Lord Moyu was forced to open

Chapter 446 Solution?Unethical way!
"The soul of the nation?"

Zhao Duan chewed these four words carefully, the more he thought about it, the brighter his eyes became, but when he thought of Da Song's current situation, his eyes gradually dimmed.

The idea is good, but it is unrealistic given the current situation in Song Dynasty.

The population of the entire Great Song Dynasty is nearly tens of millions. Although the territory is vast, the Great Song Dynasty has been in power for a hundred years, not to mention the thousand-year-old family. The land in the Song Dynasty was occupied seven to eighty-eight.

If it weren't for the royal family having their own exclusive Huangzhuang, maybe even he, the Great Song Emperor, would not have land.

If there is no land, how can the common people know the etiquette when they have enough to eat, and how can they know the honor and disgrace if they have enough food and clothing?

This is an endless cycle. If the problem of land annexation is not resolved, the people will never be able to condense the soul of the nation.

Unless there is some special opportunity, but that is only possible by miracles.

Thinking of this, Zhao Duan silently picked up the teacup in front of him and drank it down in one gulp, as if he wanted to use this tea to extinguish the anger rising in his heart.

It seemed that he could see the difficulty of the old man, but Zhao Jun pretended not to know and still ate his snacks and drank tea on his own.

Zhao Duan bowed his head in silence for a long time, secretly raised his eyes to look at Zhao Jun opposite, but saw that he was still heartless and suddenly became out of breath.

I have already set off the atmosphere here, doesn't this brat understand what I mean?

Wouldn't it be enough to take the initiative to tell me your solution?Is it possible to really ask in person?
Zhao Jun naturally understood what his father meant, but he made the people of Yunzhou County full by laying down a large tract of land with his own poison. Of course, he couldn't tell his father about this. He regarded it as his own private land, and he didn't want to be eaten by his father.

However, he was calm, but Zhao Duan was not calm. After a stalemate for about half an hour, Zhao Duan finally couldn't help coughing twice.

"Cough cough!"

Immediately after coughing, he raised his head to see Zhao Jun's expression, seeing that he was still unmoved, he coughed harder.

"Cough cough!"

Zhao Jun remained calm.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

"Old man, if your throat is uncomfortable, I'll ask Wang Huai'en to buy you some ice sugar pear water to drink, it will moisten your throat!
If not, Yunzhoujue also has Chuanbei Pipa Gao, which is also comfortable for the throat.

Wang companion! "

After speaking, Zhao Jun called Wang Huai'en.

"My lord!"

Wang Huai'en hurried over at a trot.

Before Zhao Jun could speak, Zhao Duan couldn't bear it anymore, and immediately said:

"Then what, my voice is fine, so I don't need those two things."

Then he said: "Don't play dumb for me, I can't do it, you don't understand what I mean!"

Regarding this, Zhao Jun still had an innocent face and said: "Father, I really don't understand what you mean?!"

Anyway, it's the main one, and I'll pretend to be confused if you don't open your mouth.

Zhao Duan was really annoyed by this move, he gave him a hard look, and then he could only say: "Where are you pretending to be garlic! Come on, is there any solution in the pass?
Since you brought this up, then you must have a solution. You, Yunzhou County, are all united. Don't tell me that you can't do it! "

The old man directly pierced the window paper, Zhao Jun couldn't continue to pretend to be stupid, so he sighed, and helplessly raised two fingers and said: "It's like taxation, if you want the people in the pass to gather the soul of the nation, then You have to feed them first.

But if you want them to be full, you must first have food.

This food is available in the pass, but it is not in the hands of the people.

With the current state of the country, and with your father's character, it is definitely impossible for you to get food from those who have food.

At present, there are only two ways, one is to increase productivity, and the other is to increase production sources! "

"What does it mean to increase productivity? What does it mean to increase production sources?"

Zhao Duan asked.

Zhao Jun explained: "Increasing productivity is to find ways to make one mu of land produce more grain, as long as the grain yield is more, then no matter how small the land is, the people will be able to eat enough.

The more productivity increases, the more people can eat.

From the slash-and-burn farming in ancient times, but now the people's careful management of the fields is a way to increase productivity.

Of course, this can only be achieved in conjunction with curbing the annexation of land within the pass. Otherwise, no matter how much an acre of land increases, the common people’s land will be taken away. Even if there is not even an acre of land, the increase will be meaningless. "

Zhao Duan frowned. It's okay to say that this method increases productivity. He has heard that some people have superb farming skills. As long as they can grow two layers of food more than others, find these people and spread their methods. do it.

However, curbing land annexation caused him a great headache. In the current Song Dynasty, the royal family's power extends to the county, and in the township, the clan or the local wealthy family has the final say.

This is the situation that the imperial power does not go to the countryside. There are so many places in the country that I can't control at all, and it is difficult to prevent this situation from continuing to happen.

So after careful consideration, he could only ask: "What about the second method? What is increasing the source of production?"

Zhao Jun knew that the old man would definitely not be able to solve the first problem that needed to be faced. This is a problem that has not been solved in all dynasties.How could the old man solve it?

If he can solve it, he won't let Da Song become like this now.

So without hesitation, he directly stated his second method:

"The so-called increase in production sources is to obtain more land!
Now that the land in the pass is not enough for the needs of the people, the people will expand outwards to obtain more arable land, so that the people can get their own land, so that the situation of domestic land mergers can be alleviated. If Da Song can lay down a piece of land that is the same size as Da Song's today, then Da Song's land annexation will be postponed for another hundred years!

And the people who got the new land can support themselves, coupled with the vastness of the country, it will naturally allow the people to increase their sense of identity with the Song Dynasty, thus condensing the soul of the nation. "

"Aren't you just talking nonsense?"

After hearing Zhao Jun's second method, Zhao Duan suddenly became angry.

Doesn't he know the current situation of Song Dynasty, as long as the territory can be opened up, it will naturally be relieved.

But where to open up?
Where is it worth developing for Song Dynasty?

grassland?

No!There is no way to grow food in that place!

over the sea?

In Guangbo along the coast, who knows where there is land on the sea, it is simply unknown, so it is removed.

Then there is only Pyu Kingdom in Caiyun County, but that place is full of trees and miasma, how can they survive?
It can be said that in his opinion, there is no expandable land around Da Song!
The current national strength of Song Dynasty does not support tentative and unrewarded behavior.

The treasury can't afford to be hurt!
For Zhao Duan's performance, Zhao Jun had expected it.

Shrugging his shoulders, he said, "Where is the nonsense?"

Zhao Duan said directly: "Then tell me, where can my Great Song expand?"

Zhao Jun smiled and said to Wang Huai'en: "Wang Banban, go and get the second version of the world map!"

"Good lord!"

Wang Huai'en responded and quickly left the box.

Zhao Duan was a little puzzled, but Zhao Jun just told him to be calm. Seeing Zhao Jun's confident look, Zhao Duan believed him, and waited quietly together.

After waiting for about two quarters of an hour, Zhao Duan and the others had finished their second cup of tea, when Wang Huai'en finally ran in holding a huge scroll.

After entering, he bowed to the two of them, and then quickly hung the map of the universe on the wall of the box under Zhao Jun's instructions.

After the map was unfolded, Zhao Jun stood up, walked to the map and pointed to the Fat Country Road next to Caiyun County:
"Does the emperor know about this country?"

Zhao Duan cast a glance and said in a bad mood:
"Naturally, we know that the location of Fat Kingdom is the Annan Protectorate in the former Tang Dynasty.

After the collapse of the Tang Dynasty, Duan De, the Jiedu envoy, announced that he would establish himself as an emperor with the name of Dali.

However, in less than fifty years, the Chuan Kingdom was wiped out by the sudden rise of the Huns, and later the Huns supported a puppet regime, the puppet Nguyen Dynasty.

Finally, when the Great Song Dynasty was in a stalemate with the Xiongnu, especially when the second emperor's uncle chased the Xiongnu to the north more than 20 years ago, Shu Nantuo, the general of the puppet Nguyen Dynasty, entered the palace of the Puppet Nguyen Dynasty and declared himself emperor. Independence and escape from the control of the Huns, and established the country as Pyu. "

Looking at his old man talking eloquently, looking at himself as if looking at an illiterate, as if saying, you don't even know this, Zhao Jun gave a helpless wry smile, and said after he finished speaking:
"Father, you are right.

But what I want to say is that Pyu is not the point! "

"Clam?"

Zhao Duan was a little taken aback, aren't you just asking Pyu?
Why is he not the point?

Zhao Jun pointed to the back of Piaoguo with his finger, which was marked with two big big characters in red pen and said:

"That's the point!

Although Pyu is full of high mountains and dense forests, it is not worth attacking by the court.

But this show is a good place.

According to Erchen's informant, this is a large plain, and all of it is arable land. The people of the entire Zhuoluo Kingdom will not have to worry about food for the next year as long as they sprinkle seeds on the ground. There are two crops a year, but the other parts can reach three crops a year. The grain output is quite high. It is a rare treasure! "

Suddenly, Zhao Duan, who was still sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai just now, stood up abruptly, walked quickly to the wall and stared fixedly at the place where the two of them were written, and remained silent for a long time.

After a long time, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Zhao Jun steadily. Zhao Jun even seemed to feel that he was shining from his eyes.

"How big is this show!"

Zhao Jun knew that he was moved, but he didn't let it go and said, "It's as big as Shuzhong County!"

"what?!"

Zhao Duan was shocked, pointing to the plot on the map and said: "But his long strip seems to be much smaller than Shuzhong County on your map?"

Zhao Jun spread his hands and said:

"The size of the map, in order to draw the others, so I can only draw it smaller, but the actual area is not smaller than that of Shuzhong County, and because of the terrain of Shuzhong County, the arable area is less Zhuoluo is much bigger than Shuzhong.

If the imperial court can take down Zhuluo, it will be a new land of abundance with more arable land and more grain than Shuzhong County! "

Zhao Duan is thinking, thinking desperately, a place that is not smaller than Shuzhong County, but bigger, and the grain is harvested twice a year, and some places are treasured lands that are harvested three times a year. He is really something. !
However, looking at the Pyu country between Caiyun County and Zhuo Luo, Zhao Duan had a headache again!

Although it is good to play Luo, there is still a Pyu country between Song and Da Song!

This place is full of dense forests, all kinds of snakes, insects, rats and ants, and the miasma in the dense forests are all obstacles to Da Song's access to the treasure land!
"Father is tempted?"

Zhao Jun asked with a smile.

Zhao Duan gave him a white look, and said angrily:

"So what if you are tempted, there is a Pyu country in the middle, if the imperial court wants to take this place, at least they must be prepared to attack two countries.

The border defense pressure in the Song Dynasty was already high, and the court's finances were also tight.

Hitting two countries at once is too risky.

The geographical environment of the Pyu Kingdom is also so bad, if the imperial army wants to attack, it needs too many things.

If it is blocked for too long, I am afraid that the Great Song Dynasty will collapse without attacking.

What if I am tempted again? "

Zhao Jun turned his head to look at the map on the wall, nodded and said, "Indeed, it's really too difficult to go to Pyu from land."

Zhao Duan originally wanted to say that what you said was not nonsense?

But suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he quickly turned his head to look at the large stretch of coastline in Caiyun County on the map!
Zhao Jun smiled.

Zhao Duan quickly turned his head to look at him and asked, "Do you want the imperial court to attack from the sea?"

"No no no!"

Zhao Jun shook his head.

Zhao Duan was stunned, so what do you think?
Zhao Jun asked with a smile: "Old man, tell yourself, with the current ability of the imperial court, can the Great Song Dynasty be able to mobilize an army to attack a country from the sea?"

Zhao Duan thought about it seriously and suddenly shook his head dejectedly.

Attacking from the sea is not as simple as talking about it. It is difficult to buy or build a large ship that can transport a large number of soldiers and logistics supplies.

What's more, the imperial court is still in a fiscal deficit and can't afford the money at all.

"Then what do you mean?"

Zhao Duan didn't believe that he would have nothing to say when he raised this question that he knew the answer to.

Sure enough, Zhao Jun suddenly laughed and said: "Old man, now I have a method that can not only make the court have a large amount of income, but also weaken the Pyu and Zhuo Luo countries. I wonder if you would like to do it?"

Zhao Duan was taken aback for a moment, but then hurriedly asked: "What way?"

Zhao Jundao: "I have received news that the Piao Kingdom is also eyeing a large area of ​​Zhuluo's land and is fighting with Zhuluo, but Zhuluo has already fallen into a disadvantage.

I think this way, although the imperial court does not have the ability to send troops to attack Zhuoluo, but there is always the ability to support it, right?
Although the Luo Kingdom is small, it has many good things.

The imperial court can sell some unnecessary broken equipment to Zhuo Luo, but bronze weapons are still used there.

Even if the tattered weapons of the imperial court are good things, we will let Zhuo Luo exchange them for gold, silver and grain!

In this way, we have improved the strength of Zhuoluo, which can not only make Zhuoluo and Piaoguo fight harder and consume the strength of both sides, but also take the opportunity to deal with some junk in stock in exchange for money and food to make up for domestic finances.

It can be said that it is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone. The only problem is that this approach is a bit immoral.

I don't know, old man, are you embarrassed to do it? "

Zhao Jun is like a demon that tempts people to fall, with a strange smile on his face, looking at his father with a smile, waiting for his answer.
