Chapter 0208 Minister, Congratulations to the World!
After only a few days, the edict of Liu Bang, the son of heaven, was officially issued.
——The prince was pro-army by the captain of the third department of the Southern Army, accompanied by his maternal uncle Lu Shizhi, and personally escorted by Qu Cheng Hou Worm to Fengpei to worship his ancestors!
Corresponding to this overt edict were several other personnel transfers that were only announced among the courtiers and carried out covertly.
Quzhou Hou Lishang and Xinwu Hou Jin She, in the name of 'appeasing the hearts of the Liang people' and 'reorganizing the rule of the Liang officials', went east to Hangu and went to Suiyang, the capital of Liang;
Yingyin Hou Guanying and Longshu Hou Zhouzao, the two of them, were appointed as envoys for Liu Bang, the Son of Heaven, and went out of the customs with the general Flying Fox Commander Thorn Puhou Chai Wu, and went to Flying Fox to inspect the daily drills of the Flying Fox Commander on behalf of Liu Bang, the Son of Heaven, as well as garrison matters;
Zhang Cang, Marquis of Beiping, Marquis Wang Ling of Anguo, and Marquis Chen Bi of Boyang, accompanied Fu Kuan, Marquis of Yangling, who had been appointed, out of the customs and went to Handan for a temporary stay; As soon as Chen Feng was conferred the head, he went to Jinyang, the capital of the dynasty, to prepare for the 'fourth son of the emperor, Liu Heng, to take the country' in the near future.
For these three seemingly reasonable personnel transfers, outsiders can't see anything wrong.
But in fact, in the entire Chang'an court, there is no one who can't understand what kind of mystery is hidden in this Dao personnel transfer.
——Li Shang and Jin She, who went to the Liang State, one is the right Xiangguo of the current dynasty, and the other is the second-in-command of the current military second only to Tai Lieutenant Zhou Bo: General Che Cai!
The two people with such a lofty status are not unable to bear the burden of 'stabilizing the Liang country'.
It's just that just 'appeasing people's hearts', using top military giants at the level of Right Xiangguo and General Che Cai is somewhat like killing chickens.
The real situation is: with these two people in Suiyang, if Liu Ying wants to mobilize tens of thousands of county troops in Liang State, it is just a matter of warrant!
As for Guan Ying and Zhou Zao, they followed Jianpu Hou Chai Wu to Flying Fox, which is even more nonsense.
- Captain Flying Fox, but now the Han family only has a complete cavalry captain department and is very experienced in anti-cavalry operations!
And this army is completely composed of the only army that won the battle of Han-Hun Pingcheng that year-Yanbei Warriors!
Such a heroic army with a glorious history (experienced the Battle of Pingcheng) and vital to the northern defense of the Han Dynasty, not to mention Guan Ying and Zhou Zao, even top fathers such as Xiao He and Cao Shen are not very qualified to 'inspect on behalf of the Son of Heaven'.
Therefore, these three people, including Flying Fox Captain Chai Wu, were 'going to Flying Fox' on the surface, but in fact, they were still just looking for an excuse to go out of the customs and wait for Liu Ying's summons in a remote place.
And the most important of these three appointments is undoubtedly the last one, namely: Zhang Cang, Marquis of Beiping, Marquis of Anguo, Wang Ling, and Marquis Chen Bi of Boyang, went to Handan under the leadership of Fu Kuan, the acting prime minister!
What 'temporarily stationed in Handan, waiting for Chen Xuan's defeat', what 'preparing for the acting king Liu Heng' is all false!
These four people went to Handan, basically for Liu Ying, and divided the soldiers and horses in Handan Pass to go south, so as to be the main force of Liu Ying to pacify Yingbu!
In this way, coupled with Liu Ying, the crown prince who 'returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors', the entire counterinsurgency army has its own 'vest'.
As for the mobilization of troops and horses from the rest of the vassal states, as well as the mobilization of grain and grass in the Chang'an court, Liu Ying was not left behind.
——On the fourth day when Liu Bang officially issued an edict ordering Liu Ying to return to his hometown to worship his ancestors, Liu Bang, the son of heaven who was raised in Changle Palace, received a joint performance from Liu Fei, King of Qi, Liu Jiao, King of Chu, and Liu Jia, King of Jing!
After learning from the music that almost no grain flowed into Guanzhong this year, which had led to grain in Jing, Chu, Qi and other coastal vassal states, Liu Bang, the son of heaven, immediately summoned Liu Ying, the crown prince who had previously set off an action to 'eliminate grain merchants' in Guanzhong.
In the end, the crown prince Liu Ying gave a clear answer: 3 million stones of grain were transferred from Shaofu and transported to Xingyang Aocang, hundreds of miles east of Hangu Pass.
Upon hearing the news, the three kings of Jing, Chu and Qi were overjoyed, and after a brief discussion, they decided: each sent more than 10,000 soldiers and horses from their own countries, led by Cao Shen, the prime minister of Qi, to Xingyang to receive the grain and rice allocated by Shaofu!
At this point, the response measures made by the Chang'an court against the 'Huainan Wang Yingbu raising troops' have been completely deployed, and there is no trace of 'forcing Huainan' to speak.
When the entire court was secretly happy about this situation, Liu Ying, the crown prince who was about to 'return to his hometown to worship his ancestors', appeared in the Prime Minister's Mansion between Shangguanli and the arsenal······
·
"Honored by the family."
"The grain and grass needed by the army have been sent to Ao Cang in the name of 'allocating to Jing, Chu, and Qi to relieve the shortage of rice and grain', with a total of three million stones, which will be used for the army in April!"
Hearing that Shaofu Yangchengyan made a report with a serious face, Liu Ying only nodded slightly, and then moved his gaze to Xiao He on the other side.
Seeing this, Xiao He didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly bowed his hand to Liu Ying.
"The bows, feathers, arrows, spears, halberds and other ordnance blades allocated by the ministers from the arsenal have also been sent to Aocang by the Shaofu and secretly transported to Xingyang."
"When the Marquis of Pingyang leads the troops of Jing, Chu, and Qi to take it, you can get ······"
From Xiao He's mouth, he heard exactly that 'weapons and ordnance were also sent to Xingyang together', Liu Ying only took a deep breath, and immediately bowed his hand to Xiao He and Yangchengyan.
"In recent days, I have worked hard and worked hard in Xiao Xiang and Yang Shaofu."
After expressing a little gratitude to the two, Liu Ying's serious look on her face did not slow down.
Today, Liu Ying came to the Prime Minister's Mansion and even called Shaofu Yangchengyan, naturally not to ask about logistics support.
Xiao He and Yang Chengyan made a report on logistics issues, which was only mentioned in passing.
The real purpose of Liu Ying's coming here was already clear when Liu Ying handed over the greeting post and asked Xiao He to call Yangcheng Yan.
Obviously, the two of them also know Liu Ying's intentions.
The three of them were silent for only a moment, and then they saw Yang Chengyan take the lead in getting up, pointing to a large wooden box not far away, and then took out a roll of bamboo slips with a thick arm from his arms, and bowed his hand to Liu Ying slightly.
"This is the order of the minister's family, and the inventory is calculated to March, and the income from the official grain and rice of the Shaofu government."
Saying a word softly, Yang Chengyan spread out the bamboo slip in his hand, sent it to Liu Ying, and cleared his throat a little.
"On the orders of the family, the Shaofu carried out the government of grain and rice, and used the money to get the grain and warehouse of the grain merchant Mijia."
"By summer and June, Shaofu had a total of 2,146 granaries for storing 100,000 stones, of which 172 were huge warehouses that could store 500,000 stones; In addition, there are thousands of small warehouses that can store grain on 10,000 stones and 100,000 stones. ”
"In order to get nearly 10,000 granaries, Shaofu consumed half a tael of Qin, a total of more than 140,000 yuan, and the same is true for three baht dollars."
"This Qin half more than 240,000 yuan, all of which are the rice saved by the grain merchants of Shaofu, and the income from the sale of the people in Guanzhong; and the three baht that was saved in front of the Shaofu was also spent······"
Hearing Yang Chengyan say this, Liu Ying nodded slowly, and between her eyebrows, she only looked relieved.
The three-baht money, especially the three-baht pod money that Shaofu was cast by the order of his father Liu Bang, is undoubtedly a heart disease that Liu Ying has not dared to forget for a long time!
-- The central financial institutions have more than 100,000 scrap coins, and they can't spend them at all!
Not only that, but there is still a steady stream of real coins (Qin Banliang) and smelting them into this kind of waste coins that can't be spent!
Such an operation of self-destruction of the Great Wall is impossible for anyone in power who is not sick in his brain to turn a blind eye.
And 'buying the granary in the hands of grain merchants with three baht of scrap currency' is undoubtedly an excellent plan for Liu Ying to 'sell scrap money' carefully created for Shaofu.
This year, the entire Guanzhong grain merchants joined hands to raise grain prices, and the Changling Tian clan's case of 'assassinating the prince' was lowered.
- Liu Yingdu was assassinated for this matter, Shaofu bought a granary, and he also knew that he would give half of Qin and half taels, instead of directly using 'copy', which is already very good!
As for the remaining half of the Han and half taels, it should be the money to buy life on Guanzhong Grain's 'reform of evil and return to righteousness'.
In this way, Shaofu was able to get rid of this batch of hot potatoes called 'three baht money', in exchange for a number of granaries that can be seen and touched, and use these granaries to store the grain that belonged to the grain merchants, and finally sell it to the people.
I have to say: In the matter of the grain official camp, Shaofu really made a lot of money.
Although the people of Guanzhong did not directly benefit, the flat grain prices caused by the official operation of grain and rice also indirectly alleviated the survival pressure of the people in Guanzhong.
Starting from this year's autumn harvest, the people of Guanzhong will also bid farewell to the past, and the middlemen who often double the price will only have to endure the grain preservation cost of 'one out of ten' in Shaofu.
As for the three-baht money flowing into the hands of grain merchants from Shaofu, it will basically not have much impact on the financial order of the Han family.
——The three-baht coin has been around for so many years, and after the large-scale melting of Shaofu, it has long had no credit and purchasing power~
If it weren't for this, Shaofu wouldn't have been sitting on tens of thousands of baht in the past, but it couldn't spend it at all, shouting all day long that 'the interior is empty'.
Liu Ying is very sure: the three baht money that the grain merchant obtained from Shaofu by 'selling the granary' has only one way to deal with it except to destroy it.
- Keep it as a souvenir.
"Good."
Nodding with reassurance, he saw Liu Ying nodding at Xiao He and Yang Chengyan respectively.
"Going out alone this time, and returning to Beijing again, it should be a matter of next winter, and even the beginning of spring."
"However, this autumn's harvest is not far away, and the matter of the government-run grain and rice in the Shaofu government is especially the top priority of 'storing grain on behalf of the people'!"
"Lonely, Shaofu must be cautious, don't make a mistake in this matter!"
Full of grim explanations, Liu Ying did not forget to turn her head sideways and bow her hand to Xiao He.
"The grain and rice of the Shaofu government are related to the emptiness-reality of the government treasury, the stability of the society, and the national politics of shaking!"
"If the Shaofu is unsuccessful, I hope that Xiao Xiang will ······help him for a while."
Hearing Liu Ying's words, Xiao He only chuckled and lowered his head, and bowed to Liu Ying.
"It's important to talk about it."
"This, but the duty of the minister······"
Seeing that Xiao He agreed so boldly, Liu Ying only smiled gently, and then looked at Xiao He as if he had pointed something.
"Lonely news, Xiao Xiang's youngest son, Xiao Yan, has always liked martial arts?"
As if saying something casually, Liu Ying chuckled and lowered her head.
"If you can go to the same thing as Xiao Xiangzi and Ping Yingbu's rebellion, it will be worthwhile to go out of Hangu alone······"
Listening to Liu Ying's meaningful words, Xiao He immediately came to his senses, but because Yangcheng was there, he did not give a direct reply.
"Winning the love of the family is a blessing for dogs······"
"Only a few days ago, the dog seemed to be slightly sick, whether he could go to Huainan with his family, minister, I don't dare to say for sure······"
Seeing Xiao He's reaction like this, Liu Yingzi also smiled knowingly, and immediately nodded to Xiao He.
"That being the case, lonely, I will wait for Xiao Xiang's good news."
Listening to Liu Ying and Xiao He's words, they reached an agreement on 'promoting the heirs of the Xiao family', and Yang Chengyan's eyes couldn't help but swell with a little envy.
Seeing Yang Chengyan's complexion in his eyes, Liu Ying was not in a hurry.
- No matter what, Xiao He is also the first marquis of the founding of the country, and Yangcheng Yan has not been named the marquis of Che so far.
Although for Liu Ying, bringing a boy from the Yang family to talk to him by his side is just a gesture, Liu Ying can also talk to Yang Chengyan in private, not in front of Xiao He.
After making an agreement with Xiao He, 'I will help your son Lao Wuxun, and you will help me keep an eye on the grain and rice of the Shaofu government', Liu Ying turned his head again and motioned for Yangchengyan to continue.
——The main achievements of the grain official camp, Yang Chengyan hasn't had time to talk about it yet!
Seeing Liu Ying's signal, Yang Chengyan also hurriedly withdrew his jealous gaze from Xiao He's smiling face.
Slightly lonely lowered his head, looking at the second half of the bamboo slip in his hand, Rao looked at this string of numbers more than once, and Yang Chengyan still couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva!
"On the orders of the family, Shaofu has been buying grain from the grain merchant Mijia in the spring since March, and he has been tired of grain and rice, more than 62 million stones!"
"In March, Shaofu has sold grain to all parts of Guanzhong, a total of nearly 30 million stones, and a total of 6 million yuan!"
The tone was full of excitement, and Yang Chengyan's face also turned red in a moment.
"Although this money is 6 million, more than half of it is all kinds of miscellaneous money, and all of them should be prepared to pay the grain merchants, but the Shaofu does not spend any money on grain, and gets nearly 10,000 granaries."
"And today, Shaofu still has to store more than 30 million stones; It is only more than two months away from the autumn harvest, and before the autumn harvest, the people of Guanzhong need at most 20 million stone of grain and rice. ”
"More than 10 million stones, one can be used for the army of the family to go out to quell the rebellion, the second can be lost to Handan, for the army of the Marquis of Wuyang, and the third can be entered into the treasury, and make up for half a year old, the courtiers and officials lack half of the Lu!"
Speaking of this, Yang Chengyan took a deep breath before calming down his excitement a little, and immediately looked at Liu Ying, only revealing the reverence of the five bodies.
"When the year is next year, Shaofu will have to get the whole camp to close the rice and grain affairs, and the internal money will be able to get tens of millions of stones from Jia Mi!"
"If you are three years old and two years old, you can build Chang'an without the need for money and grain from the treasury!"
"This, all rely on the family's efforts to disagree with the public, and the system of the official camp of grain and rice is there!"
"The family promotes such good governance to solve the void of the treasury, and the ministers congratulate the world on !!"
