After Ma Shang left, Chen Ye lay on the bed and fell asleep beautifully, and slept directly until noon, knowing that the official called him, Chen Ye opened his eyes.
"My lord, we're here to bring you food." The two officials put the food on the table and said.
Chen Ye saw that the food here was wine and meat, meat and vegetarian combinations, and he couldn't finish it by himself, and there was wine to drink.
"Thank you, this meal is so hearty, I can't finish it myself, you can eat with me." Chen Ye was also bored, pulling people to talk.
"My lord, even if you are in prison, you are a noble status, we don't dare to eat with you, my lord, we know your intentions" After the official finished speaking, he was about to leave, the official knew Chen Ye's name, Chen Ye was the hero of the Criminal Department, and there were many fewer unjust, false and wrongful cases.
"Alas, it doesn't matter, I'm also a prisoner now, it's all because you help me to enjoy this day, let's go together" Chen Ye got up and they pulled to the seat, and the official saw that Chen Ye was indeed very sincere, and he had long admired Chen Ye, and it was something that he could not dream of eating together.
The three of them began to eat and drink. This day was very beautiful, Chen Ye ate and slept well in prison, and he could read books and write songs. One of Chen Ye's memorandas is the concept of how to collect taxes if the business of Zhongshan is developed. After Chen Ye deliberately inspected the grassland, he felt that he must start trade with the grassland, basically meet the basic living conditions of the barbarians, and only need to let them live, and constantly corrode the pleasures of the barbarian nobles.
Chen Ye's idea of setting up a trading market at the gate of the grassland, as well as the management mode and restrictions, were all clearly written. After all, there are a lot of coal mines in the grassland, and the difficulty of mining in the Central Plains is relatively good, so we can use the mineral resources of the grassland and exchange them for tea or porcelain that we don't need. We can also open up our weapons, which is better than smuggling weapons from the Maisons. Ensure that the weapons of Zhongshan are constantly at an updated level, and sell some obsolete technical products to the barbarians. It is tantamount to using the barbarians' money to develop the country's military, which is a matter of killing two birds with one stone.
In the long run, the barbarians' weapons will definitely not be on the same level as the Zhongshan Kingdom, and the barbarians' military strength will decline, and our Zhongshan Kingdom will no longer have to fear the barbarians. The second is to allow barbarians to marry Han Chinese and live in Han territory if they can't survive, so that their descendants can learn Chinese, speak Sinicization, and recognize Chinese characters. After a long time, they will feel that they are a member of the Zhongshan Kingdom, recognize the practices of the Zhongshan Kingdom, and will take the initiative to resist the barbarians. As the scale of intermarriage continues to expand, the grassland will gradually transform into Han Chinese, and we will teach them Chinese characters for free, so that the grassland will gradually become a member of the Zhongshan Kingdom.
There is no longer a threat from the Zhongshan Kingdom, and there will never be a threat from the barbarians again, this is a long-term solution. For a short time, the life of the barbarians was controlled through economic factors. If we need a dairy product, and the barbarians can exchange it for salt or something, the grassland can be turned into a base for mutton, and they will grow as much as we need. If one day we don't need cattle and sheep and don't give them anything, they will definitely be in turmoil.
Second, there are no good cavalry in Zhongshan Kingdom, and we use commerce to go to the barbarians on the steppe through horses, and we can get a large number of horses and assemble our own large number of cavalry teams.
This is the general content of Chen Ye's first book, plus some specific implementation content, as long as it is implemented, ten to twenty years, or even thirty years, can solve the problem of barbarians forever, in the past, the barbarians were beaten once, they were afraid of it once, and it didn't take long for them to rob us. Chen Ye's method is the root of solving such a problem, and Chen Ye wrote for several days and wrote almost 100,000 words. There's not much nonsense in it, it's all dry stuff.
After this recital, Chen Ye wrote another recital, the content of which was very ordinary and plain: "Chen was originally a bookworm, and he may not even be able to support himself, but by chance, my brain seems to have become flexible." By chance, I became a door-to-door son-in-law, but after entering the door, my father-in-law and the whole family looked down on me. They only value money in the whole house, so I will start making money little by little. From the Golden Silk Road to the current Chamber of Commerce, there is more and more money. But the plague of locusts and floods has destroyed many families, and I have watched the people of Zhongshan suffer and suffer, and I have spent all my money to feed them. But that's not enough, it will happen again, so I will continue to develop the economy, come in and buy raw materials from the farmers, so that they can find a job and live a good life. I have also become an official and have reduced unjust, false and wrongly decided cases, which is not enough, because behind unjust, false and wrongly decided cases is people's hearts and human nature. You all know about it later, Your Majesty, and I don't need to say more. If Your Majesty is not happy with me, or is afraid. What I think is very simple, I can only be with my family, I can stay away from the capital, away from Your Majesty. Peaceful, stable, happy, and happy, a leisurely life is my biggest dream, gold and silver treasures, no matter how much power is not as good as my family. I've done so much, Your Majesty, I'm tired too, let me go! ”
After Chen Ye finished writing these two memorials, he was relieved, the emperor was still waiting for Chen Ye to cry and make trouble in prison, and he was unwilling! Unexpectedly, Chen Ye reads and writes every day.
"What about the recital that Chen Ye wrote, bring it to me and show it" Emperor Han Qing wants to see what he thinks.
Gonggong Zhou sent someone to the cell to fetch it and sent it directly to the imperial study, at this time the emperor was not ready to rest. When I sent it over, I didn't expect it to be so thick, one so thin.
"Lord Chen commanded, read the thick first, then the thin one," said one of the eunuchs.
"What tricks does Chen Ye want to play again" After Emperor Han Qing picked up the music and read it, he was immersed in it and couldn't come out again. Looking at Chen Ye's heartfelt words and the specific measures proposed by Chen Ye, all the pros and cons and how to operate will be clear. 100,000 words are not read all at once, but while reading, thinking at the same time. Tasting the meaning behind Chen Ye's measures, Emperor Han Qing really felt that his horizons had been broadened after reading it, and the strategy of this grassland could also be used in the places of ethnic minorities in Yunnan.
The second recital has not yet been seen.
This reading is a night, the emperor didn't sleep all night, went directly to the court meeting, the hundred officials saw that the emperor was listless, guessed that it should be the night last night without sleeping.
"Do you think the mutual market we promised should be opened?" A minister stepped forward and reminded.
"The minister also thinks that the mutual market is very good"
"Where do you say it is?" the emperor suddenly asked.
"The minister felt that the imperial court could profit from it and ease the relationship between the two countries." The minister was at a loss for a moment.
"Besides, is there anything else?" Emperor Han Qing waved his hand. I just finished reading the recital written by Chen Ye, and then looked at the ministers of the big face, it is really a hundred officials who are not as good as one Chen Ye in trade.
"We feel that we should carefully consider the issue of Chen Ye, and properly examine the traitorous behavior of the enemy, which will cause the country's prestige to be damaged. We also found out that Chen Ye had trained guards in the mansion, and Chen Ye had instructed his subordinates to kill people. Du Jilong stood up and said.
This made Emperor Han Qing a little surprised, but he didn't expect Du Jilong to stand up, which made many people a little unacceptable.
"The minister felt that Chen Ye should be deprived of all his property and removed from the position of the leader of Chen Ye's Jinyi Guard. Bring the school back to the imperial court," Lu Jianren stood up.
"Erchen thinks that we have achieved barbarian peace for the time being, and we should continue to grow stronger. Let the fire army of 30,000 people guard the frontier, and the construction of the canal is time-consuming and labor-intensive" The second prince also stood up.
"Erchen felt that the academy should be managed by the imperial court, and the distribution of personnel and the recruitment of students should be under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. The Allied forces of the Rwans should be beheaded. The prince also stepped forward.
Emperor Han Qing looked at all the courtiers with a face, and suddenly wanted to know what Chen Ye's second recital was written, and regardless of what happened to the courtiers below, he got up and left directly.
