Chapter 884: Thriving

Lv Peng can't always covet the warmth of the family, after 3 days of warmth at home, Lv Peng dressed neatly, sat in the lobby of Youzhou, and accepted the hundred officials to report to him about the work of more than half a year.

After Lu Peng's stirring up of the grassland, the grassland is completely chaotic, the tripartite balance of forces has been formed, and now they want to invade the Central Plains again, that is because they have the heart of the thief and not the courage of the thief, and more importantly, they do not have the ability and energy.

Therefore, the cabinet and the military department decided to withdraw the 80,000 horses of the senior cadres to Youzhou, and after resting, continue to be the mobile force of Youzhou, ready to attack the next target, and Xu Huang will still stay in the north, with his 20,000 elite soldiers, for the entire Han Dynasty, for the Youzhou group to tighten the northern fence and become a barrier in the north.

Xu Huang in this war against the grassland, completely played his prestige, very much Li Guang's momentum, as long as he sat there, it was worth 100,000 male soldiers, so that the alien race of the grassland no longer dared to look south.

It is precisely because of Xu Huang's prestige that Zahu and Bu Dugen now took the initiative to move their tribe north for a thousand miles, and no longer dared to take the next step south, so within this thousand mile range, with Xu Huang's prestige, countless Han people began to drag their families and infiltrate the vast area within a thousand miles, of course, Xu Huang strictly implemented the precedent of Youzhou, that is, to sell this piece of grassland again, so that the treasury of Youzhou was once again filled, and he made Mi Zhu's original tired guy, Now he is as fat as a ball, that fat face, he can only see two rows of snow-white teeth every day, and two eyes that have been squeezed into a slit.

Xu Shu, as the first assistant of the cabinet, began to report to Lu Peng on the situation of the entire Youzhou.

"In Yizhou, the development of agriculture has been fully expanded, and now it has truly become the country of abundance, and this year it has achieved sufficient food self-sufficiency, and now the whole Yizhou can no longer see the hungry people, and they can not hear the cry of hunger and cold, and they have provided Zhang Yan and Yan Yan with sufficient grain and grass, not only that, but the grain and grass sold from Yizhou to Xiliang this year is enough for Lord Han Sui." Then Xu Shu summed up with satisfaction: "If we look at this development momentum, next year will be another year of wind and rain, the people of Yizhou will have surplus grain, and they will be able to supply the state, so that after two years, our food problem can completely abandon our dependence on the south of the Yangtze River and truly achieve self-sufficiency in our ruling area." ”

Lu Peng nodded with satisfaction, "There is food in my hands, I don't panic in my heart, we have developed too fast in recent years, the natural growth of the population, the influx of a large number of displaced people outside, and the needs of the grassland, so that we have exhausted our efforts in food, and the feeling of being strangled by Jiangnan is really uncomfortable, there is always a feeling of being suffocated. ”

was praised by the lord, and the young Pang Tong held the small beard under his chin and proudly pointed his nostrils directly to the sky.

"The situation of Xiliang is also very good, the merchants come and go, bringing their urgently needed living materials to the local Zahu, and at the same time, they have also turned the original worthless native products in their hands into money, life is rich, the society is stable, and the war-torn Xiliang is now a peaceful place."

"Boss Han Sui has made a lot of contributions to stabilizing Xiliang, and he should make a big contribution."

Xu Shu nodded, "Lord Han Sui not only contributed to this, but in this year or so, he also actively helped the garrison Wu Xing to plan a military strategy, raise military supplies, grain and grass, and let General Wu Xing go west, attack the original Western Regions, their goal is to open up the original Silk Road, break through the original blocked traffic for the goods of the Central Plains, and let the Silk Road open again, the results are remarkable, the Western Regions countries that have deviated from the Han Dynasty have already surrendered, and the others have begun to stop the merchants who come from the west and the eastNow on the streets of Youzhou, we can once again see merchants from the Western Regions. ”

Lu Peng clapped his hands: "This is a gratifying good news, the original Silk Road is opened again, not only will bring us countless wealth, but also strengthen the exchanges between the East and the West, here, you now inform Han Sui Boss, let him pinch our technology and resolutely not stay to the West, and then spare no expense, to the West to buy their technology, to buy their seeds, we do not have seeds, this is very important." ”

"There is General Xu Huang in the north of Bingzhou, which has become a peaceful place, and now the people and factories crowded in Youzhou have once again formed a wave of migration to Bingzhou, and I think in the near future, it will also be an important center for our handicraft industry."

"And I'm more concerned about war horses."

"We have built a horse farm there to breed excellent war horses for us, and we have implemented the policy of private official collection, so that we can mobilize the enthusiasm of the people, and we cannot be manipulated by the officials."

"There are many disadvantages of harsh horse politics, and if it is implemented in this way, it is both the government and the people, which is very good."

"Youzhou continues to prosper, and the industrial and commercial tax revenues of Youzhou alone are enough to cover the agricultural taxes of all other states, and now that our treasury is full, the cabinet is ready to bring it up, can you-"

Lu Peng immediately stopped Xu Shu's proposal and said to him solemnly: "I once again reiterate my rule that there will be no reduction or reduction of land rent, this is a matter of principle, and from now on, I don't want to hear anyone mention this issue again." ”

Xu Shu opened his mouth in embarrassment, and then could only change the topic: "Xinqingzhou is also quite stable, Cao Cao did not retaliate against those families who took refuge in us, business is very prosperous, and in general, everything is developing in a good direction." ”

This is the work that Lu Peng is doing now, when he is away, the cabinet is running at a high speed, but it is more efficient than his own personal personnel.

"Then that is to say, our development, everything is advancing in a good direction, if after the autumn harvest next year, I launch a war against Cao Cao and speed up the process of reunification, there should be no problem in the army and money and food."

Pang Tong stood up and stood beside Xu Shu, and the two of them saluted Lu Peng together: "There is no problem." ”

With the approval of the two military and political officials, Lu Peng stood up with confidence and said to the ministers: "The sky and the earth are big, and the New Year is the biggest. ”
