    "But in reality, don't we have no money? Without the four billion yuan that Chen Zichuan loaned us, wouldn't we have no money by now?" Cao Hong is a stubborn person. He doesn't understand what it means.  When it comes to making ends meet, he only understands whether there is money or not. Generally speaking, this person is an iron rooster who can only get in but not get out.  "On the contrary, this state is actually the profit maximization. The meaning of saving money is to prepare for certain unexpected situations. The meaning of balancing the expenditure is to continue to use money to make money, and then create greater profits.  The benefits will increase, and the stall will get bigger and bigger." Liu Ba glanced at Cao Hong and said, "If you don't have money, you can just make money. There is no future for someone like Cao Hong."  "In that case, without this money, we can't do anything, can we only do it?" Zhang Xiu also looked nervous. He was still waiting to expand and pull up his Xiliang cavalry. It was not easy to rely on it.  As long as Hua Xiong didn't train his two hundred men with dual talents, Zhang Xiu was still waiting for money to expand his army.  "That's not the case. I have already calculated every expenditure at the beginning of the year. I still know when and what funds should be allocated." Liu Ba smiled and said, "This time I have no money just because,  I happened to have a loan, I just used it to spend it.¡± After that, Liu Ba explained the whole process to everyone as simply and straightforwardly as possible. Of course, after that, most people on the scene were confused and just thought Liu Ba was confused.  Ba is so powerful and so on, and people who can understand clearly know how quickly the country's strength will recover in this case, and they are obviously a lot more convinced when they look at Liu Ba.  After all, there is no point in saving money. On the contrary, it is more valuable to turn it into physical objects, and physical objects that can continue to bring benefits.  "Speaking of which, at this speed, do we have any hope of catching up with Lieutenant Liu?" Chen Qun asked slightly curiously. Although his intuition was that it was unlikely, he was still interested in asking. After all, if professionals are willing to answer  , it would be good to clear up any doubts.  "Absolutely not possible." Liu Ba said with a trembling face, "Not to mention that Chen Hou's method is similar to what I am using now, but it is better than me. In terms of time, the other party implemented it long before us.  And at that time, Chen Hou's situation was equivalent to someone always borrowing money for construction, but now it is even more unsolvable. "Liu Ba has learned a lot, so he knows what Chen Xi's current situation is.  , Chen Xi himself has become the credit principal. As long as Chen Xi's own credit system does not collapse, whether it is using fields or copper mines as collateral, as long as the current system does not collapse, money is just a number for this guy.  In addition, compared with Cao Cao's side who is still working hard to improve the upstream and downstream industries, Liu Bei's side has basically completed the construction. In this case, even if Chen Xi does not make a fuss about his credit system, the risk resistance of his own complete industrial chain  , which is also enough for Chen Xi to withdraw funds and use them elsewhere.  This is why for a period of time Liu Ba always wanted to put his own industry under Chen Xi's industrial chain. Unfortunately, Chen Xi kicked him out every time. Liu Ba was also very irritable. He leaned against a big tree to enjoy the shade. As a result,  Always kicked by the tree.  "Okay, Zichu, you are still responsible for managing the appropriation. According to the decision of all of us at that time, we will start to carry out infrastructure construction under the rule." Although Cao Cao roughly understood what was going on, he also knew that Chen Xi was basically in charge of this aspect.  There was no need to argue, but Cao Cao was still extremely confused when he heard Liu Ba say it with his own ears.  "The cement manufacturing plant arranged by Chen Hou has started operation. The cement produced every day is enough for us, and we are still slightly wealthy. At the same time, I have also obtained the raw materials, but if we want to copy it, it will probably take until next year.  Liu Ba said helplessly.  The first is a material issue, which has been solved. The material ratio is still a problem. Finally, there is a firing issue. Whether it is temperature or other special requirements, it requires multiple verifications. In short, this is a problem.  Very troublesome problem.  According to Liu Ba's estimate, based on the time it takes to bake a furnace, it would be a miracle to be able to replicate it in the next few months. If you are lucky, it will probably take until next year. If you are unlucky, it will not appear until next year.  If so, it will take even more time.  Speaking of which, Chen Xi only knew the materials and then asked people to bake them according to the materials. In short, it took a long time before the finished product appeared. If Cao Cao could copy it within a year, Chen Xi would not be surprised. But at that time, the world was united.  Liu Bei will provide this kind of thing directly to Cao Cao.  "Can it be copied next year?" Cao Cao was silent for a while, and then said, "Mobilize a group of craftsmen to start research and see if they can succeed in a short time. As for the firing kilns, one is not enough to build two, and two is not enough.  Build three." Liu Ba nodded.It seems that there is actually no need to invest in this aspect, but since Cao Cao wants to invest more in this, Liu Ba doesn't mind, just spend some money.  "How is the condition of the westbound highway now?" Cao Cao continued to ask.  "I will supervise the construction of this matter. The more than 100,000 captives of Zahu may be extremely humble because we have completely wiped out the north, and they work much harder than normal captives. At this rate, we will be able to reach the Western Region by the end of the year." Du Xi  He glanced at his calculated construction period and said.  "That's good. We have to build another highway from Chang'an to Hanzhong. Liu Jiyu can cut mountains into roads, so we can do the same." Cao Cao did not take it to heart as Guo Jia had guessed at the time.  There are many things going on, who cares about those captives?  As for Du Xi, he divided the Zahu captives into more than forty teams, each with three hundred people. On the one hand, it served as a sign and on the other hand, it was also a way to check the road conditions. It was divided into forty sections while surveying and building. The merchants traveling in the Western Regions used to walk.  The road was directly built into a national highway for twelve drivers traveling together.  "That's fine." Du Xi nodded. This kind of thing is not difficult, but in the minds of people like them, cutting off mountains will have an impact on the geomantic omen, so they need to talk to Liu Zhang before doing this.  The same thing we did at the beginning was to find a group of experts who understood the geomantic omen and geomantic omen to study carefully which mountains could be cut and which hills could not be cut.  "Chang Wen, how is the investigation of the matter assigned to you going?" Cao Cao turned to Chen Qun and asked, "What exactly is our West?" "We already have some clues. There are countries to the west of the Western Regions, and there are no countries.  "Sir, I have read a lot of classics and have basically determined that there are countries to the west of the Western Region that are comparable to our Han Dynasty," Chen Qun said slowly.  "Zixu, after the road from Chang'an to Dayuan and then to Congling is completed, how long will it take us from Chang'an to Congling." Cao Cao said slowly, he had already made a guess.  "After the road construction is completed, although it is thousands of miles away from Chang'an to Congling, if we travel with cavalry, we may be able to reach it in less than a month." Du Xi replied after being silent for a while, and he also understood the situation.  "Isn't it less than a month? If food and supplies are to be transported, will the time required to be transported be within a month?" Cao Cao smiled bitterly. He had basically determined what Chen Xi wanted to do. Is he going to invade the Central Plains and compete with the big powers?  "Actually, if we really want to talk about distance, we don't build roads around detours. Unless it's a natural desert, we can't build roads there. If we really talk about distance, I'm afraid it's only eight thousand miles. And our current cavalry,  The speed is far faster than before." Du Xi sighed extremely at this time.  Everyone else nodded silently after hearing Du Xi's words. If in the past, a fast-moving emergency report could travel eight hundred miles a day, and a cavalry regiment with one person and three horses could travel three hundred miles a day, then now a fast-moving urgent message can travel 800 miles a day.  It's possible that it can travel four to five thousand miles a day, and more than two hundred miles an hour.  As for the cavalry regiment with one man and three horses, after all, it cannot be compared with the day and night operation of urgent reporting, but there is absolutely no problem in traveling thousands of miles a day. It is not a joke to say that a large army can be launched from a distance of eight thousand miles.  Counting emergency reports and dispatching troops, the army can be deployed to Congling within twenty days. According to the empire's standards, the urgent report plus the time required for dispatching troops means that it takes more than three months for the army to reach the extreme wall of the empire after arriving at the place where the accident occurred.  In terms of standards, it's still far from enough.  Of course, asking everyone to have three horses per person is definitely nonsense, but even if it is an ordinary pack horse, according to the current situation, there is no problem in traveling two hundred miles a day. According to this calculation, even if it reaches Congling, it will only be a month and a half.  Still half the time.  "I see. No wonder Chen Zichuan wants to build a pasture in the north. Is his goal to conquer it?" Cao Cao said with a sigh, "Add roads, animal power, and improved seeds. It turns out that we have conquered it now."  "In the past, both the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty stopped at Congling. The biggest problem was the difficulty of deploying troops. For the Han Dynasty, it was not that the opponents there were impossible to defeat, but that it was caused by deploying troops there.  The loss was simply too much to bear.  Therefore, no emperor is willing to fight a meaningless war in such a distant place unless it is absolutely necessary.  For example, Chen Xi's current method is to forcibly close the distance between the two sides, and the difficulty of deploying troops has dropped to this level. Not to mention that animal power and other aspects have been greatly improved. Even if it is not such a terrible improvement, with the Han emperor's  Xin Xing will also take over the Western Regions by force.  This is the will to expand the territory that flows in the blood of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, the moment this line appeared, Cao Cao understood that Chen Xi¡¯s goal was not to continue playing dynasty in this small domestic pond.Instead of playing the game of destruction, they must play it out and let the world witness their glory.
