Therefore, under the crisis of the household department this time, Su Shuang, the chief treasurer of the Great Wu Bank, took the risk of raising a total of 3000 million silver dollars from the Great Wu Bank to help the household department.

But what he did was dangerous.

This amount of money is not a small amount. In a certain situation, it has already shaken the foundation of Dawu Bank. If there is a knowledgeable person, it will move the depositors.He's in big trouble.

"Wei Chen understands!"

Lu Su's expression became serious, and he nodded.Confidently said: "Your Majesty, as long as our household department can get over this year's breath and revitalize the economies of Yuzhou, Yanzhou, Jizhou, and Qingzhou, I believe that next year will be on the right track. Within three years, we will definitely fill in the gaps." Take the money!"

The economy of the Great Wu Dynasty has always been relatively stable.

Battle of Kanto.The Great Wu Dynasty expanded more than a thousand miles under its native territory, and directly took over the four prefectures of Henan, Yan, Ji, Qing and Qing.

Except that Yuzhou is more troublesome.In the other three states, as long as the economy and people's livelihood are smoothed out, they will soon be able to feed back to the imperial court.

"After the Kanto battle is over, there will be a period of calm. If we want to enter the customs, we will probably have to wait a while. In my prediction, the entire plan of the imperial court for this year and next year is basically between the economy and agriculture. superior!"

Sun Quan also thought about the issue of economic development. A dark green light flashed across his amber eyes, and he said to the cabinet ministers, "So the cabinet must make good plans in this regard!"

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that our cabinet has already discussed and planned an economic recovery plan for the four states!" Zhang Zhao said: "I believe the cabinet can use the shortest time to restore the economy, people's livelihood and agricultural planting in the four states!"

"very good!"

Sun Quan nodded with satisfaction: "I heard that the Department of Agriculture has discovered a lot of newly planted grains in the South China Sea, Australia, and Guishuang's Western Regions, right?"

"Yes!" Lu Su nodded.

"Pay attention to this aspect!" Sun Quan has been focusing on fighting everywhere in recent years. After defeating Jingzhou and Bashu, he fought Cao Wei without stopping. He has neglected this aspect.

According to him, corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes, which can supply food and clothing, have already appeared in the Department of Agriculture.

"Your Majesty, what is the next goal of our Military Aircraft Department?" Cheng Pu asked after finishing the sour plum soup in the bowl.

"Two words, training soldiers!" Sun Quan said.

"Practice!"

"That's right, the next goal is to train troops and recharge your batteries!" Sun Quan's eyes were deep, and his expression was full of fighting spirit: "The final decisive battle in the Central Plains is not far away!"

A group of high-level celebrities from the Great Wu Dynasty talked for an afternoon in this imperial study room, basically chatting, but standing in their position, every word of the chat would determine the fate of thousands of people in the Great Wu Dynasty.

In the evening, Zhang Zhao and the others left the imperial study room one by one, but Gu Yong, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, stayed behind.

"Your Majesty, regarding the implementation of the nine-rank official system in the court, the Ministry of Officials has already made a rough plan!" Gu Yong presented a plan respectfully to Sun Quan.

This is a plan prepared by the Ministry of Officials for more than half a year. If it weren't for the Kanto War, this plan would have been put forward a long time ago.

"The nine-rank official system actually has the same meaning as the military rank system proposed by the Military Aircraft Department!"

Sun Quan crossed his legs, opened the file in his hand, and carefully read the plan submitted by the officials. Generally speaking, he was quite satisfied with the plan.

He thought for a while and said: "Of course, there are also big problems here. If a new system is to be suitable, it must be affordable by the court system. In this regard, it depends on the ability of the officials. The plan is put forward Is there a cabinet?"

"not yet!"

Gu Yong shook his head: "I want to hear His Majesty's opinion, and I'm bringing it up to the cabinet for discussion. Once it goes to the cabinet meeting and is dismissed, the officials will lose face!"

"You are very thoughtful!"

Sun Quan smiled. After Zhou Yu jumped, Gu Yong is now hailed as the number one seed of the heir by the cabinet, so his way of doing things has become much more stable now. He would rather work harder than do more comprehensive things.

"Most of them are basically satisfied, but it's better to adjust between the official rank of the first rank and the official rank of the first rank!"

"Your Majesty mean to suppress?" Gu Yong understood.

"If some positions are raised too high, people will fall to death!" Sun Quan nodded.

"Wei Chen understands!"

Gu Yong nodded, and his thoughts began to turn, considering Sun Quan's opinions.

----------------------

August of the Ninth Year of the Warring States Period.Spend time between peaceful atmospheres.

September is approaching, and in early autumn, amidst the autumn wind and fallen leaves, the majestic and prosperous Jinling City looks peaceful.

Soochow and Cao Wei intend to negotiate peace, but the more they talk, the more they talk. This is the negotiation between the two dynasties under the Sishui Pass, which has lasted for a month.But there is no progress.

There is still a tense atmosphere between the two dynasties.

In fact, it's not that they can't reach an agreement, the key is that neither side has much sincerity to negotiate peace.

For Soochow.It will be a matter of time before they enter Guanzhong, and it is useless to talk about it. For Cao Wei, preparing for war is the only action. It doesn't matter what they talk about.

So the period after the war was peaceful.

But there is a big event in Jinling City.

Zhao Yun, the former commander of the Central Army Corps, is now the chief coach of the Jinling City Recruit Corps.This old bachelor in his thirties finally got married under the personal gift of Sun Quan, the great emperor of the Eastern Wu Dynasty.

Although his current situation is rather desolate, from His Majesty's number one favorite general, the most potential first heir of the Military Aircraft Department, to a recruit instructor who is not even qualified to go to the frontline battlefield, more or less some people will fall down. stone.

But he is Zhao Zilong, the Great Wu God of War after all, and his demeanor is still there.On the day of the wedding, not only more than half of the cabinet ministers came to congratulate, but none of the ministers of the military aircraft department came back except leading the troops, as long as they were in Jinling City, they were basically all present.

Moreover, the commanders of each legion, including Tai Shici, the commander of the Western Expedition Army in Guishuang, personally sent people back to Jinling City to send congratulatory gifts.It was a spectacular scene.

It is three points more spectacular than when Sun Quan was a little Donghou and got married.

The etiquette of this big wedding basically turned into an exhibition at the Military Aircraft Department. They showed off their strong arms and high spirits, which to a certain extent inspired Wu Jun's military spirit.

After Zhao Yun's wedding, Jinling City quickly recovered its calm.

The time began to enter October of the ninth year of the Warring States Period.

Golden autumn in October.The fallen leaves are flying, and the scenery of Jinling is beautiful, which is worth watching, but the original peaceful atmosphere has been somewhat disrupted. Wei Jun's changes at Sishui Pass and Hulao Pass have made the military aircraft department pay more attention to it.

Military Aircraft Pavilion.

Wearing a brocade robe, Sun Quan sat at the head of a circular conference table in the official office of the General Staff Department, looking at the military reports in his hand, with a slight hint of coldness at the corner of his mouth: "The negotiations just a few days ago just ended. They have made a little progress, they have agreed to exchange prisoners, but they have started to mobilize their troops here, what does Wei Jun mean by this?"

"Your Majesty, the Wei Army is obviously increasing its troops!"

Zhuge Liang, the Minister of the General Staff, sat beside him, and said in a deep voice, "According to Jin Yiwei's military information, from September to October, the Wei army will forcefully conscript [-] young men in Guanzhong, and dispatch them to Sishui Pass and Hulao Pass!"

"Forcibly recruit young and strong?" Sun Quan's amber green eyes trembled slightly.

"Correct!"
