Chapter 490 Reserve Food

"In just these three days, we have already spent 170,000 shi of grain and several thousand pieces of cloth. Although I don't know where you got these supplies from, it is definitely not a good idea to continue consuming them like this!"

Jingwei has been shocked these days. With so many supplies, even Qi, the richest of the seven countries, would find it difficult to produce them. If these supplies were transported to Qin, at least he could get a marquis back.

A few thousand pieces of cloth are nothing, the key is the food and fodder, it's really terrifying!

Even though there are farmers in this world who help with planting, the grain output still cannot be increased. If the yield per mu can reach three stones, or three hundred and sixty kilograms, it would be considered a bumper harvest!
170,000 shi of grain and fodder were enough to feed an army of 100,000 for a year, even in the event of fierce fighting.

You must know that in the Battle of Changping, the State of Zhao was forced to let Zhao Kuo replace Lian Po to fight because it could not gather 50,000 shi of grain and fodder, which made Zhao Kuo bear the eternal infamy.

The registered population of South Korea is just over one million. Although there may be some nobles who hide the population privately, people nowadays are still relatively simple. In addition, South Korea is a land of many battles, so even if you want to hide, you can't hide much. Now at least half of the people in South Korea have received the favor of Li Qingyuan, and by the way, they know that they are now the Tang Kingdom!
People of this era are pure, but they are also realistic!
For the nobles, the killing of the King of Han and the theft of the throne by an outsider were like the collapse of heaven and earth. It made them feel so absurd, as if the sun and the moon had lost their luster.

Before Chen Sheng and Wu Guang shouted "Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers all of different species?", for the officials who could read a few words, whether it was the throne or official position, it was basically hereditary, similar to the bloodline theory of the Japanese next door in later generations.

Even the great general Ji Wuye, who possessed most of the country's troops and had absolute command over the capital, had never thought of killing the King of Han and establishing himself as the king. At most, he was only planning to marry the princess and gain a noble status!

Therefore, Li Qingyuan's behavior was simply heresy. Once it was made public, he would definitely surpass the Qin State and become the enemy of the world. After all, he was the enemy of all the aristocratic ruling classes in the world.

Although he was an enemy of the aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty dimension, at least there were still those poor students who wanted to make progress who could be used as substitutes. But in this era when knowledge is completely monopolized, his approach basically eliminated everyone's desire to join him.

Of course, investors like Bai Yifei are always indispensable, but the proportion of such people is really too small!

After all, don't think it's easy to throw away conscience and morals and become a bad person. Most people can't be so cruel.

However, compared to the nobles' devastating loss, ordinary people now only remember the good things about King Tang!

When the King of Han was in power, everyone was hungry and cold. They worked hard in the fields all day and ended up starving to death. If they were not careful, they would be dragged away to be cannon fodder. It could be said that life was worse than death and they could only endure it day by day.

But since the arrival of King Tang, everyone has lived a good life!
Twenty kilograms of white grain, which is the refined rice that only nobles can eat, is enough for the whole family to make porridge for a month!
Add to that the cloth, and it's enough to make a new set of clothes!
Especially since everyone, young or old, male or female can receive it, it can be said that this period is the happiest and happiest time for the Korean people.

Every household was able to wear new clothes, and for the first time since childhood, everyone experienced what it was like to eat to their heart's content. It can be said that Li Qingyuan's prestige in the hearts of the Korean people has reached at least 90 points.

King Han?

What King of Han?
Please call us happy Tang people!

Anyone who has used the 10 billion yuan subsidy knows the effect. Even in the future, as long as you are willing to spend money, there will still be a lot of people to help you speak well of it, not to mention in this Warring States period! 170,000 shi of grain and grass sounds like a lot, but in fact it is only about 10,000 tons. If you find a grain warehouse in a third-tier city and renovate it to store old grain, it will be more than this.

By the way, those grains distributed were all old grains stored in the granaries ready for refurbishment. In modern society, they could only be sold to fishermen as bait, but in this era, they were refined rice that even the nobles could not afford to eat on a daily basis!
There is no way. The productivity difference is more than two thousand years. This is completely a dimensionality reduction attack and bullying.

You know, at the Zhou Emperor’s banquet, barbecue was considered top-notch delicacies!

"It's nothing. Today is already the fifth day. Just spread it for seven days and it will be fine!"

Seeing Jingwei's difficulty in moving, Li Qingyuan directly picked him up.

How pitiful! How could he be so tired!

Jingwei screamed and felt like he was about to explode!
As one of the most powerful masters in the world, although she is pregnant, Jingwei said that she is still able to kill people. Although sorting out statistical data of materials is a bit annoying, it does not make her physically weak and make it difficult for her to move.

Why on earth have I become so weak? Don’t you have any self-awareness, you damn bastard?

If it’s not your own child, you wouldn’t care, right?
"Your Majesty! You are busy again!"

On this side, Li Qingyuan had just held Jingwei and infused her with internal energy, but unexpectedly, the Chao female demon came out from the corner swaying her waist.

Among all the women around Li Qingyuan, Chao Nuyao is the most ambitious.

Different from Yan Lingji whose brain is a mess and Jingwei who only thinks about living, Chao Nuyao says that she really wants to make progress.

She and Bai Yifei formed an ambitious duo. In name, they were subordinates of General Ji Wuye, but in reality, they were thinking of bypassing Ji Wuye and directly controlling the entire Korean political power. Are they considered villains among villains?
But nowadays it’s not enough for a villain to be ruthless and cruel, the most important thing is to have ability!

Compared with ordinary people, they are indeed very powerful, but they are only compared with ordinary people. If they really want to steal a country, they are still far from being strong enough!
However, there is always a shortage of fools who lack self-awareness in this world. The reason why Bai Yifei recommended Li Qingyuan to be king was mainly for his own ambition.

In Bai Yifei's opinion, Li Qingyuan possesses unparalleled fighting power, but he is just an outsider, so what does it matter how good he is at fighting?
He used the other party's name to kill all the old nobles of South Korea, and then waited until the other six countries found out that something was wrong and attacked South Korea. Then he could immediately restore order and kill Li Qingyuan, the guy who was pushed out to take the blame, and then find a useless son of the King of Han to ascend the throne. At that time, he could control the government like Ji Wuye.

Well, we can only say that Bai Yifei's idea is still very naive. He has not even thought about establishing himself as king directly. He is still playing the trick of using someone else as a substitute.
