Chapter Seventy-Eight: Asking Dong Zhuo and Yang Xi to Expedition to the North

Today's Exian county, there are not many people, there were only five or six thousand people in the city, as Chenhe Port became more and more prosperous, many people simply moved there to live and became merchants.

These people gradually developed into a new force, and they were already well-known in more than a dozen counties in Jiangxia, and were known as Hushang merchants.

However, the recently deserted Exian County Government has stationed five or six hundred people, led by Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong.

Then two new brands were added to the Exian County Ya, one is "Exian County Ministry of Agriculture" and the other is "Exian County Construction Department".

The county magistrate is still Roland.

Roland now Yang Xi can say whatever he wants, everything is arranged according to his arrangement, because he is convinced, he is too convinced.

The new management class of Exian County, composed of Luo Lan, Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong, was formally established, and the other county government departments were all under the control of the three people, and all of them were dissatisfied.

Including the Hu family and the Huang family.

Luo Lan first registered the people of Exian County, no matter how big or small the landlords, all stopped keeping slaves, and violators ---- redeemed by the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce. All the citizens of Exian County must have the identity certificate of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, which is a steel card with their name and place of origin registered.

This is the census.

Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong were responsible for the measurement and determination of land, and all owned land had to be registered and re-registered, and belonged to the existing private owners, which was sacred and inviolable.

Private land is never taxed.

This surprised everyone, the land was never taxed, and the grain produced was all privately owned, and whoever did not support it, the big and small landlords were speechless.

The remaining ownerless land is owned by the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce in Exian County. All peasants who are willing to cultivate can receive a share of the land according to the number of people in their families, and it will be privately owned.

To do this, it will take a month.

Zhang Zhao is the Minister of Agriculture and is responsible for all arrangements for new arrivals. In addition to being responsible for the division of land, it is also responsible for each household, and distributes a set of curved plows, threshing machines, and keel waterwheels, which are built by the Chenhe factory and will always be privately owned.

Gu Yong is the Minister of Construction, responsible for all infrastructure construction, widening existing roads, building canals, all migrant workers, free to participate in the construction, wages by the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce is responsible for daily distribution.

Yang Xi did this because of the fact that now the reputation of Chenhe Port is growing, many refugees have come to defect, Chenhe factory, there are simply not so many people, those who voluntarily join the fighting team are okay, and those who are unwilling can become farmers in Exian County.

Even if you join the army, you have a family and can find a foundation in Exian.

Now Guangchen River Port, there are forty or fifty people who come to vote every day, and there are almost 2,000 people a month, these people are engaged in industrial production, so where does the food of the society come from, so agriculture is also the top priority.

By October, there were more than 10,000 people in Chenhe Factory and the county itself, plus the new population, the total population had reached 50,000, and it had become a large county.

When Yang Xi came, Jiangxia had a population of only 260,000 and more than 10 counties.

Seeing that Yang Xi used Exian County as the private territory of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, Liu Xiang had no choice.

The Chenhe Chamber of Commerce even defeated Sun Jian, not to mention him, and now the strength of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce has swelled so much that it cannot be compared with that day.

Indeed, excluding 1,500 cavalry, the fighting battalion also reached 1,500 people.

Chaisang and Peng Ze's guards also increased to five hundred. There are also four thousand five hundred guard battalions, what kind of concept is this, it is completely possible to occupy a county directly.

These are all elite soldiers who are full of wine and food, and they are trained by eating beef, and Liu Xiang thinks that he does not have this strength.

No way, people are too rich.

In September, Dong Zhuo coerced Empress Dowager He and his courtiers to depose the young emperor and set up King Chen Liuwang as the emperor, in order to present the emperor.

In October, Dong Zhuolu killed the Empress Dowager He, and then autocratic government, and the heroes were based in various states and counties to fight against Dong Zhuo.

He abolished Emperor Shao of the Han Dynasty as the King of Hongnong, and renamed his younger brother King Chen Liu as the Emperor of Han Xian, and sent someone to poison the mother and son of the King of Hongnong, claiming to be the Taishi, specializing in court politics.

Cao Cao saw that Dong Zhuo was perverse and unwilling to cooperate with him, so he changed his name and fled from Luoyang, the capital division.

After Cao Cao arrived in Chenliu, he "scattered his wealth and joined the righteous soldiers", and first advocated the volunteers to call on the heroes of the world to crusade against Dong Zhuo.

For a while, the heroes echoed, all of them screamed, and Sun Jian was the most fierce in the south.

Yuzhang County guarded the king mastiff, but because he had a good relationship with Dong Zhuo when he was fighting in the north, he was noncommittal, but Yang Xi knew that this old guy resigned later, and he didn't want to go to Dong Zhuo, and he was afraid of being scolded.

But now Yang Xi can't let this happen, Wang Mastiff can not crusade against Dong Zhuo, but he can't resign, in case someone who doesn't deal with him comes, when the time comes, Yang Xi is not afraid, but the population that is defeated is resources.

And slow down the pace of development.

When Cao Cao unified the north in a few years, he would lie on the Yangtze River to hide, and then there would be nothing.

In November, the third giant ship, the Kunlun, was launched. The Kunlun was born with heavy snow, Yang Xi didn't see the birth of the Kunlun, he was in Chaisang at the moment.

Through secret channels, he made an appointment with Wang Mastiff and prepared to negotiate.

The Yangtze River appeared in Peng Lize, this is not the first time, and everywhere it goes, it can't cause too much shock.

It is not the first time that the Taishou Wang Mastiff has appeared on the Yangtze River.

But today, the mastiff is a little heavy.

"Lord Taishou, the heroes of the world condemn Dong Zhuo, even the enemies who fight for life and death on weekdays, they all consciously let go of their hatred at this moment, and the goal is directly aimed at Luoyang, what do you think?"

Wang Mastiff's eyes were closed, and he pondered for a long time and said: "This county wants to resign from his official position, retire from now on, and seek a refuge in your Chaisang territory. As you said in your trip to the Yangtze River, the success or failure of right and wrong turns empty, the green mountains are still there, the sunset is red several times, the county has seen through it, it is better to make a white-haired reef. ”

Yang Xixin said: "Sure enough, it is no different from history." ”

"But in this way, more than one million people in Yuzhang will definitely fall into dire straits." Yang Xidao.

"When the manpower is exhausted, the county is powerless." The mastiff seems to have really seen through.

Yang Xi said with a smile: "What adults value is nothing more than loyalty and righteousness." The adults and Dong Zhuo have the righteousness of comrades, and the Han has the status of monarchs and ministers, but what does this have to do with the people, the kid has a short article, please take a look. ”

Yang Xizi took out a volume of articles in his arms and handed it to Wang Mastiff.

The mastiff opened and meditated.

"The peaks and mountains are like gathering,

The waves are like fury,

Mountains and rivers surface Tongguan Road.

WANG Luoyang,

Hesitation.

Sad Qin and Han meridians,

The palace is made of soil.

Xing, the people suffer; Death, the people suffer. ”

At the end of the reading, Wang Mastiff's heart sank.

If the world is stable, it will definitely be built on a large scale, and the people will suffer from labor and money. If disasters are everywhere and wars continue, the people will suffer.

Unconsciously, Wang Mastiff shed tears.

but the mouth has been silently rejoicing, and the people are bitter; Death, the people suffer.

Yang Xi saw that the emotional card was almost played, so he hurriedly made a suggestion in a timely manner.

"You don't have to go on the Northern Expedition, but you don't have to resign from your post either. There is a way to solve this matter. And Yang Xi hereby guarantees that as long as I, Yang Chenhe, am in one day, I will definitely let the people of Yuzhang not suffer from the rise and fall. ”

Wang Mastiff stared at Yang Xi and said, "This county believes that you have this ability." ”

Yang Xi knew that this Wang Mastiff, like Li Qi, was conquered by what he had done, and with his support, he could establish a base in Yuzhang County in the future, like Exian.

"Tell me what you do." Wang Mastiff asked.

Yang Xi said: "Your Excellency doesn't need to personally lead the troops to the expedition, just lead the troops in the name of Yuzhang County." ”
