Chapter 12: The Tea Party

Unlike his own brothers-in-law, Zhang Da'an's childhood and adolescence were influenced by Lao Zhang's strong and unique style. Although in terms of blood connection, Jiangyin's two brothers may be closer, but for various reasons, from the beginning, these two brothers had unspeakable "sacrifices".

There are two brothers in Jiangyin, so there is no difference between him Zhang De and other Jiangnan clans, at least in the eyes of the Huaiyang family in Suzhou, Hangzhou and Huaiyang, Jiangyin Zhang is nothing unique.

Those who can take a look at Wuhan thousands of miles away are only a few after all.

As for Zhang Da'an, or even Zhang Dasu, it is still unknown how much the handsome and dashing Uncle Zhang can influence them. Traditionally, the title of Zou Guogong has nothing to do with them; Returning to reality, the "Zhongyi Society" is far more channels than Princess Langya's Mansion can provide.

If you are a human being, you have to make a trade-off, and after all, you are a social animal.

"This year, the country's Ding Kou has grown, and three million is not too much, but it is not too much, but it can still be fed after all."

Tea parties in Hanyang are held every once in a while, and the people who attend the meetings come from a variety of backgrounds, including the emperor's relatives, relatives, and local officials. The eldest grandson Wuji, who is often in the center, is now more interested in statistics, although this is a thankless job, but Zaifu naturally has this sensitivity and impulsiveness.

"If it is the heart of China, 2.23 million, that's about it. It's just that in the past few years, there is no calculation of plundering women in the East China Sea, only Yangzhou, and there are more than 60,000 widows on the register; Denglai Silla women on the side of 1230,000; Hebei to Shicheng, about 90,000 women from Muwei, Yan Ya and Zhuhu...... Oh, this is an estimate of the sixteenth year of Zhenguan. ”

Pushing the reading glasses, the eldest grandson Wuji said: "This year, the emperor patrolled Liaodong, which is about to make up for Huaiyang's labor, and the canal will be excavated at the end of the year." ”

The reorganization of the Grand Canal is a "national policy" and a major project used to consume the strength of the Shandong scholars. Of course, its practical role in irrigation, drainage, and transportation also exists, and the consumption of the strength of the Shandong Shi clan is just one of its many gains.

Moreover, the central government has also changed the limelight very rapidly in recent years, and it is about the brilliant results of the Western Army led by Cheng Chubi, and the "accelerated" flow of manpower, material, and financial resources has led to a huge labor shortage for major projects. The emperor's ministers were "compelled" to quickly turn military achievements into economic gains, and the plundering of labor was only one of them.

In the old years, the emperor took the lead in building a large number of buildings, and the so-called emperor Lao Tzu did the first year of junior high school, and Lao Tzu couldn't do it for fifteen? Just build a palace at home, and Lao Tzu will renovate and renovate the thatched house, this is no problem.

Up and down, the Luoyang area is generally "luxurious", and it is the emperor who takes the lead, no one can say anything.

The demand for building materials is endless.

There were few giant trees in the middle of the world, and when Li Dong built Luoyang Palace, if it weren't for the transformation of Liaodong achievements, it would be difficult to obtain a large number of high-quality towering giant trees to lose.

There were 200,000 giant trees dragged by the North Canal that year.

A giant tree is enough for the family of four generations to feed for a year. However, such wood can be seen everywhere in Luoyang Palace, and it is only used for pillars.

By this year, there are still more than 200,000 catties of vermilion lacquer in Luoyang Palace, and there is no meaning of peace in the inner house, and it involves the queen, which is really not good.

"The number of women in the East China Sea has filled a lot. Needless to say, what was the situation of concubines giving birth to children earlier, but now it is always seen by people. This is the case of the 'military village' in Yiyu Tongshan, when the Chinese officials arrive in Fusang, they will always have to govern in the future, who will be used? You don't necessarily need to use Japanese people. In my opinion, it is still necessary to use Chinese people. The Japanese girls are also Chinese people, and they should also be Chinese people. ”

Everyone thought so, and in the past, most of the officials present here were disdainful of this. will even ridicule concubines for giving birth to children, but as a affairs officer for many years, his thoughts and insights have long been "stripped of" social emotions, starting from the actual benefits of the official standard, whether it is a son-in-law or a concubine, in the eyes of the "official", they are all laborers, young and strong, and Dingkou.

All social interpersonal relationships are just window dressing on this basis, but there are good and bad.

"The emperor patrolled Liaodong, and there was a variable in Luoyang, China, and we in Wuhan didn't have to think about it. Ziwei Ling is here, and we don't have to make axes. It is only said that Liaodong is stable, the East China Sea has changed since then, and the remnants of Goguryeo, such as Su Wen and the like, even if they can make waves, it will only be stiff for two or three years, at most five years. ”

One person put down the teacup and looked at his dress and conversation, obviously from the north, and spoke with a Hedong accent, maybe he was still a "relative" from the northern capital.

"Now Hanzhou and Xiongzhou have been newly placed, and the four counties of Han have been restored, but it is just a matter of time. But it's not that important, what really matters is the Fuso deposits. Iyu Copper Mountain, and what kind of new gold and silver mines, this is not a three-to-five-year operation, let alone one or twenty years, or even a hundred decades, it is a property that can be passed down for several generations. It is not impossible to use Japanese people, but we can't all look at Japanese people, but we still have to look at Chinese people. ”

"Therefore, this year, we will talk about moving the imperial court, which encourages the welfare of production, and can also take care of the overseas people."

"If you want to move, I'm afraid it's not easy. Now that the emperor has made a decision, the three provinces are like secretaries and supervisors, and the sound of the outer court is not as useful as the eunuch of the inner mansion to fart. ”

"Don't stare at the outer court and the inner court, the outer court can't find a harem, the queen is always better than the eunuch. There are minions like Qian Gu, as long as they can be fed, what is he so powerful to us? The newly established police Wei Yulin Army is all important, and it doesn't hurt to say that 'the old man is seeking the country'......"

"Speaking of the consolation of Equatorial Island, it coincides."

"What kind of appetite the emperor is, no one in the world knows? The South China Sea Propaganda Envoy is just a stone to ask for directions, the South China Sea gold, silver, copper and iron can get the best, I am lucky; It's nothing if I lose it, if I lose my life. The imperial court is just a Du Xiucai, and most of the people who really take their lives to fight are from Guangzhou, even if the Feng family is loyal, they have to fill in some people's lives, which is to do their best, but also to do their best. ”

Feng An's family's mentality is similar to Li Jing's, inwardly speaking, they want to be "Nanbatian", but they can't do it in the end. More than ten years ago, I could still ponder, but I don't know what year the demon wind blew, and the ships of the imperial court going south were bigger than the other, who could stand this? Hurry up and shrink your eggs to show your loyalty, and be able to hold on to the foundation of Lingnan, even if it is thankful.

As for whether the Feng family wants to move to Luoyang in the future, it will all listen to the emperor and the central government, and there is absolutely no second word.

Li Dong belongs to the kind of top genius who can convert his reputation into cash, in fact, he didn't let go of half a word of intimidation of Lingnan, and the whole process was just to operate Jiaozhou, Huanzhou, and Aizhou, which are not next to Guangzhou.

But Li Daoxing opened a killing ring in Jiaozhou to unify the cave village, and Du Zhenglun opened up the river valley to suppress the city, which was just like playing. How could it be so easy to put it before? The transport of soldiers to adapt to the climate requires human lives. Can ...... now It's literal.

Jiaozhou set up two new counties, and the county order of one of the counties was actually from Qianzhong Fangzhai, and he was afraid of a fart "miasma", so he sent a show to eat leeches alive and raise Gu to bite people.

The world is difficult, and it's not easy to mix.
