Hearing Lu Peng's advice, these businessmen's expressions became relaxed, Zheng Da stood up, and said to Lu Peng: "Thank you for your honesty to us, what your Excellency said, when we were in Pegasus Enclosure, we had already thought about it, and we were also trying to put forward a few conditions to your lordship, if your lord can agree, we will pay the money to the Youzhou household department to buy land when we go back." ”

Lu Peng looked at these businessmen playfully, and kept slandering in his heart: "This is really in response to that sentence, the Han nation's desire for land has reached the point of desperation, and the greed of these people makes them ignore the danger of existence, and they don't know whether this is pitiful or pathetic, or praiseworthy." When he thought of this, he arched his hand at these businessmen and said: "We are here, we must be honest with each other, explain what we say, and in the future, we will not be embarrassed or complain when we meet each other." Then he pointed to his nose and commented on himself very sincerely: "I am a sincere person, not a liar." ”

Zheng Da said solemnly: "Actually, we are willing to buy this land, just ask the adults to agree to our three simple conditions." ”

Lu Peng said solemnly: "Mr. Zheng said that if I can agree, there is no other thing." ”

Zheng Da's face showed a red tide of excitement, and he hurriedly said to Lu Peng: "Actually, the matter is very simple, adults will definitely be able to do it, and this is just an adult, a gesture." ”

"Tell me about it."

Zheng Daxian and everyone present made eye contact with each other: "The first is to ask Lord Zhou Mu to allow the opening of a mutual market in Yuyang, and allow the Central Plains and the grassland to trade with each other in Yuyang City, unimpeded." ”

In fact, this condition is within Lu Peng's plan. By opening up the border trade market, we can exchange materials between the grassland and the Central Plains, and now, I am the most urgent to do so. Because now some of the materials in their base areas have been flooded, and a new market must be opened for these materials.

For example, now his fist products, vermicelli, and liquor, these two things are consumables, not strategic materials, but because of their own base areas, almost all the wealthy families have invested a huge amount of money in these two products, resulting in some overcapacity, but Lu Peng can't limit the production of these factories, because this is related to the stability and development of his entire base area.

The unlimited construction of vermicelli workshops and distilleries has brought out several obvious benefits, the first of which is that the yams that were originally rotten on the street have a place to go. Because the sales of yam are promising, the price has continued to rise, although there are some signs of decline, but it still makes the people's income higher than ordinary farming, which makes the life of the people in their base areas richer.

The second advantage is that it has arranged countless young and strong jobs, which is very important.

Although the population base of their base areas has been strengthened, the pressure on public order and employment here is also becoming more and more huge, and when the displaced people come, they must not be allowed to starve, otherwise it will be the source of turmoil, and they must be given income.

The solution to their livelihood was that Lu Peng used to work for relief, but that would increase the financial difficulties of the entire government, and now the solution is to continue to contract land to them and allow them to open up wasteland, and the other is those workshops and factories, which absorb a large number of young and strong laborers. And the wages earned by a laborer can fully support a family, so that in disguise, it has led to the commercial prosperity of various places, and the so-called tertiary industry in later generations, such a virtuous circle, the whole Youzhou is prosperous, and the money and food are abundant.

However, with overcapacity, unsalable goods, and some factories have been under-operated, so Lv Peng must open a broad market for these goods, so Lv Peng has long set his sights on the grassland.

The Wuhuan people have been listed as a target that must be eliminated, but looking at the northern grasslands, there are Xianbei who are more powerful and populous than the Wuhuan people.

Transporting vermicelli rice, which can only be stuffed into the grassland, can improve the taste of their food, and mutton stewed vermicelli is definitely one of the delicacies in the world.

And his own cheap cost of the old white gan, grandly into the grassland, not only the price skyrocketed, but also by the grassland people's incomparably welcomed.

In the bitter cold and dry north, especially in winter, it is definitely a difficult pain to not have a good jar of wine. However, in the original Han Dynasty, winemaking was strictly controlled, because in the original Han Dynasty's wine workshops, all the raw materials for winemaking were real grain. If people still don't have enough to eat, where will there be surplus grain to make wine?

There is an allusion to the fact that Liu Bei and Xu Shu were walking on the street, and as a result, Liu Bei saw a common man holding a wine jug in his hand, and immediately ordered the soldiers to arrest him and prepare to punish him, because according to the regulations of the Han Dynasty, this is illegal.

At that time, Xu Shu pointed to another person and said, "Please arrest this person." ”

Liu Bei was surprised by the people who walked honestly, why did Xu Shu say that.

Xu Shu said: "This person is immoral and is ready to prostitute himself during the day." ”

Liu Bei was puzzled, so Xu Shu explained seriously: "This person openly brought yang and things to the street, isn't this preparing to prostitute himself during the day?" ”

At that time, Liu Bei laughed, knowing that he was too up-to-date, so he let go of the people who were carrying the wine jug. From this point of view, how strict the restrictions on liquor were in the Han Dynasty at that time, of course, these restrictions were only limited to the common people, and did not play any role at all for those wealthy families and officials at all levels. You are like Zhang Fei next to Liu Bei, you have to drink freely every day, and you drink a lot of alcohol, but you didn't hear Liu Bei go to punish him, even if Zhang Fei was a good drinker, Liu Bei also calmly persuaded him, that is.

Based on the above reasons, the wine flowing to the grassland is even more scarce, so in the grassland, a jar of ordinary low-alcohol liquor can be replaced by a sturdy ox.

Now the liquor produced in Lu Peng's base - yam Lao Bai Gan'er, is brewed from the original worthless yam, the cost is lower, it does not occupy a little grain at all, and it can also stimulate the local economy, drive the development of all walks of life, and bring a large amount of tax revenue to the government, so Lu Peng is ready to lift the ban on the sale of liquor to the grassland people, and implement it on a large scale.

There is another point, the wine thing, drink less pleasantly, drink more to hurt the body, a large number of people towards the grassland, those men of the grassland, heroic nature, where will they drink less? Hearty drinking is their character, so slowly, the warriors on the grassland will become drunkards, isn't this exactly what they want?
