Liu Bei sent a copy of all the news informed by the Yuan family and the Sun family to Chang'an. After all, it was really necessary to investigate the Huns, even if it was false news, it was worth investigating.
"Ah, what the hell kind of news is this?" Chen Xi sighed after reading the secret report that Guo Jia threw over. Everyone was stunned. The Huns are alive again?
"The information sent by the Romans is still trustworthy." Guo Jia nodded.
"Look at what's going on here. Didn't the Huns just die? According to previous experience, even if you want to resurrect the corpse, wouldn't it take twenty or thirty years? Is it ten years this time?" Chen Xi said with a headache. This information was handed to Li You.
The Han Dynasty defeated the Xiongnu not just once or twice. The problem is that after each defeat, the Xiongnu came back again within twenty years. Over and over again for more than three hundred years, the Xiongnu continued to resurgence.
Therefore, in the previous battle in Northern Xinjiang that killed the Huns, the Han Dynasty could not guarantee that it had really solved the problem. Even if they had several tomb beasts, a bunch of messy seals, and even the so-called truncation They have tried all the national luck stuff, but if they really killed the Huns, the Han Dynasty still has some doubts.
"It is recommended to send a fleet to investigate." Li You just took a look and came to the conclusion. After all, it was news from the Huns. If you don't keep it true, you have to go and check it out. Compared with other times, you are a little more suspicious. When considering the state of one's own family, just treat it as if nothing happened and just muddle along. The Xiongnu is more superior.
"Arrange a five-hundred-person reconnaissance team to confirm." Zhuge Liang also meant the same thing after reading it. The Huns were dead or not. The Han Dynasty had seen the other party fake corpses many times, sit-ups in the coffin, rise up after uncovering the coffin, etc. , there are still some doubts about whether the group was destroyed in the Battle of Northern Xinjiang.
Even though the Battle of Northern Xinjiang was almost an important legal basis for these important officials and the new generation of princes, when it came to the possibility that the Xiongnu was still alive, everyone present calmly considered this possibility. Not to mention that the Xiongnu had PTSD towards the Han Dynasty. In fact, the Han Dynasty also treated the Huns in the same way.
"It just so happens that there is a reconnaissance team coming back from the Ganges River. We can select people from them to form a team." Lu Su also said, this group of people really thought that the Huns were still alive, and even if it was false news, they were ready to investigate it.
"Then let's organize it, but go as far as possible along the continental shelf and check carefully." Chen Xi also felt that it was necessary to make sure that it was better to kill the Huns as soon as possible if they were still alive. After the group of people from the Government Affairs Department collectively approved it, the matter was quickly included in the promotion plan, and it was fully equipped with manpower and materials.
"And then this." Zhuge Liang handed Chen Xi the prepared plan promotion book and material reserves, and while Chen Xi started working, he quickly asked the other party to see if there were any problems.
"Actually, I've seen this before. I just want to ask, why is it that there are still three months until the end of the year and your quota is gone?" Chen Xi asked with a headache.
In addition to the quota materials required for the tasks under their names, the Twelve Elders also have a part of the quota that they can control at will. This part of the quota is actually quite large. What is more important is that compared with those quota materials, this part is used Whatever you do is fine.
Just like the three unlucky children Sun Qian, Jian Yong, and Liu Yan, they initially used their quotas to invest in education and competitions in the hope of cultivating suitable young people. Later, they realized that some subjects were pure nonsense, so they used their resources Go into medical and health care and specialize in reincarnation.
These resources are directly allocated to these people by Chen Xi and are completely autonomous. However, not every veteran can find a suitable investment direction every year, so these resources will accumulate.
Unlike giving money to Liu Tong, these are serious resources that can be used at any time, so even if they are accumulated, there will be no problem. Therefore, if some people can't find a suitable investment direction, the resources will continue to accumulate. .
However, Chen Xi found that he had been out for a year. Not only had the resources at hand of the Twelve Elders been spent this year, but also the resources accumulated in previous years had been spent. Whatever the situation, they would make big moves this year.
"My quota has been given to Xianhe for use." Lu Su said expressionlessly, "After the Jizhou case was settled, in order to avoid hidden dangers, Xianhe first connected Jizhou's logistics network, but the resources originally prepared were not enough to fully deploy it. Open it, so let him use it."
Lu Su has a lot of resources, because he rarely uses them. Most of them are used by Ji Xiang and Xu Ning in medical technology and education, and these two people don't use much, so they keep accumulating them. And last year's big hole, In order to fill the hole, Lu Su agreed to Jian Yong, and Jian Yong directly drained Lu Su dry.
"Filling the hole for Zhou Yu, this year's naval shipbuilding plan mainly builds sixth-generation ships, and only three seventh-generation ships are planned to be built." Li You replied calmly.
Chen Xi nodded. Chen Xi could understand the situation of both of them. The problem was that what Chen Xi couldn't understand was how he could go out for a year and everyone's resources were empty.
"You have to look at Kong Ming for this." Chen Xi's eyes fell on Guo Jia, and then Guo Jia looked at Zhuge Liang with a smile. Chen Xi looked at Zhuge Liang without knowing why.
"It was because of a verification that other people were willing to give it a try, so I discussed with them and extracted their reserve resources." Zhuge Liang nodded and said.
The resources of Jia Xu and Fazheng were in Li You's hands, and Li You used them to build armaments. There was originally a lot leftover, but before Zhou Yu capsized, Zhuge Liang borrowed half of it to make mechanical parts, and the remaining half was used by Zhou Yu to capsize. After that, it was used to build seventh-generation ships.
In fact, there is nothing to say about these two parts. They both have clear targets. Li You himself knows it well. Even if Zhuge Liang doesn't call him, he will do it. However, relatively speaking, having Zhuge Liang as a middleman to handle these matters is not as good as Li You. It was much better for You to face Zhou Yu directly.
After all, even if the incident on the Ganges River was all a coincidence and accident, without any element of calculation against Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu would not be in a good mood when he heard the words "Li You" when receiving the ship. So if Zhuge Liang did it, At least the senses are relatively better.
"What verification?" Chen Xi asked curiously.
"This is it." Zhuge Liang flipped through his official documents, then pulled out a copy and handed it to Chen Xi. "I think this is very interesting. After discussing it with others, I gave it a try."
Chen Xi took the official document and opened it. It was about a social survey in the Gyeonggi region. However, compared to the previous rough survey, this one became more detailed. The leaders were also from Wang Ji and Zhuge Dan. The person was replaced by Wang Yi.
"I remember I saw this thing last year, let me take a look." Chen Xi looked at it and asked curiously, "I still remember complaining that your brother is really good at what he did. If you work hard, you will be able to do it this year." It turned out that Jing Zhaoyin took the lead.
"It's about disaster years and good years and labor remuneration. Jing Zhaoyin conducted a detailed investigation due to the heavy snowfall the year before last, and finally combined the investigation report from Taixue to produce a new report. Based on this report, we think there is It needs to be verified." Zhuge Liang explained, "And verifying this report needs to be done in a poor area, so a lot of supplies are needed."
Chen Xi nodded when he heard the words and began to read it carefully. The description inside was not too complicated. Wang Yi seemed to have thought about it carefully. Chen Xi looked at the conclusion he finally came to and found that the conclusion was basically correct.
"Jing Zhaoyin must have put a lot of thought into this investigation, looking at labor remuneration expectations in the general social environment. Chen Xi smiled happily when he looked at this thing.
Although Wang Yi's starting point was very simple, he just wanted to see how to get the greatest benefits for the Gyeonggi region, but in the end the research fell on the individual.
"I understand why you have spent all the resources. I'm afraid it's not enough." Chen Xi smiled and said that social surveys are difficult to do. After they are completed, relying on survey verification requires more funds, and this kind of directly involves the big social issues.
You still need to determine the accuracy of the data yourself based on your expectations of labor remuneration in the environment. It is normal for Zhuge Liang to spend up other people's resources.
"It's really not enough, and I even made an IOU with the eldest princess." Zhuge Liang said a little tiredly. It was really thanks to Liu Tong's willingness to support, otherwise, there would be no way to verify this matter.
Although Zhuge Liang felt that it might cost a lot to verify this when he started to verify it, when it came time to actually verify it, the funds and resources were not enough.
Liu Tong gave money to Zhuge Liang based on the idea that it was not a loss anyway, and I also wanted to see what happened. After all, Chen Xi would make up for the loss when Chen Xi came back. After all, Zhuge Liang was appointed by Chen Xi. If the heir messes up with the prince, as long as the emperor does not depose the prince, the prince will be reprimanded for a few words at most, and the emperor will still solve the matters that need to be solved personally.
Therefore, Liu Tong was not worried about losses at all when lending money and resources to Zhuge Liang.
"This is actually difficult to verify because I have calculated it before. Even if it is not very accurate, based on the social environment and the stability of the market operation, this expectation will be very stable." Chen Xi said with a smile, "But It would be nice if you could try it out yourself.”
Chen Xi put Wang Yi's report aside and was very happy. After one year of absence, this group of people had really accomplished something.
How do you describe the expectation of labor remuneration? This thing is actually quite counter-intuitive. Intuitively speaking, it should be that if prices rise rapidly, labor remuneration should also rise. If the cost of living rises, labor remuneration should also rise, etc.
However, no, this thing is often the other way around. That is, when prices are rising desperately, labor remuneration will not only not rise, but will also decrease. When the cost of living continues to rise, labor remuneration expectations in the market will even decline. .
Because what determines labor remuneration is not something strange like price at all, but the expectations of social groups for the social environment.
To put it simply, society tends to be stable and the economic growth rate is stable. People can clearly feel that when the society is moving forward and everything is prosperous, prices will not rise too fast, but labor remuneration will increase significantly and market opportunities will increase significantly. Individuals' expectations for themselves will continue to increase, and they will have the courage to try and take risks, creating more opportunities.
Therefore, at this stage, society's overall labor remuneration expectations are constantly increasing, but the price growth rate will not be too obvious. Even if it increases, individuals will not feel it too obviously.
On the contrary, society tends to be turbulent, economic growth slows down, or even declines, and people have doubts about the future social development. When there is a social recession, prices will rise rapidly, and labor remuneration will even drop significantly.
In this social environment, individuals' expectations for themselves will also decline, and they will become more conservative in taking risks and attempts. Labor remuneration will further decline, and then a vicious circle will follow.
To put it bluntly, when the social situation is good, capital is withdrawn, capital is withdrawn, average remuneration is forced to increase, and the income of ordinary working people increases. But when the situation is bad, ordinary working people have to withdraw money if they want to live. At this time, capital The trend of risk-taking has dropped, not only not taking risks, but also tending to be conservative, layoffs, lower remuneration expectations, cost sharing, etc.
After all, the situation is good and there will be bigger rewards in the future. In order to eat more, you can accept larger salary expenditures. But if the situation is not good and your expectations for the future decrease, then the core is not how to eat more, but how to survive. It’s a cold winter, so a series of layoffs and salary reductions are inevitable at this time.
After further layoffs and salary reductions, new recruitment attempts have to be made in order to survive. As the number of people in need of work increases, the companies that provide jobs further shrink due to lower expectations for the future of society, and working people have to quit in order to survive.
At this time, the problem of rising prices will also be exposed due to monetary tightening, which will further weaken the social environment and eventually lead to a new vicious cycle.
Chen Xi is very aware of this issue, so he has been increasing investment from the national level, raising social expectations and making the Han Dynasty optimistic about the future of the Han Dynasty.
Precisely because they are optimistic about the future of the Han Dynasty, both parties who provide rewards and those who receive rewards will not get too entangled in many details, because they both believe that the future is promising, so they can accept temporary losses.
This is also the basis for Chen Xi's control of the Han Dynasty. Compared with means such as materials and vouchers, whether the people think highly of the country is more important in terms of national policies and development.
After all, the national government actually has no savings to speak of. All its disposable wealth comes from people’s consumption and taxes, so there is never any government footing the bill. All policies, expenses, and seemingly free activities are all The people themselves are settling the accounts for themselves.
Therefore, the economy at the national level is not so much the operation of the economy as it is the people's recognition of the country. It is not the success of policies but the success of people's hearts.
