At some point, Zhuge Liang even suspected that overdeveloped muscles would hinder the development of intelligence. Especially after Chen Xi proposed the so-called comfort zone theorem, Zhuge Liang deeply suspected that the reason why the three fools of Xiliang did not use their brains and completely abandoned the brain Yes, there are reasonable reasons.
First of all, when he was hanging around in Xiliang, although Li You was a pervert, he was still very reliable towards his own people. He relied on his own strategies to plan and seek the future as much as possible, so that most of the strong men in Liangzhou did not need it. Consuming your own limited brain capacity and going all out to unleash all your fighting power is enough to solve most problems.
After Li You jumped out of the quagmire, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry had reached another level, which was the so-called level of being able to defeat all methods with one force.
To put it simply, when everyone is fighting within the visual range, as long as the difference in numbers is not large, the three fools can ignore the opponent's composition and the opponent's command, and just act recklessly.
Except for the occasional few opponents who may not be able to bite them to death, the rough-skinned and thick-skinned Xiliang cavalry are not afraid of being beaten at all. Even if they cannot be beaten, there will not be much loss. Therefore, such a precious thing as the brain is very important to the three fools. , not needed at all.
Most problems can be solved by being reckless, so why bother thinking about other problem-solving solutions?
As time passed, Zhuge Liang recognized the true forms of the three mad dogs in the empire. Naturally, he no longer had a deep dislike for these three brothers. There is no need for people to care about mad dogs, especially when mad dogs don't bite themselves, but only bite next door. When those guys.
In addition, sometimes, some things inevitably need to be discussed. Zhuge Liang inherited Li You's mantle and obtained a large number of shares in the Liangzhou clan. Even if it was for the purpose of land washing, he would tend to protect the three fools. , after all, these three are also imperial mad dogs, very fierce. .
Although he did a lot of stupid things back then, whether it was the construction of the Yongliang water network or the suppression of one party in Congling, his performance was quite good. In addition, everyone had dirty information in the past, but it was only the dirty work of these three idiots. There is a lot of material.
After finally seizing this opportunity, Zhuge Liang was willing to lend a hand to launder the material for these three people. After all, he missed this opportunity. To be honest, there is probably no other chance.
This time when the three brothers appeared, Liu Bei and others couldn't say anything even if they met them. You must know that when Guo Si came back from Congling and Liu Bei was in the court, Guo Si was outside the door every time.
Although to a certain extent, Liu Bei is too lazy to settle the matter with Guo Si, but if the black material can be washed away and Liu Bei can pass by and Liu Bei turns a blind eye, it will really be considered a complete success, so Zhuge Liang can understand. Li You's mentality of letting Zhou Yu help.
But when Zhuge Liang received the news, Li You had arranged everything, and Zhuge Liang didn't say anything after thinking about it.
In fact, for Zhuge Liang, as long as there is a map and the scale of the map is correct, Zhuge Liang, who has now evolved to a complete body, can roughly determine the location of each spiritual talent and legion talent by relying on his spiritual talent to perceive friendly forces. , and mark it on the approximate location of the map. Of course, forget about some special talents.
But Zhou Yu is not a special talent, Sun Ce is not, Gan Ning is not, Li Jue, Guo Bang, Fan Chou are not, so Zhuge Liang can actually roughly determine where these people are, although the map is not accurate enough and these people move around. The problem may be biased, but this is much more accurate than Zhou Yu's search for someone.
By the way, Zhuge Liang learned that Zhou Yu had brought up this matter himself, so he naturally thought that Zhou Yu might have some special information or better skills in finding people.
But now Zhuge Liang understands that you call provoking trouble all over the map a special skill for finding people. I am really convinced. You are really not afraid of trouble!
What kind of attitude is this? Although I can’t find anyone, can I send signals all over the world for people to come find me? Zhuge Liang felt that it was thanks to Zhou Yu's naval guns that the caliber was thick enough and the coverage area was large enough. Otherwise, it would not be a surprise to be killed if he provoked trouble like this.
When Li You heard what Zhuge Liang said, he couldn't help but squint at Zhuge Liang. He was also negligent for a moment, mainly because Zhou Yu himself wrote a letter informing him that Li You had just come out of the imperial edict and was in the state of Yang Hu Chenghuan's knees, and he had not yet recovered.
"Where are those guys now?" Li You asked, without mentioning anyone. Although everyone knew it, it was better not to mention it.
"Here in East Africa are Wu Hou and the others. Meng Qi seems to be heading to East Africa recently, and those three are here, and Zhou Gongjin is here." Zhuge Liang pointed to the map and said.
Li You looked at the three fools and others in South Africa, and he roughly understood what the three brothers wanted to do. Most likely, they wanted to go to the Antarctic and then perform something like crossing the Antarctic.
"It's a bit far away. We still have Xin Ying who has contacted Zhou Gongjin. Send him a notice." Li You thought for a while, and he still wanted to take this opportunity to help Li Jue and others launder the dirty materials. After all, If you miss this opportunity, you may not be able to find another opportunity.
"Also, but it probably won't be used. With this kind of IQ attack that can cover the whole world, they will definitely rush over as soon as possible." Zhuge Liang shook his head.
In Zhuge Liang's opinion, Zhou Yu's method is correct. Although there are many problems, but in the spirit of "I can't find Li Jue and the others, but Li Jue and the others can receive my location, wouldn't it be great if Li Jue and the others come to me?" "There is no problem with this idea.
"You think the Xiliang cavalry are white-horse loyal followers!" Li You said angrily, "By the time they find us, I'm afraid the Battle of Ganges will be over."
Zhuge Liang was silent for a moment after hearing this. He was careless and only considered the method but not the time limit.
"I will send someone to notify Zhou Gongjin now. Even if they come in a few days, they won't be able to run too far." Zhuge Liang said, suddenly realizing that his position may not be reliable for finding other legions, but using it can It is reliable to come to Xiliang Iron Cavalry because Xiliang Iron Cavalry cannot run fast.
After confirming that it was his family that was causing trouble, there was no point in holding the meeting. Except for the female spiritual talent holders who had received the task, everyone else quickly went back to their homes.
"Jing Zhaoyin, are you okay?" Li You looked at Wang Yi who was staying here and asked strangely, is there anything else important recently?
"For the rail train matter, Xianglishi has already completed the actual survey, and they reported the data to me. It's hard for me to make a decision. At that time, Shang Shu Pushe was in charge of the matter, but now it falls on me. Some of them are not easy to finalize." Wang Yiyan said concisely and comprehensively.
At this time, the puppet show was over and no one left. Liu Tong, who was about to run away, quickly stayed after hearing this. When Chen Xi was working on the rail train, Liu Tong was watching and excitedly wanted to rent the train skin. or something, but was kicked out by Chen Xi.
Although it is definitely not possible to rent it now, if there is a chance to listen to something interesting, Liu Tong will certainly not run away. Li You saw Liu Tong sitting aside happily and did not say anything. He just listened and watched whatever he wanted. Anyway, I finished it. There is no way to make a decision on the information. If you think about it for a moment, you will know that this thing is the foundation of eternity and must be reviewed by Chen Xi.
"The rail train has been postponed for now. How is the repair of the Chidao here?" Li You asked Wang Yi. Compared with Sun Qian, Wang Yi, who is a Jingzhao Yin, needs expressways more. After all, As the most benign place in the Central Plains, the demand for goods in and out is very large, and the necessity of Chidao is very high. However, the sanctity of Chidao has been eliminated these days.
"According to the plan of the First Emperor, five of them were built first, and the roadbed was reserved for subsequent rail train reconstruction." Wang Yi said calmly.
In fact, many things can be copied as homework. The First Emperor planned and built it once, and now it is just a matter of doing it again. In terms of difficulty, it is not that outrageous.
More are being expanded and repaired along the traces of the tracks left by Qin Shihuang. Even some of the original tracks left over these days can still be used. The materials used in the wooden tracks can still support the load of the current four-wheeled carriages and continue to be used. .
After all, some of these wooden rails still retain their remains more than 2,000 years later. It’s just a pity that Chidao’s design and planning drawings are recorded by Xiang Lishi, but the wooden rails have not been maintained for hundreds or even thousands of years. The decaying primitive technology phase Richter did not have at hand.
He even wanted to ask Liu Yan to help recycle it. Although he found the relevant technology, the copied things could not resist corrosion for hundreds of years after being evaluated in the past few years. Chen Xi didn't have any good ideas for this.
After all, the loss of technology was unavoidable in ancient times. It may be included in the classics of some aristocratic families, but the family that collects this classic must know what it is, otherwise even if it is seen, it will not know what it is. , we can only wait for future generations to recover.
"Build the Tongchi Road first, and Zichuan has to come back to discuss some things. The information Liu Ziyang sent back from Qingxu makes me a little worried." Li You thought for a while and said, "Open the Chi Road from Yongzhou to Qingxu. , I remember that the First Emperor’s Chidao itself had this plan.”
"The Chi Road from Yongzhou to Qingxu? Although this has its own plan, and it also has the plan left by the First Emperor as a reference, it was not originally placed at the forefront. My previous plan was to build the Chi Road to the north first. Wang Yi asked with some doubts.
"There's a little problem with Qingxu." Li You said helplessly.
"As a place where we started, what went wrong?" Wang Yi raised an eyebrow. She had also lived in Qingxu and had a good understanding of it, so she was surprised what could go wrong there.
Li You moved his mouth, thought for a while, and decided to tell Wang Yi, because this matter was a bit strange, so strange that Li You didn't know how to describe it.
From a certain perspective, the problems encountered this time have never occurred before.
After Liu Ye and Man Chong checked Jizhou and Yuzhou, they went south and north, and happened to meet up at Qingxu. What can I say about the things they saw along the way? It made people think deeply.
Both Liu Ye and Man Chong knew something about the simple small-scale peasant economy in which men farmed and women weaved. Therefore, they took the opportunity to learn about the development of their own businesses. After seeing it, they felt that the situation was great, great. It's all a bit nonsense.
The official purchase price of grain is 150 Wen per stone, but in fact the real price of local grain is around 75 Wen. The main reason is that few people think there is a problem when buying and selling at this price.
Even when Liu Ye asked the local bureaucrats why the local grain prices were so low, the local county magistrate said helplessly that the price of grains was this price. Only the official sales price was 150 Wen, and the people's own sales were only 75 Wen. Because of the bumper harvest every year, they could Selling for 75 Wen is because the state collects half of the output of an acre at 150 Wen every year.
The local officials clearly told Liu Ye that the reason why Qingxu was able to clarify the farm property to the extent of how many acres each family had was because when the official grain harvest was 150 yuan per stone, it was collected based on the field property. If you quote me 50 acres, then I can harvest 25 acres of grain with 150 Wen.
This is Chen Xi's rule. After enough taxes have been paid, in order to equalize and stabilize grain prices, the country will collect grain according to the official official price in good years, and the actual price is 150 Wen per stone.
At that time, Chen Xi thought that if I collected half of the output per acre, it would be enough to stabilize the price of grain. Therefore, the price of 150 Wen was definitely appropriate when the people were willing to sell grain to the government.
But here's the problem. Chen Xi's talent ensures the right time, the cookies ensure good seeds, the people at the Agricultural College ensure the farming technology, and the tax system ensures the enthusiasm for agriculture.
As land reclamation continues, people's food output continues to grow. The popularity of farm tools and cattle has increased the arable area. In the end, after the official took half of the food output according to Chen Xi's pricing, Qing Xu Although this is an important grain-producing area, the price of grain traded in the market is still only about half of the official price.
It is precisely because of this obvious move by the state to provide benefits that people are very active in clarifying their own farmland, filling out reports on their own, and even wishing to fill in more reports.
After all, my family has 50 acres of land, and if I quote 20 acres, then I can only enjoy the official grain harvest price of 150 cents per stone for 10 acres. The output of the other 40 acres will only be sold on the market for 70 or 80 cents. It doesn't seem like much, right?
In fact, as a grain-producing land in Qingxu, under the premise of rotating farming, one acre of land can produce an average of four stones a year, which is actually a shortfall of 300 cents. So what do the people think? Of course, it needs to be clarified!
As for grain taxes, grain taxes are not as high as official grain prices. Even though they don’t understand mathematics, the people still know very well which one gets the most money, so they decisively choose to clarify the acres of land.
