Chapter 737: It's Done

Think about it, before Su Shi wants to attack a target, he will first disrupt the opponent's economic market, so that the opponent will be chaotic before fighting. In this way, wherever the dragon army goes, won't the resistance be greatly reduced?

Wherever the dragon army goes, it is not impossible for the soldiers to surrender without a fight.

Just like the land of the six cities that Su Shi now occupies, except for the first few battles, the four prefectures of Xianzhou took it without much effort, which is the standard soldier who surrenders without a fight.

All the reasons are caused by the fact that the opponent has no food and no money.

On the other hand, if the opponent has sufficient food and salary, it is difficult to capture so many cities in a short period of time without paying a big price.

Having said that, Su Shi has adopted a light policy on agricultural taxes, and now that he is there, there is a system, everything is not a problem, and there is no need to worry about the expenditure of the six cities.

But what if Su Shi is gone one day?

Replaced by a successor, just relying on this meager agricultural tax how to support such a big stall. For the future, business naturally came into being.

It's like the commercial trade between Su Shi and Liao, that is, Su Shi is looking for another way to enrich the country.

It's just that the trade with the Liao State is dominated by Su Shi, and a person's energy is limited, and he can't do everything by himself, so even if he doesn't die of exhaustion, he will lack skills, and the effect is not good.

In this way, Su Shi deliberately encouraged the people under his rule to do business. It's like the opening of the bathroom, etc., but this is still a small fight, and if you want to get more business taxes, you must have the appearance of a big dog.

It was at this time that Cui Yuanshan came, isn't this equivalent to drowsiness, and someone sent a pillow?

Cui Yuanshan wanted the right to do business, and Su Shi was very interested, "Oh, the Cui family wants to do business, but I don't know what to do?"

"The grass people are brave, seeing that the Huaxia store has the most complete items, if you can, please ask the Dragon Heavenly King to give one at will, and the Cui clan will be grateful." Cui Yuanshan is still lying on the ground.

At this time, he didn't dare to have any extravagant hopes, it was important to be able to get the approval of the Dragon Heavenly King first.

"Well, then why don't you want to be an official? Even if the Cui clan supports this king in this way, it is not impossible to ask for an official position." Su Shi saw Cui Yuanshan's caution, and while he was satisfied, he asked tentatively.

"Don't dare to hide it from the Dragon King, when the grass people first came, the order of the head of the family was to let the grass people come to ask for officials."

"Oh, there's such a thing, so why did you change your mind now?" Su Shi asked with interest.

"The grass people are not talented, and the officials under the rule of the Dragon Heavenly King are all dedicated to the people. The grass people know that their ability is limited, and the Cui family is not short of money, although the official treatment is good, but there are too many rules, the grass people are afraid that they will not be able to accept it, and they will eventually can't help but stretch out their greedy hand. Yes! The grass people are bold, and the grass people are guilty."

After saying this, Cui Yuanshan made a close contact between his head and the ground, and knocked it several times, so that the place where his head was red was red.

"Hahaha, okay, don't be afraid, this king likes to deal with people who tell the truth. Thy words are very pleasing to the king, and even so, the king grants thee the right to do business." Su Shi laughed.

He wouldn't believe that Cui Yuanshan was really an honest man, he had the courage to come to see him, and he also proposed to have the right to do business, how could an honest person do it?

But it is true that Su Shi likes Cui Yuanshan's cleverness.

Especially like the other party's knowledge of advance and retreat.

A person who knows how to advance and retreat is far more comfortable to get along with than a smart person.

Cui Yuanshan, who can accurately position himself, is not ambitious, clearly knows what he can get, and should not force anything, after a conversation, Su Shi agreed to the other party's request to do business.

At the same time, it is also equivalent to accepting Cui's surrender.

After the arrival of the dragon army, the Choi clan had to donate all the land that was not self-sufficient, and at the same time, he also had to act as an internal response to the dragon army and help it seize the entire territory of Goryeo.

The advantage that the Cui clan can get is that unless the person who has committed the most heinous crimes, he will not be liquidated. After the war, the Cui family was allowed to do business, and Su Shi was the table

To show his merits, he can consider giving him a monopoly certificate for one or two items as a commendation. (The heinous crime is to arouse public indignation, not to kill unpleasant, not to kill people who are not popular with the people.) )

The Cui family must be divided according to the regulations formulated by the Dragon Army, and ten people are one household. And the Cui clan that was separated must also be disrupted throughout Goryeo according to Su Shi's requirements. In the future, if necessary, it will be relocated to other territories controlled by the dragon army.

Ten people per household, this is equal to the current Cui family, and it will become many branches in the future.

It is also equivalent to the fact that the strength of the Cui family has been weakened into countless parts, and from then on, it will be difficult to form the prestige of any wealthy family, and it will not pose any threat to Su Shi's rule.

"Go back and talk to the Choi people and say that if you agree to the king's request, the first business you can do next is the grain business, but remember, the king only accepts gold and silver when selling grain, like the local currency issued by Goryeo, and the king does not approve of it."

After getting Su Shi's promise, Cui Yuanshan looked grateful and withdrew from the main hall in fear.

Looking at the back of his departure, Fu Bi on the side sat on the chair.

There were outsiders just now, and in order to highlight the importance of Su Shi, Fu Bi did not sit down from beginning to end. Now that there are no others, he can finally be presumptuous.

In the conversation just now, Fu Bi was asking in the early stage, and then Su Shi took over the initiative, and Fu Bi has been watching, and he is also very satisfied with the result.

Although no one knows the final result, after all, in Fu Bi's opinion, the conditions given by Su Shi are a bit harsh. But Su Shi did not beat the wealthy family to death with a stick, and finally gave the other party hope, which made Fu Bi very happy.

There are so many wealthy families in the world, you can't solve them all by killing.

Fu Bi even blindly thought that Su Shi had a hatred of the rich.

Now it seems that Su Shi is not a complete hatred of the rich, he is just worried that these rich people will do things behind his back. And as long as you are obedient and willing to cooperate, it will still give you a glimmer of life.

Fu Bi breathed a sigh of relief, but Su Shi had a dispensable expression.

Cui's willingness to surrender is certainly a good thing. With such an internal response, it will be much easier for the dragon army to occupy the whole of Goryeo, or even destroy them.

But in the final analysis, the final result depends on how strong the strength of the Dragon Army is, to put it bluntly, Cui's surrender is nothing more than icing on the cake.

Because of this, Su Shi came up with conditions that seemed a bit harsh. He just wanted to use this to tell the people of the Choi clan that it was inevitable that this king would rule Goryeo, and that it would be smoother with your support. But without your support, this king will also take it, just more time and pay more price.

On the other hand, Cui's is different.

Now they have suffered some losses, and they promise to submit, and they can save their lives. On the contrary, if you don't seize the opportunity now, then after the dragon army occupies the whole of Goryeo, don't blame them for not giving them a chance, at that time, the people of the Cui family are killed who should be killed, and those who should be reduced to crimes will be reduced to crimes.

In short, Su Shi didn't care much about the Cui family in his heart, he would agree to the other party's surrender, also because of Cui Yuanshan's actions to get his appetite, and it was impossible for him to kill all the big clans, properly release some kindness, get the refuge of some obedient people, and also give a glimmer of hope to other families who are still hesitating.

Don't underestimate these families, some of them have a longer inheritance than the current emperors. And the family that can last for hundreds or even hundreds of years, if they are really forced to break the net with you, the destructive power is not small.

Su Shi is not very afraid of these big clans, but he can clean them up at the smallest cost, so why bother to make a big effort?

Cui Yuanshan, who came out of the Dragon Heavenly King's Mansion, felt this and felt Su Shi's dispensable attitude towards his Cui family. But fortunately, the result was good, the Dragon Heavenly King agreed to their Cui clan's surrender, and although the conditions given were stricter, they still agreed, didn't they?

Outside the Dragon Heavenly King's Mansion, Cui Daotong has been watching from afar.

After entering from Cui Yuanshan, his heart kept beating

In the process of speeding up, he was really worried, worried that his brother would never be able to come out of the mansion as soon as he entered the mansion.

If that were the case, he would have left the place at once and gone back to report the news.

Fortunately, an hour later, Cui Yuanshan finally walked out of the Heavenly King's Mansion, looking at his appearance, his face was a little flushed, as if he was very happy.

"Brother, is it done?"

In an alley agreed before, the two brothers met, and Cui Daotong asked cautiously.

"It's finished." Cui Yuanshan said excitedly. Then the two brothers returned to their house, and then here, he recounted the conversation after meeting Su Shi.

"What? Is this also called? This Dragon Heavenly King, the conditions proposed are too harsh, in this way, our Cui clan will be torn apart, where is there still the appearance of a big clan?" Cui Daotong said these words in surprise after hearing everything that had happened.

For Cui Daotong to have such a reaction, it has long been expected by Cui Yuanshan. He smiled and said, "Little brother, this condition seems to be a bit harsh at first. But if you think about it, why not be a chance for our Cui family?"

"Opportunity? Where do you start?" Cui Daotong looked puzzled.

"Little brother, brother asks you. The Cui family has been passed down to us, and there are dozens of people with a history of more than 300 years. But what else does our Cui clan have besides having a larger population and some surplus wealth?"

"The successive kings of the Goryeo Dynasty have been guarding against us all the time, even if we people with the surname Choi want to be officials, we will be targeted and monitored everywhere. Under such circumstances, how can we talk about the future development of the Cui family?"
