Chapter 264: Can You Still Play Like This?
"Tsk, such a handsome Changning Marquis, let my sister-in-law think so closely......"
Early in the morning of the second day, Liu Ling came.
As soon as the woman entered the door, she began to 'tease' Yang Chuan, ignoring Liu Man, Naren Tuoya and Zhang Anshi, who were doing their homework: "Yang Chuan Xiaolangjun, do you want to be a sister-in-law?" ”
Yang Chuan said quietly: "I want to die, I want to die." ”
Liu Ling covered his mouth and smiled, and said, "Do you want your sister-in-law to die, or do you want your sister-in-law to want to die?" ”
Yang Chuan pointed to the seat next to him: "Lord Weng, please take a seat." ”
Liu Ling sat down with her buttocks, and deliberately rubbed it back and forth a few times, so that a very strong pine chair made a 'squeak' sound, and her rather handsome face showed a touch of shyness, and sighed: "Ah, so comfortable!" ”
Yang Chuan was speechless for a while.
This woman is too thick-skinned, and her words and deeds are full of commotion, which is too embarrassing for the old Liu family......
Looking at Yang Chuan's helpless expression, Liu Ling smiled and asked softly: "Yang Chuan Xiaolangjun, you sent a message to your sister-in-law, saying that there is a big deal to cooperate, let's say, what kind of business." ”
Yang Chuan said very coldly: "Lord Liu Lingweng, Guo Xie has brought you more than 30 trucks of Khotanese jade seeds, and I heard that you have exchanged two mines and seven or eight thousand acres of fertile land for you, but the information you gave me was wrong, but I never got a single war horse;
Doing business with you, Liu Ling Weng, I'm a little scared. ”
Liu Ling laughed, pointed at Yang Chuan's nose and scolded with a smile: "It's because you don't have the ability yourself, do you know how many Hun horses did Dachangmen Cui Jiu get in that business?" ”
Yang Chuan shook his head: "I don't know." ”
"Thirty thousand, thirty thousand of the best Hun horses," Liu Ling sneered and scolded: "It's that old thief who is too greedy, not only thinking about the 30,000 war horses, but also wanting to put a trap on the palace and charge him with communicating with foreign countries and plotting against him." ”
Yang Chuan said indifferently: "It's just a business, isn't it?" ”
Liu Ling snorted, but he didn't dwell on that matter anymore, turned his head to look at Liu Man, who was doing his homework, and said with a smile: "Full Yue'er, why didn't you say anything when you saw my sister-in-law?" ”
Liu Man glanced at Yang Chuan, and said with a bitter face: "Aunt Liu Ling, I haven't finished my homework today......
Liu Ling smiled, no longer paying attention to Liu Man, but asked Yang Chuan directly: "Hurry up, send me a message, what business do you want to discuss?" ”
Yang Chuan said: "I've been short of money recently, can I borrow some money?" ”
Liu Ling was stunned and scolded: "Borrow money? Look at you like this, is it the attitude of borrowing money? Others borrowed money from me, but they all prepared their names and waited outside my house. ”
Yang Chuan said expressionlessly: "Others are others, I am me, others borrow your money, it is nothing more than to give you a little interest, I Yang Chuan borrowed money, but I give you a way out." ”
Liu Ling was angry for a while, and couldn't help asking, "Why?" ”
Yang Chuan glanced at Liu Man, smiled meaningfully, and then looked sideways at Liu Ling: "Benhou heard a hint of wind, the emperor has been hesitating recently, whether to adopt Sang Hongyang's Tui En Order......
Liu Ling sneered and said, "Sang Hongyang is really dizzy this time, and he actually took the credit for Tui'en Ling on his head, which is clearly the way to die; Yang Chuan, do you know that this Tui En Order is actually not Sang Hongyang's strategy? ”
Yang Chuan was stunned and said, "Huh? Is there a secret to this? ”
Liu Ling's face gradually became gloomy, and he said indifferently: "This edict was actually put forward by the dead ghost of the master father, aiming to weaken and divide the vassal states surnamed Liu; Later, the master's father Yan was imprisoned, and Sang Hongyang got the news out of nowhere, and deceived this plan to change himself to the official position of a great agricultural order, and killed the master's father's life.
Yang Chuan, you are a smart person, it is better not to get involved in some bad things in the court, otherwise, you will die an ugly death. ”
Yang Chuan shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I don't have big ambitions, I just want to make some money while I'm young." ”
Liu Ling stared at Yang Chuan's handsome little face, with a look of disbelief, but said in his mouth: "Say, what do you want to do?" ”
Yang Chuan stopped going around the bend and said directly: "Before the spring starts tomorrow, I may be sent by the emperor to Shuofang to go to Tuntian, so I want to discuss with you before this to see if I can lend me a large sum of money, so I can prepare in advance." ”
Liu Ling said with a cold face: "Don't beat around the bush, and don't be smart." ”
Yang Chuan nodded, and said with a straight face: "The land of Shuofang is active and wide, and the land that can be cultivated alone has hundreds of thousands or millions of acres casually, and relying on the little money and grain of the imperial court alone will not help at all; Therefore, what I mean is that I want to pull a few more relatives and friends to cultivate the land with me;
Of course, the profits in this are naturally very rich, depending on whether Liu Ling Weng is interested or not. ”
"Tuntian? Farming with you? ”
Listening to Yang Chuan's words, Liu Ling's face showed a touch of surprise: "Tuntian, that is a major matter set by the imperial court, how can you Yang Chuan be allowed to change it at will?"
If you kid wants to die, don't bring your sister-in-law along! ”
Yang Chuan smiled, took out a roll of silk silk from his arms, and handed it to Liu Ling casually: "Lord Liu Ling, please take a look." ”
Liu Ling opened the scroll of silk in great confusion, and his face showed a look of shock: "Emperor, will, actually allow you to deal with the fertile land in Shuofang by yourself?" ”
Yang Chuan nodded and sighed: "The emperor is anxious to be in Shuofang Tuntian, but after these battles with the Huns, the imperial court and the inner government are actually a little stretched, so I adopted my suggestion and encouraged you big dogs to go to the wasteland and farm together." ”
Liu Ling was suspicious, staring at Yang Chuan's eyes with burning eyes: "Why do I think there is fraud in it?" ”
Yang Chuan smiled and waved his hand: "Aunt Liu Ling, since you don't believe it, then forget it, I'll find someone else to borrow money; Or, bring in some more people who are willing to work with me to open up the wasteland and farm.
Liu Man, send one to my sister-in-law. ”
Liu Manhu stood up and said loudly: "Order!" ”
"Sister-in-law, please."
Liu Ling stood up, his face became very ugly, and he sneered: "What's the matter, if you can't borrow money and food, you will turn your face and not recognize people?" ”
Yang Chuan also sneered: "Lord Liu Ling Weng, you took a map of my Yang Chuan, Guo Xie dug up a cart after a cart of priceless Khotanese jade seeds in the Western Regions, so that Lord Liu Ling Weng became the richest woman in the world, and now, I just want to make another deal with you...... Let's go. ”
As he spoke, Yang Chuan waved his hand casually, with a hint of obvious disgust on his face: "Liu Man, don't ask Aunt Liu Ling to get out!" ”
Liu Ling was about to say something, but Liu Man grabbed his sleeve and pushed and 'sent' out of the door......
……
After infuriating Liu Ling and sending him away, Yang Chuan immediately wrote a secret letter to Liu Che, the content of which was nothing more than a little 'thinking' and 'thinking' about Tuntian in Shuofang County.
Early the next morning, Dachangmen Cui Jiu arrived.
"Yang Chuan, do you want to go to Shuofang Tuntian?" As soon as they met, Cui Jiu's old thief asked with a smile: "The emperor just made you a marquis of Guannei, and you want to hide from afar to watch the excitement?" ”
Yang Chuan said with a tired face: "It's not that I want to hide and watch the excitement, it's that Yulin Army is too poor, I have to find a way to cheat a lot of money and food; Yesterday, I wanted to pit Liu Ling, but as a result, the slut was not fooled and was angry with Ben Hou! ”
Cui Jiu's face stiffened for a while, and he scolded angrily: "You are the first to be able to say that the matter of pit abduction and deception is so fresh and refined." ”
Yang Chuan rubbed his cheeks, yawned and said, "No way, I haven't had a good night's sleep for many days in order to find a way to make money recently; By the way, Uncle Cui Jiu, what does the emperor mean? ”
Cui Jiu said with a smile: "The emperor said that as long as you can get money and food for Yulin Jun, he doesn't bother to ask." ”
Yang Chuan yawned again and said, "That's not good, millions of acres of fertile land in Shuofang County, if the emperor doesn't speak, who dares to deal with it at will?" At the next court meeting, please ask the emperor to say so......"
……
So, more than ten days later, the Yang fief was lively again.
There was an endless stream of nobles from Chang'an City, up to the emperor's relatives and relatives, down to the big dog families in the Guanzhong area, and powerful ministers of more than 2,000 stones, riding in extravagant carriages, and rushed one after another.
Everyone rushed to the Yang fiefdom for only one purpose: to grab land.
It is indeed a land grab.
Because, just yesterday, at the great court meeting, the emperor adopted the suggestion of Yang Chuan, the Marquis of Changning, and implemented the tuntian system in Shuofang County, and promoted the cultivation of wheat, rape, flax and cotton and other crops in a large area.
Liu Che personally promised that Yang Chuan would make the decision on the Tuntian in Shuofang County.
Yang Chuan, who was newly promoted to the Marquis of Changning, said on the spot that Shuofang is vast and sparsely populated, and the land is fertile, and only a small amount of manpower, livestock, money, grain and seeds can be invested, and very rich profits can be obtained; Therefore, he wanted to involve more 'big dogs' to reduce the burden on the imperial court and make everyone earn some extra money and food.
For this reason, Yang Chuan proposed after careful consideration that if the imperial court provided the land of Shuofang County, and the big dog households provided the livestock, seeds, and a small amount of money and grain necessary for reclamation and farming, they could have a large piece of fertile land for 30 years......
Liu Che waved his hand: Accurate.
As a result, there is today's grand occasion.
"Marquis Changning, I heard that in Shuofang Tuntian, there is no need to hand over any money and grain to the imperial court within thirty years?"
"Marquis Changning, we haven't been to Shuofang County, I heard that there is drought and little rain, and the land is barren, these dozens of ploughing cattle are handed over to you, will you lose all your money?"
"Changning Hou, do you sell your cotton seeds?"
“……”
Every noble person enters the door, and after greetings, they will basically ask directly, and there is nothing to taboo.
Yang Chuan is very satisfied with this.
This is what a big dog should look like, as long as it involves fundamental interests, there is no need to say a lot of polite words under the cover of clouds, straight to the point, straight to the point.
"Thank you for coming, coming, coming, let's sit down first, let's talk while eating."
Yang Chuan and Cao Xiang, the two 'Hou Ye', stood at the door and personally 'picked up guests', and the faces of the two people were naturally harmonious, harmless to humans and animals, and they were smiling when they saw anyone.
There is no way, I want to make money and look at people with my nostrils, in the entire Han Empire, except for the real big people like Liu Che and Gongsun Hong, no one else can do it.
It's hard to make money and it's not chilling.
Seeing that three o'clock in the afternoon had passed, and the nobles who should have come were almost all here, Yang Chuan and Cao Xiang entered the door and walked to their seats and sat down.
"You've done a great job." Yang Chuan sat on the main seat, greeted with a smile, and let people open the table.
Yang Chuan's food is naturally extremely delicious, even if it is the simplest large plate of stir-fried lamb, plus seven or eight kinds of seasonal stir-fry, four or five kinds of cold wild vegetables, it makes people salivate.
Seeing that the dishes were ready, Yang Chuan picked up a bowl of wine and said with a smile: "Everyone, please!" ”
There are many titles and official positions higher than Yang Chuan, and at this moment, they are also full of spring breeze with a bowl of wine, and the sixteen-year-old 'Marquis of Changning' is far away from the bowl: "Marquis Changning, please!" ”
The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have seven or eight flavors.
Someone finally couldn't help but ask: "Marquis Changning, what is the field in Shuofang County?" I heard that there was a drought and little rain over there, and Gongsun Ao Tuntian had not even taken back the grain seeds for a year and a half, but let the imperial court put in 100,000 yuan. ”
"That's right, if you don't figure it out, you will scatter a lot of money and food in a daze, and you will lose someone!"
“……”
Listening to everyone's discussions, Yang Chuan said with a smile: "It doesn't matter whether the land in Shuofang County is fertile or not, what matters is who helps you plant, what to plant, and how to plant;
Let's put it this way, three years ago, my fiefdom was a barren land, and the weeds were three feet deep, but it was just a barren beach; Now you see, the output of one acre of land is not worse than your best paddy fields near Chang'an City, right? ”
Everyone nodded their heads one after another, and their faces showed a sudden expression.
Yang Chuan observed everyone's expressions with a smile, and sneered in his heart: "These cowards, since they can run around to grab the land, I am afraid that they have a deeper understanding of the land of Shuofang than me, look at these pretending ......
"What everyone cares about is nothing more than how much profit can be obtained from investing this amount of money and grain, and Ben Hou can only say that he doesn't know about this issue."
Yang Chuan took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "Why do you say that? Think about it, if you are given a hundred acres of land, not to mention the seven or eight hundred miles of travel, and you have to cross a big river in the middle, the cost of going back and forth alone is probably a large amount of money and food, and it is not cost-effective at all; But what if you were given 3,000 acres of good paddy fields? What about 20,000 acres?
Besides, if you let your own servants plough, how many crops will you harvest at the end of the year?
Therefore, you should not think about whether the land is fertile or not, and whether the output is large, but how big the field you want and who will help you cultivate it. ”
This remark is a bit twisted, and many people are hesitant, and they are making their own little calculations in their hearts.
Yang Chuan is not in a hurry, anyway, for this time...... Ahem, anyway, this time I went to Shuofang Tuntian, it would be best if these powerful families could come up with a large sum of money and food, even if no one participated, it didn't matter, he could also find a way to raise a large amount of money and food.
What is the most expensive thing in the world? Nature is land.
Yesterday's court meeting, he and Liu Che sang and harmonized, just finished the play, that night, there were several mysterious people at home, as soon as they opened their mouths, they asked for 100,000 mu or 300,000 mu......
"Marquis Changning, the larger the area of this field, the more cost-effective it is, but listen to what you mean...... It seems that you can also ask someone else to help with the farming? Finally, someone smacked a little bit of meaning and couldn't help but ask loudly.
Yang Chuan looked intently and found that it was a long history of the Prime Minister's Mansion who spoke.
Obviously, this person came to talk about things as a 'representative' of Gongsun Hong.
"Since someone asked, Ben Hou might as well say it clearly."
Yang Chuan stood up with the wine bowl and beckoned everyone to eat and drink well, and then said loudly: "Although the land of Shuofang County has not been reclaimed in a large area, once it is reclaimed, it is actually similar to the fertile land in Guanzhong, and even, because the climate over there is slightly drier, it is more suitable for planting wheat and cotton, and the utilization value is higher;
Ben Hou means that he wants to do a business with everyone......"
He paused slightly, casually observing the changes in everyone's expressions, until everyone cast a rather puzzled look at him, and then continued: "Ben Hou means that you only need to take out the necessary ploughing cattle, seeds, farm tools, etc., and you can claim a large piece of newly cultivated fertile land in Shuofang County;
As for the area of this field, of course, it is not that whoever has money will occupy more, but whoever has a high title and a large official position can occupy hundreds or thousands of acres more;
This is also what the emperor meant, which can be regarded as a reward for you, so that you can have a good piece of fertile land on the basis of the original fiefdom......"
Next, Yang Chuan explained some details of Tuntian in Shuofang County in detail, and everyone present was shocked when he heard it: "Can you still play like this? ’
"Marquis Changning, what you said is true?" Someone couldn't help but ask.
"Of course it's true, at the court meeting, didn't the emperor make it clear that the matter of Tuntian in Shuofang County was decided by Benhou?"
Yang Chuan took a sip of tartary buckwheat tea, and continued with a smile: "The ownership of the land in Shuofang County belongs to the imperial court, and what you have is the right to cultivate that land for thirty years, which the emperor has already agreed;
In addition, in order to reduce everyone's input, Benhou will organize a special team to help everyone open up wasteland and farm, help everyone harvest and transport, and transport the grain harvested every year back to Chang'an City, is there any problem with this? ”
