Chen Liu's devastation and experience the looting of foreign tribes and the burning of Yuan Shu, and the entire appearance of Chen Liu is not even worth one-tenth of the original. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The black bricks and scorched tiles, the defeated city and broken walls, it seems that only 500 soldiers are needed to easily capture this city. Guo Jia had already arranged for the soldiers to transport the wounded and bury the dead in time to prevent the plague from breaking out again. And when he ordered his soldiers to clear many of the ruined houses, the whole of Chenliu was almost an empty city.

In this case, there will naturally be many people who complain, saying how miserable they are, but who is not the same miserable? But as long as Guo Jia ignores it, it will cause civil strife in the city, and a group of poor people will rob the rich merchants and scholars to make a living.

Guo Jia hasn't closed his eyes for almost two days, and the affairs of the past few days have been pressed in a heap, and it is almost impossible to clean up in a short time; There were also homeless people outside, and even one person died within minutes. Inside and out, Guo Jia really can't sleep well.

However, Xun Gang's sudden visit broke the chaos here. He brought thousands of craftsmen and a lot of relief grain and straw, and first built simple living facilities in the countryside outside the city, so that he could temporarily survive this crisis.

Xun Gang looked at the dilapidated Chen Liucheng, thinking that after this reconstruction, Yuzhou would inevitably suffer huge losses; This city wall alone, not to mention the appearance of more than a year to be built, the funds will definitely collapse.

However, Xun Gang's purpose in coming this time was not to focus on reconstruction, he wanted reform.

He set a new construction policy, the construction of the city was not entirely undertaken by the Yuzhou side, and there were many wealthy merchants in Chenliu and Yuzhou, and they needed to attract them to invest and spend money to build many public facilities, so as to make a profit from it.

The ancients had never heard of such a thing as investment, but businessmen were very shrewd, and they understood Xun Gang's meaning at once, and they were immediately overjoyed.

But on the other hand, and most importantly, they had never heard of a monarch who cared so much about commerce. In all dynasties and dynasties, who changed the law instead of emphasizing agriculture over business, and changed the law? What does Xun Gang think, he actually attaches importance to business?

If the residents who are resettled outside know this, won't it be a frying pan?

But this thing that made all the officials unbelievable made the businessmen on the side happy; Xun Gang and Xu Zhang, who accompanied him, couldn't keep their mouths shut with joy, and thanked Xun Gang for his mercy again and again. Not to mention that this plan has improved the status of businessmen, but also allowed them to get a lot of benefits.

In the past, all non-commercial facilities were managed by the government, and businessmen had no mixed capital. But everyone knows that businessmen have money, so why not if they can get their money? Xun Gang made an exception for businessmen to invest, which is not only a huge breakthrough, but also will make the development of a city more rapid!

Since businessmen invest in their interests, they will naturally take care of it more, and it will also allow them to invest more money for more benefits, and at the same time increase employment, which is of great significance for the future development of Xinchen.

Xun Gang even issued a slogan for this purpose: "Take economic construction as the central task and vigorously develop the productive forces ......"

The economy controls the workers, peasants, soldiers, and merchants, and with the economy, all other industries can develop at the same time, which is the reason Xun Gang used to persuade everyone. But what Xun Gang never expected was that his series of remarks were opposed by all the officials under him, especially Xun Yu and Guo Jia!

Xun Gang looked at everyone in surprise and asked in surprise: "This is to promote Chen Liu's great cause of development for thousands of years, why don't you comply?" ”

Xun Yu immediately refuted: "And today's chaos, businessmen take advantage of this to make a lot of money in the troubled world, it's really hateful!" How can the lord encourage them to be arrogant, and even let them participate in the asset management of our governor's house? This is not a good move! ”

Guo Jia usually hates traders the most, and agrees with Xun Yu's point of view: "Lord, businessmen can only wear sackcloth and live in a small house because of the thousands of gold they earn by cheating. This has been true since ancient times! The lord is now handing over all the newly built facilities in Chenliu to the businessmen, wouldn't it be in line with their wishes and put the displaced people in danger in Chenliu? ”

Guo Jia's so-called danger is to be harmed by these arrogant businessmen who have obtained the sword of Shang Fang; This is not an isolated case, so it must be taken as a warning.

Xun Gang saw that his two closest staff officers were so opposed to him, and then he realized the difficulty of reform. The ancients thought and traditional, and it was impossible to accept the so-called reform in one go, and even when the Shang monarch changed the law, he also needed to establish his own authority of faith.

It's easy to build prestige, but it's hard to change the traditional thinking of an ancient.

"How can a merchant be corrupted for the sake of his profit? Fan Lishang retired to business, spreading good names and charity; Zigong is one of the ten philosophers of Confucius, but he is also from Shangfu; Lu Buwei dedicated Zhao Ji and eventually became a famous appearance, why is he evil? ”

How do you know that Xun Yu has intensified: "The Yellow Emperor has been passed down for 3,000 years, but there are only a handful of virtuous businessmen, isn't it worrying?" Tao Zhu is virtuous and respectful; Zigong Shi Zhongni is a model trader; Not to mention that Lu Buwei is a person with excellent vision, who can match it? Nowadays, there are many people in the world such as Xu Zhang who make refugees, such as Zigong Tao Zhu and other virtuous businessmen! ”

In a word, Xun Gang was speechless; I have already listed the number of sages and quotients of the past dynasties, but I didn't expect Xun Yu to refute it instead!

Wheel eloquence, I really can't say this guy.

was told by these two guys, Xun Gang could only shout: "If you always follow the rules, you don't care about following the ancients!" You don't even dare to try, how can you open up the future? ”

Xun Gang could only take the test to win Xun Yu's consent.

Xun Yu and the others still refused, but who knew that Xun Gang even threatened with his life, and it seemed that he was determined to win this matter.

Xun Yu was quite rare to see Xun Gang play this kind of helplessness, thinking that it was just an experimental site, and the harm was not great...... And putting aside the identity of businessmen, borrowing their assets to develop the city is actually a very novel decision.

"Well, just follow the words of the lord......"

Xun Gang's initial request seemed simple, asking Xu Zhang to gather all the wealthy merchants of Chen Liuguo in Chenliu, and selected many business projects, including schools, crafts, buildings, and even agriculture, to be outsourced to merchants. After the merchants make a profit, they extract the tax from it and hand it over to the government.

It's not a win-win approach, it's a win-win-win. The governors and merchants made money, and the exiles also had jobs; Moreover, these shops are directly subordinate to Xun Gang, and there will be many supervisors. It can avoid the situation of businessmen seeking personal gain as much as possible, and it will not make the peasants and workers who originally stood on the heads of businessmen feel resentful.

Moreover, this novel method will inevitably attract a large number of foreign populations, which will be of great benefit to the revival of Chenliu.

After the arrangements were made, Xun Gang set his sights on the refugees in the suburbs; For many princes, these refugees were like a dog's skin plaster, which could not be shaken off, which made people feel troublesome. But in Xun Gang's hands, these people are good test subjects.

Nowadays, there are very few inhabitants who have property, and if you want to exchange something, there will inevitably be an unequal distribution; Therefore, Xun Gang confiscated all the disposable property of those people and exchanged it for a paper note with the characteristics of registration number data.

But when their possessions have become a piece of paper, will those people give up? I almost had a falling out!

However, Xun Gang admonished more, and each refugee handed out a paper note with a face value of 1,000, and said that this was the medium of exchange in Chenliu in the future, and this could be exchanged for real money in some designated shops, of course, after the establishment of Chenliu New Town. Before that, everyone had to exchange the banknotes drawn by Xun Gang for supplies; If you want to earn banknotes, you can take part in the reconstruction of the city, or you can just work with the merchants just now, and the banknotes will be distributed as if they were wages.

This is a strange thing, exchanging paper for supplies, they dared to think before? And even now, paper is a rarity!

But this kind of rarity is nothing to Xun Gang and wealthy businessmen, and Xun Gang knows that the future papermaking method is extremely simple, is it possible to reduce the cost of paper?

Jiaozi was born in the Southern Song Dynasty, and there are different historical opinions; But at least now it seems that the first banknote in history was born in the late Eastern Han Dynasty!

This method not only stabilized the people's hearts, but also reduced the chaos of the refugees, and even political talents such as Xun Yu had to admire Xun Gang. And instead of five baht coins made of paper, he really couldn't figure it out!

Everything inside and outside Chen Liucheng was arranged, and the reform that Xun Gang wanted was gradually unfolding, and it would take a certain amount of time to get the corresponding results.

In that case, it's time for other things to deal with......

Guo Jia found a gap, introduced Liang Xi to Xun Gang, and said: "My lord, this attack on Chen Liu, it was this Chen Jun who ordered Liang Xi to come up with a plan, so that I and others contacted Yu Fuluo of the Southern Xiongnu to defeat Yuan Shu, which reduced the losses of our army. ”

Liang Xi saluted slightly: "Liang Ziyu has seen the lord!" ”

Xun Gang nodded: "The credit is not small, but I hope ...... In the future, try to use as little force as possible with the Hu people, after all, they have no faith, who knows if they will stab you at any time? ”

Liang Xi was silent, in fact, he didn't agree with Xun Gang's opinion, and in his heart, Hu Han could get along peacefully. It's just that because of Xun Gang's feelings, he doesn't want to say it.

Xun Gang happened to appoint Liang Xi as Chen Liu's Taishou and let him supervise all Chen Liu's affairs; You must know that this person is not simple, in the future, he will serve as the governor of the state and county in the Wei State, and his merits are often the first in the country! It's best to let him be the new Chen and stay too guarded.

Liang Xi thanked him, but said again: "Lord, Yu Furotto brought a message to the lord......"

Hearing the name of the Southern Xiongnu, Xun Gang felt extremely uncomfortable, and he Yu Fu Luo Ke was one of the Chaohua Hu people - the grandfather of Liu Yuan, the founder of Han Zhao! Xun Gang had long been determined to eradicate the Hu people, how could he have a good impression of this person in his heart?

Now he still has something to give to himself, it must not be a good thing!

"What did he ask you to bring?"

Liang Xi was a little worried: "He hopes to be able to rely on the lord and have a foothold in Yuzhou......"
