However, after taking a quick look at the other civil servants under Liu Bei's command, I found that they all had an expression of "I knew it would be like this", and the other civil servants knew what was going on.
Liu Bei's group of people are not afraid. What are they afraid of? In addition, Chen Xi has been working for so many years. Liu Bei's power is getting stronger day by day. What's more, they are not blind. Chen Xi's outline is completely fine, even if it is less.
If something is going to cause a big problem, they won't be able to see it.
Of course, such actions may be restricted by others, and they can see it, but Xun Yu is ready to join forces, so it doesn't matter, while Zhou Yu listens carefully, absorbs the nutrients, and uses it as a reference later. After all, at this time, Chen Xi was really
effort.
"Jia Wenhe, you are here to do animal husbandry, as well as upstream and downstream industries. Wool spinning, meat, feed, improved seeds, and large pastures on the grassland are all yours." Chen Xi looked at Jia Xu and said with a smile.
"I've known for a long time that you had no good intentions when you asked me to deal with Ma Zheng." Jia Xu was too lazy to say anything else and said angrily to Chen Xi.
Chen Xi didn't mind Jia Xu blocking him with these words. He just smiled and said, "I let you do this mainly because of how well you do it. Besides, don't you have three sons? Oh, you also have a disciple."
, I think they all have a bright future.”
Jia Xu was too lazy to talk to Chen Xi. After all, when he took over Ma Zheng, Jia Xu knew that he would fall into this trap sooner or later.
"Ha, you can rest assured. You only need to build twenty large pastures. There will definitely be people raising cattle and sheep in other places." Chen Xi smiled and said, "The manpower is very sufficient, which is different from last time.
You won’t lose money.”
Jia Xu glanced at Chen Xi and silently took over the job. Looking back, he merged all the people who were in charge of animal husbandry under Chen Xi under his command.
"Brother Wen Ruo, you can directly copy the system over there, and the method can be exactly the same as ours, but you need to recruit the manpower yourself." Chen Xi looked at Xun Yu and said, Xun Yu nodded, indicating that this should be the case.
"Let me make it clear first, whether it is the price of meat or other prices, they cannot be arbitrary. They must be within the appropriate range." Chen Xi warned, although he believed that Xun Yu would not act randomly.
"As for Gong Jin, you can actually raise horses in the south." Chen Xi was silent for a while and said, "I know how to do it..."
Before Chen Xi finished speaking, Zhou Yu directly interrupted Chen Xi's words, "The grasslands belonging to Bo Fu in the north will be given to you directly, and the slaves of Zahu will also be converted. The previous supplies will make up the difference, and the rest will be replaced by the ones in the south you mentioned.
Land and method of raising horses, and other suitable supplies.”
Chen Xi fumbled around and found a roll of something, and passed it directly to Zhou Yu, "There are six circles drawn on it. You can find the horse farm you want in those circles. And in the corner of the circle, you can
Find the wild horses.”
Zhou Yu's pupils immediately shrank when he heard this. No matter how Chen Xi obtained this thing, it meant that the other party was more familiar with their rule than they themselves were. This was not good news.
"Don't look at me like that. You should go see Chen Changwen. When Chu State and the Central Plains were fighting for hegemony, there were war horses. Although chariots are indispensable for oxen, they are also indispensable for horses. The Chen family has records of these horse farms." Chen Xi spread his hands.
It means you don't need to be so afraid.
[I'm so stupid...] Zhou Yu lowered his head and stopped talking. Back then, as a country of ten thousand chariots, Chu State had quite a few war horses. It was impossible to buy them all from the north. They must have been raised by themselves. This means that
They must have horse farms in the south.
"..." Chen Qun chatted and looked up at the tent roof. To be honest, he really didn't know that his family had such a thing, but if it did, it wouldn't be surprising. Back then, when he was harvesting the essence of civilization of the entire era,
, the Chen family’s large-scale harvest of Qi State was very happy.
But God knows where this kind of thing is thrown, you might see it accidentally, but it's really up to you to find it when you need to use it.
"Changwen, do you still have such a thing at home?" Xun Yu asked.
"Probably." Chen Qun smiled bitterly twice and nodded.
"It's a pity that Chen Zichuan took the lead. If you have time, you can sort out your family's classics, and you won't know what your own family has." Xun Yu sighed and said.
Chen Qun was helpless and had no choice but to agree. As for sorting out his own classics, who are you kidding? Our Chen family has the handwriting of Xunzi from your Xun family, but I don’t know where it was left. When I was young, I remember seeing it and saying, "Why is this?"
tidy?
"By the way, later you ask the craftsmen under your control to come over and give a grade." Chen Xi suddenly changed the topic and said to Zhou Yu and Xun Yu, "This will make management easier. Don't look for whatever level of craftsmen you need.
It’s easy to improve efficiency.”
"This is not a big problem, but I have heard that your craftsman rating has been criticized many times by craftsmen." Xun Yu nodded, and then said with some distrust.
"Oh, I couldn't help it. I was half-finished and was forced to fight with Yuan Gongli. Then I robbed a lot of scholars from Yuzhou. When I came back, it was a lot of trouble. I was dizzy after all the trouble." Chen Xi recalled that paragraph.
Shi Shi said helplessly.
Xun Yu and Zhou Yu both thought of the Yuzhou battle that year and couldn't help but sigh. Time really flew by.
"But this is not a problem. Gongyou has submitted the materials and a finished product will be made soon. This time there won't be as big a leak as before." Chen Xi said with a smile, "We did the rating together, so we can save time."
Something."
Zhou Yu and Xun Yu looked at each other, and then Xun Yu said, "We think it is necessary to conduct a master craftsman assessment first, and the three companies will be assessed at the same time. After that, the lower level assessments will be conducted in different places. The master craftsman standards are the same, and the others are different."
There won’t be much difference in the assessment.”
"No problem." Chen Xi nodded. He also knew the other party's concerns, but he didn't want to do it if he didn't want to. Chen Xi didn't intend to rely on this to get to the bottom of both of them. He did this to prepare for the next standardization. After standardization,
There will be an assembly line.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, weights and measures were different in various places, and Chen Xi was almost shocked. Although the deviations in different places were not big, this deviation gave Chen Xi a huge headache.
Normally, tax collection is a debate, but fights are different in different places. Chen Xi once scolded the county guards in front of Lu Su, "You bastards are bullying me. I don't understand what it means to go out with a small fight and go in with a big fight."
? Don’t you know that the ancestors of the Chen family did it the other way around?”
However, it is basically meaningless. After all, there are deviations in weights and measures in various places. The so-called inch comes from the length of ten millet grains laid horizontally. Chen Xi cannot achieve the results he wants even if he doesn't care.
For a while, Chen Xi kept thinking about how to come up with the standard unit of meter. After all, with the length, the standard weight could be calculated quickly. After the standard weight was calculated, many common units for later generations could be produced.
It's a pity that without any tools, whether it is a pendulum experiment or the speed of sound measurement to get an accurate meter, it is actually unreliable, so that Chen Xi finally let the standard length limit him and almost measured Liu Bei out of anger.
long arms, as standard length.
But just when Chen Xi was about to use Liu Bei's arm to make it a standard length, he happened to see Liu Bei stupidly playing with mercury.
Chen Xi immediately remembered an experiment, an atmospheric pressure experiment, and a mercury column atmospheric pressure experiment. He found a sunny day and passed by Qingzhou to do this experiment. The seventy-six centimeter mercury column was made, and a standard unit was instantly available.
After that, someone made a large scale, and used the internal air to toss out one cubic meter of distilled water. Although it was not pure water, the deviation was not large. A large amount of gold was directly smelted into a weight-like shape, and it was thrown on the scale to balance it.
This is the standard ton...
After this, Chen Xi succeeded in making one cubic decimeter and one cubic centimeter of distilled water in one step.
Naturally, gold weights for each unit have been made. Chen Xi also made a one-meter-long standard gold rice prototype. These things are directly cured to the extreme with strong internal air to ensure no deformation. Gold will not naturally oxidize anyway.
, ensuring that the weight and shape remain unchanged, and after a thousand years of being able to measure the speed of light, this thing will be a complete artifact.
Anyway, Chen Xi didn't say how he measured the unit of meter. When future generations can measure the unit of meter using spectroscopy, those who got the original golden rice prototype will definitely collapse.
The rice prototype with an accuracy deviation of less than one ten thousandth will definitely become one of the unsolved mysteries of future generations. Chen Xi was really happy thinking about this. It is also good to create unsolved mysteries for future generations.
"I will give you a standard unit later. The provincial taxes and other things are different. How much is your dou?" Chen Xi asked Xun Yu and Zhou Yu with some curiosity.
As soon as these words came out, the two of them were obviously a little confused. It is estimated that they had already noticed this problem, but it had always been like this, so they didn't deal with it. After all, this was a problem left over from history. Even if Qin Shihuang unified weights and measures, there would be no problem.
Ways to stop big fights and small fights.
"Are you stupid? Why do the lengths have to be measured in units of ten millet grains? Can you tell me, are the lengths of ten millet grains in different places the same?" Chen Xi asked angrily when he saw the two of them getting frustrated.
The corners of everyone's mouths twitched. They finally discovered the problem of Big Dou and Little Dou. The root cause is all in this. The sizes of ten millet grains are different, which leads to problems with the smallest unit, inches, and problems with inches.
All subsequent units are multiples of the starting deviation.
"So, first get rid of the sentence about weights and measures in the Han Dynasty that 'starts from the length of a yellow bell, takes the width of a millet, and is ninety times the length of a yellow bell, one is one minute.' Then create a new standard
Size!" Chen Xi said angrily.
All the civil servants nodded. Knowing the crux of the problem, they knew how to change it. But to be honest, they were really drunk. For such a simple thing, no one among so many people present felt there was a problem.
But having said that, some things are completely under the lamplight, such as weights and measures. China has been doing this for thousands of years, and no one thinks there is a problem.
"Then, what should we use as the length?" Xun Yu asked with a frown.
"Later, I will send a letter to Yecheng and give you the standard ruler. Then you can use this as a basis to make new rulers and distribute them to the states and counties. Remember to use the tempered gold to make an original version.
, just compare if something goes wrong." Chen Xi explained to Xun Yu and Zhou Yu, the two guys were speechless.
"With the same length, you can also use standard units to cut gold as standard weight." Chen Xi continued. At this time, Xun Yu and Zhou Yu no longer wanted to talk. After breaking through the layer of window paper, many things were actually very simple.
.
"That's it. Just do this for weights and measures. If you find it troublesome, I can give you another standard weight." Chen Xi saw that the two of them were confused and asked. In fact, by this time, the two of them had no idea.
Probably declined.
"Thank you very much, Marquis Chen." Zhou Yu and Xun Yu said somewhat desolately.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't use such a tone. My standard weights are all gold nuggets, which are worth millions of dollars. They may be worth more in the future." Chen Xi said to Zhou Yu and Xun Yu.
People immediately sneered. To the group of people present, millions of dollars are nothing!
"Zichuan, you'd better move on to the next item quickly, don't worry about this." Jia Xu greeted Chen Xi, for fear that he would continue to waste time on this. Although this is important, it does not count in the eyes of some people.
What.
"Okay, where did I just say?" Chen Xi asked.
"You talked about animal husbandry, it's time to talk about other things." Jia Xu said calmly.
"Oh, then it's time to build roads, bridges and stations." Chen Xi nodded, "Let's talk about bridges first. I want to build bridges on the Yangtze River and Yellow River. The bridge on the Yellow River is being built. Gongyou should be able to complete it by the end of next year. With that
This one, the others are relatively simple. Of course, what I want to say is, don’t demolish this bridge for me.”
Zhou Yu and Xun Yu both rolled their eyes at Chen Xi. If Sun Qian had built a bridge on the Yellow River, then future generations would never destroy the bridge unless they had a brain problem or were forced to do nothing. After all, this kind of bridge,
It's different from that kind of small bridge. If it's destroyed, you have to find someone to build it, and you might have to wait hundreds of years for one to be built.
"Oh, by the way, I remembered what I forgot to say before." Chen Xi suddenly remembered that part of his previous plan was missing.
"What part is missing?" Xun Yu asked curiously. After all, he did not see the details of Chen Xi's plan.
"In terms of the allocation of infrastructure construction and various people's livelihood investments, Zichu and Zizhong, you two know money. Come and tell me roughly how much the things I just mentioned will cost." Chen Xi smiled at Liu Ba.
Said to Mi Zhu.
"Seventy-five billion or so. About seventy-five billion." The two of them said almost at the same time. Everyone was shocked when they heard this. (To be continued.)
