Chen Yuan is doing very well now, including Hokkaido, where there is no trouble. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Sometimes it is very effective to suppress the resistance of the other side, holding a knife in one hand and bread in the other. The premise is that the other person is afraid of your knife and needs your bread.
The four islands of Dongying have become the Yingzhou Mansion of the Great Song Dynasty, and those handicraft workshops designated by Chen Yuan have also begun to move here, and some technicians have already arrived first, and have begun to hire those Dongying people to work for them.
For these Song people who came to Dongying, as well as these workshops, Chen Yuan gave great care. In addition to receiving the salary of their shopkeeper, technicians are also provided with a house. Dongying now has a lot of houses, and in just a few years, the population has decreased by seventy percent, and empty houses are everywhere. Those people also received a small monthly subsidy from the yamen as a reward from the imperial court.
There is no fee for those workshops in the first year, and the second and third years depend on the operation of the workshop. At the same time, it was announced that a special economic policy would be implemented here, and as for what kind of policy, it would be decided by the imperial court after a year.
Wu Hao is indeed very talented, before this he prepared a group of landed talents, Chen Yuan just handed over Honshu Island to Wu Hao, Wu Hao immediately asked this group of talents to build schools in various parts of Dongying to teach these Dongying people to speak Chinese.
He also posted a notice board outside the former Dongying Imperial Palace, which was converted into a palace, and after three months, everyone here must speak Chinese on official occasions, and Dongying can only exist as a local dialect, and no Dongying font must appear after the documents exchanged.
At the same time, Wu Hao cleaned up the original Dongying books, and transported the scientific and technological books to the Great Song Dynasty, and as for the books that recorded the history of Dongying, they were all burned.
In order to improve the cultural level of the Dongying people, Liu Yong will open a branch office in Dongying, and in the future, what those Dongying scholars write will be approved by the branch and then mass-produced using the printing technology of the Song Dynasty. Except for the branches, any organization or individual must publish books in any form, even if they are copied by hand.
The village security system that Chen Yuan implemented at the beginning has been abolished, and now the laws of the Great Song Dynasty are implemented here, which is exactly the problem that Chen Yuan wants to solve now. After Dongying implemented the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, many Dongying people set off a wave of moving to the Great Song Dynasty, which was not allowed before, but now, everyone is a family, and going to the Great Song Dynasty from here is like going from one room to another, there is no reason to stop them.
Some Dongying people went to the Song Dynasty to see if there were better job opportunities so that they could get rid of the unsafe island. Some people want to go to the Great Song Dynasty to see the excitement during the New Year, and more people are going to settle down.
Let them go to the Great Song Dynasty to exist as an ethnic minority, which is very helpful for the rapid stabilization of Dongying, but as a businessman, the labor force has been outflowed, what should Chen Yuan do? So this phenomenon must be stopped immediately.
Before Chen Yuan could think of a suitable way, Renzong and Chen Shizhong's letter to Chen Yuan arrived. Chen Yuan read both letters, and from Renzong's tone, he already felt Renzong's anger, and it seemed that this time his son, who had not yet met, really made a big deal out of it.
He smiled a little on his face, it's a good thing to be able to make things right! If a person can't do everything, he is destined not to do things. The same is true of the country, there will always be troubles of one kind or another, and if there is no trouble, it will not be far from the death of the country.
"Brother Wu, I'll go back first, this time my son made a big fuss, and I want to go back and end it for him."
Chen Yuan handed Na Renzong's letter to Wu Tianqi along with Chen Shizhong's letter, and Wu Tianqi was very moved, which in his opinion was Chen Yuan's trust in him. After taking it and looking at it, his eyes suddenly emitted a light, and like everyone else, his first reaction was what Chen Shimei was going to do.
Looking up at Chen Yuan's eyes, Chen Yuan seemed to know what he was thinking, and shook his head helplessly: "It's not what you think." ”
Wu Tianqi was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Master Horse, what do you mean?" ”
Chen Yuan stood up from his chair: "My meaning is very simple, in fact, the emperor's meaning is also very simple, it is those ministers who think it is complicated." Sima Guang, this bastard, actually ran to find those princes, and suddenly made things out of control, I will teach him a good lesson when I go back this time. ”
Sima Guang's reputation Wu Tianqi knows, that is the rising star of the Great Song Dynasty.
"Hehe, where to use the horse master? In this way, you let him come to Dongying, and I will clean him up for you. ”
Wu Tianqi's methods of rectifying people are also endless, although Sima Guang is conceited and talented, but compared with Wu Tianqi, he is not thick enough, and he may be sold by Wu Tianqi and still helping for some money. This proposal is very tempting, it is far away from the Great Song Dynasty, and at that time, Sima Guang was rectified, and there will be a kind of helplessness called heaven and earth.
However, Chen Yuan felt that he had not yet reached this point. He had been with Sima Guang for a while, and that kid was just too stubborn, but he wasn't actually a bad person. Besides, anyone who wants to do great things can allow those who oppose and those who oppose themselves to exist.
"No need, you can help with Dongying's affairs. You look at this coastal defense map. ”
Chen Yuan took a drawing from the edge of the table, and Chen Yuan marked one circle after another around the Great Song Dynasty with red marks, each circle meant a small island.
Chen Yuan's hand clicked on Dongying's position: "Look, we start from you and extend the island chain to Qiongzhou, in this way, we can have a great wall on the sea to protect the interior of the Great Song Dynasty without losing it, and if we want to come out, we also have a stable base." ”
The coastline also needs to be defended? This concept seems a little incomprehensible to Wu Tianqi. But since Chen Yuan said so, he will handle his own affairs here. In fact, in Wu Tianqi's opinion, Chen Yuan is better gone, with Chen Yuan here, many of his methods cannot be used.
Chen Yuan thinks that there is no suitable reason to prevent the Dongying people from going to the Great Song Dynasty now, and that is because compared to Wu Tianqi, Chen Yuan is not thick enough.
It's very simple to let these people stay, the ticket, Wu Tianqi has thought about it, now a ticket to the Great Song Dynasty is five taels of silver, and the people of Dongying have never been short of silver. All they had to do was steal the plates from the former daimyo's house to pay for the journey.
Wu Tianqi plans to use gold to calculate the ferry ticket in the future, and a ferry ticket is twenty taels of gold, but he wants to see how many people can go to the Great Song Dynasty.
In short, he is confident that he will use his methods to complete the task given to him by Chen Yuan, maybe the means are not bright, but the effect will definitely not be bad.
"Don't worry, don't worry, I'll do the work, and I'll give you good news after a while."
Chen Yuan also believes that there are many people in this world who are stronger than himself, although the Great Song Dynasty has been pushed around by himself, but without himself, Dongying's affairs will definitely be able to do well, and the turmoil in the Great Song Dynasty will also be calmed down.
He wants to go back because it is his son who is in the whirlpool, and as a father, he has the responsibility to protect Zhao Shi's safety.
"Okay, I'll leave tomorrow, and I'll leave the matter to you. Brother Wu rest assured, after going back this time, I will definitely recommend you to the emperor to be the prefect of Yingzhou Mansion. ”
Wu Tianqi was overjoyed in his heart: "Thank you for the promotion!" ”
Chen Yuan embarked on the way home, with a hint of excitement in his heart. To be honest, he wasn't worried that Zhao Shi's matter would end in trouble, as long as Renzong made his meaning clear, he believed that those ministers and princes would back down.
It's just that Chen Yuan didn't know that because of the distrust caused by this incident, another crisis was about to erupt.
On the outskirts of Bianjing, Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and other Kaifeng Mansion Catchers stood in front of a very beautiful-looking mansion.
And Yan Chasan was inside with a group of people, looking at the woman in front of him, Yan Chasan waved at the rest of the catchers and told them to retreat, leaving Zhanzhao alone in this house.
After everyone retreated, Yan Chasan poured himself a cup of tea, first took a sip slowly, and his eyes drifted to the woman from time to time, as if he was staring at a prisoner.
This kind of look made Shen Rui very uncomfortable. She is already married, last year she met a general who returned from the battlefield, two years older than her, his wife died of illness at home, whether it was appearance or body, the general made Shen Rui very satisfied.
And Shen Rui's wealth and figure also made the general's heart move, and the two lived together. Shen Rui has had enough, she wants to be a good wife and mother, if she can give birth to a child, then she wants to live the kind of life of husband and child at home every day.
She is trying to forget her previous life, even Chen Shimei. But at this time, Yan Chasan came to the door.
"I want to know that when Taishi Pang was beheaded, all his wives and concubines were sold into the hook fence, and some were even directly beheaded. At the beginning, Master Pang was the most pampered to you, how could you be safe? ”
This question is very easy to explain to Shen Rui, because Chen Yuan has already made preparations in this regard: "Lord Hui, the slave family was originally going to be sold into Goulan, but when I met a kind merchant, I ransomed the slave family. ”
Yan Chasan smiled: "That merchant is from the same state, surnamed Li, right?" ”
Shen Rui's eyes were a little evasive: "Since the adults know everything, they still ask me what to do?" ”
Yan Chasan shook his head slightly: "I went to check, there is such a person in Tongzhou, and he did admit that he helped you redeem yourself at that time, but,"
He paused here when he said: "At that time, his family property was only tens of thousands of yuan, helping you redeem yourself, and buying you such a big mansion and a hundred acres of fertile land, this is a bit unspeakable, right?" ”
Shen Rui was about to speak out to defend herself, but Yan Chasan interrupted her: "The most unreasonable thing is that since he helped you redeem yourself, he hasn't come to you once, am I right?" ”
Having said this, Shen Rui calmed down, personally picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Yan Chasan: "Since my lord has already inquired so much, why bother beating around the bush?" What do you want to know, but if the little woman can answer, she will not hide it from the adult. ”
Shen Rui thought about it, it's a big deal to drag Chen Shimei out and see if this adult can fight him, she doesn't want to live like that anymore now, her husband will come back soon, let him see all this, it's not good.
Yan Chasan picked up the teacup: "Okay, then I'll ask directly." You tell me, did you put the purslane on the master at the beginning? ”
Shen Rui's face suddenly changed greatly!
