Chapter 209: The Trick of Money and Food

The affairs of the Zhen family came to an end, and Ye Teng began to care about the grain harvest in the territory.

Since the establishment of Tianma City, Ye Teng has been like a hard-working little bee, constantly pulling people into his territory, and now, the population under Ye Teng's rule has exceeded 60 million.

But here's the problem, when the population is only tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, relying on Ye Teng's powerful robbery ability, even if he only buys grain to feed them, it is not a problem, but now tens of millions of people, if they don't rely on the self-sufficiency of the territory, even if Ye Teng is killed, they can't support so many people.

Therefore, since Ye Teng took charge of Yanmen County, he has always regarded the suppression of bandits outside the city as a major event, and the main soldiers under Ye Teng's command have devoted themselves to the vigorous cause of suppressing bandits in Yanmen County in the past year. It is so that the people of Yanmen County can go to the outside of the city to farm with confidence.

Fortunately, the soldiers were effective, and the player's power to suppress the bandits was also a fate, and by the time of the autumn harvest in 188, the bandits outside Yanmen County had little impact on the grain harvest.

Although Yanmen County is still a little insufficient to achieve self-sufficiency, the bumper harvest in Tianma City is basically barely enough to ensure that food does not rely on imports.

Troubled times are coming, and we will have to vigorously stock up on grain next year. Otherwise, in case of a natural disaster**, a large number of displaced people from other states and counties will pour in, and at that time, the massive population will not be fat, but a disaster.

However, now he doesn't have much money in his hands, even if the Zhen family is stationed, objectively hoarding a lot of food for the territory, but after all, it is someone else's food, and when the victims are hungry, it would be good if the Zhen family didn't raise the price, and they could still hope that they would take it out for relief?

In a few months, Luoyang will be in chaos, and it seems that he has to step up his layout and strive to grab more money, otherwise it will be a waste to leave it to Dong Zhuo.

All eunuchs, generals' mansions, palace mansions, and family mansions are all suitable targets for robbery, no matter whether they are black cats or white cats, as long as they can obediently let Ye Teng grab the money, they are all good cats.

When Emperor Ling died, Luoyang would be in chaos, and in 189 AD, there were countless heavyweights who died, Emperor Ling of Han, Empress Dowager He, Empress Dowager Dong; HE Jin, HE Miao, DING Yuan; As well as Jian Shuo, Zhang Rang and other eunuchs, at that time, Luoyang can be described as a place of murder and robbery, if you don't rob, others will still rob, what is polite? Whoever grabs the most efficient will win.

And after grabbing money, you can also grab people easily, for example, Cai Yong's father and daughter, Gao Shun, Chen Lin, Jia Xu, etc., should not have a certain object of allegiance, can they be stunned in the space and brought back to the territory to slowly train?

After thinking about it for a long time, Ye Teng ordered the guards to call Guo Jia and Chen Ping.

"See the lord!" After a while, Guo Jia and Chen Ping appeared in Ye Teng's study.

"Fengxiao, Wufeng, I invite you to come today, I have a task for you.

According to reliable information, His Majesty the Emperor's health is deteriorating day by day, and it is expected that something will change next year, when the struggle between relatives, eunuchs, and families will become white-hot.

All things are foreseen, and those who are not prepared are wasted.

I hope that the two of you will cooperate to strengthen the control and network of the imperial capital, and at that time, while all parties are fighting, we will take advantage of the fire to rob, the Shichang Servants, the General's Family, and some families and bureaucrats are all rich, and we will take the opportunity to take out their wealth and use it for the construction of the people's livelihood of the forces in Tianma City.

I decided to add another 2,000 Jinyi Guards to the place, plus some peripheral personnel who were developed locally, to specialize in the layout of the imperial capital.

I will give you half a year to determine which mansions and yamen are more valuable, where the wealth is hidden, and how to get it most conveniently.

In addition, it is reported that the family of Cai Yong, a great Confucian in the sea, may return to the imperial capital next year, and that boss is talented and high, but unfortunately it is too clear and broad, and it is not suitable for officialdom. At this time, please be sure to take it to heart.

In addition, Fengxiao has a good plan, and the affairs of the imperial capital are mainly based on Fengxiao, and Wufeng is responsible for implementation, and the safety of Fengxiao must be guaranteed, is it okay? ”

"No!" Although this master usually doesn't have much of a fight, he has always been targeted in his business. So the two of them don't doubt it.

"Okay, then please two of you, this matter is related to the next development of my Tianma City forces, please be sure to take it to heart." After Ye Teng finished speaking, he handed Chen Ping a storage ring, which contained two Jinyi Wei tokens and 2,000 intermediate Avatar Pills and some of the Junior Avatar Pills.

A few days later, Ye Teng was busy dealing with political copywriting, and the guards came to report:

"Lord, Badao, Shangguan Xue'er, and Yan Ruoyu are waiting for you in the living room." Due to the previous explanation, some friends can directly invite them to the living room to serve tea when they visit, so there is this situation.

"Okay, I'll be right there!" Ye Teng raised his head and commanded.

What are these people doing together today? Is it just for the sake of communication? Well, there shouldn't be anything that makes it too difficult for you, otherwise Ruoyu, this little girl, will be notified in advance.

Forget it, just go and see it.

"When I got up this morning, the magpie outside the window called again, and it turned out to be a few big drivers." Ye Teng was a greeting without nutrition.

"Your magpies are nervous, always calling in autumn and winter!" Shangguan Xue'er gave him a blank look.

"You have something important to do today, please speak up!"

Ye Teng completely regarded the greetings as an indifferent procedure, and after speaking, no matter how others scolded him, he walked straight to his main seat, and after sitting down, he didn't drink tea, and asked directly about business, the feeling of being ignored made Shangguan Xue'er hold her chest in one breath, and she was so sad.

"There's really nothing important today, it's just that I heard that Xue'er came back from the grassland, so I came to visit, and I met Ruoyu who was also there, so Xue'er proposed, just come over together to disturb you." Ba Dao smiled.

"I see, how is the Shangguan City Lord's ranch being built?" I heard that some time ago, the grassland of Xueweiyang was upgraded to a small town, and Shangguan Xue'er went to the grassland to preside over the trial operation of the ranch.

"How else, finally start living the life of a wrangler. It's just that I'm more curious, the lord of Badao City built a city 2,000 miles north of Guangmu, I Xue Weiyang built a city 1,200 miles north of Heyin, Ruoyu's family built a city 600 miles north of Wuquan, where is the grassland city of Tianma City built, why don't I know? Shangguan Xue'er looked like a curious baby, but her words hit the nail on the head, which was the last thing Ye Teng wanted to tell others at the moment.

"It's just a ranch, and after I handed over the village building order to Zhang Liao, I didn't care much about it. If you are really curious, the next time you meet the village chief Zhang Liao, ask him yourself. Ye Teng began to ramble nonsense.

"Really? You let Zhang Liao be the village head, didn't you let Zhang Fei embroider? Sure enough, the attention of Badao and the others was instantly attracted to Zhang Liao, and they no longer cared about the location of the ranch, after all, the historical general Zhang Liao definitely attracted their attention more than the distance of the ranch.

"I don't know if Zhang Fei can embroider, but Zhang Liao definitely has the potential to become an outstanding grassroots cadre, and I am ready to award him a medal for the 38th Red Banner Bearer." Ye Teng's face was relaxed.

"Is Zhang Liao more handsome than you?" A middle-aged man like Badao also cares about Zhang Liao's appearance, which is really speechless.

"He doesn't have as much money as me!" Ye Teng was telling the truth this time.

"Well, if you can make City Lord Ye so unconfident, you should be able to award him the honor of a friend of women." Yan Ruoyu said.

"Am I not confident in my looks?" Ye Teng said.

"What do you have the confidence to divert the subject?" Shangguan Xue'er presented another pair of white eyes.

"Isn't it all about teamwork these days? For example, Brother Gao, I am rich, and Zhang Liaoshuai are called Gao Fushuai together! This is the same as Xue Weiyang. Ye Teng continued to gossip.

"You want Yuyang to hear this, be careful that she kills officials and rebels! Is it the same reason that Xue Weiyang and Gao Fushuai are related? In terms of nonsense, City Lord Ye has definitely been promoted to the rank of first-class masters. ”
