Of course, he could not be the same as he was with Han Fei. Xiong Jing spoke, asked him to sit down and asked him to drink tea. Wei Jianyou was disrespectful and took a sip of tea before saying, "I know that the Qin people sent hundreds of thousands of soldiers to attack Zhao, and I was afraid. The court officials were worried about the war. Some said that the Chu State would not be saved, and Zhao would be destroyed; some said that Qin would not be destroyed; some said that Zhao would take more than ten years to destroy Zhao in Yan land, and that it would be enough. However, I knew that the court officials would not understand Qin, so I wanted to move to Chu..."

"Oh?" Xiong Jing laughed. "The State of Chu has a nationality law. How did Doctor Wei move to Chu?"

"The king captured 100,000 Wei soldiers, and less than 40,000 returned. The rest were all in Chu. The family members of the Wei soldiers were numerous, and the officials could move to Chu in the name of the soldiers and their families." Wei Jianyou had to explain. In fact, the Wei people were also constantly migrating to Chu without taking advantage of the family members of the surrender. The common people did not know the general trend of the world, but they sought profit. When they heard that some counties and towns in Chu were attracted, they immediately ran over.

"What happened?" Xiong Jing understood. The idea that the Grand Sima Mansion came up with 38,000 surrendered soldiers to exchange for the families of 60,000 surrendered soldiers.

"However." Wei Jianyou did not mention the matter of attracting the people of the Chu county and town, and told him again: "The world is in decline, and the king does not want to be close to Qin but wants to be close to Chu, but only fears that the Qin people are by their side. This heart can only be hidden, and I hope the king knows it."

"How many soldiers in the Wei Kingdom are? What are the warehouses? What are the horses? How many millet is produced per year?" Xiong Jing asked in a straight face.

Xiong Jing asked about the key figures, which were related to the survival of Wei State. Wei Jianyou did not hesitate at all and said, "There are less than 200,000 soldiers in Wei State, and only 6,000 soldiers in Wu, and the rest are five feet tall. The old and weak soldiers. When they fought in the previous year, the warehouses were empty, and so far there were less than 10 million stones of grain; there were even fewer horses, and the whole country was less than 30,000. Only the people of Wei planted millet and wheat, were good at farming, and produced more than 70 million stones of grain a year."

"More than 70 million stones?" Xiong Jing said, the population of Wei State is only 2 million, how can it produce 70 million stones of grain? The population of Chu State is one million more than that of Wei State, and the output is only about 65 million stones, and some are less than in the years.

"The king didn't know that there were many lands in Wei, and there were also wheat planting. Each household could collect 200 stones of grain." Wei said worriedly. "Now, the grain of Wei State is exported to various counties of Chu State, and Wei State is the grain of Chu."

"How much grain is produced in South Korea?" Xiong Jing was shocked by the grain output of Wei State, and he couldn't help but ask about South Korea.

"It's enough. However, the Han people planted wheat a little, and produced 24 million stones of millet a year. The millet in South Korea is now lost to various counties in Chu, especially the Cheng family and Dou family." Wei Jianyou said again.

"The Wei State eats only 40 million stones of millet a year, and the remaining 30 million stones..." The surplus of millet in South Korea is only 40 million stones a year. Xiong Jing is concerned about the surplus of 30 million stones of grain in Wei State. However, it takes nine or ten to lose gold to buy these grains. Xiong Jing cannot afford it alone, and even joins all clans, and even the honorary scholars may not be able to buy it together.

"Reported to the king, the country of Wei often loses grain and wheat from Qi, and Zhao has military affairs, but most of them loses to Zhao. The country of Chu has its own grain and rice, and has lost less to Chu before." Wei Jian said with concern. He was a little surprised why Xiong Jing didn't know the abundant corn of Wei. Starting from the winter of the previous year, the corn of large ships of large ships was exported to Chu, forcing the people of Qi to come to Wei to grab grain.

"Qi State?" Xiong Jing understood a little. It turned out that during the war a few years ago, the Chu army actually ate corn from Wei State.

"That's right." Wei Jian said: "Qi State is narrow and near the sea, with many fields. People also like to plant mulberry and hemp. Fortunately, they have the benefits of fishing and salt. They also make crowns, wear clothes and shoes, and trades to travel the world. The benefits of merchants are dozens of times that of farmers, so the people of Qi are rich and powerful."

"How much does Qi people buy millet and wheat in a year?" Xiong Jing asked again. He was becoming more and more interested in this topic.

"Twenty million stones." Wei Jian said everything, and he said everything. "The people of Qi are very wise. When harvesting wheat and millet, they often buy them to reduce the price. Or they may use the millet in the warehouse to sell them at a low price before harvesting millet."

"Wei State allowed the Qi people to lower the price of grain, and also allowed the Qi people to buy 20 million stones to return to China?" Xiong Jing nodded to express his understanding that there are several tricks of grain merchants in ancient and modern times.

"The Wei State has no benefits from mountains, seas, ponds and lakes. One is the first to enter the city of Guanshi, and the other is to sell millet and wheat. People say that Qi is extravagant, and the same is true for the Wei people. If Wei State does not sell millet, how can the nobles come from precious jade? How can the beauties come from? " Wei Jianyou sighed again after saying that. The Three Jin and Qi are all extravagant. Even if half of the money spent by nobles is used for military affairs and to help the poor, they will not reach this point today.

"Can you know how much millet and wheat are in Zhao State?" Xiong Jing asked about Zhao State.

"The country of Zhao is far more than that of Wei, and it also planted wheat. Its farming is not as good as that of the people of Wei, and there are many fields that are harvested. However, Zhao State's Ding Gu is twice as big as that of Wei, and can accumulate 30 million stones of millet and wheat a year, and accumulate grain for one year in three years." Wei Jian said worriedly.

"Now that I have occupied the land of Yan, how much is the wheat that can accumulate in a year?" Xiong Jing asked.

"I don't know about the ministers of Yan." The corn of Qi relied on the import of Wei, so Wei Jianyou's aunt married to Zhao, so he was familiar with these two countries, and Yan was too far away.

"The State of Qi has 4.6 million Dingkou, and buys 20 million stones of millet a year, and the country..." Xiong Jing was thinking about the millet and wheat production in Qi.

According to traditional experience, each person needs to eat one and a half stones of millet per month, which means 18 stones a year. Qi State purchased 20 million stones of millet from Wei State, which is equivalent to the one-one-one million people in China being raised by Wei State. The remaining 3.5 million people, if the average corn output can reach the level of 150 stones per household, it will probably take about 420,000 households to grow grain. 420,000 households are 2.1 million. If the 2.1 million people are missing, the remaining 2.5 million people may be all in business and work.

Xiong Jing just made a simple calculation, but it was still very scary to get such a number. At the same time, the importance of Qi in his heart plummeted. Qi surrendered to Qin and lacked courage was one reason, and another decisive role should be that there was not much grain accumulation in the country.

There is no war without accumulation of millet. If Qi wants to eat more than 80 million stones of millet and wheat a year, it will be more than 240 million stones in three years. It takes about ten years to accumulate so much millet and wheat. The Qi's millet and wheat could not be self-sufficient. In a hurry, the mulberry trees in the fields were cut off and replaced with millet and wheat, and they could not accumulate much grain in a year.

Thinking of this, Xiong Jing couldn't help but feel a little lucky. Like Qi, the county and towns were relatively independent, but Chu did not attach importance to commerce, so the counties and towns still accumulated a lot of millet. The accumulated millet was mixed with new millet. During the war, it took about a year and a half, and all the millet in the last year was purchased from Qi.

If the State of Chu was like the current State of Qi, it would have to purchase 20 million stones of millet and wheat every year to be self-sufficient in the grain, Gaokuan - the counties and towns of Chu had reduced the order of the king of clay grain in Yingdu. The corn that should have been supported for three years only lasted for one and a half years. How much would the officials of Qi have discounted the order of the king of clay grain in Linzi? How long would the corn that should have been supported for three years last?

Xiong Jing's words were broken halfway. Wei Jianyou didn't know what he had to say, so he could only stretch his neck and wait. After a while, he heard him take a breath and said, "If Wei could sell 30 million stones of millet and wheat to Chu..."

Xiong Jing was stunned again. Even if 30 million stones of millet and wheat cost more than 90,000 yuan per stone. More than 90,000 yuan a year, more than 900,000 yuan is more than 900,000 yuan in ten years. How could the Chu State have so much money?

"I just want to sell more grain and wheat in Wei State to Chu State." Xiong Jing changed his words. "The minimum wheat should be sold to Chu State."

"Wheat?" Wei Jianyou didn't understand why Xiong Jing bought wheat. "The king, the price of wheat is lower than the price of millet, but wheat is difficult to eat, so the poor eat more. Moreover, 30 million stones of millet wheat, but wheat is only more than three million stones."

"Then these three million stones will be sold to the public." Xiong Jing smiled. In the era when stone mills were not popular, wheat, like taro and beans, were mostly food for the poor. The reason why farmers planted was because the land was rotated and the fields that had been harvested were planted casually, and they were also empty.

"Yes." Wei Jianyou agreed without hesitation, and he also made a request: "But the widow wants to buy the giant armor..."

"Jujia?" Xiong Jing shook his head. Wei State's position is unknown and is not within the sales license of Jujia. "Can you build a city?"

"Build a city?" Wei Jianyou was stunned at first, then became a little excited, "But the city of huge reinforced concrete?"

"Of course." Xiong Jing said. "Aren't the King of Wei worried that Daliang would be lost? He was also worried that the Qin people would be buried in the city, so it would be better to convert it into a city of heavy reinforced concrete. It would be like the North City of Daliang, built with heavy reinforced concrete. It was not afraid of the capital city, and it would be possible to build a few feet."

Daliang controlled the waters on the Huai River, and there was a Chize in the northwest, not far from the Yellow River, but the disadvantages of Daliang were also obvious. The Qin people once threatened: "There is a slash of Rongkou, Wei has no Daliang," "If the land attacks, attacks Henoi, and if the water attacks, destroys Daliang." The Wei people agreed with this, so they built the Great Wall in the northwest. But only the Great Wall is in their own hands, the enemy cannot penetrate the city. If the Great Wall is broken by the enemy, the water from Putianze will still be led to the foot of the city to flood the city.

It is different to build a reinforced concrete city. Last year, when Daliang North City was built, some concrete columns near the Gang were built in the water, and they were not afraid of water at all, which made Daliang people amazed. Although some of the ministers suggested that the King of Wei would build the southern city like the North City, the reply was that the cement output was insufficient.

"Good." Wei Jian expressed his grief and joy, "I will tell you to the miserable king today and ask the despise Sikong to give me... "

"Let's find someone to win the title." Xiong Jing mentioned the contractor of Dachu. He seemed to be where to build a bridge. "You can discuss with him the height, thickness, and wider it should be built.

The matter of Jujia will be delayed for several years." Xiong Jing said again: "In a few years, if Qin wants to destroy Wei in more than ten years, the Wei army will definitely have Jujia."

"Thank you, King." Wei Jianyou bowed again. "Wei is the screen of Chu. If Qin wants to destroy Wei in the future, he dares to ask the king to send troops to rescue him."

"Wei State is indeed the screen of Chu State, but the King of Wei..." Xiong Jing shook his head when he said that King of Wei. Now he doesn't believe much except the Yue people in the south, the kings in the north.

"The king should know that the Wei people have always hated Qin, but Wei is weak, and Qin is forced to force each other, so he is helpless." Wei Jianyou rarely said a good word for the King of Wei. "Now that the Qin people attacked Zhao, the signs of the whole world are revealed. How can the Wei people sit and wait for death?"

"Then let's talk first." The conversation was almost done, and Xiong Jing signaled Chang Jiang to see off the guests.
