Chapter 233 The family gate valve is really rich

Thousands of years of records of political power struggles have also tempered today's China, and there has never been a shortage of truly intelligent people. And Li Yuan is a master of playing with power.

Li Yuan followed the clan gate valve and gave the Sui Dynasty a fatal blow when the former Sui was at its weakest. In the end, Li Yuan won the world. However, with the Taiyuan Wang family, Qinghe Cui clan and other Hedong clan lords who have always supported him, they eventually turned against each other because of the uneven division of interests.

Liu Wuzhou, a broken household, with the support of the lords of the world, became the overlord of Hedong.

Li Yuan did not compromise with the clan gate lords, but adopted the method of army conquest, which not only quelled Liu Wuzhou's rebellion, but also weakened the Hedong clan gate lords.

As the so-called one trick is fresh, eat all over the world. After Li Yuan repaid the beauty of supporting the righteousness of the world, he was not tired from Beile. For Wang Shichong and Henan, Shaanxi Eastern Shi clan is so, on the grounds of disobedience to Wang Zhi, with the army to open the way, with the Tang army soldiers into Henan Mansion, Henan Mansion under the rule of Li Tang court, followed by Hebei, Hebei surrendered and rebelled, and was successfully pacified by Li Jiancheng in a very short period of time.

Although the turmoil in Hebei lasted for half a year, and although hundreds of thousands of people died, since then, the Hebei military group headed by Dou Jiande and the Hebei Shizu political group have completely disappeared under the military attack. At this time, Li Yuan is repeating his old tricks again, assisting Gongyou to rebel or not, in fact, the result is the same, Li Yuan needs the Jianghuai army to rebel, only if the Jianghuai army rebels, Li Yuan can justifiably and completely eliminate the Jianghuai military and political power group.

Li Yuan is very obsessed with power arts, he can be cruel and ruthless, whether it is to his enemies or himself. Let millions of peasants become ghosts who starve to death or die in battle.

It is precisely because of this ruthlessness that the population of Datang has plummeted to a very frightening level. In the first year of Wude, Datang only had one part of Hedong, Guanzhong and Bashu, with a population of about two million households, but in the ninth year of Wude, the world was basically unified, and Datang was only more than two million households, and it was not until the thirteenth year of Zhenguan that the population of Datang exceeded three million.

If Li Yuan's plan is allowed to succeed, Datang will be like the Tang Dynasty in history, with a vast land and sparsely populated population, white bones exposed, and thousands of miles of red land. In fact, in order to eliminate the separatist forces of the local princes, it is not a matter of blindly killing them, but also to adopt a strategy of moving defense, as Li Jiancheng did. Li Yi from the bitter cold land was transferred to Hebei. And Li Shiji moved to Anton.

In this way, Li Yi needs at least a few years of hard work in the unfamiliar Hebei to establish his own power group, and at this time, Luo Yi can be transferred to other places.

Li Yuan only needed to transfer Du Fuwei to Hedong and use Li Shimin to suppress Jianghuai, and the Jianghuai army would definitely not be able to rebel. After all, if they are not cornered, the ordinary soldiers of the Jianghuai Army will not rebel, and they are already tired of war and killing, and they also want to live a peaceful life.

Chen Ying naturally wanted to change this man-made catastrophe, and through his disdainful efforts, he deceived more than 30,000 families in Hebei into migrating to the Western Regions.

However, Chen Ying did not calculate that Li Yuan would further persecute Du Fuwei, and now Du Fuwei has been imprisoned for investigation, in case Du Fuwei dies violently like in history, I am afraid that Fu Gongyou will not rebel, and Wang Xiongdan will not rebel, as long as anyone holds high the banner of revenge for Du Fuwei, the Jianghuai soldiers will rise up and respond.

Although Chen Ying's convoy was fast enough in the ice and snow, Chen Ying was still too slow. Li Xiuning, He Yueer, and Li Daozhen can persevere, but Li Siye and Chen Qian feel unwell.

Entering Dunhuang City in Shazhou, Chen Ying had to order a rest.

As one of the famous towns on the Silk Road, Dunhuang is located in the westernmost part of the Hexi Corridor, at the intersection of Gansu, Qinghai and Xinjiang provinces (regions), on the largest oasis in the lower reaches of the Dang River and Shule River, and is the main gateway of the "Silk Road" west out of Yumen Pass and Yangguan. There is a very commercial atmosphere here.

Chen Ying did not move the local officials, but stayed at the largest Four Seasons Laicai Inn in Dunhuang. In fact, the Four Seasons Fortune Inn is not in Dunhuang City but fifteen miles west of the city.

Four Seasons Wealth Inn is backed by the Shule River and built along the river. There are three things that are most famous in the Four Seasons Inn, that is, the Dunhuang specialty Huangyu, followed by the song and dance of Qiuzi from the Western Regions, and the best beauty of Persian style.

Although the name of the Four Seasons Wealth Inn is an inn, in fact, the business scope is very extensive, along the direction of the river wharf is a fast food restaurant that is more than 400 steps, mainly selling Hu cakes, soup cakes, mutton soup, specially for the past business travelers, porters, and workers who help on the wharf, the ingredients here are sufficient, a penny of Hu cakes, with two pennies of mutton soup, even if an ordinary strong man, three pennies to ensure that the tube is full.

When Chen Ying arrived, the craftsmen, porters, and handymen were eating, and these low-level grassroots people took Hu cakes with a diameter of more than a foot long, cut them open from the middle with knives, put some haggis or pork in them, and sat on the side of the street to gobble them up, and when they had finished eating, they washed the lunch boxes and continued to work.

If you want to eat better, there are also drawers of hot rice, buckets of vegetables and soup, all tightly covered with white cloth to prevent dust from falling into the food. However, the price of rice and dishes is relatively expensive, and you can eat for about three or four cents.

Chen Ying took Li Daozhen, Li Xiuning, He Yue'er, as well as Xu Erniang, Fukada Huayin and others directly to the second-floor elegant seat near the river.

As soon as Chen Ying and the others entered the lobby, they immediately attracted the attention of the guests in the lobby. It's a pity that everyone basically doesn't look at Chen Ying, but Li Xiuning or Li Daozhen, and even Fukada Huayin and their daughters.

Li Xiuning is timeless and luxurious, Li Daozhen is heroic, Xu Erniang is a small jasper, and Fukada Huayin is petite and lovely. As for He Yue'er, she is also charming.

The women attracted a burst of amazement and itching from all the businessmen, but none of them dared to come forward to talk, joking, and not looking at who was around them! Although most of the people didn't know Chen Ying, they recognized the black Mingguang armor under General Chen's command, as well as the black swords and guns in their hands.

Everyone knows that the blade made of high-carbon steel is very sharp and durable, but it is not uncommon here, but it is rare to see this kind of blade with black light, which is the standard equipment of the Anxi Army under General Chen. Unless they have their eyeballs in their crotch, they will never touch this brow.

The shopkeeper said enthusiastically: "General Chen is here, our store is really bright!" The general can just open his mouth for what he wants to eat, and Xiaomin will let the best chef personally cook it for you, and you will be satisfied! ”

Chen Ying looked at the splendid private room and said with a faint smile: "Your things here are quite expensive, right?" ”

The shopkeeper said boldly: "Hey, what is expensive or not, it is already a great honor for you to come to our store, general, where do you dare to ask you for money!" Rest assured to eat, this meal is a treat for the small people, the more you eat, the happier we are! ”

A Lite businessman said in a broken Tang dialect: "General, you just have to order food, this meal is mine!" ”

A Sassanid merchant argued, "Count...... Count me in! ”

The Rite merchant was annoyed: "Why? I spoke first! ”

The Sassanid merchant was displeased: "You spoke first and it was yours?" Are you kidding! ”

The two didn't give in to each other, and quarreled directly in their native language.

was arguing, Yang Rong smiled with a spring breeze on her face: "Count mine, count mine." ”

When she opened her mouth, everyone had nothing to say. Four Seasons Wealth Inn is Yang Rong's industry, this woman is very big, the woman herself is weak, and she is easy to be excluded from business. A month ago, there was a captain of Yumen Guan who came here to eat the overlord meal, and the shopkeeper directly asked the guy to pick up the burning stick and beat him up. The merchants thought that the Four Seasons Fortune Inn would be closed now, but they didn't expect that the captain didn't dare to come to find trouble, but instead went from being a seven-rank captain to a big soldier, and became a member of the jumping soldiers.

Chen Ying looked at Yang Rong in surprise and said, "Why are you here?" ”

Yang Rong smiled faintly: "Didn't you say it?" Wherever you lead your army, my shop will be built. ”

As she spoke, Yang Rong poured herself a cup of tea and drank it all, and sighed loudly: "I am going to open three large grain stores here in Shazhou, and I am going to buy 100,000 dumps of land in the Western Regions tomorrow!" ”

Li Xiuning secretly smacked his tongue, 100,000 is not 100,000 acres. One dump is 100 acres, and 100,000 tilts are 10 million acres. According to the calculation of a county in Guanzhong with a maximum of tens of thousands of land, Yang Rong wants to buy ten counties in one go.

Yang Rong said with a smile: "I am going to open branches in more than 100 counties in 19 prefectures in the three towns of Anxi to further expand and strengthen the business...... Shopkeeper, bring all your specialty dishes! ”

The shopkeeper responded happily and went to work.

Chen Ying glanced at Yang Rong and said, "Big cousin, you haven't made less money in the past few years, right?" ”

Yang Rong smiled proudly and said, "The first two years were just a small profit, but this year it is a big profit." ”

The main reason for her profit this year was that under Chen Ying's rule, she bought Caiyun City at a price that was almost free of charge, and she became addicted to being a city lord. However, the originally desolate Baiyun City not only has a salt mine, but also an agate mine.

This is actually nothing, the key is that Chen Ying opened the Tang Tongli Money Village to the Western Regions. At this time, the business of Tongli Qian Zhuang increased exponentially, and they transported the money to Shule, deposited the money in Shule, and then went to Chang'an, Chengdu, Luoyang, Lingzhou, Zhaozhou and other places to purchase goods.

In this way, it is not only convenient to transport coins, but especially for bulk trade.

Li Xiuning said a little sour in her heart: "What are you doing with so much money as a woman?" ”

Yang Rong smiled faintly and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, don't you know what it's like to watch the golden mountains and silver seas flow past you!" I can't wait to become a thousand-armed Guanyin and put all the mountains of gold into my pocket! ”

Chen Yingdao: "You have enough money...... It's enough for ten lifetimes, and you can't spend it all! ”

"It's not a question of whether I'm rich enough, I just love the feeling of making a lot of money and watching thousands of dollars go in and out of my hands!" Yang Rong looked at Chen Ying and said, "If you want to make money, in fact, I admire your little cousin even more!" ”

Li Xiuning said: "He makes money, and this year he is almost poor as pants in order to repair that road!" ”

"Little cousin, do you want to borrow money, or don't count my shares!" Yang Rong said with a smile: "Otherwise, I will pay 200,000 yuan, and you will give me one percent of the dry shares of Chidao!" ”

"What Issei?" Chen Ying's eyes widened and said, "I want to be one percent for 200,000 yuan, why don't you rob it?" ”

"If you have something to say, we can discuss!"

"Not negotiable!" Chen Ying shook his head again and again and said: "200,000 yuan, for the sake of your own people, you can count up to three shares!" ”

Listening to the conversation between Chen Ying and Yang Rong, Li Xiuning was dumbfounded, and she felt that her brain was a little insufficient. Two hundred thousand three points, in fact, doesn't it mean that the road will cost six or seven million?

Yang Rong glanced at Chen Ying, and pretended to be aggrieved: "You are so ruthless, you are only three shares!" ”

"Don't pull it!" Chen Ying said angrily: "Don't be dissatisfied, you don't want to buy, I don't want to sell yet!" ”

Yang Rong muttered: "Let's say this, three points are three points, so let's do it, two million guan, can you account for thirty percent of Chidao's shares?" ”

Hearing this, Chen Ying got up and motioned to Zhou Qing and Guo Luo to look around.

Guo Luo and Zhou Qing hurriedly came out of the neighborhood and looked around vigilantly.

Chen Yingdao: "Big cousin, what's wrong with you, what's wrong?" ”

With Yang Rong's strength, it should be acceptable to take out 300,000 guan, and 500,000 guan is already very reluctant. However, she said two million in one mouth, which was beyond her actual ability.

Yang Rong looked at Chen Ying's expression and knew that Chen Ying had guessed her intentions. Yang Rong said: "I am also entrusted by others, two million yuan, thirty percent of the shares, how does my little cousin feel?" ”

Chen Ying's face became solemn, and he said slowly: "Who is the other party?" Wu Jun Lu's? Or Chenjun Xie? Or Wu Jun Zhu? ”

"Jiangzuo's four families!" Yang Rong said: "Three months ago, they found me! ”

The four families of Jiangzuo, which can also be said to be the four families of Jiangzuo's wealthy families, are Gu, Lu, Zhu, and Zhang, which can be traced back to the period of the Two Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms, and each of them is a wealthy family for hundreds of years.

Now it is not so much that Chen Ying is participating in shares, but that they are using their way to indirectly lose their sincerity to Li Jiancheng!

Li Xiuning looked at Chen Ying and said, "Chen Lang, what do you mean......"

Chen Ying smiled bitterly and said: "This is no longer something I can call the shots, this matter must be discussed with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince as soon as possible, but in my opinion, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely agree!" ”
