Vow to die at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 322 Three Years War (Seventeen)
What Qiu Tianxing picked up this time was a request for instructions on material allocation.

As soon as the cannon fired, it was ten thousand taels of gold. This battle had been fought for almost half a year, and the security team's savings over the years were all filled in at once.There are requests for soldiers, weapons, money, and food everywhere.Chou Tianxing was very annoying to watch.

The rise of war hindered the circulation of commerce, and many livelihood products were unsalable.In particular, Zhu Chenggong's troops at sea blocked the commercial roads, which greatly reduced exports.People's livelihood is declining, the economy is in recession, and there are huge pensions, all of which are rapidly consuming the strength of the security team.

First of all, the Ministry of Industry and Commerce couldn't hold on anymore. After all, most of the businessmen were not arms dealers. They all hoped that the war would subside quickly. The start of this war almost brought business activities to a standstill.In addition, the Ministry of Finance also submitted a monthly report on the sharp drop in fiscal revenue.In addition, the Ministry of Civil Affairs also sent a request for instructions on appropriation of funds and food. Because of the continuation of the war, the border areas have been unable to afford the money and food of the army. Now the food transport team has almost transported from the Jinling area to southern Zhejiang and Anqing. It reflects that the strength of the security team is seriously overdrawn.

However, the war still has to go on, even if we grit our teeth and tighten our belts.Because the security team will have a future if they win this war, and if they lose, they will have nothing.To put it cruelly, if we win the battle, the people's livelihood under the rule of the security regiment can also be remanaged by Bai Banan.But if they are defeated, what does this devastated scene have to do with the security team?

Therefore, Qiu Tianxing would not even respond to some voices in the Ministry of Industry and Commerce calling for an end to the war.Of course, the emotions of these people and businessmen cannot be neglected.Therefore, Qiu Tianxing issued instructions in the document, requesting the Ministry of Industry and Commerce to urge all factories and enterprises to transform into military products.The Military Commission will increase orders, whether it is military uniforms, shoes and hats, quilts, tents, and winter clothes that are only needed after the cold weather. Even if you don’t use so much, you will stockpile them and save them for military expansion.

The Ministry of Finance's report to Qiu Tianxing has no choice but to instruct the Ministry of Finance to increase taxes, issue bonds, and hold activities calling on the public to donate.At the same time, Qiu Tianxing instructed the Ministry of Finance to set up a bank and mint coins to ease economic pressure.

For the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Qiu Tianxing instructed the Ministry of Civil Affairs to monitor prices to avoid sharp price increases.Controls were implemented on living materials such as grain and salt, the trading of such materials was prohibited, and a rationing system was implemented.In addition, the Ministry of Civil Affairs will lead the people to reclaim wasteland and build dams to increase the area of ​​fields.A variety of food plants such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn, and economic plants such as tea and tobacco can reduce the cultivated area.

After reviewing the documents from the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, the Ministry of Finance, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Qiu Tianxing dug out the report from the Political Propaganda Department of the Military Commission from a pile of documents.After watching it for a while, Qiu Tianxing instructed the Political Propaganda Department to launch a guerrilla offensive in Jiangxi as soon as possible. The guerrilla in Jiangxi is too small to affect the logistics and transportation lines of Wu Sangui's army.For this reason, Qiu Tianxing specially approved 10 taels of silver, [-] taels of weapons such as knives, guns, bows and crossbows, and even [-] grenades and explosives.In addition to recruiting the bandits in Jiangxi, the Political Propaganda Department also needs to strengthen the ideological propaganda of the people under its rule, so that the people accept the war, recognize the war, and wholeheartedly support the security team to win the war.To this end, it doesn’t matter whether the Political Propaganda Department shouts slogans, rehearses plays, prints big-character posters, or holds mobilization meetings.

After thinking for a while, Qiu Tianxing picked up a blank piece of paper and drafted a document. Later, this document needs to be revised into a standard document by the regiment office, and issued by the security regiment office [Huaxing 12th Year] No. 98, etc. typeface.In this draft document, Qiu Tianxing ordered the Equipment Department to provide weapons to the Political Propaganda Department and fully cooperate with the Political Propaganda Department's work.In addition, the Equipment Department needs to expand its scale to absorb some of the workers who lost their jobs due to the recession.

It's getting late after all this busy work.After looking at the sunlight outside the window, Qiu Tianxing felt that it should be You hour.So he called Xu Sheng, the deputy director and chief secretary, and handed over the document he drafted to Xu Sheng.

In just a quarter of an hour, Xu Sheng came back.At this moment, the document returned to Qiu Tianxing has become an official document with clear writing and strict format.After careful inspection, Qiu Tianxing picked up a seal from the table and stamped it, then signed his name.Then Qiu Tianxing handed this document and the previously reviewed documents to Xu Sheng, and he said to Xu Sheng.

"Xiao Xu, you arrange for someone to distribute all the documents I reviewed today. I'll be off work soon, so you don't have to follow. Go."

"Yes, head, then I'm going out." Xu Sheng replied respectfully, and then withdrew.

Seeing Xu Sheng go out, Qiu Tianxing tidied up the seals on the table and put them all in the drawer, then locked the drawer and left the office.

In fact, Qiu Tianxing didn't finish today's work at all, but he no longer has the interest to continue working.At this moment, Qiu Tianxing wanted to go back early, sitting in the office all day long got bad news, which made him feel like sitting on pins and needles, and his bones felt uncomfortable.At this moment, Qiu Tianxing wanted to go back early to be with his family and relieve his irritability.It has been two months, and Qiu Tianxing has not had a stable meal with his family.

If you are not in charge of a family, you do not know how expensive the firewood is, and if you are not a leader, you do not know how difficult it is to be a leader.The lives of nearly ten million people are worrying, hundreds of thousands of troops are fighting endlessly, and the outcome is unknown. The economic downturn and the increasing number of factory closures are worrying.There are also some problems from time to time that make people worry, and the discord in the backyard at home makes people worry.After sitting in this position, Qiu Tianxing became thinner and grayer, his whole body seemed to be ten years older.

After leaving the office, Qiu Tian walked for a quarter of an hour, and after passing through several gates, he returned to his home in the backyard.

When Zhou Xiu and Li Xiafang saw their husband came back for dinner, they became excited.At the same time, Qiu Dining and Qiu Dijing were also happy to see their father.The two children kept arguing around Qiu Tianxing, clamoring for hugs.So Qiu Tianxing hugged this one, and then hugged that one, which calmed Qiu Tianxing's irritable mood a lot.Although Qiu Tianxing came back to rest every day, usually it was Haishi when he came back, and the children had already fallen asleep by then.

After hugging Qiu Dining and Qiu Dijing, Qiu Tianxing came to Li Xiafang's side, picked up the child Qiu Dixiang in Li Xiafang's arms, and played with the child, feeling much happier.

It is already September of the 12th year of Huaxing. Qiu Dining was born in the first month of the sixth year of Huaxing, and he is now seven years old.Qiu Dijing was born No. 20 in September of the tenth year of Huaxing, and is now two years old.The youngest Qiu Dixiang was born on October 11, [-] in Huaxing, and he is not yet one year old.

Staying with the children, Qiu Tianxing forgot the endless troubles, and he felt extremely happy.
