Chapter 461: Going East Can Turn Over the Yalu River 35
Hearing that Zhou Nan had two other ways to alleviate the problem of food shortage that he had so many ridiculers, Agu Zhe was very happy, in his opinion, there was a way to solve the problem of food shortage with the help of divine beasts.
ββAguzhe hurriedly asked, "What way?" β
ββ"I am about to recruit soldiers and horses, if there are people who are willing to join the army and serve the imperial court, the imperial court will naturally provide food, so as not to be hungry and cold. Although there are not many recruits, these young and strong men are the most hungry for food. First, there is less competition for food among the clans, secondly, there will be money to support the family in the future, and thirdly, the imperial court will also have enough troops to protect the territory and the people. β
ββAguzhe nodded, not to mention the lack of food for the Xi people now, even when there is a lot of abundance in ordinary times, when the imperial court recruits soldiers, there will be many Xi people who go to recruit. Now being able to reduce a part of the rations for young and middle-aged people is of course good for the entire Xi people.
ββ"Another is that you Xi people can use some furs, goods, and livestock to come to Yanjing City to barter for grain, or sell things to buy grain. There is not much grain in the government granary, but those traders have money in their hands, and there are as many grain and rice stores in the city as there are enough rice, flour, beans and other grains to buy. As long as you sell the goods, of course you can exchange them for food. There are government officials who inspect you, and those traders will not exploit you, but the merchants will seek profits, and they will get some cheapness. "No matter how much surplus grain the government has, it can't take out all of it and give it away, Zhou Nan came up with such a way, what Xi people urgently need now is food, food; The traders in Yanjing City like to buy good mountain goods, furs and other things at low prices. This is also the best way to take what you need, and you don't have to spend the government's money.
ββAguzhe said bitterly, "If some of these livestock are not sold, they will eventually starve to death and freeze to death, and very little will be left in the spring of next year." It's just that in the past, whenever those businessmen came to this time, they joined hands to reduce the price in the hope of death, and we couldn't help it. β
ββZhou Nan said, "You can rest assured that the government can support the bottom, if it is lower than the reserve price, the government will collect it according to the reserve price." I will not let you suffer. "In the market where the government is laissez-faire, this is often the case, and Zhou Nan has experienced too many such things before the crossing, and it is the people's hearts that are making trouble. In fact, the government doesn't really have to pay to buy Xi Ren's goods, as long as the matter of the reserve price is announced, those businessmen will naturally buy it in front of the government when they know about it. Although it is less, it is also profitable.
ββHearing Zhou Nan say that the government will set a reserve price for their goods, Agu Zhe is naturally happy for the clansmen, and the clansmen's goods are very satisfied as long as they can be sold at a flat price. Aguzhe stood up and said to Zhou Nandao, "The horse treats my Xi people so well, and the Xi people will definitely be grateful to the horse, and they are willing to follow the horse forever." β
ββZhou Nan said with a smile, "General Yelu is serious, these things are trivial. Now you Xi clan have something that is a big deal. β
ββAgu Zhe looked at Zhou Nan in puzzlement, and Zhou Nan continued, "Now that Xiao Gan is dead and there is no more King Xi, how should you Xi clan elect the new King Xi?" Zhou Nan asked Agu Zhe about the election of King Xi, and naturally knew that King Xi was sealed by the Liao State, he just wanted to hear Agu Zhe's thoughts on the position of King Xi, you must know that King Xi is the general existence of the soil emperor in the Xi clan, just like Xiao Gan, the reason why Xiao Gan became the emperor has no objection, because King Xi himself is the emperor in the Xi clan.
ββAgu Zhe said indifferently, "It's all sealed by the old Liao Emperor, and it can't be elected." The old Liao Taizu Yelu Abaoji divided the five Xi into six divisions and ordered Bruen to be the master, and the Xi king, who had only since then, led the government of the Xi army and the people. β
ββ"General Yelu, are you willing to be King Xi?" Zhou Nan looked at Aguzhe and asked.
ββAgu Zhe was stunned for a moment, he couldn't see what Zhou Nan meant by asking, but he still replied, "Horse Mingjian, the villain is very bored with this King Xi. β
ββ"King Xi is in charge of the government of the Xi people?" Zhou Nan said temptingly.
ββAgu Zhe still shook his head and said, "I don't have a king of Xi, since the Tang Dynasty, until the Great Liao, haven't I lived well?" As this king of Xi, just dealing with the disputes between the five departments will be a big one, the eldest husband was born in this world, who is impatient to listen to these mothers-in-law and mothers every day? ! β
ββ"I wonder what General Yelu's ambitions are?" Zhou Nan asked with interest.
ββ"Didn't the colt just say that he was going to recruit soldiers and horses? The villain is willing to follow the army and serve the horse. Fight against injustice, gallop happily! Aguzhe has two thick eyebrows like Gao Yuan, but his face is thin, and there is no trace of joke, but it looks even more high-flying.
ββ"Hehe, you are the young patriarch of the Mei tribe, how dare I wronged you? Don't end up being as interesting as you, the young patriarch, and you'll regret it at that time. Zhou Nan didn't expect Agu Zhe to have a true temperament, and persuaded him.
ββ"The villain recognizes that the colt is a loyal and benevolent person, and it is a blessing for the villain to be able to follow the colt, and he will never regret it!" Aguzhe said stubbornly.
ββ"I'll talk about this later, for now I still say that as long as Xi people are willing to submit to the court, I will not blame the past; In addition, the Xi clan will not have the position of Xi king in the future, and all the affairs of the Xi clan will be nominated by each of the five Xi tribes as the patriarch to manage the affairs of your own clan. Since he submitted to the imperial court, he acted in accordance with the laws of the imperial court. This is my condition, which clan can do it, then lay down their arms and accept the reorganization of the imperial court; If any clan can't do it, only the sword and the soldier will meet. Zhou Nan finally stated his conditions.
ββ"The villain can guarantee that Mei will be able to comply with the conditions said by the concubine and return to the court!" Aguzhe is now a five-body thrower to Zhou Nan, and said without hesitation about Zhou Nan's words.
ββ"Thank you, General Yeru, for your support. There are the other four departments, please go back and spread the word, and if you are truly obedient, the person who is in charge of the clan will come to meet in our army. Zhou Nan said to Aguzhe. If you want to be obedient, of course, you have to send someone over, which is also to see if the other party is truly obedient, or if there is a ghost in his heart and pretends to take refuge. If you are truly obedient, just like Aguzhe, you will no longer be wary of yourself, anyway, the other party is no longer something you can fight against, hiding and not seeing is death, and going is death, what else is there to fear? If you pretend to take refuge and have a ghost in your heart, you will definitely be swaying from side to side, looking forward and backward, and not daring to stand in danger, of course, you will not come to your army calmly.
ββ"Please take the horse a little, the villain will go back, explain the meaning of the horse to the generals, and come to meet the horse as soon as possible!" Aguzhe got up and said goodbye to Zhou Nan and went back.
ββAt this time, Zhou Fu walked in, took a beautifully sealed letter, and handed it to Zhou Nandao, "This is sent from the cottage." β
ββZhou Nan received it in his hand, and before he opened the package, he smelled a familiar faint fragrance. Like Song Chungui, please collect x Song Chungui.
