In the process of defeating Ma Teng, Zhang Yu captured more than 10,000 Roman troops.

Originally, Zhang Yu wanted them to dig the canal, but after thinking about it, Zhang Yu felt that they should use it in a different way.

Zhang Yu made these 10,000 people smoke opium.

Yes, let them suck the Fushou ointment, and then let them go back.

Fushou paste has already been smoked by a certain number of people in the West, Zhang Yu directly let 10,000 people smoke it this time, and finally sent them back in batches.

When they go back, these people are seeds, they need Fushou ointment, and they need to import it from Zhang Yu.

Then, there is a certain market.

And these 10,000 people will also drive more people to smoke.

Zhang Yu brought not only Fushou ointment, but also tobacco.

Zhang Yu has already begun to promote tobacco, and it has already reached a certain scale.

These prisoners of the Roman army, while working, generally smoked Fushou ointment, and for a time they felt very good.

After smoking for about ten days, Zhang Yu asked them to take part of the Fushou ointment, and then followed the caravan to the west back.

These people can only go back in batches, and now that several strongholds have been destroyed, it will take some time to recover.

In addition, it is necessary to send envoys over first to tell the Romans that Ma Teng's father and son have perished, and now is the era of Zhang Yu, so that they can continue to trade if they want to trade, and if they don't trade, they will not interact directly.

It is now the West that does not interact with each other and is uncomfortable.

Zhang Yu has opened up a large number of markets, even if he does not rely on other places, he can develop rapidly.

The development strategy has been determined, it doesn't matter if there is no Western participation, when Zhang Yu is strong, he will use strong force to kill him.

Zhang Yu stayed in Wuwei for more than ten days, and then handed over the matter here to Xi Zhicai, and Zhang Yu left by himself.

This time he first went to Luoyang, and then to Jingzhou.

At this time, Jingzhou was the base camp for attacking Shuchuan, Zhang Yu destroyed Liangzhou, and could even semi-encircle Shuchuan.

However, Shuchuan is still difficult to break into.

If you can't go in directly, you have to think about it in the long run.

This Guo Jia and Chen Gong have been operating here for a while.

Zhang Yu asked the two cabinet members to promote here, and the efficiency was still very high.

In Jingzhou, Zhang Yu called Chen Gong and Guo Jia.

"Two gentlemen, there is only one Shuchuan left in the whole of China, and this Shuchuan must also be unified, and it will be completed within one or two years." Zhang Yu said.

Unification is the basis for take-off, if there is no unification, Zhang Yu still has to maintain a large number of troops, and there will be a large amount of military expenditure every year.

Not only that, but a lot of supplies still have to be transported here.

Therefore, unification is very important for any era and for any country.

Guo Jia said: "Lord, it has been determined that this Liu Bei is critically ill, and I am afraid that he will not last long." ”

Zhang Yu nodded, this Liu Bei was arrogant and lascivious, and he was poisoned by the Fushou ointment, so he really couldn't last long.

The death of a Liu Bei will greatly speed up the process of unification, because there is only one Adou in Shuchuan.

This Adou has no talent, especially when he is still young, and he may be able to use it when the time comes.

And this Pang Tong is not Kong Ming, this Kong Ming is good at handling government affairs, and all kinds of government affairs can be handled very well, but Pang Tong is not good.

Pang Tong is good at scheming and military, and he is very unfamiliar with government affairs.

Shuchuan does not have a very talented internal affairs talent, and there will definitely be a lot of drawbacks.

"Accelerate the progress, and use more dark means when necessary."

With means, Zhang Yu can't take care of so much.

"Lord, we are now looking for people in key positions, secretly plotting against some people, but we haven't rebelled against the top yet."

"At the same time, some merchants in Shuchuan are very willing to cooperate with us, as long as the lord does not harm their interests when the time comes."

Guo Jia has been here for a few months, and the speed of progress is still very fast.

Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Of course you can, but there is one point, except for not confiscating some of their wealth, the land, including others, is no different from other merchants." ”

Zhang Yu believed that these businessmen would cooperate with him, and after they arrived in Shuchuan, if they didn't smuggle, then they would be stagnant, and they would even have been eating their old books.

In Shuchuan, how big can you do in business?

They can see that Zhang Yu will definitely dominate the world.

And it won't be long before it will be unified, and when the time comes, he will wait for his wealth to be confiscated, and it is better to cooperate with Zhang Yu now and keep his family property.

As for Liu Bei, this Liu Bei's reputation was not very good, although he didn't do anything evil when he arrived in Shuchuan, but after he arrived here, he enjoyed himself all day long and didn't do anything.

These families knew that there was no future for Liu Bei, and now Liu Bei was dying.

After his death, their lives may be even more sad, so these businessmen plan to turn against this Liu Bei.

Liu Bei's rebellion has no psychological burden on everyone.

Zhang Yu was quite satisfied with Guo Jia's arrangement with Chen Gong.

Then he said to Chen Gong: "Gongtai, the cabinet still needs you, and then there will be another round of innovation, you are in charge of education so fast, and you also need to go back and arrange more talents." ”

To deal with Shuchuan, Zhang Yu no longer needs to use any clever tactics.

Just let Guo Jia, the person in charge of intelligence, be in charge.

Zhang Yu shifted the main thing to internal affairs.

In Jingzhou, Zhang Yu also began to deal with internal affairs.

First of all, he must continue to push forward with the construction of roads and canals.

This is a national policy, and it is necessary to make the entire land of China able to traffic quickly, so that such a huge country can be effectively governed.

"With the national strength and the military coming to an end, I want to disarm 200,000 troops and build a Beijing-Shanghai Expressway with the military funds saved by these 200,000 troops." Zhang Yu said with a budget sheet in his hand.

It's a form he made himself.

He wants to build a highway and deduct it directly from the military budget.

This military expenditure is the money he had budgeted before and had prepared.

Originally, the budget was that it would take two years to fight in Liangzhou, but it turned out to be more than half a year.

There is a lot of military spending left, and Zhang Yu wants to take out some of it to build a road.

This highway is really high, because it has to use cement.

The original road was directly renovated with cement to make the road faster.

The choice to lay cement on the original road is also to reduce the difficulty of construction and speed up the construction.

This road is subject to tolls, of course, not for pedestrians, but for vehicles.

You can walk freely on it, but if you're transporting goods and getting the car on the road, you'll have to pay a fee.

In this way, a certain amount of cost can be recovered.

Zhang Yu: The cost of the cement they fired is still very high.

However, he wants to use the market and demand to activate the entire industry, and when the whole industry rises, maybe the price will come down.

A new round of great development in internal affairs is also coming.
