Chapter 546: Promotion
Su Dingfang asked about plotting the world, Yang Chong was going to go south or north first, Yang Chong put a piece of potato in his mouth and said: "Yang Gongqing has arrived in Nanyang, Fu Gongyou has returned to Danyang, now it depends on the attitude of Wang Hua and Lu Zushang, it is useless to be anxious." On the contrary, in the north, all the Guancheng are under the name of Yang Zhengdao, but he can't be the master, in order to prevent it from becoming Turkic territory one day, so he must move first. ”
Now the situation in the north is very similar to the Northern Song Dynasty, Yang Zhengdao's dozen counties are almost the territory of the sixteen states of Yunyan, and the strength of the Turks is only stronger than that of the Khitan, the only difference is that the Turks, Yang Shanjing, Li Shimin and others have not yet become a whole, and Yang Chong still has a chance. If Li Yuan's power in the south is extinguished, it may force these people to huddle together for warmth.
Su Dingfang replied: "After the Turks returned to the north, Tongye Hu took advantage of Xue Yantuo's loss of troops this time to attack Tiele on the Orkhon River; Tuli returned to the northeast, and Jieli Khan did not have many people available, so he could only rely on Liang Shidu and others to constantly harass the border to feed the war. As long as we don't care about Yang Zhengdao's opinion, we can take back the cities one by one, and Jieli Khan will definitely fight us again, and at the same time urge Li Shimin to send troops. ”
Yang Chong smiled and said: "That's a good point, so there will be one big battle after another, and each time the scale may be as many people as there are people." The more ruthless the external war, the higher the internal people will jump, and the burden on your shoulders will not be light; I am going to send Zheng Yuanshou as an envoy to Dingxiangcheng to discuss welcoming the family of the Son of Heaven back to Jiangdu, and it is a man's business to fight for the world, and women cannot always be involved in it. ”
In addition to the women of Yang Guang's father and son, Yang Guang's daughters and nieces who followed Empress Xiao to Dingxiang together, Yang Chong not only expressed his intentions, but also a differentiation of Dingxiang City. Wang Gong understands that Yang Chong really treats the people at the table as his henchmen, so he can say it so without taboos; Zhang Guolao chewed a piece of onion and asked Yang Chong: "You can't always arrange people to grow crops from the Yue Palace, right?" ”
Yang Chong replied: "Murong Zhengze and Zheng Ying both recommended Guo Zigao, saying that he was proficient in agricultural affairs and had experience in this area, and Chang'an had agreed to transfer Guo Zigao to serve as Si Nong Langzhong of the Left-behind Division, responsible for the cultivation of new varieties in Luoyang, and Yang Yanda as his deputy to supervise and assist; There is Mozhuo Academy in Chang'an, don't worry. After the potatoes are received, we will still plant so much in Yuewangfu next year, eat a little by ourselves, and let Mozhuo Academy continue to study how to grow better, and leave the promotion to Sinong Temple. ”
Yang Chong is not worried that the potatoes will not come out, but that someone is playing tricks inside, and Yang Yanda's task is to ensure that everything goes according to Yang Chong's plan; Even in the Yue Wangfu, Yang Yanda was only responsible for management, and the students and farmers of Mozhuo Academy who really spent their efforts on seedling cultivation were recorded. Zhang Guolao was very satisfied, Wang Gong and others were also satisfied, Yang Chong arranged it like this, and a year later, the food of potatoes in the Yue Wangfu could be put on the table as a normal dish.
After Guo Zigao took office, he immediately came to meet Yang Chong, listened to the introduction of potatoes, garlic, and onions, and looked at the experimental field of Yue Wangfu. In Guo Zigao's eyes, Yang Chong was more competent than Wang Shichong, Li Mi, and even Yang Guang. In order to bring pork to the table, Yang Chong took the lead in eating pork, which is still a joke muttered behind the eyes of the powerful.
After the Hexi Army occupied Henan, Yang Chonghe and the court continued to immigrate and reclaim, and the army tuntian; After recovering Jianghuai and introducing two crops of rice, it can be said that every step Yang Chongxiang takes is the people's livelihood. According to Yang Chong's capital, it is not a problem to expand the army by 200,000 more, and Yang Chong is willing to slow down the pace of reunification. Yang Chong's ideal of "three meals a day" in Hexi made Guo Zigao even more excited, which is much more useful than Feng Chan, and it is a real benefit to the people.
This time, Murong Zhengze went to Jiangnan to promote Zhancheng rice, Guo Zigao didn't expect that there were potatoes and other things to be handed over to him to promote, which can be said to be full of energy. said to Yang Chong on the spot: "King Yue rest assured, the lower officials will definitely do a good job in promotion and live up to the love of the prince and the court." ”
Tong Yehu also arranged for two farmers who could grow garlic and onions to come with him this time, and learned that according to the method of the Western Regions, garlic and onions were planted in September, Guo Zigao immediately opened up a field on the outskirts of Luoyang and began planting; The people of Chang'an are also planting these two things, Guo Zigao has no pressure is fake, if the government is not as good as the people, it will be discussed in all aspects.
Guo Zigao's attention is on the onion, garlic is a semi-annual plant, although there are few in the Central Plains, but the palace still has planting; However, onions are perennial plants, and since they were introduced in the Han Dynasty to this day, there is no longer a field in sight. Guo Zigao learned that onions were sown in September of the first year, and the seedlings were in the open field or stored for overwintering in winter; In the second summer, the large bulbs were harvested, from which the best individuals were selected, and the fields were planted in September. In the spring of the third year, the cue ball was planted, and the seeds were harvested in June, and it was about twenty-three months from sowing to harvesting the seeds.
As soon as Guo Zigao had free time, he went to the fields of the Yue Wangfu to watch the growth of potatoes, check the planting records and the cultivation brochures that the students were constantly compiling, and conduct field research with the students of Mozhuo Academy. Guo Zigao is a practical person, and he greatly appreciates the process of Mozhuo Academy, and the fields of Sinong Temple are also doing this kind of operation process.
Yang Chong specially sent someone to Jiangdu, so that Yu Qintao and Kou Jiuheng discussed, there is a plan to promote sugarcane in the south of the Yangtze River, and the sugarcane in the north and sugar cane in the south is the national sugar plan, and there is no trick to go, as for the fruit sugar and maltose in various places, they can only rely on the local government to see if there are any officials who come up with a good way.
In addition to several giants of the bank, Zhu Hongdao, Li Chunfeng, Cui Chujiu, Yuwenwen, Yang Qu, Hubu Shangshu Yanzao, Jianghuai transfer envoy Ling Jing, Jiangnan transfer envoy Kou Jiuxing, Si Nongqing Murong Zhengze, and Henan County Shouwang Ji all came to attend the meeting. Not to mention the major money banks and the officials below, as long as they receive the notice, they all arrive in Luoyang.
But when Fang Yanzao and the others arrived, they found that the two most critical characters, Yang Chong, the king of Yue, and Li Chunfeng, the person in charge of the bank, were gone, although Wang Gong, who came forward to receive them, said that it was okay, and the two just went out for a walk, but Fang Yanzao and these people were all ghost-like characters, and they knew that something was wrong.
