Chapter 4252: support

Liu Bei sent Chang'an a copy of all the news from the Yuan family and the Sun family. After all, it is really necessary to check the Xiongnu, even if it is fake news, it is worth checking.

"Ah, what kind of ghost news is this?" Chen Xi stunned after reading the secret report Guo Jia threw over, everyone was stunned, the Huns are alive again?

"The news sent by the Romans is still trustworthy." Guo Jia nodded and said.

"You all have a look, what's going on here? Didn't the Huns die just now? According to previous experience, even if you want to resurrect your body, wouldn't it take 20 or 30 years? Will it be ten years this time?" Chen Xi said with a headache Pass this information to Li You.

The defeat of the Huns by the Han Dynasty is no longer a matter of once or twice. The problem is that after each defeat, the Huns will come back within 20 years. For more than 300 years, the Huns have continued to revive.

Therefore, the previous battle in northern Xinjiang killed the Xiongnu, and the Han Dynasty could not guarantee that the problem was really solved. Even if several tomb-suppressing beasts were built, a bunch of messy towns were stuffed, and even the so-called truncated They have tried all the things of national fortune, but if it is said that they really killed the Xiongnu, the Han Dynasty still has some doubts.

"It is recommended to send a fleet to investigate." Li You just glanced at it and gave a conclusion. After all, it was the news from the Huns, so he had to check it out if it was not true. Compared with other times, he was somewhat suspicious and considered his own The status is as if nothing happened, and muddling along, the Huns are more superior.

"Arrange a reconnaissance team of 500 people to make sure." Zhuge Liang also meant the same thing after reading it. The Huns were not dead. The Han Dynasty had seen each other's corpses many times, and they sat up in the coffin, opened the coffin, etc. However, there are still some doubts about whether the battle in northern Xinjiang will be wiped out.

Even though the Battle of Northern Xinjiang is almost an important legal basis for these important court officials and the new generation of princes, when it comes to the possibility that the Huns are still alive, everyone present still calmly considered this possibility, not to mention that the Huns had PTSD towards the Han Dynasty. In fact, the Han Dynasty did the same for the Xiongnu's fraudulent corpses.

"It just so happens that there is a reconnaissance team coming back from the Ganges River, and we can choose people from them to form a team." Lu Su also said, this group of people really think that the Huns are still alive, even if it is fake news, they are ready to investigate it.

"Then let's form it, but go along the continental shelf as much as possible, and check carefully." Chen Xi also felt that it was necessary to make sure that if the Xiongnu were still alive, it would be better to kill them as soon as possible.

After the group of people from the Government Affairs Office passed it collectively, this matter was quickly included in the promotion plan, and it was the kind with complete manpower and materials.

"And then this." Zhuge Liang handed the prepared plan promotion letter and material reserves to Chen Xi, and when Chen Xi started working, he hurriedly asked the other party to see if there was any problem.

"Actually, I've seen this before. I just want to ask, why are your quotas gone with three months before the end of the year?" Chen Xi asked with a headache.

In addition to the quota materials required for the tasks under the name of the Twelve Elders, there is also a part of the quota that they freely control. This part of the quota is actually quite a lot. Do anything.

Just like Sun Qian, Jian Yong, and Liu Yan, the three unlucky children. At first, they used their quotas to invest in education and competitions, hoping to cultivate suitable young people. Later, they realized that some subjects were pure nonsense, so they used resources to engage in medical and health care, specializing in research on reincarnation.

These resources are directly allocated by Chen Xi to these people, and they belong to a completely independent part. However, not every elder can find a suitable investment direction every year, so this part of resources will be accumulated.

Unlike sending 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 problems. Therefore, some people have not been able to find a suitable investment direction, and the resources will continue to accumulate .

However, Chen Xi found out that he had been out for a year, and the resources at hand of the twelve-member veteran were not only spent this year, but also those accumulated in previous years.

"My quota is handed over to Xianhe." Lu Su said blankly, "After the Jizhou eucalyptus was settled, in order to avoid hidden dangers, Xianhe first went through Jizhou's logistics network, and the resources originally prepared were not enough to be comprehensive. Spread it out, so I gave it to him to use."

Lu Su has a lot of resources, because he seldom uses them, mostly Ji Xiang and Xu Ning use them in medical technology and education, and these two people don’t use much, so they have been accumulating, 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.

"I've filled in the hole for Zhou Yu. This year's naval shipbuilding plan mainly focuses on building sixth-generation ships, and only plans to build three to be seventh-generation ships." Li You replied calmly.

Chen Xi nodded. Chen Xi can understand the situation of both of them. The problem is that what Chen Xi can't understand is how he went out for a year, and everyone's resources are empty.

"Then you have to look at Kong Ming." Chen Xi's eyes fell on Guo Jia, and then Guo Jia smiled and looked at Zhuge Liang, and Chen Xi looked at Zhuge Liang because he didn't understand.

"Because of a verification, other people are willing to try it, so I discussed with them and drew their reserve resources." Zhuge Liang nodded and said.

The resources of Jia Xu and Fazheng are in the hands of Li You, and Li You used them to make armaments, and there were still a lot of surplus, but before Zhou Yu capsized, Zhuge Liang borrowed half of them to make mechanical parts, and the remaining half was in Zhou Yu's capsized ship. After that, it was used to build a seventh-generation ship.

There is actually nothing to say about these two parts, and they all have a clear next door. Li You himself knows that even if Zhuge Liang doesn't call, he will do these things. You are too good to face Zhou Yu directly.

After all, the incident on the Ganges River, even if it was all a coincidence or an accident, without any elements of calculating Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu would not be in a good mood when he heard the word 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.

"It's this." Zhuge Liang flipped through his official documents, and then took out a copy and handed it to Chen Xi, "I think this is very interesting. After discussing with other people, I tried it."

Chen Xi took the official document, opened it, and looked at it. It was a social survey on the Gyeonggi area, but compared to the previous rough survey, this one was more detailed, and the leaders also came from the group of Wang Ji and Zhuge Dan. The person was replaced by Wang Yi.

"I remember I saw this thing last year, let me have a look." Chen Xi asked curiously while looking at it, "I still remember complaining about your brother's ability to do it, and you can put it out when you work hard. This year, Jing Zhaoyin actually took the lead."

"It's about disaster years, good years, and labor remuneration. Jing Zhaoyin conducted a detailed investigation because of the heavy snow the year before last, and finally made a new report based on the investigation report of Taixue. Based on this report, we believe that It needs to be verified." Zhuge Liang explained, "The verification of this report needs to be done in a poor area, so a lot of materials are needed."

Chen Xi nodded when he heard the words, and began to study carefully. The description in it was not complicated. Wang Yi also seemed to have thought about it carefully, and finally came to a conclusion. Chen Xi looked at it and found that the conclusion was basically correct.

"Jing Zhaoyin must have spent a lot of thought on this investigation, the expectation of labor remuneration in the general social environment." Chen Xi looked at this thing and smiled happily.

Although Wang Yi's starting point was very simple, he just wanted to see how to maximize the benefits of the Gyeonggi region, but the research finally fell on the individual.

"Some understand why you have spent all your resources. I'm afraid it's not enough." Chen Xi smiled and said, social surveys are not easy to do, and it takes more funds to rely on surveys and verifications after completion, and this kind of directly involves social affairs. For labor remuneration expectations in the environment, you still need to determine the accuracy of the data yourself. It is normal for Zhuge Liang to spend other people's resources.

"It's really not enough, and I even signed an IOU with the eldest princess." Zhuge Liang said a little tiredly. It is really thanks to Liu Tong's willingness to support, otherwise, there is no way to verify this matter.

Although Zhuge Liang said that when he started the verification, he felt that it might cost a lot of money to verify it, but when it came to the real verification, the funds and resources were not enough.

Liu Tong gave Zhuge Liang money in the spirit of not losing money anyway, and I also want to see what the situation is. After all, Chen Xi will make up for the loss when Chen Xi comes back. Anyway, Zhuge Liang was hand-picked by Chen Xi The heir, messed up with the prince. As long as the emperor does not abolish the prince, the prince will be reprimanded at most. The emperor will still solve the problem that needs to be solved.

Therefore, when borrowing money and resources from Zhuge Liang, Liu Tong was not worried about losing money at all.

"It's actually difficult to verify this thing, because I have calculated it before, even if it is not very accurate, but based on the social environment and the smoothness of the market operation, this expectation will be very stable." Chen Xi said with a smile, "But It’s good for you to try it yourself.”

Chen Xi put Wang Yi's report aside and was very happy. After walking by himself for a year, this group of people really did something.

How to say about the expectation of labor remuneration, this stuff is actually quite counter-intuitive. From an intuitive point of view, it should be that the price of goods has risen rapidly, and labor remuneration should also rise accordingly. The cost of living has risen, and labor remuneration should also rise, and so on.

But it’s not, this thing is often reversed, that is, when prices are rising desperately, labor compensation will not only not rise, but will also decrease. When the cost of living continues to rise, labor compensation expectations in the market will even decline. .

Because what determines labor remuneration is not such strange things as prices at all, but the expectations of social groups for the social environment.

To put it simply, the society tends to be stable and the economic growth rate is stable. People can clearly feel that the society is moving forward. When everything is booming, prices will not rise too fast, but labor remuneration is increasing significantly, and market opportunities are greatly increasing. , Individuals will continue to increase their own expectations, be brave to try and take risks, and create more opportunities.

Therefore, at this stage, the overall labor remuneration expectations of the society are constantly increasing, but the price growth rate will not be too obvious, or even increase, and individuals will not feel too obvious.

On the contrary, the society tends to be turbulent, the economic growth rate slows down, or even declines, and people are shaken and doubtful about the future social development. When the social aspect declines, prices will rise rapidly, and labor wages will even drop significantly.

In this social environment, individuals' expectations for themselves will also drop, and they will tend to be conservative about taking risks and attempts, and labor remuneration will further decline, and then a vicious circle will follow.

To put it bluntly, when the social situation is good, capital is involved, capital is involved, the average salary is forced to increase, and the income of ordinary working people increases. When the situation is not good, ordinary working people have to be involved if they want to live. The trend of risk-taking has declined, not only does not roll, but also tends to be conservative, layoffs, lower reward expectations, cost sharing, and so on.

After all, the situation is good, and there will be greater rewards in the future. In order to eat more, you can accept greater salary expenditures. But the situation is not good, and expectations for the future will decline. Then the core is not how to eat more, but to spend time. It is cold winter, so at this time, a series of layoffs and salary cuts will inevitably be carried out.

After further layoffs and salary cuts, new recruitment attempts have to be made to feed the population, and the number of people who need to work has increased. The companies that provide jobs have further shrunk because of declining expectations for the future of society, and the working people have to roll in order to survive.

At this time, the problem of rising prices will also be exposed due to the tightening of money, further deteriorating the social environment, and finally leading to a vicious cycle entering a new 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, the parties who provide the reward and those who receive the reward will not be too entangled in many details, because they both believe that the future is promising, so they can accept a temporary loss.

This is also the basis for Chen Xi to control the Han Dynasty. Compared with materials, certificates and other means, whether the people are optimistic about this country is more important in national policy and development.

After all, the national government actually has no deposits at all. All its disposable wealth comes from people’s consumption and tax payments, so there has never been any government paying for it. All policies, all expenses, and all seemingly free activities are The people are paying 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.
