Farmer of Shu Han

Chapter 869

In fact, not to mention Zhou Tianzi hundreds of years ago, even when the prime minister of the Han Dynasty decided to make the Northern Expedition, Feng Yong also proposed to borrow money.

It's just that it was rejected by the prime minister of the Han Dynasty.

At that time, the aristocratic families in Shu were not as well-behaved as they are now. If you want them to pay for the Northern Expedition, go ahead and dream!

Who dares to believe that the big man can defeat Wei Guo?

Of course, the big Han prime minister at that time shouted no, but his body was still very honest.

In the end, a pre-sale of workshop quotas was held, and a large amount of money and food was collected.

It even took Nanxiang's high-quality assets as collateral.

With the prime minister's jewels in front of him, Governor Feng believed that he could do it himself.

After all, issuing bonds also depends on timing.

First of all, there must be credit, secondly, there must be interests, and finally, the target group must have money.

As for the release and speed of the news...

In this era, big cities are the biggest gathering places of wealth.

It is impossible to engage in national bonds, because communication and transportation do not allow it.

But in the major cities where a lot of wealth has been accumulated, it is still barely possible to engage in local government bonds.

Calculating the time it took for the Hu people from Xihai County to go south to Liangzhou, it would be less than a month, so the time is very tight.

However, Governor Feng didn't think about making too much money.

His target group is those aristocratic families who are concentrated in the four core counties and cities of Liangzhou.

Especially the two cities of Lufu County in Jiuquan County and Jide County in Zhangye County.

Because Xihai County is just north of Jiuquan County.

There is a river in Jiuquan County that originates from the Qilian Mountains, passes through Lufu City, and then joins Ruoshui in the north.

And Ruoshui happens to flow through the city of Zhangye County.

The confluence of these two rivers is just south of the place where the weak water enters the quicksand.

In other words, these two big cities can directly use water transport to transport grain, and they can still go directly to the destination that needs to garrison troops, and even follow the water.

As for the means of transportation, it is naturally a sheepskin raft or a cowhide raft, a Liangzhou characteristic, simple and convenient.

Therefore, the key objects of the money-circling this time are none other than the bullies in these two cities.

Without further ado, the governor's office issued official documents as quickly as possible.

At the same time, he contacted Hao You, a family member who was capable of doing this big business.

Not to mention ordinary officials, even rich landowners with hundreds or even thousands of acres in their families are not qualified to participate in this matter.

Only those bigwigs who buy tens of thousands of acres will be invited.

Otherwise, if you buy a thousand acres, how many sheep can you raise?

You are not afraid of embarrassment, Governor Feng still finds it ugly.

Of course, it can also be a combination of several companies, just like Longyou.

The difference is who owns the pasture in name.

Liangzhou has an advantage, that is Ma Duo.

Not to mention the government, even some wealthy families have special horses to deliver news.

Moreover, the four counties of Liangzhou are just a string of candied haws. The official documents set off from Guzang and rushed westward along the official road.

There is no need to turn around, and you can directly notify the three counties in the west all the way.

So the delivery of the message is quite fast.

What Feng Yong didn't expect was that as soon as the news came out, the Gu Zang Hao clan who was the first to know the situation had already exploded first!

What kind of place is there in Juyanze? No one knows better than these natives.

Zhang Qian left Yangguan and entered Juyan to communicate with the northern grasslands;

Sang Hongyang personally made the strategy of reclamation in Juyan;

Dou Rong ruled the five counties of Liangzhou according to Juyan...

It can be said that there are countless fertile fields in Juyanze, which is not an exaggeration.

More importantly, from Juyan, you can directly enter the desert to trade with the barbarians.

Now Governor Feng is going to recover Xihai County, and at the same time, he also wants to open the grassland in Liangzhou?

After that wool...

Cough, in fact, the pastures are not important, everyone just wants to revive the Han Dynasty.

After all, it has been the territory of the Han Dynasty since ancient times, isn't it?

"Mr. Feng, why do you favor Zhangye Jiuquan, but not Wuwei Dunhuang?! The Zhang family in Dunhuang has always been obedient to the king!"

After Zhang Hua (Zhang Gong's younger brother) got the news, he immediately ran to see Feng Yong, because he was too eager, and his words were a little rude.

Governor Feng, who was teaching Shuangshuang to call Dad, was taken aback when he heard the words:

"Why did Zhang Canjun say that?"

In order to express his loyalty to the great man, Zhang Gong sent his son to the Western Regions.

Feng Yong naturally didn't cool the opponent's heart, so he asked Zhang Hua to join the army as a secretary in the governor's mansion.

After all, Zhang Hua still has some abilities.

"Why are the shares of the first batch of pastures in Xihai County only sold in Goide (the county government of Zhangye) and Lufu (the county government of Jiuquan)?"

"Of course it's because these two counties are close to Xihai County!"

Inspector Feng replied as a matter of course.

I will tell you that I urgently need a batch of money and food right now?

By the time you transport grain from Dunhuang to the place where the weak water enters the quicksand, the day lily will be cold!

Of course, it is more convenient to collect money and food on the spot.

The so-called share of the first batch of pastures was of course afraid that they would not be sold, so they found an excuse.

Otherwise, if ten thousand hectares are ten thousand hectares, and only 10,000 mu are sold in the end, wouldn't it be a loss of life?

So first take 100,000 mu to test the water.

In fact, a dead horse is treated as a living horse doctor, and the emergency is the first thing to do.

"Your Majesty, officials from other counties in Liangzhou also have the heart to serve the country, just like my Zhang family, they can also do their bit."

Zhang Hua stomped his feet and said anxiously, "If there is an opportunity to serve the country, but the subordinate misses it, I'm afraid my brother will beat and scold me again."

Zhang Canjun, I've seen your look a lot...

Governor Feng rolled his eyes twice, coughed, his face remained unchanged, and comforted him:

"Zhang Canjun doesn't need to be like this. Didn't I say it? This is only the first batch. We can only formulate specific regulations after we have tried it in the two cities of Geide and Lufu."

"If everyone is willing to serve the country, I will arrange the second batch."

Having said that, Governor Feng felt a little regretful:

I feel that the price of this pasture seems to be set too low, these big dogs are really rich!

"So that's the case, it's the lower officials who are reckless."

After Zhang Hua heard this, his expression relaxed, and he apologized quickly as if he was relieved.

His previous appearance was half true and half false.

Deliberately making an eager look, in fact, also has the intention of testing Feng Yong.

At this time, I learned that the first batch of places was just an attempt, and I was naturally happy.

"It's okay, it's okay, Zhang Canjun is also dedicated to serving the country..."

When Feng Junhou said this, he felt sick for a while, and then continued:

"I see that Zhang Canjun just said something. It seems that everyone is willing to pay for food and land?"

Zhang Hua nodded, but did not hide anything:

"The lower official came here this time, in fact, he was entrusted by the sergeant in Guzang City, and wanted to ask the king what kind of regulations are behind him..."

Sergeant in the city?

Which officials?

Feng Yong smiled slightly:

"Everyone is overwhelmed. Last winter, everyone worked together to help the governor's mansion tide over the difficulties. Am I the kind of ungrateful person?"

"The reason why the first batch was sold in Goide and Lufu is because they are the closest to Xihai County, so it is convenient to transport grain."

"Zhang Canjun might as well go back and tell everyone that after the first batch of quotas are sold out, there will be a second batch soon. Everyone can prepare money and food first."

Zhang Hua hurriedly clasped his fists in salute:

"The lower official understands, so I will go down and inform everyone immediately."

"Go."

"The next officer will leave."

After Zhang Hua's figure disappeared, Governor Feng couldn't hide his excitement any longer, and suddenly slammed his fists hard, laughing and saying:

"It's developed!"

Shuangshuang imitated her own adults, waving her chubby hands, and shouted childishly.

"Ha ha……"

Feng Yong lifted her up high.

The daughter immediately screamed with joy.

Putting Shuangshuang down and asking Amei to come over to take care of the children, Governor Feng hurried to the secretariat.

It's just that he just arrived at the door of the chief secretary's guard room when he heard Zhang Xingyi's slightly irritable voice from inside:

"See you! Is there anything good to see? The announcements have been sent out. Are they illiterate? Why do you need to come here to find out the news?"

Entering the room, I saw a little female secretary bowing her head and being scolded at a loss.

Well, with this appearance, it should be a female student picked out of the school last year.

Seeing Feng Yong come in, Secretary Zhang waved his hand and told the little secretary to step back.

The little secretary breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly saluted Feng Yong, and then ran away with her skirt in hand.

"What's the matter?"

Feng Yong sat across from Secretary Zhang and asked.

"You're so stupid! Reporting such a small matter, I still think I'm not busy enough all day long..."

Secretary Zhang complained to the people below, and then looked straight at Feng Yong, "Come here at this time, but what's the matter?"

Feng Yong nodded, leaned back on the chair, and said with a relaxed expression:

"There is no need to worry about money and food this year."

Zhang Xingyi's expression remained unchanged, and he nodded as if he had expected it a long time ago:

"The land in Xihai County sold for a good price."

"Huh? You know?"

Feng Yong immediately sat up straight and asked in surprise.

"That's right?"

Zhang Xingyi raised his head triumphantly, and whispered towards the door:

"Including the one just now, there are at least three or four groups of people who want to get news from me today."

"Collecting money and food is such a great thing, are you still so impatient?"

"Tch!" Zhang Xingyi gave Feng Yong a blank look, "How do you collect it? Don't put it in storage? How to distribute it..."

"Don't be busy with these things? When it's really time to start, I'm afraid I'm going to be exhausted!"

"Because there is still some free time, I just want to finalize the charter. Do you think everyone is like you and doesn't care about things all day long?"

Governor Feng glanced at the door, guessing that there were still a group of young secretaries outside waiting to come in and report, so he had no choice but to press down on the idea of making out with the big secretary now.

He stood up: "I know you are busy, I will cook today as a reward."

Zhang Xingyi's eyes crooked: "This is more or less the same."

"Also, the food and grass can be prepared now, and I plan to send troops to Jiuquan immediately."

Zhang Xingyi hesitated: "The treasury must have some reserves..."

"Teach you a good boy, send an official document in the name of the governor's mansion, whoever wants to buy the second batch of places, you can pay the deposit first."

Zhang Xingyi's eyes widened immediately: "Deposit?"

"That's right, the quota is so tight, so naturally first come, first served. After paying the deposit, the second batch will be sold in order of first come first served."

"Quota tight?"

"If I say nervous, I'm nervous, sell less, and give fewer names. How can I force them to pay if I'm not nervous?"

There is still trust in the sale of houses in later generations!

For newly opened real estate, only one set is left in half a day.

I went back half a month later, and there was still only one set left.

Going back a month later, the salesman said the last set, and several waves of people came to see it...

After finishing the decoration and moving in, I was bored at night and stood downstairs looking, only to find that less than half of the windows were lit.

Then the salesman called: Brother, there is a customer who doesn’t want to buy the house. The house is very good, even better than the one you saw earlier. I want to ask if you have any relatives or friends who want to buy a house?

Fuck you!

"Oh, by the way, don't forget to tell them that if you don't want to buy it later, the deposit will not be refunded."

Anyway, Governor Feng now finally knows how cool it is to sell land for later generations.

That's how I make rules, love or not!

Looking at the shameless face of this man opposite, Zhang Xingyi suddenly felt, how blind was she before that she loved him so much?

It's just that as a big secretary who can't wait to split every dollar into two parts, when I think about it, I won't have to live such a tight life in the near future.

There was disdain on his face, but he was already happy in his heart.

"Okay, I know what to do."

After eating so much saliva from King Feng Gui, coupled with his political talent, this kind of thing is simply easy to understand.

Governor Feng chuckled, winked at the secretary, and went out humming a song.

The soldiers and horses did not move, but the food and grass went first.

After solving the problem of food and grass, the next step is to solve the problem of which soldiers and horses to move.

Ah Mei led Shuangshuang and Ah Chong outside, and Governor Feng greeted them and walked into the inner room.

General Guan was half lying on the couch to rest his mind.

Inspector Feng sat on the side of the couch and rubbed General Guan's legs.

"I heard that Zhang Canjun came to talk about the matter of Xihai County, and then A Lang went to look for Siniang. Could it be that things have changed?"

General Guan opened his eyes and asked in a gentle voice.

The words seem ordinary, but they imply sharpness.

It implies that even if General Guan does not show up, he still controls everything in the Governor's Mansion.

Inspector Feng coughed:

"Yes, I came here just to tell Mr. Xi a good news. The land in Xihai County is very sought-after."

"It is estimated that after we finish fighting the West Sea, we still have some spare money to repair the fortress of the former Han Dynasty (that is, the Great Wall, called the fortress in Han Dynasty)."

Guan Ji's eyes lit up, and the corner of her mouth smiled: "This is really good news, did Zhang Hua tell A Lang?"

"That's right. From Zhang Hua's attitude, I'm afraid that the Hao Youlun from Guzang and Dunhuang are not in the first batch."

When Feng Yong said this, he finally revealed his true thoughts, "I didn't think about this matter. This Xihai County is really a treasure."

"If we can really re-govern it, not to mention the pastures, but just the fertile land, it will far exceed this price."

In the process of running back and forth, Feng Yong also figured out something:

Because of the appearance of wool, tea, brown sugar, spirits, etc., just being able to directly enter the grassland trade is enough to drive the Liangzhou family crazy.

With the workshop, together with Ju Yanze, he can also produce wool by himself.

The cost is further reduced, who is not crazy to change?

The best fertile land in Dahan can cost 10,000 yuan per mu.

Of course, this is the price in the core area of the Central Plains.

The best field in the frontier is about two thousand to three thousand dollars.

Juyanze's land is naturally the best field in the frontier, so Feng Yongcai regretted selling it cheaply.

Guan Ji smiled and shook her head:

"Selling land is selling land, but where it is sold and what it is used for, they don't count, but we do. There is no fertile land, only grassland."

Upon hearing this, Inspector Feng burst out laughing "ha".

It really is a couple's heart!

"Xi Jun thinks who is better to send to lead the army this time?"

There is no need for Governor Feng to take care of such trivial matters, otherwise it would be too much of a loss.
