17 Building Power (Asking for Votes, Asking for Collections)
PS: Today's recommended ticket to 200 will be added tomorrow
Liu Hong fed the eagle and teased the dog all day long, and had a lot of fun. Only now did he fully appreciate the joy of life.
A good life always goes by quickly, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye. Although Liu Hong has not been in charge of things in the past two years, because he has already made a good plan, the Hou Mansion has completely risen.
The current Hou Mansion is not the Hou Mansion that could collapse at any time two years ago. Not to mention the projects sorted out by Liu Hong, almost all of them have been experimented so far. Even a large part of it has been produced and sold, earning a lot of money for the Hou Mansion. Let's just say that there are more than a dozen of them on that large farm.
Of course, with so many farms, it is certainly impossible for them to all be in the river. Because Liu Hongzhi is in the world, he knows the truth of building high walls and accumulating grain. In order for him to ascend the throne as the emperor in the future, he can quickly control the world. After considering it all, he identified a number of places in the states to establish farms as bases, and in just two years, he made a dozen.
These farms and farms are not the same as the farms between the rivers, they mainly exist as bases for hiding soldiers and grain. Although they also practiced ecological planting, in order to meet Liu Hong's requirements, most of the farms mainly planted high-yield crops, including a variety of corn and sweet potatoes in the north, while Champa rice specially sent by Liu Hong to Linyi in the south was planted.
The development of the Hou Mansion, in general, is still good. Now it's about asking for money, money, and people. It's only been a short two years, and I believe that with the passage of time, the Hou Mansion will get better and better.
But Liu Hong is still not satisfied with this. There are money and people, but the power of the Hou Mansion is still not large, especially the power in the court, which can be said to be almost equal to nothing. This is definitely a kind of sadness for a marquis who is a member of the Han family. If this Hou Ye is still a traverser, it is even more sad in sorrow.
At the beginning, the Deng family sent people to seek his secret method, but Liu Hong always remembered it. If he has power in the court, as a member of the Han family, why would he let a small relative bully him.
In the past, if you don't build power, it's mainly because you don't have money. I can't even support myself, so how can I entrap others. And now, the money of the Hou Mansion is sufficient, so Liu Hong is playing in the court and establishing his own power.
To build power, it is difficult to say that it is easy to say, and it is easy to say, but the main thing is to use money and interests to maintain it.
Liu Hong's young age makes it impossible for him to be trusted by others. However, he didn't plan to use his own name, and in the eyes of others, the head of the Hou Mansion should be Liu Chang, the bedridden Marquis of the Jie Du Pavilion.
Don't look at Liu Chang is very sick, maybe he will die one day. But as long as he doesn't die for a day, he is also the marquis of the Han Dynasty. As the cousin of the current emperor, the dignified Marquis of the Pavilion, it is really not difficult for him to recruit some forces, especially those small forces.
The power in the court can be built up slowly, but some people's relationships should be done now. The great heroes who recommended Liu Hong to the throne in history, Liu Qi of the Hejian Wangzong clan, and Dou Wu, the father of Queen Dou who is still not interested, are all candidates who urgently need to have a good relationship.
Liu Qian, as the royal family of Hejian, has a relatively close relationship with Liu Chang, otherwise, in history, he would not have elected Liu Hong as the emperor.
Although the relationship between the two parties is close, in Liu Hong's mind, this is not enough, and there need to be enough interests to bind the two parties, so that it is enough to be safe.
Liu Hong was young, and he was only thirteen years old after ascending the throne, so he simply did not have enough prestige to suppress the ministers in the court. So a lot of things need to be prepared for a rainy day. And Liu Qian is an important part in Liu Hong's eyes. This is not only because he was a great contributor to Liu Hong in history, but also because this person is capable enough, and he is a close relative of Liu Hong, so he is more trustworthy. After Liu Hong ascended the throne, Liu Qian could completely help Liu Hong control the court.
In order to get closer to Liu Qian, Liu Hong made a bloody investment. partnered with him with a glass mirror that was faster than robbing money, and established a business together.
Although Liu Qian is from the Hejian royal family, he is not very good now. After all, the Liang clan had only been exterminated for less than two years, and the emperor had just gained power, so how could a clan like him be reused so quickly. After all, in history, he only got the opportunity to recommend Liu Hong because of his personal relationship with Dou Wu. And that Guanglu doctor was able to become a doctor in order to welcome Liu Hong into the palace.
Liu Qi, who was miserable, was suddenly smashed by a big pie, how could he not be excited. The glass mirror Liu Qike knows that it is bright and bright, and it is more than 10,000 times stronger than the copper mirror. It caused a sensation as soon as it was listed in Luoyang, and the only few pieces were all bought at a high price and sent to the palace.
Such a project is a unique business, and Liu Qian knows that this is really the same as grabbing money. But Liu Qian knows that there is no free lunch in this world, and this project is so profitable, it must not be for nothing. Although Liu Chang didn't ask for anything, Liu Chang's situation was clear to Liu Qian, and there shouldn't be much time left. He is giving so much now, just to wait for him to be gone, so that he can take care of his family.
There is a big difference between the thinking of the ancients and modern people. Especially the people of the Han Dynasty, that ethics is almost the most in the past dynasties, and it is definitely the grace of dripping water, when the spring reciprocates. Now that Liu Chang has paid such a big benefit, Liu Qian has made up his mind that he will take good care of the Jiedu Pavilion Marquis Mansion in the future and take good care of his eldest nephew Liu Hong.
In modern times, this is simply incredible. Not to mention taking care of orphans and widows, the biggest possibility is to wait for Liu Chang to die, Liu Qian will drive Liu Hong and his wife out directly, and then take Liu Chang's family property in one pot.
has a good relationship with Liu Qi, and it will be easy to tie up Dou Wu again. Now Dou Wu is just a Lang Zhong who no one cares about, and with Liu Qian's recommendation, it is quite easy to burn Dou Wu's cold stove.
Liu Hong is preparing to build up his forces, and some people have come to report that according to observations, there is a possibility of locust plague this year.
The locust plague, at the beginning, was not too difficult to treat. As long as you make up your mind to catch it before it grows wings, it will basically not be a big harm. However, due to superstition and other reasons, people did not dare to touch it, and when it became a disaster and grew wings, it was too late to catch it.
Now that the signs of the locust plague are revealed, Liu Hong must not wait to ignore it, and he decided to personally inspect the fiefdom.
Walking on the road of the fiefdom, Liu Hong's mood was excited. His fiefdom has changed a lot now, a wide ditch surrounds the entire fiefdom, and on the towering slope, there is a huge water building, and five water wheels more than ten meters high are whirring, sending water to the water building.
Near the main road is the academy established by Liu Hong. Liu Hong has invested a lot of money in this academy, and the entire academy covers an area of more than 30 acres, with green bricks and green tiles, and smooth and smooth cement pavement. A academy of this magnitude is counted in the entire Han Dynasty.
