Chapter 585: The Smartest Man in Xuzhou
Chen Jue, Mi Zhu and others are all human spirits, and when they heard that Liu Jian was going to play the imperial court to show Liu Bei as the pastor of Xuzhou, they immediately stopped talking.
After all, if you can get the official title of the imperial court through Liu Jian's performance, then the so-called support of the local wang clan in Xuzhou is a joke.
He is the governor of a state under the imperial court, and it is natural for him to come here to take office, so why should he inherit the favor of your family?
Chen Qi, Wang Lang, Mi Zhu and others are all human spirits, and after a little thought, they roughly understood Liu Jian's intentions.
It's just that even if they know Liu Jian's intentions, what can they do?
Liu Jian is not Tao Qian, but it is not something that they can bluff by using some strategies or tricks at will.
……
……
After walking out of the Taishou Mansion, Chen Qi, Wang Lang, and Mi Zhu looked at each other, and then saw Mi Zhu smile bitterly.
"It seems that this great general is not quite what we think...... It seems to be quite arbitrary. ”
Chen Jue said slowly: "No, if it is an arbitrary person, he will definitely not achieve such a great cause, according to the old man, this Fuyuan general is for the sake of prestige, and at the same time, it is also for the complete control of Xuzhou." ”
"Take control of ......?"
Wang Lang didn't seem to understand too much: "What do you mean by this?" ”
Chen Jue sighed: "Our family, the good time to share the political interests of Xuzhou with Tao Gongzu has passed, according to the old man's opinion, from now on, Xuzhou's military, political and financial power, local laws and regulations, and the benefits of salt and iron will be taken back by the government...... That is, to take back their Liu family's hands. ”
When these words came out, others were fine, and Mi Zhu's face changed first.
"Yes, probably not, right? I heard that General Fuyuan of Hebei is a diligent and loving person, and the people under his jurisdiction are very supportive, how can he do things to compete with the people for profit? ”
When Chen Qi heard this, he couldn't help laughing.
People?
Are we the people?
"Mi Zizhong, why are you scared of it now?"
Mi Zhu frowned: "What am I afraid of?" ”
Chen Jue sighed: "That's it, the old man is not joking with you, you need to know that the general is in Hebei, although he has the reputation of loving the people and can make Hebei rich, but the main lifeblood industry of Hebei is all in the hands of the official office, and its people are very centralized. ”
"Hebei is like this, do you think Xuzhou Yan can be spared?"
"Is that what we do?"
Chen Qi laughed: "What if you don't recognize it?" There are dozens of wang clans in Hebei who are not convinced, but what is the final result? The Manchus were exterminated, and the end was more tragic than the other. ”
"On the other hand, those families who obey the generals have increased a lot in wealth and industry, but they now have no say in Hebei's military and political affairs and talent appointment."
"Moreover, Hebei is the most thorough boundary for the implementation of the new policy of the imperial court, what does this represent, you should think about it."
After saying that, he saw Chen Jue arch his hand and bid farewell to Wang Lang and Mi Zhu.
Mi Zhu and Wang Lang also said goodbye to each other and left.
……
……
Liu Jian's recital was quickly written, and he sent people to send his recital to Chang'an with the fastest horse and envoy, and at the same time, Liu Jian also sent envoys to Beijing to find his allies Xun You, Liu Biao, Ma Riyan and others, hoping that the Qingliu Group could help him and advise the Son of Heaven about Liu Bei's state pastoralism.
At the same time, he began to write letters to Liu Yu in Qingzhou, asking Liu Yu to transfer some resources from Qingzhou to Xuzhou in response to emergencies.
After all, for most of the past six months, the Cao army and the Xuzhou army have been at war, Peng Chengguo, Xiapi State, Guangling needless to say, by Cao Jun and Sun Jianjun have been a lot of disasters, and the people in the north of Xuzhou have also been requisitioned because of this war, resulting in a delay in cultivation and harvest in the north of Xuzhou, and a significant decline in productivity.
Therefore, Xuzhou's top priority now is to resume production, and the resumption of production requires cereals, agricultural tools, etc., and these materials need support from Qingzhou.
Of course, in addition to the help of Qingzhou, the local Wang clan and Haoqiang in Xuzhou also need to provide their due support.
After all, the overall environment is not good, and the lives of the heroes are not easy.
All the strata work together to restore Xuzhou's vitality and become prosperous, which is the most correct path.
Of course, when Liu Jian raised this point at first, most of the local families in Xuzhou were still relatively supportive of this matter.
The first person to respond to Liu Jian was Chen Qi.
As the most appealing family among the Xuzhou families, the Chen family said that they would do their best to support all the governance of the general and Liu Bei, the lord of Xuzhou, in Xuzhou.
The attitude of the Chen family made Liu Jian feel very surprised.
You must know that every time you occupy a new place, especially in a large state like Xuzhou, the most difficult bone to gnaw in a state is generally the head of the local family.
Most of these families have developed for more than 100 years, and at the same time, they are extremely strong in both financial and human resources, and they are in charge of the lifeblood of many local industries.
Of course, the princes can also be completely deterred by military and military force, but in that case, if you are not careful in the future, it will cause a large-scale rebellion, and waste material and financial resources, of course, sometimes this is also a necessary means.
However, it is obvious that a sensible local clan like the Chen family is the most liked by the princes and shepherds.
Not only does it save trouble, money, but also worry.
What surprised Liu Jian even more was that Chen Qi actually took the initiative to give Liu Bei an admonition.
Although this admonition was sent to Liu Bei, it was obviously written to Liu Jian.
This is the true drunkard's meaning not in the wine.
The specific content of the admonition was read out by Chen Qi in front of many subordinate officials in Xuzhou, not only to Liu Bei, but also to many officials in Xuzhou, and even more to Liu Jian.
Chen Jue's exhortation is called "Advising on the New Deal and the Politics of Tuntian." ”
The gist of it is to let Liu Bei copy the Tuntian policy in Hebei and implement it in Xuzhou, and at the same time recruit local talents in Xuzhou to enrich the official office......
In short, Chen Jue said a large part of what Liu Jian wanted to do in Xuzhou next, and most of these things will more or less damage the interests of some local noble families and heroes in Xuzhou, of course, if you look at the long run, this is also an opportunity for these big clans to be baptized and evolved.
After Chen Qi finished speaking, he immediately expressed to Liu Bei that he was willing to take the initiative to dedicate the land that his family had not reclaimed in Xuzhou at present, and return the wasteland to the public for secondary distribution!
This statement can be said to be to a certain extent, betraying the camp of the powerful local noble families in Xuzhou first, and surrendering directly to Liu Jian.
It is true that the Chen family, as the head of the Xuzhou clans, will make many families follow them to Liu Jian, but at the same time, many local families in Xuzhou will also begin to distrust the Chen family.
There were three counties in the northern part of Xuzhou, and dozens of counties in the military state, each of which had at least three or two top families and several powerful landlords.
As the head of these families, if the Chen family is in line with their interests, these families will naturally be willing to recognize the Chen family as their elder.
But if the interests of the family are not aligned, they will not stand on the same front with Chen Qi.
In this way, the Chen family is very likely to lose their family's suzerainty status in the northern land of Xuzhou.
I'm afraid that the first family in the north of Xuzhou will no longer be their Chen family.
But even so, Chen Jue was not afraid.
This old man is still quite insightful.
Through Liu Jian's past experience in rectifying the four states of Hebei, Chen Qi knew that since Xuzhou had fallen into the hands of the Liu family, the result would inevitably be the same as the ending of the four states of Hebei, and there would be no variables.
No one in Xuzhou can disobey Liu Jian's intentions.
Jizhou and Youzhou are so difficult to deal with the places have been rectified by Liu Jian, what about Xuzhou?
Since Xuzhou is destined to be rectified by Liu Jian, it is better for him to hurry up and surrender to Liu Jian and seize the opportunity.
There are so many families in Xuzhou, who can give Liu Jian a priority? Who can make Liu Jian pay more attention to it?
There is no doubt that it is the family that first expressed the greatest sincerity to Liu Jian.
And in terms of the size of his own family, if he plays this card of goodwill and obedience before all the families react today, then from now on, their Chen family will inevitably be relied on by Liu Jian.
Although in the short term, these families in Xuzhou will despise the Chen family, but in the long run, the Chen family will still be the first family in Xuzhou in the future.
Chen Qi is very confident in his judgment.
He has great expectations for Liu Jian.
