Xian Yuyin continued: "That's right, and I don't hide from Jinwu, although the two brothers of the last general have to be appreciated by the commonplace and lead the military of the six counties of Youzhou, but in fact, only the people of Yuyang County will pay taxes to us, in addition to Yuan Xi in Youzhou, there are still many bandits for the trouble, and we can't raise troops less, so the days are more difficult." ”

Cao Pi smiled and said: "This is indeed the truth, I am the pastor of Youzhou, and I should be in charge of this grain and grass in the future, and I will work hard." ”

Xian Yuyin hurriedly humbled. While speaking, the group has arrived in front of a wealthy gentleman's mansion in Lucheng, the Han Dynasty's 400 years of rule has made the architectural style here the same as the Central Plains, white walls and black tiles, high-level, dougong, cornices, but the pattern and ratio are not as particular as the Central Plains clan, looking at the mansion Although it is also a high-rise family, but after all, it is not as scattered as the buildings of Zhong Xuan Manor, the height is different, the high-rise buildings and wide walls are all the same, and there is really a feeling of local gentry.

The banquet is set in a wide main hall, and there is a screen behind each table, and the paintings on the screen are full of birds and beasts, which are completely different from the mountains and rivers of the Central Plains, showing that the folk customs here are fierce.

People here like to eat mutton, not like to eat roast and fish like the Central Plains. The mutton will smell like it has not been complicatedly processed, and in Cao Pi's opinion, it is not as pleasant as eating the army's dried meat, but following the local customs, now he can only eat the roast mutton in front of him.

In addition to the generals of Cao Jun, there were thirteen local squires who participated in the banquet, and there were nine county towns in the entire Yuyang, and each county had one or two important figures, and now these people were all in the hall, and it can be said that these people in the hall were people who could influence the fate of Yuyang County.

Cao Zhang was also at the banquet, and next to him was Sima Lang.

Cao Pi raised the jasmine wine in the jasmine wine to persuade everyone to drink, and after everyone drank it, Cao Pi said: "I came to Youzhou this time, I want food but no food, I want money but no money, and some are the more than 10,000 soldiers outside the city. There are also tens of thousands of sergeants under the command of General Jianzhong, Captain Hu Wuhuan, and General Yuan Xi, all of these sergeants have to eat, and if they want to eat, they have to farm the land. ”

After all, Cao Pi's reputation as a farmer is known to everyone in the world, only to listen to Cao Pi's words, and said: "But this kind of land will take a year or two to become a climate, so I want to borrow grain from all of you, all of you here are a squire, manors, Wu Fort, there are many good fields, if there is no grain I will not believe, today's banquet also has a little Hongmen banquet meaning, I intend to borrow grain." For the livelihood of tens of thousands of soldiers, I can only pull down my face to borrow food from you, but well, I will not borrow in vain, and the autumn harvest in two years will definitely be returned, and I will pay back 30% more. ”

Cao Pi's words were abrupt, and everyone was a little stunned by his protruding topic, this new official took office just like the local clan borrowing grain in the Han Dynasty is really rare, the two things that the local clan is most nervous about, one is the population, and the other is food. The former is the guarantee of their production, and the latter is the capital of their livelihood, and it is easy to arouse the dissatisfaction of the big clan when they ask for food.

If a county official is strong enough, moves his family, and comes to the county seat, he will naturally be able to control the overall situation, for example, Cao Hong was the county magistrate in a small county town (less than 10,000 households are called the chief). He is very strong, so that the local squires can't raise their heads, but it is difficult for a county to use this simple and crude way, because a county will have several county seats, if a county needs a thousand people, Yuyang needs 9,000 troops to subdue a county, and these 9,000 people have to eat, medicine to live, and to pay for money. That means that the local government has to pay heavier taxes, which is almost impossible.

First of all, this time touches the interests of the local clans, if they touch their interests, as the head of the land, he has 10,000 ways to make you uncomfortable, first of all, he can dismiss the tenants of his manor, only say that the poll tax can not be paid and let them solve it themselves, and then pay the tax due, in this way, the dismissed tenants and the people who are forced to live will rebel, at this time, the army will be suppressed, after the suppression, the local will naturally not produce, and there will be no harvest in the coming year, the local clan can cry with you and be poor, and cannot hand over the grain, In the end, you have no choice but to rob hard, if you rob hard, then the big clans in other jurisdictions will also rise up to resist, how can the local big clans not know the truth of the rabbit and the fox, when the time comes, as a county guard, you can only fall into a long-term struggle, and finally if the court does not give you army food, you can only take the clansmen back to their hometown, or go up the mountain and fall into the grass.

A county is still like this, a state is not to mention, the Han Dynasty officials like to use the big clan to restrain the local people, these big clans have land, money, people, they can use the economy, use force, with wisdom to restrain the local people well, but also pay taxes on time, and they don't need a penny from the government, just need to send a county order or county magistrate to go, such a good thing, why not?

Therefore, Cao Pi took a big risk by opening his mouth to borrow grain, if it is not handled well, and this word spreads, I am afraid that it is possible for the whole state to be opposed, not to mention that this half of Youzhou is still in the hands of the Yuan family, Wuhuan and Liaodong Gongsun clan, and the local clan is not without a choice.

Although there is a risk, Cao Pi feels that he has to take this risk, because it does take time to farm the land by himself, and the army's food is only enough to eat for a year, and the food for the troops needs to be solved by himself, so what if he doesn't borrow grain?

Besides, he promised to give more than 30% interest, but it is a lot of small amounts, although these big clans are rampant in a county, but after all, they are people from small places, and they value the small profits in front of them, and they will inevitably move.

Sure enough, an obese squire asked, "Is the thirty percent that Zhi Jinwu said for food or something else?" ”

Cao Pi smiled and said: "For example, today you borrowed one hundred hundred, and in two years, how much is this hundred hundred, I will give thirty percent more of the value, or money, or things, in short, it will definitely not be less than a cent." ”

Sima Lang suddenly spoke at this time: "The lower official has something unclear, please solve the puzzle of Jinwu." ”

Cao Pi said: "Boda said. ”

Sima Lang asked: "But all borrowed things must be mortgaged, I wonder if Zhijinwu has a mortgage?" As soon as these words came out, Cao Jun's generals changed color.

In the feudal dynasty, who dared to ask Shangguan to mortgage such a thing in the era of the official standard? Isn't that looking for death? However, Cao Pi admired Sima Lang very much, because only Sima Lang understood his intentions and led the conversation down.

"Mortgage .... Naturally, there is. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
