Profound Pure Guard

Chapter 608: upset

  Ruling the country and stewardship have many things in common. For example, when a major event is going to be done at home, the family’s food and clothing costs will definitely become relatively tight. When the event is over, the whole family can share it with the whole family.

   The growth of the old Jing Dynasty over the past 40 years is in addition to political stability, and it is also inseparable from the forty years of scraping and sucking blood from the barbarian region.

   Don't think that the slave trade is just a cost to the slave caravan and the common people will not benefit, but it is not the case. The exorbitant profits of the slave trade were also levied on extremely high taxes by the Jing Dynasty, even two to three times the general commercial tax. These taxes and fees are not directly distributed to officials as welfare, but used to deduct agricultural taxes in some areas and to build some public facilities, such as canals or wells, dams, and so on.

   Because the base number is the largest, the dividends spread to the people will not be so obvious. On the contrary, those high gates and red walls will be able to enjoy them more abundantly.

   Now that the war in the south has begun, Zuo Yuliang led the Chinese army headquarters to move forward in Wuhu, and moved the war forward again. The first string of flicks was "logistics."

   Logistics means money and food to put it bluntly. These are under the control of the Ministry of Households and exist in the treasury and official warehouses in various places.

In the past, there were serious fraud and favoritism in the official warehouses, and the rectification campaign initiated by Xuan Qingwei's Jingxi operation. The civil official group was forced to grab lots and packed up a large number of officials. Now it is not too long, so The remaining prestige of the rectification will not make the official warehouse unsightly, so the official warehouse responded quickly and not many people fell off the chain.

   The collected food, phantom stones, and military pay are currently available. Ordnance and consumables are relatively difficult, but usually there are still a lot of inventory, and some of the inventory is consumed and the output of overtime is barely able to keep up. At present, the Ministry of Households has urgently coordinated hundreds of blacksmith shops, preparing to expand the production of ordnance to cope with the huge consumption in the future.

   But compared to materials such as ordnance and animists, food is the most difficult to deal with. Because grain is not like ore that you dig, but it takes a fixed time to slowly grow out of the ground. And as long as it is a person, it is needed, not just to supply the army. Therefore, grain is also the most stocked, but it is also the largest and fastest consumed.

   Yang Yansi’s prediction is actually quite accurate. He has been thoroughly familiar with the inventory system established by the Ministry of Households for so many years. Although he is not clear about the specific figures, judging by the current situation in the south is probably not a problem.

Since late August, the southern frontier army has gathered more than half a million troops. People eat horses and chew and the long supply line consumes the standing grain stocks of beach rocks and Haixia. It is conservatively estimated that the grain stocks in these two places are the most persistent. It will be exhausted by the end of November.

   Then it needs to consume the grain stored in the official warehouses of various places. In fact, the Ministry of Households is already making this preparation. The official warehouses in various places are transporting endless grains to Tanshi and Haixia in advance. At the same time, the official warehouse system of the entire household department is undergoing frequent changes, in order to be able to meet the frontline needs most efficiently in the coming days. .

At the end of October, a batch of new grains will be produced nationwide and enter the storage stage. This is a very important node, because starting from this batch of grains, the Jingjiu dynasty will officially enter a state of total austerity, especially grain. Instead of sending the rest of the small amount of collected grain stocks to public and private grain shops according to the previous share, they will use wartime rules to distribute grain to various cities in the form of rations.

At the beginning, the common people will not feel anything, because even the rationing will not be tightened to the limit all at once, but slowly tightened by one or two cents, and the time will last for several months before it really becomes The point at which each household calculates the number of purchases per person. Of course, if the battle ahead is smooth, it is also possible that the strategy of food control will not reach this point.

   The most hit is the private food merchants everywhere. Once the food squeeze began, they would cut off their business from the root, and even now they can’t hold the grain in their hands. The Ministry of Households will forcibly purchase the grain in their hands at the average market price, so that they will be benevolent and righteous if they don’t lose money. Still want to make money? Go in a dream.

   But the largest grain merchant is the "tea" among the five emperor merchants.

   "Tea"'s main revenue range is tea and grain. Half of the tea in the Jingjiu Dynasty was in their hands, and 30% of the private grain merchants belonged to them. Today's food policy tightening "tea" is undoubtedly the biggest impact. Indirectly, it "harmed" the small group of people behind "Tea". It shouldn't sit still, there will be struggles or obstacles.

   These problems are directly on the body of Bai Changqing, Shangshu of the Household Department.

   Since the war in the south reignited, the counterattack prepared by the civilian officials was directly killed by Xuan Qingwei and lost the right to speak. The entire civil official group was inevitably carried on a "downhill road" by the general trend. The fastest computer terminal of the new 81 Chinese website: https://www.@x81zw@@

   The arrogance of the army is now showing signs of turning over and stepping on the head of the civil official. The feelings may not be deep in other places, but the Ministry of Household has always been in direct contact with the Ministry of War.

In the past, the Ministry of Defense came to report the munitions slips, everyone was cautious about being worn out~www.wuxiahere.com~ But now a small flag officer sent the slips, and the attitude is strong, saying that as much as you want, as for the financing What’s in charge of the Ministry of Defense? Is your household eating dry rice, can't it be solved?

   And I really didn’t dare to procrastinate too much. The front line was tight. If the key points were lost because of material problems, then the responsibility would definitely fall on the Husband first, and Bai Changqing would definitely be the first to lose his head.

   During the war, everything must make way for the soldiers on the front line!

  This has piled up countless troubles and troubles for Bai Changqing, the household secretary. The pressure has never been greater since he took office.

   The other chores are all okay, it's a big deal to grind it a few times, and urge it a few times. It's so amazing that the subordinates frightened and frightened them and pushed things forward. But the current food tightening strategy is really difficult to handle!

   The sound of wind has been there for a long time, but it has not officially started yet. Moreover, similar strategies have been introduced during the previous wars with the barbarians. The difference is that the degree of tightening strategy is different each time, which is affected by the situation of the war. If you play well in the front, you won’t close it too tightly inside.

   But now that the tightening has not yet officially begun, various "greets" and "goodwill" hit Bai Changqing. Even Zuoxiang Ye Lansheng gave him some cryptic hints, but these were all pretended to be confused by Bai Changqing.

   But how long can I mix? Always make a decision, right? How to choose when things come?
