Chapter 692: Dispute aside

To be honest, Huang Quan was really very uneasy when he said his thoughts.

If nothing else, I'm afraid that Liu Bei will think that he has something else to think about.

Huang Quan admires Liu Bei's character quite a lot, but in the same way, Huang Quan has no objection to Liu Bei as a qualified political figure.

It's just that the suggestion that Huang Quan wants to give Liu Bei today is a suggestion that seems to be very selfish, but in fact, Huang Quan really doesn't have much selfishness.

In Huang Quan's view, the biggest problem in Guanzhong's current predicament is the lack of people, and the lack of at least half of the population Cao Wei is really ruthless.

If we can't find a way to make up for this half of Dingkou, then no matter whether Zhang Xi's transfer of troops to the border of Sanzhou County or Pang Tong's strategic defense first, it will only be a temporary strategy and will not be able to fundamentally solve the problem.

The shortage of more than 400,000 Dingkou is not something that can be solved in one or two years, even if the people of Guanzhong are allowed to give birth and raise, it will have to be 20 years before it can recover to the number of 1 million Dingkou in the heyday of Guanzhong.

That's a generation or two.

Since Guanzhong itself cannot double its population in a short period of time, the only solution is to bring in the population from other places.

Under Liu Bei's control, including the newly established Qinzhou, there are only five states, and this Qinzhou has only three counties, and Liangzhou next door has five counties, but these two states are actually the same, the notoriously vast land and sparse population, if not for the scarce land area, these two states themselves are short of people to death.

The only two states with rich populations are Jingzhou and Yizhou.

But the place in Jingzhou is located at the intersection of the three forces, and the people within Liu Bei's group are not collectively brain-pumped, otherwise they will definitely not easily migrate from that place into the customs. Where you can draw some population to enrich Guanzhong, isn't there only one Yizhou left.

But the question is, what virtues does the Yizhou family have, and Huang Quan, as a native of Yizhou, can he still not know? !

Even the xenophobic people who can't be tolerated by the Dongzhou faction, can they so easily let Liu Bei transfer people from Yizhou to Dingkou to the north to enrich Guanzhong?!

It must be necessary for Liu Bei to take the initiative to give certain benefits and exchange interests.

And in the land of Guanzhong, the only thing that can make this group of Yizhou native turtles tempt is not those fertile fields that have been cultivated and inherited for hundreds of years.

Anyway, there is a shortage of people in Guanzhong, so it is better to take out the land and attract the local tycoons in Yizhou to buy land and expand the scale of the family.

But for Liu Bei, can he allow Yizhou Haoqiang to meddle in the land of Guanzhong so simply?!

There are not enough benefits, why should Liu Bei let go of the restrictions on Yizhou's local heroes?!

You know, what is the purpose of Zhuge Liang's return to Chengdu now? !

Isn't it to rectify the Yizhou family heroes who have refused to give in until now.

However, Liu Bei's tough attitude made Huang Quan, who was born in a Yizhou family, feel that he had done too much, and wanted to help buffer it in the middle. Really, don't look at you Liu Bei has won Guanzhong now, but your basic plate is still in Yizhou, and now in this situation, it is not good for everyone to turn your face with the Yizhou family.

Therefore, Huang Quan's idea was to let Liu Bei give up part of the land in Guanzhong and allow Yizhou Haoqiang to go north to Guanzhong, expand his family's influence, and also leave another path for family development.

And the Yizhou family, Huang Quan can also use the part of the land released by Liu Bei to persuade the Yizhou family to give up the soft confrontation with Liu Bei, choose to cooperate with Liu Bei's group, and spit out some hidden Yizhou Dingkou to enrich Hanzhong.

In Huang Quan's view, anyway, with the deepening of Liu Bei's fish scale atlas system, it is unrealistic for the Yizhou family to continue to encroach on land in Yizhou, and it is also a big burden for the Yizhou Haoqiang family to continue to hide so many Dingkou.

It is better to release some of these Dingkou in exchange for Liu Bei to allow Yizhou Haoqiang to go north to purchase land, so that the families can get the land they dream of, and Liu Bei can get the Dingkou he urgently needs, and at the same time ease the relationship between Liu Bei and the Chengdu family, killing multiple birds with one stone.

So, Huang Quan's idea is true, the public heart is greater than the selfishness, even if there are some selfish intentions, it is just that the Yizhou family does not want to turn against Liu Bei Group at this time.

Ideas are actually good ideas, but. This idea was said by Huang Quan, a person from a local family in Yizhou, and when he heard Liu Bei's ears, there were disadvantages.

If Liu Bei wasn't also familiar with Huang Quan's character and morality, it would be hard to say where he would want to go.

For example, Zhang Xi and Pang Tong, from the first time they heard Huang Quan say this, they thought that Huang Quan was making an excuse to give the Yizhou family an opportunity to meddle in Yongzhou affairs.

Zhang Xi was almost the first to jump out to object, he didn't want to suddenly have so many unmanageable thorn families in the Yongzhou Thorn History Department.

The family in these years, in Zhang Xi's eyes, is not a good thing, and Zhang Xi has always been wary of them.

And Yongzhou is rare to have almost cleared out all the influential families with the help of full favor, and many government affairs have been implemented without so many concerns. If those Yizhou families intervene and come in, things will be troublesome again.

And Pang Tong, in fact, is not happy that Yizhou turtles come to Yongzhou to develop.

Pang Tong knew the actual situation in Jingzhou, and he also knew that the families in Jingzhou currently had no spare strength to meddle in Yongzhou's affairs.

After all, the Jingzhou family has already entered Yizhou first, and now if they want to meddle in Yongzhou's affairs. If greed is not enough, Pang Tong will not be unable to understand the fate of the snake swallowing the elephant.

But the Jingzhou family can't meddle in Yongzhou affairs, which doesn't mean that the Jingzhou family is willing to see the Yizhou family go to Yongzhou to develop.

In the past, you could still laugh at the Yizhou family as a southwestern turtle, but if people develop in Yongzhou Guanzhong in the future, they have to turn around and laugh at the Jingzhou family as a southern barbarian turtle.

You must know that the current Jingzhou is actually the location of the Chu State in the Spring and Autumn Period, and Yizhou is the location of the Ba State and the Shu State.

The State of Chu ridiculed the country of Ba and the country of Shu as barbarians, and everyone in the world recognized it, but once the Yizhou turtle ran to Guanzhong Qindi, he turned into a Guanzhong person, and turned around and laughed at the Jing Chu family as a southern barbarian, and the people of the world also recognized it!!

By the way, this person in the world is the families of the Central Plains and Hebei and other places.

Anyway, not being happy is one thing.

On the other hand, Pang Tong is also worried that once the Yizhou family is allowed to enter Guanzhong, the strength of the Yizhou family will be further expanded.

Liu Bei Group's attitude towards the family, Pang Tong is also very clear, for the family, Liu Bei Group has always adopted the way of winning over a group, suppressing a group, and resolutely not allowing the family to sit big.

And the Yizhou family was originally trapped in Yizhou, as long as Liu Bei continued to defend it so strictly, and did not give the Yizhou family a chance, in the end, the Yizhou family would inevitably bow to Liu Bei, otherwise they would not have any future.

But once the suppression of the Yizhou family was lifted, they were even allowed to go north to Guanzhong to seek development. Once these Yizhou families escape from the cage, will they still be as obedient as before?!

If you really want to make something out of it, it's not a good thing for Liu Bei Group!!

In the final analysis, although Huang Quan's suggestion, although he himself felt that he was more public than selfish, in fact, Huang Quan himself knew that the biggest beneficiary of his suggestion was the Yizhou family.

If he hadn't proposed to let the Yizhou family release the hidden Dingkou in exchange for the qualification to go north to Guanzhong, maybe even Liu Bei would have doubted his intentions.

But now, Liu Bei has an even more headache.

Zhang Xi and Pang Tong's disposal strategy for Zuo Fengyi, although each has its own shortcomings, can still be cured for a while after all.

Huang Quan's treatment strategy for Zuo Fengyi, although it can be cured fundamentally, the residual poison is too great.

In addition, his health has not been very good for this period of time, Liu Bei always feels that his brain is in a mess, no matter how he thinks about it, he feels that it is a mess, and his brain is buzzing.

Liu Bei had no choice but to sit down slowly and think calmly for a long time. At this time, Liu Bei missed it very much, how good it would be if Zhuge Liang was by his side.

No matter how troublesome or complicated the matter, Zhuge Liang can analyze himself in an orderly manner, and at the same time give himself a very reasonable suggestion.

And when he thought of Zhuge Liang in Chengdu, Liu Bei suddenly thought of something that had been hidden in his heart for a long time and had not made up his mind.

Maybe it's really time to do that.

When I think about my body, my energy state, the age and experience of my heirs. At Xiao Adou's current level, what can I do if it goes on like this?!

Thinking of this, Liu Bei seemed to have suddenly made up his mind and sat up.

And Liu Bei's sudden change of attitude also made Zhang Xi and the other three people sit in a precarious position, and the three of them all thought that Liu Bei had made a decision about Zuo Feng Yijuntun.

But then, what Liu Bei said was a little intriguing.

"Zuo Fengyi's matter, let's not mention it for the time being, after worshipping the ancestors in the coming day, recruit Hanzhong Liu Ba, Fa Zheng, and Chengdu Zhuge Liang to come to Chang'an to discuss matters, and then make a decision!"

Is this temporarily shelved?!

Well, that's fine.

No matter whose strategy is adopted, in fact, it involves the military and political affairs of the three states, and it is not something that can be decided for a while, and it is not surprising to wait for Zhuge Liang, Fa Zheng, Liu Ba and others to discuss together.

And then came the real surprise.

"I have one more matter, I want to hear the opinions of the three Qing families."

As soon as Liu Bei said this, Zhang Xi, Pang Tong, and Huang Quan were all at the same time.

Why did my father-in-law suddenly start speaking in such a formal tone?!

In any case, the Son of Heaven spoke in a formal courtly tone, and Zhang Xi and the three of them couldn't deal with it casually, according to the court, I respectfully asked the Son of Heaven to instruct.

Then Liu Bei dropped a bomb.

"I want to follow the example of the Han Dynasty, reset the post of prime minister, command the three provinces and six ministries, and the prime minister and the three secretaries of government, what do you think?!"

Okay, this bomb directly blew up Zhang Xi and the three of them, and they began to get confused.
