Su Ran rubbed her temples and said with a headache: "We just fought a battle.

"Second brother-in-law, don't you look at who is leading the troops?"

Li Jinglong said disdainfully: "Uncle Tiande is the number one god of war in our Ming Dynasty.

Coupled with the firearms you tinkered with, it is even more powerful!

These four places, Jiliao, Xuanda, are almost cut into pieces by the train tracks, right?

You eat the meat and gnaw the bones, so why don't you leave some soup for us?

Besides, the emperor can’t swallow such a large piece of land in the northern grassland, right?”

"Stop it!"

Su Ran immediately stopped him and said: "Your Majesty is eating meat.

The best I can do is use two chopsticks. "

"I know I know."

Li Jinglong rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "The emperor is definitely going to take the big one.

How about you give us some of these scraps?"

"...Let's do this. I'll tell the emperor that I can share some of it with you."

Su Ran rubbed her brows: "Also, have you found the people responsible for operations?

Those blood-sucking and flesh-eating stewards under your command cannot be used.

Your Majesty not only wants to make money, but also wants to subdue people.

The Beiyuan tribe was completely Chineseized. "

"Don't worry, second brother-in-law."

Li Jinglong's brows were filled with joy and he said repeatedly: "I've found all the people.

They are all masters of economic management and farming from technical secondary schools.

It’s not traditional grazing, it’s the standard captive breeding model!

It’s all about growing grass in enclosures!”

Hearing this, Su Ran couldn't help but shook his head, except for those merchants.

This group of nobles is the fastest to accept new things.

There are several PhDs in animal husbandry in the Department of Agriculture of the Royal Academy.

As soon as they came up with an ecological breeding and captive breeding model, they immediately learned a lot about it.

And took action.

"...You even dare to dig into the emperor's walls.

Su Ran shook her head helplessly: "Tell you,

His Majesty's grassland plan is to completely convert these Mongols to Han nationality.

So the first step is to let them into your pasture,

The second step is to register them as tenants, and the third step is to convert them to Han registration.

It doesn't matter if you make some money,

If you want to ruin His Majesty's good deeds, he may strip you of your skin. "

Li Jinglong laughed sarcastically, and then said shamelessly: "What about the right to use the train?

Second brother-in-law, building a farm requires a lot of money and manpower. "

"Don't worry about that."

Su Ran handed him a list: "Whatever you need over there, just buy it from them directly.

Your Majesty now wants to restore economic order in the north,

Therefore, this aspect of business is cheaper for them, so don’t get involved.

Also, don’t think that because they are businessmen, it’s easy to bully them.

They all belong to the imperial merchants under my control,

In addition, the carriage tracks on the King of Qin and King Jin's side are also being laid.

"Okay!" Li Jinglong's eyes suddenly lit up.

Although the information Su Ran revealed was not much, it was enough for him to prepare.

In the end, we are still on the side of our nobles.

He blinked and said, "Second brother-in-law, you haven't been to the Qinhuai River yet, have you?

How about I be the host and we go to Qinhuai Painting Boat tonight?"

Just one sentence made Su Ran's heart skip a beat.

Although Li Jinglong is younger than him, he still has the old silver coins in the Qinhe Painted Boat.

But then he suppressed the thought of commotion.

Not to mention Xu Miaoqing, Queen Ma is also in the village now.

It's better not to commit crimes yourself.

After driving Li Jinglong away, Su Ran flipped through documents from various places.

Now with the good news coming, he always feels that something is not quite right about the trends in various places.

At the beginning of the establishment of Huangshang, Zhu Yuanzhang allocated him some royal guards, who were placed by Su Ran at train stations in various places.

Specially responsible for investigating population movements in various places, as well as market price fluctuations of various materials.

I'm worried that Jin Yiwei won't be able to do such delicate work.

Su Ran had to transfer some students from the academy to serve.

After handling some important documents, Zhu Yuanzhang's eunuch hurried over.

"Su Jijiu, Your Majesty has something urgent to do and invites you to the palace."

Su Ran's heart suddenly sank, and she immediately followed the eunuch back to the palace.

As soon as he entered the palace gate, he heard Zhu Yuanzhang's roar in Chengtian Hall.

Su Ran's heart tightened, and she rushed over in two steps.

In the main hall, porcelain fragments were scattered all over the floor.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were almost on fire, and Zhu Biao's face was also very ugly.

Su Ran was not worried about any problems.

Because no matter what he does now, he does it under Lao Zhu's eyes. And he will explain clearly the cause and effect of the matter.

After greeting Lao Zhu, the furious old doctor gave him a memorial: "Read it for yourself!"

After taking the memorial and reading it, Su Ran's face slowly darkened.

The chief envoy of Shaanxi Province made an urgent report.

Due to successive years of drought in Hanzhong, the 170,000 savages hiding in Micang Mountain have fled out of the mountains in search of food, which may lead to riots.

Please ask the court to deal with it urgently.

At this time, the Chief Secretary of Guangdong reported that there were hundreds of thousands of overseas Southern Song Dynasty survivors in Nanyang who could not bear the harassment of pirates and wanted to join Tianming.

Su Ran is very clear about these barbarians and refugees.

The oppression of the Mongols and Yuan Dynasties in the previous dynasty was so severe that there are still refugees hiding in the mountains and forests who refuse to come out.

According to a rough estimate, there must be at least several million people.

Now there are so many people coming all at once.

In a normal year, everyone would naturally be happy.

But now is not the time, now we are catching up with the imperial court's Northern Expedition!

Isn't this obviously going to cause chaos to the court?

Could it be that we want the imperial court to make this Northern Expedition end in a tailspin and end halfway?

No wonder Lao Zhu was furious.

Su Ran thought carefully for a moment, shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry.

I have made a preliminary plan. "

"oh!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard that there was a solution, he was immediately happy.

He asked repeatedly: "What is the preparation plan? Let me tell you!"

Su Ran said calmly: "At the beginning of the war [except for hoarding grain in Tongzhou.

It also allowed the emperors and merchants from various places such as Hui, Yan, Jin, and Lu to prepare for grain harvesting.

Anyway, after the Northern Expedition, food will be needed to appease the northern border.

If the situation of the refugees in Micangshan is urgent,

I think we can first allocate military rations from the border army to deal with it.

His ministers will arrange for imperial merchants to purchase grain and deliver it to the border troops. "

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that Su Ran was preparing to appease the grassland later.

After all, fighting is easy, but comforting is difficult.

In the early days, no amount of food was enough to appease the hundreds of thousands of prisoners.

It is natural to be prepared in this way.

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, took a few steps and said, "Is this possible?

The war in Tiande is going on, maybe it's a tight time!

Will using military rations at this time affect military morale?"

When Zhu Yuanzhang mentioned this, veins popped up on his forehead, and his eyes gleamed fiercely.

To put it bluntly, this Northern Expedition is related to the fate of the country, and it is even more related to the peak of my imperial career!

If he fails so abruptly, the blow to him can be imagined.

This group of Jiangnan gentry is vicious and vicious.

If you don't do it well, not only will you not be able to climb to the peak of the King of God.

Maybe it will remain infamy for thousands of years.

Zhu Biao also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Su Ran had been prepared for a long time.

But his face was still heavy.

Now suddenly such a problem arises.

Let the last bit of incense he had for the Jiangnan gentry disappear.

All that remains is a naked struggle to the death.

Su Ran couldn't help but sigh secretly in her heart.

It has to be said that the timing of these Jiangnan chaebol workers reaching out was very vicious.

One move hit Zhu Yuanzhang's Achilles' heel.

And it is done in a way that is watertight, slippery, and completely plotted.

Even if Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to find the mastermind behind the scenes, there was nothing he could do.

You have to deal with the situation in front of you first!

"His Majesty."

After listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's explanation, Su Ran said calmly: "The budget I made at the beginning was

The Northern Expedition army hoarded military rations on a yearly basis.

Now Tongzhou and Datong have stocked up more than 80% of their grain supplies!

As long as 30% of the grain is intercepted, the refugees in Micangshan can be resettled.

The remaining grain can support the army for three months and is not enough to affect the morale of the army.

During this time gap,

It was enough for the imperial merchant transportation to make up for the shortfall in military rations. "

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were startled when they heard this.

This is the first time that the two of them have heard of the term "time gap".

"Su Ran, can you elaborate?"

Zhu Biao couldn't help but said.

Although he has always admired Su Ran's resourcefulness.

But I don’t quite understand the arithmetic aspect.

Confucianism has been persistently managing it for thousands of years.

Although arithmetic is not considered a complete failure of martial arts, it has always been listed as an obstacle to agricultural studies that is not taken seriously.

This leads to many plans and strategies that are not precise enough.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biaoye suffered a loss in this regard.

Looking at the somewhat confused father and son, Su Ran sighed inwardly.

We can only give the two of them a free raid on illiteracy.

He took out a piece of white paper and a quill pen.

The general's army consumes military rations every day, the refugees consume rations, and the merchants' planning and transportation capabilities are combined to calculate a specific number.

Then some addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

Seeing the results, Mr. Zhu and his wife suddenly felt enlightened.

He is truly a master of arithmetic.

Calculate time so accurately!

It turns out that the Northern Expedition is the most urgent matter now, and the refugees in Micangshan are also imminent.

But Su Ran took advantage of the hoarding of food and transportation capabilities.

…please give me flowers…………

A time gap was calculated out of it abruptly.

With this gap, there is a lot to do.

Just use this time gap.

Relying on the financing and transportation capabilities of the imperial merchants.

We can directly make up for the shortfall in military rations and still not delay the Northern Expedition!

Easily, this catastrophic disaster that caused great harm to the world and the people was eliminated invisible.

If it were the same as before.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biaoye were furious and went into battle shirtless.

Even to the extreme, they directly sent gold medals to withdraw the Northern Expeditionary Army.

But now he was accurately calculated by Su Ran.

It turns out that there is plenty of time to mediate during this time period!

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao turned from anger to joy at the same time.

For the first time, I realized that arithmetic can be so useful!

"Boss, it seems that our secretary needs to find some math masters in the prison."

Zhu Yuanzhang ordered with a spring breeze on his face.

"My son, I accept the order." Zhu Biao also agreed with satisfaction.

In his view, not only should the secretary superintendent arrange arithmetic masters, but he also had to arrange several people who were proficient in arithmetic around him.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao's overjoyed expressions, Su Ran smiled bitterly in her heart.

This little grain calculation is nothing to worry about.

You have never seen a financial master in the previous life who swiped twelve credit cards in a row.

A master of making money to buy a house.

"Okay! Let's order the border troops to allocate food secretly."

Zhu Yuanzhang signaled Zhu Biao to draft an edict: "Go immediately and arrange for the imperial merchants from various places to prepare for the transportation of grain!

A two-pronged approach!

It's his grandma's business. At critical moments, these royal merchants are the most reliable!

0

These bloody civil servants!"

Zhu Yuanzhang cursed through gritted teeth.

Zhu Biao, who drafted the edict, couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart when he heard his father swearing.

After receiving the edict, Su Ran said: "I am still worried about one thing."

"Say." Zhu Yuanzhang asked with his heart at ease.

"Hanzhong, the Qinling Mountains and the Micang Mountains hide wild people, with no less than 500,000 refugees."

Su Ran said: “In the past, the government’s efforts to persuade refugees to come down the mountain were not very effective.

This time, so many appeared at once,

The ability to confuse people's minds can be imagined. "

Zhu Yuanzhang's old face was so gloomy that he could almost squeeze out water.

As a hero who fights his way out of the wilderness.

He nodded slightly and said: "We know... you go back to arrange this matter first.

When it comes to picking up the refugees from Namicang Mountain, you should arrange the manpower to take them in.

Let’s deal with the immediate situation first. In short, we want to decide the outcome in one battle and we must not affect the Northern Expedition!”

A strong murderous aura gushed out from the gaps between Zhu Yuanzhang's teeth!

Su Ran was not worried about the task assigned unexpectedly by Lao Zhu.

Since he established the academy, he has been constantly pioneering.

In addition, he has relatively high requirements for the professionalization of craftsmen.

His men not only built a professional farm development team.

A more specialized workforce of construction craftsmen was also developed.

The farms developed in various places alone are enough to absorb these sudden refugees.

It's perfect for teaching these homeless people how to use various new tools.

At the foot of Micang Mountain, outside the newly opened train station.

Black masses of refugees are everywhere.

Six war horses pulled the train, speeding from a distance like a giant dragon.

The refugees all over the mountains and plains were suddenly frightened and dumbfounded.

They all hid in the mountains as refugees because of the cruelty and cruelty of the previous Mongolian and Yuan dynasties.

After Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, due to the many wastes waiting to be revitalized, some of them fled into the mountains.

I have long been a stranger to the outside world.

Never seen such a scene!

There are also some timid and ignorant refugees who even lie on the ground and mutter!

But among the crowd, there were still a few sinister glances directed at the train.

After the train stopped, the officers and soldiers inside stepped out one after another.

A huge army cauldron was placed on the table.

The second train came over, and the white grain was poured into the pot and started to cook.

Only then did the refugees rush over timidly.

Each took their own bowls and chopsticks to eat their porridge and rice.

A tall and thin man received porridge and rice and came to a fat man.

He whispered: "Zhang Wu, can we find an opportunity to burn these tracks?"

"No chance, Su Ran, this bastard, does everything right."

Zhang Wu ate his porridge and rice and said in a low voice: "When the imperial court built the track, it told the villages along the way,

If anyone is caught destroying the track, he will be given one hundred taels of silver as long as he can be caught alive!

In addition, as long as each village is responsible for the road section, it will be fine.

You can get fifty taels at the end of the year! These country bumpkins have to send Minzhuang to patrol every day.

Besides, these rails are also made of special materials.

Swords and axes are hard to injure, and even fire is hard to ignite. ".
