The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 57 A Brilliant Year ([-])
"The next step is dividends. In summary, the profit of my Fuxing Society this year is more than 800 million. How should this dividend be distributed? Shareholders, let me talk about it. Well, Boyu, you are the latest shareholder, you Firstly."

Chen Can, who had just accepted half of the shares released by Guan Yi and Mi Zhao, got up and bowed his hands to everyone: "Prefect, colleagues. Today's meeting, Can only has two words: shocking! Who would have thought that in this big man All the elders and brothers have done such a great job in this small remote county. Can, I deeply admire you."

After taking a deep bow, Chen Can continued: "As for the dividends, hehe, thanks to the prefect and Brother Boyao for not giving up, I was accepted to join the Fuxing Society. Can is already deeply honored. So, this year's dividends, Can will not want it." , All invested in the market, as the start-up capital for next year. Can firmly believes that under the leadership of the prefect, my revival society will grow stronger year by year! Three to five years later, today's dividends are a joke!"

"Boyu is right! Brother, my Zhang family has been greatly loved by the late Emperor and His Majesty, so we have a lot of land in CD, but if it is really divided according to this year's dividends, what Zhang Zun gets is equal to my family's annual turnover. It’s almost there. What am I going to do with so much money? Here in Fuling, we have everything to eat and wear, and we have no place to spend the money. I still agree with Boyu, this year there will be no dividends, and all will be invested in the market!”

"The meaning of Boyu and Lingxing is also the meaning of secret. Prefect, colleagues, Li Mi was poor when he was young, and he has never seen so much money in his life. The money suddenly increased, and he really didn't know how to spend it. And Dear colleagues, the prefect led us to establish this revival society. The purpose is not to make money, but to use it as a cornerstone to revive Dahan! This year we just played a small fight in Hanfu County and spent thousands of dollars. How much will it cost if there is a protracted war with the puppet Wei in the future? So Mi means that this year’s dividends are naturally not needed, and the dividends in the next three to five years are also not needed. All continue to be invested in revival Society, may the prefect continue to lead us and accumulate strength for the revival of the great man!"

"I will second the proposal, may the prefect lead us, accumulate strength, and revive the great man!"

"Guan Yi is lucky to be able to work with all of you!" Guan Yi got up, bowed to everyone and said solemnly: "If a person has no ideals, he is no different from a walking corpse. Although it is a corner of the state, the whole country is still full of vigor than the Puppet Wei and Soochow, because we can still persist in the ideal of revitalizing the Han Dynasty. But! But if people talk about ideals and ignore money and other vulgar things, the ideals will not last. So , this bonus still has to be shared."

Pressing lightly with both hands, after suppressing everyone's speech, Guan Yi continued: "Of the more than 3000 million bonuses, at least 2000 million are grain, and this will not be moved for the time being. Salary reserve. The remaining 800 million, 1000 million will be distributed as dividends, and the remaining 800 million will be given to the employees of the Fuxing Society as a year-end bonus. What do you think?"

"Good! Good advice, brother!"

"Good! I'll wait for the second!"

"Okay, everyone, I will talk about the matter of the Fuxing Society today, and let's talk about county affairs. Change it."

"Here, prefect and colleagues, in the early 20th year of Yanxi, when the prefect and all of you took office, the household registration in the county's civil register was 820 households, 135650 and five households. The registered arable land in the county was 350 mu. As of November of the first year of Jingyao, there are 73 registered households in the county, with 15 people! The registered cultivated land is 21 mu! In the past two years, the number of people in Fuling County has increased by [-]%. ! Cultivated land increased by [-]%!"

In the Wuling mountainous area of ​​Fuling County, before Guan Yi took out potatoes and popularized them on a large scale, the growth rate of cultivated land was just like this.In fact, Guan Yi knew very well that starting from next year, the growth rate of cultivated land in the whole county can be half achieved every year, which is not bad.

However, the industry in Fuling County is not based on farming.After nearly two years of hard work by Guan Yi, Fuling County has formed a primary light industry system with pig production as the core and various handicrafts derived from it.In such a system, as long as grain can be continuously purchased from outside, the size of the arable land is not what Guan Yi cares about.

What Guan Yi cares about is the population!
In the past two years, the population of Fuling County has increased by more than 50%. Apart from natural growth, this is mainly due to the internal attachment of the Bizika tribe and the surrender of the Menzihei tribe.But this growth rate is still too slow compared to what Guan Yi will do in the future!

To save the Shu Han from the disaster of subjugation in the future, Guan Yi, or the Fuxing Society must have at least [-] private soldiers!If you want to raise soldiers, you can earn money and buy food, but the population base is there. You can't make all the people soldiers, right?

Moreover, they still have the court of the Shu Han on their heads. If they really want to farm and raise soldiers in this place, I am afraid that before Cao Wei comes to destroy the Shu Han, the central government of the Shu Han will destroy them first.

"Well, this year, the household registration and arable land in Fuling County have increased greatly. Guan Yi thanked everyone here."

"We are also fortunate to follow the prefect."

"Next, I want to talk about the defense of the county, Yumbo."

"No, prefect, colleagues. Before the Hanfu war in September this year, I had a total of 150 merchant guards and 150 county soldiers in Fuling County. After the Hanfu battle, the 240 county soldiers were not damaged. But five Among the guards of the Baishang Company, 85 people were killed in battle, and 200 people were seriously injured and could no longer join the army. Therefore, the number of guards in the trading company is less than [-] now."

"Everyone, now we can be regarded as a big family and a big business. Among other things, there are nearly 2000 Menzi black captives who have just been taken in as coolies. If we don't expand the guards of our trading company, then maybe someday those Menzi black prisoners will be killed." Rise up and rebel!"

In fact, what Guan Yi said was not true: after the captives of Mengzihei came to Fuling, Guan Yi and the others only used three tricks: first pick out the leaders and let the slaves at the bottom kill them, and then give the rest Come for a pork bibimbap.And promised to send people to bring the family members of these people - and then this group of Menzihei will be more Han Chinese than Han Chinese.

However, among these people here, who would think that they have few soldiers in their hands?
"My brother is right. The guards of this trading company must be expanded as soon as possible."

"What Guowei said is reasonable, I'll wait to second it."

"Well, Uncle Yong, Ling Xing, you guys need to make a budget. In the first half of next year, we will expand the guards of the trading company to 1000 people. As for the source of troops, first consider the Han people in this county, and secondly, Bizi who went down the mountain last year. Ka, and finally Menzihei who has just been subdued."

"No! Please rest assured, the prefect."

"Everyone, according to the order of the imperial court, starting next year, I, Fuling County, will be responsible for the daily expenses of the Yong'an Corps together with Badong County. So after the Chinese New Year next year, I will go to Badong County to pay a visit to you. The general also agreed on the amount of money and food that Fuling County will hand over to me next year. Then I will return to CD to report on my duties. When I am not in Fuling County, the county affairs will be dominated by Chengzuo, and the military affairs will be dominated by Yongbo. Please continue to fulfill your duties.”

"I will obey the prefect's order!"

……

It was late at night, and the backyard of the prefect's mansion was still lit.

Qiao Qiang has been back to CD for several months, Guan Taishou is now a bachelor.Therefore, he directly called Guan Suo and Ma Guo to his room.

"Third Uncle, my nephew would like to invite you to visit Nanzhong."

"Huh? Are you looking for someone from Mumbai?"

"Yes, the population base of Fuling County is too small. If we don't buy people from outside, after three to five years, we will definitely not have enough strength to resist the puppet Wei's war of destroying the country."

"Shan, now the great chief of Nanzhong is Meng Yan. I have a good friendship with him. The price is negotiable. However, the population controlled by the Meng family is only about 1 people, and it is impossible for him to sell us a lot."

"If you don't have enough population, go grab it! Nanzhong and further south, there are weak chickens like Fuyu and Zhenla. Five thousand yuan or fifty shi of grain per person, I will buy as much as he has!"

"We have no shortage of money and food. As long as the Fuxing Society is as prosperous as it was this year, next year our turnover will be at least hundreds of millions. But with so many people, where do you put them? Potatoes, as you said, cannot be promoted for the time being. This is Fuling County There is only so much land that can grow rice and wheat, and it cannot be expanded."

"When I return to CD this time, I will go to ask for credit for Zhang Lingxing, and then ask his father and queen to work hard to arrange him to go to Brazil County. It was originally the place where their ancestors guarded for a long time. The Badi people in Brazil County don't and the Daba Mountain there is steep, but at least terraced fields can be developed.”

"That's a way, but in this way, I may not be able to come back for two or three years. The matter of the bean flour factory..."

"It's okay, I'll transfer Guowei back to guard. By the way, let him train with Uncle Yong."

"it is good!"

"Change it."

"Prefect, please give orders."

"After the spring of next year, you will go to Xiling and find the Bu family to buy people and equipment. But you have to pay attention, the ones bought by the third uncle are based on the population base, men, women, old and young, as long as they can farm and work, they can buy them. .What you want to buy is a soldier! It is best to be an invincible army!"
