"Brother Gao heard that you were bullied by a group of bigwigs in the capital, were you stimulated, why did you abuse the horses, the horses are innocent, what a good horse, what a big stone for the horse to carry on?"

Five miles outside Mengzhou City, Cao Zhong, who came to greet him, exclaimed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Gao Fangping said with a smile: "I heard that the maintenance of the river under the rule of Mengzhou is difficult, and it is a headache every year, and it must be troublesome for you to collect stones, so I brought some stones by the way and sold them to Chang Gong to earn some tolls." ”

General Cao fainted to the ground, knowing that he was greedy for money, but he was greedy to this extent, and there was no one left.

Chen Zhirong, the commander who came to intercept the army, smiled crookedly, and was worried about the rainy season is coming, and it will cost people to repair the river and collect stones. In view of this, Lao Chen laughed wildly: "Even if you have some filial piety to Chang Gong, I accepted the stone in Mengzhou, so let's not talk about money, your friendship with Chang Gong, it hurts too much to talk about money." Your Yongle army was specially approved to enter the city, and by the way, you helped the official to bring the stones to the prison camp and pile them up, and let those thieves work with the army on a certain day. The Yongle Army's meals in Mengzhou were supplied by Mengzhou. ”

I never expected to receive benefits from Lao Chang and Lao Chen, my mother was robbed by them every time, so it was a good thing to take the initiative to give them some stones this time and not to be robbed extralytically.

Lao Chen always likes to say, "You can't hurt me", he is not wrong, Gao Fangping really has no way to take him and Lao Chang.

According to the usual practice, when going to the city to participate in General Cao's dinner, female stars and fine wine are reluctant.

As for Chen Zhirong's meal to entertain the Yongle Army, it was a big surprise, damn it's not the army, but nearly 8,000 rice buckets. Even people and horses are all rice buckets, they are too edible, Lao Chen can be regarded as a teacher......

During the banquet, Gao Fangping mentioned Lu Zhishen.

General Cao then ordered: "Take the general's seal letter, go to the prison camp and bring the bald donkey, and hand it over to my brother Xiao Gao, from today Lu Zhishen's military registration will be transferred to the Yongle Army, and you will handle the paperwork by the way." ”

When Lu Zhishen was brought in, he looked quite miserable, with footprints all over his body, and his face was disgraced. It is said that General Cao originally wanted to give some face and not bully Lao Lu, but Lao Lu was not well-behaved, often scolded people, and asked people to drink wine and meat to eat, as a labor prisoner, he dared to be so arrogant, so he was specially named and bullied by General Cao, and was beaten almost every day.

Fortunately, Lu Zhishen is not angry, and being besieged by others is used as a massage, and he does not care about those soldiers. So I came to see Lao Lu Shangdao, although he didn't give wine and meat, he also gave double portions of food to the prisoners.

"Little Prime Minister, you can come to save me, if you don't come again, I will suffocate in prison sooner or later, Lu Zhishen's life is yours, can you take me with you to serve?" Lu Zhishen said.

"Okay, everything that should be polished is polished. If you violate the rules, I'm not a Buddha, so I won't look for you. As for the sins you owe to the national dynasty, after being punished by the Kaifeng Mansion, theoretically even if you pay it back, from today onwards, as a thief with the army, you will serve as a commander in the Yongle Army, lead a battalion of men and horses, and serve well. Gao Fangping nodded.

Lu Zhishen originally thought that he would be a personal guard or something, but he didn't want to be appointed as a commander, so he was very excited, knelt on the ground and said: "The last general, Luda, see the commander of the army." ”

Zhishen is his monastic name, and now he is still in the army, so he has resumed his real name.

"I've already given you the money. However, death is great, Zheng He's brother was killed by you after all, and it is inconvenient for you to go to worship in military affairs, but you have to write a letter to Zheng He in the capital, which can be regarded as an explanation and an apology to his eldest man. This is a successful solution. Gao Fangping said.

"That's as it should be, I'll take care of it." Ruda sat down to eat and drink as he spoke, making a mess of a high-end banquet, so everyone stopped eating and watched the bald donkey eat and drink......

The main purpose of coming to Mengzhou is to inspect Jiang Wen's business, and by the way, take a picture of the horses. Accepted a small amount of bribes from General Cao. Take Ruda by the way.

Now that all of this has been achieved, he does not stop the next day and sets out on his journey.

This time, he often gave enough face, held an umbrella early in the morning, and saw off Gao Fangping five miles outside the city under the escort of a messenger.

In the morning, there was a thick smell of moisture and earthy smell floating in the air, there was always a light rain, and the road outside the city was muddy.

This is the first rain of the year, it came late, and it was very worrying for a lot of time earlier, and several counties in Mengzhou competed for water for spring ploughing, and they also fought several times like those mallets in Kaifeng Prefecture, and all of them killed people.

But it has been raining since last night, and it has not stopped until now, and the so-called spring rain is as expensive as oil, and it seems that it can already be expected that this year's water will be abundant and there will be a good harvest.

So when I came with an umbrella, I was in a good mood, and I couldn't stop laughing, and I didn't hesitate to praise God. Although it wasn't the rain from Gao Fangping, Xiao Gao was also praised by him by the way.

"Congratulations to Ming Gong. Your political achievements are outstanding, your rule is becoming more and more stable, and your promotion is just around the corner. ”

Gao Fangping was relieved to see that he was happy, otherwise if he was unhappy, Jiang Wen's life would not be easy, and he was often extorted from some money by him with some pigtails that didn't hurt or itch, which was commonplace.

"Yes, Mengzhou is becoming more and more prosperous now. Among them, you have a contribution. ”

Lao Chang simply kicked the poor man holding the umbrella away, and the whole thing was drenched in rain, "Although Cao Zhong's fool is incompetent, he is also well-behaved, and he doesn't often cause trouble for the old man." Since you exterminated Erlong Mountain, although there are still many cottages, their anger has been much more restrained, and the harm is much less. In addition, the order of the market in the city has improved, and thanks to the convenience of the bills of the money village and the currency of Tokyo, business has been easier, and the number of merchants coming and going to Mengzhou has increased considerably. With only two taxes, tax and housing tax, we can have a very good outlook for this year. Jiang Wen is a female villain who should go into the pig cage, the old man has long seen her unpleasant, but now she is embarrassed with you, after presiding over pork affairs, Mengzhou's pork is very sufficient, and the price of meat is decreasing, compared with the same period last year, the decline is nearly three layers, although pork is low, but it is good to have meat to eat, Mengzhou's vegetables are becoming more and more diversified, and there are more and more people who eat meat, and the old man is happy, which is the only reason to tolerate Jiang Wen. ”

Chang Wei said, laughing especially excitedly.

But then he frowned again, and said with some worry: "However, the old man is worried that the price of meat will rebound at some point?" ”

Gao Fangping smiled and said, "Chang Gong might as well talk about it, what kind of rebound method?" ”

Chang Wei said: "At present, the price of meat continues to be cheap, and Jiang Wen is grabbing the market." Because her pigs grow faster than others, her pigs slaughtered in four months are fatter than other people's pigs in a year, and they are large-scale breeding, so the cost is much lower than others. So she sold it cheaply, and now the other ****** in Mengzhou are complaining and can hardly operate. The old man was worried that the other ****** would not be able to maintain, and when she was the only one in Mengzhou, it might not be a good thing with her character. ”

Gao Fangping said: "Chang Gong doesn't need to worry, I said earlier that pork is a strategic industry sent by God, and there is no national law to follow. However, since there is no national law to follow, and it is a matter of strategic food security, it is of course necessary to use administrative means to intervene strongly, as has been the case in all dynasties. ”

"How to interfere? Could it be that your kid and Jiang Wen will give up their interests? Chang Wei said curiously.

Gao Fangping shook his head and said, "We won't give up." We are also at the top of the food chain, so we don't have to do the hard work of raising pigs all the time. Now I support Jiang Wen to do this, just to let all the ****** in Mengzhou see that there is another better way to raise pigs, which is to force them to eliminate their backward productivity. When they can't afford to run in the traditional way, they will inevitably approve of Jiang Wen's way. That's when my goal will be achieved. I will no longer allow Jiang Wen to raise pigs, and he will move up the food chain, only selling feed, and using his existing team to provide veterinary and management services. Then all the farmers in Mengzhou had the opportunity to buy my feed, and they all had the opportunity to learn new production methods from Jiang Wen. Therefore, at that time, all Mengzhou farmers stood at the same starting point in a new way, with more advanced production methods, launched new fighting and competition, more pork, cheaper, and continued to expand. Well, if you understand MLM, this is actually the core of MLM. ”

"MLM?" The old man has his mouth half-open.

Gao Fangping said with a smile: "It's really a pyramid scheme, those farmers are actually the same compared to before, but they have small profits, work and things to do." Jiang Wen and I are the same, we are still at the high end of the food chain. The only thing that has changed is that there will be more and more meat, the cost of eating meat will be lower and lower, the body will be better and better, and the life will be longer and longer. The longer the common people live, the more they will pay taxes, the greater their contribution to the dynasty, the more the population will be, and then the base of the boys who can exploit will continue to expand. ”

"......" Lao Chang thought for a long time and said, "How do you know that eating meat will live longer and longer?" ”

"Anyway, kid is for sure. The existence of life is the existence of protein, and if you eat too much meat in a thousand years, you will live a few years less, but Ming Gong believes me, now that the average life expectancy of your Mengzhou is less than thirty-five years old, assuming that all other conditions remain the same, the price of meat will drop by one layer, and if the average life expectancy is not increased by one year, you can ask me. Gao Fangping said mysteriously.

"Seriously! This is a real political achievement, the old man will take it as one thing to pay close attention to, if you fool the old man, the old man can really go to Beijing and fight a lawsuit with you! Chang Chang said excitedly.

It's as if you can beat me in a lawsuit.

Thinking about it this way, Gao Fangping didn't stimulate him either, and said with a smile: "The kid never talks nonsense on the issue of people's livelihood, anyway, don't believe that group of corrupt Confucianists, for the consuls, the common people have meat to eat, even if it really supports the dead, it is definitely not a bad thing!" ”

"Of course the old man doesn't believe in those rotten people!" Lao Chang said proudly, "Otherwise, Jiang Wen would have been killed by the old man eight times." ”

Gao Fangping hugged his fists and said: "That's it, don't forget the merit of the kid when you are promoted, the kid is still in a hurry to go to Yuncheng, Ming Gong takes care of himself, and there will be a period later." ”

Lao Chang nodded slightly, watching the group of hooligans leave.

It's really a group of hooligans, damn that walking slowly doesn't seem to be majestic enough, they fly as if they were rushing to rob, and the horses' hooves splash on the muddy road on a rainy day, making the old team full of mud people. (To be continued.) )
