Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

Of course, Chen Xi also knows the disadvantages of playing this way, so money and grain have always been mixed. This is also the reason why the central bank needs to integrate the local banks, and then the banks integrate the local industries.

After all, this way of distributing materials may lead to very funny situations. In history, there is not a period in which materials were converted because of insufficient money.

Take Daming as an example, during the Wanli period, because the treasury was short of money, there was no money, and there was no way to send money to the bureaucrats, so Zhang Juzheng waved his hand. Although there is no money, our Daming has enough supplies, and we send supplies to cover the salary Bar.

First of all, Zhang Juzheng's level of internal affairs can be counted in a feudal society. The Wanli New Deal can be said to be handled by Zhang Juzheng.

However, the problem was that Zhang Juzheng made a mistake in the operation, and the method of offsetting the account was too rough. He directly used sumacu pepper to offset the account. If you say that the value of this thing is quite high, it is no problem to offset the account.

The problem is that everyone is waiting for the rice to go into the pot. If you send me a stick, will you let me eat this stick as a meal? For a big family, this stick is not worth eating.

What this gameplay requires is a sufficient reserve of materials, at least the materials needed just now are complete, and other items are in short supply, and the people are at most dissatisfied, and there will be no chaos.

If all the supplies are complete, then it doesn't matter, you are not sending supplies, but more directly asking the other party to receive supplies and money.

Chen Xi is like this. The materials in his hands are always more complete than those on the market. This is the advantage brought by the industrial system of a big government as a backup supply, so Chen Xi always looks like you when he pays the soldiers' families. If you want money, you can take it, if you don’t want money, you can choose supplies. As a member of the military, you have these, these, and these discounts.

Therefore, there are not many times when the money is actually distributed. Most of the people choose supplies. Anyway, they are just needed items, food and clothing, and the quality is cheap here.

To be honest, if you really want to give money, it’s not that you can’t give it, but that will actually reveal a lot of things, for example, the military expenditure of the Han Dynasty is extremely large, so Chen Xi operates in a way that balances the accounts as much as possible to ensure that the military expenditure seems to be maintained. Below 10 billion dollars.

As for the more than 40 billion yuan in an accident, it was the result of other reasons that can be said in the past. Normally, the military expenditure still needs to be at a relatively appropriate scale. For example, 9.9 billion is not bad. up.

Although Chen Xi knows very well that the military expenditure of the Han Dynasty in any year, as long as it is really counted as money, it may have exceeded 50 billion, 400,000 to 500,000 for the main battle army, millions of militiamen, other armor and equipment, food and drink, etc. Not counting, the annual salary has exceeded 30 billion.

If you add the cost of meals, calculated according to the world price, each person is calculated according to 10 Wen per day, and it goes down to billions, and then counts the loss of military equipment, pensions, and 40 billion yuan is not an accidental thing, but Most of Chen Xi's account balance is done, so he can still get through.

Up to now, Chen Xi can still say with a straight face that the military expenditure is about 10 billion. As for the loss of materials, this is not considered a loss. Renewable resources can stimulate domestic demand and create happiness. People can also make money in manufacturing. It can be regarded as non-existent.

Anyway, Chen Xi just pretended that these things didn’t exist. Even though all the families that have raised two legions now feel that the military expenditure of more than 10 billion is too unscientific, they really can’t find any problem, so what Chen Xi said is what.

"The food and salaries are sent directly to the common people, and after the common people sign for it, local students are asked to write letters on their behalf to stabilize people's hearts." Li You said with some admiration.

I am very impressed by Chen Xi's method of directly sending food and salaries to the soldiers' homes. This method has solved many problems, and writing letters back and forth has also made the soldiers in front feel more at ease. It doesn't make sense.

After all, most of the soldiers are not the killers under Li Jue. They don’t have wives and children. They are single, and the whole family is not hungry. Sending money home is much more at ease for these people than carrying it with them. Too many, so the matter is considered good government.

"Tsk, I just want to facilitate management." Chen Xi said casually, and distributed them to the soldiers. The soldiers died in battle. If they can't find where are their homes? Was it directly wiped out? This kind of thing is not uncommon, and it can be sent directly to the home. Even if this person is gone, he can finally give a notice when the money is sent, and help take care of the funeral along the money distribution channel.

These things don't cost much, but they are indeed genuine humanitarian care. In many cases, the indifference of human nature lies in such details.

"Chen Hou, the Guo family sent someone to send a quick report." While Chen Xi was chatting, Yuan Yin brought Haftan to the Political Yuan side.

Speaking of which, the main hall of the Political Yuan was not originally arranged in this way. The ministers of each ministry also have their own places to deal with work, and each minister has his own territory. These people should have gathered every three days, every five days. However, it was changed after Chen Xi entered the Political Yuan.

Chen Xi arrested all these people here, and each ministry handles them in their respective territories, and the ministers at the top are all in the Political Yuan. When they are together, some things are easier to deal with, and it is less likely to cause grievances.

To be honest, if Lu Su and Li You hadn't been in the Political Yuan every day, looking up and seeing each other, the transfer of Jiang Wan, Wang Xiu, and Zhao Yan would have been enough to create a rift between the two.

After all, there are only so many people who can work. If you transfer me away, what should I do?

So after Chen Xi came into power, the ministers of various ministries assigned all their work to the Political Council. If you have any ideas, you can talk about them. If you want to scold, you can just speak up here. Public affairs are public affairs, and private affairs are private affairs. What’s wrong? Knock on the table directly, don't play tricks on the bottom.

Chen Xi has always believed that they are invincible when united. As long as they don't hinder each other, they can give it a go, no matter what team it is. But at their level, many rifts are actually due to insufficient communication.

As for interests, this group of people has already surpassed the shackles of interests at this level. Maybe their relatives and friends need these things, but they themselves don’t care too much. If they give up, they will give up. Now, this is more exciting than a wealthy party. If it can become a notch that civilization cannot bypass, then what else is it?

Compared to a hundred years later, a handful of loess disappeared in the memory of other people. To this extent, it is another kind of longevity for these people to seek.

Therefore, Chen Xi took this group of people to work together, no matter what the fight was like below, this group of people sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, maybe you won the fight on the opposite side, and after a transfer, you went to the opposite side.

This method has continued to this day, and it seems that the effect is quite good. At least there is a person like him pressing on it, and nothing has happened so far.

"This seems to be..." Chen Xi looked at Haftan, looking familiar, but he couldn't get the name. Luckily, Liu Ye quickly sent a voice transmission to Chen Xi, "General Haftan, what, is there something wrong with Guo's side? God Does the change have a big impact on your side?"

Haftan was a little flattered. He didn't expect Chen Xi to know him, so he quickly replied, "Everything is fine in my Anping Guo family. The change of the sky did cause part of the legion to fall, but the main force under my command, under the oath of catastrophe, remains the same. Maintain the level of the Praetorian Guard."

Chen Xi's eyes lit up slightly. He didn't expect Haftan to still maintain the level of the Imperial Guard. Should it be said that he is indeed the famous general who founded Sasanian Persia in the official history? Still kind of level.

Originally, Chen Xi thought that all the imperial guards of the Central Asian families should have collapsed, because this wave of changes has dealt a heavy blow to opportunists, and the dual talents and imperial guards retained by the major families had indeed reached that level in the past. , but essentially just opportunistic.

Chen Xi reckoned that most of the families might have collapsed to single-talent, and very few could maintain double-talent. After all, even if the major families had private soldiers, limited by the deterrence of the Han Dynasty, it was impossible for them to be too large. There are usually hundreds of people, and the training intensity is also average.

In the past few years, they could quickly become double talents, and even reach the Imperial Guard, because they had the template of the past and could be promoted quickly. However, after the sky changed, this kind of opportunistic behavior counted one by one, and all of them were hammered. , fell to the dead, Chen Xi didn't think it was strange.

The real double talent and the imperial guards are not so easy to achieve. I don’t want Anping Guo to still retain the rank of the imperial guards after the sky changes. The restraint effect, but one thing to say, in the current situation, those who can still be maintained in the Imperial Guard are very powerful.

Maybe from the moment the sky changed, the Guo family in Anping became the tyrant in Central Asia. These days, the main force has fallen into a single talent, and the imperial guards can really go away.

"That's right, that's right. We still have the level of the imperial guards. If there is a lack of supplies, then the reserve supplies on the west side can be released to you Anping Guo." Chen Xi decided to increase investment. Aberdeen, Anping Guo seems to be in his prime.

"Well, there are only seven or eight hundred imperial guards left after we collapsed." Haftan said with a dry smile. They all firmly believe that Guo Zhao is the Lord of Destiny, even if he has the talent for vows, it is impossible to maintain the level of the imperial guards.

"That's pretty good too." Chen Xi said with great satisfaction.

"Chen Hou, this is the image that Shaojun asked me to pass over, please take a look." Haftan saw that Chen Xi was in a good mood, and quickly took out the secret magic mirror.
