Chapter 67: Goodbye Tian Feng
Exactly, this is the win-win, win-win-win trade situation. So where exactly do these benefits come from?
That is, from the 200,000 people under the jurisdiction of Wen Chou, after all, they are laborers and creators of value! Without their labor, there would be no profit from Wen Chou, let alone the income of other parties who traded with Wen Chou. And Wen Chou is just maximizing the value created by the labor of the 200,000 people under his jurisdiction!
To give a simple example, in ordinary times and places, except for the two seasons of the year, the people of Qianshou are relatively idle, some will work for the government or large families for a long time, short-term work, receive five or six hundred, thousands of dollars a month, or pull some odd and bits of work, such as weaving straw shoes, weaving straw mats, weaving, making tools, making inferior pottery, etc., a little subsidy for the family, but more is that there is nothing to do! Especially the exiles of Xin'an, even more so!
In this way, a huge amount of labor is wasted! Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people have no work to do, and this will breed some crimes, of course, this is a foreign word. And Wen Chou is to assign some work to these idle people and laborers that they can do, so that they can have work.
If you have work, you will naturally have income, and where did Wen Chou find these jobs! It is from his dealings with others that he produces what others need, so that those who trade with him will get what they want. And Wen Chou can also extract the difference from it, so isn't it a win-win-win game!
To put it simply, it is just making full use of its huge labor force of 200,000 people. It makes the value created by them as a whole greater and more efficient. Only in this way can we maintain the rapid development of the power of the civil and ugly.
When Wen Chou came to Julu County, it was already December, and it was the 15th, when he set off from Gaoyi County. It's been three or four days. It is also true that it took one day to arrive in Yangshi County, and one day to stay in Yangshi County, in order to improve the transaction and start cooperation in more aspects. Wen Chou's efforts have naturally been rewarded accordingly.
After that, it was another day along the road, and Wen Chou came to Julu County again. It's afternoon. Wen Chou arrived, and led more than 100 cavalry! Such a battle could naturally attract the attention of the head of Julu County. And the county gentleman was very pleased with the coming of Wen Chou again, and after receiving the report from the personnel, he decided to personally lead people to greet him.
This is because of the transaction of Wenchou, which has enabled the development of Julu County to a higher level, and it can be regarded as breaking through the bottleneck. The county ruler of this county is still relatively enlightened, so the development of the county has been good, but it is only limited to the good category. It's nowhere near the level of excellence. Today's Julu County has finally broken through that category and successfully reached the excellent level after half a year of development after some agreements with Wenchou.
Wen Chou would not refuse the invitation of the county gentleman, so he went very politely and conducted further negotiations. But that's not the main purpose of his trip! Therefore, after this incident. Early the next morning, Wen Chou led his men to the Tian Mansion. Go and visit Tian Toyoya!
"Wen Jun wants to find the head of the family, Mr. Yuan Hao, right? Please come with me. The head of the house is waiting for Jun in the study" As soon as Wen Chou came to the door of the Tian Mansion, a rather clever young man came from the door to speak.
"Oh, your lord, I was expected to be here!" Wen Chou laughed.
"Exactly, long after Wen Chou entered the city. This is what the head of the family decides. The boy said proudly.
"Okay, then you can take me there!" Wen Chou did not become arrogant because this young man was attached to the Tian family, but said calmly
"Haha, Mr. Yuan Hao, the contemptible entered the city yesterday. Invited by the county gentleman, I didn't see Mr. first, please forgive me. Wen Chou bowed his hand and said.
"Wen Jun is the king of a county, since everything is busy, it is a contemptible luck to be able to take time to come to the poor house today! How to talk about forgiveness. Tian Feng returned the salute. Although he is upright, his etiquette is still very complete when he treats people and things.
"How can Mr. Yuan Hao's house be a 'poor house', it should be a family of ten thousand gold! Only the great talent of Mr. is deserved! Wen Chou then greeted.
"Haha, Wen Jun is really good at laughing, contemptible people are just a country person, how can he be the mouth of Wen Jun's 'great talent'! Hurry up and get seated! Tian Feng laughed, and then pointed to the seat and asked.
"Thank you, sir, for your seat! The boy doesn't do that superfluous courtesy anymore. Wen Chou said with a smile.
"Since Wen Jun came to the mansion, wouldn't he just say such a 'greeting'?" Tian Feng pointed to the soup in the wooden bowl on the table.
"The gentleman is upright, as I have seen today! I've come here to ask about something. Wen Chou continued.
"Oh, what does Wen Jun want to ask about the contemptible people?" Tian Feng said with a smile, looking like he knew without thinking about it.
"Without him, Mr. Xiangbi has also heard that when the farming season was busy this summer, he once repelled the attack of thieves from three sides!" Wen Chou said.
"I have heard that Wen Jun can face the attack of the three armies, and he can still repel them with weak soldiers! It's really a 'masterpiece'! Tian Feng said, his face was still so calm. Obviously, although Wen Chou's way of dealing with thieves is not very appreciated.
"However, Mr. also knows that the county has now entered the eyes of Zhang Yan, the marshal of Kou Daqu in Montenegro! Although it is said that it is the middle of winter now, it is unlikely that it will send troops, but if it is the beginning of spring, it must be the day of the army! I am here to ask for Mr. and protect 100,000 miles of Li Min! Wen Chou said solemnly, and then bowed respectfully. This is half a solicitation.
"Hehe, Wen Jun doesn't have to be polite, Jun is worried, I also know a little! The fact that Zhang Yan secretly colluded with thieves and launched an attack on Guixian is a great injustice! And you can retreat with weak soldiers! So that tens of thousands of people will be settled, and they will be good ministers! I will help you, but I can't return to the county with you! Tian Feng is still very clear about Wen Chou's thoughts, and said.
"Well, since Mr. is nostalgic for his homeland and doesn't want to migrate, the kid won't be strong. It is also a great blessing to be able to adopt the strategy of the gentleman to deal with the enemy, so as to reassure the people. Wen Chou heard Tian Feng's words, and a look of disappointment passed over his face, and then he said gratefully.
"An people, the contemptible people want to contribute their modest efforts, but whether it can be done or not, it is still up to him to say." Tian Feng said.
"Sir, why is he too humble!" Wen Chou laughed.
"It's not too modest, it's the truth! Otherwise, why would the contemptible people be idle here! Moreover, without military strength, even if the contemptible people have a thousand strategies and ten thousand strategies, they can't hurt half a point of the thieves in the world! When Tian Feng heard this, he said with emotion.
People who are familiar with Tian Feng know that this is not common in him, and he is often as calm as water and as warm as the wind. It's just that I don't know why today, why I showed it before Wen Chou, maybe I was showing favor to Wen Chou!
Although he did not agree to Wen Chou's solicitation, it also showed his optimism about Wen Chou, so to speak, Wen Chou has entered the scope of his consideration, but some conditions are still a little lacking! Therefore, he never responded to the expedition of Wen Chou.
"Haha, sir's emotion is quite uncommon! I can see it today, but I am lucky to be tight! Wen Chou said with a smile, and then changed his words and said: "Now the number of soldiers I can contact and invite is about 6,000, I don't know if I can solve my husband's worries?" But the words were tactful.
"Six thousand? Why are there so many of them! This time Tian Feng was quite surprised, his understanding of Wen Chou and Gaoyi County was only limited to the spread of the streets! At most, count the conversations between those scholars. I don't know much about Wen Chou's true strength.
In his impression, Wen Chou, the king of Gaoyi County, is in charge of tens of thousands of people, and it is a big county. It is already the peak to be able to have a county guard of 3,000, how can it suddenly reach the number of 6,000! Six thousand, such a number of soldiers is enough to attack the county and occupy the county! In some small counties, I am afraid that there are not even 6,000 county soldiers! How could this not shock him!
"Sir doesn't know anything! These 6,000 soldiers need to be seconded from Pingjian County, Taolinsai needs to be seconded with 1,000 and 5, plus all the county soldiers in this county! That's what I made up of 6,000! Of course, if possible, Luancheng County will also be seconded a little. Wen Chou explained.
Although Wen Chou said the words of 'secondment', but Tian Feng is such a smart person, from the rumors he knows, a little combined with one or two, and now knows the meaning of Wen Chou's words, and also has a new understanding of Wen Chou's strength and power.
Before, he didn't pay attention to Wen Chou, but treated him as an ordinary admirer, although there were many correspondence exchanges, and most of what he said and talked about was an academic matter, that is, sometimes he 'talked about it', 'wind discussed' current affairs, and some of Wen Chou's opinions made his eyes shine, so he took a look at Wen Chou, but it was only a glance! How insignificant it is compared to the shock of the current Wen Chou.
Now, combined with the rumors he knew, as well as the information that Wen Chou's mouth had not revealed, he thought about it for a while, and was surprised to find that Wen Chou's power had developed to the current level! It's already to the point where you can make enemies in the same county!
However, according to what Wen Chou said before, this is not his goal! It's just one of the processes too! So what is his goal? Completely rid the Black Mountain bandits? Or is it a hegemon? Or do you want to rid the world of thieves? The more Tian Feng thought about it, the more shocked he became, and the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't help himself.
