Chen Xi nodded to Guo Kai after hearing this. Indeed, he gave up a lot of things, gave up a lot of personal desires, and dealt with many things as fairly and justly as possible. Wasn't the reason also because it was worth it?
Compared with external things, the pursuit originating from the soul can drive people forward more.
"The results are still very fruitful." Lu Su flipped through the official documents and handed an official document from a newspaper in the North to Guo Kai. Most people cannot read this kind of thing, but Lu Su just handed it to Guo Kai, "
Take a look, you have contributed to this."
Guo Kai was a little at a loss, but he finally accepted the official document, which was about a test on the transportation time and transshipment efficiency of meat from pastures in the North. This test looks funny, but it has something to do with what the people in the north can do.
To what extent can we eat meat at the same price and the overall level of shared goods can be achieved?
Therefore, after the current stage is completed, testing is what has to be done.
Finally, the test report based on Bingzhou Logistics and Transportation Network was delivered to Lu Su's desk in a very detailed data template. How should I put it, it did not reach the level required by Chen Xi, but it was within the acceptable range for others.
"Is it possible to transport meat relying on supporting facilities?" Guo Kai looked at this data in surprise. Although he was not good at this before, he has always used these mathematical calculation tools in the past two years.
As time went by, I became more familiar with it.
"Look, you have underestimated yourself." Lu Su said with a smile, "Yes, it is enough. Although it has not met Zichuan's requirements, Zichuan's requirements are not considered normal for us.
, now this is already very good.”
In the past, it was because it took too long to transport and distribute it to villages, and it was easy to rot in spring, summer and autumn. In fact, if it was purely transported by road, according to the current level of the Han Dynasty, it could be transported if it was equipped with ice cubes.
To various places.
However, due to the scattered distribution of counties, it is basically impossible to form an effective transportation network. As a result, meat will inevitably rot due to high temperatures during transportation.
At that time, the Han Dynasty also considered the issue of ice cellar storage, but if it was built in each village, it was not realistic on the one hand, and the cost was too high on the other.
Although there have been ice cellars in China since the Zhou Dynasty, the manufacturing cost of this thing is too high. The construction cost of an ice cellar that can maintain the ice for a year is so high that even Chen Xi finds it unbearable, so as early as in Ji Village
When merging villages, Chen Xi gave up the ice cellar after careful consideration.
Giving a village an entire ice cellar, if nothing else, the cost alone would be enough to make Chen Xi's head hurt. Even if Liu Yan hired professionals to reduce the cost of insulation technology as much as possible, he still couldn't afford it, and in the end it had to be done.
Of.
Of course, Chen Xi had not considered building an ice cellar in several villages, but where to build it and how to use it effectively were all problems, and he had to give up in the end.
After Guo Kai came out and had the ability to optimize the point layout, during the construction of the logistics park, Chen Xi realized that an ice cellar could be built inside the logistics park.
Because this point is the optimal solution, it means that it is definitely the shortest distance from this point to the nearby village. In fact, it fully meets Chen Xi's requirements back then.
What's more important is that the basic idea of constructing something like an ice cellar is the same as that of a steel furnace. If it is built too small, the unit cost is too high. Only if it is built larger can the cost be recovered, and the cost can be recovered.
If it gets bigger, you can go up and do the cooling etching developed by Zhou Yu.
It's just that when there was no Guo Kai before, you built it too big. As an ice cellar shared by several surrounding villages, you couldn't determine the optimal location to place it, especially in a place with hills, mountains, and mountains.
The place with the river is simply terrible.
Guo Kai's spiritual talent solved this problem and the ice cellar was established. After the ice cellar was established, meat transportation was no longer a problem.
As for the problem of ice cubes in the ice cellar, that is not something Chen Xi needs to consider. Whether it is adding a few to the military service, or taking turns to work, etc., the problem can be solved. After all, only if there are ice cubes in the ice cellar, can there be affordable meat to eat.
, this is very realistic.
Therefore, after trying to build an ice cellar and clearly informing them of the benefits of establishing an ice cellar, at the end of last year, local people either cut ice cubes in local rivers and transported them to the ice cellar, or poured ice cubes in wooden barrels themselves and delivered them to the ice cellar.
After all, in the north these days, the temperature is still very low after winter. Under the leadership of the local village chief, the ice cellar was quickly filled.
However, some disharmonious things also happened in the middle. For example, five villages share an ice cellar. This village cuts more ice cubes, and that village cuts less ice cubes. When the time comes, there will be conflicts in access.
Of course, this is not because some villages are lazy, but those who can put as much ice into the ice cellar as possible are filling the ice cellar as much as possible. Ice cubes are very expensive these days. In the summer, every piece of stored ice cubes is
It's worth a lot of money.
Coupled with the technology of making ice from ice, a bowl-sized piece of new ice made from old ice in winter in summer is worth one or two cents, even if nothing is added, it is directly spring water white ice, while the Han Dynasty's five baht
Purchasing power is very stable.
Therefore, after learning that they could store ice in ice cellars, the logistics park would charge a 30% management fee for each piece of ice. The local people also carried buckets of water and set up several wooden boxes outdoors on the basis that they had nothing to do in winter.
Just a few blocks of ice one day, hauled to the ice cellar, and the next year you are making ice blocks with an attitude of money, which is equivalent to picking up money for nothing.
After all, in an era without air conditioning like the Han Dynasty, summer cooling was a big problem, so ice cubes were extremely precious in the summer. Even if they were not treated, just selling old ice would make a lot of money, and there would always be people in need.
After all, a large ice cellar can only store two to three thousand cubic meters of ice, and if this ice is really used for cooling in summer, it may only be enough for one or two large households.
Therefore, after the ice cellar in the logistics park was opened, within a few days of winter, that is, on the day when ice could be made depending on the weather, the ice cellar was full.
There is no way, no matter what era, there are always people rushing to do profitable business.
As for selling ice in summer, it has already happened this year. The ice that can be sold in Bingzhou Ice Cellar has been sold out, leaving only the 30% reserved by the logistics park for management fees.
Although people come to ask from time to time if they want to sell it, Jian Yong knows what he does, so he will not sell the remaining ice cubes at will. These ice cubes are the basis for ensuring the freshness of meat, so he has to sell them.
, isn’t that putting the cart before the horse?
Because of this clear bottom line, after the completion of the logistics park this year, Bingzhou counties have basically ensured that meat can be safely delivered to various places. This can be said to be a great improvement.
"Seeing these results, I am more confident to continue working." The pride in Guo Kai's smile was barely concealed.
"Now we have just built Bingzhou, and then Jizhou will be the big one. Bingzhou is vast and sparsely populated, so there is a lot of room for turnover. Jizhou only made a framework at that time and experienced another turmoil in the officialdom. We should handle it well." Chen Xi
He said to Guo Kai with a smile.
"Actually, what Jizhou said..." Guo Kai said with some hesitation. He didn't know whether he should say this. After all, if he really wanted to say it, it would be somewhat over the line.
"If you have anything to say, just say it. You are considered an adjutant of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and you are qualified to give opinions on such matters." Chen Xi said to Guo Kai. He also wanted to hear what Guo Kai wanted to say.
"Actually, for the situation in Jizhou, if we really want to carry out logistics construction, it is actually better to adjust the location of certain cities." Guo Kai thought about it and did not hide it. After all, he went there in the first year when he followed Jian Yong.
Jizhou, so we know the problems in Jizhou.
After Guo Kai said these words, Lu Su was the first to laugh, and then Chen Xi shook his head, "Actually, if it is purely from the standpoint of convenient transportation, what you said is correct, but it is unfortunate. This place is Jizhou.
Ah, many cities cannot be moved."
"That's it." Guo Kai nodded and said nothing more. He was indeed considering the issue from the perspective of transportation and logistics.
"Some things are already there and cannot be circumvented. We can only obtain the best result under the current situation based on the current reality." Chen Xi said helplessly.
Just like merging villages and merging villages, Chen Xi also knew that the method he used to merge villages and merging villages was not the best plan at the current national level.
It is true that integrating villages and merging villages is the most correct plan no matter what, and it is also the basis for all Chen Xi's current policy measures.
Without those large villages with more than 1,000 or even 2,000 people, Chen Xi would not be able to build many supporting facilities. Without these supporting facilities, it would be difficult for Chen Xi to manage the world, let alone to extend political power to local areas.
.
To put it bluntly, Liu Bei knew people in every village. A very important point is that the current villages were forcibly merged together by Chen Xi. Only after they became large villages did they have the foundation to support a complete militia team.
In the past situation where there were more than a dozen households or dozens of households in one village, it would be sheer nonsense to still have a militia captain leading a small militia team? A supply and marketing cooperative? And a universal education.
Assuming that there are more than a dozen households in one village, two more people eating can be fatal in an era when supplies are not abundant, not to mention supporting a militia that can hunt wild beasts, supplying schools, communicating with internal and external parties, transmitting intelligence, and building other
New industries, etc.
This all requires sufficient manpower to start. Without gathering villages and villages, Chen Xi would not be able to do anything. At the very least, it is completely impossible to extend the tentacles of the national political system to the village level. Without this hand,
Even if the family is eradicated, it will not solve any problems.
The current system of the Han Dynasty, which is said to be the Three Gongs and Nine Qings, is actually mixed with many different things, and the division of classes has gradually become clear. For the common people, it is an overall system, and for the aristocratic families, it is another system.
The systems intersect with each other, but they run in parallel.
But the foundations of these systems are all built on the integration of villages and villages. Without this, everything else is just a castle in the air. With this, the rest can have a basis for operation.
However, is it really true that Chen Xi’s merger of villages and villages is perfect?
Chen Xi didn't believe it. He could see that when the villages were merged, the location of the new villages was not the best location. Some villages were not even the best locations. Based on the current overall consideration,
Okay, the location is even a little bit cheating.
But can Chen Xi make adjustments one by one? It is completely impossible. He can only make mistakes and make mistakes. Unless the location of some villages is really cheating, he will make adjustments and leave the rest like this.
"It is impossible to adjust one by one, unless there are major problems with the layout." Li You also explained to Guo Kai, "And such major problems must be solved in such a way that there will be huge benefits."
Make adjustments, otherwise you can only make do with it."
It is impossible to move. Chen Xi can no longer move Linzi City several miles away like when he was in Mount Tai, when Fazheng was the Prime Minister of Qi and gave an order.
A large part of the reason why Fazheng was able to do that at that time was that Fazheng was strong enough and people could control the local bureaucrats locally. If it were someone else who moved this place, even if there were benefits in the future and the benefits were visible, I'm afraid there would still be no success.
It collapsed before it was moved.
To be honest, even in the heyday of the Han Dynasty, there were not many civil servants at the level of Fa Xiaozhi. Don't look at this guy, he is a real boss.
Guo Kai nodded as if he understood. He had never experienced political struggles and had always just worked. Naturally, someone would handle other matters for him. He had never considered how much impact urban relocation would have on the local area, and what impact it would have.
How many benefits have changed.
"But as for Jizhou, I do know that one city will definitely have to be moved." Chen Xi said with a smile, and Li You nodded expressionlessly upon hearing this, Yuanshi City will definitely be moved.
"Shengzhi, after you arrive in Jizhou, remember to go to Changshan County and have a good discussion with Governor Gu. Although he has already chosen the location, after the new county governor's office is selected, other county offices may also need to be adjusted.
You can also help him adjust to the optimal level." Chen Xi warned Guo Kai.
After Gu Xi got the money from Li You, in addition to building roads, the only thing left was to move the city. The goal was basically to move to the Hutuo River, the location of Shijiazhuang in later generations, the road connecting Bingzhou and Youzhou, and become Northern Logistics
Distribution center.
The plan is well done and the money has been obtained, but it has not started yet.
If it had been anyone else, Li You and Liu Ye would definitely have sent people to find out what was going on, whether the money had been lost or there was something wrong with the design. However, since the prefect of Changshan was Gu Xi, that person's moral level was too outrageous.
They pretended not to have seen it.
It is estimated that Gu Xi has money and life and wants to do his best, but he can't find the best layout, so he can only wait for Jian Yong to come over.
The main group of eight years ended yesterday. I am sad. Taotie has rebuilt a new main group. If you need to join the group, you can search the main group. Sigh.
