Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

Chen Xi hates moral issues, because once the issue extends to morality, it means that he has basically lost the ability to solve problems.

Because moral problems can only be solved by morality, and once morality is corrupted, it will really be like a dike of thousands of miles collapsing in an ant's nest, and it will be done directly.

On the contrary, the purchase fee of 300 billion yuan per year is not a big problem. As long as the harvested grain can be digested by the processing industry, it will only produce more and make profits.

In this process, it is enough to offset the losses caused by buying grain at a high price and selling grain at a low price. In theory, as long as one's own plate is large enough, it is enough to fill the gap.

The prosperity of industrialization can make up for the loss of agricultural population, so as long as the loss in a certain link can be recovered from the whole, it is acceptable.

The premise is that the country is willing to deny compensation. Of course, the current situation of the Han Dynasty does not have this problem. At present, the Han Dynasty is equivalent to denying compensation in advance from the beginning, and it does not involve the subsequent willingness or not.

It can be said that Liu Bei's proposal actually has only one price inversion problem. This problem has been 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 the low-priced 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 collects grain indefinitely, and then sells it at a low price. To be honest, Chen Xi can't stand this kind of gameplay, even if he directly distributes grain subsidies, it is true to change to this No, because that means unlimited cash out.

Wouldn't it be nice to buy grain for 70 renminbi and then sell it to the government for 150 renminbi?

Liu Bei thought of this very quickly, and couldn't help but turn pale. He also understood what it meant, but he didn't notice it for a while...

"I'm sorry, I added extremely high difficulty to your work." Liu Bei sighed and said, Chen Xi shook his head, this is not a problem, at least for Chen Xi, it is really not a problem, anyway, it has not been implemented.

"Actually, I prefer not to change the price of grain, just sell it like this. There are low-priced grains in the market, and other people can buy them if they want. There are no low-priced grains. The official price of 150 yuan is there." Chen Xi He said calmly, "It doesn't cause any problems, so don't create problems, so just operate like this first."

"It's just that, the food prices in different places are not exactly the same." Liu Bei thought for a while and said, he hopes to be fair, at least in this respect.

"In this huge country, how can prices be the same everywhere, as long as they are generally healthy and stable." Chen Xi said with a bit of a sigh, "At least in my opinion, this level is generally healthy and stable. Perfection is such a thing, in the ideal, it is too time-consuming to want to be completely perfect.”

"Zi Chuan, you have disillusioned me with you." Liu Bei said suddenly.

"I said a long time ago that I can't solve every problem perfectly. I can only say that I can refer to the reality as much as possible and solve it to a more appropriate level." Chen Xi said seriously, "My education is to make me a A person who can keep moving forward, not a god, and as a human being, it is inevitable to compromise with reality.”

Chen Xi does well, not perfect, there is a big difference between the two.

Chen Xi knew from the very beginning that the limit of what he could do was the Han cultural circle, a Han cultural circle that covered half of the civilization of the world, was full of vigor, and had an infinite future. As for going further, Chen Xi knew very well that he didn't have enough time .

Even if it takes painstaking efforts to knock down Rome, what will be erected on the ruins will be a new Rome, not a new Han Dynasty, and it will make the new Rome hate the Han Dynasty abnormally.

It is still too difficult for this era to cross the distance of half the world. Even with the support of a family grown up in Central Asia, Chen Xi also recognizes the limit of this era.

Even if the so-called extreme wall of the empire can be broken, even if it absorbs the foundation of another empire, obtains the bonus of food and logistics, and concentrates the power of the whole country into a fist, the distance of 30,000 miles is enough to become the abyss of heaven. In this case, it is already difficult to win, and it is even more difficult to absorb after winning. It should even be said that it cannot be absorbed at all.

In this era, only two countries have the so-called patriotic education, so Chen Xi tends to cultural erosion, even if the cultural erosion fails, the two peak civilizations with black hair and black eyes are better than golden hair and blue eyes standing on top of the world, so Chen Xi realized his own The strength of the ultimate empire level is enough to resist the pressure caused by Chen Xi.

Maybe I can't resist, maybe I can resist, but as long as we keep a distance, Chen Xi's influence is not unlimited. What you do, help if you can without violating yourself.

"I'm thinking about it." Liu Bei nodded and said, he didn't use Chen Xi as an all-powerful internal affairs wizard at the earliest time. When Chen Xi was 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, to the point where Liu Bei was shocked, and Liu Bei gradually became separated from Chen Xi. cognition.

Although it is not possible to directly say that Chen Xi is omnipotent, in Liu Bei's cognition, internal affairs are equivalent to whether Chen Xi is willing or not, not capable or not.

With the passage of time, this sense continued to deepen. When Yuanfeng changed drastically, Liu Bei could no longer think that Chen Xi was a human being. People should not be so outrageous, at least not so nonsense.

This concept and senses are constantly deepening, until one day Chen Xi suddenly asked Liu Bei if he was human, and said with a smile that it is impossible for human beings to remember so many soldiers. It was not until then 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. Maybe he was very strong, but there was still a gap between the Chen Xi of the past and the current Chen Xi.

To grow, to become stronger, to solve problems, this is a human being, just a stronger human being.

"Although I always hope that you can be as versatile as I think, but it still has to fall into reality." Liu Bei said with a little guilt.

"Wait?" Chen Xi suddenly said, "Mr. Xuande, did you misunderstand?"

This time it was Liu Bei's turn to be stunned, and after thinking about it, he said, "There is no mistake in understanding."

"No, my understanding is absolutely wrong. My answer is that I have considered the appropriate result after comprehensive consideration, rather than a perfect result, because it involves too many aspects and is too time-consuming." Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei and said seriously, it's not impossible. , but not worth it, you can't think that my not worth it means that I can't do it, it's not good.

That's right, Chen Xi can solve this problem, because future generations will have an answer to this question. Although this answer is a dynamic answer, and it is still a bunch of very troublesome solutions, and the policy is gradually promoted and completed slowly, but this is true. is the answer.

More importantly, this thing is essentially in line with the current agricultural taxation, price adjustment, subsidy and other systems, which means that copying can be copied, but the problem is that the return on investment is not worth it, so Chen Xi gave up copying homework. Just take a similar one and put it on top.

"That is to say, it's not worth it." Liu Bei was silent for a while. He has a complicated attitude towards Chen Xi now. You have paid out all the 150 billion, and the latter will 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 ability to resist risks.”

"You have invested 150 billion, do you still care about these things?" Liu Bei looked at Chen Xi with unusual doubts. In his opinion, these things are not what Chen Xi is doing?

"The problem is that I can't solve these problems by investing another 150 billion. These problems will continue to produce new links and new problems with the development of the times. They can't be solved with money. 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 its industrial structure has been gradually completed, the essence of many problems will only fall on the population in the end. Whether it is quality or quantity, the final foothold will only be these two.

"It's not my ability that hinders me from moving forward. I even rely on my ability to advance these things as much as possible. What really hinders me is the overall population size." Chen Xi said with a sigh, "If there is a population of 100 million , I can even do a two-front battle, but I can't."

With a population of 100 million, that means that the full-time population can be further increased. Even if the current full-time rate is maintained, there will still be a population of 7 million. These populations exclude the management population, the share occupied by major families, and the semi-full-time population required by the industry. , Give Sun Qian half of it, and the rest is enough to start a two-sided war.

Only 200,000 troops are needed to defeat Chu State, and 600,000 troops are needed to destroy Chu State. Similarly, 300,000 troops are needed to defeat Guishuang, so it may take 1 million troops to destroy Guishuang, and if it is replaced by Rome, this number may be 1 million. Need 2 million.

It's a pity not, so Chen Xi can only use other methods to get along like this.

The difference between a big country and a small country is too big, just like the Chinese in later generations ridiculed those small countries in Africa, Central and South America. Seeing those small countries being manipulated round after round, many keyboard warriors said that they are really rubbish and don’t understand politics. I don't understand industry, I don't understand military or something...

Actually don't you really understand? In fact, no, I 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, or that they can't solve any problems if they understand it. Less is better to eat, more people are better to work, that's it.

Even if there are more people, there will be a lot of strange species, but more people means more samples, and even the lowest level of probability means the number of card draws.

The card pool can only draw one million times, and it can draw more than one billion times are completely two concepts, especially when the probability is extremely slim, the number of card draws almost represents the future.

Chen Xi wanted to do a lot of things, but the education he received made him clear that no matter how great a plan is, it still needs to be put on the ground in the end. The incitement of words can only bring a momentary enthusiasm, and the practice of ideals can make people move forward bravely.

To put it simply, idealists' ideals are the most precious treasures only when they are realized, and ideals that cannot be realized are just empty declarations after drinking.

"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 make my dream come true as soon as possible." Chen Xi said seriously, but in fact this was a completely unscientific answer.

Liu Bei didn't think it was unscientific, so he nodded, while Chen Xi just smiled, because Liu Bei didn't understand how outrageous it was, so he didn't need to explain it at all.

In fact, local optimality is difficult to achieve global optimality, and global optimality cannot be achieved unless you can observe the future. In Chen Xi's case, he can basically guarantee global optimality, even if he cannot achieve it. The real optimal is at least close to this optimal.

This is completely unscientific and unreasonable. Even supercomputers of later generations cannot do it. In theory, except for observing the future, it is all nonsense.

It's a pity that no one thinks it's unreasonable, even the wise men of this era don't think it's unreasonable, they just think they can't do it, and they don't think it's outrageous to be able to do it.

As for Liu Bei, he couldn't understand this kind of thinking problem even more. Even Zhuge Liang and others didn't think there was a problem. Liu Bei's situation, which is like looking at flowers in a fog, can be seen clearly.

Therefore, Liu Bei expressed sincerely that although he did not understand Chen Xi's idea of ​​solving the problem at all, he bluntly said that he gave high praise out of admiration for Chen Xi, but Chen Xi always felt that this praise was Going for the 150 billion.

"I will draw up a framework and send it back to explain my thinking. Zijing and Kong Ming can do almost the same thing. When I go back, I will go back and do a field survey, and then change it. It's almost the same. Let's hurry up and wait. At the port of the Ganges, we will arrive in Borneo soon." Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei and said calmly.

Liu Bei nodded. He had already arrived at Wenjia, and he could reach the port of the Ganges in three or four days at most, and Zhong Yao had already prepared a large number of boats there. How much time.
