Chapter 408: Meet Liu Yu
After talking about a business, Ye Chen was in a good mood, he liked this kind of business the most, and others would be very grateful ~щ~~lā when he made money
Gongsun Chan has to be grateful, the entire Liaoxi has been seriously damaged, and it is very difficult to recover by Liaoxi's own strength, at least for several years to recover, and a large number of people will be lost during the period.
But with Ye Chen's help, then the situation is different, with a large number of farm tools and seeds, many people can be retained, and with production, it can be restored in a year, not only can the people live, but the government can also collect more taxes to maintain.
And Ye Chen is not afraid that the other party will repay the debt, he wants the loan certificate issued by the Liaoxi government, if you don't pay it back, I will get it myself, even if I change someone to be the Taishou Ye Chen, I am not afraid that the other party will not recognize it.
If you don't give it to me, you will interfere in your internal affairs, like a superpower in later generations, if you owe someone else, you will pay the debt, and if you don't pay what others owe him, you will interfere in the internal affairs of others or directly threaten with force.
Helped Gongsun Zan solve a big problem, he was a lot easier along the way, and now he is sending food to get by, although Liaoxi still can't solve the food problem, but they still have Liu Yu, even if Liu Yu can't help solve it, then it's a big deal to go to those big families to borrow, the family has a lot of food.
A few days later, Ye Chen and the others rushed to Jixian County, rested for the night, and went to see Liu Yu together the next day.
"I've seen Liu Yuanjun." Ye Chen and Gongsun Chan met.
"Haha, please get up, please get up, you are all great heroes of Youzhou." Liu Yu walked over with a smile, helped the two of them up, and then said, "Come, please sit down, it's been hard all the way." ”
Ye Chen and Gongsun Zhan sat down, this time it was Liu Yu's private banquet, so there were only the three of them and some subordinates.
"I have already reported the merits of the two to the imperial court, and there will be a commendation in the near future." Liu Yu said.
Ye Chen and Gongsun Chan thanked each other, they had nothing to look forward to Ye Chen, they were going to Luoyang soon, and it would definitely be inevitable to become an official when the time came, and it would be more secure to take the official position by themselves.
"Both of them are the talents of my Youzhou, they are the pillars, and the old man still has to rely on a lot of things next, although this pure traitor is gone, he still has more than 10,000 troops under his command, and he is in collusion with the Huns, which is a threat."
Historically, Zhang Chun rebelled and plagued Youzhou for four years before being repulsed, and now it was quickly extinguished with Ye Chen's intervention, but the situation has also changed, in the original history, Zhang Chun colluded with Wuhuan, and now he has been replaced by the Huns.
"My lord, give me a year, a year for me to prepare my army for war, and I will definitely be able to enter the grassland, kill Zhang Chun's traitors, and expel the Huns." Hearing Liu Yu's words, Gongsun Zhan immediately stood up and clenched his fists and said.
Gongsun Zhan is violent, it is indeed possible to train an elite soldier in a year, and it is not impossible to kill Zhang Chun and expel the Huns, the key is that does Youzhou have that strength today?
There are too many things needed to train an army, and the cost is huge, can Youzhou afford it? Liu Yu is a good governance expert, in history, Youzhou has developed rapidly under Liu Yu's governance, is very prosperous, and is very stable, but now Liu Yu has just entered Youzhou, and all this has not been realized.
Ye Chen shook his head secretly, although this Gongsun Zhan was brave, but he didn't know the situation, no wonder in history, although he was able to defeat Liu Yu, he couldn't dominate one side.
"What do you think?" Liu Yu didn't answer Gongsun Zhan's words, and saw Ye Chen watching his nose and nose on the side, so he took the initiative to ask him.
"Liu Yuanjun, Brother Gongsun, this Zhang Chun is actually not a cause for concern, his more than 10,000 people are put together, and he doesn't have much combat effectiveness, but now there is no territory, and he doesn't have the strength to train more than 10,000 people, and it is impossible for the Huns to support him in training the army."
Ye Chen glanced at the two of them, and found that the two of them were listening to him as usual: "And the Huns are defeated this time, and it is impossible to organize forces to attack in the short term, so during this time, we should vigorously restore the people's livelihood, and when the people's livelihood is stable, we have enough money and food, and then make plans. ”
"Haha, okay, you are worthy of being the pillar of the country, that's right, now is the time to vigorously develop people's livelihood." Liu Yu didn't say what to do after the development of people's livelihood, obviously he had his own ideas, Ye Chen of course knew that Liu Yu was mainly to pacify, and when he was in Youzhou in history, several nomads in the north would indeed not come to Youzhou to plunder.
Gongsun Zhan was not disgusted by Ye Chen's words, he hated these nomads very much, and he always wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible, but now Youzhou is indeed not strong enough.
"Alas, now the entire Youzhou has been hit, and my new official took office, and I have already raised a large amount of money and grain from those big families last time, this time, I am afraid that I will not be able to raise such a large amount of money, but the entire Youzhou needs a lot of money and grain to develop, and more importantly, it will start spring soon, and a large number of farm tools and seeds are needed."
Liu Yu sighed and said, although his words were not finished, but Ye Chen and Gongsun Zan both knew that this level was difficult, although Liu Yu had a lot of energy, he couldn't think as much as he wanted, especially this time many great families were also looted, and the losses were also very large.
"Liu Yuanjun, this time Zhang Chun's traitors and the Xiongnu have dealt a very big blow to the entire Youzhou, and they urgently need money and food to stabilize, although my Liaodong is remote, and the losses suffered this time are not greater than those of other counties." Ye Chen stopped here and glanced at Liu Yu.
Liu Yu also had a bitter face when he heard this, he knew the situation in Liaodong very well, but there were more than 100,000 enemy troops to plague Liaodong, so he didn't have any doubts about Ye Chen's words.
Ye Chen changed his words and said: "However, now the difficulties of the entire Youzhou are difficult to overcome, therefore, Liaodong should need my Ye family to bear independently, and I don't need the slightest bit in the state, I think my Ye family is also a century-old family, although the foundation is shallow, but it is also a native of Liaodong, and I can't see the people of Liaodong suffering and ignore it." ”
"Youguo Gaoyi, Gaoyi, please be worshiped by the old man." Liu Yu was greatly moved when he heard this, if Ye Chen didn't say it, then the money and grain raised by Liu Yu must also be divided into Liaodong, because several counties in Liaodong are also under the rule of Youzhou, and he must not favor one over the other.
"I can't do it, I can't do it." Liu Yu actually wanted to bow to Ye Chen, where did Ye Chen dare to accept it, and quickly stood up.
"No, Youguo deserves this worship, my worship is for the entire people of Youzhou, if it weren't for Youguo to turn the tide this time, now the rebels are still raging in Youzhou, and now the entire Youzhou is in trouble, the Ye family is so righteous and can afford the revival of the people of Liaodong."
After speaking, Liu Yu insisted on worshipping, but Ye Chen had no choice but to accept this worship.
