There was a sensation in the hall, Cui Fengju smiled awkwardly, Yang Chong chose Liyang because as a battlefield for contention, the local scholars were almost ransacked, and now it is completely the world of Xu Shiji's old department and the Tuntian army of the Hexi Army. Especially after Li Shimin's defeat in Hejian, a large number of retired soldiers and their families migrated over, at first I thought it was the reason for Yinxu, but now I see that Yang Chong has already planned.

Yecheng was originally also a big city, in the Three Kingdoms and Xuchang, Jinling as famous, Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao, occupied Yecheng as the royal capital, and later Cao Wei, Later Zhao, Ran Wei, Qianyan, Eastern Wei, Northern Qi six dynasties capital, living in the Yellow River Valley political, economic, military, cultural center for 400 years. According to Yang Chong's ability, it is very easy to restore such a place into a workshop city; Hao Xiaode stood up and said: "King Yue, let me go back to Anyang, I don't want to be a county guard, or Tuntian, and by the way, I will take charge of the iron factory." ”

Yang Chong shook his head with a smile and said, "I can't control you, look for world achievements." ”

The audience burst into laughter, Xu Shiji is not your Yang Chong's subordinate, you say a word, can Xu Shiji not listen? Xu Shiji looked at Hao Xiaode's earnest eyes, and said helplessly: "The three counties are all assigned to you, and you serve as the governor of Xiangzhou Tuntian." ”

Hao Xiaode turned out to be Liu Heimin's boss, and when Li Mi was defeated and fled, he was persuaded by Cui Minshou to join the Hexi Army and has been in charge of Tuntian; And Liu Heimin stood out under the cultivation of Yang Chong and became the general of the Sixteenth Guard. When everyone admired Yang Chong's eyes like a torch, Hao Xiaode would inevitably be a little disappointed, and returning to Anyang was also a good choice. When the banquet was about to end, Cui Fengju still asked: "King Yue, how is Bohai Bay going to be developed?" ”

"There's no hurry." Yang Chong said impatiently: "When Yingzhou is stable, we will make a plan." ”

Du Yan came this time and brought a piece of news, Yang Chong added a son and a daughter in a month, and he was very happy in his heart, and named Cui Yaosheng's son Yang Jing, and Yuan Xiansheng's daughter named Yang Lian. In order to celebrate, Yang Chong specially went to the tomb of his father-in-law Cui Hongsheng nearby, and appointed another father-in-law, Yuan Min, as the Yue Wangfu Shi Cao Shen military, although it was only a symbolic position, but on behalf of Yuan Min was enabled.

Yang Chong came back from sweeping the tomb, Cui Mansion held a grand welcome ceremony, Yang Chong gave the Cui family enough face, all the promises were fulfilled, what was not satisfied with the Cui family, Yang Chong and the people of Cui Mansion talked very happily, from the hundred schools of thought to the garden structure, but the two sides appropriately avoided the two more sensitive topics of business and gate valves.

The last topic fell on the economy of Hebei, during the Three Kingdoms period, the weight of the world was no more than Hebei, Yecheng and Nanpi were all important places for grain, so Yang Chong still thought that he should focus on agriculture, as for the salt industry, those things were just an opportunity to make a fortune. Cui Hongsu and Cui Baoshan looked at each other and smiled bitterly, Cui Hongsu said: "After several years of war, Hebei personnel withered, most of the land is not in the hands of the government, and the Guanzhong gate valve likes to collect money, the Shandong Shi clan values the land the most, even a big family like us is no exception." ”

This is a faint threat, or a reminder, if Yang Chong wants to forcibly start from the land, it is likely to affect the interests of the large and small scholars, the Cui family may not matter, but at the juncture of interests, the Cui family may not be able to suppress others, Qinghe Cui's attitude is unknown, and the influence of the Zhaojun Li family and the Fanyang Lu family is not under the Cui family. Yang Chong smiled faintly: "As long as you want to develop, you will always find a way." ”

Yang Chong is waiting for the reply of Saxi, Sa Xi is actually equivalent to settling in the Central Plains, and he does not plan to return to Persia in this life, unlike Mibis who opened a money village and a flour mill in Chang'an, Sa Xi is specialized in trade, but he was cut off from the supply of diamonds and Dahe Mohui by Mibis, and had to go to Hebei to do the business of licking blood with knives. Yang Chong gave an opportunity, that is, to let Sa Xi take the lead in Beiping to build a real private bank, and Sa Xi is looking for a partner these days.

Sa Xi did not disappoint Yang Chong, and on the day Pei Ju left Zhuo County, he brought three big merchants from Beiping, one of whom turned out to be Wendal of Kangguo, and the other two were Jing Beihai, a merchant from Yanshan, and Lu Yan, the largest leather merchant in Yingzhou. Yang Chong greeted Wendal warmly: "Minister, how did you start a business?" ”

Wendal said with a wry smile: "Thanks to the fact that King Yue and the Western Turks have been living in peace, without the threat of the Great Sui, the shooting was able to go all out to conquer the south and the north, Kang was defeated a year ago and became a vassal state of the Western Turks, I offended the nobles of the Western Turks, so I escaped with Kang Shiyuan, all the way to Chang'an, and listened to Abu's introduction to Hebei." King Yue, I am helpless in the Central Plains, and I hope you will cover me in the future. ”

Yang Chong said with a smile on the surface that it must be certain, but he had a trace of dissatisfaction with Dai Zhou and Qu Tugai in his heart, Kang Guo is the leader of the Zhaowu Zhucheng, and Kang Guo's surrender means that the Zhaowu Zhucheng has become the sphere of influence of the Western Turks, and the two of them are guarding the two Western Regions passages of Gaochang and Shanshan, but they have not received any news at all. However, Yang Chong still temporarily let go of his worries about the Western Turks and carefully looked at Jing Beihai.

Jing Beihai looks like a pampered son, dressed in brocade and jade, free and easy; But Yang Chong knew that this person was the biggest smuggling leader in Yanshan, and he was in and out of the Cui family's Lu family like an ordinary door, from weapons to salt, there was no business he didn't dare to do. Jing Beihai felt the huge pressure, and forced a smile to salute: "I have admired Wang Shenwu for a long time, and when I see it today, it is more majestic than the rumors." ”

Jing Beihai was at ease in Yanshan, and he didn't want to determine the direction so early, but the Cui family and the Lu family wrote to persuade him and told him that in this matter, it must be Shunchang's rebellion; Yang Chong heard the reluctance in Jing Beihai's words, and said with a smile: "People who rely on their ability to eat should be like this, King Yue is just an official position, what's the big deal." Lu Yan, do you say yes, when I met with the head of the Lu family two days ago, I still talked about you. ”

Jing Beihai smiled embarrassedly, and had a good impression of Yang Chong; Lu Yan knew that the head of the family, Lu Yanqing, had come to see Yang Chong, and said with a smile on his face when he heard this: "The head of the family has told the villain, and everything is subject to the orders of the prince." ”

When did Fan Yang Lu talk so well, it was not because Yang Chong had already said that he would not interfere in Qianzhuang's business, Yang Chong nodded slightly and said: "How Qianzhuang makes money is your own business, what has to do with me is taxes, Linyu Town will be a squeeze for trading with the Turks, but even if there is this squeeze, it is still impossible for the Huhan trade in Lulong County, Beiping County, and Wuzhong County, Yuyang County, to disappear, so I have talked to Lu Yanqing and Liu Heimin, do a pilot, and give you the commercial tax package of Wuzhong County." ”
