    It¡¯s not that silk can¡¯t be sold at a high price. In fact, the silk I bought for Rome in the past was all high-priced silk. As for the quality, that¡¯s about it. You can collect some anywhere. As long as you can transport it, the price will be comparable to gold. I guess it¡¯s better than gold in Rome.  I'm used to this price by now.  .?????? So if you really have no moral integrity, then it¡¯s the same as before. Anyway, Rome can¡¯t travel thousands of kilometers to attack the Han Dynasty. Just like the Han Dynasty, there is actually nothing that can be done against Rome. However, after Chen Xi thought about it,  Still gave up.  The main reason is that it is meaningless. Rome has really reached the limit of how much it can spend on silk every year. One-twentieth of its fiscal revenue is spent on luxury goods. Unfortunately, Rome is now in a domineering stage.  It should have been over long ago when we were playing like this.  Therefore, Chen Xi estimated that even if he sold high-priced silk, he would not be able to squeeze out more money from Rome. And if he really sold the silk at the price of gold, he would not be able to sell much silk that year. For the overall silk industry  In fact, it is meaningless.  After all, selling at the price of gold, Rome only produced more than a dozen loads of silk a year. Such a demand was of little significance to the Han Dynasty, and it would not have any impact on the upstream and downstream of the silk industry.  .  And the biggest problem is that the money basically goes into the hands of the state, and the people can¡¯t get a penny of it. Although it can still be redistributed, but think about it, there will definitely be a procurement system. With such a huge benefit, only a few things will be purchased.  , it will definitely become a quota system in the end.  Chen Xi thought about the quota system. The ones who are cheaper must be those aristocratic families. It is better to directly lower the price and increase the purchase volume to the extent that it can benefit the entire agricultural and mulberry system. These are the very few who can really benefit the people of the entire country.  A proposal with an extra hundred or ten coppers in your pocket.  After all, compared to making money, Chen Xi thinks that social stability and people's happiness are more important. Money can't be earned in full. If the people under his command have more money, it can be circulated, and the country's richer people will be able to make more money.  Be faster.  "That's roughly it. If it were Liu Zichu, it would be a one-size-fits-all approach to government affairs. Ninety percent of the money would go into the treasury, and the rest would be sent to the people." Chen Xi raised his head and said with a slight resentment.  "That's not bad." Jia Xu said calmly. In fact, the vast majority of Han Dynasty officials did not think there was anything wrong with Liu Ba's actions.  "I won't argue with you about this. Anyway, I definitely can't do this here. What should be given to the people must be given to the people. For a group of poor people, what can you get even if you collect taxes." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said, "Here I am.  I planned to finalize it after some adjustments. "I thought you would go directly to the government." Seeing this, Jia Xu did not continue to argue. No one was willing to compete with Chen Xi in terms of finance anyway, not even looking at Liu Ba.  Did everyone run away?  It's up to Chen Xi to handle this business on his own.  "It's a government-run company. Let's separate a department to take care of this." Chen Xi smiled and said, "Set the price a little lower. The state-run company buys it from the people, and Rome wants more. In this way, we can adjust some things as a whole.  "Stop, raise the prices of certain products as a whole?" Jia Xu was stunned. Although he didn't know much about economics, he at least knew that certain things couldn't be messed up.  "Zichuan, we should not study this further." Xun Tingbi, who had been pretending that he did not exist, looked at Chen Xi and said, "If anything suddenly becomes profitable, it is easy for there to be an influx, and then the output will increase greatly, and then the price will  "It's coming down." "I mean subsidies." Chen Xi sighed and said, "This money can be used to subsidize some agricultural products and support them. Prices cannot be directly adjusted. They can be controlled in other ways.  Arrange the overall industry more reasonably." Xun stopped talking when he heard this, took the official document and started to review it. He was not familiar with this kind of thing and did not want to speak in this aspect. Chen Xi could finish it with confidence.  "Using this method to control the country's overall agricultural output." Liu Ye said thoughtfully, "It is a good way. No one dared to do this before. Although everyone knows that low grain prices hurt farmers, no one dares to do this in this way.  "Try to control it like this when the time comes," Chen Xi nodded and said, "Although the government will inevitably take away about half of the profits, the remaining half will be used by the people.  Yu Min." Chen Xi thought for a while and said, "I'll have someone investigate this later." "It's up to you. There is a clear gap between us and you." Lu Su glanced at Chen Xi.  Said very calmly.  "Just leave it to me. Anyway, it will take at least half a year for both parties to negotiate and purchase. I still have time to investigate and sample and make some adjustments to the industrial structure, not to mention that we are not alreadyHave you established many large-scale government-run farms?  It has a mediating effect in itself.  "Chen Xi said with a hint of pride. "The good thing about the downstream of history is that many successful and timely measures have been verified by time. If the execution power is sufficient, they can be implemented step by step. There is no shortage of Han Dynasty at present.  The country has good reputation and no shortage of execution ability. There are many capable ministers and officials. As long as Chen Xi has the right plan and these people tinker with the plan, they can come up with a plan more suitable for this era. Therefore, many things can be done.  It becomes very easy to get up. ¡°You just have to know it in your mind.  Lu Su said without raising his head, "Speaking of which, you should have settled all your own affairs. The minting side is just waiting for the new five-baht coins to be minted, and you are ready to exchange them, right?"  " "Yes, as for other things, I have basically taken care of them.  Chen Xi said proudly, "But I'm going to ask Ye Tiaoguo what happened."  ¡± Ye Tiaoguo is a small country, a country that Chen Xi has only a vague impression of. Even based on Chen Xi¡¯s impression of history books, he can¡¯t even think of the location of that country. This shows how useless this country is in this era. However, in this era,  Not long ago, envoys from Ye Tiaoguo came to submit a petition. However, due to special circumstances, this country has not come to the Han Dynasty for sixty years. Moreover, when it submitted the petition that year, it was said that the distance was too far, so the Han Dynasty was not.  They just gave some things and did not send envoys there. Naturally, the envoys from this country need to stay in the post for a period of time. After bathing and burning incense, they can wait for the emperor of Han's summons before they can meet him. If the emperor has nothing,  If you are interested, it is not impossible to put it aside or even leave it aside for a year and a half. Well, there is no emperor of the Han Dynasty and the eldest princess is regent, so it is the eldest princess who calls. This is the same process in Rome, but because Rome is very powerful, it is not possible to come here.  After resting for two days, Liu Tong brought Rome over just before he went to court. Of course, Herodian was really surprised when he saw that the Han Dynasty was the empress. But fortunately, Rome was experienced in many battles, so what was the empress?  I have seen it before, but Herodian was quite curious about the birth of a female emperor in such a powerful empire as the Han Dynasty. Of course, Herodian was not rude in any way and sincerely expressed his blessing to Liu Tong and gave him a gift.  There is no shortage of gems in Rome, and they also brought gifts when they came. They gave Liu Tong several beautifully cut gems. Of course, Liu Tong accepted them without hesitation. For such sparkling things, Liu Tong was very happy.  Her resistance was very low, and she was naturally very pleased with the Roman envoys. In fact, Herodian's gift of gems was really a temporary idea, because the impression was that the Egyptian empress had no resistance to this thing last time, so Herodian did not.  He decisively replaced the originally prepared gold crafts with gemstones. The effect was excellent. The level of mathematics and carving technology in Rome was basically second to none at the same time, especially the carving technology, which was invincible in the world.  The cutting level of gemstones of the same period seems to be comparable to that of Rome, except for Kushan. Naturally, the six gemstones given to Liu Tong as gifts were all perfectly cut, although due to the craftsmanship and quality.  Due to the limitations of mathematics, it was impossible to achieve the weird cut of eight hearts and eight arrows in diamonds, but Chen Xi¡¯s visual inspection showed that the six gemstones reflected almost all the light. At that time, Chen Xi¡¯s first feeling was that they were Romans.  His mathematics skills were unexpectedly good. Of course, Liu Tong's eyes were probably only filled with gems at that time, but fortunately he was not embarrassed. Then Chen Xi secretly prepared to find professionals to get some stones from Northern Xinjiang.  Come back and ask a mathematician to do the calculations and cut them into eight hearts and eight arrows. Anyway, those shiny things are completely worthless in nature. Chen Xi doesn't feel bad if they are cut up, and the mine in eastern Siberia is casual.  It would take thousands of years to cut it, so Chen Xi thought about asking someone to bring back a cart and practice their skills. The Roman gemstones reminded Chen Xi that women like such shiny things, and diamonds are shiny.  In addition to the material, the reason mainly depends on the cutting degree and the degree of reflection. If you practice with a lot of worthless stones, sooner or later you will be able to cut out what Chen Xi wants.  When the time comes, you can use it to please your wife, fianc¨¦e, and eldest lady.  After all, until now, Chen Xi has not seen Zhen Mi as Cai Yan expected. He has indeed hurt Zhen Mi badly enough. Fan Jian also asked about it and hinted that Chen Xi should comfort Zhen Mi. But now  The problem is that Zhen Mi doesn't show up at all.  Thinking about the difficulty of poems and songs, Chen Xi thought it would be better to cut diamonds or gems to please. At least the latter is more reliable and has high universal applicability.
