When it comes to Hedong, the first thing Ye Hua thinks of is coal, there is no way, the coal boss here in his previous life is famous all over the world, and he is pressing, and if he wants to develop Hedong, he will inevitably make a fuss about coal.

However, the current technical level is too low, the transportation capacity is poor, the value of coal itself is not high, far lower than that of grain, if you can't find a way to do it manually, there is nothing to make money, and even lose money.

This is a very simple economic account, Chai Rong and Wang Pu can calculate it clearly, but if they calculate it clearly, they may not be able to make up their minds.

"Champion Hou, you said it lightly, how can you restore slavery for the sake of Hedong? So what about the Central Plains? What about other places? Do you want to treat the people as mustards? Wang Pu asked angrily.

Ye Hua gave him a big look, "Master Wang, when did I say that I want to let the people of Da Zhou be slaves?" ”

Wang Pu's eyes widened, and he said angrily: "Master Hou, you just said that you want to practice slavery, but now you regret it, what do you mean?" ”

Chai Rong grabbed his short beard, groaned for a while, and suddenly smiled: "Master Wang, I understand what Ye Qing meant, he said that the people of Da Zhou are not needed, but he didn't say that other people can't be used!" ”

"Oh!"

Wang Pu took a breath and suddenly hit his forehead with his hand, he was really damned, he didn't even hear what it meant, he was really confused.

"Master Hou, if the old man guessed correctly, this first batch of slaves is the Shatuo people, right?" Wang Pu gritted his teeth and asked.

"That's right, it's time for them to pay for these decades!" Ye Hua said quietly, his tone was so cold that it made people tremble, Li Keyong was a mercenary of the Tang Dynasty at the beginning, and he was able to suppress the Huangchao Uprising, but later the Shatuo Group gradually got out of control, separating one side, and causing disaster to the world, the chaos of the five dynasties and ten countries, and Shi Jingjiao's betrayal of Yanyun, which harmed the Han family for four hundred years, this account cannot be counted!

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that all the men in Hedong should be used as slaves, and they should be used to dig coal and supply the people and workshops in the capital."

Under Ye Hua's efforts, along the Wuzhang River, an industrial corridor has been formed, steel, ordnance, gunpowder...... The three fist products constitute the core of the combat effectiveness of the Great Zhou army, and without these three things, it is impossible to quickly smash the Jinyang city wall.

And coal is the food of industry, the more it is fed, the more the industrial system will expand and grow, and it will dominate the world in the future, and it will rely on this industrial monster!

Wang Pu pondered and said: "Master Hou, there are only twenty or thirty thousand men in Hedong at the moment, I'm afraid it's not enough, right?" ”

"What's so hard about that? Aren't there still party members? In the north, there are Khitans and Murwei in Yunzhou, and to the west, there are Tibetans and Uighurs...... Just grab it and use it! ”

"You're light!" Wang Puwei shouted: "They are all fierce and good at fighting, and they are not easy to deal with!" Aren't you afraid of war and trouble? ”

"Don't be afraid!"

Ye Hua said proudly: "We defeated the Khitan, destroyed the Shatuo Iron Cavalry, and smashed the Jinyang Jiancheng!" Just ask the world, who else can stop the martial arts of the Great Zhou! A strong army needs to be constantly sharpened by fighting. Slaves are captured and sold to the mines, and then the mines provide cheap coal for the use of the ordnance workshops, which produce more high-quality and low-cost weapons, and then sell them to the army, and the soldiers have better weapons, so that they can capture slaves at a lower price...... Isn't it good that a perfect cycle is formed, and all parties benefit? ”

In the face of Ye Hua's powerful logical offensive, Wang Pu was completely defeated.

The old man was left to mumble to himself, "Master Hou, everyone benefits, there are always people who suffer, right?" ”

"Yes, the Shatuo people suffer, the Khitan people suffer, the Dangxiang people suffer, and the Tubo people suffer...... What do they do, even if they all die, what does it have to do with you? ”

Wang Pu blushed, "This, this is definitely not the royal way, the Siyi should be gentle and subdued, and blindly using the strong will cause a big disaster!" ”

"What's the big deal? If they have the ability, they will come to fight and see if they can beat the male soldiers of the Great Zhou! Ye Hua smiled and said: "Master Wang, it is too difficult to subdue people's hearts, but killing people is just a matter of a knife." Ye is a martial artist, he doesn't have such profound moral knowledge, and he can't influence the barbarians...... Otherwise. Ye Hua came to Wang Pu's side and said in a low voice: "I will send a few people to escort Master Wang to the grassland, so that you can surrender the hearts of the people, or ten years, or twenty years, when the time comes, all the four Yi will come to pay tribute to Your Majesty, and I will come to the dynasty of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and your Master Wang will definitely become a saint!" ”

Wang Pu's old face is purple, let alone let him go for ten years and eight years, maybe he will die in ten days and eight days, is there such a framing of the old man? The kid surnamed Ye is simply not a son of man!

"The old man is not a pedantic person, but he is worried that if you do this, it will arouse the disgust of all the tribes, and when the time comes, they will attack together, and there will be beacon fires everywhere, what should I do? Relying on your champion Hou alone, can you stop it? Wang Pu sneered.

Ye Hua said: "Master Wang, you say that, aren't you pedantic?" Those tribes, with more hatred for each other than we do, are simply incompatible. We can buy Tibetan slaves from the Dangxiang people, Khitan slaves from the Murowei tribe, and slaves from the Western Regions from the Uighurs...... Only those thorns that jumped out were cleaned up by us, how about it, you know! ”

"The ancestral religion has given us a combination of vertical and horizontal, distant and close attacks, division and disintegration, and each one is broken...... If you don't learn so many good things, you have to talk about benevolence and righteousness, the royal way, Huairou, you tell the barbarians about this, do they understand? This is playing the piano to the cow, in vain! ”

……

The result of this debate is obvious, Wang Pu has completely lost.

But he has one last trick.

"Your Majesty, it is true that what the champion Hou said is reasonable, but treating Siyi like this, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not attract gossip, and the countries of Jiangnan, they will also chew their tongues, I am afraid that they will hurt Your Majesty's Shengming, and the old minister thinks that he should think twice!"

"Not necessarily!"

Chai Rong waved his hand violently, and he laughed and said, "I have listened to the words of Master Wang and Ye Qing. I am the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the son of heaven of the Han family, and I have never thought of being a heavenly khan! As for the southern countries, as long as the Great Zhou National Strength is sufficient, wherever the troops go, they will only look at the wind and fall! How could I be afraid of gossip! ”

Chai Rong said to Ye Hua again: "Ye Qing, what you just said, I think it's still too polite. ”

Ye Hua took a breath, his words were polite? My majesty, what do you want to do?

Seeing Ye Hua's face full of surprise, Chai Rong finally smiled, "Ye Qing, you said that you want to make all the men of Shatuo slaves, what about the women?" And how? ”

"This ...... Does Your Majesty want to make the best use of people's talents and materials? Ye Hua asked tentatively.

Chai Rong nodded happily, "That's right!" Your words remind me that it is true that the treasury is empty, and that rewards cannot be limited to money and official positions! The soldiers have followed me, and after so many years of fighting, it is time for someone to serve the bed warmer by my side! ”

What a considerate Emperor Your Majesty!

Ye Hua and Wang Pu were speechless, so they could only bow down together and thank God for the big guy.

Chai Rong smiled again: "Ye Qing, do you know what the soldiers are doing?" ”

Ye Hua shook his head.

"They are all celebrating, I know that the concubine Zhang Yongde is having a treat, he has captured hundreds of palace maids, and your good brother Chen Shi has also been abducted by them...... Let's go, go with me and greet the big guys! ”

Chai Rong smiled meaningfully, got up and strode outside.

Ye Hua is so smart, the emperor is smiling too insidiously, I'm afraid someone is going to be unlucky!

Stone, I hope you don't hit the muzzle of the gun.

Ye Hua hurriedly followed, Wang Pu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but smile, this is a good show...... Among the martial artists, that is, Ye Hua, a freak, can give him anger, and the others are not worth mentioning!

The old man wants to take advantage of this opportunity to get back all the face he just lost!

When Wang Pu thought of this, his steps were brisk, as if he was twenty years younger, and even Ye Hua couldn't keep up.

The three monarchs and ministers, with only a few guards, came directly to the prime minister's mansion in the city.

At the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Guo Wuwei shrank his head and was looking around...... It's also embarrassing to say that a dignified prime minister can't even keep his home.

Zhang Yongde wants to have a treat, he doesn't dare to go to the palace, the other mansions are either burned, or they are not spacious and decent enough, and there is no way, so they can only borrow the prime minister's mansion!

Guo Wuwei has nowhere to go, so he can only watch the door for the generals of the Great Zhou outside!

What is this called?

Do nothing, do nothing!

He's the right name!

Even the work of Qinglou has been accepted, what else can not be done?

There's no place for this old face!

He has the heart to hit his head to death, but he doesn't have the courage, Zhang Yongde said clearly, if you are honest, I will not move your family, otherwise your Guo Wuwei's daughter, daughter-in-law, and even grandson will not be able to run away!

"These big Zhou warriors don't have a good thing!" Just as he was complaining, he found that the three of them were coming, Guo Wuwei's face changed in shock, and he hurriedly kowtowed!

Chai Rong said with a calm face: "Are those beasts who don't grow up all in there?" They are simply bold, do they still have me in their eyes? The rules of the army have made them corrupt! ”

The emperor is so angry, this is the Xingshi asking the guilt!

Guo Wuwei was overjoyed, Da Zhou Tianzi still has to clean up people's hearts, at least he has to make a show, not too much! He immediately snorted and cried, "The saints, generals, he, they are too much...... Please let the saints call the shots! ”

Chai Rong bowed his head, "Since I am here, I will uphold justice, you can follow me in!" ”

Guo Wuwei was overjoyed, hurriedly got up, obediently followed behind Chai Rong, and thought in his heart that Chai Rong could not dispose of too many people, at most he would beat it, and that's it, who would let them be the people who died in the country!

Guo Wuwei didn't notice at all that behind him, Ye Hua had a cannibalistic gaze, and he dared to sue, you old thing still can't figure out the situation!

"Go, ask me, how many women of the same age there are in the Guo family, don't let one go!"
