Chapter 5 Running for Officials
In a secluded place in the south city of Luoyang, there are seventeen or eighteen local dogs in the workshop, and most of the carriages and horses are board cars and wheelbarrows, and the styles are all southern wood, but they are very well maintained, and they are painted.

"Nineteen Lang, the second son of the Duke of Qian Guo wants to discuss with us about the lease of the 'production capital'."
"Don't bother, it's a rammer."
Known as Nineteen Lang, the big name Lu Feiniao, is Lu Deming's nephew, little Lu Feibai is a few years old, because his father is good at bird books, so he was named Asukia.
"Nineteen Lang, the second son of Chai brought gold and silver seriously this time."
"Oh? He didn't go to take advantage of it? It's surprising. ”
Smiling, Lu Feiniao put on a white robe and said, "Then meet him, so as not to make people think that our Lu family is how." ”
Because of the circulation of cash crops, the north-south exchange is three streets stronger than the matchmaking of the imperial court. There is no need for the boss Li Dong to come out to be a peacemaker, and the northern and southern scholars naturally come together for the same dream.
"I never expected that the price of this 'production capital' would change several times a day. The 10,000 stones of Zheng Yuanjun's family, now someone shouted the price of 2 million yuan, which directly doubled. ”
"If you change hands, you still have to make money, who can still get along with money."
"I think this sugar industry will be rotten sooner or later."
"Anyway, there are only dozens of sugar workshops, and it will take a few years to make them rotten."
Fellow villagers from Changzhou, Suzhou, were there to discuss what had happened in Luoyang in the past few days. For the sake of "production capital", big investors don't talk about him, they are all throwing money and throwing money again.
However, the small household that grabbed the "production capital" has already died more than a dozen people for this thing, and Luoyang Ling is in a hurry and is about to jump into Luoshui.
"There was a man from Runan who was killed last night, and the 'production capital' was not hot, and the money could not fall on his head. The 'production capital' of 500 stones, just like that, a person died. Speaking of which, it is also a person who does things for others, and the proprietor is a land-sitting household in Runan, and if he is in his hometown, he will also walk sideways if he wants to come. Now, I'm afraid that even his proprietor will spit out this 'property'. ”
"There is a bald donkey in Qizhou, who said that he was the apprentice of a mage, and he also got a 'production capital' of 1,500 stones. It was also not hot, but he was stopped by the floating slaughter in Henan, saying that Buddhism is boundless, it is all bullshit, and in the end, the 'production capital' of 100,000 yuan was transferred to the thieves in Henan Province. Phew, aren't those bald donkeys still big dogs? Whatever! ”
People die for money, birds die for food, for the sake of sugar production licenses, in just a few days, there are so many dead or disabled people in Luoyang that they can't do it, not to mention that Luoyang ordered to jump into Luoshui, even the state and county officials of Henan Province are also frightened, and they are afraid that those merchants who have drawn the quota of "production capital" will die in their jurisdiction.
But despite the big trouble, the big families are still very calm, and the state and county officials are both afraid and excited. This sugar production license means that a certain amount of white sugar can be legally produced, and if it can be produced under its own rule, not to mention the matter of tax collection, it is secretly beneficial and honorable, and it will not be less after all.
If the producer has a wide range of doors, maybe he can also get a dark share of a penny, which is simply a benefit in the welfare. Many state and county officials are inquiring about this situation to see if there is good luck under their rule, if there is, then it must be shown to be raised again, and then every three or five Dragon Boat Festival Mid-Autumn Festival mixed belly round.
The movement in Luoyang Sugar Market is so big, but Lao Zhang is very calm in Hanyang, and this matter has nothing to do with him. Anyway, if you really want to make a profit, you want to ask for such a big island, and set aside a few sugar cane orchards to specialize in fishing, no problem at all. At present, the demand for sugar in the hundreds of princes of the princely states in Nantianzhu is quite large, and the country of Gaoguo can make the difference, and it can earn more than five per catty, which can be imagined.
It's also funny, Nan Tianzhu himself also produces white sugar, but the decolorization is not good, the yellow is terrible, and compared with the white sugar like Datang snowflakes, the gap is huge. Therefore, because the country of Gaoda was engaged in the re-export trade of white sugar, it directly washed away the local sugar industry in Tianzhu.
Not to mention the fact that twenty or thirty princes of the Tubang who specialize in local sugar went bankrupt directly, they actually asked the Tang Shipping Company of the Gundam Kingdom if they were interested in buying some untouchables under their rule......
The polarization of the caste system is even more cruel than Lao Zhang imagined.
"This mother, dozens of people have died in Luoyang, and for this 'production capital', I really don't want my life." Lao Li sighed with emotion, compared to Lao Zhang's routine, he was a bird in Hebei, and the people of Hebei still had a way to live, so they could go to their relatives in Henan.
But the white sugar that Lao Zhang made back then, before and after, for the snowflake-like sugar, no less than 5,000 people died.
How many fangs did Feng Ang kill in order to get a sugarcane field? Gray sugar was trafficked into Beijing from all over the world, and how many coolies died? How many slave laborers died in the workshop for the sake of secrecy? How many Hu merchants died in the field of trading sugar?
Now, in order to "produce capital", the large households are still civilized, and most of them divide the cakes first, and the small households directly pick up the machete and cut each other. Hacked the three generations of wealth and wealth, hacked to death...... Hacked to death and pulled down!
"Your compassionate appearance really touches me, if Brother Li doesn't help share my worries, I still have a 20,000 stone Nantianzhu list here, you can take it as an envoy?"
"How does this make, how embarrassing is this...... Seriously? ”
"Get out."
Lao Zhang glanced at him, and casually threw a report from Chang'an Mansion, "Last year, the dam repair achieved initial results, and Duan Shangshu praised you a lot." There are three vacancies right now, and if you want to, I'll ask someone to run for you. ”
"What vacancy?"
"Anzhou Yingcheng has vacated a county order seat, and the people who are fighting for it are ...... To be honest, there are not many swamps in this place, and if you want to produce something, you need to build a field and build a dam. Cao Yun Division has a Huainan Road East Cao Yun Cheng in the east of Huainan Road, and the Grand Canal will be excavated this year, and Fang Xiang intends to dig all the way to his hometown, which is a fat shortage. The last one is in Fuzhou, Shannan Province, and there is also a vacancy in Jingling County. ”
"Jingling is also a fat shortage."
Lao Li can carry it clearly, Jingling is next door to Chuzhou, close to the Chuanchuan, the topography is much stronger than that of Chuzhou, and the most important thing is that Jingling is a county, and the area is comparable to that of a state in Chuzhou. Moreover, the Jingling marshland is mainly concentrated in the southeast, and although the northwest is hilly, most of them are flat land, properly developed, and the number of acres is quite amazing.
At present, the amount of cultivated land in Jingling has been concealed, and according to the data reported to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the amount of cultivated land here is 350,000 mu.
How many are there? Because Lao Li was wandering here in Zhangde, he also went to Jingling along the Han River, and according to the estimates of the shopkeepers of China Resources, it was at least more than 1.5 million mu.
In other words, Jingling County directly concealed more than one million acres of land, which is quite absurd. However, this matter is not the intention of the successive chief officials of Jingling, but it really involves large local households and the loose statistical policy since the founding of Li Tang, which is a common phenomenon in the whole country, but Jingling County is more ferocious and bold.
"Then Jingling. White sugar is not taken for nothing, and someone has to contribute to this matter. ”
For Lao Zhang, his country's largest construction site, it is naturally more reliable to have a super granary like Jingling County.
"Who are you looking for? Ordinary people don't dare to provoke the Duke of Danyang County. ”
"I'm looking for King Wu."
“……”
Lao Li suddenly stopped talking.
