Chapter three hundred and fifty second liquidation

"She lost weight, Sam!" Sima Ji laughed at Haidongqing's shining feathers, carrying the eagle into Jicheng.

"I have been wandering outside for so long, and I don't know what I'm doing?" Before he could rest for a long time after entering the mansion, Yang Xin appeared with a reproachful voice and said, "I don't know what you are busy with every day, it's the same in Jicheng, and it's the same when I go out. I even wrote back to ask me to do this and that, I don't understand you. If it were decades ago, you should be a good strategist."

"I'm busy! I don't know what I'm busy with. If I want me to be a strategist, I'll probably be able to assist Li Kuang Guo Si and come up with some bad idea to hold the court officials hostage." Sima Ji said, haha, and he was still very self-aware of this.

If it weren't for the identity bonus and the distance from Luoyang, even ordinary people like him, they would have been beheaded five or six times. However, Sima Ji, who knew himself and his enemies, knew him very well, so he could not go to Luoyang even if he was beaten to death.

Now it is nothing more than Jia Nanfeng who has no time to pay attention to himself. He always considers the first choice of the central government. The vassal states outside rank second at most. This will hardly change. Just like the Soviets always attack Europe and are not ready to come to East Asia to help poverty, it is an almost unbreakable law.

Compared with the royal kings of Luoyang who flies kites in Jicheng, they are Europe and China. Jia Nanfeng doesn’t care about Sima Ji at all, so he doesn’t want to worry about himself. He wonders every day why the entire Jin Dynasty’s queen didn’t care about his Jicheng?

Seeing that the person involved was ashamed and proud, Yang Xin couldn't help but feel angry, stretched out the green jade to point out Sima Ji's forehead, and scolded, "Isn't it good to stay in Jicheng? I have to wade into the prince's muddy waters. What's the result? It's gone away from the steadfast general of the North Town, and I feel comfortable now."

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't know. There is no war anyway. If it's gone, it's gone." Sima Ji looked indifferent. Yang Xin could blame him for anything. This is not enough. It's time to cut with the queen, otherwise it would be time to sink with Jia Nanfeng. The interruption was, "Is it already difficult for the mansion to be like this? I have lost my Sam. How strong I was when I left? Look at it now?"

"At that time, I couldn't even eat, and I was so full." Yang Xin said with a tense face, "You are raising pigs, right? Jurchen hunters all said they were too fat."

"I don't need that thing to hunt." Sima Ji lowered his head and muttered in a low voice.

"What did you say?" Yang Xin's ears were so good that she asked aggressively, "It's been a few months since she went out..."

"I said, have you asked you to buy food with money?" Sima Ji sighed, looking desperate. The ancients said that he didn't get a house and removed the tiles for three days. Was he a little too spoiled with the daughter of the criminal, so that she couldn't tell her about her identity?

When it comes to serious matters, the situation finally got pulled back from the verge of quarrel. Yang Xin said the matter before and after, waiting for Sima Ji's reaction.

"Zhanzhou is a new state. Since its founding, the imperial court has not yet minted coins. Whether it is Zhanzhou or Funan, coins are rare things. This is completely opposite to our Central Plains. On the other hand, coins are rare things for the local people, and what is lacking is the issue of recognition. For this king and various families, copper coins are useless except for rust." Sima Ji tilted his head and looked at Yang Xin and asked, "How many copper coins are there in the mansion?"

"Not less than 20,000!" Yang Xin hesitated and asked, "It's better to leave some emergency. There are so many female relatives in the mansion..."

Less than 20 million? Leave a little emergency? When Sima Ji heard Yang Xin's words, he felt that he had not been out for a few months, but had been away from home for ten years. Are these women talking like this now?

"Leave 50 million yuan, and the rest are used to buy food." Sima Ji said intimidly. Fortunately, he did not put all his hope on Yang Xin, but instead sent a letter to Funan Queen Liu Ye. Yang Xin was still a small peasant.

When is this time? Can you use so much money to exchange for food? What is more useful than food in troubled times? Unfortunately, King Yan could not scold Yang Xin loudly, and the other party didn’t know why he bought so much food, so it was normal that he couldn’t bear it.

"Liang Cheng, ask someone to go and record the matters, and the chief clerk called me. I have something to ask." Sima Ji turned to Yang Xin after saying that, "Madam, go back and rest. I have something to ask for for my husband."

Now we must correctly evaluate the financial situation. We cannot be prepared to deal with changes. Without specific numbers to support it, Sima Ji was also quite unsure.

"There are farmland in the 22 counties of the country, 13.5 million mu. Last year, together with crops such as millet, millet, wheat, etc., a total of 48 million stones of grain were produced. His Highness had traded with the Xianbei for a long time, and he had 220,000 oxen and 545,000 sheep. Pigs were the livestock that His Highness had always advocated for breeding, nearly one million. Chicken, duck, geese, poultry, mountains, rivers and rivers were everywhere, and it was impossible to calculate."

The chief clerk Feng Ji reported the current situation as soon as he opened his mouth, and Sima Ji calculated while listening. 13.5 million mu, 9,000 square kilometers, and the weight units of the Jin Dynasty were all inherited from the Han Dynasty. After this calculation, the output last year was about 300,000 tons. If we follow the minimum energy needed by a person, the standard for Indian people in the later generations was only 200 grams, which would not be too small, even if it was one pound...

"How much food has come from Zhanzhou and Funan!" Sima Ji suddenly heard the soundless, looked up and continued to ask Yan Yan.

"Since this month, there have been a steady stream of ships coming and going. It can be said that there are large ships from Jiaozhou, Zhanzhou and Funan every day, ranging from three to four ships to one ship every day. In the past month, there have been a total of eighty-five ships carrying grain." Yan Yan stroked his long beard and said calmly, "According to the two thousand stones of grain per ship, each ship."

"170,000 stones!" Sima Ji shook his head slightly, "This should be just the beginning, and it will probably be more in a while."

"Not counting the harvest from last year, how many original Chenliang were there?" Sima Ji looked back and asked Feng Ji.

"For many years, the Xianbei tribes have traded with each other, and the remaining grain is 6.7 million shi." Feng Ji said embarrassedly, "It was originally 10 million shi, but because His Highness wanted to provide disaster relief, a lot of it was transported out."

"Oh!" Sima Ji remembered that it seemed that several large granaries of the Sui Dynasty seemed to have placed this amount of grain. From this, it can be seen that the so-called Sui Dynasty's grain had not been eaten until the Tang Dynasty, which was definitely fart. Even if it was true, no one should think of eating it, because the old grain was not delicious, so he kept it there.

"Let me release all the old grains and store them in the homes of the people. From the exchange and occupation of Hefunan, put the grain transported from the food in Hefunan into the granary. The grain harvested last year was deducted from the food needed by the people and also put it in the granary. Starting this year, try not to trade with the Xianbei. Of course, we should also see if the Xianbei outside the Great Wall was suffering from disaster." Sima Ji took a pen and added, subtracted, multiplied and divided, and ordered Feng Ji, "Go and handle this matter immediately."

"Feng Ji accepts the order!" Feng Ji bowed and hurriedly left the Yan Prince's Mansion.

"How many of the strong men with registered household registration in the country are now? I have not inspected everywhere in the past two years. I don't know if the population is prosperous." Sima Ji raised another question, which is more sensitive. In addition to the household registration of military households, the remaining household registrations in Youzhou are divided into three, namely the total number of household registrations in Yan State, Anle Principality and Youzhou.

Sima Ji secretly checked the household registration of the Duchy of Anle, with a total of 11,900 households. After the country was destroyed, he actually concealed his household registration. It was a ill-gotten plan and his intention was to be punished. However, my Jin Dynasty did promise to treat the descendants of Anle Gong well, so the King of Yan could only tolerate it. Therefore, in order to prevent Duke Anle Gong from harming the country, the King of Yan had no choice but to secretly accumulate strength to ensure that he could suppress these ulterior motives at any time.

In desperation, Sima Ji checked his household registration for the last time. The household registration of the 22 counties of Yan State was only 67,000, and the remaining 20,000 households were not included, because they were Hu people.

As we all know, since the repeated rebellions in Guanzhong, the court has been worried about the Hu people. The King of Yan did not count the 20,000 Hu people, which was also for the sake of the country and the country. He was afraid that the ministers in Luoyang would get angry and were completely loyal.

"Because Jizhou, Qing, Yan, and Xujizhou have not been peaceful in recent years, Your Highness allocated grain to provide disaster relief. Therefore, Youzhou's household registration has increased slightly. In the past three years, the household registration of the country has increased by 32,000, but it has not been reported yet." The recording officer Jiang said carefully, "What the subordinate means is that these victims may return to their hometowns and do not need to report them."

Who would think that the population under his rule was small? Besides, Tong Jiang was a retainer of the country's founding state? Everyone understands the situation of Yan State. The place is large enough. If the population is about to rise, the court will return to the court's order of grace, Yan State might be demolished. The retainers and vassal kings are also in a relationship of prosperity and loss.

"Yes, yes, the victims will not settle down here again. There is no need to report them. They will return home at that time." Sima Ji nodded constantly and emphasized, "As for the Hu people, there is no need to report them. Let the court worry less. It is the purpose of our royal family existence, as for you."

"The ministers understand, so this general household registration is just based on the knowledge of His Highness, and some disaster victims are added. It is not worth mentioning!" Tong Jiang did not say how many household registrations the State of Yan were. He believed that the King of Yan understood.
