Guiyi Shan Yu Xia Yi was edicted to set off from Chang'an on the 14th day of February in the spring of the seventh year of Yuande and went to Longcheng. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After a month and a half of trekking, this Guiyi Shan Yu entered Dragon City under the protection of two thousand Han cavalry.

Xia Yi's formation was very large and majestic.

In addition to the 2,000 cavalry, there were 5,000 foot soldiers, including 3,000 Mo sword soldiers.

Along the way, the cold light was fierce, and the military appearance was prosperous.

Along the way, those who heard changed color, and those who saw it were shocked.

They all knelt on both sides of the grassland to welcome the great Shan Yu into his loyal Dragon City.

As soon as he entered Dragon City, Xia Yi first entered the Shan Yu Palace, which had been prepared for him a long time ago.

The so-called Shan Yu Palace, after the Han army occupied the Dragon City, the original central building complex in the Dragon City (the old Xiongnu sacrifice platform and the old nobles to support the dome group) was transformed into a palace close to the palace of the Central Plains princes and kings.

Of course, the palace is still very shabby.

There were only 3,500 houses, no gardens, no studios, no libraries, and no archives.

In the entire Shan Yu Palace, there is no one either.

Except for dozens of maids who had served the Xiongnu nobles found by the Han army from Longcheng, there was not even a single eunuch.

It can be described as poor and white.

But Xia Yi was still excited to look at the entire Shan Yu palace inside and out, and then sat on the Shan Yu throne designed for him, squinting his eyes and moaning happily.

He grabbed his waist, the single seal ribbon that symbolized his identity and status, slapped it heavily on the table, imitating the appearance of the Chinese princes and kings, sitting upright, raising his head and chest, clearing his throat, and then said: "The widow is ordered by the Son of Heaven, all of them are in this Dragon City, fortunately!" ”

"However, the name of Dragon City is quite taboo in China, and few people think it is inappropriate, so it should be ......."

A middle-aged man dressed as a scribe bowed and said: "Shan Yu has this intention, and the minister thinks that it is better to write to the Son of Heaven and ask the Son of Heaven to give the city a name!" ”

This person's surname is Zhang Mingchang, and he is one of the strategists that Xia Yi has been mixing in Chang'an for so long and finally found it.

It is also Xia Yi's most important staff now-this person once served as the Suiyang Commander of the Han Dynasty, and later was involved in a corruption case, lost his official position, and could only go home to farm.

But he was unwilling to do so, so he went to Chang'an, wanting to find a noble person to take refuge in, starting from a diner, wanting to make a comeback.

But the problem is - the nobles and doctors of the Han family are now noble and cheap.

I only love that husband, a true hero and a hero.

Even if they want to train strategists and staff, they also want to be small fresh meat, so that it is easier to train them to become the next generation of close ministers.

Besides, this Chang butt is not clean, even if someone is tempted, they are not willing to use him.

The answer is simple - three-legged toads may not be easy to find, but two-legged literati doctors are all over the streets.

Now is not the time of the Warring States Period, if you read a few books, you can go to the mansion of Pingyuan Jun and Meng Weijun to eat and wait for death.

Now it is the Huanghuang Han Dynasty, and the people of the time praised it and said: The destiny of Weitian, the Han Empire, which is not obvious, is the high mountains of Zhiqi, the mountains of Qiaoyue, and the Yunyu River. Under the sky, the right of the time, the great era of the life of the Han.

In such a great age, the literati have become less and less valuable.

The engraving printing industry has brought about a big explosion of knowledge popularization.

Nowadays, even middle-class families can let their children read and write.

Many of the writings that were once considered top secrets are now everywhere as long as there is money. All kinds of academies blooming all over the world, accepting students in different ways, some schools of Confucianism, and even playing the trick of waiving his tuition fees and subsidizing him in order to grab a good talent...... Legalists offer a variety of 'internship opportunities'.

For example, an outstanding disciple of a certain giant's academy can always be arranged by the division commander to go to a certain law enforcement yamen or a local government office run by a Legalist bureaucrat after three or five years to study and observe the trial and judgment of specific government affairs and cases......

Even the books of war, geography, and astronomy, which used to be regarded as dragon slaying, are no longer the preserve of a few people.

Under such circumstances, on the one hand, the scholars and intellectuals were in high spirits, full of passion, and immortal poems continued to flow out.

Everyone thinks that the rule of three generations is not far away, and the world can be expected to be the same.

There is a smack of history ending in the hands of our generation.

So much so that in the past, it was impossible to evaluate the dynasty's 'Weitian's destiny, so it is not obvious', such a eulogy to praise the Zhou family under the rule of the Duke of Zhou, was also overshadowed on the empire.

On the other hand, the gold content of intellectuals is depreciating more and more.

The best evidence is the examination.

Thousands, or even nearly 10,000 examination scholars, were born from the examination system every year.

And the number of references every year is also increasing year by year.

According to the estimates of the Shaofu and the Prime Minister's Office, in five years, the number of references for the first examination is likely to exceed 100,000!

What is this concept?

For every 500 people, there is an intellectual and a scholar in the past concept.

In such a situation, the traditional scholar family is panicked and seeks transformation, while the emerging intellectuals look up to the legends of Zhang, Ji and Yan on the one hand, fantasizing that they can also meet such a master, and on the other hand, they feel inferior and self-pitying in panic.

As for old bureaucrats like Zhang Chang, who may have been considered talented people in the past, their value is constantly depreciating today.

And the rate of depreciation is directly proportional to the growth rate of the examination.

The higher the number of examiners, the lower the gold content.

Scholars and doctors have quickly changed from a buyer's market to a seller's market.

His situation is somewhat similar to that of a future university monk.

In the beginning, it was the pride of the sky, and then, it depreciated year by year, and eventually, I had to travel between different companies for a job opportunity......

A civil service examination is a single-plank bridge crossed by thousands of troops.

If you can't adapt, you can only be eliminated.

Obviously, Zhang Chang is unwilling to be eliminated by himself.

So, he chose to be Xia Yi's staff.

And Xia Yi, as a Xiongnu Shan Yu, even if he is a Shan Yu canonized by the Son of Heaven.

However, few high-level intellectuals were willing to serve him.

After all, everyone is not stupid, and if you serve Xia Yi as a staff, the result is likely to be self-exclusion - who dares to use an official who has served as a staff member and diner for the Huns?

Ask yourself, everyone thinks that if they were Jiuqing, they would definitely not be willing to promote and promote a person who had served as a staff member for the Huns.

But Zhang Chang is different.

He can only choose this path to break through.

Naturally, he could only do his best to assist Xia Yi.

I hope that in the future, I can occupy a place in the Han family.

Because Zhang Chang knew very well that the future imperial court would definitely need to be familiar with the affairs of the grasslands and outside the Saiwai, and be good at handling and managing the officials of the nomadic tribes and the Yidi countries.

And the facts have also proved that the first person to eat crabs can always have sweetness.

For example, Anton's great development is also like the road to fortune of Zhang, Ji and Yan.

Therefore, Zhang Chang immediately suggested that Xia Yi should give Chang'an a sparse and please change the name of Dragon City.

And Xia Yi also has this intention.

However, his thoughts are clearly different from Zhang's.

Zhang Chang is thinking about problems from the perspective of Han officials, and he Xia Yi is the eagle dog of the Son of Heaven.

He knew very well that he had to be more well-behaved and deferential than others imagined in order to make a good impression in front of the Son of Heaven.

After thinking about it for a while, Xia Yi shook his head and said, "Since the widow is His Majesty's minister, how can he let His Majesty do everything?" Don't do it too! It's better for Mr. to think of a good city name for the widow, and ask Your Majesty for permission to play again! ”

When Zhang Chang heard this, he also nodded, anyway, his duty was just to come up with ideas, and he would be worthy of the money and rewards given by Xia Yi.

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Chang bowed and said: "Shan Yu has received the grace of the Holy Son of Heaven, the matter of the Lord Huns, and His Majesty wants to educate all the departments with Shan Yu, if you don't ask Your Majesty to play Shan Yu, please change Longcheng to say: Shunde ......"

"That's a good name!" When Xia Yi heard this, his eyes immediately lit up.

The word Shunde is really wonderful in his eyes!

First, this shun character, expresses his obedience and surrender, and the second is when today's sub-year name is Yuande.

Of course, this sycophant has to be slapped on the thigh!

"Please Mr. draft a seal for me......" Xia Yi said immediately, and his impression of Zhang Chang was even higher by a level, thinking that he could improve the other party's treatment and salary.

"No!" Zhang Chang heard the words and bowed.

In this way, the matter of changing the name of Longcheng to Shunde was decided, and only when Xia Yibiao arrived in Chang'an, the Son of Heaven could officially change its name.

Zhang Chang thought for a while, and then said: "Today, Shan Yu is ordered by His Majesty to pacify Longcheng, and return to Shan Yu for the Han Dynasty. ”

When Xia Yi heard this, of course, he nodded again and again: "It should be like this!" As it should be! ”

Although he has been enthroned for two years, he is still a bare-bones commander.

In this dragon city, there are only dozens of servants, staff, and guards given by the Son of Heaven to command.

Others, most of them, won't be able to bird him.

Especially Han Ru, the captain of the loyal and brave army, didn't pay much attention to him in his eyes at all, and maybe even thought that he came to this Dragon City to make trouble and add to the blockage.

Naturally, it is necessary to convene all ministries, establish authority, and let Chang'an and the Han family take a good look, his Shan Yu is still very useful!

As for whether the Munan Ministries will bird him?

Xia Yi was not worried.

Whoever disobeys will perish!

Chang'an sent him to Longcheng, but he didn't just sit in this single palace as a clay statue.

It is even more necessary to borrow his hand to surrender and recover the various ministries of the Shogun, and exercise effective control over the Gunnan.

Moreover, it is not just a son of heaven who hopes that he will do this.

There is also a huge group, a terrorist interest group!

"Go and invite Yang, Peng, Zhuo and other gentlemen to come here to ......," Xia Yi immediately ordered.

Soon, more than a dozen pot-bellied, luxuriously dressed, and extraordinary men came to Xia Yi together.

"We have seen Shan Yu ......" Everyone greeted Xia Yi slightly: "I don't know what Shan Yu called us to order?" ”

"Now that the widow has been appointed by the Son of Heaven to declare the king outside the fortress, he needs the help of all the kings, and he also asks the kings to do it according to the agreement!" Xia Yi immediately couldn't wait to plead.

These people are the biggest thrust and the biggest support for him to come to this Dragon City.

That's right, he's a single commander of the light pole.

But the problem is that even if he is a puppet, he is still single, and he has value that can be used.

And in this world, the group that is best at developing and utilizing the value of others is undoubtedly a businessman!

These more than ten people are all confidants or nephews of famous wealthy businessmen in the Han Dynasty.

Everyone standing behind them may be a giant of thousands of families.

In the past, they had been friends with Xia Yi for a long time, and even provided a steady stream of money for Xia Yi's enjoyment.

also used their connections and relationships to create an image of a good loyal slave of the Son of Heaven and a good servant of the country for Xia Yi in the court, so that Xia Yi could come to Longcheng smoothly to join the country.

Naturally, they are not philanthropists.

Giving so much, of course, is in pursuit of returns.

And what these people want is also very simple - a dumping place for commodities, a place for the supply of fur resources.

So much for.

When these people heard this, they looked at each other, and then someone came out and said: "Shan Yu, 200,000 stone grain, 100,000 stone stalks, 5,000 stone salt and 10,000 horses of cloth, and 3,000 stone of cheese are already waiting in the clouds. ”

"And, if there is still a need, we can continue to mobilize supplies!"

Between the words, the pride and heroism in the chests of these people are really like tigers!

After decades of development, the merchants of the Han dynasty have finally reached a point beyond the reach of their ancestors in the past.

A giant already has thousands of employees, hundreds of thugs, tens of millions or even tens of thousands of families.

Now, these dozens of giants have joined forces, and they can mobilize hundreds of thousands of stone of materials and grain and grass without hesitation, and it seems that as long as there is a demand and it is profitable, they can also mobilize more resources!

It's just horrible!

Back then, when Chu and Han were fighting for hegemony, the Xuanqu Ren clan probably didn't have the ability to mobilize so many materials!

But, this is not surprising.

Today, with the spread of various new technologies, food production has increased dramatically.

Although, in many places, there are still large numbers of poor people, and many families are not even able to eat and wear.

But the groups at the top of the pyramid undoubtedly possess greater power and wealth than in the past.

Moreover, the development of Anton and the gold rush and the victory of foreign wars caused a wave of middle-class blowouts in the world.

The group of 10,000 to 100,000 families even accounts for 60% of the total population in Guanzhong.

There are thousands of households between 100,000 and 1 million.

People who have become wealthy need more resources and can afford to consume more resources.

Meat, dairy products, furs, dried fish, things that ordinary people could not have imagined in the past, now they can afford them.

The boom in the consumer market has prompted businessmen to take action to find a source of abundant and affordable raw materials for their customers.

Without a doubt, there is no better place to do it than Makunan!
