Therefore, at present, more than 10 billion supplies must be collected on the market no matter what. It is not that these more than 10 billion supplies are enough to repay, but that these more than 10 billion supplies can be safely accepted by the people and soldiers under the rule.
The fact that gold on hand can buy supplies, there is no need to run on it.
As long as there is no run on the money, there will be opportunities for turnover in the future. And only if you believe that these things are money, can you have the concept of paying back money. Otherwise, it is pure nonsense.
If you really want to repay money to the people and soldiers, you must first make sure that what you repay is money to the people and soldiers. This is what Liu Ba told Cao Cao before he was sent to prison.
This is why we don't give gold bricks directly, because gold bricks can't solve any problems, but will further cause the situation to be chaotic. Therefore, we must first confirm that gold bricks can buy something before we can use gold bricks to return it. Otherwise, we can only use
Maintain stability of the physical object first.
After Wei Zi understood this, he took out his most precious treasure and went to Chen Xi to exchange for supplies. Only when Chen Xi's supplies were in place, those gold bricks could be used as money. Otherwise, if the gold bricks were distributed, the supplies of Cao Cao's forces would be bought.
Empty, then Cao Cao should be hanged again.
However, Chen Xi is unwilling to use the emergency reserves, so there is no way to extract such a large amount of supplies. As for where to get them from other people, to be honest, there is no other person in the entire Han Dynasty who can produce such a large amount of various materials in such a time.
Supplies.
"Sure enough, he doesn't agree." Chen Gong sighed, "I knew it would be like this when I came here. How about this, you come with me again. I don't know if my so-called priority can be used."
Wei Zi didn't know why, but since Chen Gong opened his mouth, Wei Zi still followed.
As two of the earliest civil servants under Cao Cao, they actually had a good personal relationship. Wei Zi could understand the reason why Chen Gong ran away back then, and now that Chen Gong is back, Wei Zi has been communicating with him in private.
Make good friends with Chen Gong.
"Chen Hou." After Chen Gong entered Chen Xi's home, he cupped his hands towards Chen Xi who was sitting in the main seat.
"I have a headache." Chen Xi felt a headache when he saw Chen Gong coming.
"According to the regulations back then, I can withdraw it in advance, right?" Chen Gong looked at Chen Xi and said seriously. Chen Gong has not used this thing for so many years, but Chen Gong has studied it to some extent, so he knows how to sell it.
Repaying money for this thing is the stupidest choice. The most correct way is to intercept the output of your own industry as a major shareholder in advance, and then use future profits to repay...
What the heck, this is actually a backdoor, opened to the top members of Liu Bei's power represented by Chen Xi. As shareholders of the entire state-owned industry, even if the ratio is 0.001%, they are the de facto major shareholders.
These major shareholders have certain rights to withdraw from the company's output, and because they are shareholders, they have absolute priority. Moreover, they retain their own property and can use share dividends to write off the accounts in the future. As long as the company is expanding, the future will always be better.
It is cheaper now, and there is no interest for such shareholders, so even if it is just a certain priority, it will be very scary.
"Yes." Chen Xi nodded.
"I can use external money to use the priority, right?" Chen Gong said again.
Chen Xi thought for a while, "Yes, but only this time. This was a complete accident. When I set it up, I never considered this method. I considered the situation that they had become princes themselves. I didn't think about it.
to live in your situation."
"Withdraw me 12.4 billion in supplies, and I'll pay the bill through Guangtong Canal." Chen Gong said expressionlessly, while Chen Xi was silent for a while and looked at Wei Zi.
"There is also Tongji Canal." Wei Zi said quickly. He didn't know what trump card Chen Gong used, but Chen Xi's words clearly agreed to Chen Gong's request.
In this case, there is no need to create any complications. It was previously agreed that Tongji Canal and Guangtong Canal will add up to 12.4 billion, so the total amount will be 12.4 billion. There is no need to go back on it.
"Tongji Canal is in my hands." Chen Gong exhaled and said, "Can you give me a way to survive? I always feel that Ah Ma still has hidden dangers now. After all the replacements, I am afraid that there will be problems later, and the emergency reserves are all gone.
If it is used, then there should be some left. Let’s save people until the end. To be honest, I don’t understand how Liu Zichu’s big trap will end this time, but I think I understand.”
Chen Xi was thinking and evaluating. Guangtong Canal is actually the core waterway from the Yellow River to Chang'an. This waterway is still not high at 12.4 billion, but before the two were packaged together, now Chen Gong only gives one, Chen Xi is somewhat hesitant.
However, Chen Gong is indeed on to the point. Since the emergency reserve has been used, the problem must be solved. If both Tongji Canal and Guangtong Canal are given to Chen Xi, this thunder is not the same, and Cao Cao cannot come up with the corresponding value.
To save his life, Chen Xi couldn't go down the steps to save himself, otherwise he would be digging a hole for himself.
"It's not that Tongji Canal won't give it to you. It's just that in case this supply of supplies has passed and the problem hasn't been solved yet, and the next batch of supplies is needed, or you need help, I'll give you a price to prepare. Of course, you can think of it as a step.
"Chen Gong didn't hide it at this time. He just felt that the matter was not over at this point. "Of course, if the problem is solved later, Tongji Canal will still be yours."
Chen Xi nodded, indicating that he could accept it. Indeed, since the emergency reserve has been used, the problem must be solved, otherwise the reserve will feel weak, and once this thing feels weak, then the future
When reserves are used, they will become inertial, which is a complete minefield for the economic system.
"That's okay." Chen Xi nodded slowly, accepting this fact.
"Then let's approve the supplies now." Chen Gong sighed and said, and then motioned for Wei Zi to sit down too. This matter was settled. As for protecting Liu Ba, Chen Gong knew clearly who the people were who wanted to kill Liu Ba. He
If you can't protect it, those people's losses will be too great.
Chen Xi nodded and informed his bodyguard to take his seal to the Government Affairs Office, which would then notify the Roman ambassador staying in Chang'an.
"It's almost time. Go to the Government Affairs Office to meet the Roman envoy, and then discuss with him how to withdraw 200 million denarius in supplies from Rome." Chen Xi sighed and said.
"Does this mean that 6 billion supplies can be mobilized without using emergency reserves?" Chen Gong looked at Chen Xi and said with a strange expression, then looked at Wei Zi and thought this was really miserable. It turned out that there was no need to use it at all.
Contingency reserve.
"Ah, the Roman Empire is also one of our reservoirs." Chen Xi said very matter-of-factly. Since the two sides have mutual trust in trade and military affairs, and the scale of international trade between the two sides is large, and the Media Trading City is almost shared by both sides, then the emergency withdrawal
Roman supplies are also available.
In fact, under the current situation, withdrawing supplies from Rome is the fastest and most effective solution. It is impossible for the supplies from the Han Dynasty and the Central Plains to be transported to Central Asia in a short time. The most effective solution is actually to use supplies from Central Asia.
Wei Zi's face was dejected. He thought that Chen Xi didn't want to use the emergency reserve, and Chen Xi used this as an excuse to refuse. Wei Zi could accept the reality. After all, Chen Xi didn't use the last five-year plan, and it's very unusual that he still doesn't use it now.
normal situation.
As a result, the current exchange between Chen Gong and Chen Xi made Wei Zi realize that Chen Xi did not need to use the emergency reserve at all. There were other solutions, but they were not qualified to let Chen Xi do this, but Chen Gong was.
Wei Zi couldn't help but think deeply, is Cao Cao's qualifications for Chen Xi not as good as Chen Gong? He represented Cao Cao, and the result was not passed.
In fact, Cao Cao may be more qualified than Chen Gong, but Chen Gong knows the rules of the game and knows the cheats. Therefore, in the rule-based game of Han Dynasty, Chen Gong can make emergency calls if nothing goes out of line.
The resources are greater than Cao Cao.
Of course, as Chen Xi said, when I opened the back door, I didn’t consider this possibility. When I encountered you acting so unconventionally, I, the referee, didn’t say anything the first time I saw it, but there will be no next time.
Already.
But even so, Wei Zi was still astonished by Chen Gong. Chen Gongtai was really capable. He actually had special means to convince Chen Xi!
"What does it cost to use this method?" Chen Gong glanced at Wei Zi and then looked at Chen Xi. He did not think this kind of thing was simple.
"Basically, the entire Media Trading City will be drained of supplies. These all need to be repaid, and using Rome's resources also requires payment. However, it is impossible for you to repay Rome's money. You need to make it clear this time.
It’s just a matter of doing nothing.” Chen Xi said very calmly.
But both Chen Gong and Wei Zi felt a chill in their hearts.
"Anyway, it's just this time. Since I agreed, I have to save Cao Sikong." Chen Xi said calmly.
When Chen Xi said this, he did not mention how to repay the supplies and money. Even if there is a certain amount of excess supplies next year, it is absolutely impossible.
According to Chen Xi's calculation method, every supply has a buyer. The shortage of 12.4 billion supplies must be repaid with extra-budgeted supplies and funds, and this money is undoubtedly an emergency reserve.
For Chen Xi, the purpose of allocating supplies from Rome is to lengthen the turnover time and avoid other accidents that cannot be dealt with during the time when this reserve is used. This does not mean that the emergency reserve should not be used. In this situation, it is wrong not to use it.
possible.
Of course Chen Gong and Wei Zi think so, and Chen Xi doesn't bother to explain, just take it as what they think now.
When Chen Xi brought Chen Gong to the Political Yuan, Zhuge Liang frowned slightly.
Again, Zhuge Liang knew very well that Chen Gong and he were not the same person. He wanted Cao Cao to die reasonably, while Chen Gong wanted to torture Cao Cao, not let Cao Cao die. The two of them could do it while Cao Cao was alive.
Cooperate, but when Cao Cao is really about to die, there is no way to cooperate.
According to Zhuge Liang's estimation, if Cao Cao is really going to die one day, but Chen Gong can save Cao Cao, then Chen Gong will definitely save Cao Cao. And if Zhuge Liang can save Cao Cao, unless the country's justice requires Cao Cao, from a personal perspective, Zhuge Liang would rather
Cao Cao died immediately.
Therefore, at this time, when he saw Chen Xi and Chen Gong coming to the Political Yuan, Zhuge Liang's happy mood was somewhat not so good. Is this Chen Gongtai trying to save Cao Cao?
"Gongtai, long time no see." Zhuge Liang stood up and saluted Chen Gong.
"It's been a long time indeed. Kong Ming is about to become the third prince." Chen Gong said with a smile, as if he didn't notice Zhuge Liang's hostility.
"Okay, have you notified the Roman envoy?" Chen Xi glanced at the two of them, interrupted any subsequent intrigues, and looked at Fazheng and asked.
"We have been notified. According to the distance, we will be here soon." Fazheng said casually, and at this time, the new envoy from Rome, Grius, had already appeared at the Government Affairs Office.
When the Han Dynasty invited Roman envoys, they were generally more serious, either from the government affairs office or the court. In other places, they were generally not called Roman envoys. It can be said that the standards given were very high.
After Grius arrived, he saluted everyone one after another. It was obvious that he had been living in Chang'an for a long time, and the etiquette was no different from that in the Han Dynasty.
"That's it, Grius, we want to use your Roman supplies in Media, and even in the eastern border counties, to support our manpower in Central Asia. And because of the turmoil in Central Asia, the local opposition to Rome
The export may need to be postponed." Chen Xi said to Grius sincerely, "Of course we will pay commission for these."
"It's really hell. I can't believe it. Could it be that the sugar we purchased in the Kandahar area can't be delivered on time this year?" Gelius replied in somewhat stiff Chinese. He didn't pay much attention to whether the supplies were transferred or not, but buying
He is very concerned about sugar because he is from the Eastern Province and he has also invested in this thing.
"Yes, it cannot be delivered on time, but compensation will be given later. There is currently turmoil in Central Asia. Many industries have been damaged and cannot be withdrawn. A large amount of materials are needed for stability maintenance, so I hope to withdraw it from Rome first." Chen Xi
An expression of deep shame.
"This is really hell." Grius wanted to curse, but he was surrounded by Han Dynasty bosses, so he shut up abruptly, "I need to discuss with Duke Ganassis of the eastern border county about withdrawing supplies.
Contact may also need to go through the Senate.”
"Yes, but please send this letter to Treasurer Pompianus as soon as possible." Chen Xi calmly took out a letter.
The content mainly explains why supplies are needed and the situation faced by Cao Cao's forces. Rome is asked to provide material support first. After the Han Dynasty transfers supplies from Chang'an and arrives, Rome can receive them directly. A list of required supplies is also attached, as well as Chen Xi's information.
The material transfer order will be drawn up by Rome, and then the Han Dynasty will send it to Media and so on.
There is a high possibility that Pompianus will pass this thing, because according to Chen Xi's understanding, the other party is also taking the industrial super-issue route, so there is a high probability that he will help.
