Chapter 6 Two Things King Xu
Li Yuanjia, the king of Xu, changed his title to King Han, and before going to Luzhou, Li Yuanjia came to the long history Cui Hong and said: "In the old days, when it was Sima, thanks to the maintenance of Cui Gong, Yuanjia is very grateful." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Your Highness's trip, the mountains are high and the rivers are far away, Hongdao wishes Your Highness a safe journey."
"I'm only Gong Cui has been bored recently, but in the Cui family's family affairs, although I am a royal family, I am an outsider after all, and I can't help Duke Cui cut through the sorrows." Although Li Yuanjia is young, he can do things properly and be called a virtuous king, and Li Ke, who knows that he is a waste of firewood and then eats and waits for death, is not a person at all.
He is a more affectionate person, and Cui Hongdao has helped him a lot, not only because Cui Hongdao was born in the Cui family of Qinghe, but also because Cui Hongdao belongs to the Xuzhou household. Before the age of 20, he can reap the praise of "good governance", most of which is the credit of Cui Hongdao.
"Let His Highness have a heart."
"It's also my own opinion, I have been sparse, and I asked Cui Gong to stay in Xuzhou. You have also seen the tenth brother, and he also wants you to be a long history, and this matter is not decided by me alone, Cui Gong and Qinghe, there must always be a result. If there are ten brothers, he is also a member of the royal family, and he can still deter some villains. ”
"Your Highness......"
Cui Hongdao was extremely emotional, so he had to make a big salute, "Hongdao...... Thank you, Your Highness, for your protection. ”
"The future is difficult, Cui Gong should take care, stay, and say goodbye."
The young Li Yuanjia got into the carriage and waved his hand in the carriage again, and then said goodbye.
Han King Li Yuanjia left Cui Hongdao not only the qualification to continue operating in Xuzhou, but also a talisman from the royal family, originally Cui Hongdao's talisman should be his daughter Cui Jue. It's a pity that Empress Eldest Sun is not as embarrassed as Wu Denian for a long time......
The newly crowned King Xu is the former King of Zheng Li Yuanli, who had been in contact with Li Yuanjia before he changed his title to King Han. This matter was communicated early, and when Cui Jue went south to Hanyang, Li Yuanli greeted Cui Hongdao, and Zhang De also knew about it.
In fact, what Cui Hongdao didn't know was that the reason why Li Yuanli was willing to let Cui Hongdao continue to stay in Xuzhou was that Zhang De was preparing to plant cotton in Luzhou.
Luzhou, which is close to Taiyuan, the northern capital, has a considerable area of cultivated land, and has animal husbandry conditions, supporting green material towers and alfalfa, which can not only maintain the livelihood in the state, but also for Luzhou tyrants, only cotton, a year's income is worth 20 years of millet.
As for Li Yuanli, before he went to Xuzhou, he had already mixed 2,000 stone of white sugar "production capital", which was hung in the name of a Jeju businessman, and the "partner" with him was Fang Jun, the teasing son of King Fang Tian.
At present, white sugar is not afraid of being prolific, because it is not worried about not being able to sell, the problem is that there is always a high price. The princes of the Southern Tianzhu Tubang and the tribal leaders in the area of the Gaoda Kingdom are the most lucrative, and those who can eat this piece must have a close relationship with the Jiangnan Boat Group of the Denglai Merchant Group.
Li Yuanli was able to catch Zhang De because of Fang Yiai, and Fang Yiai relied on his father's face, Lao Zhang didn't look down on Fang Yiai's muscle stick at all, but it was really his father's strength, and his father was ready to start construction of the Grand Canal during his tenure and wanted to pass through Sizhou. Hebei Road and Huainan Road are connected by a straight line from south to north.
The Grand Canal that Yang Erxiu repaired is a big trouser, and the transshipment efficiency is not good, it is purely for Luoyang City.
Because Cui Hongdao and Xiao Keng teamed up to make a shop in Denglai, Haizhou, Cui's Xuzhou six-room at this time was definitely rich. Just like that, the proceeds of the light whale baleen and whale oil directly pressed the land of the Wucheng people on the ground and rubbed it. The East China Sea has an extremely large number of whales.
The shop that Xiao Ergongzi voted for was the "Dongfeng" fleet going east, and then going around Dongying, slipping south, and then going ashore from Ryukyu or Haizhou. The swimming route of the whale group is relatively fixed, as long as it can endure the loneliness, the fleet will only target the whale group at a time, and will not raid the island natives, which can also make a profit.
Moreover, nowadays, there are more whale meat in the Youji area, such as the Shicheng Iron and Steel Factory, because of the different working modes, it is basically necessary to ensure that the workers have meat at a moment's notice, otherwise they will not be able to maintain high-intensity heavy physical work. This alone makes the price of meat near the Shicheng Iron and Steel Plant comparable to that of Luoyang Beicheng, the eastern city of Chang'an.
However, the consumer groups in the three places are very different, the main consumer group of Shicheng Iron and Steel Plant is workers, those slave workers who have taken off their lowly status, in order to change their appearance faster, need to contact the Han people from time to time, wine and meat are indispensable. In Luoyang, Chang'an, meat eaters are still the main force of high-ranking officials and nobles, although the consumption power of the common people is also increasing, but the proportion is relatively small, and it is impossible to guarantee that they can eat meat every day, even if it is cheap pork, pork produced by the non-China Resources system, the taste is really difficult to swallow.
Li Yuanli can agree to Li Yuanjia's suggestion so readily, and write together to leave Cui Hongdao behind and continue to work under the new King Xu, naturally it will not be so boring.
Xuzhou at this time is not the Xuzhou of later generations. At this time, the geographical location of Xuzhou, most of the area went deep into the northern Anhui and southern Henan in later generations, and belonged to the authentic Central Plains rich land.
There is a large population here, others are not clear, but Cui Hongdao is very clear, because of the relaxed demographic environment, coupled with the compromise with the Shandong Shi clan back then, the number of hidden households in Xuzhou is not an exaggeration to say that it is one to one with the registered population. In the area of Renshan and Dinggong Mountain, the number of hunters, stonemasons, charcoal burners, etc., there are six or seven thousand in the year of Wude, and the soldiers are ferocious, there are mountains and rivers here, and the land is also fertile.
Again, the northern part of Xuzhou is gentle, is a large plain, in later generations it is Weishan Lake, formed by the Yellow River bursting the embankment, but at this moment, it is a big granary. Teng County to Pei County, the vast piece, the average mu production capacity of two and a half stones, Surabaya does not exert power, up to three stones.
Coal, salt, iron, copper and grain, there is no shortage of anything, and water resources are extremely abundant, it can be said that as long as he is ruthless, Li Yuanli will not say that he will get rich overnight, and he will be able to speak loudly among the kings within two years, there is no problem at all.
It's just that all this, it is impossible to rely on him Li Yuanli, there must be Xuzhou landowners, and there must be China Resources and Zhongyi Society.
The former is Cui Hongdao, and the latter is Zhang De.
"This Cui Hongdao is the Xuzhou house of the Qinghe Cui family?"
In Chang'an City, the Taiji Palace, which has undergone the final renovation, is installing large pieces of flat glass, which is different from the previous palaces, and the lighting is very good, and there is no need for many lights inside. After inspecting the palatial palace, Li Dong chatted with his uncle with great interest.
For a while, the eldest grandson Wuji had been hiding from the Zaifu, for fear of being caught and hung up, and finally waited until Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui came out with a vote of retainers to get a "production capital", and the old yin goods came out.
"Yes, but I heard that there are quite differences with Wucheng."
"Hmm."
Li Dong's eyes lit up, nodded and said, "The two things King Xu are also a beautiful conversation." ”
"Your Majesty is very true."
The old yin patted his ass without a trace, and secretly said in his heart: This Cui Hongdao, the luck is really good.
