Jingzhou is located south of the Qinling Mountains, and the flood season and agricultural time arrive earlier than Guanzhong. When Li Tai returned to Jingzhou, farming in the countryside was busy.

Some of the land that has been abandoned for a long time has also been cultivated diligently. Many of the ruins of long-abandoned villages have been cleared, and some temporary shacks and felt tents have been erected in their place, all inhabited by newly naturalized people.

Soon after Li Tai entered Jingzhou, he successively issued various decrees such as advising farmers and expanding households, aiming to revive the people's livelihood and economy in the Nanyang Basin.

In the beginning, the people were often quite rusty because they did not learn the law, but with the passage of time and the steady implementation of the decrees, the content of these decrees has gradually become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and has become an important order order to maintain stability in the northern region today.

Li Tai returned to the town this time, and also brought a lot of personnel from Guanzhong. Last year, he was already encouraging the Qumeng villagers to invest the resources they had in Jingzhou, and he himself transferred a lot of personnel resources to it.

Although these investments have not yet seen significant returns, a series of victories in the second half of last year have given people great confidence and stimulated the pace of additional investment.

In the ancient social environment, the large-scale flow of personnel and resources across regions could be achieved either by forcibly relocating with the power of the state, or by frequent natural and man-made disasters forcing people to leave their homes.

As for the large-scale movement of people in a short period of time based on the pursuit of profits, it is not common, because the level of development of the industrial and commercial environment in ancient times was not high enough, and of course, it is also due to the strict control of the registered population by the imperial court and the government.

Ancient societies with land rent and taxation as the main form of taxation were destined to have a firm grasp of land and population, and once the control of these two was relaxed, the decline of the regime was not far off.

Although Li Tai can now be called a powerful and noble position in the Western Wei Dynasty, if it is a blatant digging into the corners of the Taifu and leading a large number of Guanzhong people to the Nanyang Basin, the Taifu will not sit idly by and will definitely take action to stop it.

However, the population is not a resource that is urgently needed in the Nanyang Basin, and the newly acquired land of Handong already has a large population, plus Li Tai's expedition to the west to seek the people who have been taken back to Jingzhou from various places, and the people of Nanliang who have been fleeing from the lower reaches of the Yangtze River to the west are now also taking the land under Li Tai's rule as a target.

In short, due to many reasons, the population of Jingzhou has exploded even more than the local level of productivity development.

Therefore, the most urgent need in the Nanyang Basin at present is to continue to overhaul water conservancy, improve the cultivated environment, and vigorously develop agricultural production and various handicraft production, all of which require the input of massive money and resources.

Before leaving Guanzhong, Li Tai also held a series of consultations with the people of Taiwan on this matter, hoping that the Taiwan government would encourage and support the transportation of money and goods resources from Guanzhong to the Nanyang Basin.

Because from Guanzhong to the Nanyang Basin, the fastest and most convenient passage is Wuguan, and Wuguan has always been directly controlled by the Taiwan government due to its huge strategic value. Therefore, if you want to carry out large-scale transportation of people and goods, it is absolutely impossible to hide it from the eyes and ears of the Taiwan government.

Although Li Tai had previously opened up a meridian-Han water channel, with the recovery of the Hanzhong region in Shannan, this line was no longer suitable for frequent platform bottom operations.

Of course, the most fundamental reason is that Li Tai's position of power is no longer suitable for too many conspiracy acts, even if it can be effective in the short term, it will still be harmful in the long run.

With the resources and channels he has at his disposal, he can also bypass the control of the Taiwan government to realize the transfer of materials, but if it is said that it is leaky and people do not know, it is also impossible.

Even if there is no conclusive evidence, there will be rumors of chasing after the wind and shadows. Even if these rumors are not enough to hurt Li Tai, in the long run, they will increase the cost of the Taiwanese government's trust in him, thus imposing obstacles and obstacles in other aspects.

Therefore, it is better to talk openly and honestly with the Taiwan government, and the current Jingzhou Governor's Office needs a large amount of money, goods and materials to be invested to promote the recovery and development of the local area, so it needs to raise funds in Guanzhong.

In addition, Li Tai made a promise to the Taiwan government that for the funds imported from Guanzhong to the Nanyang Basin, the Jingzhou Governor's Government could return one-tenth of the total share to the Taiwan Government, and that a certain share of the profits obtained from these investments would be returned to the Taiwan Government every subsequent year.

In order to obtain the full support of the powerful people in the western part of the country, the Taiwan government gave them great autonomy, such as herding the prefecture and setting up the township marshal of the state, and so on, and the local military and political powers were given a lot. As for the property of these local tyrants, the Taiwan government naturally has no right to interfere and collect taxes.

Li Tai's suggestion was actually a bad idea, but it had value for discussion because the Taiwan government was too poor.

Although these riches are kept in Guanzhong, they will also hide the wealth from the people, but if the Taiwan government wants to really get it in its hands, it must adopt some tough measures, which will undoubtedly greatly undermine the stability of the Guanzhong region. But if it is transferred from Guanzhong to Nanyang, the Taiwan government can take the opportunity to exploit a layer and obtain tangible benefits without bloodshed.

To put it another way, Li Tai also used the development prospects of the entire Nanyang Basin as a bait, so as to open up a new source of revenue for the Taiwan government. As for the Nanyang Basin, it will gain greater benefits because of this, but the Nanyang Basin is also part of the empire's territory!

The Taiwan government attaches great importance to this issue, and one of the ideas that it finally decided on is that it is necessary to ensure that this benefit can be taken into its hands, but also not to completely relax the control, so that a large amount of Guanzhong's assets will flow out to Jingzhou.

Therefore, in the end, the resolution formed by the Taiwan government was that the Jingzhou Governor's Office would take the lead in proposing a plan to raise funds, and then submit it to the Taiwan government for review and approval. Next, in the process of raising funds, the first thing is to deduct one-tenth of the assets that need to be returned to Taiwan according to the proportion, and then the rest can be transported to Jingzhou.

At the same time, there is also a limit on the time for Guanzhong to send assets to Jingzhou, which can only be between the end of autumn and the New Year. Other than that, it is forbidden to transport.

This series of regulations has directly written "cunning and plundering" on the face. The former stipulation first satisfies Taiwan's share before transporting it to Jingzhou, and Li Tai can barely accept it, after all, if he takes a detour to other routes, the cost of transportation alone and the risk that needs to be borne on the way are far more than one-tenth.

However, the latter item is simply insulting Li Tai's IQ, and it must be known that the period from the end of autumn to the New Year is the time when the Taiwan government will summarize its finances, summarize the previous year, and formulate a financial plan for the new year.

The accumulation and export of non-governmental assets in Guanzhong during this period of time is to provide a good opportunity for these government officials in Taiwan to start intercepting and retaining them, and any deficit in the current year's revenue and expenditure and any shortfall in the next year's expenditure can be squeezed out of this cash flow.

Li Tai was originally an old oilman in the Taiwan government, how could he not understand the Tao in this, this plan was obviously the whimsical plan of the subordinate officials of the Taiwan government who were about to be tormented and crazy by the bad financial situation, and of course he would not agree, and even directly withdrew this proposal, unwilling to discuss it again.

However, the Taiwan government has even included this undetermined amount of income in the expenditure plan, and if it is not received, it will have a series of bad effects.

In the end, it was Lu Tong, an old acquaintance, who came to Li Tai's mansion again, begging him to go to Taiwan to continue the discussion, and then reached a consensus, the Taiwan government stipulated how much assets could be transported to Jingzhou every year, and if it was insufficient, one-tenth of the specific amount would be charged, and if it was exceeded, it would be necessary to increase the income by a certain percentage. In addition, the Taiwan government appointed an envoy to the Jingzhou Governor's Mansion to record the general situation of this part of the money transactions, and there were no other restrictions.

Because the two sides have formed a tacit understanding on this, there are many representatives of the powerful people in Guanzhong who followed Li Taigui Town this time, and they have to carefully investigate what the investment environment in the Nanyang Basin is and whether it is really profitable, and then decide whether to transfer some of their family's assets here for investment.

Although they do not have any systematic investment and financial management cognition in later generations, at least they still have the common sense of cunning rabbits and three holes, scattered and hedging, so they are also quite enthusiastic about it. After all, since the Hu Dynasty Rebellion, the Nanyang Basin has been one of the mainstream safe havens for Guanlong people.

The reason why Li Tai wanted to expand this matter was not just to be limited to the Qu League, of course, was also to maintain and strengthen his influence in Guanzhong. Even if he is not in Guanzhong soon, the people in Guanzhong will still not forget him and ignore him, because he is the money bag of these people!

Therefore, on the way back to the town, Li Tai had already sent an envoy back to Jingzhou to inform Cui Qian and others who stayed in the governor's mansion to make serious preparations, and strive to do a good job in the first investment promotion conference of the Jingzhou governor's mansion, so as to show the sincerity of the Jingzhou governor's mansion to these Guanzhong heroes, and then attract them to invest a large amount of their own wealth.
