Political creatures are not only pure struggle or unity, even if the old yin and his brother-in-law are no longer on the wrong path, but after all, under the system of the monarch and the court, the transfer of power is a struggle, but unity and cooperation are still there.

Man has to survive.

"Originally, after 18 years of Zhenguan, we all thought that there was nothing wrong with the South China Sea. A typical place of 'miasma' is still hot all year round. The population is small and scattered, not much to say, the mountains and forests are dense, and even the rainforest is in patches, and the geography must be chosen to grow rice. If you want to invest, hundreds of thousands of times, I am afraid that you will not be able to hear two sounds. With this money, it is better to buy a house in Luoyang. ”

At the meeting in the first month, Zhang De wanted to explain the policy clearly to the subordinate adjutants, and the "big policy" of the imperial court has always been dominated by the emperor's personal will.

As for what the emperor's personal will was, even the Persian cat in the palace knew.

Li Dong is to further strengthen the "multi-point flowering, heart management", in his lifetime to be able to decentralize the imperial power to the Central Plains townships, the historical status of the first emperor is not a problem.

In the future, all the abbots of the social sciences will say that Emperor Taizong's thief Nima is cool.

The "heart" is the Central Plains and Guanluo, there is no doubt about this. It's just that "more points" are a little subtle, and they were originally about Jingluo, Huaiyang, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Chengdu, and Taiyuan. Later, it gradually strengthened the Liaodong around the Shicheng Iron and Steel Plant, the Xihetao of the Dahe Workshop, and the Silk Road of Dunhuang. Until now, it may be necessary to add Wuhan, Guangzhou, Jiaozhou, and Moxi.

Li Dong's mentality is quite good, even if he is very anxious in his heart, but he can hold it back, and Yang Guang's impatience is completely two styles.

Announcing this kind of thing in the South China Sea, as the master of the empire, Li Dong has one meaning: "I am fortunate to have gained, and I have lost my life". Of course, if Du Xiucai really messes things up, he will definitely "lose his life" and make a fool of himself.

"I just didn't think that the convenience of hardware mining in the South China Sea is more beneficial than that of Fusang. After all, with hardware, it will save more effort to rectify Lingnan Guangzhou. In the future, the imperial court will sort out the places of Jiaozhou and Aizhou, and it will not be as powerful as before. ”

Holding the teacup, Zhang De looked around, and then said to the subordinates who were taking notes, "With the brand of the imperial court, Lingnan led by the people of Guangzhou, can follow the example of those 'imperial merchants' in Yangtze County." Of course, he can't be an 'imperial businessman', but in these years, who really dares to only pick up cheap and not suffer losses? Whether it is 'gold' or 'taxes', Feng must find a reason to hand it over to the imperial court. As for the copycat cave masters under the Feng family and the Xian family, as long as they go to sea, eat, drink, sleep, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, what kind of expenses do not cost? These things, you can't Feng still carry them by himself, right? The South China Sea cannot be highly productive, and it still depends on China. ”

"This has come and gone, and the people's power that Lingnan has withdrawn, to say the least, is there. This, in turn, stabilized the situation in Lingnan. Fangren repeatedly, and it was also repeated when life was bad. Of course, there are some cottage caves, and the villagers are slaves, so there is nothing to say. It's not as good as before, but now China is powerful and wealthy, and it can do this business. ”

When the staff heard that they were doing "business", they all laughed. In fact, this routine is a typical "China Resources Flow". In the past, the rule of restraint was really incomprehensible to the input-output ratio. Even if it is a Khitan, it is a loss.

If you suppress a tribe of about 20,000 people, you can't kill them all, and if you do this, the entire Khitan will rebel. But if you don't kill, will it be possible to make a litter of prisoners of war for you?

Therefore, although the previous imperial court policy was also "suppressing and appeasing at the same time", it was to ensure that the barbarians in the border areas did not make trouble, but this is a typical symptom but not a root cause.

Until Cangzhou was made up of Xue Dading and China Resources, the officials and people of both sides worked together, and suddenly there was a shortage of labor in Cangzhou. And this labor shortage is not temporary, but long-term, more than ten years.

This made Xue Dading keenly grasp the key, and behind the China Resources, there is not only a local dog wagging its tail there to sell cuteness. What Zou Guogong and his wife did, Yu Gong didn't talk about it, and there was nothing to say. It is very different from selfishness, it can be said that the Khitan was broken back, and the lack of resistance of the military force is of course the reason, but it is not fundamental, after all, in the past, thirty or fifty years later, I Khitan is a good man again.

The fundamental problem is that the Khitan tradition of "nomadism" and "nomadic farming" was directly crushed to death, starting from the Sanzhou timber warehouse, to the establishment of the Shicheng Iron and Steel Plant, and then to the construction of the wharf at the mouth of the Bohai River. The "Khitan", a Liaodi ethnic group, was completely wiped out in the "collective consciousness".

Intuitively speaking, this is the Khitan's "dead world" and "dead species".

It is of the same nature as the Khitan, with a relatively large scale and a more complex situation, which is naturally the fangzhai in the southern region.

When Lao Zhang arrived in Linzhou, Jiangxia still had a cave village that was canonized and rewarded by the imperial court, but in just a few years, there was no pure "fangzhai" in Wuhan. The original habits of the fangren have also been completely worn out with the operation of the big grinding plate of Wuhan.

As long as the extension of every official road, relaxation road, and track in Wuhan is extended, the caves in the surrounding areas will be rapidly transformed.

Violent deterrence, profit buying, long-term promises...... This is a method that pervades all classes of barbarians, and it works.

After all, in front of the violent units of the Tang Dynasty, there was no unity.

The effectiveness of "China Resources Flow" will naturally be imitated. Guangzhou people "started" with sugarcane planting and gray sugar export, which is naturally suitable for this model. It's just that the scale of the force is weaker, and the territory is smaller.

But no matter how small, as Zhang De said, this "business" can be done.

The Feng family and the Xian family can not only transfer the hatred of the Lingnan fangs, but also make a fortune from it, which can be said to kill multiple birds with one stone.

"So this year, it is foreseeable that Du Xiucai needs a lot of boats, and he has to build shipyards in Guangzhou, Jiaozhou, Aizhou, and Huanzhou. The people in the house, either teaching or calling, in short, this year is definitely busier than eighteen years, much busier. ”

The shipyards that can really build big ships quickly in all parts of the country are still only Hanyang, and Rao is Yangzi County has repaired the shipyard, but it can only be built in eight years, and the construction period is quite long.

"Shipyards and ship repair yards are all going to be expanded. Today's orders are still at the end of the sixteenth year of Zhenguan. Iyo Copper Mountain was excavated, and a year later, 2,000 ships were added. The South China Sea shipping route is more complex and diverse, and it also involves the rectification of Jiaozhou, and how many ships and how many people will be in a year or two years will be planned in advance. ”

Zhang De paused and told the subordinate adjutants of the various ministries, "Originally, boatmen and sailors, Suzhou and Hangzhou began to prepare for the school, although we in Wuhan said that there was no on the surface, in fact, there were. It's just that this year, it will be officially reported, and professors, doctors, and the court will not be missing. We have to anticipate the demand for seagoing crew in the future, and it is difficult to have an upper limit on the number of them. Since Wuhan is in the lead, it should be the only one. ”

Everyone listened to Zhang De's words, and they all thought it was true. Although Wuhan and the South China Sea are separated by thousands of miles, they are quite closely connected.

The rate of return of "Nanhai Hardware" is also enough to make Wuhan political and business groups salivate, and if the sea ships look at Wuhan today, and look at Hanyang with thousands of miles of Fubo, the sharp weapons are in hand, and the South China Sea is "children holding gold and swaggering through the market", all of which are Vanity Fair animals, why bother to pretend to be vegetarian.
