Chapter 461: Five Surnames and Seven Hopes Frightened (Three Shifts)
As a result, the history of assassination in various states came to pay homage with heavy gifts.
Li Su naturally did not accept these gifts, and severely criticized them.
Next, these thorns asked for roads to be paved, new cities to be built, and universities to be opened in their states.
Eh, the history of the thorns in these states, after seeing the king of Shu coming to Yizhou.
Roads were paved and construction was carried out on a large scale, and Yizhou's economy and education went up slowly.
In terms of economy, it may have doubled several times since the arrival of the King of Shu.
Not to mention education, it can be said to be the best in the entire Tang Dynasty.
They watched Yizhou achieve so much with their eyes, and their hearts were full of envy, jealousy and hatred.
But it can only be watched.
And now, the King of Shu has become the festival envoy of the entire Jiannan Dao!
That's great, they all look forward to their state, and it can develop as fast as Yizhou.
In this way, they will be able to get a perfect answer sheet, which will also be beneficial to their promotion.
Hearing their request, Li couldn't help but feel black lines.
Huo, you only see the rapid development of Yizhou, but do you know how much money this king has invested in Yizhou?
Do you think that the economy of a place can be driven by simply engaging in large-scale construction?
This idea is too naïve.
This wind can't last long!
You can't just focus on the development of JDP and ignore the rest.
In ancient times, when agricultural output could not go up and had to rely on personnel-intensive planting, there was a reason for agriculture to be the foundation.
Therefore, at that time, the development of a place was inseparable from the support of agriculture.
Therefore, Li Su reprimanded them and told them to focus on agriculture in the next few years.
It is necessary to enable the local people to solve the problem of food and clothing, and there is still a surplus of food and personnel, so that industry and commerce can be developed and other developments can be developed.
Next, Li Su arranged a task for all the thorn history, that is, to promote winter wheat throughout Jiannan Province.
In fact, even if Li Su didn't promote it, those farmers would have planted it after hearing about the yield of winter wheat.
After all, the introduction of winter wheat has increased the grain from one crop a year to three crops in two years.
It is equivalent to two years and one year of harvest, how can the people refuse such a good thing?
But for the sowing of winter wheat, there needs to be good seed grain.
Without the participation of the government, it will be difficult to promote the entire Jiannan Province as a whole.
And now, Tuyuhun has sent a large number of cattle and sheep.
Those sheep were all rewarded by Li Su to the army and gave them to improve their food.
As for the cattle, they were distributed directly to the states and divided equally among the people to farm.
By next year, the promotion of sweet potatoes, peanuts and corn will be promoted throughout Jiannan Province.
In this way, Li Su is confident that Jiannan Dao will completely solve the problem of food and clothing in the next three to five years.
After solving the problem of food and clothing, the next step is to develop industry and commerce.
……
The people of the five surnamed Qiwang families got together again.
The King of Shu became the Jiedu envoy of Jiannan Dao, which made them panic.
Well, in fact, the reason why the King of Shu was able to serve as the governor of Yizhou was that they could not be broken.
But after the King of Shu really arrived in Yizhou, they found that they really underestimated the King of Shu.
Their calculations, to the King of Shu, seemed to be nothing more than a child's game.
And the King of Shu not only cracked their calculations, but also made Yizhou the first city of the Tang Dynasty.
Well, the current Yizhou, except for the slightly smaller population, is not much better than Chang'an City.
And their five surnames and seven wangs are in Yizhou, and even the business in the entire Jiannan Province has been hindered.
Why have the five surnames and seven hopes been passed on?
The first is land, and the second is business.
The Taiyuan Wang clan controlled the salt industry of the Tang Dynasty, and the Boling Cui clan and the Zhaojun Li clan joined forces to monopolize the iron industry.
Of course, these two are official camps in Datang, but in fact, they are only doing it, and even Li Shimin does not dare to take these two businesses from them.
Fanyang's Lu's boats and cars travel all over the world, Xingyang Zheng's got silk tea bricks, and Qinghe Cui's meddled in everything about people's livelihood.
What is the livelihood of the people?
It is said that it is food, clothing, housing and transportation, and people do everything.
Well, in this way, the business in the world is almost monopolized by these big families.
And these major families have always married each other, and basically do not marry with foreign surnames.
Because of this, they have been able to pass on the legacy for so many years.
But now, a king of Shu is almost about to break the foundation of their family.
Wang's survival is in the salt industry, and the salt industry is also a profiteering industry.
But now the refined salt produced by the king of Shu in Yizhou is several times better than theirs, but the price is very low.
Although the Wang family has been forced to reduce the price of salt, it is much lower than the price of refined salt of the king of Shu.
But in this way, their profits are skyrocketing.
And the most terrible thing is that now the king of Shu is estimated to have not spared his hands, and has not found a large salt well for large-scale production of refined salt.
Otherwise, I am afraid that the entire salt industry will be taken away by him.
The Cui family and the Li family controlled the iron industry, but now the steelmaking capacity of Yizhou is not known how many times more advanced than theirs.
Now in the entire iron industry of Jiannan Province, these two families can no longer interfere.
Now the king of Shu has not expanded outward, but expanding outward, isn't it a matter of time?
Well, only Lu's boat and car industry has not been greatly affected.
Not only was it not affected, but because of the rapid development of Yizhou and the increasing number of tourists, their business has prospered.
Zheng's silk tea bricks have also been affected by some influences.
Because from this year, Yizhou began to sell fairy tea.
The taste of this fairy tea is many times better than their tea bricks.
Even those figures with heads and faces in the Zheng family began to drink this fairy tea.
And they are organizing people to investigate the production method of fairy tea, but they have not been able to crack it for a long time.
Although this year's fairy tea in Yizhou is very expensive, and the quantity is not too much, it has a certain impact on their tea brick business, but it is not too big.
But this scale can be expanded, and it is foreseeable that the tea brick business will be replaced by fairy tea sooner or later.
Qinghe Cui's clan was also quite impacted.
Their cosmetics also have luxury goods such as bronze mirrors, tables, chairs, benches, etc., and the impact is called a miserable one.
Well, don't talk about it.
Now even the eldest lady of their Cui family uses Zhenguan tables, Zhenguan chairs, glass mirrors, and soaps, perfumes and shampoos produced by Zhonghua Commercial Houses.
The Cui family is like this, not to mention the others.
