The people live on food!

This is not something that is said casually.

No matter which dynasty it is, it was finally overthrown, and the direct reason was that the common people couldn't eat enough.

In Wang Fugui's view, Dengzhou Mansion is now a stove, and anyone who used to be roasted on it was very uncomfortable.

Because there is a fixed amount of food, there are tens of thousands of households in Dengzhou, and the surrounding areas do not have enough food to eat, and it is difficult to buy enough food to relieve Dengzhou even if they have money.

But if you don't solve the problem of eating, it doesn't make sense for Li Kuan to do anything in Dengzhou.

"Fugui is right, the problem of eating is the first problem that needs to be solved, otherwise there is no point in talking about anything else. This king promised His Majesty that he would turn Dengzhou into a prosperous state city within a year, and naturally there was a perfect plan......"

"Huh? The prince promised His Majesty to make Dengzhou prosperous within a year? ”

Chu Suiliang didn't wait for Li Kuan to finish speaking, so he interjected a sentence very rudely.

Wang Xuance, Wang Fugui and the others also looked at Li Kuan with wide eyes.

Haven't you heard of anything like this before?

How is it possible to turn a state capital that is plagued by hunger and cold into a bustling city in one year?

Dengzhou is not a military town like Liangzhou City, and the population is much larger.

"Yes, so this king only has one year!"

"Lord Wang, this ...... While it's still too late, or ...... Why don't you quickly admit your mistake to Your Majesty......" Chu Suiliang looked at Li Kuan with a tangled expression.

His own prince is too unreliable, a pit man!

"That's right, my lord, if you don't send someone to get off the ship and return to Beijing now, tell Your Majesty that you are joking."

Wang Xuance also felt that this was an impossible task.

His topic was deviated by minutes, but Wang Fugui didn't have time to complain, "It's already very good to keep the people of Dengzhou Mansion from starving to death on a large scale within a year." ”

Although Li Kuan also felt that the task of making Dengzhou rich within a year was a bit of a pitfall, the broken system had already demanded this, and the consequences of not being able to do it were very serious, so he had to go on it.

So no matter how Chu Suiliang persuaded them, he didn't let go.

The group came to Dengzhou Mansion in a tangled atmosphere.

Although an official document from the imperial court was sent to Dengzhou Mansion in advance, the Dengzhou Assassin did not know when Li Kuan would arrive.

So when Li Kuan and his entourage waited for the Nuoda fleet to enter Dengzhou, there was no team to greet them.

……

Chang'an City Wuheju.

"Brother Zheng, this time Li Kuan volunteered to go to Dengzhou for disaster relief like he had a brain disease, and we will sit back and wait for the day when he hits his head and bleeds. Here, let's have a toast. ”

The eldest grandson Chong got the matter of Li Kuan's going to Dengzhou Mansion from the eldest grandson Wuji early, and today he drank with Zheng Hai and couldn't help but celebrate.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu is always competing with the people for profit, and it's a good thing for him to hit a wall."

Xingyang Zheng's family has suffered heavy losses in papermaking, printing and book sales this year, and some time ago it was forced to dispose of the books printed by Zheng's shopkeeper at a low price, which can be described as a blood loss of tens of thousands of dollars.

Although in the end, Li Kuan avoided the collapse of all other businesses by disclosing the new papermaking and printing methods, and he could not have a sense of revenge, Zheng Hai was still very aggrieved in his heart.

This thing feels like being slapped in the face and sending the other side of the face to be beaten.

"The grain merchants in Chang'an City are basically inextricably linked with various families, Dengzhou Mansion first suffered a continuous drought, and now it has suffered a hurricane disaster, let's join forces to control it, don't let the grain be transported to Dengzhou, I want to see what tricks Li Kuan can play in Dengzhou."

"Brother Eldest Sun's proposal is very good, our rice shop under Cui's will definitely not let a grain of corn flow to Dengzhou."

"My rice shop in Fanyang Lu's will not let any grain have a chance to go to Dengzhou."

"You guys are right, it's best to let those businessmen stop selling supplies to Dengzhou recently. Datang is so big, and everyone doesn't have to go to Dengzhou. ”

……

Wendeng County is the seat of the state capital of Dengzhou Prefecture, but Li Kuan did not live in the Assassin's Mansion, but lived in the county government of Wendeng County, and as for the county order, he was naturally driven to live in other places.

"Lord Wang, that one was in a difficult situation just now, and his subordinates thought he was an old slippery head."

Chu Suiliang stood in front of Li Kuan with a serious face.

Li Shimin appointed Li Kuan as the governor of Dengzhou, which can basically be regarded as the number one leader in Dengzhou.

Although the governor is strictly regarded as a military position, Li Kuan received it as a prince, and Li Shimin directly granted him full authority to be responsible for the military and political affairs of Dengzhou Mansion, which can be regarded as a trust.

Chun Yu is embarrassed as the history of Dengzhou, when he heard that Li Kuan was coming, no matter whether he was happy or not, he would definitely come to visit.

"The Chun Yu family is the head snake in Dengzhou Mansion, and it was originally difficult for Chun Yu to have the final say in all affairs, but now that there is one more person in charge, it is inevitable that he will not be happy. And a local warlord like him, who rose from the turmoil at the end of the Sui Dynasty, if he hadn't slipped his head, how could he have survived to this day? ”

Since Li Kuan chose to come to Dengzhou, he naturally wanted to do some understanding of the situation in Dengzhou.

And Dengzhou Thorn History, as the local leader, is the object that Li Kuan needs to know.

After all, everything needs to be done.

And a local snake like Chun Yuyan, if he goes against you, it will undoubtedly bring unnecessary trouble to Li Kuan's task.

"The most important thing in Dengzhou is Wendeng County and Huang County, then Chun Yu is a native of Huang County, and Wendeng County is the seat of the state capital, it can be said that in these two counties, Chun Yu is simply covering the sky with one hand!"

Wang Xuance also looked worried.

"What are you afraid of, after all, the Chun Yu family is just a local family, and it doesn't have much influence in the court, if he knows the current affairs, this king doesn't mind taking him to make a fortune together, if he doesn't know the current affairs...... Hey! This king has a hundred ways to make them unlucky! ”

Hearing Li Kuan say this, Chu Suiliang couldn't help but shudder.

Don't look at your own prince, who is only in his teens, but with all kinds of means, he can't shoot a horse by himself.

"Lord Wang, in fact, in my opinion, it is not unreasonable to say that it is difficult to say. You asked him to gather 200 fishermen to go to sea, which is probably difficult. ”

Lin Ran was about to speak next to him, but finally couldn't help but speak, "When I was a child, I grew up on the beach in the south of the Yangtze River, and the fishermen in the village basically only fished within a few hundred steps along the coast, and few people dared to go farther away. ”

Li Kuan: "Don't these fishermen just rely on the sea to eat?" What kind of fish can you catch in just a few hundred steps by the sea? ”

Lin Ran: "You can't catch any fish, but if you are far away, not only will you not be able to catch more fish, but even your life will be in danger." After all, these fishermen only have rudimentary sampan boats, unlike us who drive big boats. ”

"Why don't they put a few families together and use a bigger boat to catch fish?" Li Kuan asked a question that seemed to Lin Ran to be ignorant.
