Chapter 899 Chaotang
899 Xiao Quan asked what to do if those prisoners of war. Now those prisoners of war consume a lot of food and other resources. I don’t know how to deal with it.
And there is no need for so many people on the construction site, so we can’t keep it all the time. Hu Hui heard it and said it was simple. Everyone looked at him, even Hu Hao looked at Hu Hui!
"How easy?" Hu Hao said while sitting there.
"Brother, let them farm. Anyway, our empire has a lot of land, and they don't have food. When they come here, they farm. Now we provide them with food, and we also have agricultural equipment.
Let them farm, and we will give them a reward of 100 kilograms per acre, and the rest will be returned to the empire. Think about it, there are so many prisoners of war. If each of them grows 50 acres of land, how much food can they bring to the empire, we will also issue certificates to the prisoners of war.
That is to say, they can only move in this place. Once they go to other places, they will be shot when they find it. Look at them, they will definitely not run away. They will definitely farm. After farming, they can sell the food they have, or they can keep it themselves. Even if we are more kind, they can send it home!" Hu Hui stood there and said. When the others heard it, they nodded!
"Not to say, it's OK. We don't have to pay anyway. I think it's not OK to give 100 kilograms, so we give them 30% of the land per mu. In fact, it's a lot of food, and they're enough to support a lot of people!" President Liu said.
"I just provide an idea. How to solve the problem, you have the final say. Anyway, we cannot raise those prisoners of war in vain. We must raise refugees, and we must also raise prisoners of war. How can our empire be thanks?" Hu Hui said while standing there.
"Well, King Xin said it well, what do you think?" Hu Hao nodded with satisfaction and said to them.
"I think it's OK. If they farm in other parts of the Central Region, no matter what, our empire will definitely need to store a lot of food in the next few years. If they farm, it will be very beneficial to us!" Xiao Quan said standing there.
"Brother, what do you mean?" Hu Hao sat there and said.
"Xiaohui said it very well. We can't raise them in vain. At present, farming is OK. There is another one. Did you think of it? It's just digging a hole. We give them wages and hundreds of dollars a month. That's fine. In this way, the empire will save a lot of money!" Zhang Debiao sat there and said.
"That's fine, I have to let them work anyway!" Hu Hui said standing below.
"Okay, the Executive Yuan will work with the military to formulate management measures for prisoners of war and use those prisoners of war. The empire needs them to work now!" Hu Hao nodded and said to the people below.
"Yes!" Liu Yuzi and Zhang Debiao nodded immediately and said.
"Your Majesty, there is another thing I want to say, it is the issue of this draft. Your Majesty, you said before, let the generals choose first, I think this is not possible!" At this time, Li Jinsong stood up and said to Hu Hao.
"Why can't it work?" Hu Hao asked as he heard Li Jinsong.
"Your Majesty, the draft was originally mainly chosen for Your Majesty, but now you ask the generals to choose first. Of course, I also know that Your Majesty, you are considering for your subordinates. I hope that all the generals can think about it. Let's choose first, what else can you leave on Your Majesty?
Your Majesty can consider us, and we also need to consider our Majesty. My suggestion is that you can choose a few first, after all, there are thousands of beautiful girls, and there must be many good ones. Your Majesty, you must choose a few first, so that we generals can choose!" Li Jinsong stood there and spoke.
"Yes, I want to say this too. Your Majesty, you must choose a few first, let the generals choose first, which is not in accordance with the rules!" Xiao Quan also stood up.
"I also agree with General Li's proposal. Your Majesty, you must choose first!" Jiang Kai also spoke.
"Yes, Your Majesty, you have to choose a few first!" the other generals said.
"Hey, you guys, I didn't want so many women, so I didn't have so much energy!" Hu Hao sighed when he heard this.
"That won't work. There is no good news in the harem yet. The people across the country are anxious. Everyone hopes to hear that Your Majesty, you have children. In this way, the people have a clear mind!" Xiao Quan said while standing there.
"Yes, Your Majesty, there is no news of your offspring yet, and the people are very worried!" Luo Xin also spoke.
"Well. OK, I will choose a few at that time. There are so many generals in the empire that have not been married yet. This is not enough. If people from other countries see it, they think that the generals of our empire will not find a wife, and they will also say to me at that time.
I don’t care about my subordinates at all, so I hope that all single generals can choose the right woman as their wives!” Hu Hao nodded and said when he heard them say this.
"Your Majesty, there is another thing. Yesterday, the President of the Executive Yuan of Zhongling Kingdom sent a telegram from Liang Qiming, hoping to exchange 5 billion yuan of currency with our empire. We dare not agree to this matter!" Liu Yuzi said.
"Swap currency?" Hu Hao asked when he heard Liu Yuzi.
"Yes. From the current perspective, we are at a disadvantage when we exchange currency with them. The currency of the empire has always been very strong. Now all countries in the central region have their own currency.
If Zhongling Kingdom wants to exchange 5 billion Han currency with us at the current exchange rate, now we have not suffered any loss because we are also purchasing Zhongling Kingdom's materials and need to use the currency of their empire.
But the currency of their empire has been depreciating, and has depreciated by 20% last month to now. In the future, if their frontlines have not won, I guess it will still depreciate!
So, when we exchanged with them, we obviously suffered a loss. This is the first one, and the second one is that they want to use our currency to stabilize their country's currency. Now their country's currency depreciates very quickly, even gold is useless.
After all, their country's currency issuance far exceeds their gold reserves, but if they have 5 billion of the currency of our empire,
Then, it can play a stable role for the entire Zhongling country market. They just want us to agree and want to sign a long-term agreement with us, saying that in the next year, they are willing to exchange 20 billion yuan of currency with us!" Liu Yuzi said.
"Isn't this any benefit to our empire that does not have? What's the benefit if we change it?" Zhang Debiao heard it and asked.
"There is no benefit, because we purchase items from Zhongling Kingdom, and we purchase them from merchants from Zhongling Kingdom. They would rather ask us for Chinese coins!" Liu Yuzi said.
"What else can I change?" Zhang Debiao said immediately when he heard this.
"We did not agree or refused. Their dean Liang Qiming said that the emperor of their empire will discuss with His Majesty, you!" Liu Yuzi said to Hu Hao.
"The Executive Yuan's specific suggestions?" Hu Hao asked looking at him.
"No!" Liu Yuzi looked at Hu Hao and said!
"Yeah!" Hu Hao nodded when he heard this.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to change it. We all know that the Han currency of the Empire is already the strongest currency in the whole world. Even the coalition forces want to get the currency of our side!" Li Jinsong stood there and spoke.
"Well, that's fine. I'll consider it. Things are not as simple as you think!" Hu Hao heard it and said to them.
"This, your majesty, do you mean to change?" Liu Yuzi looked at Hu Hao and asked.
"We need to get benefits if we change it or not. If we don't get benefits, there is no need!" Hu Hao heard it and did not answer directly!
"Your Majesty, I have another thing here. I suggest that the empire needs to expand 20 million troops. The empire's territory is too large, and judging from the current situation, the war in the central region will not stop immediately. Therefore, the military needs to formulate a long-term military development plan as soon as possible!" Li Jinsong stood up and said to Hu Hao.
"Well, let me answer this first. General Li, the future troops of the Empire will be maintained at around 50 million, the other army is 40 million, the navy is about 7 million, and the air force is 3 million!
If peace begins in the central region, the empire will maintain more than 25 million troops!" Zhang Debiao said.
"Oh, then I have no objection!" Li Jinsong nodded immediately after hearing Zhang Debiao say this.
"The training plan is now being implemented by the military headquarters, so don't worry about the lack of troops in our empire. What we need to do now is to make our troops form combat effectiveness. We cannot let new recruits go to the front line to die, they need to be trained,
Another thing is that the generals of the Empire are still not enough. Fortunately, we now have enough opportunities to train soldiers on the front line. So, at present, there is no problem in cultivating generals of the Empire!" Hu Hao sat on it and spoke.
"Yes!" The others heard it and nodded!
"Is there anything else?" Hu Hao sat there and looked at them and asked.
The ministers below heard this and shook their heads!
"Okay, since it's okay, it's still late now, so let's go to court. When the general, the premier, General Li Jinsong, General Xiao Quan, General Jiang Kai, General Luo Xin, General Weng Tao, General Wu Kexiao, General Bai Ye, General Lu Guangsheng, and General Ye Zifeng stayed!
I have other things to discuss with you!" Hu Hao said while sitting there.
"Yes!" Those people nodded when they heard this! "Okay, retreat!" Hu Hao stood up as he said.
"Greatly send your Majesty!" They heard it and immediately knelt down and said, while Hu Hao went down from the side stairs.
After arriving below, Hu Hao went to the side hall. At this time, Zhang Debiao and the others had already arrived, and they didn't know what Hu Hao was asking them for!
