Cao Cao's chef

Chapter 235 I Come, I See Me Change

Wang Yong checked the materials seized this time. There are a lot of cattle and farm equipment, not to mention the population. The real problem is food.

There is not enough food, even if the people are scattered among the counties in Cao Cao's territory, the food will be enough for about two to three months.If you don't think of a way, the food problem will soon appear again, and it will even affect the cost of military rations.

Seriously, Cao Cao even thought about whether he should learn from Zhu Jun or Huangfusong, and directly kill these more than 20 yellow scarf thieves.Yanzhou under her command, and Yuzhou, which has just been expanded, which one is not the place of the Fourth World War?If the military rations can't keep up, it's simply a dead end!

"Tuntian, how do you do it?" Seeing Wang Yong's words, Cao Cao planned to give him a chance.

"First of all, the barren and unowned farmland will be nationalized, and the yellow scarf captives and recruited refugees will be organized into groups according to the army's establishment. The court will provide land, seeds, cattle and agricultural tools, and they will cultivate and cultivate them. The harvest is divided proportionally between the country and the farmers in the field. If it is the front line, it is even possible to form a field army, fighting and farming, combining soldiers and farmers, and this part can be directly selected from the Yellow Turban captives." Wang Yong suggested.

Originally, Cao Cao also started farming this year. The reason was that a large number of Yellow Turbans were captured, and a large amount of grain, farming tools and cattle were seized at the same time.It can be said that in Lao Cao’s family history, the yellow scarves really helped a lot. In the early stage, there was a lack of soldiers, and the Qingzhou yellow scarves came to the door; just when there was a food problem, the Runan yellow scarves came to the door to send food to others!

After thinking for a while, he added: "In order to prevent the Yellow Turbans from surrendering and rebelling, several generals should be arranged to serve in other places. At the same time, during the slack season, the local government can organize these farmers to repair roads, repair water conservancy and Carry out some basic projects. In contrast, the government must provide them with meals and even a certain salary."

"Wuyou knows that since ancient times, the government has imposed corvee, and the people have brought their own food!" Cao Cao looked at Wang Yong.

"This happened in the pre-Qin period, which led to the chaos of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, and even forced Liu Bang to the side of the rebels. Although the Han Dynasty improved corvée, it also continued some of the regulations of the pre-Qin period. The people who were expropriated, first of all, had no time Farming, but also food, the last round of corvee, you will be poor, and after a few times, you will be impoverished. You have to sell the land, and even sell your children..." Wang Yong said slowly.

Corvée is really too operable.Local landlords only need to collude with the local government to force a group of owner farmers to become proletarians, and then annex these sold properties to expand the land under their own name.

Over time, land annexation has become more and more serious, and the people have become poorer and poorer. The wealth is basically gathered in the hands of rich businessmen and landlords. These guys have no concept of consumption, and they just hide and save money. The economy of the whole society is lifeless. .

Others don't know, anyway, since Wang Yong traveled to a world with such an ancient background, it is natural to put forward opinions on this issue.

"Then why pay salaries?" If we talk about paying food, it is to avoid the common people. The more they serve corvee, the poorer they become.Then there is no need to pay salary, right?In this way, what's the point of corvée? !

"My lord, you might as well think about it differently!" Wang Yong organized his words, "If the people have money in their hands and have a stable income every year. They have extra money besides living expenses, will they choose to repair the houses? , to buy farm tools, or even living utensils?"

"If conditions permit, who wouldn't want to live a better life?" Cao Cao agreed with this statement after a little thought.

Wang Yong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and continued to explain: "When the people buy farm tools, the business of blacksmith shops, cloth shops, and even carpentry shops will improve. If the business of blacksmith shops improves, more iron ore will be needed. This drives the sales of iron ore; the business of the cloth shop improves, and more cloth is needed, so the income of the people who grow flax will increase; and the business of the carpenter's shop improves, more wood is needed...

When the economy in the city improves, the people's need for food will increase.As a result of the increase, the price of crops will increase, and eventually the income of farmers will also increase.The process of commercial activities will also increase the business tax. Finally, when the economy becomes active, the government can also receive more taxes. This part of the increase is even more than the part of the salary paid to farmers. many.At the same time, all walks of life have become more prosperous, gradually forming a virtuous circle. "

"Wuyou means, you don't support the situation of saving money?" Xun Yu saw some clues.

"The essence of money is an equivalent. It is just a metal product that cannot fill the stomach or warm the body. Only by allowing them to circulate among the people can the development of all walks of life be promoted. On the contrary, if they are all stored, the result will be that the entire market will be lifeless. At the same time The price of goods will gradually increase, and eventually the people will be unable to afford the goods they need, and the people in the city will be unable to afford the food they want, and the tax revenue will gradually decrease..." Wang Yong thought about it for a while. road.

"Then..." Xun Yu is in charge of the accounts, so he knows the situation in the past few years, "Taking Dongjun County as an example, the tax revenue has indeed declined in the past two or three years. At first, I thought it was caused by natural and man-made disasters... Thinking about it carefully, the sudden increase in prices is probably related to the lack of private wealth reserves.”

"It's just that this involves the revision of the "Han Law"..." Cao Cao was a little embarrassed.

"It can be tried in Xudu, or even in Yingchuan County, and then two or three years later to achieve results, and then gradually spread!" Wang Yong quickly suggested that the pilot model, no matter where it is, will have a great effect.

For example, Zhang Juzheng's reform is to be piloted in Fujian and Guangdong, and then gradually spread out.Any policies in later generations will be tested locally before being promoted nationwide.

"Well, after I go back, I will tell His Majesty to promote it in Xu County. The farming system is also good. After two or three months, I will strive for a variety of high-yield crops, which may be able to meet the needs." Ruliu, especially those, are obviously suggestions for her consideration.

Maybe it's because he's young, but his mind is still bright and he can keep up with the rhythm.In old age, it takes a long time to think about a problem, and the officials can't analyze it directly.Of course, this is Lao Cao from that world, and Cao Meng from this world is said to still have puberty for hundreds of years!

Wang Yong even wondered if the Three Kingdoms of this world would reward him for 200 years if they followed the normal historical process?When the time comes, how will the population problem be solved?Wouldn't it be true that the civil war will lead to the subjugation of the country and genocide? !

Fortunately, he traveled to this world and voted for Cao Cao, so no matter what he said, he would have to intervene to end the war in this world ahead of schedule.So that the Chinese nation can turn their attention from the civil strife to the north, the west, and even the east and south.

The basic strategy is set, and the Yellow Turban Rebellion has stopped, so there is no need to waste time here.

However, Xun Yu suggested to send troops to the south, taking advantage of the fact that Runan County is now being ravaged by the Yellow Turbans and there is not enough defenders everywhere, to directly coerce and subdue them, and expand the territory to Runan County.

Cao Cao thought for a while when he heard the words, and swept Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun...

P.S
In order to ensure that the author is not hungry, please continue to vote (ding) food (yue)!
　The resignation report was typed up, but it was approved by the above, and it would take a few days to recruit someone to take over... It probably depends on whether I want to go back on my word (how is it possible).

　　Sometimes I really want to say that the report has already been typed up, so why don’t I just let go of the burden... It’s a pity that I’m not that kind of person. At least walk in a more aboveboard manner.

　　Ask for collection, ask for recommendation, ask for subscription!
