The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

King Qin's motorcade quickly came to the Qin Jun Tianjun base in the north. The soldiers of the Celestial Army are doing their best to maintain their flight field. Because the heavy rain drove potholes on the runway they had leveled.

The runway did not use asphalt on a large scale like later generations. The reason is that the funds of the heavenly army are insufficient. All their funds are used to design and build new airships. Especially the latest hydrogen airship. The hydrogen comes from the reaction of dilute sulfuric acid with iron. Although the reaction was slow, a gas that could explode was accidentally collected. When exploring this gas, chemists discovered that this gas is very light. After consulting the chemistry manual, this is hydrogen. As a result, the Heavenly Army, which has invested the most in scientific research, has priority in obtaining the right to use hydrogen. Secondly, they transferred the technology to a glass manufacturing plant, because there is a contract between the two, and the glass manufacturing plant should give priority to Tianjun glass tubes for the manufacture of barometers. Also called altimeter. So the glass factory separated a department for the research of the Celestial Army.

After King Qin got out of the car, he immediately went to check the barometer that could predict changes in the weather.

Captain Ma Zhendong excitedly gave a series of introductions to King Qin. King Qin also took a keen interest in this barometer that can predict weather conditions. such as. He heard that if this thing did not rise by one block, it would represent that the airship had risen about ten steps, so he had to check it out himself. In desperation, the heavenly army could only drag out an airship to give King Qin a demonstration. This is not the first time King Qin has taken an airship. But the officers of the Celestial Army were still very nervous.

After careful inspection, the flight captain, Xu Lei personally piloted the airship and prepared a set of safety measures for King Qin. Take off to check the usage of the altimeter.

King Qin appeared to be very prioritized. However, Shangwen was very busy, because this rainstorm came at a very untimely time, and it was undoubtedly agriculture that was most affected by this rainstorm. Qin's agriculture has just entered the age of farmers. The farmer also borrowed a large number of loans from the bank. Agriculture is often the worst affected by severe weather. From the moment he saw the newspaper, Shangwen could only watch the weather raining heavily. Because the forecast time is too short. Moreover, when the rainstorm is coming, no effective measures can be made. Coupled with poor communication at this time. There is no time to prepare.

Since it is impossible to make preparations, then only remedial measures can be taken. Shangwen and Meng Yi began to discuss some countermeasures. At the same time, people were sent to the fields to actually investigate the disaster situation.

Qin's agricultural planting structure has undergone major changes. Wheat has surpassed corn and has become the largest crop. This is mainly due to the impact of futures. Wheat has been in a high price band for a long time, which has stimulated the production of wheat. Moreover, the staple food of wheat milled into flour has begun to enter thousands of households. This is also the reason why wheat can quickly overwhelm corn and become the number one within a year.

Qin's wheat is spring wheat. Instead of winter wheat. Because, in winter, wheat is spreading, and it will be planted quickly when spring begins. There are also some minor situations when planting seeds. water. Spring wheat needs a lot of water. Fortunately, because a large amount of land was concentrated in the hands of a few people, plus the role of Zheng Guoqu in the Qin State Pass, nothing major happened, but it gave a warning. That is, there must be a sum of money to build some small-scale agricultural water conservancy facilities to lay a solid foundation for Qin's agricultural production. This is also an inevitable requirement for large-scale agricultural production.

It is still unknown how much agriculture has suffered, but a sum of money must be set aside to make up for this loss. The core of Qin's legal system is to severely punish tired people. This is almost consistent with the nature of a large number of subsequent encouragement of the people's spontaneous participation.

The government cannot directly allocate funds for disaster relief. This will lead to a large number of tired people. At the same time of relief, it will also make many people think of getting something for nothing. This is not the original intention of relief. Shangwen decided to solve the agricultural problem through coordination, government guarantees, and a large number of corresponding measures to follow up.

The specific measures include the government to provide a second guarantee for the loan from the farmer, allowing the bank to extend some time limit appropriately. At the same time, the government provided interest-free loans to those farmers who were severely affected by the establishment of an agricultural fund.

The government encourages some companies to participate in agricultural construction in the form of capital contributions and joint stocks with farmers, or in the form of tax exemptions. Mainly in water conservancy. The other is the establishment of specialized agricultural research institutions. The main thing is to study chemical fertilizers and pesticides. And greenhouse cultivation technology. For the more modern drip irrigation technology. Shangwen allocates funds in the form of government funding.

Preliminary statistics. This sum of money is around 200,000 yuan. The money is always not enough to spend, and the military expenditure is just this amount for an ultra-large-scale exercise. Shangwen decided to suspend the exercises for the staff and the mansion. Let the troops enter a state of rest. Then solve the exercise problem through diplomatic channels. Qin State couldn't consume it anymore. The government is short of money.

While Shangwen was discussing countermeasures, King Qin's order came. After receiving the order, Shangwen believed that it was time to ask King Qin to further reduce military expenditures on a large scale. This is done from scratch. Internal economic construction.

When Shang Wen arrived at the base, King Qin just got off the airship happily. Shangwen was stopped by King Qin before he could bow.

"Mr. Qin is here. The widow is very happy. This barometer. It's really a good thing. It can measure altitude and the weather. Good. Wow has decided. It is necessary to establish a weather station like the heavenly army in the whole country. Provide accurate weather information for the State of Qin." King Qin said happily.

"My lord, although this barometer is good, it is a bit difficult to build. And it costs a lot of money. Now military expenditures take up a large proportion. I might not be able to maintain it." Shang Wen directly expressed his opinion.

"What does this have to do with military spending?" King Qin asked strangely.

"My lord, military expenditure now accounts for more than 60 to 70% of government expenditure. In addition to this military exercise, the cost has soared all the way, and it has been close to 80%. The proportion of the cost is too large. The minister has already cut it once, but The results were not great. Only some orders were canceled. Just after pressing a part of it, they immediately rebounded. Military expenditures were too large. As a result, many things were difficult to carry out. For example, this weather station. If it is not needed by the heavenly army, I am afraid, this weather station. It will be abolished." Shang Wen said.

"Oh. But isn't this weather station out of military expenditure?" King Qin asked.

"Yes, but military expenditures are mainly used for wars, military exercises, and construction expenditures are too small." Shang Wen said.

"En." King Qin frowned and gave a gratitude.
