On the boat upstairs, Yue Chen looked solemn.
"How many similar incidents have you discovered now?"
Yue Chen asked.
Wei Zhongxian worshipped: "According to the report from Xichang, almost all villages within the scope of Yue State acted at the same time.
The enemy was clearly premeditated, and the offensive launched was fierce. "
Xiao He said, "By the time we find out, it will be too late to stop. Now, it is blooming everywhere."
Yue Chen murmured: "Now, it can't be stopped.
Except for the original Yue country area, other places, Zhen just ruled.
Now that the common people are taking advantage of the visible advantage, I told them this is a trap and no one will listen.
If they were to block their transactions forcibly, the people would definitely oppose it frantically.
By next year, the price of food has doubled, and after they lose money, I am afraid that I will resent them again for not dealing with them.
At that time, it is not just a matter of resentment. People who have no money to buy food will starve to death in pieces.
The people will rebel in large numbers, and all the order of the empire will be lost.
Xiao He, Shen Wanshan, what can you do? "
After thinking about it, Yue Chen continued: "Can we go to other empires to collect food?"
Shen Wanshan said: "Without manpower, we are not prepared.
This matter is easy for the other party to destroy. It is too difficult for us to buy so much food and distribute it to each village. It is difficult to keep our pockets, which will make the world angry.
Your Majesty, when the disaster relief was done, the officials were all fed.
In the end, even if the disaster relief is stable, the empire's economy will go backwards for ten years. "
"Must intervene!"
Yue Chen whispered softly.
Xiao He worshipped: "Your Majesty, if it happens in the territory under our control, it is easy to intervene in this matter.
But the problem now is... our influence over the newly controlled empire is very weak. "
"There is no way?
I want to watch these lawless people do harm under my nose? "
Yue Chen gritted his teeth and shouted, "I have annexed these empires. If I don't believe it, I can't cure these guys.
Let's think of a way to play with these chores. "
"Yes!"
Everyone prayed.
Yue Chen also used his brain.
Speaking of playing with people's hearts, people in the era of Yue Chen's previous life were strong when they played with people's hearts.
One scam, one after another empty glove white wolf, pyramid schemes, lending, and health care products.
Obviously, the whole people knew that it was harmful, but with fluke and greed, they followed one by one like moths into the fire.
Yue Chen murmured: "The enemy is aiming at the weakness and greed of the human heart. They used this to kidnap the people.
But I am the king of a country, and I have the greatest influence. What should I do?
By the way, what should they do if they receive food?
Hide it?
At least, they will not be transported from the land in an open manner.
However, the storage ring can't hold so much food. "
Xiao He nodded and said, "It must be impossible to hold it.
They harvested the grain, which is likely to be destroyed. "
Yue Chen shouted: "It is said that all the gods will discuss together and go to my study."
When Yue Chen entered the study, he saw Bai Qi and others waiting at the door.
Yue Chen hurriedly shouted: "Bai Qi, you are in charge of the deployment, dispatching the gods and guards, and you are not allowed to let any grain of food in the air.
Except for the necessary defenses, all the other people were dispatched to let the Guards guard the border and various areas, and to find anyone who destroyed the food, kill them.
Generals, this battle involves the rise and fall of the Yue State, so don't neglect. "
"According to the purpose!"
The soldiers shouted.
"Xun Yu!"
Yue Chen shouted again, "You immediately order to each level, all food is allowed in but not allowed out."
"Yes!"
Xun Yu responded.
However, this is not enough. If ordinary people do not grow food this year, they will still be hungry next year, and Yue State will also cause food prices to rise sharply because of food shortages.
The people must be planted with food.
"Human heart!"
Thinking of this, Yue Chen smiled coldly, "These people who buy peppers are all ordinary people."
Xiao He said: "Return to your Majesty, all on the bright side are ordinary people."
Yue Chen leaned on the chair and whispered softly: "They may be innocent, but at this moment, even if they have no thoughts, they have done bad things.
You said, what would happen if these people were arrested? "
Xiao Hedao: "If you catch them, the impact is a bit big, but it's manageable.
But I am afraid that I will miss the cultivation season.
In addition, these people have no idea what happened.
This time the enemy can let these small merchants and vendors collect chili.
When these people are caught, they can delay farming in other ways.
As long as this small trader is not dead, unless your majesty bans the small trader, someone will always be driven. "
"So, it's useless to catch them?"
Yue Chen said.
Xiao Hedao: "The enemy chose the right time. After ten days, the farming season will be missed. Even if the seeds are sown, no grain will grow."
Yue Chen said: "So, are there still more coins in my treasury?"
Xiao He said: "Yue Guo has a lot of coins.
However, because the previous countries have been fighting all the year round, there is not much food in stock.
The enemy also took a fancy to Yue Guo's weakness and started with food. "
Yue Chen said: "So, what if I arrest all the people who buy peppers, and then encourage the people to grow grain, and subsidize a certain amount of money per mu?"
Xiao He said: "Your Majesty's method is very good.
If you are afraid, then the subsidy money will fall into the pockets of officials. "
Yue Guo is too big, and these things must be handled by grassroots officials.
The so-called sky is high and the emperor is far away. It is too easy for the officials at the grassroots level to do something.
At present, most of the grass-roots officials in various countries are still people from those powerful families.
They are accustomed to eating the flesh and blood of the people. Many people are forced to sell their fields and women. They are asked to help the people. Maybe the people will still be hungry when the time comes, but they will have to eat.
Even if the people are asked to sign one by one, but when it comes to the signature in Yue Chen's hand, who knows who signed it?
Yue Chen said viciously: "If so, shall I send a guard to sit in town?"
Xiao He said: "Now our Yue country has more than 30 million villages."
"The town!"
Yue Chen said.
Xiao He worshipped: "There are 1.5 million towns in total."
Yue Chen sighed, even if the guards were to sit in a town alone, it would be too difficult.
Yue Chen said angrily: "If the talents of our scientific research are all over the grassroots, why should I have such troubles."
In the final analysis, it is the problem of insufficient control.
Xiao He worshipped: "Your Majesty, the minister has a method, maybe you can try it, but your majesty must come forward."
"Oh, what method?"
Yue Chen said.
Xiao He worshiped: "Didn't Your Majesty just opened up an area in the spirit world?
Your Majesty can gather the courtiers of the nations and have a talk.
In addition, the evaluation indicators for farming are incorporated into the evaluation of the promotion of officials. "
"Not right..." Xun Yu said suddenly.
