"Let's call it the Tiger Kun, and the bigger one is the Hukback Kun."

Liu Ke saw the killer whale playing with the soldiers on the shore, so he directly decided on the name.

In the eyes of others, there is no doubt that it is auspicious, and there is no need to change the famous legendary creature Kun to another name.

Just categorize it a little bit.

The destiny of [Ecological Investigation] not only allowed Liu Ke to have some experience in ecological research.

Basically, as long as you walk around an area for a while, and explore it carefully, you can sort out the ecology of the flora and fauna in the area.

If you have this destiny when you are in Jiaozhi, you don't need to taste all kinds of herbs.

And during the few months that Liu Ke stayed in Zhibi Port, he drove a donkey-headed boat around to do ecological surveys.

I basically touched the nearby sea area, and by the way, I made nautical charts and ecological atlases.

"Tiger Kun? Humpback Kun?? ”

Shen Guang always felt that Emperor Han was connotating himself.

The ancestors of the Puliuru tribe were the Rouran tribe.

At that time, the Han Emperor thought that the people of the Rouran tribe had bad brains, so he ridiculed them as insects who couldn't think.

He also ordered the military and civilians of the whole country to rename the insulting ones "worms".

Over time, "creep" gradually became Ruru.

And then there was Puliuru.

Tiger, that is, the big worm.

It is clearly hinting at the Puliuru Department!

"This tiger kun is quite close to the soldiers."

Fu Xuance was on the side, glanced at Shen Guang, and said:

"This tiger kun is also leading the soldiers to hunt and kill the humpback kun."

"If you don't drag back two humpback kun at a time, it's not easy to deal with, but this time you go to sea, you can catch two kun!"

Shen Guang was stunned again.

I didn't expect this tiger kun to be really like the Puliuru Division.

Even became an inner ghost?!

Can.

Seeing this tiger kun, the small life is really good.

There was food and drink, and there were people to play with.

If anyone bullies it, they can still call the Han army to beat people.

Isn't this much better than the intrigue between the eight departments of Donghu, and being frightened all the time??

"Ahem—"

Fu Xuance coughed lightly, circled around the fish corpse, and said:

"This head kun tastes good, it's a guest from afar, why don't you share it with us and the others?"

"No, no, no."

Shen Guang arched his hand and hurriedly shook his head:

"Don't dare, don't dare!"

How can he still be a guest, he is the courtier of the Han Dynasty, and he is a tiger kun!

"That's so polite."

When Liu Ke still had Shen Guang to use, he was polite and asked Fu Xuance to cook the fish and meat.

He himself cut some kun, fat with fat.

Put the fat on the rack of the fat in an iron pot and boil it in oil.

Liu Ke didn't know too much about oil refining, so he could only use this relatively primitive oil refining method.

"The emperor of the Great Song Dynasty is actually not so useless."

"I'm going to use it now, but I'm a little nostalgic."

"Song Huizong's oil refining destiny must be good."

As for the meat, it is sold on the spot.

Liu Ke doesn't care, this belongs to the trophies of the sailors, and the price is set by themselves.

You don't need to shout, it's already extremely demanding.

Ordinary people, that is, buy a little and try it.

The big family has to smell He Kun's smell and come over.

This group of luxurious and comparable families really want to taste this kun meat.

Directly on the car to buy.

He Kun bought a lot in the name of He's family.

Fish in coastal ports is already cheap.

Plus the gimmick of kun meat.

When it changes hands elsewhere, it is always profitable.

All of a sudden, in this port, in addition to the crowd of people eating melons who were watching, there were many cars.

People are like cars.

It's not just meat.

He Kun also bought Kunxue.

The things on the Kun's body, can there be anything bad?

Even if it's useless, as long as it is said to be able to nourish yin and replenish yang, it will not worry about sales.

On Liu Ke's side, Kun oil was also burned.

After the grease was heated and cooled and solidified, nearly 100,000 catties of oil were produced.

"The loss is less than the previous one, and the soldiers are all skilled."

In this way, there will be a reserve of nearly 200,000 golden kun oil.

"Fu Aiqing, let He Qing see this kun oil."

Fu Xuance gave up his hand, took a few spoonfuls of oil, inserted a wick and lit it.

He Kun was stunned.

originally thought that everything that came to Fu Xuance's hands was for eating.

He looked at the white and greasy kun oil, and even a little greedy.

Unexpectedly, it can be used directly as a candle flame?

I saw the wick in Fu Xuance's hand ignite and emit a bright light.

You can see it even in broad daylight.

It was much brighter than the ordinary candle flame.

"There's a faint scent of it."

Fu Xuance snapped and broke the neck of a roasted chicken.

The head is given to Geng Sanji to study new ships, and they use their bodies to study new recipes, which is very fair.

"Let's light it first, let's eat and drink."

There are chickens and fish, even with He Kun's net worth, it is a rare gluttonous feast.

Shen Guang was even more greedy.

Not only kun meat, but even chicken!

You must know that now the entire Puliuru department is up and down, smelling the chicken's color.

Puliuru Amor himself personally promulgated the ban on chickens.

It can only be fed up, and the tribe has subsidies.

But you can't kill.

Not to mention the folk, even the nobles of the headquarters want to eat some chicken, it is difficult to ascend to the sky.

After eating for a while, He Kun wiped his mouth.

Suddenly, I turned my head, but I saw that the oil was still burning.

"After ordering Kun oil for so long, you can hardly see the loss?!"

You know, ordinary candles don't burn for long.

If the quality is better, it will only take an hour or two, and if the quality is worse, it will be gone in half an hour.

And for ordinary people, they can't afford candles at all.

In Kuang Heng's early years, he even had to dig the wall and steal the light to study hard.

Although it is quite fake, it is enough to show the preciousness of candles.

"Send this candle to the Chinese martial arts, so that at night, they can also handle official business."

Liu Ke paused and looked at He Kun:

"What do you think, how is this candle?"

He Kun's eyebrows fluttered for a while, and the fat on his body was shaking, and he estimated that if he ordered him, he could burn it for a long time:

"This is a treasure!"

"Kun candles are resistant to burning, and accompanied by a strange fragrance, a humphead kun, I am afraid that nearly one million kun candles can be made!"

"If it is used for buying and selling, is it a strange thing to live in?"

"Odd goods. Habitable?! ”

He Kun was shocked.

The emperor is willing to sell such treasures?

He immediately bowed his hand and said:

"I'm afraid it's in short supply!"

This is not kun meat and kun skin, there can be substitutes.

Candles, night lighting.

It is essential for the reader, and with the quality of the candle, there is almost no substitute.

Liu Ke put a homemade Kun candle in He Kun's hand and said:

"The Maritime Silk Road, the first stop, is Luzon."

"He Qing, you and the nobles of the family, as well as the sailor, discuss it together."

"Let's see how to sell this candle to Luzon, and how the soldiers should escort the merchant ships."

"This"

He Kun was stunned, only to feel that the candle in his hand weighed more than a thousand catties.

"Your Majesty allows the big family to go to sea to do business, and even use the Han Navy to escort them?"

It's nothing to go to sea to do business, if it's really profitable, even if the imperial court prohibits it, they can engage in smuggling.

But let the sailor cooperate, it will be terrible.

The combat effectiveness of the sailors who can go out to sea to catch kun is self-evident.

Moreover, when trading with other countries, there is a big Han sailor behind him, and his waist board is harder.

"Nature."

Liu Ke nodded and said very seriously:

"The Maritime Silk Road will have heavy profits."

"The court can make profits, but it can't stand in the way of the people."

The imperial court monopolized the maritime trade business, although it could make a lot of money, but if it ate alone, it would inevitably be criticized by the mouth.

Zheng He went to the West, in fact, he made a lot of money.

But all the money went to the treasury.

Only by making the maritime trade business bigger and allowing everyone to participate in it, can the Maritime Silk Road endure.

And Liu Ke also knew in his heart that although there was the destiny of [free trade], the imperial court did not have much worth trading now.

It is not possible to maximize the benefits of this destiny.

That's why he deliberately hunted whales and used kunkun as a trade commodity.

And with the participation of the family, some valuable things can be brought to the table.

At the same time, the sailors and soldiers can also supervise the family to a certain extent.

"Your Majesty Shengming!!"

He Kun bowed from the bottom of his heart.

There have been many emperors who can make money throughout the ages.

But the emperor who can bring everyone to earn money together is unique.

He Kun felt more and more that he had succeeded in standing in line.

Although the big families in Qiongzhou were in the hands of the emperor, they were beaten batch after batch.

But those who survived had a good life.

Not only can you enter the court as an official, but you can even participate in the "Maritime Silk Road" of the imperial court.

If it can really be like the Silk Road in the Western Regions back then, the benefits can be imagined!

He Kun immediately discussed with Gan Wenban and Fu Xuance how to go to sea and how to go to Luzon.

If you go to sea one day late, it will be an extra day of loss!

As a result, the "Maritime Silk Road" and "free trade" are gradually on the right track.

——

Liu Ke returned to the long-lost city of Qiongzhou.

As soon as he returned to the court, he hurriedly summoned Hua Chengyu, Man Huaiying, and Xiao Yuanchang to have a small meeting.

Hua Chengyu saw the other two people who were having a small meeting, and felt a little out of place.

He doesn't have those two people in his brain!

Liu Ke said in a hurry:

"After the rebellion in Qiongzhou, there are few wealthy families with different intentions."

"And a lot of land has been vacated."

"It's better to take the opportunity to clear the land in the state."

That's as it should be.

Not only Qiongzhou, but also Jiaozhou, which was once again under the rule of the Han Dynasty after hundreds of years, and Gaozhou, which was newly recovered, all need land clearance.

Only when the acres of land are ascertained can the tax be collected.

There will be tax evasion and evasion in the private sector.

When Xiao Yuanchang and the three of them heard this, their hearts were tight.

Qingzhang land is not a new word, but it is a matter of urgency.

If the land is not cleared, there will be land annexation.

This leads to a huge disparity between the rich and the poor, the common people have no land to plant, and the wealthy families hide their assets and deliberately evade taxes.

The fiscal revenue of the imperial court will be drastically reduced.

At the time of Emperor Xiaowu, Dong Zhongshu put forward the idea of "limiting the people's famous fields, supporting the insufficient, and plugging the road of merger and annexation".

The imperial court was required to clear the land, ascertain the household registration, and limit the number of individual fields to curb annexation.

Emperor Xiaowu also dared to do it, but if there was a hidden field and wanted to evade taxes, he would throw it to the border.

But it didn't work, and it was hacked for several years.

Emperor Guangwu also did this, and after ascending the throne, he immediately sent officials to clear the land of the whole country.

As a result, in the report of the local government, it was said that "the land in the Nanyang area cannot be checked." ”

It's outrageous.

With a lesson from the past, he turned into rain and coughed a few times, and said with a white face:

"Clearing the land is not a trivial matter, and some people may not be willing."

Xiao Yuanchang was also the head of the jaw and said:

"It's only been a few months since the crowd rolls."

"The big family is already panicking, and at this time, if you attack the land again, I am afraid that it will easily intensify the contradiction between the court and the wealthy family."

"It is the time for cultivation and recuperation, and if this is the case, it will definitely not be conducive to governance."

Man Huaiying frowned and said:

"Isn't the basis of this cultivation and recuperation just the land?"

"Seeing that the autumn harvest is coming, do you let those hidden fields and hidden households reveal the taxes?"

With his ability, he can naturally see that the land of Qingzhang is the biggest obstacle to the family.

Whenever it involves the big family, it will become troublesome.

But he is still not as forward-looking as Chengyu and Xiao Yuanchang.

There is one to say one, and there is two to say two.

Man Huaiying's attitude towards the land of Qingzhang did not surprise Liu Ke.

He is fat and upright, and he was killed from the ranks, not from a big family.

Naturally, he will not leave a little affection for the family.

It's a bit surprising to be able to grow into this body shape, could it be fat?

Liu Ke's fingers tapped on the table, and his tone was deep:

"I know that this land is something that has been swallowed into the mouth of the family."

"If you want them to take it out, it will easily intensify the contradictions between the two sides."

"But we are the imperial court, and the imperial court has to pay baht."

"The poor peasants, tighten their trousers and pay a little tax."

"Only then can the imperial court issue rewards to officials and rewards to soldiers."

"How can someone stay out of the matter and use hidden land and households to evade taxes?"

"Pay less here, pay less there, and the taxes of the entire court will be empty."

"Besides, it's not a small profit."

"The tax on one acre of land is a small amount, but what about multiplying it by 120,000?"

"Which family is not tens of thousands of acres of land at every turn?!"

There was silence for a while.

Even in Jiaozhou, where the power of the big family is not obvious, a wealthy family can copy out 10,000 or 20,000 pieces of land!

Xiao Yuan often knows this, but it is really not easy to clear the land:

"Your Majesty, take a hair and move your whole body."

"The imperial court knows that Qingzhang land can receive a large amount of taxes, and those big families naturally know that it hurts."

"And they think very highly of themselves."

The family is like this, and they always feel that their identity is different from the mud legs in the field.

Why should they pay the same taxes as the ordinary people?

Liu Ke looked at the three of them, his eyes were like torches:

"After Qin Xiaogong, Qin has been a chaotic government for four generations."

"The unprecedented loss of wealth and land, the successive wars, the treasury was exhausted, the west of the river was lost, the letter was different, the countries were humble to Qin, and they did not participate in the alliance."

"After Qin Xiaogong, each has a decree under the four outlines, the whole country has the same law, the order is prohibited, the officials are not greedy, and the people are selfless."

"Qin State, out of the world, industry and martial arts."

"Weak Qin, how to become a strong Qin?"

Several people were stunned.

Hua Chengyu was simply stunned and didn't react.

Xiao Yuanchang and Man Huaiying realized immediately.

When it comes to Qin Xiaogong, it is inseparable from a key person.

Shang.

Shang Ying changed the law and frantically attacked the nobles, which greatly damaged the interests of the nobles.

At the same time, the Qin State swept away the stubborn diseases of the aristocracy, made tax evasion and tax evasion commonplace, and the half-dead Qin State came back to life.

In the end, Qin Shi Huang was able to fight for the remnants of the sixth emperor and defeated the remaining six kingdoms that were still involved in aristocratic politics, and finally unified the world.

"I think"

Liu Ke also has to open his mouth.

was interrupted by Man Huaiying.

The fat face is the same as He Kun, and there is fat on both cheeks.

But this fat is extraordinarily resolute.

"Your Majesty needs no more words."

"The way of the world is not empty talk."

"Man Huaiying, please ask for your life, clear the land of the Han Dynasty for the imperial court!"

Seeing Man Huaiying's move, Liu Ke immediately got up and bowed deeply:

"The public is like a green mountain, and I am like a pine and cypress."

"This matter must be Manqing!"

In fact, Man Huaiying is his favorite candidate.

Originally, Jia Wuji was not dead, this matter was his job.

Liu Ke is also ready to let Man Huaiying follow Jia Wuji, learn for a while, and then reuse it.

It's a pity that the old man died.

can only let Man Huaiying go on top first and catch the ducks on the shelves.

After listening to the emperor's words, Man Huaiying replied deeply:

"Your Majesty's words are serious, it is the duty of being a courtier and worrying about the king, although the minister has not regretted his death!"

I dare to do it, but Man Huaiying knows that if I do this, it will probably end badly.

Let's not talk about Shang Ying, who was liquidated afterwards and divided the corpses of five horses, just Jia Wuji, who offended the family and the family family when he was dying, and pulled a vote for the family to go into the water, and the ending was quite miserable.

An eighty-year-old man, living a late life!

But Man Huaiying didn't care too much.

Shang Yang is Shang Marting, and Jia Wuji is Jia Wuji.

When Gaozhou surrendered, he had already died once.

Moreover, he also has his own reasons.

turned into rain and was confused, but looking at it, this was a big deal, and he was so brainless and loyal that he naturally saluted, and bowed again and again:

"I am willing to die in state affairs!"

Xiao Yuanchang is not a radical person, and he feels that everything can be slowed down.

For example, after ascending the throne, the world is decided, and the court has no foreign enemies, it will be slowly liquidated.

But the atmosphere was already here, and he also gave up:

"Minister, although he dies, he has no regrets."

Seeing that one or two were willing to die, Liu Ke smiled and said:

"I am not Qin Xiaogong, and Zhuqing is not Shang Ying."

"How could I be the kind of king who lets his courtiers die in front of him?"

"Many things seem to be dangerous, but there are caves in them."

"Follow the context, change one step at a time, and you can make it comprehensively."

"I have asked He Kun to discuss with Gan Wenban and Fu Xuance about going to sea."

"The family is allowed to trade at sea, and the sailor can serve as a guard."

"This"

The three of them were taken aback.

I still can't figure it out when it turns into rain.

Man Huaiying and Xiao Yuanchang understood that this was the emperor's concession.

Clearing the land and collecting taxes will certainly make the family hemorrhage.

But the emperor also gave a way to make amends.

For example, this sea trade.

How much they can earn in sea trade, they don't know.

But with such a hard currency as Kun Candle, it will definitely not be lost.

The family has made money in the sea trade, and the resistance to the Qingzhang land will be somewhat lighter.

This is Liu Ke's idea.

Essentially, it's a slap in the face and a sweet date.

He was forcing the family to transform.

From annexing land, to trading across the sea.

Those who are willing to accept Qingzhang and pay taxes honestly are the good people of the Han Dynasty and let you go to sea to do business.

If you don't want to.

"I want to restore, the embroidered clothes envoy system when Emperor Xiaowu was in power."

"Turning into rain, I order you to be the commander of the embroidered clothes, the same as the three products, and supervise the world."

turned into rain and was still immersed in the joy of promotion.

Man Huaiying and Xiao Yuanchang were secretly frightened.

The emperor's courage is not insignificant.

The embroidered commander of the same three products, even if he is not at the peak of Emperor Xiaowu, there must be a lot of soldiers and horses under his command.

This is tantamount to giving them a knife.

One hand of sea trade transfers interests, and the other hand embroiders clothes to make the head of the Ka people.

There are many ways to be full of Huaiying and Xiao Yuanchang.

Xiao Yuanchang immediately advised:

"Your Majesty, the land needs to be cleared from easy to difficult."

"First mobilize enough manpower from the army, and make enough embroidery clothes."

"And then on the basis of the county, let the embroidered clothes make separate actions."

"Let's move the county near Qiongzhou City, where the strength of the family is the weakest."

"Then there is Beipu County, then it falls to Nanpu and Zhenpu two counties, then to Jiaozhou, and finally to Gaozhou."

"You can focus on it, focus on Haoqiang and businessmen, and increase the intensity of Qingzhang, as for the family, the wrist is relatively gentle."

Regarding Xiao Yuanchang's suggestion, Liu Ke agreed very much.

It's hard to get it done all at once.

Pay attention to a step-by-step approach.

Moreover, the differential treatment of families and wealthy families can also make their own internal strife very good.

Liu Ke bowed his head, and then took out a booklet:

"But the word Qingzhang land, don't mention it again in the future."

"Huh?"

Everyone was stunned.

In order to clear the land, they studied for half a day.

There was even a will to die.

And suddenly I didn't mention it?

"Ecological Survey."

Liu Ke said a term that was extremely unfamiliar to everyone.

Then he opened the pamphlet and explained:

"This is some ecological survey I did along the coast of Zhibi Harbor."

"It is precisely because of this that I have found out the distribution of humpback kun and tiger kun."

"Only then was we able to successfully capture the humpback kun and make huge profits."

"You can make a lot of money just by surveying one sea area, and then you can check the land?"

"Perhaps, you can catch any unicorns, dragons and phoenixes, this is an auspicious omen!"

Several people were still puzzled.

But looking at the booklet, I gradually understood.

In the manual of ecological survey, not only the ecological environment of the sea area, but also the current status of animals and plants.

There is also the exact land and hydrological situation.

Even each piece of land measured was numbered.

The shape, height, soil quality, and even the owner of each piece of land are clearly recorded.

When investigating the habitat of animals, the distribution of ethnic groups, and the number of ethnic groups, I checked the land by the way, which is also normal, right?

As for the record of landowners, it is even more reasonable.

Nonsense, what if you have a private hiding?

Do you want to rebel?

Everyone looked at each other.

The Emperor has prepared everything he can for them.

There is not only the transfer of interests in maritime trade, but also the embroidery of clothes as knives, but also the ecological survey, covering the outside world, and being in the name.

In this way, several people discussed the specific operation methods of the ecological survey.

It can be said that it is vigorous and resolute.

Almost on the same day that the embroidery envoys were formed, the ecological survey began.

Xiao Yuan often sits in the center, full of Yingying and turning into rain, and each leads the team to settle in the county near Qiongzhou City.

Soon, though, they ran into trouble.

(End of chapter)
