Chapter 294 [Xinjiang Construction Corps]

After pitting his own minister, Yingquliang soon showed the posture and skill of a wise monarch.

The old Qin Zuoshu, who was full of ambition and was ready to kill 10,000 people on the execution ground, could only kill more than 700 people in the end, and he was aggrieved like a little rabbit who had been robbed of a carrot, so he gave Wei Ying another carrot.

This 'carrot' is very strong, the army directly under the jurisdiction of the Zuo Shu Governor's Mansion has increased from 1,000 to 3,000 people, which is not enough, he also gave Wei Ying the power to mobilize Liyang troops when necessary, of course, this is only a transfer, not directly under the central government, the main general of the Liyang army is still loyal to Lao Qin.

But even so, this news shocked Lao Qin. After all, Wei Ying is a civil minister, and the civil minister has the power to dispatch a large army, this is the first time in Lao Qin, who can say that Jun En is not deep enough? So the old Qin courtiers quickly forgot about Wei Ying's experience of being slapped in the face on the execution ground, and guessed that this was just a test of Wei Ying by Yingquliang. Don't think that it is very aggrieved for the king to test you, if you want to be tested, you must first be qualified.

As for the rebellion of the Meng family, it is easier to understand that the rebellion was changed from the Nine Clans to only killing the direct children, and the rest were exiled to the Western Regions. After all, Yingquliang is the new monarch who ascended the throne with an unstable foundation, and the Meng family is a nobleman for many generations, even if there is a treason, if the nine clans are wiped out at one time, it will inevitably make some old Qin nobles die and be sad, it is better to throw them to the Western Regions and add chaos to those Western Regions. This is simply a clever move, the king is wise!

Including wise ministers like Lao Ganlong, they still only know the 'Western Regions', and they don't know the new ~ Xinjiang. It is even more unimaginable that the people of the Meng family who were pardoned are simply the new ~ Xinjiang Construction Corps that Bai Dong expected. Not to mention predicting the future. Knowing that the Persian Empire still has only thirty years of national fortune, if Lao Qin is skillful, he can get greater benefits.

The most sensitive sense of smell is Bai Dong's partner Du Sikong Du, and now Du has fully understood the truth of 'it is difficult to get fat alone', and is the first to enjoy the benefits of joint-stock management. In order to show his repayment, he said that he was going to bleed heavily, obviously Bai Dong was not short of money, and he didn't spend much money when he built Fengming Academy. But he said he had to donate; Moreover, as soon as it was sold, it was 200,000 gold, and a 'education fund' was born in Fengming Academy, which was said to be used to reward outstanding students and teachers.

Although this move made the students happy, gentlemen like Lao Yanjian and Meng Ke would not object.

A gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way is what Confucius said, who dares to say that Lao Yan Jian doesn't love money, he dares to be anxious with whom, and now he wants to go crazy if he wants to publish a book, although Bai Dong generously said that he would help him publish 'Spring and Autumn Dayi', but he is a man who wants to save face, and he refuses to agree to anything, but he doesn't have much money. Du Zhi: This is like sending charcoal in the snow. Now this old man is praising Du Zhi all day long, saying that he has the appearance of a 'power quotient' and a red and bright heart of a Confucian disciple, what kind of evaluation is this? Bai Dong was a little dizzy when he heard it.

It is a good idea to set up a new ~ Xinjiang Construction Corps. But there is still a series of work to be done. Yingquliang is now well aware of the way to be a king, he wants the result, and the process is thrown to Bai Dong, asking for people to give people, asking for money! There can be no problem, in case the Meng family runs to Xin~ Xinjiang to become an anti-king, Wei Ying's butt will not catch fire, and the widow and your kid will be burned on the buttocks, don't blame the third brother for giving you all his sorrows

What else can Bai Dong say? You have to be careful, anyway, opening up a new ~ Xinjiang and communicating with the Eastern and Western worlds is also something that interests him very much.

The main force to go to Xin~ Xinjiang is, of course, the poor people of the Meng family who were exiled, Bai Dong thinks that Yingquliang still thinks too much, and after staging the 'keeping people under the sword', at least eighty percent of the Meng family will be grateful to Yingquliang and himself, otherwise Wei Ying's face will be beaten in vain. What's more, he has prepared two wise leaders for the Meng family, and at the critical moment, they will definitely make their debut and become the 'messenger of God' to save the Meng family, and the Meng family, which has lost all its descendants, will experience a reborn change and establish new achievements for Lao Qin!

The choice of the two has been decided, and no one is more suitable than Syard, a promising young man with a blend of Eastern and Western blood, and a strong leadership; The other Bai Dong has already been calculated, and Yingquliang will not object, but this guy is too slippery, and it will probably take a little effort to convince him, and he will need to wait for the opportunity.

Du Zhi did not disappoint Bai Dong, he actually took the initiative to come, and took the initiative to set porcelain as soon as they met: "Brother Bai, the person I envy the most in Lao Qin is you, the Book of Changes says, 'The family of goodness, there must be Yu Qing', you saved the lives of thousands of people as soon as you shot this time, it is really a blessing and longevity, and the aftermath is endless!" ”

Bai Dong glanced at him: "The whole Lao Qin is the smartest of you?" But this is a little cleverness, and if I were you, I would have greatly praised you for your kindness, but kept silent about other things. Even if you see something, you will treat it as if you didn't see it, and you won't run to show off your cleverness, you belong to the treasure, and it will only be unpleasant. ”

"Good scolding, it makes so much sense, Brother Bai, you are now my life mentor"

Du Zhi nodded again and again, poured himself a cup of tea and drank it, looked at Bai Dong and just sighed: "I don't know what you said to the monarch to make him pardon the Meng family, I only know that you have a huge influence on the monarch." So, now only you can help me, my white brother, Bai Zi, help! ”

"If you weren't too greedy, would the king still fancy your little money? You are to blame, who is to blame now? ”

This product has been cautious all his life, and the bad is bad in the word 'greed'. Although the Du family is an old Qin noble, it is far inferior to the old ministers of the three dynasties like Gan Long and Zhang Yu, and even inferior to the profound old Qin nobles like Meng Xibai; For the sake of power and money, this product first attached Gan Long as a teacher, and at the same time made eyebrows and secretly communicated with the old aristocratic group of Yongyi, that is, the Du family made money in business in the early years, and there was also the shadow of the old aristocratic group behind it.

These were originally nothing, but not long after Wei Ying implemented the new law, the Du family trading company once summoned craftsmen to make weapons for the Meng family. And it's a lot of profit. Now the Meng family has become a traitor. What is he, the guy who once built weapons for the Meng family? It's a big and small thing. If Yingqu Liang really wants to be investigated, a position of Zuo Sikong can't protect his head.

Bai Dong was waiting for the opportunity, and the opportunity was really delivered to the door by himself, and with the rebellion of the Mengxi family, Du Zhi's ass was also exposed, and it was extremely unclean, and he needed a strong person to help wipe it.

"God is pitiful, how did I know that Meng Shuangcheng would rebel? Before the accident of the three families of Mengxi and Bai, who in the old Qin court did not maintain a delicate relationship with them? Brother Bai, you know. Lao Qin's most elite cavalry is in Yongyi, but six or seven percent of them are the children of Meng Xibai's three families, Meng Shuangcheng said that he wants to build new soldiers to prevent the Qiang people, I help him is helping Lao Qin, what's wrong with this? Not to mention my Du family, even the Gan family trading company also took over the business of the Meng family, and especially found the best swordsmith from Wu Yue to give it to him! It's me who is the most unlucky, just helped the Meng family, he rebelled against Brother Bai, my brother has always regarded you as his own brother. Now that the disaster is coming, the teachers refuse to help me. Lao Qin is the only one who can save me. You don't know, your sister-in-law couldn't think about it for a while last night, and she almost found a short-term meeting, I and I are really miserable! ”

"You don't come with me like this. I have seen your wife, her eyebrows and eyes are open, her heart is wide and her body is fat, she will look for a short time? It's a big joke. It's true that you are very unlucky, but you don't have to compare with Uncle Gan's family, the Gan family trading company is doing business, and Uncle Gan is two different things, and he scolds these old nobles in the court. ”

"Brother, you are unreasonable! Could it be that the Gan family is a business, and I am not a business? Yes, I was blinded by money, but why did you just scold me? The teacher said, now Lao Qin can save me is none other than you, if you refuse to make a move, sooner or later the king will investigate me for fornication and conviction of thieves. Good brother, if 200,000 gold is still not enough, how about I add another 100,000? It's a big deal, I'll cover all the 'education funds' of Fengming Academy in the future, just ask for help."

"Why is your lord annoyed with you, in fact, you know best. Are you really just in business? It's just clever! I think I can invite the king on the one hand, and on the other hand, I can't offend those old nobles, it's too naΓ―ve! Now that you've tasted the bitterness, you're coming to me? I don't even bother to pay attention to you. ”

"Good brother, my brother knows that he is wrong, my brother is desperate now, you don't look at my affection, but also think about your sister-in-law and thirteen or fourteen little sisters-in-law, as well as those seventeen or eighteen nephews and nieces, you are a kind-hearted Bai Dashan person, I am the tens of thousands of Meng family members to be beheaded, help! Whatever conditions you put forward, will your brother admit it? Who made me unlucky? ”

"The king actually didn't give up on you completely, otherwise he would have held you accountable a long time ago, and would he wait until today? It's just that there are too many people who don't like you in the middle of the court, and this time you are on the cusp of the storm, which is indeed very dangerous. Now there is only one way, go out and do something tangible for Lao Qin, so that those people are speechless. When you have established meritorious service for Lao Qin, and you return with honors, who else will hold you accountable for your past mistakes? ”

"Going out? Where do you want me to go? Du Zhi opened his mouth and couldn't close it for a long time, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

"Westside"

Bai Dong stretched out his hand and pointed to the west, lowered his voice and said, "Do you know why the king let the Meng family go?" It's for the Western Regions! However, in my plan and that of the king, in as little as three or five years, or as long as seven or eight years, the Western Regions will become a new ~ Xinjiang, and the new ~ Xinjiang of Lao Qin! ”

"Xinjiang?"

Du Zhi was dumbfounded when he heard this, and was dumbfounded on the spot: "Brother, I am begging you to save me, but I am not begging you to trap me" (to be continued......)
