Chapter 9 Shangguan
Under the auspices of Yang Yun, the workshop officially started operation two days later, but the initial manufacturing capacity is really flattering, which is also related to the shortage of raw materials.
On the same day, an envoy sent by the Jiannan Jiedu envoy arrived in Shifang County from Yizhou.
Su County Commander sent someone to invite Yang Yun to meet, and in the past few days, Yang Yun has learned about the local situation in Datang and Jiannan Province.
After Li Longji ascended the throne, he first used Yao Chong and Song Jing as ministers, and then Zhang Jiazhen, Zhang Shuo, Li Yuanhong, and Du Xian as ministers. They each have their own strengths, and they are loyal to their duties, which makes the government full of vitality. Moreover, Li Longji was also able to accept advice with humility at this time, so his politics was clear and the political situation was stable.
In terms of military affairs, the imperial court in the early Tang Dynasty set up a chief or chief governor in important prefectures and towns to be in charge of military affairs. In the seventh year of Wude, the governor was changed to the governor of the capital, and the governor was the governor, and the governor's office and the governor's office were set up, and the military affairs of several states or dozens of states were in charge. In the second year of Yifeng, Gaozong ordered Liu Renliang to be the envoy of Taohe Town, and led a large army to garrison Tibet to resist Tibet. Prior to this, whenever there was a war, the army was recruited, the general was temporarily ordered, and after the war, the soldiers returned to the guard, and the general was returned to the court, and was not stationed in a certain area for a long time. Starting from Liu Ren, the general began to hold the precedent of stationing heavy troops in the border areas for a long time.
In the first year of Ruizong Jingyun, the imperial court took Xue Ne, the ambassador of Youzhou Town, as the general of Zuo Wuwei and the governor of Youzhou, and in the second year of Jingyun, he took the heir of He Pao Yan as the governor of Liangzhou, and filled the envoy of the west section of the river, and the name of the festival was officially established.
Since the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, the important military places along the border in the northwest of the Tang Dynasty have almost all set up jiedu envoys, and jiedu envoys usually serve as the envoys of the economic strategy, branch, camp, transshipment, and supervision of the areas under their jurisdiction, so that the power is increasingly heavy, and the status of various affairs such as civil affairs, finance, justice, and supervision within the jurisdiction gradually overrides the state and county, and the local administrative division has actually changed from the state and county two-level system to the three-level system.
In the twenty-first year of Kaiyuan, that is, the year when Yang Yun came to Datang, Li Longji divided Datang into fifteen provinces, each of which was assigned to interview envoys, who were in charge of inspecting prisons and supervising state and county officials, and had the power to engage in cheap work.
The current Jiannan Jiedu envoy is named Wang Yu, before taking up this position, he was one of the nine secretaries of the DPRK and the general Zuo Jinwu, who was in a high position, and he also served as the interview envoy of Jiannan Province, and the real military and political power was grasped.
It should be noted that the festival and the interview are all envoys, and the official office is called the embassy and the shogunate, and its subordinates are called the shogunate, among which the shogunate has deputy envoys, supporting envoys, judges, scriveners, pushers, and looking officials.
Yang Yun met Sun Deneng in the county office.
It was a burly, slightly wealthy middle-aged man with fair skin and a hooked nose, giving it a sinister and treacherous feel.
Since meeting Su County Ling's introduction, Sun Deneng has not looked at Yang Yun squarely.
When he arrived at the back hall of the county ya, Sun Deneng unceremoniously said to Su County: "The marshal has read your letter, and he has sent an old man to tell you, asking you to recruit local people and cooperate with the 1,000 government troops sent by Hanzhou to pacify the Nanban within the year." ”
Su Xian Ling couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard this, "The barbarians are scattered in the western states and counties of Jiannan Province, they are ferocious and arrogant, how can they be pacified in a short time?" ”
Sun Deneng frowned coldly: "You dare to disobey the order of the marshal?" ”
Su Xianling's face was pale, as uncomfortable as eating a fly, obviously he skipped the history of the Hanzhou assassin and the Jiannan Jiedu to make Wang Yu show his merits and offend some people, so he was treated like this. He thought that he had made a great contribution, and he was only waiting for his promotion to make a fortune, but now he realized that he had received a drudgery.
Sun Deneng glanced at Yang Yun: "Didn't you say that there are masters to help?" With the permission of the marshal, you can continue to hire this master, and as for military supplies, etc., the official will send someone to contact you, but you still need to raise the majority of them yourself. ”
Su County Ling wanted to cry without tears.
Sun Deneng's expression was full of disdain, and he waved his sleeves impatiently: "This official will only stay in Shifang for one day, and he will leave early tomorrow morning...... The marshal has been very busy lately and doesn't like to listen to the nagging of the people below. As for what little real person you are talking about? Hehe. ”
In the end, Sun Deneng glanced at Yang Yun again, and walked away without even asking Yang Yun what he was capable of.
Yang Yun didn't talk to Sun Deneng.
He can see that Sun Deneng looks down on him at all, or classifies him as a charlatan, after all, not everyone in the imperial court believes in things like Taoism, and it has long been said in the "Analects".
Su County ordered to go out to see each other off, and returned to the back hall after half a day, and said to Yang Yun with some embarrassment: "Xiao Zhenren, the commander asked the official to lead the troops to pacify the barbarians around Hanzhou, but now there is not only a shortage ......of men and horses, but also no weapons and materials, what do you think?" ”
Yang Yun spread his hands: "I will help if I can, but I can't help when I can." ”
Su Xian Ling pulled Yang Yun's sleeve: "Without the help of a little real person, where does this official have the ability to be barbaric?" I thought that the imperial court would reward him, but who knows...... Alas! Isn't this asking for trouble? ”
Yang Yun couldn't help but feel sorry for Su County, but there was some truth he understood, any way of the world doesn't mean that if you have the ability or make a contribution, you will definitely be reused, and if you go against the will of the person in power, people will make you feel better? Your Su County Order is just suffering because you don't know each other, no wonder others.
Su Xian Ling's eyes were eager: "If the Lingshi can come to help, it must be peaceful, I don't know how to visit the immortal master and invite him to the old man to go out of the mountain?" ”
Yang Yun thought that Su Xianling had recognized the reality, but at this time he realized that the other party kicked his nose in the face, and immediately rejected with an indifferent face: "Shizun has traveled all over the world, and there is no fixed place to live, so it is difficult to say whether he will return to Shu or not...... Su County's order still doesn't want to count on the master. ”
Su County Ling did not doubt what Yang Yun said, and his face was full of loss: "Then the official will go back and ask the commander to send more men and horses, and cooperate with the barbarians with elite soldiers." I also bothered Xiao Zhenren to help make more charms these days, and the official was grateful. ”
……
……
Yang Yun hurriedly left the county office.
He knew that if he didn't leave, he might be embarrassed to do something, and at this time, Su County Ling was already sick and rushed to the doctor.
Back in the workshop, Lin Geng and the others were preparing materials in full swing, and when they saw Yang Yun coming back, they all gathered one by one, and at this time, a large number of people gathered in the courtyard.
"Xiao Zhenren, County Lieutenant Hu said, these are all invited to help with the help, and there are not enough people for you to order." Lin Geng said with a smile.
Yang Yun said: "Just send the materials over with all the preparations, there won't be too many people here." The manufactured things cannot be stored casually, they must be kept away from the lamp, and once ignited, the consequences are unimaginable. ”
Lin Geng said with a smile: "This Hu County Lieutenant has long thought of it, isn't this an independent warehouse has been opened up in the west?" No fire is allowed around the storehouse, and no one can afford to do anything that happens. ”
That night, Yang Yun mixed all the existing materials into gunpowder and asked Lin Geng to take people to the warehouse.
And he stayed in the courtyard of the workshop, looking up at the starry sky with nothing to do, thinking about how to survive after leaving Shifang County.
He had already intended to leave Shifang as soon as possible.
Now the Jiannan Jiedu envoy intends to let the Shifang County Commander pacify the Nanban, but the Su County Commander does not have much ability, and he will definitely come to harass him when the time comes, which is contrary to his original intention of making money as soon as possible.
"I have that time, it's better to go to Luoyang to find Yang Yuhuan earlier."
"Time waits for no one, if Yang Yuhuan meets Shouwang Li Mao, there will not be many places where I can provide her with help, and her reliance on me will not be too strong."
"I don't have much money on my body, it's hard to take those silk cloths on the road, gold and silver are valuables these days, it's hard to see in this small place in Shifang, if there are things that are both valuable and light, it would be good to carry them with you."
Yang Yun was very depressed, all he could take away now was the few pieces of money sent by Su County, at most he would be entangled in a coil, and when he arrived in Luoyang, he had to play another gong and drum and open another stove, and he had to consider the matter of starting a second business a few days after he arrived in the Tang Dynasty.
"It's best to get more contacts and resources before leaving, but it really can't really help them level the Nanban...... Isn't it just some uncivilized alien race? Isn't it good to recruit An? ”
"But what if the barbarian doesn't settle down and puts my own life into it? Reincarnated as a human being? ”
Yang Yun stood up and walked back and forth in the courtyard twice, but he still couldn't make up his mind, and he always felt that he couldn't walk too hastily, as if something was not done.
"Should we find the girl who mysteriously disappeared that day? If she also has superpowers, keeping her by her side is a good helper, but if it's just me thinking too much, staying is just a waste of time. ”
