"Tell me, what's the difference between counting cattle into the valley and your method of dividing the fields?”
Cao Cao's attitude was obviously much better now.
Because Xu Zhen's few words had already made him feel that he was in a different light. It was mainly because he had led the topic to a new angle.
Change the policy of administration.
Perhaps it would work.
"Yeah, Bowen, please explain in detail. I don't understand!”Xi Zhicai's eyes widened. Although he was still skeptical, he was madly hoping that Xu Zhen really had a way.
Because this matter was too important.
This wasn't a problem of the battle of strategists. The main problem was that if they couldn't solve the problem of food, housing, and labor for these 300,000 people, they would definitely become a burden.
There was no other reason.
In the camp, there were only 70,000 Qing Zhou soldiers, but there were more than 200,000 family members.
If their families were around, the soldiers of Qingzhou would not be afraid of death on the battlefield. If they were timid and afraid of battle, their families would naturally not live in peace.
With their thoughts entangled, these 300,000 people would become burdens.
If he wanted them to return to him, he first had to let their families live well and then make them rich. Only then could he increase the efficiency of the army.
There were many difficulties and a long way to go. Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu had discussed these plans many times. It could be said that they had thought too much.
However, he still could not get any results.
" It's very simple. We use the cattle to pay taxes. If we lend the cattle to the people, we must pay the full amount of tax every time. If the weather is bad and the people can't afford to pay the grain, they will suffer because of this. However, if we divide the land, we will contract the land to the people. We will lend the cattle, farm tools, and seeds. After that, we will divide it according to the harvest of the land. The rest can be taken back by their families.”
Xu Zhen smiled at Cao Cao and said confidently,""In other words, let the people contract the land and be responsible for their own profits and losses.”
"This, will this work…"
"Take them home?"
Xi Zhicai muttered two sentences in a row, which contained the disbelief in his heart at this moment. However, after saying this, he was suddenly stunned.
Then, he fell into an indescribable shock.
This, wasn't this what the lord said…only the hearts of the people were the most important in the world.
The heart of the people was the place where one's heart belonged.
Food, farming.
Since ancient times, the people had lived on this. It was precisely because of the chaos of war and the collapse of the country that they felt like duckweed and had no one to rely on.
That was why he was homeless and no one knew where he went.
This method of dividing the land probably allowed them to be the owners of the land themselves. They only needed to farm to pay for the money they borrowed from the cattle and farming tools.
If this continued, living in Yanzhou would naturally feel like living at home, and he would no longer have too many thoughts in his heart.
This was a good thing.
This was a great thing. In this way, this arrangement was not to give them food and beg them to make Yanzhou their home, but to make them treat Yanzhou as their home.
Together, we will strengthen the prosperous land of Yanzhou.
With such a grand occasion, why worry about the people's hearts?
"Hahaha…"
" Hahaha!"
Cao Cao suddenly let out an incomparably carefree laugh, and then drank the bowl on the table in one gulp. It was obvious that he had thought of everything that could only be thought of by an actor.
This was a great feat to win the hearts of the people.
At this moment, Xi Zhicai suddenly stood up and walked solemnly to the front of Cao Cao. Then, he folded his hands and prostrated on the ground. He said loudly,"Lord, I think that not only can Bo Wen not be the Lord of Duty, he needs to be put in an important position!”
"Bowen is ranked last on the Advisor Heavenly Ranking, everyone knows that! Now that he has come to join us, he should be entrusted with an important task and tell the strategists of the world that the lord has ignored the heart of the Heavenly Rankings and is thirsty for talents. When a wise man comes to join us, he will definitely be entrusted with an important task!”
"Moreover, Bowen's knowledge is definitely not as simple as the last place. There must be something wrong with this ranking. Liu Xuande lost his talent, and the lord entrusted him with an important task.”
Xi Zhicai observed for a long time before he finally said these words of exhortation.
It made Xu Zhen look at him in a new light.
She had thought that he only knew how to strategize, but it turned out that he also had such foresight.
Cao Cao's smile slowly faded as he stroked his beard and nodded slowly.
"That's right. This is how it should be.”
"Bowen, what do you think?"
Xu Zhen cupped his fists and said," I can build an army and use it to open up wasteland. I can also train soldiers and lead them. As long as my lord gives me permission, I can open up wasteland in Yanzhou. This way, the army and the people can open up wasteland and accumulate military resources. We can attack Xuzhou after the autumn harvest next year."”
"Attack Xu Prefecture?"
Xi Zhicai was stunned.
Why?
Cao Cao's heart skipped a beat, but he soon smiled.
Did he know that I was going to attack Xuzhou?
"Why do you think I want to attack Xuzhou?"
Cao Cao asked the obvious and looked at Xu Zhen in surprise.
"Xun Yu isn't here today. Is he writing a denunciation?" Xu Zhen asked with certainty.”
Xi Zhicai was enlightened." I see!! Xuzhou deserved to be beaten! Tao Qian coveted the tens of thousands of gold properties of the Old Master. Such a sinful person could not be ignored! That's right, if the denunciation was issued, they would definitely fight next autumn!”
"The Old Master is so honorable. He was once the Grand Marshal of the current dynasty and one of the three dukes. Tao Qian of Xuzhou actually secretly sent rebel soldiers to kill people.!”
"Lord, I will return to the army and inform the soldiers of this matter!”
The corners of Cao Cao's mouth curled up.
Wonderful.
Whether it was Xu Zhen, who was at the bottom.
He was also the 13th opera talent. He interacted with the two of them so well. With such talents, he did not have to worry about the world being uncertain.
Liu Bei, ah, Liu Bei, you won't be able to enjoy this farming strategy. I thought that you had the insight to see through people and would be a strong opponent in the future.
It was a pity that his taste was not good enough. He actually abandoned such a talented person and even sent him away with 50 yuan.
How humiliating.
Now that I have this person under my command, the heavens are truly helping me.
