Follow General Cao to mix the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 374

Wang Hou's cheeks also twitched slightly.

The autumn harvest was approaching soon, and the figure Su Shuang reported was 200 million shi!

One stone of the Han Dynasty is about a hundred catties, and two million stones are equivalent to one hundred thousand tons of grain. Although it is nothing compared to the tens of millions of tons in later generations, it is now the troubled times at the end of the Han Dynasty. While a state can guarantee its own rations, It can also export nearly 200 tons of grain, as Chen Dengzhi can see.

This amount is even 10,000+ stones higher than last year, but it is still far from enough for Wang Hou. You must know that Taishan, Rizhao, Daocheng, the newly opened Weigang, and the Black Mountain Army have to support them. These are not grain production. The land consumes the grain land, and the 200 million shi grain points are almost gone.

"Langya Country can export 40 shi, but as for Qi, it can only export 80 shi this year."

Zhuge Lie also reported helplessly.

Hearing this answer, Wang Hou couldn't help raising his brows, but Wang Hou was a little annoyed at hearing this, and repeated a sentence in astonishment.

"Only 80 shi?"

In terms of fertile fields, Qi State is stronger than Xuzhou. Later Shandong is an important base of agricultural products in China, but Xuzhou is not on the list. In this case, Chen Deng can export 200 million shi, but Qi can only export 80. The gap is really huge Wang Hou couldn't accept it a bit. You must know that Qi Di has been recuperating for more than a year.

and!As Prime Minister of Qi and leader of the three counties of Qi, Sima Yi did not come to the Qingzhou regular meeting summoned by Wang Hou before the autumn harvest, and had to entrust his neighbor Zhuge Lie to report. This attitude really made Wang Hou a little annoyed.

"The state herdsman, Le'an County and Jinan Kingdom have to support the two brigades of Zang Ba and Mount Tai, which cost a lot, and after General Zhang Yan was stationed in Qidi according to the order of the state herdsman, there was no shortage of troubles when he took over the land. The next official set off A while ago, Prime Minister Sima Guo made an appointment with his subordinates to go eastward together. However, in Baqiu, there was a bloody fight between the Wu Dun cavalry and the Montenegro cavalry. Wangzhou Mu forgive me!"

The corners of Wang Hou's mouth couldn't help twitching slightly, it's really self-inflicted!The century-old families he looked up to were not pleasing to the eye, the Taishan Army, the Black Mountain Army, whatever troubles were thrown there, and now he was rewarded by the Qidi family who was tossing and grinning, but he had nothing to say.

A few days ago, Jia Xu reported that Sima Yi formed an alliance with the local aristocratic family and tried his best to win over the relationship. On the one hand, he did have ambitions, on the other hand, the current young Sima was also forced.

Rizhao was built by Wang Hou alone, and the iron factory was all set up by him. No force could threaten his rule. Zhuge Lie was born in Langya County, and one third of Qingzhou was safe and sound.

The island city is a bit more complicated, but Jia Xu has a second island city brigade that can be called, and Jia Xu speaks hard, but what does Sima Yi have?nothing!
Zang Ba Wu Dun listened to Wang Hou, but it didn't mean he listened to him, he could only sell him some face, and now there was another Nezha under his nose, which was difficult enough for Sima Yi.

Jia Xu was a little gloating there, telling you to lose money, and even asking for trouble, you must be deflated now!
However, he is not too worried. Although there is a gap between a million shi, but 60 million shi can still be obtained. Cao Cao will attack Wuhuan with a maximum of 10 troops, and [-] strong men to transport food, which is enough .

Ancient wars consumed a huge amount of food!The most important thing is long-distance transportation. For example, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty attacked Hu. The furthest grain was transported from the Jianghuai River to Yanmen Pass. It would be good if one of the twenty stones was in place. But the most difficult part was solved by Wang Hou by sea. Shen Kuomengxi According to written calculations, 1 people can eat 1 shi for 60 days, and they can get food locally, plus horses. The [-] shi food is enough for Cao Cao to march outside the Great Wall for four months.

What forces in this era can allow the Han army to attack in their own territory for four months?Not even the Huns!

It is estimated that Mr. Cao did not place any hope on Wang Houzhen's stockpiling of a million shi of grain, and even with only 40 shi of grain, he is probably satisfied.

However, what Jia Xu didn't know was that Wang Hou's 100 million shi of grain was not just for Cao Cao to eat, he also wanted to store up military grain for himself to march into Liaodong!The 40 shi wiped out just took away the food he wanted to leave for himself, Wang Hou squeezed his chin, and felt distressed.

The bottom line of the real person was really forced out. While several important ministers and allies were preparing, they pinched their chins and thought for a long time, and Wang Hou finally made another stroke of his finger.

"If you owe more than ten guan in gambling debt, you can forcefully collect the debt, but if you can't repay it, I will send it to the ship to work and pay it back! Tomorrow, we will start to gather the island city ships, and first send the Rizhao Brigade to me. Stock up on food in Liaodong corner!"

Even if he sells him to Wang Hou as a sailor, he will definitely be ripped off by him. It's not bad that he can give three passes for ten passes, but it's still a lot of money, and it's for nothing. One jumped up heavily and bowed.

"Little man obeys!"

…………

This holiday, Jia Xu probably didn't want to have a meal with him, but wanted to go home and eat with his family. As for Gao Tie, the prodigal son, he would be happy to dine with him, but Wang Hou didn't want to dine with him yet. Well, they were all sent away.

At this end, a few people rode out through the big iron gate one after another, and at the private gate of the small garden at the other end, a carriage entered briskly under the retinue of dozens of knights.

Wang Hou is hypocritical enough. He said he missed his daughter. After taking Changle back, he sent her to Laoshan Academy to study. Although it is rich enough to build a separate college for her daughter, it is still the same. No parent-child education?

But anyway, five days a holiday, the family can be reunited.

Throwing away a pile of documents, changing his lifeless expression just now, and arranging his clothes in the mirror, he went downstairs with a smile on his face.

"Le'er, Daddy is here to pick you up!"

At the door of the carriage, an old face was as happy as an old chrysanthemum, stretching out his hands, Wang Hou greeted him "incomparably kindly", but the only little master in Qingzhou who needed Wang Hou's "favor" did not give him face, little one With a small body, she jumped out of the carriage and hugged a doll. Le'er, as if she hadn't seen it, walked towards Lu Ji on the other side with small square steps.

"Aunt Lu, Le'er misses you!"

"Forehead……"

Not only Wang Hou was embarrassed, but even his mother-in-law Cao Hongjie was also embarrassed. In the embarrassment, Wang Hou smiled awkwardly and rubbed Deng Ai's head with Deng Ai's dull face.

"Little Deng Ai, you've grown taller again!"

"Wow! The braised pork tastes like soft fried river prawns, Xiao Dengzi, go!"

Cao Zhang, the brother-in-law who was sent to the Cavalry Academy by Wang Hou, was the last to jump off with a basketball made of pig piss bubbles, but he turned around and ran away with Deng Ai.

The last one to get out of the car was Zhen Mi. Originally, this little girl was full of troubles, but she was struggling to get out of the car. Seeing the twitching corners of Wang Hou's mouth and the straight veins on her forehead, she closed her mouth again in grief. Son, she doesn't dare to provoke Wang Hou again at this time, otherwise she will be served by a bundle of hemp rope again, this pervert!
Fortunately, although Wang Hou, the number one leader of Qingzhou, didn't have much face at the welcome meeting, the reunion dinner was still very warm. The embarrassment of Cao Zhang burning his clothes at the newly built Eternal Fire Altar was revealed, and the kid rolled his eyes in anger.

After finishing the meal, Wang Hou took the initiative to drag Zhen Mi out.

"Tell me! What's the matter?"

In the study, watching the girl staring at the clothesline until she shrunk her head, Wang Hou slumped to his chair with his arm on his back, sat down comfortably, and asked lazily.

"that……"

The fingers of the little hand were tangled up, and after another second of hesitation, Zhen Mi asked with difficulty.

"My elder brother Zhen Yao came to see me from Jizhou and wanted me to apply for an official position in front of the state pastor!"

"Oh!"

This first brother-in-law made my teeth itch with hatred!Another uncle appeared at the other end, seeing Zhen Mi's tangled appearance, Wang Hou couldn't help scratching his head.

"Let him come to see me tomorrow!"
