Chapter 286: Zhuge Ziyu's Obsession!
Yuan Tan's plan for the Xuzhou army should be a standard of 15 regular soldiers and [-] auxiliary soldiers.

It's just that right now, whether it's Xuzhou's productivity or food reserves, there's a huge gap between him and his goal.

So we can only take a step back and raise [-] soldiers and horses first.

How could further disarmament be possible?
That is to say, because Zhuge Jin had suffered enough during this period, Yuan Tan did not reveal his real grand goal.

Otherwise, Yuan Tan was really afraid that the Minister of Internal Affairs, whom he had managed to win over, would be unable to breathe and hang in front of him.

As for preferential treatment of soldiers?
joke.

For Yuan Tan, who is a time traveler, he only has one classic line in his heart when looking at the ancient army, especially the treatment of the ancient army.

That is, everyone here is rubbish.

Two stones a month is called preferential treatment?
Among the soldiers of later generations, which one is not the kind whose military salary is enough to feed the whole family and has a good life!
Even in later generations, the monthly wages of national soldiers who serve in the military will be a solid middle-class salary, okay?

The low salaries and poor treatment of soldiers in the Han Dynasty caused soldiers to be at the bottom of the chain of contempt in society.

Even during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the glorious years when one Han was the five Hu.

The so-called preferential treatment of the Han soldiers did not come from the country, but from their seizures in foreign wars.

Even if these seizures were made, they would still be divided among the big shots, and only the poorest ones would get their hands.

But even this pitiful point was enough to make them grateful, and tied the head on the waistband of their trousers to fight in return.

Under the influence of later generations of culture, even though it has been several years since this era, he has reached a high position that he never thought of in his previous life.

The imperceptible nourishment of modern civilization still prevents Yuan Tan from being able to act like most of the great figures of this era.

Take the dedication and sacrifice of the little people for granted.

In Yuan Tan's view, life is priceless and precious, and any one's life should be equal, at least relatively equivalent.

A soldier who protects his homeland with swords and guns is no more humble than a scholar who studies scriptures with a book in hand.

Similarly, a general who commanded soldiers to charge forward, win all battles, defend the country and expand the territory should not be inferior to a minister who strategized and managed the country to make the country flourish.

Under the influence of this kind of thinking, it is of course impossible for Yuan Tan to reduce the treatment of the army.

As for asking cheap daddy for help?

Although there are shadow guards to protect them, the implementation of the policy of mass clean-up still encounters a lot of resistance.

Daddy Cheap also knew that he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so after the Shadow Guards frightened the Hebei family.

He didn't directly raise the butcher knife as usual. Even Yang Rong, who offended him in public, only killed Yang Rong.

As for the Yang family in Youzhou, which was behind Yang Rong, it was still reserved, but it was only a symbolic fine of three hundred catties of copper.

This relatively tolerant policy has paid off gratifyingly.

Although the policy of clearing the people to a certain extent has been repeatedly obstructed, it has not caused attacks on officials who have been sent to the countryside as before.

This vicious event comes.

But it also means that in the short term, the treasury in Hebei will also be in an empty state.

After all, the land was measured to clear the people, and the hidden households and hidden fields that were cleared needed to be cultivated, and they were separated from the protection of the family.

The situation is slightly better than that of the refugees, but it is not much better. Before the autumn harvest, the government of Hebei also needs to provide relief.

In addition, unlike Xuzhou, Hebei can only harvest one season a year, and the output is limited.

Without the time to recuperate for three to five years, it is impossible to expand externally, even if it is to provide some support to Xuzhou.

It will have to wait until after the autumn harvest at the earliest.

In other words, Yuan Tan has no good solution to Zhuge Jin's current headache.

For the current plan, we can only wait until the armor produced by the water hammer workshop reaches a certain scale.

According to Yuan Tan's previous plan, he can contact Jiangdong and buy rice and money from Jiangdong.

Although Zhuge Jin didn't know Yuan Tan's hidden case, he also knew that Junhou had made some preparations and would not really let himself give the soldiers IOUs when the time came.

It's just to prepare for a rainy day, so I come to Qihou mansion to guard Yuan Tan at a fixed time every day.

But today, Zhuge Jin really couldn't hold on anymore.

Because Yuan Tan made another cool move.

Resisting the urge to break into the inner house, Zhuge Jin's face was more bitter and helpless than Yuan Lang who was guarding the inner house. He took a breath and said quietly:
"Guard Yuan, please tell my lord that Tzuyu really disagrees with the fact that the auxiliary soldiers are paid double the salary!"

Earlier, Yuan Tan offered rewards to the auxiliary soldiers. He would give them a monthly salary as a reward for building the prototype of the academy within [-] days.

If it is completed within ten days, another month's salary will be added!
In other words, the February salary of the auxiliary barracks has risen from the original two shimi to six shimi!
Although only the [-] auxiliary barracks that participated in the construction had a share.

But I can't hold it up so much!

If it was one stone of rice and two stone of rice, Zhuge Jin gritted his teeth and accepted it.

But what's going on with the extra [-] shim of expenditure out of thin air?

Zhuge Jin's original plan was to transport 40 shimi from Hebei, plus Xuzhou's original stock of rice.

Before and after 50 shi rice, [-] shi rice was sold, on the one hand, the price of rice in the market was stabilized.

On the one hand, it is also the return of funds, 5000 shimi, according to the current rice price in Xuzhou, there is no doubt that there is [-] million yuan.

With the principal of 5000 million in hand, many of the projects that Zhuge Jin envisioned before can be carried out.

Relief with work, this simple but effective method of disaster relief and gathering refugees, has appeared as early as the Western Han Dynasty.

Zhuge Jin is no stranger to this kind of method as a talented person in the world.

The 5000 million yuan can be used to dredge the rivers in the countryside of Xuzhou on the one hand, and to gather refugees on the other hand.

After the [-] shi rice stabilized the food price, the refugees could also buy enough rice with their wages.

Not to mention a rich life, at least you can fill your stomach and support your family.

While dredging the river, it can restore a large number of abandoned fields in Xuzhou, and the field strength can be restored and distributed to the refugees.

Either as official land for lease, or as private land for sale, a large amount of funds can be withdrawn from the private sector.

Then the government came forward to purchase rice grains on the market, continue to implement work-for-relief, and further expand the scale of refugee recruitment.

A large number of abandoned fields in Xuzhou can also be restored, and Xuzhou's population, productivity, etc., can be quickly restored in this series of virtuous cycles.

But now, Yuan Tan sent out [-] shimi in one sentence.

Zhuge Jin's original plan was completely disrupted by his own prince.

How could Zhuge Jin accept this.

Although Zhuge Jin also understands, there are no jokes in the army.

But this matter must not just pass for no reason. Zhuge Jin secretly clenched his fists, his eyes were firm, and his heart was full of tragic will.

You must let the lord know that as the lord, you must not do whatever you want, you must discuss with the courtiers, and come up with a perfect plan!
