Chapter 653: The Talks Collapsed
The reason why Lu Hanqiang made this kind of concession today is not because of the special existence of this Guanning Iron Horse, in fact, it is also a kind of jealousy of Chongzhen, and he has many ways to put the Guanning Iron Horse to death, but because he knows the reason for the existence of the Guanning Iron Horse now, so Lu Hanqiang can only tolerate it, such a feeling makes Lu Hanqiang as uncomfortable as eating 1oo flies every day, but the matter is clearly there, you have to endure it, who let you live in this feudal society where the imperial power is greater than everything!
At the same time, Lu Hanqiang also believes that businessmen should pay taxes, like Donglin, completely for the interests of those families behind them, and lost 8o% of the tax revenue of the dynasty, but put all the burden on fewer and fewer homesteaders, and caused the people to be displaced and take risks. "Nature.2.
Now Lu Hanqiang wants to change it in his own Liaoxi, but Zu Dashou has collected too much, for example, from Huludao to his own Beizhen, the road is only three hundred miles, as a result, Zu Dashou actually set up fifty cards, and the taxes collected by each card are purely arbitrary, as a result, he needs businessmen to sell grain to Beizhen Montenegro, in Huludao Port, one stone of grain is only one or two silver, and to Montenegro, one stone of grain has reached two taels, and this consequence is secondary, The amount of loans that the bank calculated to these new immigrants is far from enough to pay for the necessities they need now, which has made many new immigrants cry bitterly, and regret has begun to breed, and some people have written back to their hometowns to show their relatives who are about to go to the northeast, explaining that life here is not much happier than in the Central Plains, and this is something that Lu Hanqiang can't stop, and at the same time he doesn't want it to be born. Therefore, this has begun to restrict Lu Hanqiang's grand plan to expand western Liaoning, which Lu Hanqiang absolutely does not want to see and cannot tolerate.
But even so, those businessmen are still complaining about hardship, sometimes they are losing money, which in Lu Hanqiang's view, this is Zu Dashou scraping money on his body, in this world, except for Chongzhen who can scrape his own money (that is no way), no one else can.
As for Lu Hanqiang's concession, Zu Dashou didn't think so, he didn't think that this was his own scraping money on Lu Hanqiang, but that Lu Hanqiang blocked his own financial path, which he couldn't tolerate.
At this time, Zu Dashou was leaning on the table and looked at Lu Hanqiang with slanted eyes: "I said Lord Lu, this seems to be your overstepping of your authority, because you are in charge of the four counties in western Liaoning, not west of Jinzhou, and now there is no governor west of Jinzhou, according to the rules, it is still considered a military management, that is to say, the place and the army are under my control, and when you wait for the emperor to send a governor here, it will not be too late for you to speak." This is to say that the words are divided, Lu Hanqiang's face was not good-looking at that time, and after thinking about it, he still suppressed his anger and said: "Master Zu, if you say so, then can Lord Sun, the Liaodong Economic Strategy, be able to control you?" ”
Zu Dashou could only nod: "Sun Gebu is here, of course he is in charge of me." ”
Sun Chengzong took over at that time and said, "Since I can control you, then I will order you to remove the checkpoints along the way immediately." ”
"Lord Sun is the strategy of Liaodong, he is in charge of the army, and he sets up cards along the way, this is the place, Lord Sun is at this point, please forgive me for not being able to obey my fate." Zu Dashou directly stuck Sun Chengzong's order back, and Sun Chengzong was speechless at that time, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Lu Hanqiang gasped for a while, but in the end he didn't want to make things too stiff, so he took a step back and showed his most sincere smile to Zu Dashou: "That's it, General Zu, and in order to subsidize General Zu Guan Ning's daily expenses, I will leave things like cutting down trees to the general, what do you think?" I still meet the standard according to the original big wood, three taels of silver, so the general should be content, right?
Zu Dashou smiled disdainfully and said to Lu Hanqiang: "Your tree cutting business is indeed profitable, but if you say that in this territory, if I don't let you cut down trees, I'm sorry, you don't even want to enter Huludao Port for a single log." ”
As soon as Zu Dashou's words came out, Lu Hanqiang's face turned cold at that time.
This was the ultimatum, and Lu Hanqiang's face turned cold at that time. Stared at Zu Dashou and asked, "Isn't this matter negotiable?" ”
Zu Dashou said: "There is no need to discuss. ”
"Can't I cut down trees without going through you?"
Zu Dashou said: "No. ”
Lu Hanqiang stood up suddenly and dropped his wine glass: "General Zu, as the so-called blocking people's money, such as killing my parents, you also know that I am the most filial, let alone killing my parents, even if I move my puppy, I will have to fight with him endlessly, you block the economic lifeline of my Liaoxi Zhan, you block my war to restore Liaodong, then the consequences will be quite serious." ”
Zu Dashou saw Lu Hanqiang's cold face, and only then did he remember the nickname of Lu Laohu, and at this time he felt that the matter was indeed quite serious, and he opened his mouth to say something, but the words had already been said by himself, and it was the so-called difficult to ride a tiger, so he snorted coldly and turned his face.
Lu Hanqiang also snorted coldly, and then didn't care about Zu Dashou's face that slowly turned pale, "Don't speculate for more than half a sentence, I'm sorry General Zu, thank you for the banquet, this official has left." Then Huo Ran got up and walked away.
Sun Chengzhong also brushed his sleeves away with a gloomy face, it was originally a good wine banquet, but it broke up unhappily.
Zu Dashou's arrogance simply made the old grandson angry, at that time, his beard was flying and panting like an ox, and when he walked out of Zu Dashou's yamen with Lu Hanqiang, he stomped his feet again and again: "Arrogant and domineering, how can it really be justified, how can it be justified." "Old man Sun is a cultivated person, and all he can scold can be like this, and if this matter is put on Lu Hanqiang to scold people, then he will definitely not be repeated for three days and three nights.
But Lu Hanqiang is not ready to scold people now, because it is not his character to move his mouth at all, and Lu Hanqiang doesn't want to talk to him, so it is better to do something practical, so Lu Hanqiang put down the strength just now, and after persuading Lao Sun Tou for a while, he said with a smile: "Hahaha, there are ways to deal with a guy like Zu Dashou who only recognizes money, there is no need to be angry with him." ”
Old Sun Tou immediately asked, "How do you deal with him?" ”
Lu Hanqiang said lightly: "It's very simple, you just see how the officials do it." ”
