Chapter 97: Everything is ready
The establishment of Fujian County is a major event for Huiji County and even Yangzhou.
Chen Wen petitioned the imperial court for the establishment of Fujian County, and the actual positions of Xiao Yao and Chen Cong could only be regarded as agents before the imperial court approved it. It is not legitimate.
The problem is that the newly carved Fujian County, surrounded by mountains, has no way to farm, and for example, several new counties such as Lishui County and Longyuan County reported below have no concept at all.
The so-called county guard has no oil and water at all, not to mention that he has to serve as an official in a place where spirit beasts and monsters are infested, unless his brain is in water, who will want this county guard position?
Liu Ting received the news and was interested in this Fujian county, but he looked around and there was no one who was willing to go. In an instant, he even had the idea of being abandoned by the family, and in the end he could only approve Chen Wen, or Li Ming's request.
A month later, around the Qingming Dynasty in 191 AD, the imperial court sent people to send the official seals and official robes of the county guards and officials directly under the central government to Li Ming, and then went back to restore his life, obviously not planning to continue south. The point of handing things over to Li Ming seems to have the meaning of letting Li Ming take care of Fujian County.
"Liu Ting's discord plan!" Seeing this, Guo Jia said, "Skipping Chen Wen to give it to us like this, I'm afraid Chen Wen won't feel very comfortable, right?" ”
"I understand the discord plan, shouldn't I send things to Chen Wen, so that it can provoke more trouble?" Li Ming couldn't figure it out.
"Generally speaking, it's just that Chen Wen is weak by nature, and if he gives things to him, I'm afraid that he will hand them over to us. It's just that he wants to save face as a celebrity, and sending things to us is equivalent to not taking him seriously, Chen Wen has a thorn in his heart. If someone provokes it at this time, I am afraid that they will find a way to find us unlucky. Guo Jia sighed.
"Chen Wen's thorn envoy won't last long, he is not in good health, and he is afraid that he will not be able to survive these two years. Such an existence, if he doesn't prepare for the future, he will still make trouble for us, he is not so stupid. Li Ming shook his head.
According to Jia Xu, Chen Wen had a serious illness some time ago, and although he recovered, his health was not as good as before. The person has aged a lot, and according to the doctor who helped him diagnose his pulse, I am afraid that it will only be these two years.
"If that's the case, then Chang'an really made a mistake." Xun Biao nodded.
There is Li Ru's testimony, and they already know that Liu Ting's position is not right, but in fact, no one here recognizes him as an emperor. At least Xun Biao and Xun Di value this brother-in-law more, while Xun Chen remains neutral.
Now Xun Biao describes Liu Ting as 'the one in Chang'an', and he knows the samadhi.
On the side of Fujian County, Li Ming took Zhang Ying as the county governor, Yu Mi and Peng Hu as his deputies, Wei Chong (a subsidiary of the Wei clan of Huiji) as the logistics officer, and Bai Zi (a son of the Bai clan, Bai Xin's brother) as the military adviser to guard Fujian County to guard against the recurrence of the remnants of South Vietnam.
Yes, Peng Hu has already entered the military service. Fujian County is already the main living area of the Peng family, excluding Dongzhi County and Yongning County, the county orders of several counties are from the Peng family in Wuyi Mountain, and only the county is the son of Li Ming's poor family.
However, at present, there is no one in a high position, Peng Die's identity problem, he can't directly interfere in politics, he needs to find a way to quickly get into the position, so it is natural for Peng Hu to enlist in the army.
The resume is almost there, the key is that there is no culture, and he is arranged to hone for a period of time under Zhang Ying, with the study of Chinese characters and the art of war.
Pang De and the others, who were originally stationed in Longyuan, also retreated, anyway, there are guerrillas who can be dispatched at any time, and Huang Zhongbu should also be used in more useful places. In fact, many people think that the people of Nanyue will not come to Huiji County again.
Two months later, the second batch of peanuts began to be sown, and the first batch had already obtained a bumper harvest after Zhang Mo's patient exploration. This kind of fruit is actually an underground crop, which makes Zhang Mo also amazed.
Li Ming didn't leave many peanuts, almost all of them were planted, leaving three catties to dry, put them in a wok and stir-fry, add some salt, and finally prepared a pot of wine to entertain a few henchmen to eat, but it was gone in less than ten minutes.
Zhang Mo and other generals also ate a delicious meal, only Guo Jia, Xun Biao, Zhang Zhao and Gu Yan realized its value. After all, they didn't see Li Ming oiling from beginning to end, but they were eating oily. Fools understand that this thing is rich in oil, and it is an oil crop.
In the era of oil shortage, this thing is a treasure. Gu Yan immediately hoped that it could be popularized throughout the territory, and Guo Jia and others also meant the same.
"Ahem......" Li Ming coughed lightly, "I didn't just call everyone here to taste this new crop, of course, I also hope that you can promote it, this thing will change our eating habits a lot in the future." ”
"It must be ......" The ministers responded one after another, good things are indeed worth promoting, especially when the grain is in Huiji County and Wu County, and it is slowly worthless.
"The key now is that the trade road from Da Mo to Nanchang has been expanded to accommodate four horses in parallel. The Huiji Chamber of Commerce has stabilized the trade route to Yuzhang County and even Changsha County.
However, Huaxin's management of the counties below is too weak, so that the local tyrants set up cards to openly collect taxes, not to mention that bandits and chambers of commerce are everywhere.
We have already submitted our opinions to Hua Xin, but the result has not been resolved. The Chamber of Commerce is not a chamber of commerce for me alone, Hua Xin is like this, which is equivalent to slapping us in the face! Li Ming said slowly.
After deducting the existence of the earliest shareholders of the Auditor's Association, today's trade profits, senior officials receive a dividend every three months according to their status. This was expensive, but it also pulled everyone into the chariot.
At least in this matter, as soon as Li Ming said it, everyone immediately became indignant.
"The Auditor's Chamber of Commerce is an important source of tax revenue for the county, in order to ensure that the interests of the county are not harmed. It is also to give an explanation to the people who come to Huiji County and Wu County to do business. Since Yuzhang is too guarded, let's take care of this matter! Since they let the bandits plunder the place, we will help them suppress the bandits! Li Ming finally said his intentions.
The military attachés were naturally rejoicing, but the civilian officials hesitated. Is it easy to teach people the power of this cross-border war?
"Know what you're worried about!" Li Ming looked at the civil official's side, in fact, it was mainly Wei Teng and Gu Yan, they were not Li Ming's lineage, and they didn't know his arrangement.
After a pause, he continued: "As long as Hua Xin personally invites us to come over to help!" Whether it's before or after! ”
"Your Excellency is wise!" Everyone replied one after another, Gu Yan and Wei Teng looked at each other and smiled, and they also responded. The two of them figured it out, Li Ming had discussed it with everyone early in the morning, but he didn't tell them.
Not only them, but also the Zhu family and the Lu family don't know either. If the family is excluded from the circle of power, then it is not far from declining.
After the two left, they returned to the mansion and called the people of the Lu family and the Zhu family to discuss how to deal with the relationship with Li Ming. They didn't know that the conversation that night, an hour later, was sent to Jia Xu through the secret guard, and half an hour later, it came to Li Ming.
