There is the example of Li Qiong. Those who want to get the road guide in the future must not miss it. This Li Qiong is simply a scam. If you don’t know Li Qiong’s background, you will doubt whether this piece of shit is related to the iron.
The supervisors have colluded.
Li Qiong lay on the ground and waited for a long time without any news, and gradually became a little uneasy. Just when he was retreating, Tie Mo spoke up, "Since you are the first one to stand up and respond, I am the supervisor."
I can’t refute your face, you can go and lead the official trade route in a while, but the promised money and food cannot exceed three days at the latest. After three days, you will be responsible for the consequences.”
Li Qiong was immediately overjoyed, kowtowed a few times, and retreated happily. With Li Qiong as a precedent, the other big business owners looked at each other. Everyone knew the risks of desperately trying to win over the government and commercial roads. Once there was no benefit later, then
But all the money was lost.
Take Li Qiong, for example, he really went bankrupt for the official and commercial route. Once there is no profit, there is only a dead end. Many people are still hesitant, but there are still some bold ones, and some smart people are not attracted by the official and commercial route at all.
, but wanted to take the opportunity to build a good relationship with the Iron Supervisor, so many people still took the risk to grab the spot, and the scene suddenly became heated.
Tie Mo smiled and watched the scene in the manor quietly. Hai Lanzhu tugged on the man's sleeve and whispered, "You succeeded again. These guys have already eaten it for you. It seems that the food problem is temporary."
It should be resolved."
"What are you talking about? This is a matter of mutual benefit, and I'm not trying to trick them into death." Tie Mo curled his lips and didn't take it to heart at all.
There is actually a reason why Tie Mo cheated these people. The rogue bandits have ruled northern Shaanxi for more than ten years, and it can be said that the people have had a hard time living. However, these people still lived an extremely prosperous life when the rogue bandits ruled northern Shaanxi. How much?
The houses of powerful people were looted by rogue bandits, but only these people had nothing to do. Even the Lei family was able to expand their business. It would be nonsense to say that these people were not colluding with the rogue bandits.
Yan'an Mansion is back in the hands of the imperial court. These people can be considered good citizens, and the reconstruction of Yan'an Mansion will require the help of this group of people in the future. Tie Mo can't settle old scores with these people, and can only take the opportunity to punish them slightly. Of course, if someone doesn't
If you know your interests, that's a different story.
Lei Dongze's face was gloomy, and there was a short, thin middle-aged man next to him. He was the head of the Maitreya Sect in Yan'an, the wealthy businessman He Qingzhou. He Qingzhou was more anxious than Lei Dongze. When the drinking restriction order came out, although the Li family
The wealth will shrink significantly, but at least it can survive. However, Tie Mo is in charge of Yan'an Prefecture, and with his attitude towards Maitreya Sect and Jin Chan Sect, it will be difficult for Maitreya Sect to gain a foothold in Yan'an Prefecture in the future.
If you want to avoid this, there is only one way, and that is to strike first. Taking advantage of the chaos in Yan'an Mansion and the unstable foothold of the Northern Shanxi Army, anything is possible. Gradually, a hint of sinister color flashed in He Qingzhou's eyes.
Rebellion, as soon as the idea came up, it became bigger and bigger like a tide, and it was out of control.
He Qingzhou is an extremely smart man. He clearly knows that the strength of the Maitreya Sect alone cannot affect the overall situation. He has been paying attention to the expressions on the faces of various large households, and soon found Lei Dongze. When he saw Lei Dongze
There was an angry look on Dongze's face. After thinking about it for a moment, he understood the reason.
The Lei family is the largest wine merchant. The Iron Superintendent issued a liquor restriction order. Wouldn’t it cost the Lei family their lives? No wonder Lei Dongze’s expression was so bad. Walking to Lei Dongze’s side with a cane, He Qingzhou saluted.
, smiled elegantly and said, "Boss Lei, I have plenty of time in the evening. I wonder if you can give me a little face to hang out with me for a while?"
Lei Dongze looked at He Qingzhou in front of him and frowned tightly. He had never had any dealings with He Qingzhou, but seeing He Qingzhou's smiling expression, he did not refuse. The banquet was still going on, but Lei Dongze's
His mind has already flown elsewhere. What exactly does He Qingzhou want to do, is it a good thing or a bad thing?
At the last three minutes, this grand manor banquet finally came to an end. The big family members left in twos and threes. Some were happy and some were worried. In any case, Tie Mo had achieved the expected goal. With a series of policies going on, as the name of the official and businessmen became famous,
After being rated down, the entire Yan'an Prefecture's dignitaries
It has been divided into two factions. The combination of interests is more solid. A simple high-pressure policy cannot maintain long-term stability. Of course, there will definitely be some voices of dissatisfaction among these big households, and they may even do something excessive. Knowing this,
Tie Mo could only wait patiently.
After nightfall, Meihuayu Manor regained its tranquility. A table was set up in the courtyard, and a few people casually had something to eat. Yan'an Prefecture was almost captured, but for Tie Mo, the real road had just begun, to capture Yan'an.
The ultimate goal is to build a passage across northern Shanxi and Bashu. Only in this way can one's existing interests be stabilized.
Hai Lanzhu knew why Tie Mo was worried, but he couldn't help him for a while. He peeled off an orange and put it to his mouth, "Let's eat something first. There are so many things that can't be rushed. Let's
Now we not only have to guard against those who are interested, but we also have to figure out how to deal with the tigers and wolves in the court. Although Northern Shaanxi is not a good place, they are not happy to fall into our hands."
"Well, you send a message to Zhang Bei and ask Chen Zilong to bring some people to Yan'an. The management of Yan'an Mansion must be improved bit by bit." As soon as Tie Mo finished speaking, Hai Lanzhu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "
Husband, you’d better take this idea back. Chen Zilong is still in charge of Wulan City and
He is very busy with things on the grassland, and he has to take care of the news in Liaodong recently. He doesn't have that much energy to take care of the affairs of Yan'an. So, let Chen Mu do it, and let Chen Zilong choose some reliable people, he can always control Yan'an Mansion.
Enrich your management. You can’t rush these things, you have to do them step by step.”
Tie Mo smiled coquettishly, and then touched his forehead gloomily. Chen Zilong was steady and loyal. It was most suitable to be in Yan'an Mansion, but his energy was limited after all. Of course Chen Mu was not bad, but so far, besides being in Zhangbei, Chen Mu
He has not yet shouldered too much of a burden, and I am really worried that he will not be able to cope with the complex situation in Yan'an Prefecture. However, due to various considerations, we can only adopt Hai Lanzhu's suggestion.
As for the matter of connecting northern Shanxi and Bashu, there are some difficulties. According to Tie Mo's idea, it is necessary to build an official road directly connecting Zhangbei and Chengdu. The official road plans to use cement bluestone method. The problem is such a huge workload
, the manpower and material resources required are immeasurable. After all, it is all money and food. "This is really a headache. There are too few young people in Yan'an now. Even if they are all captured as coolies, it will not be enough."
Hai Lanzhu covered her mouth and chuckled, pointed her finger at Tie Mo's forehead, and said slowly, "You are so smart that your cleverness leads you to the wrong. Why are you always staring at the Yan'an Mansion? There are many rogue bandits, those
What are the prisoners used for? After years of development in northern Shanxi, the population has also surged. Why not think of some solutions here? And isn't there also progress in Siberia? You send an official document to Ivanjie and Niu'er and ask them to snatch people for you.
That's it. Those bearded men are having a hard time. They come to work here and have food and shelter. What else can they do? The people of the Ming Dynasty can definitely be mobilized. As long as they participate in the construction of the east-west official road, they will not only provide food and drink, pay wages, and build
After twenty miles, villages can be built, and the people left behind will be allocated local land by the court to live and cultivate for generations. For the people, land is the greatest wealth. However, in Bashu and Shaanxi, where rogue bandits were raging and the population was sparse, there was no shortage of people.
All you need is land. As long as you promise these lands, are you afraid that you won’t be able to recruit people? So, what needs to be solved most is food.”
After listening to Hai Lanzhu's method, something suddenly flashed in Tie Mo's mind. What Hai Lanzhu said was actually very similar to the construction of the Great Western Railway in the United States in later generations. The land attracted labor, and at the same time, the villages formed along the line.
, and also formed settlements one after another. During the construction of the Great Western Railway in the United States in later generations, many railway towns and even cities were formed. With the Great Western Railway radiating from the north to the south, large areas were no longer deserted and civilization was formed.
Now we can definitely learn from the method of the Western Railway. He clapped his hands and sat up straight, "Okay, let's do it. Zhu'er, please help me draft a document and send it to Zhang Bei together."
Order the establishment of a Development Department and mobilize merchants to invest in the construction of official roads. After the construction of official roads is completed, the annual profits will be distributed in proportion."
Hai Lanzhu stroked his forehead and blinked. This guy is really a strange person. He always does business with merchants under the guise of the imperial court. In the world, except for Liu Hong in the late Han Dynasty, this inspector is the best at doing business. "You
Yeah, what do you think? In order to build a city on the Hanhai Grassland, we forced the imperial court to do some business, and now we let the Ministry of Household Affairs do the business."
"Tsk, tsk, both the court and the merchants have benefits, how can they object? Building such a long-distance official road is a bottomless pit. If we don't mobilize the merchants, just relying on ourselves, it will probably be emptied out in less than two years.
"We can't afford such a big expense." Just building a city in Hanhai Grassland is enough for the court, let alone building such a long official road.
But this official road must be built. With the current traffic conditions, it will take a month and a half at the fastest from Zhangbei to Chengdu. Once the official road is built, the time will be shortened, and if an accident occurs, quicker decisions can be made.
According to the reaction, when the time comes, we can travel from northern Shanxi to Chengdu in about ten days. There are many benefits, and more importantly, it can strengthen our influence on the Central Plains.
"You have so many evil ideas. The slave family needs to hurry up and write a document. Notify northern Shanxi and quickly get another batch of food. At least before the winter comes, this batch of food must be sent to Yan'an Mansion, otherwise there will be trouble.
"Hai Lanzhu sighed worriedly. Although July has not passed yet, after the great plague and war, Yan'an Prefecture is a wasteland, and food problems must be nipped in the bud.
Tie Mo and Hai Lanzhu were discussing the future planning of Yan'an Mansion, while in a small building in Yan'an Mansion, big businessmen led by Lei Dongze and He Qingzhou were planning a rebellion. This is true for many policy changes. Some people
If profits are made, some will be harmed. Lei Dongze and others are determined not to see the prohibition on alcohol and the official and commercial road diversion implemented, "He Qingzhou, what should we do now? Even if we organize everyone, we will not be able to shake it at all.
We can't attack the Northern Shanxi Army. I sent someone to find out before. There are more than a thousand elite soldiers stationed in Guangnancheng Barracks. If we attack by force, it will probably be difficult to achieve success."
"A forceful attack will definitely not work. We don't need to attack by force at all. We just need to mess up the situation in Yan'an. Tiemo is obviously short of food, and Yichuan is still in a stalemate. As long as we do a good job, we will be able to regain control soon.
Yan'an Mansion. Tie Mo needs to keep an eye on the rebels in the west. There are at most more than 4,000 soldiers and horses in Yan'an Mansion. They are scattered and there are not many places to take care of them. We will start with food. That pariah Li Qiong wants to
If we want to please Tie Mo, we will go after him and wait until he collects his food and property and burn him with fire. With his example, we will see if others dare to please Tie Mo." Lei Dongze said here,
He gritted his teeth and became furious when he thought of Li Qiong. He really couldn't bear it. A pariah who ran a brothel stood on the Lei family's head. It was simply unbearable.
He Qingzhou nodded in deep agreement, frowned slightly, and said with a smile, "Yes, let's start with Li Qiong. His defense is weak and it is easy to succeed. Once Li Qiong's money and food are taken away, no one else will be afraid.
Difficult. In addition, there are many people living in the rat area of Nancheng. We can set fire to the houses there at night. It is best to kill some people. These people have no place to live or food to eat, so they can only go to Tie Mo.
, once proper arrangements are not made, these untouchables will have to fight for their lives in order to survive. In short, you all must work together to make the situation in Yan'an Prefecture as chaotic as possible. Let the people named Tie see it.
, who is the real master of Yan'an Mansion."
He Qingzhou's speech boosted everyone's morale, and the original anxiety disappeared. Before Xu Shi passed, these big households started to get busy one after another. In a brothel in Nancheng, Li Qiong was drinking wine beautifully, and food and other supplies had been prepared.
, once it is delivered to the Iron Superintendent tomorrow, his status will be greatly improved. By then, he will no longer be a chicken head that is laughed at. After a few glasses of wine, he feels comfortable and is about to hug a few
The beauty was having fun, and the servant ran in in a panic, "Boss Li, it's not good, there's a fire in the warehouse. A dozen guys wearing masks killed everyone on sight, and now the warehouse has been burned down."
Li Qiong almost fell to the ground. That was all his belongings, which were used in exchange for capital to lead officials and merchants. Before Li Qiong could recover, the brothel became noisy, with women and clients rushing out.
He ran away, and the whole brothel was on fire, and it was too late to put out the fire. Li Qiong was a little sluggish. If several prostitutes' slaves hadn't joined forces to help, Li Qiong would have died in the brothel.
