Wu Meiniang's words greatly encouraged the businessman, and Han Yi's words made the businessman start to go crazy.

The prospects for Henan, which is mired in a drought crisis, are bright, very bright.

Han Yi is not boasting, Henan does have his heritage, it basically has all the driving force for market development.

Perhaps in the later generations Henan's economic status is far inferior to Beiguangshang, but the two situations are completely different, later generations that is because of the reform and opening up, only to develop, and the reform and opening up is to introduce foreign capital to develop themselves, the coastal areas are naturally developed, and today's Datang, there is no need to introduce any foreign capital, its internal power is the strongest, the power of reform is from the inside to the outside, the most potential in the world, the largest market, that is, the Central Plains, internal trade is the most important, the trade volume is also the largest, After all, the Tang Dynasty was rich in land and resources, and you could for a long time, so Henan naturally became the center.

Regardless of whether the drought will further expand, as long as it is not permanent, Henan has a strong investment value.

After talking to the merchants, Han Yi returned to the back hall of the mansion.

"The queen's words are really beautiful!"

Han Yi said with a smile.

Wu Meiniang said lightly: "If you say it beautifully, it is better to do it beautifully." ”

"It's impossible to say that." Han Yi said: "If you don't say it beautifully, you can't talk about it, I believe that after this time, the queen has left a deep impression in the hearts of businessmen." ”

Wu Meiniang smiled slightly and said, "Your plan has taken another step forward." ”

"Don't say that." Han Yi smiled: "It should be said that it is our plan." ”

Wu Meiniang said: "It's up to you next." ”

"Nope."

Han Yi shook his head and said, "Next, the queen needs to make a speech." ”

Wu Meiniang looked at Han Yi suspiciously.

Han Yi said: "Henan has always had a strong market value, the reason why it has not been developed, is that the local gentry class is too strong, and now is the best opportunity, because the famine makes the gentry's set will be worthless, to develop Henan, we must also reduce the influence of the gentry on the local area, and this is an excellent opportunity." ”

Wu Meiniang groaned slightly and said, "What should I do?" ”

Han Yidao: "We have talked before, it is impossible for the merchants' grain to help so many people, and the imperial court cannot allocate so much food, because the next autumn harvest is still very far away, and our previous plan is to let some people go to Lingnan and even those islands overseas, but this needs publicity, because the people of my Central Plains are still accustomed to relocating to their land."

In fact, this is also a secret battle between us and the gentry class, and the gentry class certainly does not want the people to move, because once the people move, the influence of the gentry class will weaken, and the influence of the merchants will increase. But nowadays, no matter what we say, the gentry class cannot refute it, because they cannot afford so much food, and any secular etiquette will pale in terms of survival, so the queen also needs to make an impassioned speech in front of the people, to promote her own ideas, to save the local people. ”

As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, put it on the table, and said, "This is the manuscript I wrote for the queen." ”

Wu Meiniang took it and looked at it, and immediately frowned, and said, "What are you writing this, even the sentences don't make sense." ”

Depend on! Do you know that what you are writing now is super esoteric for me, and of course it takes a lot of effort to write! Han Yi was immediately embarrassed and said, "I don't want to, but I can't find someone to write about this matter." ”

Wu Meiniang said: "Why can't you write better?" ”

"Because I haven't graduated yet, I was sent to Chang'an by my father-in-law."

“.....！”

Wu Meiniang glanced at Han Yi with contempt.

Han Yi said: "I didn't ask the queen to follow what she said, it's just a few points on it, just grab it." ”

Wu Meiniang looked at it carefully, her eyes suddenly flickered a few times, and said, "The content is well written." ”

Han Yi said: "Originally, the sentences didn't make sense, if the content is not up to par, then I will take it out, wouldn't it be humiliating." ”

Wu Meiniang pursed her lips and smiled, nodded and said, "I know what to say." ”

Han Yi sighed: "It's really easy to be a smart person like the queen." ”

Wu Meiniang smiled: "With your writing, you can only cooperate with smart people, a little stupid, but you can't understand it." ”

"Haha!"

......

On the morning of this day, Wu Meiniang, accompanied by Han Yi, Zheng Shanxing, Lu Shigua, and a group of businessmen, came outside to inspect.

This has become Wu Meiniang's exclusive political propaganda, since ancient times, there has been no queen like her, often going out, talking to the people, and guiding the work on the spot.

The people here are also accustomed to it, and suddenly find that the queen appears on the edge of the field. It can be said that no queen has such a deep impression in the hearts of the people, although the eldest grandson queen is called the virtuous queen, but that is in the impression of the reader, the people have never seen the eldest grandson queen, and they don't know what she has done, they have heard it, of course, the impression will not be very deep, and their impression of Wu Meiniang comes from direct communication, there is a picture of the memory, and the impression is naturally deeper.

"Although the imperial court will develop the market in Henan, but agriculture has always been the foundation of Henan, this can never be changed, therefore, while developing the market, we must protect the agricultural mulberry industry here, protect the farmers here, and we must manage the local rivers and protect the forests.

Wu Meiniang walked on the edge of the field, looking at the endless dry fields, and between her words, she was full of hope, as if there were endless rice fields on the side.

Everyone's hearts are also full of hope.

Hopefully, that's very important in the disaster area.

Lu Shigua suddenly said: "The queen said very much, the imperial court should introduce a series of policies to protect the local environment, only if the environment is protected, business will prosper, a disaster caused by the loss, is countless, the minister thinks that no matter how much money is spent, to prevent natural disasters, it is worth it." ”

"Hmm."

Wu Meiniang nodded with a smile, and said: "Therefore, the imperial court has to work hard to plan, and while developing commerce, it must not harm agriculture." ”

In fact, the protection of forests has been in place since the time of the Qi State Guanzhong, but it is not proposed now, and the ancients have realized that cutting down will lead to flooding and some ecological crises.

After a while, they came to the largest agricultural area in Weizhou, and saw many people sighing in the dry fields, now is the time of harvest, but they can not harvest, can only say to go to pick up locusts to eat the remaining grain.

"The queen is here."

I don't know who shouted excitedly.

The surrounding people immediately gathered around, which made the guards who protected Wu Meiniang feel pressured, and when the queen's travel becomes the norm, the pressure on the guards will of course increase suddenly!

Wu Meiniang's face was not afraid at all, she stepped forward and asked kindly, "How is your harvest?" ”

When those people heard this, they couldn't help but be depressed.

"Don't hide it from the queen, our harvest this year is less than 10%."

An old man began to cry as soon as he opened his mouth, the farmer has real feelings for food, even if he has enough food for the next year, but as long as he thinks that this grain has been eaten by locusts, he will feel very sad, not to mention that they are all exhausted.

Wu Meiniang sighed lightly and said, "Although the imperial court has invited many businessmen to invest here, the grain they bring cannot satisfy all the people in the disaster area. ”

One person panicked: "How are we going to live the next year!" ”

"Yes! There is still a year to go before the next autumn harvest, are we going to starve to death? ”

The hearts of the people immediately became panicked, knowing that all their previous expectations were on this merchant.

Wu Meiniang hurriedly said: "You don't need to worry, I said that I will not easily let the people of Datang lose their lives in front of me, and I will do everything possible to help you get through the difficulties." ”

Everyone looked at Wu Meiniang expectantly.

Wu Meiniang said: "I don't know if you have heard that the imperial court recently promulgated the "Universal Law"? ”

Many people are at a loss, which shows how closed their messages are.

Wu Meiniang said: "The so-called "Universal Law" is to promote the civilization and culture of our Central Plains to those foreign places, to educate those barbarians, and I have always been thinking about what place can best represent the civilization and culture of my Central Plains. Henan is the origin of our Central Plains culture, and the people who live here, that is, you, are the most representative of the civilization and culture of our Central Plains, and I also hope that the people of Henan can shoulder the heavy responsibility in it. ”

This is a little too profound for the farmer.

One young man asked, "What does this have to do with food?" ”

Wu Meiniang didn't answer and asked, "If there is no drought, are you satisfied with your life?" ”

The young man was stunned for a moment and said, "It's still full... Satisfied! ”

Wu Meiniang asked again, "How many sons do you have?" ”

The young man said, "Two." ”

Wu Meiniang said: "Do you think your son's land in the future will be more than what you have now?" ”

The young man shook his head and sighed, "It seems that we don't have any extra land to distribute to us in Weizhou. ”

Wu Meiniang nodded and said: "That's the truth, the land will not increase, but the population has been increasing, and the arable land will definitely not be enough in the future, and whether a country is strong or not depends not on me, not on the officials, not on how the businessmen live, but on how the farmers live in this country, if the farmers do not live well, the country will perish, because agriculture is the foundation of the country."

I've always been a proponent of making farmers more affluent, and that hasn't changed. But this kind of thing, just I work hard, it's useless, a rich life depends on self-struggle, I don't want you to live a life of contentment, you should really go to Yangzhou, Muzhou to see, you will know, you actually live a very poor life.

The spirit of the people of the Central Plains is actually struggle, many years ago, here are pieces of wasteland, our ancestors with their sweat to open up, we should be like our ancestors, continue to struggle, continue to open up the land, should not be satisfied with the status quo, you should strive for a better and richer life. ”

Speaking of this, she pushed her hand to her side and said, "I believe you are no stranger to Shang Shuling." He used to be a farmer in Yangzhou, and as far as I know, his family only has a few acres of land, which is much poorer than yours. But what about now? He has become a scholar, and has a lot of wealth, this is because he is not satisfied with the status quo, continuous efforts and struggles, everything he has gained today is what he has obtained through struggle, since he can, I believe that you can also do it through struggle. ”
