"Yu Longke will enter Beijing together?!"

Han Gang and Wang Hou were taken aback. Yu Longke's merits in the victory of Guwei have already been rewarded, and Blind Medicine and Zhang Xiang'er entered Beijing because of their exploits in the Battle of Weiyuan. Yu Longke didn't do anything in this battle of Weiyuan, he was playing soy sauce from beginning to end, and he could also enter Beijing with him, there must be someone behind him:

"Who recommended him?!" The two asked in unison, and in their hearts, they already had a faint answer at this time.

Wang Shao threw the official document to Han Gang, "Yu Longke's name was added in Qinzhou. ”

As expected. Since it was done in Qinzhou, it should be clear who started it.

"What a Guo Zhongtong!" Wang Shao slapped the table and called Guo Kui with hatred. He is not angry that Yu Longke, who has no merits, can enter Beijing - even if Yu Longke has no merit at all, as long as he can go to the capital to show his obedience, Wang Shao can send him to Tokyo with eighteen people carrying him on his shoulders - but Guo Kui intervenes in the internal affairs of the department, which is intolerable for him.

Han Gang looked out of the hall, whether it was his own soldiers or the girls who were sent to serve, they all stood far away outside.

"Guo Zhongtong is too cautious. He sold Yu Longke well this time, didn't he just want to nail a nail into the appeasement division? ! Wang Hou complained. From the perspective of him and his Lao Tzu, he must be very resentful of Guo Kui's interference.

And Han Gang can at least keep calm: "If Taiwei Guo wants to take the credit of annexing Hehuang, he can't watch the edge of the pacification division take all the people of Gu Wei under his account." But with the results of Li Shizhong, Dou Shunqing and Xiang Bao in front, Taiwei Guo didn't want to turn his face when he wanted to come. Even if he wants to take the Marginal Pacification Division in his hands and appease the merits of the three wars, the Son of Heaven will at least not listen to and believe Guo Kui alone. ”

As long as Guo Kui had military merits, he began to suppress the belligerent heart of the Yuanbian Pacification Division after the Battle of Weiyuan, and at the same time warned Wang Shao and others in disguise. Although during this period of time, the Edge Pacification Division has indeed been farming honestly. But if Han Gang is Guo Kui, he won't believe that the Yuanbian Pacification Division will always be honest, so Guo Kui wants to dig a corner and give Wang Shao and others enough suppression to divide the combat power in his hands.

"Everything is divided into yin and yang, there is a bad side, and there is a good side. If Yu Longke doesn't leave, Blind Medicine will definitely not dare to leave Qingwei. "Blind medicine is honest and obedient under his hands, Han Gang naturally understands his hostility and scruples towards his brother Yu Longke, "Only after the Fan people go to Beijing to face the saint can they prove that he has returned to the imperial court." Mu Zheng, who is nested in the old nest, even if he accepts the position of Hezhou Assassin, no one will think that he will be a loyal minister of the Great Song Dynasty. This time, Yu Longke, Blind Medicine, and Zhang Xianger will enter Beijing together, which proves that the hard work of appeasing the past three years has not been in vain. From this aspect, Guo Kui actually did a good thing. ”

Han Gang did not advocate tearing his face with Guo Kui, it would not be beneficial to him, nor would it be conducive to the future war in Hehuang.

And what he said is reasonable, and at the same time, Guo Kui did a high-sounding thing in this matter, not directly intervening in the internal affairs of the border pacification department, but just nailing it down. Even though Wang Shao was dissatisfied in his heart, it was not easy to suppress Guo Kui's recommendation to Yu Longke.

Wang Shao thought about it for a long time, and asked himself if he still had the ability to suppress Yu Longke. After the most reluctant, he leaned back on the chair, relaxed and stretched: "Guwei Village is near, Qinzhou City is far away, let's see how brave Yu Longke has." He raised his head, smiled again, and asked Han Gang: "However, it is better to convince people with virtue than to convince people with strength." Yukun, what do you think? ”

Wang Shao wanted to catch Yu Longke in his hands, and the combination of grace and power was a necessary means. Wang Shao asked himself if he could suppress Yu Longke, but if he wanted to be gracious, he would have to compete with Guo Kui head-on.

If Han Gang heard about this this morning, he might still feel a little headache, and he would have to think of a way, but now the smell of astragalus in his stomach made him have an idea: "In the opinion of the following officials, it is better to give people fish, than to teach people to fish." ”

Wang Shao was stunned, but soon understood, and shook his head: "...... Yu Longke's fishing net is not small, eight horses a day! ”

Even if Wang Shao saw a few salt wells in the Qingtang Dynasty, he would be greedy, and the output of at least eight horses a day was worth nearly a hundred yuan. It is calculated as 35,000 a year, which is the foundation for the Qingtang Department to gain a foothold near Guwei.

You must know that thirty percent of Qin Fenglu's private salt flows out of the salt wells of the Qingtang Dynasty - speaking of the overflow of private salt, it can only be blamed on the fact that the current imperial court is too greedy and the salt price is too high. The average is twenty or thirty wen per catty, and the taste is still poor. A pound of private salt is only sold for seven or eight Wen, and the quality of private salt from the Qingbai Salt Pond in Xixia is one of the best in the world, but Qingbai Salt is mostly marketed in Hedong, Guanzhong, and Qinfeng Road, which is close to Longyou, is relying on private salt from Hehuang.

However, what Han Gang is talking about today is not salt: "Guwei is rich in products, not to mention salt and livestock, but also a lot of medicinal materials." Just now the astragalus stewed meat can be taken out on the table, which shows how much medicine is available in Zhang Xiang'er's hands. ”

Guwei is Longxi, Gansu Province thousands of years later, Han Gang remembers that in that era, the medicinal materials here were abundant and very famous. However, Han Gang only after eating the nourishing specialty in the name of money recalled the story that a friend who was born in Longxi and had a medicinal herb business at home boasted to him. If it hadn't been for this, he would have forgotten it altogether.

Han Gang reminded Wang Hou that he had a feeling of sudden realization: "Yukun wants to attract people with medicinal materials?" You can figure it out! He nodded violently, "That's right, there are quite a lot of astragalus in Shouyang Mountain." There are also a lot of licorice and bupleurum. In Guwei, medicinal herbs are the most produced in the Nazhi Linzhan Division. There is a salt well in his hand, and the gold, silver, jewelry, and silk silk on Zhang Xianger's concubines, how can they afford to buy them just by selling salt? ”

"Astragalus invigorates qi and nourishes the middle, invigorates the lungs and spleen, protects and sweats, can replenish Yuanyang, invigorate the body, treat strain injuries, and grow muscles." Wang Shao carried the effect of astragalus on his back. Fan Zhongyan has said that if you are not a good look, you are a good doctor. At this time, there are many doctors who know some medical skills, and Wang Shao is no exception, "But it would be better if there was an injury medicine to stop bleeding, Yukun, you seem to have said so when you came back from the sanatorium a few days ago, right?" ”

Han Gang nodded, he did say it. On the traditional Chinese medicine to stop bleeding, Han Gang only knew a three-seven in his previous life. Back then, he drank too much wine for socializing, and had some stomach problems, so he swallowed a lot of Yunnan Baiyao and Panax notoginseng powder. But now, he has not found the name of Panax notoginseng in the Materia Medica and the medical scriptures, and it is probably still growing in the deep mountains of Dali.

"Shu is famous for medicine and brocade, and the big pharmacists often have a net worth of hundreds of thousands, and nearly thirty percent of the world's medicines come from Shuzhong, and Zhang Xianger is also involved in medicinal materials, and can use gold and silver silk for his wife and concubine. The Qingtang Department occupies the most extensive area in Qingwei, and the declining Nazhi Linzhan Department can still make a windfall by relying on the only three remaining valleys and the nearby Shouyang Mountain, if the Qingtang Department turns out all the medicinal materials in the mountain, can Yu Longke go to the black with Guo Kui again? ”

"There are also a lot of green hemp in Shouyang Mountain, that is, it grows there in vain, and if it is harvested, ropes and cloths can also be begged for without pretense." Wang Hou runs around in Guwei in order to make a sand table on weekdays, and the geography is already clear, "Mulberry trees are not suitable for planting here, and only hemp can be planted in mulberry and hemp." ”

Green hemp is big. Hemp, but it grows big here. Hemp can only be woven hemp rope, and it can't make people drunk and dream. Han Gang has been trying to find the recipe for hemp boiling powder now. If there are qualified anesthetics, the safety of surgical procedures can be greatly improved, and the survival rate of the injured will also increase. Of course, the green linen commonly used for weaving is also good, which is a valuable strategic material.

"And cotton." Han Gang added: "After two years, there will be a large amount of cotton to grow. This time, let the merchant look for seeds, and there is also a cottonseed article. ”

"Gibeb is good. With cotton, there is Jibeibu. This kind of cloth is much more expensive than most medicinal materials...... Ah," Wang Hou seemed to suddenly remember, "Speaking of medicinal materials, in fact, there is also a blind luminous sand. There are many caves in the Bird and Mouse Mountain. ”

If Wang Hou didn't mention the latter sentence, Han Gang wouldn't be able to remember what the luminous sand was, but when he heard that it was produced in the cave in Bird and Mouse Mountain, the answer would be obvious, "What luminous sand is, it's bat dung!" This thing is said to be able to see clearly, but bats are blind in both eyes. Can a blind man's feces cure his eyes? ”

Wang Houqi said, "The bat is blind? Without a pair of sharp eyes, how can you not hit the wall in a cave? ”

"By the ear. You can go and catch a few bats and divide them into two teams. One team is blindfolded, and the other team plugs their ears with wax to see which team will hit the wall. ”

Seeing that Han Gang said something serious, Wang Shao was taken aback: "Yukun, you shouldn't have done this, right?!" ”

"The family teacher once said that everything must be empirically proven, but random speculation is unacceptable." Han Gang said with a smile, and then turned back to the original topic, "Ancient Weishan Chinese medicinal materials are everywhere and there are many types, this is a clear thing. However, when the medicinal herbs are dug from the mountain, it all depends on luck, and there is no wave. It is best to be able to grow by yourself, like Shudi, which has the most medicinal pesticide fields. Although this is not something that can be achieved in a few years, Yu Longke and Blind Medicine are both smart people with brains, and they will not fail to see the benefits. The Qingtang Department and the Nazhi Linzhan Department are both half-farming and half-herding, and they can also farm, and there is no shortage of land, and planting medicinal herbs is a huge profit, which is much more than the income from growing grain. ”

Han Gang said confidently: "If Gu Wei is a bottomless pit that needs to be filled with money and grain, there will still be people who will oppose the extension of the border after all." But if Gu Wei has a special product, attracts enough immigrants, and has an annual fiscal and tax income of more than 100,000 yuan, it is impossible for the imperial court to give up easily. ”

"Yu Longke is not a stupid person, what Guo Kui can give him, we can give him more." Han Gang said loudly, "That old fox should know what to do." ”

The official position is also empty, but the benefits that Han Gang brought to the Qingtang Department can be continued.

Wang Shao was convinced, and Han Gang's past exploits also gave him absolute trust in Han Gang's talent, "This will cost you a lot of money." ”

"Please reassure and rest assured, Han Gang will live up to his trust."

Han Gang clenched his fists and lowered his head, a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Wang Shao wants the dominance of the Fan Department, and Guo Kui also wants it, but in Han Gang's opinion, it is better to hold it in his own hands......
