Public opinion propaganda is also a position, and if you don't occupy the enemy, you will occupy it.

I didn't feel much about listening to this sentence before, but now it sounds so fucking correct.

If a child is a blank sheet of paper, then some adults with simple IQs are actually not as good as a blank sheet of paper. The IQ is too low, and the brain is so simple that it can't be repeated, so that their brains can't process complex information. This is manifested in the fact that they believe what others say, regardless of whether the lie is reasonable or not.

was sold and paid for the number of people, these are the people who are talking about.

Li Xiao bent down and said to the little girl with a smile: "What did your father tell you?" ”

"Daddy said, the Liao soldiers are here. Those landlords don't give the court food anymore, so our Cao gang will be hungry. Daddy and I were hungry and grabbed things. He was caught by the Liao army and killed under the city wall. The little girl's face was full of resentment.

Li Xiao shook his head helplessly, millions of people in Jiangnan were fooled by these words. This will actively be the enemy of the imperial court, and the source of the turmoil in Jiangnan is also here.

In the eyes of these people, the old days were passable. It's just that the Liao army came, and life became difficult. Therefore, the culprit is the Liao army.

The information is blocked, and they don't know that there is enough grain in the north to raise pigs, and they don't need the grain in the south at all. If there is no grain, there is naturally no need to transport it.

As for the freight market, it has long been replaced by vigorously developed sea vessels.

Along the coastline, a string of marina ports was built. The throughput capacity is far from being comparable to those small boats running in the canals. To put it bluntly, that's the result of the competition.

"Give them some money and settle them down." Li Xiao glanced at Ah San, the leper who was being hung up in the distance.

In times of turmoil, it is often easy to breed such lawbreakers. For them, you must not be polite. Those who committed minor crimes were arrested and worked as coolies, and if they had a chance to survive, I believe they would never dare to be traitors again.

If the crime is serious, it can only be to use life to be a baby. Tell future generations that the end of breaking the law is miserable, and it is better not to commit a crime. Taizu also said that he would cure the disease and save people after punishing him.

The local officials who came in a hurry stood in the distance and watched Li Xiao in horror and did not dare to come. It is estimated that these guys have never seen such a big official in their lives!

"These people are so rampant, there must be someone in the local area to support them. Find it out and give it to the people. Li Xiao instructed Luo Yangxing.

Sometimes the people are bullied by these ruffian bullies, but they don't resent them in their hearts, but resents the inaction of the government. It is necessary to kill these people, along with the corrupt officials who bend the law, so that the common people can breathe a sigh of relief.

"No!" Luo Yangxing glanced at the officials, and his eyes were like wolves looking at a flock of sheep. Perhaps to him, those people were lambs to the slaughter.

"Handsome! Hundreds of thousands of people in the Cao Gang have relied on this Grand Canal for generations. Now that the financial route has been cut off, the chaos is not something that can be solved by punishing a few corrupt officials. ”

"I know! But these are hundreds of thousands of people, not dozens of people. They run boats all year round, and they don't know any other crafts at all, where do you let me settle in for a while? Li Xiao shook his head helplessly, not everyone can keep up with the changes in the new situation, and those who can't keep up will be eliminated. The laws of nature have always been so cruel.

Li Xiao came to the side of the canal, and the famous Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is actually not wide. The section of the river in front of me is almost 20 meters wide. It's far from the majestic river in my impression! It is this canal that has maintained the transportation of grain from the south to the north for thousands of years, providing grain for the dynasties that have been in the north for generations.

For thousands of years, grain has been transported from the south to the north. Who would have thought that one day there would be more grain in the north than in the south. Hundreds of thousands of people, how can this be settled.

Walking along the road today, I saw how difficult it was for the Cao Gang along the canal. It was the gathering of the autumn harvest, but there were still people digging wild vegetables. The Qinglou industry is extremely developed, and many of the young men in the shops have no wages, and their wages are only three meals a day for the shopkeeper.

This is still now, if you put it 20 years ago, it would have been just two meals a day.

"Luo Yang! Take me to meet the big boss of the Cao Gang. "There was a burst of hysteria on the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and Li Xiao decided to go to the big leader of the Cao Gang. If we can negotiate with him, hundreds of thousands of Cao Gang members will not become chaotic people, which is very important for the stability of Jiangnan.

The rudder of the Cao Gang has nothing to do with the word style. There are no more than three courtyards in front and back, and they are all blue brick houses. In the concierge sat an old man with gray hair and beard, who walked and walked hunched and could not speak.

Huang Yuesheng, the big leader of the Cao Gang, stood in front of the door with a few people, waiting for Li Xiao's arrival. Li Xiao came to Germany with the 1st Army Division this time.

The strong military pressure has made them lose the heart to resist. simply opened the middle door, dismissed the gang, and only brought a dozen people to greet Li Xiao.

"Huang Gang Leader!" Li Xiao walked to the door and hugged his fist at Huang Yuesheng. He admired Huang Yuesheng's semi-surrendering attitude!

The Cao Gang arose from the people, if Huang Yuesheng was determined to oppose Li Xiao, he would escape into the people and not show his head. There are hundreds of thousands of Cao Gang covering, and it is not easy to catch him. Since you dare to stand up, you want to talk. This is a good sign, and good communication is an effective way to solve problems.

Of course, there are more effective ways, but Li Xiao is not ready to use them. That's too bloody, not to mention that these hundreds of thousands of people are all Ming people. If he really did that, Li Xiaoke would really become a butcher.

"Dashuai!" When Huang Yuesheng saw Li Xiao, he immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed. As the leader of the Cao Gang, of course he knew Li Xiao's energy. The commander of the million-strong Liao army of the Ming Dynasty was shocked by the order, and millions of warriors rushed to die. was able to take the initiative to come to the door to talk to him today, and Huang Yuesheng even had a little hallucination.

"Huang Gang Master, please get up." Huang Yuesheng was polite, and Li Xiao was equally polite. Stretched out his hand to scoop Huang Yuesheng up, and the two of them walked into the Cao Gang Hall side by side.

The hall of the Cao Gang Hall is very large, but it looks very shabby. The pillars in the room were mottled with paint and hadn't been repainted in years. The table of the eight immortals was also lame and was supported by a stick.

"Sir, please take a seat!" Huang Yuesheng respectfully invited Li Xiao to take a seat, and Li Xiao stared at the chair very carefully for a while. He's afraid that the chair is also three-legged!

There were only two chairs in the huge hall, and it was obvious that only Li Xiao and Huang Yuesheng had seats today. If it weren't for the dignity of the Cao Gang, Huang Yuesheng wouldn't even want a seat.

The courtyard of the triple has been taken over by the Li Xiao guards, and these boys have done everything for Li Xiao's safety. On the roof, even heavy machine guns were mounted. Outside the town, there was a regiment of Liao troops ready to attack at any time. If Li Xiao wanted to get rid of the Cao Gang, there would not be a living person in Shiqiao Town today.

However, getting rid of Huang Yuesheng can be regarded as a complete break with the Cao Gang. No one will believe in the imperial court anymore, and the turmoil in Jiangnan will bloom everywhere. The first division should not want to go to the northwest, the vast sea of the people's war is enough to drown these tens of thousands of people.

Even if the turmoil is quelled, the number of dead people is unknown, and the vitality of the provinces south of the Yangtze River is greatly damaged. It's not ten or twenty years, and I don't want to recover at all.

Li Xiao is not a Tartar soldier who invaded Jiangnan, and he can't do such a thing as Yangzhou for three days and Jiading Ten Massacres.

didn't say hello to Huang Yuesheng, Li Xiao sat on the top with a golden knife.

Huang Yuesheng sat down next, but only put his butt on the chair. I don't know if I want to stand up and fight hard with Li Xiao at any time, or stand up and talk back.

Li Xiao didn't speak, and no one dared to speak. The hall was crowded with dozens of people, and the scene was a little awkward for a while.

Huang Yuesheng was practicing the horseback riding and squatting crotch pose with both hands on his knees, and he looked very profound, and when he practiced a stick of incense, his face had become as red as a monkey's buttocks. It is estimated that after practicing for a while, you will be able to cultivate into the Three Flowers Gathering Top Five Qi Dynasty Yuan Divine Skill.

"Don't be so restrained, let's just talk casually today." Seeing that Huang Yuesheng's brain began to sweat, Li Xiao shook his head helplessly, this thing was too nervous.

Huang Yuesheng roared past 10,000 grass and mud horses in his heart, his mother's son is now talking to you with the determination to die, you say let's talk about it casually? The Cao Gang Headquarters is full of heavily armed soldiers inside and out, what the hell are you calling to talk casually?

"Handsome! Cao Yun has been stopped for more than a year, and my Cao Gang is already destitute. The lives of the people are miserable, there are those who sell their children and daughters, and there are those who have left their hometowns. There are even people who can't survive, and there are those who commit suicide by throwing themselves into the water. Hundreds of thousands of people in the Cao Gang, please have mercy on the handsome. They...... They are all the people of the Ming Dynasty! Huang Yuesheng didn't say a word, opened his robe and knelt.

Li Xiao scratched his head, to be honest, he didn't have a good way to settle these hundreds of thousands of people.

Picked up Huang Yuesheng and sat down with him: "I know the hardships of the Cao Gang, but you also have to understand the difficulties of the imperial court." You hundreds of thousands of people, the imperial court really can't settle them for a while. I have two places to go, and I don't know if you want to or not. ”

"But by the command of the commander! As long as I can live, my Cao Gang disciples will definitely thank the court and the great kindness of the handsome. Huang Yuesheng said, and had the intention of kneeling down.

Li Xiao originally thought that this so-called boss of the Cao Gang should be an unruly hero, but he didn't expect that he would be a kowtow worm who kneels at every turn. But that's fine, at least this Huang Yuesheng looks a little easier to speak.

"This one! The old and weak can go to Guanzhong and Henan, where disasters have been suffered a few years ago, and the population has plummeted, and the land is rich. When you get there, the rulers will distribute the land to you. It is the policy of the imperial court that you will be exempted from any taxes for the first year. From the second year, the tax is paid in half and does not pay until three years later.

This two! He Kegang, the prefect of Yizhou, sent a letter, saying that there were few people in Yizhou. Moreover, rubber plantations, sugar cane plantations and other places in Yizhou are short of manpower. If you are willing to go to Yizhou, the official family will also give you land. And for five years, there will be no tax at all. After five years and ten years, the tax is only paid at half price.

These three! There is a place called Xinjiapo overseas, which is a key place for land and water. I, Daming, am encouraging immigrants there, and when you get there, you will not only be exempt from taxes for ten years. Within 30 years, the tax will only need to be paid 30%.

Of course, if you want to keep running the boat. You can also go to Wuchang and Hankou, where the Yangtze River is the thoroughfare of the nine provinces of land and water. In the future, if things from inland provinces want to be transported to the coast, they need to be transported by ship on the Yangtze River.

But if you go there, you are not exempt from taxes. The income benefit can only be reduced by half in the first year, and the tax must be paid every year from the second year onwards. You can discuss with the deployment, they can go wherever they want, and the commander will not interfere. ”

Li Xiao is also temporary!

The Cao Gang is an organized group, and it will not be easy to put it anywhere. The best way to do this is to break up the Cao Gang, as long as they keep their numbers small, so that they can integrate into the local society as soon as possible.

The policy given by Li Xiao is very subtle, and the farther he goes, the better the preferential policy. This is a disguised encouragement for the Cao Gang to go to sea!

Cao Gang is an organized group, and this kind of community is most suitable for overseas development. Although this place in Xinjiapo is hotter, it is rich in products and land resources. Not to mention the hundreds of thousands of Cao Gang disciples, even if a million people emigrate, they can be completely settled.

Tropical fish are abundant, and the Cao Gang immigrated there, so even if they eat fish, they can't go hungry.

Sure enough, Huang Yuesheng thought for a while.

"Handsome! If I go to sea, I have a lot of children. How can so many people be accommodated! Besides, there are many natives overseas, and if we are bullied overseas, who will call the shots for us? ”

Huang Yuesheng really has a heart for going to sea, as long as he goes overseas. He Huang Yuesheng is the natural leader, and overseas, the influence of the Ming court is far less than in Jiangnan. He can be the emperor of the soil generously, and no one can control him.

"The Huang Gang Leader can rest assured that there is a lot of land in Xinjiapo. When the Cao Gang disciples got there, land was never a problem. Li Xiao patted his chest and packed the ticket.

To build Xinjiapo City, Hong Chengchou almost captured all the natives who could be caught nearby. People die every day on the construction site, and those who are tired are thrown directly into the sea. So much so that there is a bay in which sharks are stationed all year round. Even the huge saltwater crocodiles are waiting to eat the dead by the sea. This saves you the trouble of disposing of the corpse!

The new home of the later generations, the city of Po, has millions of inhabitants. There's no reason why you can't live in hundreds of thousands of Cao Gang!

As for the local natives, the Huang gang leader can rest assured. The fierce natives there were either killed or captured to build a new home. If your people are bullied or killed by the natives, you can do with them as you please. I can also give you some weapons to defend yourself, and even if a large number of natives attack you, you can turn to the local garrison.

Generally speaking, as long as one of our Chinese people dies, it needs to be repaid with the lives of ten natives. ”
