| Summary | "夢溪筆談, Volume 11-16" by Kuo Shen is a historical account presumably written during the late Song Dynasty. This work collects detailed observations and insights about governance, economics, military strategy, and societal practices of the time, reflecting the complexities of administration and the interplay of various state functions. The opening of this volume discusses the reforms in the management of tea taxation and grain distribution, revealing complex bureaucratic methods adopted to increase revenues. It details the effectiveness of certain officials in implementing these changes after periods of disruption from external threats. Key figures like Chen Shu are highlighted for their roles in revitalizing the economic systems, while anecdotal evidence illustrates the practices deemed effective or flawed within local governance and judiciary matters. This detailed account not only serves as a record of administrative strategies but also offers insights into the challenges faced in maintaining order and security during a tumultuous period.
