Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

For Chen Xi, the war between the Han Dynasty and Guishuang can only be said to be a certain link. Conquering Guishuang and taking the Ganges River as a grain production area is not an ultimate goal at all. If you really want to say it can only be said to be achieved A necessary link before the ultimate goal.

After all, in the garbage state at the beginning of the third century, if you want to create something powerful to open the eyes of others, you have to consider the actual productivity. In ancient times, if you didn’t solve the problem of eating, it was basically nonsense. From the current point of view, The Ganges is the most effective place to solve the problem of eating.

In other places, either your intensive cultivation takes too much time, or the upper limit of the output is too low. Only the Ganges can withstand construction and can produce enough grain. In the current situation, only the solution to the efficiency of grain production Problems are the only ones who are qualified to talk about the next stage, otherwise it is all nonsense. After all, this is not a future life, and there are a bunch of tools that can be used to replace it.

These days, everything has to be done by people. Even some high-efficiency tools need people to develop and assemble them at the beginning, so the situation is terrible.

At the very least, Chen Xi can see that in the Central Plains, where crops are harvested once a year and crops need to be rotated, it is really at his current level to increase the full-time population, and it may be possible to increase it in the future, but it is really difficult is too high.

On the contrary, on the Ganges side, by cheating, even at the expense of some production, a few points of full-time population can be saved, and with the current size of the Han Dynasty, a few points of full-time population are more than most small countries. The overall population of China is large, so there is a little hope for development.

So at this stage, Chen Xi's attitude is very clear, that is, to kill Guishuang safely, then bury his head in farming, save for a few years, and amaze the whole world.

Anyway, as far as the current places in the Han Dynasty are concerned, even if the current level has not reached the limit, it is equivalent to developing upwards against the ceiling. If nothing else, it is too tiring.

"If we recycle the full-time population, our military strength will drop to a certain extent. Will it really have no effect then?" Liu Bei asked with a frown.

"Somewhat. After all, there will inevitably be some border frictions, but at that time we don't need to attack from multiple directions. Even if we are facing Rome, as far as our situation is concerned, there are actually only two or three places where we can go to war." Chen Xi said calmly.

At that point, there are only a few positions to play.

Compared with the war of annihilating the country fought by the Han Dynasty and Guishuang, the situation of fighting everywhere is much better, and if the troops are concentrated and used, even if they are less, they will not feel that stretched. After all, war is not a war of annihilation, and the pressure will not be too great.

"Besides, the purpose of recovering the full-time population is to have a higher proportion of the full-time population in the future. It's not an intentional restriction." Chen Xi said with a smile, and then said with some sighs, "Actually, we are very short of people right now."

The current state of the Han Dynasty has quite a constraint on Chen Xi. It's not that Chen Xi has no better ideas, but that the upper limit that the current environment can bear is so high that people have to eat.

No matter how many people do other things, it is impossible to break through the fact that 90% of the people need to be bound to the land. Even if Chen Xi keeps trying to increase the grain production rate, he cannot confront the fact that people need to eat fact.

Therefore, for Chen Xi, Gan Guishuang is actually nothing fancy, it is just to allow fewer people to farm and more people to invest in other industries.

"Actually, those babies in the early days can almost do things like mowing grass and feeding cows." Liu Bei said helplessly.

"Well, the first wave of baby boomers is almost ready to be used." Chen Xi said with a bit of embarrassment.

The biggest difference between reality and games is this. People live on a daily basis. Education takes several years. Technology development requires a group of people to work together for several years. The most important thing in the end is that the baby grows up to be able to use it. It takes twelve or three years.

All these links cost money, and the problem of food is always the biggest problem in these years. The last three items are of great benefit to the people of the country in the long run, but as far as the output of the Han Dynasty was extremely low, the long-term There are really few people who dare to spend time on unproductive things.

actually

Even in later generations, after realizing the total amount of resources needed to feed a child, human beings will feel that it is better to give up.

The decline in the birth rate in the industrial age, in addition to the reason for the improvement of life, has a large part because the people have enough knowledge to determine the input and output.

As long as any matter enters the consideration stage, it will inevitably be finished.

"And after a certain amount of education, I can participate in what you call a relatively advanced production." Liu Bei said with a smile.

Hearing this, Chen Xi was about to cry. It was time to reap the investment of more than ten years. Looking back on what he had done for so many years, Chen Xi felt that it was really not easy. what people do.

"It will be better in the future. This is really the darkness before dawn." Chen Xi said with an extremely complicated expression. It can be considered that he has survived until now. As long as he has survived this step, many things that he could not solve before can be regarded as arrived. Time to fix it.

"It's really not easy. I didn't realize it when I promised to learn something when I was young, but when I really realized it, I realized that this might be the most difficult." Liu Bei said with some emotion, compared to other Several, but this one is the most difficult.

"However, education is the foundation of other industries." Chen Xi is very open about this.

In order for society to develop forward, the biggest problem facing it is the problem of talents. The two links of talent acquisition are population quantity and population quality, so there is nothing to say. The former is the birth rate and the latter is the educated population. .

Almost all problems inevitably fall on these two, and these two things are particularly outrageous and require continuous investment. What's worse is that these two things don't eat money, but money. Real resources, purely running money printing machines, cannot solve the problems that these two gadgets will encounter.

"Is it a happy feeling to finally see the money back?" Liu Bei said with a smile.

"Yeah, I finally saw the return money." Chen Xi said with some emotion, "With this return money, you can gradually start to replace it. To be honest, I can't bear some of the conventions of this era. Shit, it's so annoying."

"The remnants of the times, unavoidable things, after all, there was no such ingenious method as you to adjust them before." Liu Bei said with a smile, "To be honest, with the ability you are showing now, it is really true that you did not directly use the means of destruction back then." Incredible.

"...Chen Xi glanced sideways at Liu Bei.

"Maybe other people may think you are holy or something, but you and I have known each other for so many years, I think it is better to be straightforward than to say that you are holy. It's gone, and you don't know who to ask for work?" Liu Bei said to Chen Xi with a speculative tone.

"Yeah, that's the biggest problem. In the previous situation, who would do the work if the big families were killed?" Chen Xi said angrily, "To be honest, I can sort of read the classics of each family. If we really want to say that there is not much difference between the content of the books on the market, the real difference lies in the ideas of each family and surname in explaining these classics.

When Chen Xi said this, his mind was a bit complicated. These are the things that the major families really keep secret.

These days, except for military books, all other historical materials and classics are basically in line with the morality of the times, and Confucianism, as a prominent school, basically puts benevolence, righteousness and morality on paper.

To put it simply, these books teach benevolence, righteousness and morality, but not the way of being an official.

How to become an official, how to see through the game of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and how to use them are all secrets of each family and surname. There are many things controlled by the major families, but this requires the previous generation to compare reality. What was explained in detail in the past is the most core thing, and Confucian classics are just the appearance.

When Gouzi scolded Confucianism, he clearly scolded three things: "Young brother Lun has his crown, his speech is sloppy, and Yu's practice is followed by Shun. This is the lowly Confucianism of the Zizhang family. Straighten his clothes and crowns, even his color, and put on his clothes." However, keeping silent all day is the lowly Confucianism of the Zixia family. Stealing Confucianism and worrying about things, and eating and drinking without shame, must say that a gentleman does not use his strength, and this is the lowly Confucianism of the Ziyou family."

These three so-called lowly Confucian things, the lowly Confucianism that flooded in the Ming and Qing Dynasties are actually the lowly Confucianism of the Ziyou family. The so-called "gentleman does not use effort", to put it bluntly, these people have basically lost management and administration. ability, it is only natural that he will die in the end.

It's not that Chen Xi doesn't want to work in the big families, but after listening to Xun Shuang's lecture, Chen Xi realized that bureaucrats at all levels can still do things these days, instead of completely losing the ability to govern and letting the subordinates work. Because of this heritage.

If this group of people were directly abolished, without this kind of inheritance, Chen Xi would be useless. As for asking the major families to hand over this secret thing to other people, Chen Xi understood the meaning of entering the room as a disciple. Most people are unworthy in the eyes of the great families.

As for why Chen Xi went to listen to Xun Shuang's lectures, Xun Shuang showed his real ability to open Chen Xi's eyes, so it was meaningless. At that time, Chen Xi had already arrived in Yecheng, and the situation in the world was clear. Let's listen to you Xun Shuang Jing, if you don't show some real skills, then nothing will happen?

But it was really effective that time. After the lecture, Chen Xi’s idea of ​​forcibly cleaning up the big families was mostly extinguished—if this group of families is wiped out, and a group of lowly Confucians from the You family come up, then it’s better to continue running like this, after all In the current situation, the major aristocratic families can still function anyway, even if they are a bit rotten, they are not so rotten.

It's all broken, and there are plenty of people who want to be officials. The question is, are those people capable of functioning like the group of people who were broken before?

If not, the victims are all ordinary people, and if they are from south to north, east to west, wouldn't that force the world into chaos?

Because of this matter, if there is chaos in the world, Chen Xi thought, it would be better to just leave it like this, so after putting it like this, ten years have passed, and it can be regarded as the next stage.

"The situation will be better in the future, and we have passed the most difficult stage." Chen Xi spread his arms, as if embracing the future, and at this moment, a large snowflake fluttered from the sky, and a new day began. The year is about to begin.

"Wait, is this the most difficult time?" Liu Bei retorted.

"After beating Guishuang, is it considered to be a super ancestor?" Chen Xi didn't answer Liu Bei's question, but put his arms back into his sleeves, and looked sideways at Liu Bei.

"Of course. After beating Guishuang, I can go to the Taimiao and tell the ancestors that I did it." Liu Bei said with a red light on his face. It can be seen that he is very excited, after all, he was the one who made a wish to Wanmin back then. At that time, Liu Bei made a big promise on the spur of the moment, but Liu Bei didn't think carefully about how to complete it step by step.

Even when he looked back and thought about it carefully, Liu Bei himself felt that he was somewhat uncertain.

However, I don’t want to think that sixteen years have passed. The promises I made back then are almost fulfilled. Even if they are not fully realized, they are on the right track. Next, as long as Guishuang is defeated, Liu Bei can go to the Taimiao to express a great victory.

"However, as far as I'm concerned, after playing Guishuang, it's just a new one." Chen Xi said with a smile, and Liu Bei flinched.

"Forget it, forget it, change the subject, I've already said this, you're right, but don't say it." Liu Bei waved his hand, expressing that he didn't want to talk about this issue.

Let's talk about the banquet. Sun Bofu has prepared the materials for the banquet, and I happen to have time, so let's hold a private banquet at my home. "Chen Xi didn't care about Liu Bei's look of collapse after being hit, and said with a smile.

"Is there anything you want to talk about?" Liu Bei asked after thinking about it.

"Comfort Jingchu's aristocratic family, and give Zhou Gongjin a step." Chen Xi nodded and said, "There are still some things that are difficult to say on a serious occasion, so let's talk about it at a private banquet."

"Cao Sikong and the Zhen family?" Liu Bei nodded knowingly.

"Somewhat." Chen Xi sighed, "To be honest, if I hadn't known that I would have been out for a year, with all the messy things that happened this year, I would really want to hit someone, all kinds of moths, and the Zhen family Are you mentally ill?" The Zhen family has voted for so many years, but there is no result, and Chen Xi also admits it. After all, the Zhen family has a backer, and at least they can squat in the Midia condominium in the future. Zhen Yan said that he is a concubine succeeding to the throne, shameless, then it's nothing.

The problem is that you are shameless, what are you doing with Cao Cao, have you forgotten who your backer is?

Look at your backstage, your backstage is Liu Bei and Chen Xi, are you messing with Cao Cao?
