"Do you have a way to see results in the short term?"

Wang Shangde asked in surprise.

You must know that at Zhao Yu's age, it is already a very remarkable thing to be able to put forward the two strategies of 'military market' and 'Tuntian', although the policy of Tuntian is slow to take effect, especially for Wannan, who is now fleeing from civilians and empty, it may take a few years to attract enough people to implement the policy of Tuntian.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Zhao Yu, it is caused by the mistakes he Wang Shangde made before, so even if the results are slow, Wang Shangde still decided to follow the suggestions put forward by this kid and honestly rebuild the tuntian, at least so that the army under his command will not be troubled by food again in a few years.

But the kid in front of him said that he still had a way to see ready-made food in the short term?

Wang Shangde was really shocked, and couldn't help but ask again: "Boy, what's the way, say it quickly!" ”

I saw Zhao Yu arching his hand towards Wang Shangde, and Zhengse said: "It's very simple, just use the military market." …… The general can tell the merchants that the official income of the general's city is converted into grain, and if the general is in urgent need of food, he can even adopt the method of 'concession' to induce those merchants to transport more grain for emergencies. For example, if a merchant promises to buy 100,000 stone of grain for the general, the general can reduce his market tax for a year, although the general buys the 100,000 stone grain at a parity price, those merchants have no profit at all, and even counting labor and travel, they still lose, but in the long run, with the scale of the military market, the city tax for one year is less, and those businessmen will make money no matter what they think, after all, for the military market, such as wine, is in short supply, and it can be sold out when it is transported to the military market, and there is no need to delay at all. They only need to continuously transport alcohol and other goods to the military market, how much cost does this save? How much time is saved? Considering the size of the military market, even if those merchants knew that it was a loss to transport grain, they would be willing to help the general transport a large amount of grain. …… The reason why I don't emphasize this matter is only because I have heard that in recent years, there has been a general drought in the world, and there is a shortage of food in various places, and those businessmen will naturally find ways to buy grain from all over the world and sell it to the military market here for the sake of the general's profits, and this will inevitably affect the grain prices in other places and exacerbate the rise in grain prices in other places, so I am not suggesting that unless the general is really short of food, this trick can be used to deal with emergencies, otherwise, I think the general should pay attention to the matter of tuntian, which can not only increase the army's income, but also fill the army's granary. It can also stabilize the hearts of the people in Nanyang County, which is the best policy. ”

"......," Wang Shangde nodded thoughtfully.

With more than 100,000 or 200,000 troops in his hands, he is indeed in a situation of military food embarrassment all year round, and he is eager to get more food, but as Zhao Yu said, if the price is to affect other counties and counties, it is indeed not worth it - Wannan is in a mess, and the imperial court is still turning a blind eye at present, but if it affects other counties, not only the county guards and county magistrates in those places will jointly impeach him, I am afraid that even the imperial court will reprimand him for this.

But in any case, this is also a hole card, which can allow him to gather a large amount of food in a short period of time in an emergency, at least in the future, there will be no such thing as running out of military rations and army riots on his side.

"Military Market...... Looks like we're going to have to find a way to get the military market up first.'"

Thinking in his heart, Wang Shangde nodded and said, "Boy, it's good, you're good." Although it has not yet achieved results, the two strategies of 'military market' and 'tuntian' you mentioned really moved Wang. Wang said just now, as long as you can solve my troubles, I will promise you a reward, I said it. …… What do you want? ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yu thought about it, and then slowly turned his head to look at Kong Jian who was sitting on the side, and a malicious smile slowly appeared on his face.

“……”

Looking at the ill-intentioned smile on Zhao Yu's immature face, Kong Jian chuckled in his heart.

Sure enough, I saw Zhao Yu arching his hand towards Wang Shangde, frowning slightly and saying: "General Wang, the kid thinks that this Kong county guard is not worthy of the truth, and I am afraid that he is not qualified for the post of county guard." ”

"This kid...... There's a lot of revenge, too."

Glancing at Zhao Yu, Wang Shangde turned his head and glanced at Kong Jian.

His glance suddenly made Kong Jian sit on pins and needles, he swallowed his saliva, and said: "General Wang, it was Wang Taishi who sent his subordinates to ......."

It's good that he didn't mention it, but as soon as he mentioned Wang Taishi, Wang Shangde's face immediately sank, and he said coldly: "Kong Jian, what do you mean by this?" Move out of the Taishi to threaten me? Do you think I dare not dismiss you from your duties as a county warden? ”

Hearing this, Kong Jian was frightened and the ground was as earthy as the color, and he quickly got up and walked to the center of the house, standing beside Zhao Yu, and explained to Wang Shangde in a cold sweat: "The general is angry, and the subordinate will never dare to threaten the general......"

"Forgive you for not having the guts!"

Wang Shangde snorted coldly and arrogantly, and then said casually: "Fang Cai's words, you also heard it, you have a grudge with Zhao Xianghou's father and son, I didn't want to interfere, but this son did solve Wang's troubles." Wang has always done what he says, and since this kid wants me to remove you from your official position, I will do what he wants...... Do you have any complaints? ”

How dare Kong Jian have any complaints about generals like Wang Shangde, who have more than 100,000 or 200,000 troops, and his face is like ashes when he hears this.

You must know that in this era of paying attention to integrity, as long as Wang Shangde promised this in front of Zhao Yu today, then this General Wang will fulfill his promise, otherwise Zhao Yu will ask rhetorically in the future, and Wang Shangde's own face will not be able to hang up.

Wang Shangde's own face is important, or is he Kong Jian important, think about it, you also know that Wang Shangde will choose the former.

It is no exaggeration to say that Wang Shangde's sentence has basically broken Kong Jian's career in Nanyang County, as long as Wang Shangde is still in Nanyang County in the future, Kong Jian will not want to be reinstated, even if Wang Ying and Wang Taishi come forward, it may not work - of course, how could the dignified Wang Taishi have an unpleasant quarrel with his nephew Wang Shangde for Kong Jian, a dispensable chess piece?

When Kong Jian was discouraged, he heard Zhao Yu beside him whisper: "I said, don't worry, I'll clean you up later, Kong Jun Shou...... Oh, sorry, you're not a county guard anymore. ”

His voice was neither light nor heavy, but in fact, everyone in the room could basically hear it, but no one cared, whether it was Wang Shangde, Peng Yong, or Liu Wei and Luyang Xianghou.

For Wang Shangde and Peng Yong, this is just a matter of becoming a king and defeating a king, Kong Jian lost to Zhao Yu, the son of the Marquis of Luyang, and the matter is as simple as that.

For Liu Wei and the Marquis of Luyang, Kong Jian will continue to serve as the county guard of Nanyang, which is not a good thing for them and for them in Luyang County.

"Kong Wenju, Kong Wenju, all of this is your own fault!"

Looking at Kong Jian, whose face was pale, Liu Jian secretly sneered.

If Kong Jian is an honest official, then he can still come forward to intercede for him - of course, if this is the case, the second son will not retaliate against this Kong Jian - but Kong Jian should not, should not, should not implicate his resentment against the Luyang townsman in Luyang County, and try to bring down Luyang County, which is absolutely intolerable for Liu Wei.

Whether it is the entrustment of the former county magistrate Yin Song before leaving, or the countless villagers in the county who call him Liu Gong, or his duties as a state minister, Liu Jian cannot sit idly by and watch scum like Kong Jian in a high position.

However, to everyone's surprise, Kong Jian, who was still looking like ashes a moment ago, didn't know what he thought, and the next moment he arched his hand and said to Wang Shangde: "General, Kong will never dare to be dissatisfied with your decision, but there is one thing Kong thinks that the general needs to be reminded." ”

Saying that, he didn't wait for Wang Shangde to ask, so he said to himself: "Since the general only promised him, and this kid chose to take revenge on Kong, then the matter of levying 200,000 yuan and 20 grains to Luyang County cannot be exempted!" …… Otherwise, the general made two promises to him, and Kong was not convinced! ”

"This guy...... Until now, you still refuse to let me go of Luyang County?"

Liu Wei gritted his teeth hatefully.

At this time, beside Kong Jian, Zhao Yu glanced at Kong Jian with some surprise, surprised that Kong Jian could still think of a way to save himself.

"Hmm."

Wang Shangde stroked his beard and pondered for a moment, looked at Zhao Yu and then at Kong Jian, and then said to Zhao Yu: "This is ...... Boy, what do you say? It is not a trivial matter to let a county guard lose his office, even if it is Wang, he has to take a certain risk, but Wang will do what he says, as long as you insist, I will do it. However, as the price of the risk, you Luyang County must lend me some money and food. Don't think that I protect Kong Jian, after all, he is a dignified county guard, and he is worth the price. …… What do you say? ”

"This General Wang is really digging out his mind to make money and food......

Zhao Yu was a little speechless in his heart.

He didn't think that Wang Shangde was protecting Kong Jian, after all, Wang Shangde had just scolded Kong Jian, and he could see it clearly, and he could only say that this Kong Jian really had some intelligence.

He turned his head to look at Kong Jian.

"You can choose to take revenge on Kong." Noticing Zhao Yu's gaze, Kong Jian pretended to be calm.

Hearing this, Zhao Yu sneered and sneered: "Heh, come on, do you think I don't dare to choose you to lose your office?" Thinking about it, I also know that you hate my father and my Lu Yang to the core, let you continue to serve as the county guard, and you will inevitably target me Lu Yang everywhere in the future, rather than this, I would rather pay the price of 200,000 dollars and food than be removed from your official position! …… Besides, do you think I have no other way to get General Wang to waive the 200,000 yuan of grain? ”

As soon as he heard this, it was difficult for Kong Jian to pretend to be calm, and when he saw Zhao Yu bowing to Wang Shangde and seemed to be about to speak, he was shocked, and immediately said: "Boy, you instigated General Wang to remove Kong from his official position, this is a despicable trick, and it is not capable. …… Hmph, think about it carefully, back then, your father also used the help of Mao Jue, the county commander of Yexian County, to set up tricks to harm me, worthy of being a father and son, it is really despicable! ”

"Huh?"

Zhao Yu couldn't help but turn his head a little reluctantly, looked at Kong Jian and sneered: "Despicable? You still have the face to say that? ”

At this time, everyone in the room also looked at Kong Jian with disdain, including Wang Shangde.

After sneering at Kong Jian for a while, Zhao Yu nodded at Kong Jian and said, "Okay, then it's as you wish!" ”

As he spoke, without waiting for Kong Jian to react, he arched his hand towards Wang Shangde and said, "General Wang, I choose to exempt the general from collecting money and grain from my Luyang." ”

"Yes. But ......"

Wang Shangde's tone seemed to carry a little regret: "Just let go of your family's enemies?" You also said just now that if he continues to serve as the county guard, he will inevitably target you Lu Yang. ”

"Of course not." Zhao Yu shook his head and said, "Next, the kid will try his best to persuade General Wang to persuade General Wang to remove himself from the post of county guard. ”

Seeing that Zhao Yu did not choose to take revenge on himself, Kong Jian breathed a sigh of relief, and was once again reminded by Zhao Yu's words.

At this time, Zhao Yu also glanced at Kong Jian, learned the usual tone of his father Luyang Xianghou, and said calmly: "Look at it carefully, even if it is dignified, I can take off your official position!" ”

“……”

Kong Jian opened his mouth, and for a moment, he felt as if he had seen the Luyang townsman when he was a child.

No!

This kid is better than him......

More bold!
