Chapter 390: Fight again, no matter who wins or loses
"Hahaha, Ziheng thinks that just by building the Hanzhong Vocational Training College, the world's corporal clans will attack it?"
Cao Pi heard what Cao Zhi said, and couldn't help but smile at Cao Zhi.
"I wonder what my brother thinks?
If the Great Wei court and the world's scholars are separated from morality, then the thousands of miles of the Great Wei Dynasty will not be able to rely on the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce to help the imperial court maintain it? ! ”
Cao Zhi immediately retorted to Cao Pi.
"Ziheng, you said this well!
It is true that the Shi clan of the world helped their father to rule the Great Wei Dynasty, but they should understand that this power was given to them by their father and the Great Wei court!
If today, because of the construction of the Hanzhong Vocational Training College, the corporal clan of the world is opposed to the Great Wei court, then where is the prestige of the Great Wei court in the future? ”
Cao Pi faced Cao Zhi's questioning, and he did not fall behind at all.
Cao Cao watched his two sons fight for the position of the crown prince in front of him, and couldn't help but think of his youngest son Cao Chong, who was building the Hanzhong Vocational Training College in Yizhou.
"Zijian, Ziheng, what you said about your father is very clear in his heart.
This Hanzhong Vocational Training College is to the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce what the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce is to the Great Wei.
The two are mutually reinforcing, and no one can do without them.
The reason why my father insisted so much on the construction of the Hanzhong Vocational Training College in the Great Wei Dynasty and the further development of the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce so that the Great Wei Imperial Court could collect more taxes.
When the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce had not yet reached today's scale, the annual tax revenue of Dawei was only one million taels, and when the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce vigorously built a production base in Dawei, Dawei's annual tax revenue was close to ten million taels. ”
Although Cao Pi and Cao Zhi knew that the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce had now become an important source of tax revenue for the Great Wei, they did not expect that the influence of the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce on the tax revenue of the Great Wei would be so great.
At this time, after listening to Cao Cao's story, Cao Pi couldn't help but feel excited.
Since the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce has such an important impact on the tax revenue of the Great Wei, the Hanzhong Vocational Training College, which was established as the development and growth of the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce, naturally needs to be vigorously built.
After Cao Zhi heard this, the expression on his face became slightly unnatural.
Although he knew that the role of the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce was huge, he did not expect that if the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce slowed down the pace of development, then the tax revenue of the Great Wei would also grow slowly.
Sighing helplessly in his heart, Cao Zhi knew that this time he would not be able to slow down the construction of Hanzhong Vocational Training College in Dawei no matter what.
"As long as my father does not ascend the throne for a day, the position of the crown prince will not be determined for a day!
I still have a chance! ”
Cao Zhi silently cheered for himself in his heart.
Cao Cao saw that both of them were in a state of thought, so he didn't continue, giving the two of them some time to digest the tax issue he had just mentioned.
After a while, Cao Cao continued: "But you must know that there is a certain amount of silver that can be produced in this world.
Since the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce helped the Great Wei court increase taxes, it means that there is not as much silver in the pockets of the world's scholars as before.
This is also one of the important reasons why the father did not force the construction of the Hanzhong Vocational Training College to start in the entire Great Wei Dynasty. ”
When Cao Cao said this, Cao Zhi couldn't help but raise his head and began to figure out Cao Cao's true thoughts on the construction of Hanzhong Vocational Training College.
"My father rules over the thousands of miles of the Great Wei Dynasty, as Ziheng said, and now it is indeed inseparable from the assistance of the world's corporal clans.
From ancient times to the present, there has not been an emperor who can rule the world without the help of the world's scholars.
But how to manage these nobles, and not let them take their undeserved share, is the wisdom and means of the emperors of the past dynasties! ”
For the rest of his life, he only wanted to build the Great Wei into a powerful empire mentioned in Lin Chuankou's mouth, and now he also has a feeling of love and hatred for the scholars of the Great Wei.
"The construction of the Hanzhong Vocational Training College in the Great Wei Dynasty was a means for the father to deal with the growing desires of these scholars.
However, on the premise of not affecting the normal development of the Great Wei, it is necessary for Cangshu and Mr. Lin to work hard to get this wealth from the hands of the scholars to the hands of the entire Great Wei. ”
Cao Cao finally made it clear to Cao Pi and Cao Zhi that he had a true attitude towards Hanzhong Vocational Training College.
"Father, Ziheng understands!"
"Father, Zijian also understands!"
Cao Pi and Cao Zhi said to Cao Cao at the same time when they heard this, and now the two have no intention of fighting each other again for the construction of Hanzhong Vocational Training College.
Cao Cao had already made it very clear to the two generals that the purpose of the construction of this Hanzhong Vocational Training College was to harvest wealth from the hands of the Great Wei clan.
This speed cannot be too fast, nor too slow, once the Great Wei court headed by Cao Cao imposes its will on the Xia Shi clan, it will cause uncontrollable consequences.
Therefore, the construction of this Hanzhong vocational training school can only be promoted by the efforts of Lin Chuan and Cao Chong.
In Lin Chuan's vision, Hanzhong Vocational Training College is not only a hematopoietic machine of the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce, but also a public school in the Great Wei Dynasty in the future, just like the basic education school of later generations.
Of course, Lin Chuan never mentioned this idea to Cao Cao or others, even the principal of Hanzhong Vocational Training College, his disciple Cao Chong, Lin Chuan never mentioned his true positioning of Hanzhong Vocational Training College.
Cao Pi and Cao Zhi continued to be in the side hall of the Wei Palace, and after talking with Cao Cao for a while about the influence of the continued development of the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce on the Great Wei, they left together.
"I hope you can understand from this incident that the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce is of great significance to Dawei, don't do things like killing chickens and taking eggs after I leave......"
After Cao Pi and Cao Zhi left, Cao Cao, who was sitting alone in the side hall, whispered to himself.
After leaving the Wei Palace, the two brothers said hello and returned to their mansions.
"Ziheng, what did King Wei say?"
Sima Lang asked Cao Pi, who had just returned to the mansion.
"Alas...... Father's meaning is ......"
Cao Pi removed Cao Cao's analysis of the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce and the Hanzhong Vocational Training College, removed the paragraph of ruling the world's corporal clans, and relayed the rest of the original to Sima Lang.
"It turned out that King Wei's attitude towards the construction of Hanzhong Vocational Training College was to support, but he did not make specific requirements for various states and counties.
Then we still have a lot of room to operate! ”
Sima Lang, who understood the cause and effect, excitedly said to Cao Pi that in terms of influence on the Great Wei clan, Cao Pi, who is the eldest son of Cao Cao, naturally surpasses Cao Zhi.
"The construction of Hanzhong Vocational Training College, you and I will not participate in it again in the future.
This is my father's explanation to me and Zijian. ”
Cao Pi used this reason to stop Sima Lang's idea of continuing to promote the construction of Hanzhong Vocational Training College.
Sima Lang wanted to say something when he heard this, but in the end he just sighed lightly and said no more.
