Chapter 119: Changing Heavens
Daizhou City also calmed down, and the two sides of the contest divided the winners and losers, and the military attaches overwhelmed the civilian officials this time, and one Sakha was enough. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Hu Yaowu was demoted and returned to Beijing to ask for the crime, as for Zhao Xun, he was not what he was at the beginning, he walked out of the prison, full of white hair, and his face was vicissitudes.
Because of favoritism, persecution of Zhongliang and other crimes, although he did not cut off his head, but this Zhao Xun is also a living crime, and the whole family was convicted of being confiscated, but I am afraid that I will not be able to go to the ground.
Wu Yi had no sympathy, this matter was originally unfair, and his punishment was to deduct one year's salary.
Hou Dacheng benefited a lot this time, but became a model in the army, and directly took over the position of the original commander.
"Congratulations." Wu Yi saw Hou Dacheng who was limping, and he also congratulated him with his fists.
Hou Dacheng is still young, but he knows who is contributing this time, and he doesn't know what to do yet, so he directly expressed his determination and obeyed Wuyi's arrangement.
Wu Yi helped him up, which was regarded as a tacit acquiescence, and then in Daizhou City, everyone spread that Wu Dalang was terrible, and in the future, the people of Zhenxiwei committed crimes, and only the officials of Zhenxiwei could be punished.
But when questioned Wuyi, he naturally wouldn't admit it, but Zhenxiwei's side had already made good paper from the original Sun family's paper, and was ready to re-register the people under Zhenxiwei's rule.
Wu Yi was going to leave, and the rest of the mess was naturally cleaned up, but the merchants all came up, Chang Xing's old face was flushed, and now he was proud of the spring breeze, and Hou Dacheng, who was his nephew and son-in-law, was promoted, and his wishes came true, and he wanted to seize the big tree of Wuyi.
"Since you're here, it's okay, come in, I just have something to say." Wu Yi saw that the original merchants had all come here, and he also said his recent thoughts.
It's still money and food, Ningwu Mansion is an empty shell, and he has a headache in many places, and he has long thought of merchants.
"Da Lang, it's all a matter of your words." Now that the merchants are convinced by Wu Dalang, the government and the opposition are shocked by him, but nothing happens, and they naturally obey.
Wuyi doesn't have a good way, that is, he has a lot of salt in his hand, so he can only fight this idea, since the imperial court gave it, he wants to do more, Ningwu Mansion is a military town, and it can't compare to other places, so if you want to do things, you have to start from other places.
There is land to do, of course, there must be people, but the most lacking is precisely these, without land, there is no food, let alone to feed people, this is a vicious circle.
But now Wuyi has given them a blatant reason to grab the territory.
Chang Xing had to admire Wu Dalang when he heard it, he was really extraordinary, he was thoughtful, and then these merchants became excited.
Daizhou City is too small for them, and the land of Jin is already barren, so there are more and more people who want to go out, and Jin merchants are representatives.
Wuyi's method is even more simple and rude, and there are no hidden dangers, Tunshang, a very ancient name, the practice of exchanging salt for grain in the opening of the dynasty, and the practice of storing grain at the border, gradually abandoned.
Wuyi fought this idea, because the imperial court gave too much salt, so there was no need to use it in vain.
This may be something that no one else would bother to do, but now the situation is different, with the involvement of the Chamber of Commerce, the Sheung Shui Chamber of Commerce has now discovered that they lack land and mines.
Not to mention other places, the junction of Jin and Beizhili is rich in minerals, but this is not a grain-producing place, for merchants, they don't care, it is not a place to produce grain, and there is grain if there is silver.
So as soon as Wu Yi said this, everyone had to squeeze their heads, where is the salt introduction that no one cares about, it is simply Shang Fang's sword.
The merchants are in decline, but it doesn't mean that there are none, and the court didn't say anything, so there are even more cats in it.
"I want more iron and copper, as long as you can produce it, Sheung Shui Fang can eat it." Wu Yi gave them another reassurance, which made these businessmen so excited that they couldn't sit on the stool.
Especially some declining iron merchants, the competition in Daizhou is great, and if you change places, that is their world.
The map opened again, and then everyone began to look for their own place, there are too many wastelands in the east of Ulzhou, since Wu Dalang is here, then they can all choose, and with such a big tiger skin banner, they are naturally unscrupulous.
"But the ugly words are ahead, I have explained the matter, you can't bend the law for personal gain, don't forget Zhao Xun's fate, wasteland can be occupied, but you can't oppress the people." Wuyi still has to give them vaccinations, otherwise the businessman will become a madman.
"Of course, I don't dare."
The merchants all agreed one after another, and everyone began to plan in their hearts, and since there were interests, they had enough courage.
Wuyi didn't give them benefits in vain, Ningwu Mansion lacked people, and craftsmen and military households were lacking, so they had to get it from them.
The merchants are also a little hesitant, Wuyi is short of people, and they are going to Tundi now, so there is no shortage of them.
"Pig brain, if you have silver, I'm afraid you won't be able to hire people, follow Wu Dalang, that's a great future, I'm going to let the descendants of my hometown come over, and follow Wu Dalang is also their creation." Chang Xing now only admires Wu Dalang, so he doesn't have a son, but his relatives do, a Hou Da achievement has made him proud, maybe there will be more in the future.
Huang Baobao clapped his hands, sure enough, he is still this old man and thief, who has no relatives, especially these merchants, who used to hide, but now they are giving them a creation.
Now it's not something for Wuyi to think about, the merchants have a lot of thoughts, and they still want to slap him, so they have to do things honestly, Wuyi just needs to give them a good chew and don't take off the reins.
Soon, the merchants sent the children of the clan, and there were not a few, this year, the year was not good, as long as there was a chance, there would be no fewer people, they were all young and strong, even if they were reluctant, but for Wu Dalang, they also gritted their teeth and sent it.
Chang Xing has even gathered fifty strong forces, and he is all the children of the clan, and there are more than 100 people with his family, and there are no old, weak, sick or disabled.
In Daizhou City, the merchants sent 1,500 people to Wuyi, including 700 in Zhuangli.
Wu Yi accepted all the orders, and he was really not afraid of many people, but he was afraid that he had no one.
All of them were arranged in Ningwu Mansion.
The merchants are worried about another thing, that is, the problem of artisan households, they sent their artisans to Danning Wuguan, this Wu Dalang can not admit it.
They simply sent some craftsmen, as long as the craftsmen of the iron shop could be kept, which was the foundation of their iron merchants.
Xia Daxuan's illness has also recovered, tens of thousands of people have come directly here in Daizhou City, and they are all craftsmen, the progress of the project is speeding up, the best thing is that he doesn't have to bother, even rations can be saved, this Wu Dalang really deserves his reputation.
"Since the salt introduction can also be exchanged, it is better to make it bigger, rest assured, the matter of the salt introduction will be handed over to me." Xia Daxuan doesn't care about the question of whether he is a merchant or not, this eunuch is not timid, but he is greedy.
But in a few days, all the salt citations issued by Wuyi were supplemented, and Wuyi's eyes widened, when did this salt quotation become so overflowing?
The imperial court has always attached great importance to salt and iron, but it is not something that can be interfered with at will, and there are iron mines in Daizhou and other places, so there is a chance, but salt is not common.
"It's not that the people are making trouble, this Shu salt is all deserted, and the salt is naturally useless."
What a greedy eunuch, no wonder he sent it out so generously, it turned out to be like this, and it was still genuine silver when he exchanged it for salt in other places.
"This salt is still salt, others can't go, you Wu Dalang can't go?" Xia Daxuan now also trusts Wu Dalang, and the army has increased, and he is also a capable person, the Tartar is ferocious, not to mention the king of the county who was killed by him, not to mention the chaotic people who can't make the climate.
Of course, Wu Yi is not afraid, but he is used to it, he does not trade at a loss, and now it is still the most important thing to build Ningwu Mansion, and everything else is put aside, he needs time to integrate the suddenly swollen army.
The original people's army was only 50 people, but now the shotguns have long been replaced, and the people's courage has exceeded 5,000 people, a hundred times more at once.
It's also a happy trouble, no one trains them, and not only that, but it's also a bit of an eyesore, so Wuyi also plans to change places.
Since the merchants of Daizhou City can settle merchants, Zhenxiwei has to do even more, but what Wuyi is looking for for them this time is a dangerous place.
The land of Shuobei, where even Shuozhou has been abandoned, is mountainous and the main north-south transportation artery, which means that as long as the Tartars go south, they will pass through.
The merchants in Zhenxiwei were a little dumbfounded, this is a fortune, this is not a life?
Wu Yi laughed at them for being short-sighted, looking at the danger here, but in fact, it has been safe for the past few years.
The Tartars are also people, and they attack for nothing but for profit.
Jinbei has been robbed by them, everything that can be robbed has been robbed, and the rest is Jiancheng, I am afraid that today's Tartars do not have this good tooth, this is a huge opportunity.
Shuobei is not a barren land, this is a natural pasture, as long as the people are sent there, it is an enclave.
The safety is guaranteed, and there are many minerals in Jindi, which can be seen everywhere, so that the merchants of Zhenxiwei are all tempted, and they have just been reshuffled by Wuyi, and many merchants are looking at it with their eyes, and now Wuyi is giving them a chance.
Now that Ningwu Mansion has become Wu Dalang's Yiyan Hall, who has any other concerns.
They started moving like ants.
After sending away the merchants, Wu Yi also sat down, and with the role of merchants, his territory would immediately double as long as the interests were great, and the territory would be bigger.
As long as the reins of Wuyi are tightened and there is no chaos, it will continue to roll, just like the greed of merchants.
In the end, Wu Yi's eyes were also aimed at the grassland, this is the place where he must win, if he wants to compete with the Manchu Qing and want greater development, he must take the grassland.
The Tunshang was just a front station, a springboard, what he wanted was to drive a nail in the middle of the grassland, as long as he was there, the Manchu Qing would not be able to unify the grassland.
At the same time, Wu Yi's eyes also looked to the south, his territory was still too small, and the merchants had to launch with all their strength and let them go.
The construction of Ningwu Pass is getting smoother and smoother, as long as there are no natural disasters and man-made disasters, it will definitely be repaired before winter.
