Follow General Cao to mix the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 268 An Unexpected Stepping Stone

Chapter 268 An Unexpected Stepping Stone
Eliminated most of the local tyrants who were in control of him everywhere, local independent kingdoms, among the thirteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty, except for Mr. Cao and Yuan Cheqi, I am afraid that no one has such power as him. The Wu Jun Sun family is still fighting with Wu Zhong The aristocratic family is overcoming obstacles in the game. As for Liu Bitch in Jingzhou and Liu Yan in Bashu, they are just puppets raised by the aristocratic family. In Qingzhou, the government's decree has already touched the countryside that the Qin Dynasty only reached.

But to say that people's desires are endless, Wang Hou is the chestnut!Leading the army to return in triumph, back to Linzi, he still sighed and grinned.

In terms of class, the founder of the Dameng Empire, Zhu Yuanzhang, came from a grassroots background, but later, in the words of the scumbags, Dameng was still usurped by the landlord class. The usurped Qingzhou is even more obvious!

Lack of talent!
No move!There are too few scholars these days, and not one out of a hundred people can read. Can ordinary people's parents and officials be illiterate?Now the fight against the old forces Wang Hou is going smoothly. For the sake of their own heads, tens of thousands of aristocratic tyrants have followed Wang Hou's order, as they did in the early Western Han Dynasty, and divided the aristocratic families into small households, bringing with them the wealth accumulated over the years. With blood and sweat, the tenant farmers moved to Chengyang County and Donghai County one after another. They went to the mountains and countryside to receive re-education from labor and bankers, and then they had to be exploited by Wang Hou. The buildings in the new settlement had to buy cement and steel bars produced by Rizhao, and build a second floor Small building style.

However, they left 27 county magistrates vacant, and the two county magistrates of Chengyang County, Donghai County, and 35 county magistrates were all vacant!There are only ten people from his own Taiyuan Wang family that Wang Hou can get his hands on, and the rest have to be brought in from outside. The biggest source of talent is Langya County, which he despised so much a while ago.

Even the Zhuge family in Langya, which is quite close to Wang Hou, represents the interests of their own local tyrant family. Although their influence in Qingzhou is still small, in time, God knows if these family boys can make another copy for him in Qidi. The Langya family group came.

However, there is no rush for talent. The biggest graduate of his Wang Clan School at the foot of Funiu Mountain has just graduated at the age of 16 this year, and there are only a dozen of them. They have all rushed to Qingzhou, and the next batch will be next year , Wang Hou really felt what it is like to grow a tree for ten years and a hundred years for a person!
Just when Wang Hou was troubled by distributing fat and welfare to his subordinates, the Qidi family, unwilling to withdraw from the stage of history, finally started the last wave of positive and beneficial self-help.

"The next official pays homage to Zhou Mu!"

Compared with the domineering old man Tianrang when he first entered Linzi, the old guy is undoubtedly a lot deeper now, his waist is bent, and his old face is also respectful. After entering the house, he is very humble Immediately came a 180-degree bow.

But in his heart, he had long regarded him as a big rabbit running away from the gun. No matter how humble the old guy was, in Wang Hou's eyes, he looked like a tiger with a smiling face. He hummed.

"sit!"

Then he twitched his chin to the side.

"Tea!"

I have to admire, if this family member really bowed his head, he could bear it more than a tortoise. After being neglected by Wang Hou, he still kept his old smile on his old face. The old guy sat obediently on the sofa in Wang Hou's office, And sitting, he rubbed the leather sofa made of animal skin exported from Taishan with great interest, and looked around full of novelty, just like a country bumpkin entering the city.

Seeing that the old man's mischievous eyebrows did not look like a good person at all, Wang Hou finally couldn't hold back after hanging him out for a few minutes, and looked up depressed.

"Tian Diannong!"

"State Shepherd!"

This time is not the time to rely on the old and sell the old. Hearing the call from the leader, Lao Tian immediately transformed into Xiao Tian who had just started working, and rushed to Wang Hou's leather-wrapped legs, in front of the boss's big desk. It's a nodding and bowing please.

"As officials of the imperial court, we should be loyal to the empire, report the grace of your majesty and the prime minister, and comfort the people of Li and common people. Now the spring plowing is in full swing. As the captain of Diannong, you will not go to the countryside in person, but lead the people to work hard in the fields. , Solve technical problems for the people, idle around, and delay Linzi, what a shame!"

He was a small employee before, and finally became a leader. Wang Hou's "little man's hemorrhoids" really showed its full potential.During the last civil uprising in Le'an, Wang Hou's bureaucratic accent made Tian Rang so angry that his cheeks bulged and his eyes were red, but this time, he was still the standard Oda model who just joined the work and didn't live anywhere. With an old head and melon seeds.

"The leader's lesson is very good! Very good! I will respect the teaching of the leader and work hard! Benefit the people, and I will never disappoint the promotion of the leader!"

Reach out and don't hit the smiling face!The old guy pretended to be a kid to this point, Wang Hou was helpless, took a deep breath, and asked helplessly.

"What is Tian Diannong doing here?"

"Zhou Mu, my family is a big family in Lixia. There are many Dingkou, breeding year after year, and the land is getting smaller and smaller. I heard that Zhou Mu wants to build a big city Qingdao in Donghai County, and cultivate millions of acres of sugar beet fields around it. The land is exchanged from Zhoumu for land, and a few acres of land in Qingdao is exchanged, and I hope Zhoumu agrees!"

Hey, this old guy is really sensible!Seeing Wang Hou’s way out for those rebel families, I also know where Wang Hou’s bottom line is. The land in Licheng is 10,000+ mu. This is the best high-quality fertile land for Jishui impact irrigation, with a complete water irrigation system , As for the million-acre sugar beet base in Qingdao?Still on Wang Hou's paper, according to the land price at that time, Qingdao's seaside land was worthless, even if he exchanged millions of acres for Tian Rang, he would still suffer!Not to mention the separation of the tribesmen and soldiers who the local tyrants depended on for their survival.

But using this method to cut off his arm, his family can be removed from Wang Hou's hit list, and maybe he can even get on the boat of Wang Hou, a big man, and worship at the pier, which is definitely profitable!

It is said that a strong man cuts his wrist, but how many can really be done?Tian Rang's proposal caught Wang Houda's expectations, and he was stunned for a few seconds before he came to his senses and nodded involuntarily.

"Okay! I will give you 20 mu of sugar beet fields in Qingdao! In exchange for the land in Licheng, tenants who are willing to follow your family can also take all of them!"

Even if he didn't care about the deserted land in Qingdao City, but Wang Hou exchanged 20 mu for his 18 mu of land, and Tian Rang grinned slightly and cursed cheapskate. He doesn't know it now. How profitable Tian is!But in the belly, the old guy still smiled like a beet, and then bowed respectfully.

"Zhou Mu, you want to develop these barren fields in Donghai County. It is really an act of benefiting future generations. The merits will last for thousands of years. I am deeply impressed. However, Qingdao City has millions of acres, and Chengyang County has to reclaim hundreds of thousands of acres of bean fields. We need to build roads, and we need to recruit soldiers! According to the state’s heart of shepherding and loving the people, it’s really beyond our power!”

This is true!Wang Hou's stall is too big, and his plan is too grand, but now is not the time when there will be more than one billion people in later generations, there will be no hundreds of millions, manpower is really a big problem!However, listening to the old guy's words, Wang Hou became vigilant again. He is now more popular than his family in Qidi, which was won by his policy of distributing land to tenants in Qingzhou and building a self-cultivating peasant class. The old guy wanted to trick him again. Continue the previous warlord's policy of abusing the people, and then take back the hearts of the people?
"What advice does Tian Weng have?"

Added an honorific name to the language, but this is a sign of Wang Hou's vigilance and hostility. Only when he admires his opponent more and more can he devote all his energy to tease him!This is Wang Hou's fighting instinct!

But with a slight smile, Tian Rang looked confidently at the head of the guard over there, puffing out his small chest to pretend to be majestic, but he was cute enough to be cute.

What kind of tricks the old guy was selling really aroused Wang Hou's curiosity. He nodded to Zhuge Ying. A woman and two hunched male and female servants in ragged clothes came in.

These two people were nothing more than ordinary people. Wang Hou had seen countless times of such impoverished tenants and serfs.

But before he could say anything, Wang Hou's eyes returned to the two of them again, and he couldn't help flickering a few times, finally letting him see something.

First of all, these two people are very short!It is half a head shorter than the malnourished tenant, which is about 1.4 meters and 1.5 meters. Secondly, even if the clothes of the Han Dynasty and later generations are completely different, they are too weird. The strange hemp weaving is very similar to that of later generations. It's the kind of big smock produced, and there is an ugly striped belt of patterned cloth around the waist, and two short belts are tied at the cloth flap of the trouser legs, which looks more and more weird.

Didn't make too much of a fuss, Tian Laohuo revealed the answer first with a smile.

"Zhou Mu, this pair are Japanese slaves!"
