Chapter 121: The Divine Decree Arrives (Part II)
Shuzhong has been called the country of abundance since Li Bing repaired Dujiangyan, and it can be said that in ancient China, in addition to the south of the Yangtze River, it was called the second Tianzi fishing and rice town. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
As the old saying goes, you were born in Sichuan, died in Yunnan, and were buried in Shandong.
Sichuan is the country of abundance, born to eat rice and drink springs.
The beauty of Yunnan is like jade, the scenery is like the sound of heaven, and the south of the colorful clouds.
Shandong is the hometown of Confucius and is known as the treasure land of feng shui.
The wealth of Shuzhong is not only the gentry, because of the reason of Dujiangyan, even if there is a big drought, it can ensure that the river will not be cut off, and the farmland is worry-free, if it is a big flood, then Dujiangyan can also play a role in water storage and flood control.
Therefore, the green mountains in Shuzhong are continuous, and the green water flows for a long time. In Shuzhong, almost anywhere, even if it is digging wild vegetables, it will not starve to death, not to mention that there are often mountain goods and the like between the mountains and fields, and there are also aquatic products in the river.
And other boundaries obviously do not have such good conditions, such as Guizhou, although there are rivers but the mountains are high and rocky, in case of a major drought, the rivers are cut off, not to mention the crops, that is, people and livestock want to drink a sip of water is a luxury, such a place can not be out of the homeless?
Li Maosen has been an official for 20 years, and he also started from the county order, and because of his merits, he climbed step by step to the position of the governor of Bashu, which is a beautiful place, and he felt that Shuzhong was indeed a place of happiness and longevity in the world after being an official for more than a year.
He actually didn't come to Hongcheng this time, but because of the attention of the cabinet and Jiajing, he also became curious, in addition to the Bashu town guard eunuch Wang Jingui, this person is actually a heartfelt dog next to Jiajing, and Huang Jin He is also from the Xingxian Palace, but he is a little older than Huang Jin, but because of his heart, although he does not have much knowledge, he is also entrusted with Bashu to guard the eunuchs, control the southern Sichuan army and Shuzhong related matters.
If Li Maosen is the governor of Bashu, then this prince is the governor of Shuzhong secretly, although he will not participate in local governance, but if someone plots against him, I believe that he will cut off his head at the first time, of course, he also has an identity is Shuzhong Jinyi Wei Qianhu.
Wang Gonggong also received a secret fold from Huang Jin early, the content of the message was so large that even he was dumbfounded, the excerpt not only mentioned Yang Ming's reward, but also pointed out that he needed to receive the share of the coal group in Shuzhong, as well as the manufacture and sale of spirits.
The first dividend of the coal group was actually sent by the prince to escort him to the capital, but obviously he didn't stretch out his hand about the spirits, it's not that he didn't dare, Yang Ming had already stated that the manufacturing method of this wine should be dedicated to Jiajing, then it was a royal thing, but the displaced people who had come one after another in the southwest drought made him dispel the idea of this spirits business.
After all, although the profit of this liquor is not small, he still believes more in the governance ability of those civil officials than the rivers and mountains of the Ming Dynasty, and professional things are done by professional people! He thought that even if he got the money, even if he had the power to use the money, he would not be able to be like those civil officials, and those displaced people would be properly resettled, so he acquiesced in the actions of Pang Yan and others.
Facts have proved that the prince is indeed not a master of chaos, but also open-minded, because of the silver and food in exchange for spirits, the negative impact of the drought will be quickly eliminated, although the later still needs to be appeased, but the land of Yungui is still safe.
What he hopes most is to meet this Yang Ming Yang Zile in person, he thinks it is better for him to announce the benevolence of the thousands of miles of flying pigeons, this genius who contains the spirit of Shu If he can do things wholeheartedly for the master, then the Ming Dynasty may be much better.
Wang Gonggong has studied everything since Yang Ming became famous in Hongcheng, this is definitely a great talent with a lot of wisdom and close to demons!
Li Maosen needed to put on a shelf because of his identity, and lived in Hongcheng, and when Yang Ming was about to go to the capital, Wang Jingui didn't think so, the person who could do errands for the emperor was a good courtier, and the person who could bring millions of taels of silver to the Ming Dynasty a year was definitely worth his personal visit.
Green mountains, green water!
All the way to the country road.
Wang Gonggong sat in a wide sedan chair and came to Guanghua Village with a retinue of thousands of hardships.
This is a very ordinary small village along the river, the same simple villagers, the same fields, and the only difference is the few sheds that have just entered the village and the busy sound inside.
"There seem to be quite a lot of people in that room!" Guanghua Village was angry, Wang Jingui felt that this was the biggest difference between this village and other villages, he had actually been to a lot of places, and the village had lived a few times, but except for some squires, the rest of the people were getting by, and there was less yearning in their eyes, just a numb mess of life.
However, Guanghua Village is different, almost all the people chatting at the head and end of the village are old men, old ladies or some women and children, as for the young and strong, there is no one in sight, listening to the noisy sound in the house, he is very curious, what is going on inside, making such a big noise?
A brocade-clothed guard next to him hurried away, and came back in a moment.
He respectfully handed Wang Jingui the switch of a charcoal stove, and said respectfully: "Father-in-law, there is a workshop inside, and those Zhuang men are making this charcoal stove lid inside!" ”
The charcoal stove has now swept the entire Ming Dynasty, its convenient and safe use method and the effect of saving firewood have driven a lot of urban people to use, Wang Jingui's house has this thing, he smiled and played with the coal stove lid in his hand and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
"This Yang Gongzi is really a character, and being able to be neighbors with him is also the creation of these people!" Wang Gonggong pointed to the shack next to him and said to the entourage next to him: "See? A lid can make a profit of three big bucks, and I estimate that such a shed is a lot of daily output, and I am afraid that as long as one of these people works here, it will be enough to feed a family! ”
"What my father-in-law said is very true!" Just now, Nalux said: "The price of a charcoal stove is twenty-five Wen, the furnace body and the heart of the furnace are actually not complicated, but this cover is made of pig iron and needs to be punched on it, and it is ten Wen on the retail market, according to the news reported by our spies, they wholesale to the charcoal furnace merchant Jia is six Wen, saying that it is these Zhuang households who have five big money for one person, although they can't reach it, but there are also three Wen, a person only needs to make ten lids a day to have 30 Wen's input, as long as it is not a big fish and big meat to feed a family of five, it is not a problem!" ”
Wang Jingui was immediately happy, but those businessmen's hearts were too dark, but they just resold them, and they took away four big bucks after a while!
Thinking of this, his face became much colder, these businessmen should clean up!
He secretly made up his mind, but there was a commotion in front of him, he frowned again, but heard the entourage outside report: "Father-in-law, the Yang Mansion has arrived!" ”
