Ran Jing held three documents that seemed to have nothing to do with each other. One after another information kept pouring out of his mind, and his face was full of horror.
"Here, does Shang Guo really want to join forces with Liao Guo and Xing Guo to reject Daxia?"
Yang Qian scratched his thigh and said a little irritably, "This is nothing new."
"Although our fertilization technology and land-fertilizing technology have not yet been popularized nationwide, our Xia country is not short of grain and grass, nor is it short of copper and iron. It's just that mining is more difficult."
"Looking at the Central Plains, the only country that has not suffered from natural disasters in the past five years is our Xia Kingdom."
Ran Jing said, "There aren't many wars in the south, so it makes no sense why they would engage in conflict with the two countries for no reason."
"The climate in the south is good, but unfortunately it is not highly developed. There are mountains, rivers and swamps everywhere. Mosquitoes tend to breed easily in these places. In addition, there are many water sources, and there are frequent floods. Even if there is no war, I believe we will not be very wealthy."
"but!!!"
Yang Gan scratched his elbow and said, "Our only serious concern is Shang Guo and Liao Guo. It seems that we really need to pay close attention to them."
Yang Gan called Xiao Yu over and told the secret servants to pay attention to the salt, iron, grain, and army dispatch of Shang, Liao, and Xing.
As the person in charge of Tianshou Division, Xiao Yu would naturally notify everyone one by one.
"Han Jingtong~~!"
Yang Qian took a deep breath, "Xiao Yu, I want this person to die, what can I do?"
"It is certainly not difficult to assassinate a foreign official in Fuyan, but our people cannot ambush inside the palace. Han Jingtong has only seen him at the city gate, and it is not yet certain whether he is really in the palace."
Yang Qian felt a little anxious in his heart. This person really belongs to Niubi Tang, and he is still so stubborn.
Ran Jing's face was complicated, "Your Majesty, Shang Guo and Liao Guo have a blood feud and have been fighting each other for many years. I don't think they will unite."
Yang Gan raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you know? There are only interests between countries, and there is no affection. If there is any, it is just a way to confuse people under the trend of interests."
Seeing Ran Jing's disbelieving expression, Yang Gan patiently analyzed, "The queens of various countries are almost all princesses of other countries, or they are the daughters of Shangqing, right."
Ran Jing thought for a moment and nodded, "Yes."
"Since we are all relatives, in theory we are one of our own. But if we look at the past hundred years, we have to fight those who deserve to be beaten and kill those who deserve to be killed. How many vassal states have been destroyed and how many royal families have been destroyed in a hundred years?"
"If we don't pay attention to these things, I'm afraid we will be next."
Ran Jing thought carefully and found out that what happened in the historical data he saw was indeed exactly the same as what the Lord said.
"Then what should we do?"
"What should I do? Salad~"
"Cold salad?"
Yang Qian spread his hands and said, "This has nothing to do with us. Don't forget that I am only Lord Wu An, not the King of Xia. If the sky falls, there will be a tall man to hold it up."
Yang Qian is strong now, but he is not strong enough to control the way of various countries to attack continuously.
No matter how powerful his weapons are, there is already a gap.
This is the case in the cold weapon age. No matter what kind of weapon it is, no matter how well it is used, it still requires manpower.
No matter how powerful the soldiers are, no matter how brave the generals are, they can only fight for a few hours.
From time traveling to now, Yang Gan has encountered the strongest army, sorry, almost none.
In this era, the Xiongnu, Jie and Yue clan were like three-legged cats, capable of harassing and sneaking around.
Do you really want to fight with the main force of Xia Kingdom? They wouldn't even dare to give them a hundred courages.
As for the time when Shang Guo and Liao Guo attacked each other, almost all the soldiers wore leather armor.
This thing can't fool Yang Qian. From the time he traveled to the present, he has never encountered the main force of the vassal states.
And I have never seen that the main armies are stationed near the capitals of various vassal states, or at the borders and other places.
The management of these garrisoned places is particularly strict, and there are not many ordinary people.
For Anzi, it was impossible to detect any information at all.
Yang Qian could only estimate the level of armaments equipped by the main forces of various countries from the scattered records.
"Xiao Yu, if you have time, please help me check and record the information on the main weapons, personnel, and quality of each country."
"Huh? Okay, no problem, but it's best to let Magic Stone, Yuzhu and Nina help."
"Why?"
Xiao Yu said awkwardly, "They are all your people, and they are also engaged in the work of checking information. Relatively speaking, they are easy to handle."
"Are there enough manpower? If not, how many people can be called in to help?"
"No need, other people are not suitable."
"I think Zhen Luo is pretty good, and she can read and write."
"Your Majesty!"
There was a loud roar that frightened Yang Qian for a moment.
"Uh~~~ I can hear you, why are you so loud?" Yang Gan scratched his ears, looking confused. He didn't know when he stepped on her tail.
"This woman is definitely not a kind person, and she is extremely scheming. I'm afraid she will disrupt the family atmosphere you have worked so hard to create."
Yang Gan smiled. It seemed that Xiao Yu was very wary of Zhen Luo.
"Okay, I only tell you what to do. As for how you do it and who you find to do it, I will not control it within the controllable range. You are the main one."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The corner of Xiao Yu's lips raised. His Majesty trusted him so much. Just because Zhen Luo could do so much under his eyes.
"Shang, was it you who assassinated King Shang?"
A startled voice sounded.
The three of them looked towards the source of the sound, and saw Xiao Siyuan, whose hair was slightly disheveled, looking at them in confusion.
Yang Qian twitched the corner of his mouth, "Why are you here? What did you hear?"
"I, I'm sleeping here. I heard it. It was you who assassinated King Shang."
"What the hell."
Yang Gan said with a dark face, "You didn't hear anything today, do you understand?"
Xiao Siyuan came back to her senses, couldn't help feeling frightened, and nodded quickly, "Understood, I didn't know you were the one who assassinated King Shang."
........
"Gungun, get out quickly, we still have something to talk about."
Xiao Siyuan quickly ran out of the carriage and was suddenly grabbed by Yang Qian.
"etc."
Xiao Siyuan had a look of fear on her face. She had been in a daze just now. Looking back now, she knew that such a confidential matter was over.
"You, you don't want to kill people and silence them, do you?"
"How about your reading and literacy?"
"Of course you can. I've been studying military science since I was a child."
"You read the book of war? I don't think with your emotional intelligence, you have read the book of war. Who wrote it?"
Although the military books of this era are somewhat different from those of previous generations, they are still generally similar.
"My father wrote it."
Yang Qian covered his head. The sixth child in the family was speechless.
"You may be a little busy during this period, and you will know some things. You will be exposed to the most secret truth in the world, but you must keep it a secret."
"What if I don't keep it a secret."
"I will kill your daughter."
Xiao Siyuan immediately said seriously, "Don't worry, I will definitely help. But, is it difficult? If it's too difficult, I won't be able to do it. If it delays the business, it won't be good for you."
"Assist Yu'er in sorting out the information. Do whatever she asks you to do."
"What if she lets me die?"
"Will not."
"Why, if so."
"Because she is not the sixth child."
.........
The sun sets.
Yang Qian has been busy handling official duties, but time has flown by unknowingly.
After the construction of the entire canal started, things became very complicated.
With the full cooperation of almost all departments, Yuntong County has also exploded with strong infrastructure potential.
Yang Qian needs to coordinate all departments. If everyone is not very cooperative or in tune, the speed and quality of the project will naturally be half the result with half the effort.
If all departments go all out and work together as a team, it will definitely be like turning on BUFF, doubling the efficiency.
In Zhuangzi and Yuntong City, countless money, grain and grass were transported to the designated destination like a long dragon.
"Magic Stone, scratch my back!!!"
Yang Gan felt very angry when he reviewed the official documents. These key official documents for allocating materials still had to be in writing.
The phone alone is not enough, and trying to allocate huge supplies with just one sentence is tantamount to wishful thinking, and even Yang Qian is worried.
It is safer to use official documents.
The most difficult thing to deal with is the county guards who pass by the Grand Canal.
On the surface, they are actually on the same level as themselves. In front of them, they just have an additional rank of lord and general.
Moreover, many county guards have connections with wealthy families, and they are even members of wealthy families themselves.
If you want to control things remotely, you might as well wash up and go to bed early.
I thought that Yang Qian could only adopt a gentle policy, speak in a nicer tone, and then wave the king's edict a few times to show the majesty of the king.
Not long after the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms was put down, one country was destroyed. Although the kings of the other six countries were still there, most of the armies were gathered and suppressed.
This has brought the king's prestige to its peak, and I think the clan will not attack him at this point.
Now that we have the big stick, the next step is the big dates.
Yang Qian also promised that once the canal is opened, a steady flow of money and grain will flow in, and the prices of some expensive goods will also be brought down.
Have people quickly deliver a dozen bronze seals to the county guards along the Grand Canal.
While Yang Qian was writing furiously, Zhang Yumeng stepped onto the carriage, soaked all over.
"Yeah, Yang Qian, you, your neck..."
Yang Gan didn't even raise his head, and said impatiently, "I know, I have one head and two heads now."
"No, no, your head is crooked, and you, your skin is scratched."
Zhang Yumeng pulled Cao Wushuang, who had just come in, and said.
"Look, Yang Gan's head is crooked, and there are scratches on his neck, body, and thighs."
"Huh? When you say that, it's true."
Yang Gan wrote quickly, and after a few minutes, he finally finished reviewing all the official documents.
Panting heavily, he said, "Yu'er, from now on, submit the documents regarding the military, appointments and dismissals, and the three major infrastructure projects to me. You can review and review the rest by yourself."
"Also, regarding the allocation of money and food, you and Mu Qing can decide between ten thousand shi and less than ten thousand gold. You don't have to ask me."
"I have to take care of all the little things. You want to keep me busy."
