Chapter 388: Treasure

Qin Shaoyou looked at Wei Hongmin with a smile.

He thought about it, but his eyes were still clear.

Wei Hongmin's gift is indeed moving, but if you really think about it, in fact, the benefits that the Wei family gets from it are really huge.

Henan ......

Qin Shaoyou was struggling and swaying in his heart, which was almost a fatal temptation.

With Luoyang, there is enough consumer market, even after the relocation of the capital, a large number of wealthy families moved out, the number of nobles and wealthy families here is also amazing, after all, even if the Son of Heaven is gone, Luoyang is still the eastern capital, those who have a house in Luoyang even if they migrate, but there will always be a part of the clan left, eggs will never be put in a basket, Luoyang, no matter what, will always become the place of property for the powerful people in the world's state capitals.

This is actually the simplest magnet effect, just like the provincial capital of later generations, a province, whether it is the rich or the middle class, whether they have any real estate or real estate in the local area, but always want to buy a property in the provincial government, even if they may not live there for a few days for many years.

The same is true in Luoyang, the world's rich families and official eunuchs, some people may not come to Luoyang several times in their lives, but this kind of person is not short of money, and will definitely buy a property in Luoyang, and he will not live in it, and he will also arrange some loyal servants to guard, or send some children of the clan to study there.

Luoyang and Chang'an are both such big magnets, and what this magnet accumulates is a steady stream of consumption power.

The reason why Mengjin was able to quickly build his own trade network was because Mengjin's goods were either unique or cheap, and the other bigger reason was that it relied on Luoyang, because it relied on Luoyang, the most prosperous city in the world, and every move of the wealthy families here would cause people all over the world to follow suit. Their preferences, to some extent after a year and a half, can quickly affect everyone in the world, countless tourists and eunuchs are attracted by Luoyang, gather in Luoyang, countless businessmen, will bring the world's specialties here, here is abundant, and at the same time is one of the world's largest trade network intersections, thus. Meng Jin stayed in Luoyang, so that he could make a fortune quickly.

For example, the vast majority of merchants, in fact, they have never heard of Mengjin, they only came to Luoyang, only because they arrived in Luoyang, and heard Luoyang people talk about the benefits of doing business in Mengjin, so they came to Mengjin for a trip.

So......... Wei Hongmin's conditions are particularly attractive.

Of course, the benefits are not only these, because it is necessary to town Luoyang. It is inevitable to recruit more Shence Army, and the Shence Army can be selected from the entire Henan Province, with more population and fertile land. The ready-made business network is a must-visit place for Shi Eun tourists, and at the same time, it holds the geographical location of the throat in the east of the Kansai region. This location happens to radiate to the entire east of Kanto, and at the same time it can immediately reach the Yellow River. Radiation to Hebei.

And for Qin Shaoyou, the real terrible thing about Luoyang is not only these, the reason why Qin Shaoyou covets Luoyang is because of Emperor Yang of Sui.

Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was so happy that after he ascended the throne, in addition to using troops everywhere, an important reason for his defeat was the construction of canals. He recruited tens of millions of people to build the Jiangnan River from Yuhang to Jiangdu, and then connected the Yangtze River with the Jiangnan River, and between the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, he built the Tongji Canal, and then used the Yellow River to build a Yongji Canal to connect with Zhuojun.

The land of Guanzhong, after the Sui and Tang dynasties, gradually declined, which has a great relationship with the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, which was called the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in later generations, and the four important points of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal are precisely the four cities of Nanjing, Beijing, Luoyang, and Hangzhou in later generations, which have since become the capital of most dynasties and the most prosperous place in the world after a hundred years.

If it is said that Chang'an is guarded, it is to sit on the land of Guanzhong, but because of the emergence of the canal, then whether it is Zhuojun or Luoyang, Jiangdu or Hangzhou, then it is equivalent to getting half of the world's financial supply.

Luoyang, is precisely the most important key point on this canal, Luokou not far from Luoyang holds the middle section of the entire canal, to the north, all the goods can reach Hebei through the Yongji Canal, and even directly to Zhuojun, to the south, the cargo ships from Luokou can go straight to Jiangdu and Yuhang, and then through the dense water network in the south of the Yangtze River, the goods are transported to any location.

This is also the reason why, after Wu Zetian ascended the throne, he immediately built the Luokou warehouse in Luokou, where thousands of warehouses and warehouses were lined up, piling up goods from south to north, and ...... It is the material of the government, and even the taxes that are transported from various places.

Maybe the current Guanzhong is still rich and the products are still abundant, but Qin Shaoyou knows that once he occupies this place, if he uses the model of the imperial court to just use the canal as a transportation of money and grain, maybe the benefits of this canal are not obvious.

Once it will be operated in the Mengjin model, the future will ......

River transport, in this era, is almost equivalent to the most convenient and cheap means of transportation in the world, and the role in this era is no less than that of the so-called maritime cities with deep-water ports in later generations.

But Qin Shaoyou still couldn't speak, he just looked at Wei Hongmin with a smile.

There are some things, the more you see the benefits here, the more you can't show it, the legacy left by Emperor Yang of Sui does have many benefits for the current Tang Dynasty, such as because the river transport connects Zhuo County, so it consolidates the frontier and provides a guarantee for the Tang Dynasty to use troops against the Turkic box Goguryeo. For example, because it connects Jiangdu and Yuhang, Jiangnan can be developed, making it a fertile land no less than Guanzhong and Kanto.

And for Qin Shaoyou, the impact is even more far-reaching, this is a big treasure, what the imperial court can develop and utilize, is only one-tenth of this treasure, but Qin Shaoyou can unearth all its benefits.

Qin Shaoyou took a sip of tea lightly, just smiled, and then said lightly: "Wei Shizhong, having said that, but this king is really rare to guard Henan Mansion?" Not to mention how can this king be virtuous, this king asks himself, even if it is Shence Mansion Town Henan, how much benefit can it have? ”

What he meant was that Luoyang and Luokou in Henan Mansion would become his burden.

But this is silent, and the more you want to get something, the more you can't show it, so as not to be seen through.

Wei Hongmin saw that Qin Shaoyou did not show the slightest joy, and he couldn't figure out what Qin Shaoyou meant for a while, so he couldn't help but say: "Your Highness, once this Henan is returned to the capital, it will inevitably be empty, and it must be guarded by His Highness." This is not only the meaning of the old man, but also the meaning of the mother. ”

He deliberately bit the word Niangniang very hard, which is to tell Qin Shaoyou, as long as you nod your head in this matter, there will be no obstacles, and the Wei family will take care of it.

Qin Shaoyou smiled, shook his head and said, "As for this king, he is a courtier, if he really has a king's order, he naturally does not dare to refuse." His tone softened a lot, because he could get the sincerity of the Wei family from Wei Hongmin's mouth, since they had enough sincerity to come, there was obviously no need for him to be pretentious.

Wei Hongmin was overjoyed when he heard this, and said: "This is wonderful, if Your Highness is willing, this is the blessing of the people of Henan." ”

This guy is very shameless, but whatever he says in his mouth can be eloquent.

Qin Shaoyou smiled and said, "There is one thing...... But he still wanted to discuss a thing or two with Wei Shizhong. ”

Wei Hongmin frowned: "I don't know what's going on?" ”

Qin Shaoyou said lightly: "Has Wei Shizhong done business?" ”

Wei Hongmin was stunned for a moment: "Trading, what trading?" ”

"Here in Mengjin, there is a means for doing business, called buy one get one free, this is used to solicit business, does Wei Shizhong know what it means to buy one get one free?"

"Ah......" Wei Hongmin was speechless in surprise, buying and selling...... Also buy one get one free, what the hell is this?

This guy doesn't want to get some benefits, that's it...... Still not satisfied?

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

After some negotiations, Wei Hongmin was finally satisfied.

That's right, Qin Shaoyou satisfied him, not him satisfied Qin Shaoyou.

Because Qin Shaoyou's exchange conditions were too tempting. What Qin Shaoyou gave him was the Cui family, and it was very likely that they were behind the assassination.

Of course, Qin Shaoyou would not offend the Cui family, but he just let out a little bit of news from the Shence Mansion, and he would never jump out to testify against the Cui family, and it was extremely unwise to completely fight with the Cui family.

Merely...... With this, Wei Hongmin is enough to be satisfied, because as long as the rumors are released, it is enough to arouse the conjecture of the people of the world, why did your surname Cui assassinate Qin Shaoyou?

Kanto people will think, your surname is Cui to kill the king of Hongnong County, this is not with us.

The people of Guanzhong and Longxi will be more thoughtful, what they think is that at this juncture, your Cui family is going to make a big news, this is not a deliberate attempt to sabotage the return of the capital, so as to pull the Wei family's back legs in the return of the capital.

These rumors and suspicions alone are enough for the Cui family to be dumbfounded.
