With this method of killing anyone who refuses to accept it, Chen Xi is confident that he will create an upper-level economic integration based on the current natural economy of the Han Dynasty. Although it does not need to be deepened, any opponent who can be killed with money is no opponent!
After collecting the land from the aristocratic family, Chen Xi will not distribute it all to the people. Considering the current situation in the Central Plains, the land is enough. The land collected will be used as official land, whether it is used as a disaster reserve or as food for animal husbandry.
It doesn't matter.
This land does not belong to any individual, it is directly in the name of the government. As long as the Han Dynasty does not end, these lands will continue to be retained.
In addition, costs will plummet after large-scale intensification of certain industries, and the Han Dynasty itself is large enough, and resources in various places are focused on it. By then, roads will be built, the state will be in charge of material distribution, and the industries of prefectures and counties will be well planned.
Chen Xi is confident that he can reduce costs to a certain level by relying on different resources from different places. What he needs to do next is distribution. In this way, while the connection between various states and counties is strengthened, there will also be rebellions in a single state and county.
becomes difficult.
In particular, certain states and counties were defined by Chen Xi as resource-exporting or resource-processing states and counties due to resources and other reasons. If such a place wants to engage in armed struggle, just cut off the Sifang Road. Hey, the independence of the natural economy has been lost.
, will soon disintegrate on its own.
Of course, this is an ideal state. Chen Xi estimates that even if the road is really built, it may not be possible to reach that level. The country is too big to manage, and I am afraid that there will be many similar projects in the Han Dynasty.
These are simply unavoidable things. After all, material distribution also has costs. Once the distance increases to a certain extent, the price will be enough to give Chen Xi a headache.
Unless Chen Xi has the ability, like later generations, to calculate the most suitable locations for distribution channels in various regions of the country, and the best layout of road planning.
But to be fair, these things in later generations have been optimized by supercomputers from generation to generation. If it were really calculated by humans, there would be hundreds of thousands of nodes across the country. Finding a minimum value that would be enough for a genius like Cai Yan would take hundreds of years.
, and every additional point is enough to be considered crazy.
So Chen Xi felt that if he really wanted to plan something like that, unless he was a monster like Zhao Shuang who could explode a super-speed computing mental talent, making the calculation speed soar to the trillions of supercomputers. If you have this ability, many things will be simple.
.
It is estimated that with this level of calculation speed, it would only take minutes to calculate a path planning map with hundreds of thousands of nodes, including the geographical distribution of mountains and rivers, and calculate an optimal solution, which is about a factorial of hundreds of thousands minus one.
Choose an optimal solution among the solutions.
Although Chen Xi doesn't know how big the factorial of hundreds of thousands is, Chen Xi knows that one hundred nodes seem to have a solution starting with nine, one hundred and fifty-seventh power. Although many solutions look very silly to normal people.
, but it is the solution after all...
Therefore, if it is placed on hundreds of thousands of nodes, Chen Xi does not think that human power can calculate the optimal solution at all, especially when the terrain is also taken into account.
Of course, these are things that were only formally involved in the middle and later stages. What Chen Xi wants to do is actually relatively simple, and even if the optimal solution cannot be calculated, as long as Chen Xi does it, it will be of great benefit to the entire Han Dynasty.
.
Integrating resources is of self-evident significance to a country, especially for an empire with a huge territory and numerous resources. The significance is very huge, so Chen Xi needs to do it regardless of whether there is an optimal solution or not.
After all, relying on experience, even if Chen Xi couldn't come up with the optimal solution, he could at least come up with a nearly suitable solution and deal with it.
Although these are all things in the middle and late stages according to Chen Xi's definition, they are actually paving the way for the later stage and even the more distant future. After all, when the empire approaches the extreme wall of the territory, enfeoffment has become the only solution to the problem.
.
At that time, although economic integration cannot solve all problems, it will at least allow the sovereign state to maintain a little control over its vassals. Therefore, on the one hand, it is inevitable for each region to integrate its domestic resources and take the most suitable path.
Experiments on upper-level economic integration must also be carried out in advance to prepare for the future.
Chen Xi felt that no one would be able to see what he was doing. The effect would only be seen when someone takes advantage of it later.
Xun Yu listened to Chen Xi's explanation. Although it was not too in-depth, he still understood the simplest and clearest part. At least in terms of resource integration, he could already understand the benefits. And as Chen Xi said, this all belongs to the country.
Level of control.
In the current situation, although everyone is nominally affiliated with the Han Empire, it is actually shared by the three parties, and only the banks can be involved in state control. As for other things, there is really no connection.
"Indeed, if the resources from various places are integrated according to what Zichuan said, it will not be a problem for the Han Dynasty to become stronger. It is just a simple adjustment, but there will be such a huge change." After Xun Yu thought about it carefully, he couldn't help but think about it.
He looked at Chen Xi disrespectfully.
"Actually, there will be some adjustments to the division of labor later, but those are relatively detailed things, and in the current social environment, a rougher social division of labor is more suitable. Refinement only needs to focus on a few aspects." Chen Xi seemed to
Just like talking to oneself.
"Hey, hey, hey, if you want to listen, just go and listen. What are you talking about in such a sneaky way?" Fan Qin slapped Liu Ba on the back, frightening Liu Ba who was listening to Chen Xi's explanation with open ears and was deeply impressed.
A big jump.
"Uncle Huber, what are you doing?" Liu Ba said angrily.
It is said that Liu Ba is doing well under Cao Cao now. Cao Cao has Liu Ba to support the economy. Although he has done a lot of things that should be done, Cao Cao inexplicably found that money is not as tight as before, and the circulation of money and grain does not need to be as tight as before.
I was overthinking things like that before.
In addition, after Liu Ba learned and applied some of the theories he got from Chen Xi, Cao Cao found that he actually had some money left, which was simply magical.
Therefore, Cao Cao likes Liu Ba very much, and everyone else also respects Liu Ba very much. Who doesn't like a person who can get money at any time, especially a character like Cao Hong who loves money as much as his life? He almost wants to treat Liu Ba as an uncle.
I got married, so Liu Ba was very open.
Many times when something important happened to Cao Cao, even if it had nothing to do with Liu Ba, Cao Cao would call Liu Ba over to show respect, but Liu Ba basically didn't speak and just listened.
Every time Cao Cao asked, Liu Ba would just tell his thoughts, and then add that he was specialized in arts, that he was not familiar with political strategies, and that he was good at managing money. For other things, he asked the lord to ask other people, and then
Recommend suitable people to Cao Cao.
This kind of person who is not greedy for merit and likes to give advice to others can easily get away with Cao Cao. Basically no one in the top management is dissatisfied with Liu Ba.
But Liu Ba himself felt bitter in his heart. He knew Liu Bei's power better than anyone else. If even Xun Yu admired his ability to manage money, then Chen Xi's ability to manage money was enough for Liu Ba to worship him, so Liu Ba
Ba never said that he managed money very well, and was very low-key and humble. This made everyone in Cao Ying even more satisfied.
Now that he had the opportunity to listen to Chen Xi's nonsense, Liu Ba was naturally willing to eavesdrop. However, it was really embarrassing to be caught by Fan Qin and his eavesdropping was discovered, so he looked at Fan Qin with a bad expression.
"Brother-in-law, you don't mind if we two listen, I think what you're talking about is very interesting." Fan Qin said with a smile in Chen Xi's direction.
Chen Xi smiled at Fan Qin. Liu Ba and Fan Qin rode over and bowed to Xun Yu. After Fan Qin and Xun Yu looked at each other, Xun Yu basically understood what he meant.
[I was also led by Chen Xi. I didn’t even think of such a simple thing. Although these things are subtle, they are mostly related to money and food. What Zichu heard may be more profound than I thought.] Xun Yu
I thought silently in my heart that in affirming Fan Qin's wit, Cao Ying, including Xun Yu, had to admit that Liu Ba was very good at managing money.
"Oh, Zichu, long time no see." Although Chen Xi hadn't seen Liu Ba for a long time, he still didn't know him.
"It's been a long time indeed, Marquis Chen." Liu Ba said with emotion, "I eavesdropped from a distance before, and I didn't hear much of the content clearly. Can you please tell Marquis Chen again?"
"Okay." Chen Xi started to talk nonsense again. Anyway, if Chen Xi talks about the same thing twice, the emphasis of both times will be slightly different. Although the general direction is the same, there will always be some differences.
However, Xun Yu listened carefully and had a good memory, and he could quickly compare the differences between the two times. Unfortunately, Xun Yu did not have a thorough understanding of economics, so it was difficult to find Chen Xi's preference.
Liu Ba listened with gusto, and slowly absorbed what Chen Xi said like a sponge. Although there were some things in it that Liu Ba completely thought were gangster theories, but if he thought about it carefully, the reality was indeed such gangsters.
"Actually, a lot of what I'm talking about exists in an ideal state. The current situation has not reached that situation. And Zichu, I'm afraid you can also feel that the social environment actually limits many of your means." Chen Xi sighed.
said.
"Without the bank, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to use the methods I have now. To put it too much, if I couldn't rely on the bank, I would be at best an official now." Liu Ba said with a smile.
At this time Xun Yu said, "Zichu, don't belittle yourself. Even if you don't have a bank, your knowledge of the money and food economy is enough to dominate the world."
"But without the bank, I have also lost my biggest offensive and defensive means. Even credit has no suitable target. Although I am currently using Chen Hou's credit, in essence, it has released part of the Han Dynasty's economic potential.
It looks like the whole country suddenly has money, but in fact the money itself exists." Liu Ba said with a sigh.
Xun Yu said that he didn't like talking to people like Liu Ba. He talked about economics and spoke in an incomprehensible way, so that they couldn't understand what the other party was saying.
"Well, actually, there was a money shortage in our country, and I didn't have any substitute at the time, so I could only use my credit to cover it. The biggest problem now is that there is nothing else that can cover it, and even if I want to withdraw, there is no way.
Withdrawal." Chen Xi curled his lips and said.
The money shortage in ancient China has never been solved, mainly because the general equivalent of copper coins is itself valuable, and China itself lacks copper mines.
Because Chen Xi was short of money before, he secretly used his own credit to release part of the country's economic potential. It was a different kind of national effort to support Liu Bei. Naturally, Liu Bei quickly gained weight as if he had taken hormones.
Originally, Chen Xi should have stopped after Liu Bei gained weight, but the saddest thing is that Chen Xi was already trapped in it at that time, and Chen Xi could not withdraw his over-issued credit currency. Of course, this was not because he did not have enough money.
The people who used this thing at that time had already discovered its convenience, which was of great benefit for large-scale material flows. Those people simply did not want Chen Xi to recycle the credit currency he had written blindly. If he did not recycle it and instead forcibly scrapped it,
Chen Xi felt that there was no need to risk his credit for billions of dollars.
Therefore, Chen Xi continued to issue with the idea of seeing how high his creditworthiness was. As a result, the credit currency guaranteed by Chen Xi's credit on the market is now worth more than 100 billion yuan. In fact, if he issues more than twice as much, it will basically be enough.
Solve the money shortage.
It's a pity that Chen Xi really doesn't have the guts to play like that. He is stuck with more than 120 billion yuan, which will no longer be issued. To be fair, based on the knowledge Chen Xi has learned, he roughly calculated that the huge market of more than 44 million people needs it.
The currency in circulation was more than 200 billion, but Chen Xi really didn't dare to sign it, but even so, it released the economic potential of the Han Dynasty to a great extent.
This is also Chen Xi's biggest headache at the moment. Now the entire Han Dynasty economy is actually tied to Chen Xi's own credit. Chen Xi just fills in the amount of money on a piece of paper, stamps three official seals and his own private seal, and then flows into the market.
This is real money!
This is almost like a fantasy novel, but this is the reality. Because of the prosperity caused by the release of economic potential, these credit currencies have become more and more recognized, and their circulation has also continued to rise. Until now, Chen Xi himself has no way to stop it.
.
If in the past, Chen Xi could forcibly abolish credit currency without moral integrity, now this thing is beyond Chen Xi's control. To destroy this system, unless Chen Xi is very powerful, he will issue more currency, but Chen Xi really doesn't have the guts. If this thing is super
The prices have skyrocketed, enough to drive people to death.
As for Chen Xi himself who said that credit currency should be abolished, this is basically useless. Now Chen Xi is basically the same as the People's Bank of China. It only has the function of printing money and recycling money. To abolish currency, it must be approved by a lot of people. It's not that you are saying that you are giving up your money and not playing.
