Liu Ming has now left the era of showing mercy everywhere, or there are too many things involved, so he doesn't have much time to continue collecting the so-called historical beauties. Actually think about it, most of the so-called historical beauties have already arrived in his harem. Not to mention, even Sun Shangxiang is growing up under his protection at the moment. When Sun Quan was suddenly killed, Quan Suddenly taken away, the Sun family was originally going to be buried with him, but Liu Ming took the first step and brought the Sun family to settle in the north. Wu Guotai also simply did a favor and betrothed Sun Shangxiang to Liu Ming. ??Perhaps, she still feels that she has taken advantage. You know, Liu Ming and Sun Jian were brothers in the past, but now they are a generation shorter because of their marriage to Sun Shangxiang. Some veterans of the Sun family also came to the north to join Liu Ming in the later period. The only one who refused to go north and joined Cao Cao's army was Sun Ce's close friend Zhou Yu. It is said that Liu Ming did not have any deep hatred against him, and Liu Ming did not know about him. Why would he rather choose to join Cao Cao than go north? This trip to Hanxian Industrial Zone was mainly to inspect the output of each factory, which was related to his next move. Originally, the output had to be limited considering the population, but now he had to let the factory expand. Yield. As for Zhao Xue, it can only be said that he took advantage of the situation. On the one hand, he was naturally moved by Zhao Xue's infatuation; on the other hand, let's not talk about it. The woman came to the door, and he had no problem with his body and pretended to be a gentleman. The output in the Northern Industrial Zone is very good, and the rest is a matter of action. It doesn¡¯t matter that you can¡¯t please people in the military. The situation must be restored. This is Liu Ming¡¯s insistence. Half a month later, Cao Cao was in the territory. Cao Cao, who had just destroyed the Chu Kingdom, already had the confidence to confront Liu Ming. Not only did he have the population, but he also had enough capital in military methods. The navy may be the most lacking item, but it doesn't matter, the navy cannot conquer the city. , this is the mission of the Army. No matter how powerful Liu Ming¡¯s navy is, as long as the army occupies all the local forces, the navy can only be left alone and can either stand on its own or surrender. But according to Chinese people¡¯s habits, the possibility of the latter is very high. The only problem currently is economic. After winning the Chu State, they would also have to bear the mess left by the Chu State. Originally, the Chu State was determined to reform, and at least it stabilized the anger of the people. However, it will take a long time for the economy to recover. Even Cao Cao, There is no way to conjure money out of thin air. His current main sources of income are local taxes and the foreign exchange earned from doing business with India. This guy is not simple, he has directly opened up the Southern Silk Road. "If Tibet hadn't been a completely barbaric land at this time, and the plateau symptoms also made ordinary people awe and fearful, I'm afraid Cao Cao would have occupied the Tibetan area. There is no denying that Liu Ming occupies the Northern Silk Road, and the production capacity in the south is also limited, so the foreign exchange he can get is not very much, but it doesn't matter, the foreign exchange at this stage is enough for the reconstruction of the territory. Liu Ming still has three to five years before he can go south. If he manages the economy well during this period, he may be able to take the initiative. If he wants to fight or resist, he will be able to afford the war expenses. Originally, everything should be like that. Time has entered winter, and the new year is about to begin again. This time flies really fast, and it feels like it is passing by in a hurry. At the end of the month, Cao Cao is accustomed to holding a summary meeting. This is a summary meeting to discuss the quality of military and political work in the past month. Naturally, good things need to be continued to be carried forward, and bad things can be corrected immediately. As before, the civil and military officials sat down one by one, looking at the crowds of civil and military ministers below, and they also came from different forces, which made Cao Cao very proud. "Okay, as usual, follow the procedures Youruo, please talk about political matters." Cao Cao was the first to speak. "My lord, everything has gone well this month. It is rare that there have been no major disasters this year, and the people are also very satisfied with their new home. However, the public security issue must be further strengthened, especially the elderly in the Jiangdong area, and the new people who have migrated from the north. Residents will also be persecuted to some extent," Xun Chen answered truthfully. "Rural consciousness is hard to avoid. In the eyes of the old people in Jiangdong, the people who migrated from Yanzhou and Yuzhou are to a large extent a scourge that comes to compete with them for work. In this regard, local officers must do a good job Control it well. Local officials must also control the emotions of both parties. Everyone must be treated equally and must not favor or suppress one party. In addition, pay attention to the mood of the old people in Jiangdong. They are more of the old people born and raised here, including us. , both??¡®Outsiders¡¯, don¡¯t let them feel dissatisfied with us just because you are too active in work. In this regard, Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao should help you deal with it. "Cao Cao is still very concerned about this issue. He named Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao, mainly because they also represent the interests of the people of Jiangdong, or the Jiangdong family. "Here. "Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao stood up and arrived. "Is there anything else? "Cao Cao continued to ask. "Back to Your Majesty, there are no problems in government affairs. "Xun Chen saluted and replied. "Well, Xiahou Dun, there is a military problem. My good son-in-law has made any big moves recently. "Cao Cao turned to ask Xiahou Dun, the military attache. "Your Majesty, the border is very stable. Liu Ming has no intention of raising troops to go south. However, the war against the barbarians in the west is still going on. I heard that many people were plundered during this period. The slaves came back. Speaking of which, many aristocratic families here actually went north to buy a lot of orchids and came back to enjoy" Xiahou Dun first reported the current situation very seriously, and finally made a little joke. After listening to his words, no The young people showed their shyness. It was obvious that many people had bought the so-called Hu Ji. ¡°Those Hu Ji have blond hair and blue eyes, and waists like water snakes. They are charming and good in bed. They are really a gift for men. Buy Hu Ji. Ji and other things are still understandable. "Cao Cao said with a smile. "Well, everyone understood at this moment that Old Cao also bought it. "Your Majesty, although Hu Ji is good, you must take care of yourself. Besides, since Your Majesty has ascended the throne, you must set an example. It is best not to openly declare that Hu Ji is good, otherwise it will not be beautiful if people and aristocratic families all over the world rush to buy it and make it a trend. "Jiang Wan, who was in charge of the economy, immediately stood up and tried to persuade him. "I understand, I will exercise restraint. "Although Cao Cao was a little unhappy with Jiang Wan for sparing his interest, he still listened to his suggestions with an open mind. At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh, it's not good to be an emperor, and his life can't be the same as before. Freely. In the following time, the civil and military officials talked about some things about diplomacy and personnel. Finally, Cao Cao looked at Jiang Wan, the person in charge of economics under his command. "Report to your majesty. In the past few months, our economy has been very pessimistic. It can be said that if measures are not taken, the country will not be able to survive. "Jiang Wan said something harsh as soon as he came up. "Say. "Cao Cao became anxious and shouted. "In the past month, a large amount of goods from the north have poured into our south, especially the fabrics, which are extremely delicate and round. It is rare to keep warm and very cheap. This should have been a good thing, but they The cloth was so cheap that local cloth suffered an unprecedented blow. Many of our people make a living by men farming and women weaving. This means that the cloth spun by women actually accounts for a large part of the people's income. Now that their cloth cannot be sold, the people will have no livelihood. If there were no natural disasters Fortunately, if there is any problem, even if they get sick, they don't have money to see a doctor and can only wait at home to die. If this continues, people's hearts will inevitably be upset. In addition, other products are constantly pouring into our southern market for free, especially exquisite glass products. Anyway, they are basically needed, but not urgently needed, but can highlight the taste of life and identity. These things absorb a large amount of our coins. Not only did they absorb it, they also continued to purchase daily necessities in the south of our country. Whether it was silkworm cocoons, basic medicinal materials, or grain, they purchased large quantities of it. In the past month, these daily necessities have increased threefold. Perhaps, this is important to the farmers. Pronunciation is a good thing, but if it is not organized as soon as possible, the result will be that most people will not be able to buy enough food, and if the people have no food, their rationality will disappear. "Jiang Wan said to Cao Cao very seriously and solemnly. "No one organized their trafficking. "Cao Cao immediately shouted. "There are no restrictions on our trade with the north. Besides, there are many things that we cannot produce in the south. The things produced in the north are well received by us, so since they have sold them here, they will naturally buy them back home. Go, as for the impact, many people are actually not aware of it yet. ??Besides, the main income of the aristocratic family is actually food and everything related to land products. If the other party raises the price to purchase it, the aristocratic family is naturally willing to sell it at a high price. "Jiang Wan shook his head. "Cao Cao finally understood at that moment that Liu Ming's revenge on him was coming.
