Chapter 249: Killing a group of monkeys
Let a group of Qiu Baguan Tuntian, Yu Jing and Su Xun were a little skeptical, but according to Wang Ning'an's successful history in the past, they still decided to believe him and give it a try. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Just experimenting, they found something unusual.
First of all, what is Lingnan?
Since the founding of the Northern Song Dynasty, what criminals, corrupt officials and corrupt officials, in short, a bunch of scum, all of them have been sent. After 100 years of living and reproducing, to put it mildly, this place has become a concentration camp for scum.
You can't suppress the scene at all if you send a kind official, and the same is true at the local level, just looking for good people, who will do things for you? Not to mention anything else, the local gentry and landlords, and many ship bosses with a large group of sailors in their hands, this is the captain of the times, with maritime merchants written in front and pirates written in the back, all of them are outlaws and ruthless stubble.
Trying to open a wedge between them, without two brushes, that's absolutely not a no-go.
The men in this group of soldiers were born with a bad spirit, they simply did not get close to anyone, and all evils retreated, and soon completed the encirclement of land, and one by one the manors began to take shape.
The next step is to distribute the population, and the hundreds of thousands of people plundered by Nong Zhigao, except for a small number of Han Chinese, the rest are clansmen around Guangyuan.
At this time, there was no national concept at all, and whoever used it conveniently would use whomever it was. In order to compete with the Great Song Dynasty, Nong Zhigao urgently needed more military spending, but the result was that he offended the local Wei, Huang, and Wednesday surnames in Guangyuan.
It's just that he failed, but these hundreds of thousands of people can't help but deal with it, and if they continue to dig gold mines, it is difficult to guarantee that no one will encourage them to make trouble.
Therefore, Wang Ningan decisively ordered them to be arranged into the farm.
Each tuntian farm has about two or three hundred people, which is different from the previous landlords and tenants. Tuntian Farms were commercialized, and the rice and sugar they produced were to be shipped to the north for sale, while Pingxian County was to deliver daily necessities and agricultural tools.
In this way, each soldier earned not a fixed rent, but a floating currency, which was sold for a hundred, ten for ten, one hundred and fifty, and fifteen.
In short, the relationship between soldiers and ordinary peasant households is no longer antagonistic, but on the contrary, there is a community of interests.
This concept was repeatedly emphasized by Wang Ning'an, and he even ordered to invite several business school lecturers from the Six Arts School to explain the new concept to them.
The soldiers were required to treat the tenant farmers as their own subordinates, as brothers who fought with them, and shared blessings and hardships. Don't always think about squeezing benefits out of them, think about earning more benefits for them, so that you can get more.
ā¦ā¦
Wang Ning'an also made such an arrangement, hoping that these tuntian farms could impact the tenancy system that had existed for one or two thousand years, and tear a hole in Lingnan, which was the weakest and most open.
After dealing with these people, the remaining troubles are the gold mines left by Nong Zhigao, and the remnants of the 100,000 mountains.
Di Qing was very worried, it was true that the Western Army was very powerful, but it was too difficult to enter the mountains, and the locals who were as nimble as monkeys were playing hide and seek.
But you can't ignore it, at the moment Nong Zhigao's life and death are uncertain, in the middle of these few months, there are three places where Nong Zhigao is alive, regathering people, and fighting with the Great Song Dynasty.
As a result, troops were sent over to see that they were all fake.
But even so, I was scared into a cold sweat.
"If you want me to say, this thing is not difficult to do, we are not good at it, someone is good at it, just leave it to them."
After working with Wang Ning'an for a few days, Di Qing's brain also became flexible, and he smiled: "What Erlang said is using the locals to raze and raze?" ā
Wang Ningan nodded.
Di Qing hesitated a little, "Erlang, these locals are not easy to deal with, they are all very cunning, I have sent invitations to the Wei, Huang, and Zhou families, hoping that they will come to Yongzhou to discuss the matter of annexation, but all three of them refused." It's not good to kill, it's not good to let it go, I'm worried! ā
"Hahaha, Dashuai, you're still too honest." Wang Ningan said with a smile: "These people are all masters who don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles, and if you want to transfer them with an order, that's." ā
Di Qing's eyes lit up, "So Erlang has an idea?" ā
"I don't dare to say that there is, we might as well throw the gold mine out as a bait, so that there will be no big fish on the bait."
What is Wang Ningan's calculation?
He asked the three families to inform them that Wang Shi was going to withdraw, and the gold mine in Guangyuan was still left to the locals, and as long as they paid 300 taels of gold to the imperial court every year, they could have the right to mine the gold mine and continue to keep the gold mine.
Moreover, whoever owns the gold mine and pays the gold will have the right to trade with the Great Song Dynasty, and can purchase various materials of the Great Song Dynasty at preferential prices.
I have to say that as the largest economy in the world, the commercial and trade advantages of the Great Song Dynasty are simply overwhelming, and even the Liao State can't resist it, let alone a few local leaders.
When the news came, they ran to Yongzhou.
After some tense competition, the Wei family, the second largest family after the Nong family, finally got the mining rights and could trade with the Great Song Dynasty.
The Wei family was excited, and sent 300 taels of gold to the government the next day, for fear that the Great Song Dynasty would regret it.
"Can they not be happy, Guangyuan's gold mine, if it is fully mined, it will have seven or eight hundred taels a year, and it can even reach one thousand taels, and if it is handed over to the Great Song Dynasty for 300 taels, they can still make seventy percent of the profits, plus trade with the Great Song Dynasty, it won't be long before it is another Nong Zhigao!"
Zhao Zongjing sighed and said, Wang Ningan put down the palm-sized abalone in his hand, and laughed, "It's rare, Zhao Xiaowangye, who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, is actually smart?" ā
"I'm not stupid, yes, you're too deceitful!" Zhao Zongjing said curiously: "I said Erlang, are you hiding something to deal with the Wei family." Otherwise, wouldn't you watch them grow bigger! ā
Wang Ningan laughed, "You are getting smarter and smarter now, little prince, you said that the Wei family wants to trade with the Great Song Dynasty, what do they need?" ā
"Need money!"
Wang Ningan smiled and said: "That's right, the Great Song Dynasty does not circulate gold, and if he wants to trade, he must first exchange gold for copper coins." ā
Zhao Zongjing was taken aback, "Erlang, you don't want to lower the price of gold and make a lot of money, right?" ā
"What do you think!" Wang Ningan blamed: "Am I that kind of person, not only did I not lower the price of gold, but also mentioned two percent, how about it, am I a kind person?" ā
"No, no, no......" Zhao Zongjing learned the virtues of this guy Wang Ning'an, the more he treats you, the more secret mysteries he hides, let me think about it, what kind of calculation is he?
If the price of gold is raised, the Wei family will definitely hold the gold in their hands and exchange it for more copper coins, and the copper coins they exchange will buy the materials of the Great Song Dynasty, but in this way, will it cause the outflow of copper coins?
This is what the Great Song officialdom is most worried about...... How could Wang Ningan make such a mistake, so what kind of calculation did he make?
Zhao Zongjing pondered and meditated, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
"I see, it's the deposit with interest! You are going to use the money village to attract the copper coins back, so that the gold in the Wei family's hands is gone, and the copper coins are gone, only the numbers in the money village are left! ā
Zhao Zongjing stroked his palms and laughed, pointing at Wang Ning'an's head, "Bad, too bad!" ā
Wang Ningan sneered: "Where is wrong with me, as long as the Wei family doesn't want to rebel against the Great Song Dynasty, the money he has in the money can naturally be used, if he has a different heart, he deserves to be confiscated, right?" ā
Zhao Zongjing shook his head, "Everything you say is right, I'll ask you one thing, how much gold can you get every year?" ā
ā¦ā¦
In fact, Zhao Zongjing has not fully seen through Wang Ning'an's calculations, first of all, because the Great Song Dynasty does not circulate gold, so the exchange of gold must go to the government, but the government does not care about trade, and business must be done through money and commercial houses.
This produced a result, if the Wei family wanted to buy the things of the Great Song Dynasty, they had to pay gold, and the Great Song Dynasty only needed to use copper coins to buy local products.
Someone wants to ask, can't the Wei family also pay with copper coins? That's right, but don't forget, there is a 20% premium for exchanging gold for copper coins.
Driven by interests, it is self-evident how to choose!
According to Wang Ning'an's estimate, most of the Wei family's gold will flow into the hands of the Great Song Dynasty, and with other means, it is not difficult to earn 1,000 taels a year.
"You can take this gold and go to please your uncle!"
Wang Ningan patted Zhao Zongjing's shoulder and walked out with a smile.
As soon as he came out, he saw a war horse galloping by, running out quite a distance, the horse came back in a circle, and a knight jumped down from it, it was Li Wujian.
"My subordinates meet your lordship."
"Don't make so much hypocrisy, what's going on?"
Li Wujian smiled, "I can't hide anything from my lord, we just had a fight." ā
"Oh? Is it the remnants of Nong Chi Ko? ā
"No, it's a bunch of monkeys!"
Wang Ningan glared at him, "You make me happy, the monkey is worth fighting?" ā
Li Wujian hurriedly said: "Don't get me wrong, adults, it's a group of guys about the size of monkeys." He said and compared his waist, and he was about there.
Wang Ningan snorted, "Take me to see." ā
Out of Yongzhou, Wang Ningan ran wildly all the way, running all over the sweat, and at dusk, he finally arrived at a messy battlefield, and his father Wang Liangjing held the horse lance, stood on the spot, and was directing the cleaning of the corpse.
Good guys, enough for two or three thousand, they are all piled up into a small mountain, and when you look closely, you really don't want to say, everyone is not tall, like a half-grown child, with a dark face, prominent cheekbones, a large chin, but a very flat head, and it really looks like a monkey.
"Dad, what's going on? Where did they come from? ā
Wang Liangjing strode over and explained: "We received a report from the natives that a group of people were looting and killing in their village, so I came with my soldiers. After killing for a while, almost all of them stayed. A couple of captives have just been interrogated, and they have come from Cochin. It seems that he wants to take advantage of the fire to rob, and he doesn't look at what he is, he is simply looking for death! ā
