Chapter 103: Shatai Officials

Since decades ago, there has never been a time period in which Liaodong County has developed as rapidly as it does now. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The last one vigorously developed Liaodong Taishou was the first time in the Han Dynasty to discover iron ore in Qianshan, in just a few years, the later Taishou and the imperial court felt that Liaodong had few skilled craftsmen, and road transportation was more inconvenient, so the Qianshan iron ore was shelved, and then there was a change in the four counties of Goguryeo and Han, and under the war for many years, Liaodong no longer had the opportunity to move from decay to prosperity.

The successive Taishou were only to appease the people.

Yanbei changed all this because this is his hometown, and because everything here is considered private.

The county orders and taishou cannot drive local development, because they are only officials who govern the government. The local situation is controlled by the wealthy families, which is a situation in which scholars and the imperial court rule the world together.

This is also the only advantage of the rebels in Yanbei who occupy the magpie's nest compared with others, they don't care about the court or the wealthy family, the entire Liaodong has the Xiangping Gongsun clan and the Youtian clan has been wiped out one after another, and Yanbei has become a situation that no one can resist in the county, and in a very short period of time, the entire Liaodong will be included in the palm of the hand with the strength of the army.

The Yan family is the biggest strong man in Liaodong. Fields, money, salt, iron, soldiers, officials, everything that can be used to control the people are in the hands of Yanbei, and only in this way can Fu Zhi let go of his hands to develop Liaodong.

Liaodong County, Xiangping County Office.

Yan Bei sat on the top and played with the delicate crossbow equipped with Zilong, with a happy smile on his face...... On this trip, he went to see Wenxian Water Village, Xiangping Tiewu, and Qianshan Iron Mine, and the three places brought him a very happy feeling.

Needless to say, in another half a year, the water village will have two fighting ships and five ships, supplemented by a naval army composed of nearly 100 small boats, and in the case that the entire Youzhou does not care about the naval army, his naval army can swim in the East China Sea, and no one can stop it. This means that in the shortest possible time, he can advance by land and water, leaving Youzhou on the road on the 20th day, and sending 3,000 sailors to any place along the coast of Youzhou within 15 days of the sea going north by land and water.

Even if it is Bohai County, it can be reached within a month, and there is no fear of any card on the road.

It's a pity that Liu Yu doesn't agree with his plan to go south, otherwise next June, they will be able to take Jizhou into their pockets.

In Xiangping Tiewu, they improved the strong crossbow and added a tablet called 'Zilong' to the Liushi One Crossbow Machine, which greatly improved the stability of the crossbow, made the arrows shoot more accurately and farther, so that the crossbow machine could be used in a bumpy state, and increased the situation that could maintain shooting.

With more than 1,000 apprentices in hand, it will be possible to improve all the crossbow machines in Liaodong in time, and the strong crossbows in Liaodong will stand alone in the world.

As for the Qianshan Iron Mine in Anping Township, Yanbei was not idle during the three months he went out. From time to time, people who had moved from all over the country to make ends meet were digging in the mines and transporting stones in exchange for a payment that would feed them. Their efforts have led to a significant increase in the production of iron ore and stone.

Three months ago, the mine could only dig 100 catties of iron ore a day, and the iron produced was only 60%, and even less steel was used to forge weapons. If you want to forge a hundred refinements, it's only three or five catties. Now, this amount has increased by more than ten times, and it can produce more than 1,000 catties of iron every day, and can forge 620 to 700 catties of iron ingots, which is enough to cope with the huge consumption of Tiewu.

In addition to mining copper and iron, Qianshan can also mine huge amounts of coal and various kinds of stone every day, and there are countless of them.

The stone mines of Qianshan and the logs in the southeast of Liaoning have solved the large number of raw materials necessary for the development of handicraft industry in eastern Liaoning, and solved the great trouble of Yanbei.

After a while, Fu Zhu came with a wooden plate and a scroll on it, followed by Zhen Yao, Zhao Zhao, and Tian Yu, and on the other side of the county government, there were Gao Lan, Zhang Jaw, Tai Shici, Zhao Yun, Jiao Touch and others.

"General, the household registration has arrived."

Yan Bei bowed his head, please take a seat, his own samurai entourage will present the wooden slip, Yan Bei picked up the wooden slip and looked at it roughly and said: "I called you here today to talk about the arrangements made a year ago, and I also hope that you can recommend talents and enrich the county government; Another one is that Wang Yi sent a letter from Goguryeo, which made me feel a little difficult to do, so I called everyone to discuss it. ā€

Yan Bei closed the book, looked up with joy on his face and said: "Now there are more than 110,000 households in Liaodong, and you have made great contributions. Gonghe, I don't have anything to dictate in the affairs of the county, and you are much better at governing than me...... Is there an unresolved matter in the county that you need my help with these months? ā€

In fact, Yanbei is not looking at the civil register, these books in addition to the civil register, there are also business registers, craftsman registers, and military registers, these are the things that Yanbei wants to know carefully, on the other hand, after the household registration, there are also the tax expenses of the counties this year, which Yanbei is specifically looking for frustration...... After talking to Sun Qing, he had this idea, and he thought that the earlier martial artist was no longer suitable for the county order, and this matter needed to be changed.

"My lord, there are indeed two things in my subordinates. First, since the summer, the recruitment of talents has been effective, and many Confucian students who have taken refuge in Liaodong have now filled the township, county officials, and counties, but there are several celebrities who still need to be visited by the general, such as Lu Zigan, the old scholar of Zhuo County, Guoyuan Guozini, a famous scholar of Le'an County, Guan Ning, Guan Youan, and others in Beihai to show their attention. ā€

Fu Zhu continued: "The second thing is the transfer of officials, now all the officials have been in office for more than half a year, and the taxes are compared with the cases in the county in previous years, except for Xiangping...... The money and grain collected were less than in previous years, and the general should reward and punish them, and select capable officials to serve as county magistrates. ā€

The reason why Fu Zhu wants to say this matter today is because even if he is the Taishou of Liaodong, he can't be the master of Yanbei. Today's Liaodong Taishou is equivalent to dividing the military power in the county in the hands of Yanbei, but most of these county orders are Yanbei's cronies, and the martial artists are not good at political affairs.

Chen Zuo, the chief of Pingguo, does not know what to do in the county silently, and he is diligent in transporting wood and stone on weekdays, but the taxes collected are thirty percent less than last year in the county; As for the Xinchang Chang Pan Ling, Xi'an Ping Chang Wu Shuang, these two are either bandits in the mountains and wilderness, or the strong clan, now as the county magistrate, but it is inevitable that the old habits are difficult to change, the county Zhongtian does not think about reclamation but practices all day long, it is estimated that the war is fierce and tight, and the taxes that can be collected are less than 40% and 50% less.

This is the destruction of the fields in the spring, and there is no war in the southeast of Liaoning, not to mention that the field rent is less, and the tax will not be less, right?

The last thing that can be said is Jiang Jin, the chief of the Han Dynasty, who is far away from the emperor in that place, and has a school captain in his hand to garrison Xi'an Ping County, and half of the collected field guards are deducted for military rations, and all the taxes are suppressed and said that they are to be used in Lelang County to support Yandong. Only ordered a Qu soldier to transport thirty percent of the grain of the previous year to Xiangping, plus the road consumption, it was sent to Xiangping 170 wagons, and all the grain on it was eaten by this Qu soldier and sold secretly along the way, but he also made a fuss to let Xiangping order Tian Yu to allocate 300 stone of grain for them to eat on the way back...... After a year's tax co-authoring, he was sent two volumes of books written like dogs.

I haven't seen a grain of food!

These things were discussed with Yanbei in private, who would have thought that Yanbei would just laugh when he heard it, and he didn't take it seriously at all, but said: "The tax deduction will be deducted, and the grain will be eaten, what he says is indeed what he does, I believe him." However, I have to write a letter to him when I go back, and let him take care of his soldiers, and it is not okay to sell food secretly. ā€

Yanbei doesn't care, and the county magistrates are all such guys, so where can this Liaodong Taishou be comfortable, he can only make it clear to Yanbei today...... The great Confucian celebrities can not visit, but the county magistrate must be changed!

Hearing what Fu Zhu said, Yan Bei smiled again.

He knew what Fu Zhi was thinking in his heart, and he also knew that Fu Zhi was unhappy because of Jiang Jin and the others, but he couldn't help it...... He was so happy!

Others won't talk about it, Pan Ling and Wu Shuang are punished for not doing a good job, it doesn't matter. Jiang Jin and Chen Zuo, how will he be punished? These are all old brothers who know the roots, and they came and died in their early years, don't they know what kind of virtue Jiang Jin Chen Zuo is? When he appointed them to official positions, he knew what the two of them would govern the two counties into.

Chen Zuo is an honest man, he has no talent in fighting and governing politics, and he is still very delicious in making cakes...... But can he take steamed cakes to influence a county? Jiang Jin is not to mention, he is an expert in slapping horses and dancing knives, and he is greedy for money and rude, and he never lags behind, what soldiers can he bring, and what counties can he govern?

Yanbei knows it.

At the beginning of Emperor Gao's founding of the country, when Xiao Lu Juan was the king of Yandi, could you not know that he had no great ability? But he didn't divide it yet, and finally forced people to rebel.

After all, it's not that the old brother is guarding him to have meat to eat, he can't even let people drink the soup, right?

So Yan Bei could only smile and say to the serious frustration: "Well, tomorrow, I'll visit them tomorrow." As for the county magistrates, they can't do good things, so let's replace them with someone else. But at that time, I chose to let them go, after all, we have no better choice, rewards and punishments, I think it's okay. Pan Ling and Wu Shuang were transferred to the Xiangping camp as military marquis, and Chen Zuo's words were exempted from the county order and transferred back to Tiewu, so that he could assist Lei Gong in managing iron affairs. ā€

"As for Jiang Jin, there is a big problem with his soldiers and horses! Zilong, I remember that you have Xia Houlan under you, and you are familiar with military law, right? When Jiang Jin came back, he demoted Sima of the other department, transferred Xiahoulan to his subordinates as a military marquis, and trained his soldiers well! Well, I think that's it. Yan Bei said, afraid that Fu Zhu would hold on to it again, and asked him: "Gong He, I remember that you have a brother named Fu Zong Fu Gongfeng, but he has the talent to learn, if he can, let him be the head of the Han Dynasty...... Is it feasible? ā€
