Chapter 434: The Great Commander of the Frontier

After Fu Bi finished saying the words of Baoju Wang Ning'an, when he saw Zhao Zhen mention the matter of governing Youzhou, he saluted and said goodbye, and when he turned around, Fu Bi suddenly felt that his eyes were black, his steps staggered, and he almost fainted. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The first generation of fame was almost lost, and the rich minister was angry and aggrieved at this time, but he was very helpless, and everyone had to kneel on the opponent of Wang Ning'an! It's just that he knelt early!

In fact, it is only a finger count, Xia Zhu, Chen Zhizhong, Wen Yanbo, Pang Ji, Wang Yaochen...... There are too many ministers who have fallen in the hands of Wang Ningan, he is not the first, and of course he will not be the last.

The civil official group, even in the past two thousand years, the most powerful opponent of the Confucian literati has appeared, I hope that the heavens can descend talents and abolish Wang Ning'an, otherwise, this son will inevitably break the inheritance of my Confucian Taoism!

……

Wang Ningan didn't know that Fu Bi had lifted him to a dazzling height, in fact, Wang Ningan was still a little confused, according to Zhao Zhen's habits, he would not easily abolish a mature prime minister.

After all, the court situation is complicated, and a little action may break the balance game, and no one knows where it will slide when the time comes. But Zhao Zhen dismissed Fu Bi without even saying a word of retention, which is really a strange thing.

Wang Ningan couldn't figure it out, but Zhao Zhen didn't give him time to figure it out, so he couldn't wait to ask: "Wang Qing, how are you going to govern Youzhou, take out all your strategies, I want to listen carefully!" ”

Wang Ningan had no choice but to share his ideas.

Wang Ningan believed that it was necessary to base itself on Youzhou's financial and material resources, and not to turn the expansion of territory into a burden on the imperial court.

When this tune was proposed, it was very popular with Zhao Zhen.

Wang Ning'an believes that Youzhou has two major wealth, one is the numerous pastures, and the other is the coastal salt farms.

When Zhao Zhen was just in power, the salt law of the Great Song Dynasty was still produced by the imperial court and sold by the imperial court, and merchants were not allowed to interfere, but the cost of government operation was too high, which became a major problem.

Later, the imperial court began to sell salt, allowing merchants to produce and sell salt.

At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, the salt tax was basically 10 million guan, and by the time of Zhao Zhen, it had exceeded 15 million, and in a few decades, when Cai Jing was in the country, it could even reach 40 million guan per year, accounting for three or four percent of the imperial court's annual income, which was very terrifying!

1 million acres of salt drying field was opened up in Changlu.

After being divided into a number of areas, public bidding is held once every three years, and the highest bidder is given the right to operate a salt pan for three years.

Since Yantian is a long-term and stable income, based on the salt tax, it can raise at least 50 million yuan of capital from the society.

Among this money, 30 million yuan was taken out to repair the Great Wall, and 20 million yuan was used to expand Youzhou and turn Youzhou into a pearl in the north.

Youzhou has pastures and can develop wool spinning, which is another cash cow.

If you look closely at the map, you will find that in fact, the location of Pingxian County is a bit southerly, and Luanzhou is just the center of Bohai Bay. Tianjin was when Zhu Di went south to seize the throne, and after passing through, he got the name, so it also became the only city in the country that knew the exact time of the construction of the city.

At this time, even the Ming Dynasty was not established, let alone Tianjin.

Wang Ning'an planned to build a large port, and then transfer some of the industries in Pingxian County to Youzhou.

As mentioned earlier, the location of Pingxian County is not good, and the development has reached the present, and there has been a bottleneck. Wang Ningan is ready to transfer whaling, building materials, furniture, winemaking, oil extraction, textiles, and ready-to-wear to Youzhou and other places.

As for Pingxian, Wang Ningan only wants to keep three things.

Ordnance, the school, and money bank.

In the First World War of Hebei, Pingxian ordnance has become famous all over the world, and Zhao Zhen designated that the forbidden army will be purchased from Pingxian in the future.

Wang Ningan conservatively estimated that the military industry alone could absorb more than 100,000 craftsmen.

According to the ratio of three to one, the industrial population is one, and the other service industries are three, which is just enough to digest the population of three or four hundred thousand in Ping County!

When the industry moves over, the land price in Youzhou is bound to rise, and you can make a lot of money by holding the land.

"Your Majesty, the minister hopes that the imperial court can temporarily give Youzhou tax exemption for five years, and can provide a subsidy of 3 million yuan per year, and give some preferential treatment to encourage immigration. Five years later, the minister was sure to build a golden Great Wall and build a metropolis that surpassed Bianjing! “

After listening to Wang Ningan's various ideas, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but slap his face.

"Good! It's good, indeed. Wang Qing has a plan, Tao is over, and I will hand over Youzhou to you, and I will rest assured. You just have to let it go, and if you have any difficulties, I will help you solve them! Don't be afraid of discussions, don't be afraid of floating rumors, I am not suspicious of employing people, and Wang Qing must live up to my trust! ”

……

Zhao Zhen's words are sincere, at least among the emperors of the past and present, he is very kind.

But this conversation, not only was it sincere, but it also had a feeling of digging out his heart and lungs, and Wang Ningan was more and more flattered, because he had some good luck.

When Wang Ningan went back, his head was dizzy, he suddenly remembered Zhao Zongjing, and hurriedly asked people to invite the little prince over.

When they first met, Zhao Zongjing was punched twice, and his eyes were still black!

Facing Wang Ning'an, Zhao Xiaowang was angry!

"Wang Xiaoer! I have never met you so lacking in morality, along the way, I have said all the good things to you, praising you for your good governance, praising the peace of the place, living and working in peace and contentment, for you, I almost fought with Fu Bi. It's good for you to give me two fists when you meet, you say, are you worthy of your friends? ”

Wang Ningan hurriedly smiled, waved his hand, and asked people to bring up a set of luminous cups, which were given to Chongyuan by merchants in the Western Regions, Yelu Chongyuan was completely tamed by Wang Ning'an, he didn't pay less filial piety to good things for his small life, and Wang Ning'an couldn't accept them all, so he left a few sets of cups.

He poured a cup for Zhao Xiaowangye, and filled it himself.

"Don't say anything, it's all in the wine!"

poured three glasses of wine in a row, but in fact, Zhao Zongjing was not really angry.

Thinking about it afterwards, in case there were too many Liao soldiers who entered the Kou, and even Zhao Zhen was injured a little, the first person to cut off his head was not Wang Ning'an, but his Zhao Xiaowangye!

After figuring it out, Zhao Zongjing was not so angry, so he talked endlessly, and mentioned to Wang Ningan what Fu Bi had done and said these days......

After listening, Wang Ningan was also dumbfounded, thinking that the old guy had changed his sex, it turned out that he had done the end, and if he knew this, Lao Tzu should have given him two fists! Let Fu Bi know why the flowers are so red!

Speaking of which, the rich minister is also unlucky enough.

He boasted of a peaceful and prosperous world, but Zhao Zhen suddenly made a private visit and was exposed, and Fu Bi had to say that he had suffered a military disaster, which was already very good.

But when he arrived in Jizhou, the people's livelihood under Wang Ning'an was very good, and Fu Bi was slapped in the face, so he could only say that Wang Ningan didn't pay attention to scholars, and he couldn't last long just knowing that he was trying to win over the ordinary poor sticks.

But in a blink of an eye, they encountered the invasion of Liaokou, and it was these poor people, relying on simple weapons, who repelled the Liao soldiers in a daze, which made Zhao Zhen breathtaking.

At this time, what else could Fu Bi say, he could only give a guarantee to the Danzhou side, saying that the gentry were as reliable.

Who would have thought that the Liao State was fully subordinate, and Danzhou also sent people and horses, but some gentry took the lead in the rebellion, making the rich minister a disgraced face, and his mouth was swollen.

By this time, Fu Bi had almost lost, and this one was indeed angry, so he could only continue to shirk his responsibility, saying that it was because of Wang Ning'an, who made the scholars deviate from morality, and I don't know if the court really treated them, so they rebelled, and one Xiong Dun could not represent all scholars.

Most of the gentry in Youzhou are still good, as long as time passes, they will definitely be dead set on the imperial court.

Fu Bi is a lotus flower with a tongue, and he is the truth, but Zhao Zhen doesn't see it that way, things are clearly laid out, and it is useless to let you speak like a spring.

Fu Bi didn't want to convince Zhao Zhen, he felt that as long as he could pass the test smoothly, it would be fine.

It's just that he never imagined that Wang Ningan rushed to get the news and asked about the matter in Danzhou, and Wang Ningan actually took the initiative to ask for the blame and took the responsibility on himself.

This is the pit to death!

If Wang Ningan took the opportunity to attack Fu Bi and said that his strategy was wrong, at most, Fu Xianggong would stand up and fight a lawsuit with Wang Ningan.

It's a shame, but Fu Bi doesn't care anymore, and he's sure that most civil officials will be on his side!

But the problem is that Wang Ningan didn't say a bad word about him!

In comparison, he has been attacking Wang Ningan and shirking responsibility.

The whole thing has changed!

In the past, they were a battle of strategy, and it had nothing to do with right or wrong, they just didn't use it or not, and at most they questioned Fu Bi's talent.

But now!

One has the courage to do things, can bear the responsibility, has shoulders, and has responsibility, and the other has caused a big disaster, does not know how to repent, blindly shirks responsibility, and frames others......

This time, it's good, from talent to character!

You have a problem with being a rich man!

You don't have enough mind!

Unworthy to be the Prime Minister of the Empire!

It doesn't matter if the talents of the past generations of scholars are almost, the key is to have a passable character. For example, Wen Tianxiang, who is admired by people, is not very good at fighting, but it does not prevent him from leaving his name in history. There is also Hai Rui, the representative of the Qing official, who is nitpicky and extreme, but he is honest and consistent, so he has become a representative of the scholars.

On the contrary, he has done a lot of good things for the benefit of the country and the people, but he has been scolded for being indecent just because of bad conduct and corruption and perversion of the law, and there are countless examples of this.

Confucian scholars, character is the root of life, and whether there is talent or not is not so important.

If the character is good, the blood is thick and fearless, and if the character is poor, the congenital deficiency is controlled by others everywhere.

In the face of the scene at that time, if Fu Bi did not take the initiative to protect Wang Ningan and did not ask for the prime minister, he might really be ruined forever and never be able to turn over, of course, his situation is not much better now, Zhao Zhen completely looked down on Fu Bi.

didn't even keep it, and the rich minister left Youzhou in a gray way.

On the second day of Fu Bi's departure, Wang Ning'an officially added the title of young master, and the same Zhongshu Men Pingzhang Affairs, knew the affairs of Youzhou Mansion, and pacified the Yanyun East Road Jingluo.

A large number of glittering and dazzling official positions all show one thing, Wang Ningan has become a real feudal official, in charge of the seven states of Shannan after the recovery.

Wang Erlang, are you ready?
