on top of the world, so Chen Xi realizes his
The ultimate empire-level power was enough to withstand the pressure caused by Chen Xi.
Maybe you can't resist it, maybe you can resist it, but as long as you keep the distance, Chen Xi's influence is not unlimited. This is a fact, so Chen Xi's attitude becomes increasingly clear. I will do what I can do first, and others will think
If you do, you can help if you can without violating yourself.
"I was mistaken." Liu Bei nodded and said. He did not use Chen Xi as an all-powerful internal affairs wizard at the beginning. When Chen Xi was at his most vulnerable, he even needed Liu Bei's sword to subdue everyone.

Speaking of which, the sword is still on the shelf in Chen Xi's study, but after that period, Chen Xi quickly became stronger, so powerful that it shocked Liu Bei, and gradually made Liu Bei lose touch with Chen Xi.
cognition.
Although it is not directly said that Chen Xi is omnipotent, in Liu Bei's understanding, internal affairs for Chen Xi is equivalent to whether he is willing or not, not whether he is able.
As time went by, this sense continued to deepen. When Yuan Feng changed dramatically, it was difficult for Liu Bei to think that Chen Xi was a human being. People should not be so outrageous, at least not so nonsense.
This concept and senses continued to deepen, until one day Chen Xi suddenly asked Liu Bei if he was a human, and said with a smile that it was impossible for humans to remember so many soldiers. It was not until that time that Liu Bei suddenly noticed the changes in himself.
.
At the same time, Liu Bei realized that Chen Xi's strength was tempered little by little. He might be very strong, but there was still a gap between the Chen Xi of the past and the Chen Xi of today.
Someone who can grow, become stronger, and can solve problems is a human being, just a stronger person.
"Although I always hope that you can be as almighty as I thought, you still have to be realistic." Liu Bei said with a hint of guilt.
"Wait?" Chen Xi suddenly said, "Mr. Xuande, have you misunderstood?"
This time it was Liu Bei's turn to be stunned, then he thought about it and said, "There is no misunderstanding."
"No, I definitely misunderstood. My answer is that it is a suitable result after comprehensive consideration, not a perfect result, because it involves too many areas and is a waste of time." Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei and said seriously, it's not that it can't be done.
, but not worth it. You can't think that my unworthiness means that I can't do it. This is not good.
Yes, Chen Xi can solve this problem, because there will be an answer to this question in later generations. Although this answer is a dynamic answer, and it is still a bunch of very troublesome solutions, and the policy is gradually advanced and completed slowly, but this is indeed
is the answer.
What's more important is that this thing is essentially in line with the current agricultural taxation, price allocation, subsidy and other systems. In other words, copying can be done. The problem is that the return on investment ratio is not worth it, so Chen Xi gave up copying.
Just take something similar and put it on top.
"In other words, it's not worth it." Liu Bei was silent for a while. He now has a complicated attitude towards Chen Xi. You have spent 150 billion, but the rest will actually make you feel that it is not worth it.
"Yes, it's not worth it." Chen Xi nodded, "This involves gradual tax reduction until tax exemption, and finally reverse subsidies, market leveling, logistics development, global considerations, grading system, optimal allocation point, and extremely high
The ability to resist risks.”
"You have invested 150 billion, do you still care about this?" Liu Bei looked at Chen Xi's unusual confusion. In his opinion, these things are not what Chen Xi is doing?
"The problem is that I can't solve these problems if I invest another 150 billion. These problems will continue to create new links and new problems with the development of the times. They can't be solved with money by just messing around. These things require precious manpower.
Only resources can solve it." Chen Xi said dejectedly, this is not a question of money, it is a question of the development of the times.
For a large country whose internal framework structure has been completed and whose industrial structure has gradually become complete, the essence of many problems will only fall on the population, whether it is quality or quantity, the final destination will only be these two.
"What hinders me from moving forward is not my ability. Even if I rely on my ability as much as possible to promote these things, what really hinders me is the overall population size." Chen Xi said with lamentation, "If there are 100 million people
, I can even fight on two fronts, but I can’t.”
A population of 100 million means that the unemployed population can further increase. Even if the existing unemployed rate is maintained, there will still be a population of 7 million. These populations exclude the management population, the shares of major aristocratic families, and the semi-employed population required by industry.
, give half to Sun Qian, and the rest is enough to start a two-sided war.
To defeat the Chu State, only 200,000 troops are needed, and to overthrow the Chu State, 600,000 troops are needed. Similarly, to defeat the Kushan State, it requires 300,000 troops, so to overthrow the Kushan State, it may take 1 million. If replaced by Rome, this number may be
2 million is needed.
Unfortunately, there wasn't, so Chen Xi could only use other methods to fool around.
The difference between big countries and small countries is too big. Just like the Chinese people in later generations mocked the small countries in Africa and Central and South America. Seeing those small countries being manipulated one after another, many keyboard warriors said that they were really rubbish and did not understand politics.
I don’t understand industry, I don’t understand military, etc…
In fact, do you really not understand? Actually, no, I do understand, but it’s useless.
Being born in a big country itself represents a kind of luck. It’s not that the elites of those countries don’t understand, it’s that even if they understand, they can’t solve any problems. It’s not that those people’s will is not bright enough, nor that those people are not brave enough and fearless of death. The so-called human beings
It’s easier to eat when there are fewer people, but it’s easier to work when there are more people, that’s it.
Even if there are more people, there will be a lot of weird species, but more people means more samples. Even the lowest level of probability means the number of card draws.
The card pool can only be drawn one million times, and it can be drawn more than one billion times, which are completely different concepts. Especially when the probability is extremely slim, the number of card draws almost represents the future.
Chen Xi wanted to do many things, but the education he received made him understand that no matter how great a plan is, it will eventually fall to the ground. The incitement of words can only bring temporary enthusiasm, but the practice of ideals can make people move forward courageously.
To put it simply, the ideals of idealists are the most precious treasures only when they are realized. The ideals that cannot be realized are just empty declarations after drunkenness.
"So you chose a relatively appropriate way to complete it?" Liu Bei thought he understood Chen Xi's answer.
"No, I just chose the plan to realize my ideal as quickly as possible." Chen Xi said seriously. In fact, this is a completely unscientific answer.
Liu Bei didn't think this was unscientific, so he nodded, while Chen Xi just smiled, because Liu Bei didn't understand how outrageous this was, and he didn't need to explain it at all.
In fact, the local optimum is hardly the global optimum, and the global optimum is impossible to achieve unless you can observe the future. In Chen Xi's case, he can basically guarantee the global optimum, even if he cannot achieve it.
The real optimal can at least be close to this optimal.
This is completely unscientific and unreasonable. Even the supercomputer of future generations will not be able to do it. Theoretically, apart from observing the future, it is nonsense.
It's a pity that no one thinks it is unreasonable, not even the wise men of this era think it is unreasonable. They just think they can't do it, and they don't realize how outrageous it is that they can do it.
As for Liu Bei, he couldn't even understand the problem with this kind of thinking. Even Zhuge Liang and others didn't think there was a problem. Liu Bei was like seeing flowers in the fog.
Therefore, Liu Bei sincerely stated that although he did not understand Chen Xi's solution to the problem at all, he bluntly said that he gave Chen Xi high praise out of admiration for Chen Xi, but Chen Xi always felt that this praise was
Aiming for the 150 billion.
"I'll go back and draw up a framework and send it back to explain my ideas. Zijing and Kong Ming can do it almost. When I go back, I'll do some on-the-spot investigation and make some changes. We'd better set off quickly and wait until we get there.
At the Ganges River port, we will arrive at Brahmas soon." Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei and said calmly.
Liu Bei nodded. He had already arrived at Wenjia. It would take at most three or four days to reach the Ganges port. Zhong Yao had already prepared a large number of boats there. By then, there would be no need to take a boat to Brahmas.
