Li Kuan's idea is very simple, whether to help the Feng family or not is not up to him.

Wang Qi taught him before, there is a figure of Li Shimin in this matter, then he Li Kuan is capable, and he will not stand with the Feng family, where his identity and status come from, he is still very clear.

In the palace, Li Shimin saw the Lingnan native products sent by Li Kuan, laughed twice, left half of them, and asked people to send them back to Li Kuan, and replied: "Lingnan native products, the taste is good." ”

That night, Feng Ang and Cheng Zhijie were released.

At night, Feng Ang and Feng Zhidai looked at each other at their home in Chang'an City.

"How?"

Feng Ang was the first to speak.

"Although the King of Chu is young, but the oil and salt do not enter, he handed over the gold to His Majesty, and His Majesty returned to the Chu Palace, it is obvious that he is waiting for His Majesty to speak."

Feng Zhidai frowned, if this matter involves Li Shimin, then it will be difficult for them to handle.

Hearing this, Feng Ang closed his eyes, and then opened them again: "Are you sure that Li Kuan, the king of Chu, has other tools for clearing the wasteland?" ”

Feng Zhidai nodded, there must be.

Feng Ang sighed and said, "Come into the palace with me tomorrow and present the medicine for the treatment of Lingnan miasma to Your Majesty." ”

"We can lose to the emperor, but we can't lose to the family."

Feng Ang said extremely helplessly.

Feng Zhidai sighed, and it could only be like this.

The next day, Feng Ang and Feng Zhidai entered the palace, and then the three provinces issued a holy decree to reward the Feng family.

The father and son of the Feng family, dedicated to the country, dedicated drugs for the treatment of miasma, and were willing to produce them on a large scale and contribute to the opening up of Lingnan.

Immediately afterwards, at lunchtime, Li Kuan was called out by Li Xiaogong and went to the palace.

Li Shimin invited the Feng family father and son to the banquet, and Li Kuan and Li Xiaogong accompanied him.

At the wine table, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, and both sides drank happily.

After three rounds of drinking, Li Shimin was slightly drunk, retreated, and introduced Li Kuan to Feng Ang before leaving.

"This is the main person in charge of our Royal Investment Bank, Chu Wang Li Kuan, and you can talk about the rest."

Li Kuan also knew Li Shimin's attitude for this reason, and scratched his head and said helplessly: "General Feng, Feng Tingshi, I'll tell you the truth, no matter how advanced the tools are, he can't finish clearing Lingnan in one year." ”

"Your main problem in Lingnan is still in the organization of personnel."

Is there a shortage of people in Lingnan?

In Li Kuan's view, there is no shortage of people.

But Lingnan is too complicated, the barbarian tribes, the Han forces led by the Feng family, and some miscellaneous cave masters and the like.

A group of people, you have lived mine, I have lived yours, no one cares about anyone.

Is this strange shape of power really something that can be solved by some new tools?

Are you sure you won't be held back?

And, are you sure that the family won't hold you back?

I suspect that the families, who are mainly surnamed five and seven wangs, will most likely play with multi-party investment and forcibly let your Feng family rest in peace.

Although Li Kuan complained endlessly, he finally agreed to Feng Ang and others to build a factory in Lingnan, and the Royal Investment Bank professionally injected capital, but in exchange, the official appointments in Lingnan needed to be returned to the imperial court, and at the same time, the reclaimed sugarcane land must be used as collateral.

Li Kuan has new-style tools, and it is still okay to throw the new-style agricultural tools of the Southern Song Dynasty outside.

As for the effect, Li Kuan smiled, and I don't guarantee the effect.

After this matter was over, Feng Ang and his son hurriedly rushed back to Lingnan, their idea was very simple, plant the land and plant sugarcane.

With a big sword in one hand and benevolence in the other, let those barbarians work together with their Feng family.

The Royal Investment House sent a team of guards and craftsmen to follow and build factories and give them tools for production.

This situation also made the family see something, the Feng family looks like they can't die this year, but I want to eat sugarcane money? What to do.

They set their sights on Li Shimin's right to appoint Lingnan officials that he had exchanged from Feng An.

The Feng family was the emperor of Lingnan four years before Wude, and they were also the actual controllers of Lingnan, and the officials there were appointed by the Feng family themselves during the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty.

After Wude surrendered in the fourth year, Li Yuan had no way to intervene forcefully, which made it particularly troublesome for the official invasion of Lingnan, and the progress could not be said to be particularly slow, but only to say that there was no progress at all.

Now that Feng Ang handed over a part of the bet in order to make the bet possible, the family naturally wanted to rush up and follow Li Shimin to eat a part.

Each family uses its own relationships, you recommend one, I recommend one, Li Shimin takes a few by himself, and soon the positions handed over by Lingnan will be completed.

Li Kuan listened to Wang Ju about these things, and Wang Ju had not resigned from the Huangmen Shilang and was still messing with him.

During this time, Wang Jue took the promotion of the household department, as well as the list of officials counted for Li Shimin, and explained the background of these officials to Li Kuan.

Don't look at this person's surname Li, but he is a protégé of the Cui family.

That person's surname is Liu, and he is married to a daughter of the Lu family.

This person's surname is Zhang, and he is the concubine of the Zhang family in Hanoi.

......。

Seeing this, Li Kuan felt that Nima's, the significance of the imperial examination in this era is probably to whitewash the peace.

Who made Wang Jue say something like that: "Their promotion path is in the hands of the family." ”

"Except for the top few who came out of the imperial examination, they entered His Majesty's eyes at the beginning and were left in Chang'an City, and the rest, as long as they were sent to the place, it would not take three years for them to become what the family needed."

"And among the top few, you still have to remove the heirs of the family, the students who came out of the private schools run by the family, and the poor families who colluded with the family, how many geniuses did you decide to educate the pure people?"

The corners of Wang Jue's mouth were full of ridicule when he said this, the imperial examination is a joke in this era when there is no universal education.

The poor family is a declining family, and their dream is to become a family.

The landlord's dream is also to become a family.

Origins of the common people? Are you telling jokes?

Li Kuan scratched his head, it was really difficult.

However, it has little to do with him, Li Kuan said casually: "To put it bluntly, the current imperial examination is to open an upward channel, the family relies on the monopoly of education, monopolizing him in disguise, Your Majesty is to win over the cold and the landlords, the purpose is to cultivate opponents for the family that eats cake now, and then meet the source left and right, balance the situation, and then take the opportunity to become bigger." ”

Wang Jue nodded in approval of his words, and said with a smile: "That's right, after all, the cake is limited, the family eats a big head, and ambitious people have to eat a bite, so they can only grab it from the family's mouth, and the imperial power is the support they need." ”

Wang Jue looked at Li Kuan with satisfaction, and praised his educational ability, it was really good, and he trained His Royal Highness the King of Chu very well.

Scratching his head, Li Kuan smiled casually: "After reading the list you counted for Your Majesty, I have an idea, the Feng family will be finished sooner or later." ”

"If I were a son of a family, the first thing I would do when I entered Lingnan was to find a way to let the county government soldiers kill the barbarian leaders under their jurisdiction, organize the barbarians into households, and extract part of the family strength to teach them Chinese, so that they could become Han Chinese."

"The land obtained by the barbarians is disguised as a way to pay military expenses for the family behind them, and this only needs to let his family pay a large amount of military expenses in advance, and the government has no money, so the land is mortgaged."

"In the end, the reward of the government soldiers will be given, and the son of the family will get the credit of educating the barbarians, and the family will get the land for planting sugar cane, how good."

"I pondered that if I did this for a year, the territory that originally belonged to the Feng family in Lingnan would become the Tang Dynasty, and the barbarians would gradually disappear."

"If the barbarians in the middle gather to attack the Tang Dynasty, we just send troops to strangle the barbarians, and we have also got a way to treat the miasma anyway."

"As for the Feng family, it's not bad to destroy it."

The more Li Kuan said that his eyes were brighter, and he felt that there was nothing wrong with his operation.

A trace of shock flashed in Wang Jue's eyes after hearing this, Made, this little ghost is so bad.

I like it, though.

Wang Jue silently wrote down Li Kuan's words and wrote them into two copies, one for Li Shimin and one for the families.

Wang Ju told Li Kuan about his behavior, Li Kuan shrugged his shoulders and said casually: "Isn't this quite good?" ”

"When the family reclaims the land, we still have to buy our tools from the Lingnan factory."

"We'll be able to sell a lot of money then."

"As for whether Feng Ang will be played to death, I can only say that swallowing a Feng family makes a lot more money than exploiting the people of Lingnan."

Li Kuan's ugly face made Wang Qi praise him, and said that you were right.

Feng An, who returned to Lingnan, didn't know that a group of hungry wolves had been eyeing him.
