I don't want to be a saint

Chapter 156 Is He the Heir of Ghost Valley?
Guo Yi understood Xue Qingzhi's mood at the moment, but he just shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and responded: "I think you also know that the Jiangling treasury has already been emptied, and the treasury on Kuizhou Road, even if there is some spare Money is probably a drop in the bucket.

And if you want to get food without money, it's either stealing or robbing! "

Great truth!
Gangneung Fortress Big Truth Brothers...

Xue Qingzhi naturally understood it, but he still couldn't pass the test in his heart. He tried his best to argue: "If you want to rob food, you can get some at the beginning. But after the news of the robbery spread one after another, those big grain merchants stopped going to Kui. The state road has transported food, what should I do?"

Yes, everyone woke up suddenly, and what he said made sense.Now even if the price is high, you can still buy it, but once people stop transporting food there, you won't be able to buy it if you want to.

Instead, make its opposite.

"Haha!" Guo Yi smiled brightly, met everyone's eyes, and further explained: "Then let the Kuizhou government send troops to suppress bandits. And, in the name of sending troops to suppress bandits, forcibly recruit guards from various grain merchants in the city .

Then, taking advantage of the lack of troops in the city, let these bandits enter the city and open warehouses to release food!
Copy their lair! "

Vicious!

Really sinister!
What an alternative version of the empty city plan!

Everyone was numb and had nothing to say.You just mentioned a loophole, and it was easily filled by others.Not only mended with needles, but nailed to death with nails.

Xue Qingzhi was dumbfounded again, and the distressed expression on his face became more and more intense. He turned his head to look at the King of Chu. This was the last rescuer.

The king of Chu is also very helpless. I am a prince who does not work hard and does not distinguish five grains. I used to write poems and songs. I have just reached the age of weak crown and I have no life experience. How can I have any ideas...

Then, he smiled wryly and said, "You know, the treasury of Jiangling has already been emptied. If Erlang hadn't selflessly distributed a part of the candle profits and built the Liuzhihe saltworks, Jinghu North Road would have been severely drought-stricken. Contiguous!

Even now, Erlang is doing his best to maintain the various anti-drought measures on Jinghu North Road.

For this reason, he also built a papermaking workshop and created a water conservancy loom. Even the daily profits of the two restaurants outside were used to fill the holes.

Not only that, after he was busy during the day, he had to work hard to paint the porcelain when he came back in the evening.

I feel that I owe a lot! "

In short, in a word, the Jiangling treasury is not only short of money, but also full of holes.

This time, Xue Qingzhi completely gave up.Looking dully at the lotus pond in front of him, his expression is very calm, but his heart is turbulent.

Guo Yi presented him with a big problem. On one side were tens of millions of Li civilians, and on the other side were hundreds of thousands of innocent guards.

At first glance, it seems that the left is heavy and the right is light.But it cannot be treated so simply, human life is of no importance!

They are all raised by their parents.

Dilemma...

But Lu Zixi glanced at Guo Yi with beautiful eyes. The King of Chu just said a lot and revealed a lot of information.

Two restaurants, a papermaking workshop, water conservancy looms, and painting porcelain...

Undoubtedly, it should all be related to Guo Yi.Just don't know the exact details yet.

On the other hand, Guo Yi smiled wryly and said, "I don't want to make such a bad move. It will hurt others, but I really have no money. If all the construction of Jinghu North Road is stopped, and money is raised to save Kuizhou Road, it will not only be A drop in the bucket is still unfair to Jinghu North Road.

As for Kuizhou Road, there are only three ways out: either save yourself, or wait for the imperial court to allocate funds for disaster relief.Or... pray to God it rains now! "

The last one is not realistic at all, so it should be ruled out directly.If God wanted to rain, he wouldn't be dry now.

It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, no one can care about these two things!

In this way, only the first and second items are left.

First, save yourself.How to save?Open warehouses to release grain, and pay for grain.

You know, almost 70.00% of the taxes paid across the country are handed over to the imperial court.The remaining 20.00% is the salary of all local officials.

The remaining [-]% is for the local people.For example, it is used to purchase grain in the Changping warehouse, to recruit long-term and short-term workers for various constructions, and to build water conservancy facilities, and other miscellaneous things.

In a word, even if Kuizhou Road does not carry out various constructions like Jingbei Road to appease the envoy, it will not have too much money in its own treasury.

Otherwise, in the past, a self-proclaimed man like the King of Chu would not have thought of Yanglin Village Shitan.

In the late autumn of last year, an unexpected flood hit Jiangling Mansion.Simply, the affected area was not wide, only causing a large-scale flash flood that flooded several villages.

But even so, after the king of Chu used part of the treasury, he began to play with Guo Yi's idea.

Without him, there are actually not many in the treasury.

Otherwise, you can see that once disasters occur in various places, they are all waiting for the appropriation from the imperial court, almost without exception.

Well, that's it.Only the second article is left, waiting for the appropriation from the court.

There must be a process in the middle. Your local governments will report first. After the imperial court receives the report documents, they will first send out inspection envoys to see if there is really a disaster, and how serious is the disaster?How many people were hurt?How much funding is needed?And where do these allocations come from, is it directly allocated from the central government, or is it somewhere else...

In a word, it's not that you said there was a disaster, the imperial court allocated funds!

And even if the funds are allocated, some of this interception, that interception of some, and some corruption, what really goes to the people may be a few grains of rice...

Finally, the document reported to the imperial court is a set of cold numbers, which year and month the disaster occurred, and how many people died.

But the court saw it, oh, it was just a dead person, there was no rebellion, and the handling was okay.

finished...

The filing of the case by the imperial court is over, and so are many people, but this disaster is not over yet, and the aftermath is still there. A large group of refugees who have lost their homes and businesses are wandering around like ghosts!

Guo Yi talked a lot in a rambunctious manner, and his quick-talking words were like two storytellers.

"Okay! Stop talking!" Xue Qingzhi covered his ears with his hands and shook his head vigorously.

His Royal Highness the King of Chu stroked his forehead with his hands, covering his face to see others.Good guy, you can talk too much!
The Taoist is still leaning on the pillar, drinking with his head up, but the smile on his mouth has already betrayed him.

Strategists, that's all there is to it, right?

Strategist?
and many more…

Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration. This Guo Yi and Guo Erlang could not be the descendant of Guigu, right?
Otherwise, how do you explain that he knows so many things at such a young age?

How can you write the art of looking at mountains and rivers without traveling all over the mountains and rivers?

There are also new well-drilling methods, paper-making workshops, and hydraulic looms. How to explain these?
