This is no room for negotiation, Yang Gang and Huangfu Wuyi breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, they have done everything they can do, and the rest has nothing to do with them; As for how to arrange Empress Xiao's activities in Chang'an, Yang Chong and Du Fuwei must have their own plans, and the two had no intention of saying more, so they got up and retired. Pei Ju didn't speak, and waited for the room to be full of his own people before he spoke: "King Yue, some things have to be guarded against, one person is unhappy, it is better than tens of millions of people unhappy." ”

Yang Chong nodded knowingly and said, "Wait for the war report from the south to see when Han Shige can start the plan of Nanfu County." ”

Wang Xiong's troops had been forcing Lingnan for several months, and there was no conflict with Feng An, due to Ling Jing's planning, he only symbolically sent Lin Du with a thousand soldiers to Qinzhou to join Ning. The rapid progress was made by Han Shige and Chen Zhiluo, who occupied Jian'an County, Yi'an County, Nanhai County, Xin'an County and other places in one fell swoop, and Gao Facheng, Xian Baoche and others surrendered and confronted Feng An's army in the northwest of Xin'an County.

Chen Zhiluo was originally a wealthy family in Lingnan, and with Liu Xun's clever tongue, more than 50 cottages in the southern mountainous area of Xin'an County lobbied to submit to him, and the situation can be described as very good. However, Pei Ju and others knew that Yang Chong had set up enough sincere conditions for this, in addition to mobilizing students from the Moru family to run the school, he would also open kiln factories, shipyards, sugar factories, and tea factories in four counties such as Xin'an County, from Gao Facheng and Xian Baoche to more than 50 cottage owners, as well as local wealthy families in other counties, as long as they wanted, they could participate.

Xie Nengyu, who had been in Hebei, and Song Qingquan, a Taoist priest from Wuyi Mountain, as Yang Chong's personal representatives, accompanied Liu Xun to Lingnan to be in charge of negotiations on interests. Wuyi Mountain belongs to Jian'an County, not very far from Xin'an County and other places, Yang Chong just moved his mouth, took out a sum of silver, and Song Yuquan created a new world of tea, which is a well-known fact; According to Yang Chong's instructions, Xie Nengyu, Song Qingquan, and Han Shige came forward together, and they have jointly opened tea workshops and porcelain workshops in Jian'an County and Yi'an County, so that the heroes of Nanhai County and Xin'an County have peace of mind.

Pei Ju was one of the people who participated in the formulation of the entire plan, and knew that Yang Chong's purpose was not to eliminate Feng An, but to let Feng Ang do what Chang'an wanted, not to be the emperor of the soil behind closed doors in Lingnan alone, and to do whatever he wanted. Lingnan East Road is a litmus test, and the key to the focus is Nanfu County; The Chen family of Luzhou and Gaoliang Feng Xi and the Ning family of Qinzhou are called the three major clans of Lingbiao, Chen Zhiluo is from the Chen family of Luzhou, and it is Chen Longshu, a nephew of Chen Zhiluo, who mentioned the concept of Nanfu County.

Chen Longshu and Feng Ang had a grudge against their father, after the death of his father Chen Fozhi, he couldn't stay in Luzhou, and he had been attached to Ning Changzhen in Qinzhou, and after Ning Changzhen returned to Chang'an, as Chen Zhiluo continued to send people back, Chen's forces were able to return to Luzhou. Longzhou is mainly Duanxi Luo Dou Zhudong, Huaide County was set up during the Great Cause, but the mountain people were not naturalized, it belonged to the county of Jianmi, and the administration was served as the chief of the local Xi'an chieftain, each of them was in charge of their own affairs, and the territory was mixed with the slang bureaucrats, and it became the place where the three major families of Feng, Chen and Ning competed.

Chen Longshu is still relatively smart, knowing that his strength is weak, and only with the help of Chen Zhiluo and Chang'an's strength can he gain a firm foothold, and secretly sent an envoy to see Chen Zhiluo, willing to turn Luzhou into a county directly under Chang'an; Before Chen Zhiluo went south, Chang'an secretly formulated a plan for this purpose, and decided to upgrade Huaide County to Nanfu County at the appropriate time. However, considering the low production capacity of Luo Dou Zhudong, Yang Chong and Pei Ju decided to subsidize the grain when they designed the plan.

Yang Chong did this because he determined that Luo Dou was the Xinyi of the later generations, and the golden sand jade, known as the southern jasper, was there, the jade was soft and moist, the stone pattern was elegant, crystal like ice, and there were various colors such as yellow-green, blue-green, and black. Yang Chong did not hide from Han Shige and Chen Zhiluo and others, but considered commercial tax as the mainstay, and asked Chen Zhiluo to discuss with Luo Dou Zhudong, as long as the jade was mined according to the requirements, the imperial court would set up a market supervisor to be responsible for the transaction of Yushan, and when the time came, not to mention grain, even cloth and other daily necessities could be exchanged at the same price.

Pei Ju said with a smile: "Although King Yue is relieved, Han Shige and others have both humanities and martial arts, there must be no problem." ”

Yun Dingxing and Feng Deyi did not participate, and after listening to Pei Lian's introduction, Feng Deyi asked Yang Chong quietly: "King Yue, in this way, what if Feng Ang increases his chips later?" ”

Feng Deyi and Yang Chong's views are the same, Feng An's current attitude is uncertain, and in the end it is likely to find a decent step down, but Yang Chong must show goodwill at that time, and this kind of goodwill can not be small, a Chen Longshu and Luo Dou Zhudong is the price of Yushan Bao mining, so Feng Ang occupies thousands of miles, what kind of price can be compared with the nine counties of Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue in the Han Dynasty.

Yang Chong smiled and said: "Lingnan is close to the sea, rich in fishery, and the local climate is suitable for sugarcane production, I have asked Feng Zhiji to write back, as long as he Feng Ang agrees to follow my steps, I will give him the recipe for fish sauce and sucrose, and let him open a fish sauce workshop and sugar factory in Hepu County, and we will do it together in the shipyard in Guangzhou and the caravan in the future." ”

Feng Deyi believes that Yang Chong has a small goal, that is, to put soy sauce, salt, sugar, and vinegar on the table of the common people, if Feng Ang can produce them on a large scale in Lingnan, it means that the price of fish sauce and cane sugar will fall, according to Yang Chong's means, Feng Ang will never be allowed to monopolize these industries, and it must be to lower the price when Feng Ang makes money. And Feng Ang doesn't rely on these workshops to live, as long as he lies down to make money, and has nothing to do with Chang'an, it definitely doesn't matter if he has less profits.

Yun Dingxing frowned and said, "I'm afraid that Feng Ang is now difficult to ride a tiger, and he can't be the master himself." ”

Pei Lian smiled and said: "Lord Yun doesn't need to worry, King Yue has already agreed with Feng Zhiji, in case something happens to Feng An, Feng Zhiji will take over the position of the head of Gaozhou, if it is really Yang Gongqing, Zhen Xueqing and others in Lingnan, they should know that it is the last area they can move, and they will not be so reckless." What I really have to worry about is the temple. The chief of the Tan Dian Alliance in the clouds and mist and Yunkai Mountains has taken over the status of the Chen clan in the Huaide Mountains, and now he is very close to Ning Daoming and Feng An's eldest brother Feng Xuan, and they are all clamoring for independence, and more than half of the range of Nanfu County is in the hands of Tan Dian. ”

Yun Dingxing was stunned for a moment, and then understood that the person Yang Chong wanted to fight was not Feng An, but Tan Dian and Feng Xuan, only by solving these people, could we see Feng An's true face, and also show the strength of Chang'an.
