Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Nine: Qi Wan and Lu Zhan
Feng Wu is very terrifying.
She is really good at making trouble.
He holds more than 30% of the wealth in the western frontier, almost 90% of the commercial channels, and also masters all commodity production.
But she actually coveted Weiyang's one acre and two-part land.
Nowadays, the western frontier can be said that Madam Feng waved her hand and every household was afraid.
Then what else she wants to do?
Wei Yang waved.
A hundred people will take a kettle on the roadside to drink two tea, and come over with letters to see him first with military salute.
This is the second time he has seen Wei Xiaolang in four years.
Compared to the tired and despicable faces that often "I am a child", Wei Xiaoguan is less funny and more demeanor. He just stood there, as if he had a very unique style.
That is the deputy general of the guard who holds 100,000 elite soldiers!
"Sir, I'm almost catching up with us." The hundred people couldn't help but turn red in their eyes. They stared at the boy who shocked the world, full of admiration, and more of them were moved.
With his status, how many people can still keep their true hearts?
"I was going to go back to Hami tomorrow, why are you here first?" Wei Yang asked, "How is the old man? Have you been bullied?"
The hundred generals laughed and said, "My whip and who dares to stare at our western military and civilians? The old prince is good at everything, but in the past two years, he has complained more and more. He said that the adults have thrown everything to him and went to be free. However, the prince is under great pressure."
He looked around and leaned closer and said, "The emperor is outside the pass."
Wei Yang raised his eyebrows, did Zhu Youzhen really dare to come to the western border?
"The old prince's life is here to ask, when will the lord return to Hami? Is that treasure still in his hand? How to deal with it?" The hundred people excitedly said.
Wei Yang took the letter, touched it from his sleeve, took out a square sheepskin bag, and threw it out.
thump--
A hundred people were kneeling on the spot.
That's the king's treasure!
"A stone." Wei Yang said, but he was a little excited when he saw Feng Wu's letter. "Look, you can choose a team of thousands of people in a moment and send this stone to the old man. How to deal with him is at will, and it is best to get the treatment we want."
A hundred generals held the sheepskin bag tightly, but he didn't have the courage to open the treasure here.
Wei Yang opened the letter and saw Feng Wu's handwriting.
She asked: "The people from Jiangnan have repeatedly urged me, and there are two meanings: one is to require technology. If I return, they must have fine salt purification technology; the other is to require status. If I refuse to return, they must send someone here to be an official, or they are originally appointed by the imperial court, and they want to make me credit or a white diary. If I ask us to take care of it, how can I refuse it?"
Then he asked again: "Everything is the same at home. Aunt Ye went to Cha Sili to help Madam Gao protect the little princess. Dongfang Bubai and Wang Zhi were both there. The day before yesterday, and the two of them compared each other privately. Wang Zhi was more skilled, and Dongfang Bubai seemed to have some understanding, and his strength suddenly increased. I mean, there is no need to rectify the yard at home and no need to close the restaurant. What do you think?"
Wei Yang was surprised.
Dongfang Bubai actually found the western frontier?
Wang Zhinai was the gold medal thug around the emperor, so why did he escape from the emperor and go to the fork?
What are they trying to do?
"You must go back to Hami early." Wei Yang knew that this was urging him to go home as soon as possible.
But the final announcement of the letter made him feel helpless and funny.
"You are not at home, and I see that the land in the pass is very good. Last year, on the lunar evening, several rich men in the pass came to buy salt. I exchanged ten years of 'regional wholesale agent' for ten years of power to get tens of hectares of land under their name. Due to the drought this spring, many people fled. I ordered people to secretly buy the ground and collect refugees. They obtained 3,000 acres of land in Lintao Prefecture and 3,000 households. They also obtained 800 hectares of land in Lanzhou Prefecture, mostly for officials. The condition was to send fine salt to Xi'an Prefecture for their monopoly. These people were greedy and shameless, which was not a blessing for the local people. I ordered one person to act as an agent and open another fine salt monopoly on the line from Xi'an Prefecture to Jiayuguan. However, the court had to issue salt to the court. There were too many twists and turns. You must make a decision on how to deal with it." Feng Wu said.
Wei Yang is sure that in recent years, Feng Wuding has used the trade means he had briefly mentioned to control the land.
"The story of Qi silk and Lu silk." Wei Yang pondered for a moment and decided to continue to expand the pace of land acquisition.
Only with land and people can the economy be able to help.
However, this method must be noticed by savvy people in the court.
Don’t think that the ancients did not understand economics, and the corrupt scholars of the Ming Dynasty did not understand knowledge.
Take this trade method as an example. Hami merchants used their huge profits to acquire land within the Guan area. This trick appeared as early as the Spring and Autumn Period. Guan Zhong was rich and powerful Qi, and the Lu State next to him was also prosperous and powerful. Qi was like a stunning point. Qi Duke then ordered Guan Zhong to stop all the silks of Qi, which were very famous at that time, to stop production. The whole country only used silk in Lu State, which was more beneficial. Lu State then raised silkworms across the country. Over the past year, Qi no longer purchased silk from Lu State at a high price. However, because Lu State had no farming for a year, it could only buy food from Qi State at a higher price.
"This move was later used on Chu State, which was the earliest record of the ancestors' trade war. How could scholars not know this?!" Wei Yang said in his heart, "However, using western goods to destroy the agricultural economic foundation of the Hexi Corridor, on the surface, gave the imperial court a handle to hold us hostage, but if we tear our faces apart..."
He knew what Feng Wu was thinking.
"As soon as the war broke out, the farmers who had no land were probably another 'Yellow Turban Yellow Chao', 'Fang La Songjiang'." Wei Yang put away the letter and ordered, "Prepare tonight, we will go to Chasil tomorrow."
Everyone was stunned, wouldn’t they go back to Hami?
"The reorganization of Beiting's army has been completed. You should slowly go to the other side of Friendship City." Wei Yang said, "Go to call the Golden Tiger. Tumen will follow me to Hami for three months of training. During this period, he will be responsible for Beiting's defense."
What about civil servants?
"No, the western frontier is a military-controlled place. Before we cultivate a talent team that has turned from the army to the local area, we do not consider using the current power structure. Morigen, please order all the people and order the new first to eighth battalions to be in charge of Beiting. The ninth to twenty-two battalions are ready to set off tomorrow. The large army will return to Hami first, scout camp, engineer camp, Laojuan camp, and Beiting first battalion will follow me. In addition, ask the golden mark to stay in Beiting. After the people of each tribe have completed Beiting, they will build roads from Beiting to Chashili. There must be two. First, first make a rough road that can be used to build a car and then consolidate it layer by layer. There must be willows and ditches on both sides of the road. The standards must be stated; second, who dares to treat the people who work unfairly, and the military law will deal with it; which one will be placed on the employment blacklist, and will never be used after three times." Wei Yang immediately ordered.
Then he said to Rubea, "You are a very kind man and should have a good day. I heard that you and Qiqige are going to get married. Choose a good day and ask Han Que to call me, I want to ask for a wedding wine. In addition, it is really hard for you to carry dozens of kilograms of salt alone, and the quantity is very small. If you are willing, I can protect you. First, call some kind people to get fine salt in Hami. After the fine salt is sold out, you will go back and give money. I wish you can sell fine salt to the north of the desert and let the Ola Khan eat the salt you sold. OK?"
Rubea opened his mouth and grabbed his head and smiled: "I must do it well."
"It's not about doing it well, it's for you to do it yourself. If you don't want to be too tired, you can organize a group of people and be the captain of the first caravan leading to Beiting, as long as you like it." Wei Yang laughed.
Rubea chose the latter without hesitation: "I only work hard and don't do business."
That's fine, too.
