Feng Shengzhou was not the only one giving Zhao Huan a headache.

In fact, the situation in Xijin Prefecture is no better than that in Fengsheng Prefecture. In the future, there may be Yunnei Prefecture, Dading Prefecture, Yikun Prefecture, Linhuang Prefecture, Longhua Prefecture, Taizhou, Tongzhou, Shenzhou, etc. Liaoyang Prefecture and other places will face the same problems as Fengsheng Prefecture.

Then Zhao Huan thought of someone.

Many people know that talent is the most expensive, but what kind of talent is considered a talent?

It is obvious that Qin Hui and Qin Huizhi, who was a Jinshi in the fifth year of Zhenghe, was a scholar of Chinese poetry and Maoke, and served successively as Xuezheng of Taixue, Zuo Sijian, and Yushi Zhongcheng.

Ever since Zhao Huan cut off his hair on the head of Bianjing City and swore an oath to act as the head of state, Qin Zhongcheng, the censor Zhongcheng, Qin Hui, wisely chose to shut up. Even if the officials built the capital temple outside Bianjing City and then built it outside Taiyuan City, Qin Zhongcheng chose it anyway. Act as if you didn't see it.

Moreover, he also searched through ancient books, looking for any articles that might establish a good image for the government.

The most important thing is that Qin Zhongcheng is a disposable tool that can be killed after use to vent public anger, so there is no need to feel bad at all.

If people like Qin Zhongcheng are not considered talents, then what kind of people are considered talents?

Then Qin Zhongcheng was taken to Fengsheng Prefecture by the people from the Imperial City Division.

"Such a dilemma."

After briefly describing the problems Feng Sheng Prefecture was currently facing, Zhao Huan stared at Qin Hui with a smile and said, "I hope Qin Zhongcheng can teach me something?"

"The Great Wall can be built!"

Without even thinking about it, Qin Hui bowed directly and said: "If the officials want to solve the problem of Fengsheng Prefecture, they should build the Great Wall first."

"Whether it is Fengshengzhou or Xijin Prefecture, the biggest problem now is just that Hu and Han people live together."

"The officials only need a decree to recruit the people of Fengsheng Prefecture and Xijin Prefecture to build the Great Wall, and select the best ones to be registered in the Song Dynasty as an example."

"It connects to the Great Wall of Qin in the west, passes through Xijin Prefecture in the east, crosses the Luanhe River, and is built directly to Laizhou."

"You can ask Xiao Nuoyan, the surrendered general of the Liao Kingdom, to send a team of men as supervisors."

"Even if something goes wrong, it's just because Xiao Nuoyan was not strict with his subordinates."

"You can also ask the Ministry of Industry to send people to explore the minerals, and then let those people go mining. You can also select the best ones to be registered in the Song Dynasty as an example."

"If the officials want to completely restore the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun or directly attack Huanglong, they must need a lot of weapons and firearms. If they are directly manufactured by the Capital Ordnance Bureau and then transported to the border, it will be a lot of waste."

"If there are iron ores and the like here in Fengsheng Prefecture, the minerals mined here can be transported to Xijin Prefecture, and then weapons and firearms can be made directly in Xijin Prefecture."

"In this way, we can not only save the waste caused by transporting weapons and firearms back and forth, but also stock up troops and food to wait for the opportunity to attack, as Mr. Zhong said."

"You can also judge other people's hearts through the performance of these people while working. Even if there are people with evil intentions who want to cause trouble on the heavily guarded construction site of the Great Wall, it will not be easy."

"In case my thoughts are not as good as those of the officials, please ask the officials for advice."

Qin Zhongcheng's words were extremely humble, and there was not even a trace of pride on his face. It seemed that he was really not as good as Zhao Huanzhi.

"Qin Aiqing's words are very popular with me, very popular with me."

But the words changed, and Zhao Huan continued: "What if I don't want to build the Great Wall, but just want to lead my troops to Huanglong, and then completely wipe out Mobei?"

When asked by Zhao Huan, Qin Hui was dumbfounded and even began to doubt whether what he heard was what the current officials said -

Judging from the current situation and the attitude of the officials after Wanyan Zongwang's troops besieged Bianjing, a direct attack on Huanglong is almost a certainty.

But what if we can go straight to Huanglong?

Back then, the Han Dynasty beat the Huns into dogs. What was the result?

When the Central Plains Dynasty was prosperous, conquering the grassland was naturally just like having fun. However, after the battle was over, the barbarians on the grassland might be replaced by a new batch of barbarians, but the grassland was still the same grassland, and the new barbarians would still take the opportunity to go south.

If the Great Wall was overhauled according to Zhong Xianggong's idea, even if the Song Dynasty went downhill after that, there would still be a high probability that the northern territory could be defended.

But the officials say they won’t build the Great Wall?

Qin Hui quietly raised his head and glanced at Zhao Huan, only to see Zhao Huan looking at him with a smile but not a smile. Qin Hui immediately felt a move in his heart and replied: "If the officials don't want to build the Great Wall, they can move all the people after Mobei is wiped out, and then find someone who can."

The crops grown on the grasslands were moved to Mobei by the people of the Song Dynasty. Is there no danger in this?"

Zhao Huan couldn't help but applaud Qin Hui and Qin Zhongcheng: "Qin Aiqing is a great talent!"

After praising Qin Hui, Zhao Huan continued: "If I order Qin Aiqing to be the magistrate of Fengshengzhou, what will Qin Aiqing do?"

Here comes the point!

Ever since he received the order for him to leave to serve the Holy State, Qin Hui had been thinking about what was going on here. What he just said made Qin Hui confirm his thoughts——

Now as long as I can answer the last question well, I will be transformed from the censor Zhongcheng into a dignified magistrate of a state, and most likely the magistrate of an important border town!

"My lord, I still know how to build the Great Wall."

After taking a deep breath, Qin Hui bowed and replied: "The officials are wise and powerful, and naturally look down on the world. However, for the Song Dynasty's ten thousand years plan, I thought that before I found crops that could be grown on the grassland,

, the Great Wall should still be built.

What's more, there are still many people to deal with in Fengsheng Prefecture, and building the Great Wall is the best way."

Zhao Huan said with a smile: "Where is the money? Qin Aiqing knows that the treasury has long been out of money. Even the last copper plate was taken by the emperor to Bozhou to burn incense. Most of the military expenses now are obtained by selling off the palace items.

.”

"The people from Fengsheng Prefecture and Xijin Prefecture are recruited to build the Great Wall. There is no need to give them gold or silver. They only need to pay their sons."

However, Qin Hui bowed confidently and replied: "Now that Fengsheng Prefecture and Xijin Prefecture have been newly settled, there is not much place to spend money. I thought I could set up a bank to temporarily keep their wages for them until businessmen swarm over."

Then let them take out the money and spend it."

"Two or more new cities will be a huge market, enough to attract merchants, and then there will naturally be a commercial tax."

Zhao Huan understood it——

First, the laborers were recruited to work, and then they were given wages (Jiaozi). However, there was no place to spend the money, so the government came forward to let these coolies deposit the money in banks.

After the merchants came to Fengsheng Prefecture, there was naturally a commercial tax, and the money spent in the early stage basically circulated back to the government through the hands of the merchants.

In addition, there is a bank in the middle that can feed two families. When absorbing the wages of the coolies, they charge a small amount of storage fees, and then lend money to merchants who need capital so that those merchants can transport more goods.

As time went by, the coolies made money, the banks made money, the merchants made money, and materials were circulated more widely. After the government collected taxes, they could continue to build the Great Wall. In addition, the government gained

With such a large territory, we can naturally settle more people and collect more taxes.

In this process, the court hardly had to spend a penny first, and almost everyone did not suffer losses and could get benefits.

Damn, who dares to say that Qin Hui is not a talent? It’s just that this bitch didn’t use his brain in the right place!

After cursing Qin Hui secretly in his heart, and strengthening his determination to let Hei Bai Wuchang take Qin Hui away sooner or later, Zhao Huan turned around with a smile and ordered: "Draw up an imperial edict and add Qin Aiqing as the magistrate of Feng Shengzhou and the commander of the construction of the Great Wall."

After finishing his instructions, Zhao Huan turned to Qin Hui and said, "I will entrust the matter of Feng Shengzhou and the Great Wall to Qin Aiqing."

Qin Hui was overjoyed and immediately bowed and said: "I am favored by the officials, and I am willing to serve to the death!"

Zhao Huan nodded and turned the topic back to other aspects: "How is the city of Bianjing lately? The Ministry of Revenue rebuilt the fish scale book and the yellow book. Did the Yushitai also send people to follow them?"

"To inform the officials, the Empress Dowager Longyou is in charge of the affairs behind the curtain in the capital, and Li Dazai and others are assisting the administration. There are no major problems in the court, and everything is well with the Empress and the Prince."

Qin Hui bowed and said: "As for the Ministry of Household Reproduction of the Fish Scale Book and the Yellow Book, the Censor's Office has sent people to follow, and Censor Guanfeng has also gone out secretly. I don't think there will be any problems."

Whatever Zhao Huan asked, Qin Hui would answer whatever he asked. He would never say a word or mention anything that had nothing to do with him. Even now, many people in the court were impeaching him, saying that finding reasons for the officials to build the capital was tantamount to aiding the emperor.

Nothing was mentioned.

With such knowledge and interest, even Zhao Huan couldn't help but want to applaud Qin Hui——

It's normal for this kind of person to get ahead, but if he doesn't get ahead, that's what he's doing in broad daylight.
