"After the eldest prince conquers Dafeng Village, what do you plan to do with the rogues in the village?" Qi Xiucheng asked with a wooden face, and the scene suddenly became tense. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

To put it bluntly, most of the military households in this Shanyang County are natives of Shanyang, and so are the rogue bandits.

The rogue people also preach morality, never help the government to act, and even sometimes report to the village, and among the five hundred elite soldiers, there are also many people who have a relationship with the Dafeng Village rogue, and this battle is probably not easy to fight.

Mo Zhao glanced at him and said lightly: "Disperse and co-opt." ”

Qi Xiucheng smiled bitterly, he knew that it would be such an answer, "And then?" The eldest prince can know that they were originally all soldiers in Shanyang County, and then they went up to the mountain to become bandits because they couldn't eat, and if you bring them down, if there is not enough food and grass supply, they will have to rebel sooner or later. ”

Mo Zhao frowned, this is the fundamental reason why bandits are rampant in Shanyang County.

The soldiers have no source of livelihood without arable land, and they can't do business, where can they get the money to supply the soldiers, no matter how high the prestige of the Mo family is, just relying on the words of Mo Zhao, the self-made prince, they can't be full.

"Soldiers can't do business, and it's not that your eldest son can't do business, the county is too worried." Xiao Yu smiled and said his opinion.

Mo Zhao pinched his fingers, he hadn't thought about this idea, but he was born in a martial arts background, where did he understand the way of doing business.

"Isn't Shanyang County a necessary place for westbound business travelers, isn't there a merchant who is willing to pay for a businessman?" Xiao Yu blinked his eyes widely, he was very innocent, this kind of dart was obviously the best choice for Mo Zhao's group of martial artists at the moment.

"yes, I didn't think of that!" Zhu Ning slapped his thigh and stood up, "Madame, this idea is really wonderful!" ”

"You are an official dart bureau, and when the trade route is stabilized, there will naturally be a large number of business travelers to stay and some people will come to open inns, and then you can increase the local business tax, and extract these taxes to supply soldiers and protect local security, and in the long run, a virtuous circle will be formed." Xiao Yu continued, this is the conclusion she came to after a night of hard thinking.

Qi Xiucheng and the three of them were all dumbfounded.

"You, you said you want to collect taxes and supply the soldiers?" General Han swallowed.

The local tax has always been swept away by the Wuwang Palace and the government, and never a penny will be issued to the people, that is, the shallow military salary of the soldiers is not enough to buy three buckets of rice, and Xiaoyu actually said that it is directly supplied to the soldiers!

"You can't be the master of taxes?" Xiao Yu looked at Mo Zhao.

Mo Zhao shook his head, his Mo family is so domineering in Yanzhou, the Mo family is the king, even the Lingding Palace of the Witch King Palace is inferior to the Mo family in Yanzhou.

"Isn't this enough, you have to be good at using resources, Mo Zhao, the tiger skin of the eldest son of the Mo family, don't talk nonsense." The girl laughed.

Qi Xiu became a spirit and looked at Mo Zhao cautiously: "Eldest prince, are you really willing to give the soldiers a salary and silver supply?" ”

"Hair, fifty percent." Mo Zhao happily gave the number.

During his month in Mocheng, he also learned about various basic systems, and a sentence of 50% tax rate was provided to the soldiers, which made General Han take three steps back, almost burst into tears, and kowtowed on the spot: "My subordinates are for thousands of military households in Shanyang County, thank you for the great kindness of the eldest prince." ”

Qi Xiucheng clenched his fists, and his shoulders trembled with excitement.

"If the eldest prince can really fulfill his promise, this hundreds of years of bandit in Shanyang County will definitely end here." His words were sonorous, which made Da Kui, who did not understand Mo Zhao's policy, a spirit.

Since then, does it mean that they can finally live and work in peace?

"In this way, the subordinate officials recommend themselves, but the soldiers can persuade Dafeng Village to surrender without blood, so as to solve the troubles of the eldest prince." Qi Xiucheng hugged his fists and invited himself to Dafeng Village to be a lobbyist.

"Xiu Cheng is from Shanyang, and the second master in Dafeng Village seems to be his cousin, and the eldest prince can send him with confidence." General Han also said.

Mo Zhao nodded, he knew that the Great Black Mountain was steep, although there was no forest to cover it, but the bare rocks were also very infiltrating, it was a typical place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it was naturally good for someone to be willing to lobby.

"If it doesn't work out this time, the lower officials will open the mountain gate at night, ask the eldest prince to lead the troops to ambush, and at midnight the day after tomorrow, he will act when he hears the fire whistle." Qi Xiu is really a natural strategist, and even the situation of lobbying for a strong attack has been designed, which makes Xiao Yu look sideways.

"Shanyang County is really an outstanding person, and there is a strategist like Lord Qi." After Qi Xiucheng left, Xiao Yu took advantage of the time to practice martial arts to chat with Da Kui.

Da Kui scratched his head: "That kid has been a ghost since he was a child, and his whole family was sold to be a garden slave, but he was able to rise to the top and become the head of a private garden, and he also donated money to return to his hometown to become a county minister, but I, Da Kui, don't accept him!" Da Kui wheeled an axe and smiled: "He can't even make a move under my axe." ”

Xiao Yu avoided Da Kui's axe and smiled: "That's not easy. "Such a capable minister can recruit some for Mo Zhao.

In fact, Xiaoyu has always had a faint premonition in her heart that her trip to Shanyang County is not the end of Yanzhou, so she has been quietly helping Mo Zhao secretly accumulate strength in order to plan for the future.

After all, she is not a person who admits defeat, she has been controlled by the Zhao family for so long, and now that she is free from the shackles, she naturally does not want to stop there.

Xiao Yu played the swordsmanship that Mo Zhao taught her, wiped her sweat, and said, "Then another day, you can ask Lord Qi to practice martial arts together." ”

"That kid won't come, he's not in good health, and he fell into trouble when he attacked that dog county order." Da Kui hurriedly covered his mouth again.

Xiao Yu retracted his sword momentum and raised his eyebrows: "Sneak attack? ”

Da Kui smiled: "It's not a secret, the previous dog county order not only forced us military households to pay taxes, but also lied about the number of people to embezzle our salaries, and then we really had no choice, so we ......" Da Kui crossed his neck with one hand.

Xiao Yu sighed, presumably such a unique thing should be Qi Xiucheng's handiwork.

The girl tilted her head and was quite interested, even a little appreciative, in this man who looked ordinary but was resourceful and decisive.

General Han was able to take these five hundred elite soldiers to live in this place for so long, and he could still catch the line of the Zhao family, presumably Qi Xiucheng was mediating in it, and his IQ was naturally self-evident.

"It seems that that smart man doesn't need martial arts." Xiaoyu teased.

"What does that lady do when she learns martial arts?" Da Kui Leng asked, obviously even Qi Xiucheng's kid admitted that this Mrs. Cheng'er is the smartest person here, and what else does she learn martial arts.

"Well, I'm learning to ......" Xiao Yu's smile froze on his face, and he coldly spat out a sentence: "Don't be used." ”

Da Kui didn't react, so he saw Xiao Yu leave with a black face, and took away a dart on the table that appeared at some point.

This is a token of the big boss, she has seen it in the small courtyard before.

"It's a ghost." Xiao Yu snorted coldly and took out the note in the gap between the darts.
