Now the question is.
The five hundred shi of grain is not enough.
Even, it is far from enough!
Just do the math.
Naturally, food is needed for disaster relief in Jizhou.
Now under the control of the family.
The grain market in the entire Great Xia was on the verge of collapse.
Because the aristocratic family controlled almost all the grain circulation in the Great Xia market.
After a large number of rice shops and grain shops closed under the order of the family.
A large number of Daxia people have begun to be unable to buy food.
It won't be long.
Wait until the food reserves of the people in Daxia are exhausted.
No more food can be bought.
By that time.
Big Xia is really going to be in chaos.
and so.
In this situation.
The imperial court must also step in to maintain the circulation of the grain market.
Under such circumstances, a large amount of food must also be taken out.
Although right now.
In addition to the food in the treasury.
There are more or less grains in the official warehouses and private warehouses in various places.
But if things go on like this, it is far from enough!
It can't last long at all.
thought here.
Li Ye frowned and pressed the center of his brow slightly.
Looking at He Shen again: "Now the national treasury, plus the official warehouses and private warehouses in various places."
"Heshen, I want you to tell me the truth, how much food can I get?"
Chapter 296 Otherwise, Your Majesty, You Still Want My Life
Facing Li Ye's inquiry.
He Shen naturally did not dare to have any hesitation.
Dang even came up with a memorial: "Your Majesty, the food situation in various parts of Daxia has been registered, and any omissions by me are included in it."
There is no need for Li Ye to say anything.
Xiao Chunzi at the side was already in Cong Heshen's hands.
Handed the memorial to Li Ye respectfully.
Li Ye started checking directly.
have to say.
Although He Shen is a traitor and corrupt official through and through.
But this ability is also first-class.
Among the memorials he submitted.
The food situation of Daxia has been registered in detail and summarized.
Therefore, Li Ye can see the current food situation in Daxia at a glance.
Great summer now.
In addition to the 800 million shi of grain that Li Ye ordered Heshen to purchase secretly in the treasury in advance.
There is also the food seized from them after the house raids and the killing of Cixi and Li Zhen.
Add up a total of about 1000 million stone.
In the official warehouses and private warehouses in various places, there are a total of nearly 2000 million shi of grain available for deployment.
it looks.
Seems like a very large number.
but?
Compared with the food needed by the imperial court at this moment.
In fact, it is still a drop in the bucket.
not enough!
Just relying on these grains is far from enough!
But as far as Jizhou is concerned.
The population always exceeds 600 million!
Cixi and Li Zhen ignored the situation after successive natural disasters.
At the moment, Jizhou is still safe for producers.
It is estimated that only half of the people.
In other words.
under this natural disaster.
There are at least more than 300 million people!
It is to face the risk of food shortage this time.
And among these 300 million people, those who are completely out of work and can only rely on helpers, at least 100 million people!
The rest of the people are all in need of half alms.
100 million people!
The food consumed by each person in one month is about one stone.
In other words, just for these 100 million people, the court needs to allocate 100 million grain every month!
Add to that the 200 million who are in need of half alms.
If the entire Jizhou wants to provide disaster relief, it needs to spend 200 million shi of food from the imperial court every month.
not to mention.
And that's only in ideal circumstances.
Eliminate various losses.
At least 250 million shi of grain needs to be allocated to Jizhou every month!
And that's just one month.
If the drought and locust plague protracted.
The food that needs to be spent is an astronomical figure!
not to mention.
Grain markets are out of control right now.
The imperial court also needs to transfer food to various places to maintain stability.
The food that needs to be consumed is even more than Jizhou!
A thought here.
Let alone Li Ye.
Even the people in the court at this moment can be said to be worried.
In fact.
Is the treasury rich now?
Naturally there is.
After ransacking the house and killing Cixi and Li Zhen.
Especially after the friendship donation of Heshen, the God of Wealth, the number one fat sheep in Daxia.
Don't say anything else.
The treasury of the entire Great Xia can be said to have made a lot of money.
It can be said that he is rich as oil.
Not to mention the five years of Empress Dowager Cixi's reign.
It was during the reign of the first emperor.
Rarely has the treasury been as full as it is now.
But the problem is.
The treasury is rich.
But there are more places to spend money.
Don't say anything else.
