Chapter 402: Rat-throwing Trap
Not only was Lu Zhishen shocked by the great changes in the villages around Liangshan Shuibo, but there were also other beings who were shocked by such earth-shaking changes.
Jeju Governor Jang Sook-ye, is one of them......
The great changes in the Jeju section of Yangshan naturally attracted the attention of Jang Shuye.
Originally, I thought that it was just a small means of Liangshan Village, but what development prospects can the countryside have?
Even if Zhang Shuye thinks that he has good ability, he can't take into account the governance at the village level, at most, he restricts the local landlords and squires not to exploit too much.
That's it, you can also get the local people to call you a 'good official'!
But who expected, Yangsan Honzhai made an extraordinary move, and it only took a few months for the Jeju countryside near Subo to undergo earth-shaking changes.
Supposedly, this was a good thing for Jeju Governor Jang Shuye, but the problem was that there were so many commercial resources, and some of them were divided by the suddenly prosperous villages, and the part that should have been received by the local gentry and the official family was reduced.
Don't look at the prosperity of commerce in the Great Song Dynasty, but the majority of commercial interests have always been in the hands of the official eunuchs and local tyrants, and the people can only touch the corners.
Each powerful family has its own business channels and business networks, and caravans are indispensable.
Recently, the number of businesses in Jeju's major caravans has plummeted, and the business of shops in the city has also been greatly affected, which naturally causes dissatisfaction among their respective families.
But they didn't have the courage to look for Liangshan Village, and even had the courage to have Liangshan people stationed in the countryside to make trouble, so they could only force the prefect Zhang Shuye to come out at night through official means.
In other words, if the development continues according to this situation, I am afraid that the status of Jeju as the commercial center of the state city and the major county towns will be snatched away from the vast number of rural areas.
This kind of thing is absolutely unacceptable to the local eunuch family and landlord Haoqiang.
It's not that they are for the country and the people, but the status of the commercial center is sideways, and they can't eat the lion's share, the main thing is Liangshan's sphere of influence, they can't take the most benefits, it's as simple as that.
Not to mention straw hats, straw mats and straw shoes and other grass products, not to mention reed-woven baskets and mats and other things, but the countryside around Liangshan is a specialty, adopting a small profit but quick turnover business model, and the traditional business channels do not conflict, but for some landlords and gentry who are not strong, they still want to completely monopolize the majority.
There are also daily necessities such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, etc., and I don't know where the production method of Liangshan Benzhai came from, but it was very generous to teach the villagers of major villages.
This is a good thing, and there are workshops of this kind of necessities in one village after another, which directly impact the business of similar workshops in the city, and offend some official eunuch families and landlords Haoqiang.
The situation is not at worst yet, after all, the countryside near Shuibo has not been able to change dramatically for a short time.
If they have the skills to enter the higher-end cloth, porcelain, and even sugar business, I am afraid that they will force the local business forces in Jeju into a corner?
In short, Zhang Shuye, who was under great pressure, simply left the state city, took the little guy to disguise himself as a merchant, and came to the village that had undergone great changes around Shuibo, wanting to see it with his own eyes.
Liangshan Benzhai just used a small trick to force him to be so embarrassed, if he didn't figure out the details, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to sleep.
I heard that the governors of Yunzhou and Puyang already had the intention of using force, and Zhang Shuye was not optimistic about the two colleagues at all.
Do you really think that if the main force of Liangshan is exhausted, the strength of this village will be poor?
As far as he knew, the flower monk Lu Zhishen who had fallen into the grass in Erlong Mountain in Qingzhou before, as well as the walker Wu Song were all in Benzhai, Zhang Shun of Langli Baitiao in Jiangzhou and Ruan's Sanxiong in Shijie Village, and Li Ying, the sky-fighting eagle of Poison Longgang, none of them were easy to provoke.
At least, among the Jeju Forbidden Army, there is no military general who can compare to these guys.
If there is really a conflict, relying on the local forbidden army is simply self-inflicted.
As for the question that Liang Shan had already accepted the imperial court's recruitment and dared to fight with the local forbidden army, Zhang Shuye felt that there was nothing to say.
At this time, the lord of Liangshan Village, but Chai Jin, who came from the Chai royal family, is an existence that is not easy to target today's officials, and it is a dream to want him to be afraid of the majesty of the court!
However, when he came to the village on the edge of the water, he was shocked by the amazing sight here.
The spacious and bright house of red bricks and black tiles was the living standard of ordinary landlords and squires as far as he knew.
The busy workshops and shops, and the endless stream of foreign merchants, really stole the business of their counterparts in the nearby county.
But this is also a helpless thing, in the village workshops and shops, not to mention the lower price, but also more convenient transportation, can be quickly loaded onto cargo ships and transported by water.
What surprised him the most was that there was still a school and a medical center in the village, when did Jeju have so abundant educational and medical resources?
Quietly observed the meeting in the village medical hall and at the entrance of the school, everything was normal, but he was a little uneasy in his heart.
Obviously, all this is the handiwork of the Chai officials who sit in Liangshan Benzhai.
What are the benefits?
Anyway, Uncle Zhang couldn't think of anything famous if he wanted to break his head at night.
Then there is only one purpose: to invite the hearts of the people!
Thinking of this, Uncle Zhang couldn't help but tremble in his heart, as if he had discovered something terrible.
Of course, whether this is the case or not will have to be observed.
As a responsible and responsible local magistrate, in the absence of conclusive evidence, it is impossible for him to casually put a hat on the head of Chai Daguan.
One is not good, if Liangshan Benzhai suddenly jumps back, neither the court nor the local government can stand it.
The annihilation of the 100,000-strong army led by Gao Yuqin is still vivid.
Next, Uncle Zhang walked around the rest of the renovated villages.
The more I look at it, the more frightened I become, and the more I look at it, the more chilling I feel......
Don't look at the villages he walked through, they are scattered in a radius of nearly 100 miles, but they are closely connected and cooperate quite tacitly.
For example, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea and other daily necessities workshops are not available in every village, but according to the situation and environment of the village, each village has one or two workshops in this area, and it can be said that they cooperate tacitly without interfering with each other.
The most important thing is that I don't know how these villages are connected, and I feel that Zhang Shuye is united in the same pace.
There is also a magic thing like a loudspeaker, which is really a good thing to inform the outside world.
At the same time, Zhang Shuye also found a situation that he didn't like very much, the villagers of the renovated village near Shuibo had inexplicably appeared in the trend of martial arts.
Whether they are adults or teenagers, they are obviously quite active in practicing martial arts, and they don't know where they learned to practice martial arts.
After careful inquiry, it turned out that it was Liangshan Benzhai who took the initiative to publicize it, which made him feel very heavy.
Obviously, the hearts of the people in the villages near Shuibo have been returned to Liangshan Village.
The most terrifying thing is that the young and young children in these villages are working hard to exercise their martial arts to strengthen themselves, if one day Liangshan Benzhai greets, I am afraid that there will be a terrifying scene of group response.
Thinking about it, these villagers are all trained in martial arts and have strong bones, I am afraid that with only simple practice, their combat power will be stronger than that of the Jeju local forbidden army!
After wandering around Shuibo for almost half a month, Uncle Zhang returned to the state city with a heavy and even somewhat frightened mood.
He must think about it, how to deal with this expansion of Liangshan Benzhai, and how to snatch the hearts of the people with Liangshan Benzhai?
As for reporting to the imperial court and the current officials, now is not a good time.
He also knew that the main force of Liangshan in Huaixi was basically about to exterminate the Wang Qing bandits, and the next thing was to transfer to Jiangnan to deal with the Fang La bandit army.
Moreover, the main force of Liangshan showed quite strong combat effectiveness, at least except for the elite Western Army, the rest of the local forbidden army did not have the slightest certainty that it would be able to win the battle.
Under such circumstances, it is absolutely impossible to completely fall out with Liangshan Benzhai, at least not because of the contradictions caused by the initiative of the imperial court and the local government.
Otherwise, if the main force of Liangshan is not good, it may be in the battle, and the result is definitely not what the imperial court is willing to see and accept.
If it doesn't work out, the entire Jiangnan will have to fall completely, and even the main force of the elite Western Army may be trapped in Jiangnan and unable to get out.
Originally, the Liangshan army was a bandit army that accepted Zhao'an, and the imperial court's ability to control and restrain it was seriously insufficient, and it was absolutely impossible to act rashly at the moment.
Moreover, at this time, the situation in the Liao State is about to collapse, and it is the time to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun and completely plug the gap in the northern defense line.
Headache!
At this time, Jeju Governor Zhang Shuye was quite a headache.
……
"Did Uncle Zhang leave at night?"
At the same time, in the side hall of Zhongyi Hall in Liangshan Benzhai, Chai Daguan sat on a chair and asked directly.
"I'm gone!"
Zhu Gui stood up straight and replied respectfully.
"Oh, do you see anything, this Governor Zhang is a powerful character!"
Chai Daguan's expression was flat, without the slightest fluctuation, and he asked with a smile: "After wandering around the villages around Shuibo for so long, I must have discovered some situations!" ”
The tone was quite affirmative, but his expression was still calm as usual.
Kidding, with the renovation of the villages around Shuibo basically completed, Liangshan Benzhai has absolutely more control over the area where these villages are located than anyone expected.
Uncle Zhang's big target 'Weifu Private Interview' was discovered at the first time, and received special attention from the secret agents.
After being on guard, Uncle Zhang wanted to see the most important secrets of the village, such as the teleportation charm and Scud, which was impossible.
With a teleporter similar to a telephone, Liangshan Benzhai has a strong control over the villages along the Shuibo River, which is absolutely unimaginable for an old Song bureaucrat like Zhang Shuye.
With the breakthrough of rune technology, the development of Liangshan Benzhai will be rapid and ......
