It is said that he got very drunk when he returned home, crying and shouting that he must be loyal to the emperor.
Yang Xuan said he didn't care about these ants, but Wang Laoer refused. He led the National People's Congress to squat outside the camp at night, and was so frightened that his followers came to ask for mercy the next day.
Yang Xuan casually said that the second child knew the rules and was just going to enjoy the cool weather.
It's such a shame, it's such a cold weather at night, who are you trying to fool?
The entourage did not dare to argue, and while trembling with cold, he said to leave immediately, leave immediately.
He felt that Yang Xuan ordered Wang Laoer to stay there just to force him and his party to leave.
People are like this. When they feel something is not going well, they will blame others for their own unhappiness.
But Yang Xuan really doesn't like Tian Xin and his party.
He just passed through Tian Xin and made a move through the air with Li Mi from Chang'an.
Afterwards, the tool man Tian Xin and others were naturally not in his eyes.
When I get up in the morning, I first ask about Zhou Ning's situation.
"It's okay. Someone from Xuanxue will come to check my pulse today."
Zhou Ning's face looked a little swollen, and Yang Xuan thought of that girl back then, and couldn't help but feel a little distracted.
"Zitai!"
Zhou Ning stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes.
Yang Xuan held her hand and said, "Aning, why don't we just have two children!"
Zhou Ning was stunned, and then said gently: "I know."
"Aye!"
There is nothing more invigorating than hearing your children screaming early in the morning.
"Wealth." A Liang suddenly shouted.
"Woof woof woof!"
Yang Xuan heard A Liang's cry was different and hurried out.
A mouse rushed in front of A Liang. The swordsman was lazily not far away. It was obvious that the mouse was the one that came here.
Fugui rushed over, stood in front of A-Liang, and slapped him away with his paw.
The mouse turned and wanted to escape, but at some point, the swordsman appeared in front, looked at it indifferently, and clapped his paws.
The mouse turned and rushed towards A Liang again.
Fugui roared filial piety and grabbed it with one paw.
The mouse was hit by a paw, turned over, and died.
A Liang stared blankly at the dead mouse. Zhou Ning came out, frowning and wanting to speak.
"Shh!"
Yang Xuan put his hand on his lips and shook his head slightly.
Ah Liang walked over and kicked the mouse away with a staggering kick.
The corners of Yang Xuan's mouth turned up slightly.
Wealth roared filial piety to the swordsman.
The swordsman jumped over lightly and grabbed Fugui's neck in a few moments. His eyes were cold and Yang Xuan was sure that if he hadn't been here, he would have bitten him down.
"swordsman!"
Ah Liang yelled, and the swordsman let go of his mouth, slapped Fugui down with his paw, then walked to Ah Liang and yelled filial piety at him.
"What is the swordsman going to do?" Zhou Ning was puzzled.
"Look." Yang Xuan smiled.
The swordsman walked up to the dead mouse, stretched out his paw, and slapped it away with a false paw, then raised his head and shouted filial piety to A Liang.
Then, the figure flashed...
Zhou Ning covered her mouth, "Why does it look like you are teaching A Liang to hunt?"
"Yes!" Yang Xuan said: "The swordsman felt that A Liang was old enough to learn hunting, so he taught him. But Fu Gui stopped him. Fortunately, he was at home, otherwise Fu Gui would be finished with the previous one."
"Is this good or bad?" Zhou Ning asked.
"I think it's not a bad thing!"
"Why?"
"The road ahead is long, and I don't know how many obstacles A Liang will encounter. I hope he will have the courage and ability to overcome those obstacles."
"I understand."
Zhou Ning was just a little confused because she was about to give birth, so she ordered: "Come here."
"Madam!" Huahong stepped forward.
"Tell the kitchen to give the swordsman the best mutton today!"
"yes!"
…
Yang Xuan went to the Jiedushi Mansion.
"Spring is for military training."
Song Zhen became the leader of Northern Xinjiang and carried out his work very consciously. When the new official took office, he put forward several suggestions.
"Spring training, by the way, I think it's time to expand the army."
Song Zhen had obviously discussed this matter with Liu Qing, and Liu Qing said: "Yes! Northern Xinjiang is going to attack northward. The farther forward, the more dispersed the troops will be. And we have to beware of a possible surprise attack from Chang'an."
Attacking northward is a strategy that Yang Xuan set last year. Starting from the twelfth year of Daqian, the strategic focus of the entire northern Xinjiang will be on this area.
There are currently 120,000 troops in Northern Xinjiang, which seems to be a lot, but Northern Xinjiang is completely bordered by Northern Liao, and troops are needed everywhere. As a result, the troops are dispersed.
Next is Chang'an.
After becoming the enemy of Chang'an, Northern Xinjiang must adjust its troop deployment and move some troops behind to guard against possible sneak attacks from the south.
During the Huang Chunhui era, although the relationship with Chang'an was tense, it was far from the level where we needed to be wary of sneak attacks by the other party.
During the Yang Xuan era, this trouble came quietly.
Neither Liu Qing nor Song Zhen mentioned this matter, so it was regarded as taboo for the venerable people.
"I know that some people in Beijiang say that I should not fall out with Chang'an. At least, I should wait for a few years. I will wait until Beijiang's strength makes Chang'an dare not say anything before taking action."
Yang Xuan said: "But the tree wants to be quiet but the wind is not stopping. Chang'an's suppression of our northern Xinjiang is not because of my attitude towards Chang'an. From the moment we captured Neizhou, Chang'an's attitude towards northern Xinjiang cannot be turned back. This One thing, you need to analyze and explain this with the officials and generals below."
The most taboo things within a group are suspicion and dissatisfaction.
"yes."
The two agreed.
Yang Xuan felt that the atmosphere was a little tense, so he smiled and said: "Last year I thought about expanding the army. Liu Gong said that expanding the army would not only require money and food, but also life. This year, Liu Gong changed his mind. It can be seen that he has made a fortune!"
Liu Qing said with a smile: "Although land reclamation is tax-free for three years, the people have to sell the grain they have in their hands. After selling the grain, they can't help but buy it when they have living money. Food, clothing, housing and transportation cost money everywhere. Businessmen, workers Fangdu has made a lot of money. Last year, the taxes we collected from this area in Northern Xinjiang increased by 20%."
"A rising tide lifts all boats."
Yang Xuan said.
"Oh!" Song Zhen doesn't know much about economics, but now that he and Liu Qing are in charge of political affairs in Northern Xinjiang, they are exposed to countless affairs in this area every day, and they urgently need to learn.
"Zitai, tell me."
"The economy is divided into two categories, one is under the guidance and control of the Jiedushi government, and the other is left alone. The Jiedushi government only controls taxes."
Various control tools from another world are useless in this era.
"When I was in Chang'an, I saw that Chang'an's economy was in a state of neglect. The government only knew how to collect taxes. It didn't care how the merchants operated or how the farmers farmed."
"These are the current methods of operation. I feel that it is not good to let things go, and it is not good to control them too carefully."
"How to control it?" Song Zhen asked, "For many years, the government has never cared about this."
"Why can't you control it?" Yang Xuan said.
"I haven't seen the Jiedushi Mansion taking care of it!" Song Zhen was puzzled.
Yang Xuan said: "Do you still remember the battle that the powerful people of Northern Xinjiang fought with us?"
"Food war?"
Song Zhen squinted his eyes, "In that battle, the powerful people tightened their grip on food sales and the price of food on the market soared..."
"They didn't know that Zitai had already prepared and used a two-pronged approach to drive down the price of food." Liu Qing said with a smile: "In that battle, the powerful people in northern Xinjiang suffered a lot."
Yang Xuan said: "This is a type of regulation."
Song Zhen's eyes lit up, "Is this upper-level regulation?"
"right."
Yang Xuan continued: "As the Jiedu Envoy, what we have to do is control from a high position, rather than competing with businessmen for every penny."
Song Zhen picked up the brush, made a pile of blank paper, raised his head, and asked, "Do you have any examples?"
Yang Xuan said: "For example, the grain harvest exceeds northern Xinjiang's actual needs. So, what should we do?"
Song Zhen recorded it, Liu Qing glanced at him, curled his lips, and thought to himself: Is this necessary to remember?
"Under such circumstances, we must assess the situation and first analyze the relationship between medium and long-term food demand and supply. If it is determined that oversupply is only a short-term behavior, then the Jiedushi government should support food prices and open up purchases. As for harvesting
The grain that comes in can be stored, resold, or made into wine."
"What if supply exceeds demand in the long run?" Song Zhen dipped his brush in ink and asked.
Why do you look like a student?
Yang Xuan coughed dryly, "Two ways, one is to think about the crops that are currently in short supply on the market, and after analysis, guide farmers to change crops, and provide guidance for sales..."
"Is that so?" Liu Qing picked up the brush.
An official came in a hurry to look for Liu Qing.
"Is Sima Ke here?" he asked at the foot of the steps outside the lobby.
The clerk on duty said softly: "Sima has something to do."
"Then don't drive?" The official looked a little anxious.
"There is something else," the clerk said. Seeing that the official was anxious, he asked, "But there is some urgent business?"
The official nodded, "Yes!"
"Let me see."
The clerk walked up the steps and took a look inside. When he turned around, he saw the officials following him closely, looking intently into the lobby.
"... There is a fixed number of wealth, which is about the destiny of an individual. How can the wealth of a group or a region be fixed? This is pure nonsense!"
Yang Xuan stood with his hands behind his hands, frowning slightly.
Song Biejia held the writing brush in his hand, raised his head and said: "Everyone in Chang'an said so about a lot of knowledge."
"How did they find out?" Yang Xuan asked.
"What the sages said."
"Do the sages know the current situation?"
"Of course I don't know."
"Times have changed, and asking for everything from old papers is not bad, but stupid."
Yang Xuan sneered at those idiots unceremoniously, "Wealth comes from human creation, workshops, commerce, and agriculture. Let me give you a simple example. Let me give you a simple example. Let's talk about our northern Xinjiang. The annual grain output ten years ago is not what it is now.
high?"
Song Zhen shook his head and suddenly realized, "Ten years ago, there weren't so many iron tools, including cattle, horses and sheep."
"That's it!" Liu Qing wrote quickly.
The economy is the top priority of the Jiedushi government. Yang Xuan has long wanted to talk to several of his main assistants about this matter, and today is an opportunity.
"As I said before, the Jiedushi government's economic control must be precise and must be confirmed repeatedly after repeated investigations. This requires us to understand the economy and understand the economic laws.
This is something that not only you two have to learn, but others as well. I don’t want to see the person in power make a decision at the drop of a hat, and then make a coward after suffering heavy losses.”
"yes!"
Yang Xuan said: "If you want to understand economics, you must first clarify the purpose of economic development. If you get the purpose wrong, you will go in the opposite direction."
"The purpose of economic development is to enrich the people and the country and strengthen the army. This is the order. If you get the order wrong, you will put the cart before the horse and the decisions you make will be completely confusing."
"First enrich the people?" Song Zhen asked: "Shouldn't we first strengthen the army?"
"Does the current Tang Dynasty and Northern Xinjiang have powerful and disturbing enemies?"
Song Zhen shook his head.
"Then, the first purpose of economic development at present is to enrich the people. Only when the people are rich can the economy develop in an all-round way.
Let me give you an example: last year's harvest was good, and those farmers who opened up wasteland were exempted from tax for three years. Many people were jealous and suggested that taxes should be collected. I dismissed two officials, and this suppressed this trend.
Let’s look at this year again. Last year, farmers had a good harvest and no taxes were collected. Business is booming, workshops are getting bigger and bigger, wine shops, cloth shops, animal husbandry, and even small stalls and hawkers, all walks of life have benefited from this.
.Subsequently, the taxes collected by governments at all levels increased massively..."
Yang Xuan pointed to the void, "What is this? This is a small river with water and a big river full. This is to make the steamed buns bigger first, and then distribute the profit. What is the economy? This is the economy."
"Economy is not about fishing from the marsh. Economics is a science, and there are no answers in the books of sages."
"So, where should we go to find answers?" Song Zhen asked.
"Go to the people, to the workshops, to the fields, to the markets. Go to talk to the people, talk to the craftsmen, go to the farmers, go to talk to the businessmen... Only by bending down can you learn the real skills. Then sit down and
Those who rely on so-called sages’ books and conjecture to make decisions in the hotel room are all idiots!”
After saying that, Yang Xuan felt that it was time to end today.
My mouth is a little dry, but where is the water?
These petty officials are becoming more and more outrageous.
You have to set the rules again!
Yang Xuan turned around, frowning and preparing to scold.
But I saw people outside the door.
The clerks, the officials... everyone was holding paper in their left hand and a pen in their right hand, and they were all busy writing.
…
Yang Xuan did not expect that one of his lectures would stir up the entire Jiedushi government.
Returning to the check-in room, He Lianyan came to see him.
"Mr. Lang, although I don't understand, when I listen to those words, I feel that every word is worth a thousand dollars. This kind of knowledge should not be passed on to the outside world. Do you want to keep it secret?"
"threaten?"
"Yes! Whoever dares to leak a word from Mr. Lang today will have the whole family exiled!"
"No need to be murderous."
"Mr. Lang didn't see that Pan Rong, the chief minister in Jiedushi's palace, used to say that the Duke of the country is wise when he met everyone."
Pan Rong was the head of the Jiedushi Mansion, and he was at the top of the imperial examination in high school. However, he was too obedient, and he offended his superiors and colleagues, and was later pushed to northern Xinjiang.
When this man arrived in Northern Xinjiang, he was full of complaints. He felt that he had great talents but could not be reused. In his words, even Liu Qing and Song Zhen did not take him seriously.
"No need to worry about it."
"Those knowledge spread..."
"I just said it casually."
He Lianyan: "..."
"Mr. Lang."
Lin Feibao came in, "There's a letter from the south."
Yang Lue?
Yang Xuan's heart tightened, and then he felt happy.
"I'm going home."
Yang Xuan got up and went out.
When I arrived at the front, I saw Pan Rong talking to several colleagues.
"...Those idiots in Chang'an must have said that the sages once said that they have no opinion when it comes to the economy. They talk sharply on paper, but they are messed up in practice. If the Duke's words are spread to Chang'an today, they will definitely make those idiots
stunned."
Someone said: "Mr. Pan, you used to be looked down upon by everyone."
The thin Pan Rong coughed dryly and said, "I look down on others, but the Duke of the State is the one Pan admires."
He Lianyan stood behind, and He Lianrong came quietly, "The Duke's words, if spread out, will be a hard-earned recipe for governing the country. Do you want to be banned?"
"The Duke forbids it." He Lianyan shook his head.
"Why?" He Lianrong was puzzled, "Whether it is Ningxing or Chang'an, they will definitely make the decision to keep it secret."
He Lianyan looked at the aloof Chief Pan and said, "Mr. Lang said that those words were just what he said casually."
"Just talking?" He Lianrong's cheeks trembled.
"Yes, do you know the meaning of this?"
"Those words about the economy are only a small part of the Duke's vast knowledge."
