Chapter 386: Xue Wanche's Request
The instructions given by Qin Hao, the Duke of Rongguo, who came from Chang'an, on the first day of Pyongyang, soon spread throughout the peninsula.
This is the first time someone said that the Buyeo people are also the people of the Tang Dynasty.
For a while, most of the Buyeo people all high-fived and celebrated, although they still hated Datang, but their perception of Qin Hao was much better, to put it figuratively, the vast majority of Buyeyu people are currently eager to break the whole Datang people into pieces, but Qin Hao can keep a whole corpse.
Not only that, less than five days after Qin Hao took office, he successively released his goodwill on different occasions, preached his Huairou thoughts everywhere, and repeatedly proposed the abolition of the fourth-class national system, which is extremely oppressive and extremely insulting to the Buyeo people.
But it's a pity that the deputy capital protects Xue Wanche and bites it, saying that he doesn't agree with anything, I heard that Rong Guogong and him fight all day long for this, and they pinch it as soon as they meet, so that the people of Fuyu hate Xue Wanche even more, and everyone wants to eat his flesh raw.
However, at this time, in the minds of the Buyeo people, two people who are incompatible with water and fire, are setting up a copper pot, eating hot pot happily, and warming two pots of wine.
As the old saying goes, one piece and one relaxation, the way of civil and military, and the fourth-class citizenship system will be abolished sooner or later, but it must not be now, if it is abolished now, the entire peninsula will become a plate of scattered sand in an instant, especially those Han regiments under Xue Wanche, and the team does not need to be brought.
But this doesn't mean that the two of them can't perform double reeds, as long as they are in front of outsiders, they show a look of unhappiness looking at each other, one sings red face and one sings black face, one advocates softness, and the other advocates toughness, so that everyone on the peninsula can find a backer on political tendencies, and can gradually and imperceptibly change each other's thinking.
Perfect.
Xue Wanche is a bright person, and he doesn't mind being blackened at all, anyway, he is the king of the black pot even in Chang'an, so he is used to it.
Eating the tumbling slices of meat, Xue Wanche and Qin Hao also chatted.
"Zhenheng, I have not returned to Chang'an for nearly a year since I went out to the present, and my soldiers have not returned to Chang'an, I heard that Chang'an has changed a lot now, as long as the people have hands and feet, and are willing to work hard, they can eat enough, and even eat meat, is it true."
Qin Hao said with a smile: "The Great Voyage, it is really more important than the development of the Hexi Corridor, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is to communicate with each other, so many things that have never been seen in at once, it is almost equal to the wealth that has increased out of thin air, and it will naturally prosper, otherwise why do you think so many people will come to Liaodong to catch slaves?" ”
Xue Wanche said with a smile: "This is a good thing, since the sage ascended the throne, the national strength of my Datang has been stronger day by day, and the people have suffered for so many years, and finally ushered in a good life, but unfortunately, I am responsible for defending the land and cannot return to Beijing at will." ”
Qin Hao felt that Xue Wanche had something to say, so he said, "Uncle Xue, what do you mean... If there is anything that the little nephew can do, the little nephew will never refuse. ”
"Hey, that's nothing, it's just that I've heard that now your navy soldiers have all made a fortune, right?"
Qin Hao didn't deny it, and said: "That's right, now is the beginning of the Age of Sailing, and the Qing Gang will naturally earn more when they master sea ships." ”
Xue Wanche sighed and said, "Alas! In fact, it's not just your Green Gang, I've heard a lot recently, these days the court has been rich, the first to get rich is the government soldiers, not only your Green Gang, the warrior Tong in Xining is said to be also impressive, I heard that he also advised the sage to rebuild the three counties of the Han Dynasty, and said that without a penny of the imperial court, an acre of land, you can build the West Hammer Mansion soldiers. ”
Qin Hao said, "Xining is the fortress of the Hexi Corridor, and it is also the land supply station connecting the Western Regions and Datang, especially after the sea is opened, our Datang can send more things to the Western Regions, and he has indeed made a lot of money recently, if he can take the opportunity to restore the Wuwei of Dunhuang in the Han Dynasty, it is also a good thing." ”
I heard Xue Wanche say: "Zhenheng, everyone can see that the idea of the warrior Tong was completely learned from you, you are the God of Wealth of the Tang Dynasty, and you are the first contributor to the changes in the Tang Dynasty in the past two years, and I know that even the Qing Gang who maintained law and order in Silla Baekje have also made a fortune, right?" ”
"Uh... This one..... After all, people come all the way here, huh. This one.... ”
Xue Wanche patted his thigh excitedly and said, "Who didn't come all the way over!" Uncle said something not so pleasant, your Qinggang sailors are really powerful with boats, but just those armies of yours in Baijiang City? What kind of thing is that, what is that soldier, that is the martial marquis who maintains law and order! ”
Probably feeling excited, Xue Wanche hurriedly added: "I don't mean anything else, nephew, uncle, I am a martial artist, I can't speak, oops, I mean... I mean... ”
Qin Hao smiled and said, "Understand, understand, Uncle Xue is for the soldiers under your command." ”
Xue Wanche slapped his thigh and said, "Yes, yes, that's what I mean!" You also know my situation in the imperial court, to speak from the heart, I am really grateful to the sage, the prince of the year will definitely not have such a mind as a sage, although the sage likes to let me gnaw hard bones, but the reward that should have has never fallen, this time it is the county prince, I am satisfied, never dare to have the slightest resentment, really. ”
"But Zhenheng, my soldiers are different, although there is merit in gnawing hard bones, but the credit is all on my head, on the head of middle-level generals, my soldiers have not made a fortune, you see Cheng biting them, although the credit is not big, but how many general coupons did they snatch this time? said that thirty percent belonged to himself, but who didn't secretly hide it, what about me? has been gnawing around the new city, the hardest bone in all Goguryeo! After the defeat, Lao Tzu's tens of thousands of soldiers didn't even scrape out the usual money! My heart is so uncomfortable!! ”
"This battle is over, my soldiers are left to sweep the tail, and now I am the protector, but my soldiers, that is also thousands of miles away from home! I don't hide it, the population smuggling of the Buyeo people, my soldiers definitely didn't do it directly, but did my soldiers know when those ancient Han people did it? I know, I must know that they also take profits from it, but I don't have the face to care about you, you know? I really don't have that face. ”
Qin Hao said: "So Uncle Xue, do you want me to help your soldiers find a source of wealth?" ”
Xue Wanche's eyes lit up, and he said again and again: "Yes, yes, that's what I mean, that's what I mean, why is he a warrior Tong is the capital protectorate, I am also the capital protectorate, and the population under the jurisdiction of my capital protectorate is much more than him, why are his soldiers rich, my soldiers are all poor, virtuous nephew, if you have a way, I will go and tell the sage, even if I don't want this county prince, I am willing, really." ”
Qin Hao smiled bitterly, Xining relies on the Silk Road to do business, and Liaodong mainly relies on ships to do business, so there is no land trade route at all.
