Chapter 318
Wang Tong has indeed not changed at all, and Li Xiao's evaluation of this guy is a standard court official. It is characterized by a black heart, thick skin, and shamelessness. The three major elements of being an official, this guy has all of them. I have to say that the profession of being an official still requires some professional talent.
"See the big handsome!" Wang Tong learned the name of the big guy to Li Xiao, and knelt when he met.
"This is not Mr. Wang, hurry up! Li Xiao can't afford to kneel on your knees! Li Xiao also obeyed, and a young man knelt down to be a young man, and he didn't have the slightest mental burden.
"The marshal doesn't dare to say that, the villain is now just a prisoner in the army. Under the wings of the handsome, it is rare to ask for two meals and one night. Unexpectedly, Inspector Mao gave the villain a county official to do. The villain knew that this was the commander's order. Otherwise, Inspector Mao knows who the villain is, and the villain has thanked the marshal for his grace here. In the future, the marshal has orders, come in the water, go in the fire, and my Wang Tong has no words. ”
After Wang Tong finished speaking, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed "bang" and "bang". The floor was made of marble tiles, and the sound of my head smashing on it sounded sore. This guy isn't kowtowing, he's fucking running away and committing suicide.
Li Xiao hurriedly scooped up Wang Tong, a very good person, don't knock him to death.
"I'm here for you on an errand!" Li Xiao picked up Wang Tong and threw it on the sofa.
"Da Shuai Dan has orders, my king will come to the fire in the water...... Wang Tong was about to slip out of the ground again.
"That's it! Come on! Don't keep tossing these two sentences, just sit here and listen honestly. I'll have something to ask you in a moment! Li Xiao hurriedly held down the goods again, and he really couldn't stand this.
"Good Xuanfu general soldier, why did you fall to this step. How did you get mixed up? Li Xiao decided to start with the family first, take advantage of the spirit of this goods to relax, and mention the affairs of Liaodong.
"Hey......! It's not that he was killed by Wei Zhongxian. When he was in power, I built a shrine for him in Xuanfu. At that time, in order to please Wei Zhongxian, he repaired more luxuriously. In order to let Gonggong Wei know, the name of the villain was specially engraved on the merit tablet. Dashuai, you know, at that time, not only our Xuanfu, but also the governors of the whole Ming Dynasty were in the Xiusheng Temple.
Whoever dares not to repair, this official will not be able to do it.
But the new emperor ascended the throne, and Wei Zhongxian became a traitor from the age of 9,000. The person who engraved his name on the merit tablet at the beginning, none of them ran away! When he arrived in the capital, the villain scattered all his family wealth, and then sentenced him to Liaodong. If it weren't for the handsome care, our family would have ...... long ago! Perhaps it was said that when it came to sadness, Wang Tong cried "woo" and "woo".
"Oh, I see!" Li Xiao nodded. Wang Tong is indeed not to blame for this matter, who dared not to give Wei Zhongxian the Shrine in those years. That is, there were frequent wars in Liaodong at that time, otherwise he would not be able to escape here.
"If the civil affairs of Liaodong are handed over to you, how can you quickly lead these hundreds of thousands of people in Liaodong to become self-sufficient, and you have to feed Yuan Chonghuan's army and the army of Shanhaiguan?"
"Uh......! Villain......! Villain......! Wang Tong's brain was running rapidly.
"Don't worry, think about it. Say whatever you want! Li Xiao pushed the teacup in front of Wang Tong.
"Liaodong has achieved self-reliance in the past two years, and a large number of Tartars are blocked by the Jinzhou defense line. Small strands of tartars, there is nothing to worry about at all. Public security is guaranteed!
Last year, the villain organized the villagers of various villages to dry some shrimp and squid and sell them to Guanzhong, Shanxi Province for a lot of silver. The people over there have never seen these things, and the worthless things in our country are all valuable goods when they get there. The kelp that we feed pigs in Liaodong is the most liked by the people over there. Buy a pound of dried kelp, and you can get a big pot when you go home. Whether it's a pickle or a stewed pork rib.
Relying on these, the villain county government not only did not lose money at the end of the year, but had a balance of more than 1,000 taels of silver. also paid more than 10,000 catties of military rations to Yuan Dashuai......! ”
"Well, you go on." Li Xiao nodded, there are still deficits in many places this year. He also had to pay for it with silver, not only to be self-sufficient, but also to give Yuan Chonghuan more than 10,000 catties of food. I have to say that this is a good political achievement. Mao Wenlong is right, this is a guy who can find money.
"But this thing can be done in a county. If all of Liaodong do this, it will be more than worth the loss. To do this kind of business, it is enough to feed 30,000 or 20,000 people, but it is simply impossible to feed hundreds of thousands of people.
If you want Liaodong to become self-sufficient as soon as possible, the villain thinks that the most important thing is two. One is a farmer, and the other is a businessman.
Farming, the corn and potatoes you bring in from overseas are good things. After the trial planting last year, the yield per mu of potatoes actually reached 1,000 catties. Although corn is slightly inferior to potatoes, it is no problem to beat a few hundred catties. Potatoes are also vegetables, and corn is pure food. After these two things are planted, no one will go hungry in Liaodong within a year.
Business! This place in Liaodong is bitter and cold, but it is better than the abundance of seafood. Villains sell some seafood, this is all a trail. The most profitable thing is actually ......! "Wang Tong's eyes are looking left and right, and if he doesn't steal, he looks like a thief.
"Go on, it's okay to say anything today." Li Xiao immediately understood and encouraged Wang Tong.
"Handsome! This Liaodong is close to the sea, and the biggest profit is of course Haiyan! In our Liaodong, we use seawater to dry salt, except for hiring some manpower, there is no other expenditure at all. Calculated as a no-brainer.
But when it comes to Shanxi, Shaanxi, and even Gansu, the salt in the Western Regions is expensive. It is said that ten times the profit is less, and a hundred times the profit is not a problem. The villain once served in Shaanxi and Gansu, and the people there ate mineral salt and well salt. Some well salts are also poisonous, and people will swell all over the body when they eat them. Every year, people eat well salt and eat death! If only the big man could sell salt there......! Wang Tong glanced at Li Xiao and stopped talking.
Trafficking in illicit salt! This is indeed a lucrative business, and many chaebols in Jiangnan have made a fortune by trafficking in illicit salt. It seems that Qian Qianyi and his family also relied on this thing to make a fortune. In order to traffic illicit salt, there is also an existence called the Salt Gang. It is said that the power is huge, and the only ones who can compete with it are the Cao gang who play logistics.
The profits are huge, and so are the risks. Because the "Da Ming Law" clearly stipulates that trafficking in illicit salt exceeds 50 catties, and it will be decided. Since the Hongwu period, the salt industry has been a standard state-owned key enterprise. The people in charge are either the emperor's relatives or the emperor's confidants and eunuchs. I want to do the illegal salt business and traffic into the customs, but there are many difficulties. It's impossible, buy all the prefectures and counties on the road.
There are so many pairs of eyes staring at him in the court, once he is caught, the consequences will be ......!
Seeing that Li Xiao was obviously moved, Wang Tong walked to the top of the map and pointed to the Khalkha Mongolian steppe. "Dashuai has a good relationship with the Mongols, so you can ......!" He gestured with his hand and continued: "The villain once served in Shaanxi and Gansu, and he was the chief soldier of the Xuanfu. Some people have also been promoted, and now many of these people are in charge of the passes near the Great Wall......! ”
"Oh!" Li Xiao's eyes lit up. This product is right, you can take the Mongolian route, and it is nothing to divide the grid day map for a piece of the pie. After all, the profits of illegal salt are huge, and besides, the illegal salt is sold by the Mongols, even if the court finds out, there is nothing they can do about it.
He was about to set up the third division, and Chen Hailong was made to run mice in the Shandong treasury. has such a way to make a fortune, Li Xiao will never let it go.
"You have to rot in your stomach about this matter, and you are not allowed to find someone to dry salt in private. After you go back, you will be the new commander of the grain and grass capital of Liaodong Province. Of course, this is only an official position on the surface. In fact, the civil affairs of the entire Liaodong are under your management.
You should quickly promote the cultivation of corn and potatoes, and at the same time encourage the villagers to raise pigs, chickens, ducks, geese, sheep and other poultry. Of course, you can also do the business of selling seafood. There are other legal businesses that you can do as well. Got it? ”
"No! The villain thanks the great kindness of the handsome! Wang Tong said that he wanted to kneel again.
