Chang'an, Qingliang Palace.

Liu Che lowered his head and looked at the piece of paper in front of him.

This is a report just sent by the Prime Minister's Office.

"There are more than 9,000 cavalry ...... the Lou Fu Army"

"Loyal and brave army, more than 13,000 horsemen......"

"Karasuma Army, more than 8,000 cavalry ......"

In his mind, numbers flickered.

That's a full 30,000 horsemen!

The ratio of these armies to Han and Hu is generally one to one.

Among them, the middle and low-level officers are basically Han Chinese.

This guarantees the reliability and loyalty of these troops.

Moreover, recently, the brainwashing and propaganda skills of the Han family have increased greatly.

Even Xianbei and Wuheng, who had just surrendered and surrendered, seemed to have submitted and submissive to the Han family.

As for the prisoners of war of the Huns?

Look at the name of this army of their own choosing!

Loyalty!

You must know that at the beginning, Liu Che gave them three choices.

The first is the period gate army, the second is the Kunming army, and the third is this loyal army.

But in the end, they all demanded the name of the Brave.

Although Liu Che didn't go to see that scene in person, he sent eunuchs to see it.

The eunuch came back and reported: The whole army raised their arms and said: Serve your majesty to death, slaves and maids, and are willing to wash away their sins with a loyal and brave heart!

On Lou Fujun's side, Liu Che was even more relieved.

Don't look at the reputation, but this method is really smooth.

To put it mildly, he used a method similar to a glass of wine to release military power, so that the nobles of Lou Fu and Wusun all rolled to the upper valley and got into the pile of old papers.

Think about it, how foreigners in later generations learned Chinese and how difficult it was.

The difficulty of learning Chinese by foreigners in later generations has increased tenfold, and the awkwardness has increased by dozens of times, which is almost the difficulty of learning Han culture in Siyi now.

Even if they just learned to read and write common words, it would be enough for those guys to squat in Upper Valley City for ten or eight years.

That is, Wuheng and Xianbei people, which are not so reassuring.

But it doesn't matter.

When the Central Plains Dynasty was strong, there was no alien race that it could not assimilate and influence.

Han culture and Han civilization also have strong enough charm and strength to make these aliens willingly become Han people, regard themselves as Han people, and fight for the pride and honor of Han people.

And the Zhuxia people and the Han family also have enough self-confidence and courage to believe and be sure that they can indeed assimilate all foreign races.

Even the native chickens can play Macmulyu and let the Greeks fight the Romans.

It doesn't make sense, China, which is countless times more advanced and civilized than the local chicken, does not have this self-confidence and courage.

Put this aside for now.

Liu Che shifted his gaze to another note.

Then, he hugged his head in pain.

In fact, compared to the Xiongnu, in the eyes of the Han monarchs and ministers, the scholars are now the most difficult problem!

According to the report of Shaofu, Neishi and Zhijinwu Yamen, this year's examination of scholars is very likely to break through the 20,000 mark for the first time!

Although among them, there are probably at least 7,000 people, who are back to the pot meat.

Among these back pot meats, there are young people who have failed in the past, but are still obsessed with this.

There are also those who did not do well in the past exams, but were thrown away at the grassroots level, and they couldn't endure hardships at the grassroots level, so they went with their seals, and then came back to participate in the examination.

This kind of thing, as early as two years ago, appeared.

In the Han family system, if the law does not prohibit it, it will not be corrected.

What they did was not illegal.

Therefore, there is no way for the relevant departments to stop it.

And the legislators, including Liu Che, the high-ranking members of the Han family, did not dare to easily legislate to prohibit scholars from abandoning their official positions and re-examining.

The reason is simple.

The courtiers cherished feathers, while Liu Che, the emperor, was afraid of public opinion.

After all, after being an official for a period of time, the young people found that their knowledge was too shallow and felt that they were not enough to represent the monarch and herdsmen, so they went back to study and accumulate knowledge and knowledge, and then came to serve the monarch's father.

As the emperor, as the courtiers of the meat eaters, how can they reproach their desire to learn and self-examination?

Of course, people went for only half a year, or even three or five months, and then came to Chang'an to participate in the examination.

This is people's freedom.

Isn't it a place to speak on the basis of knowledge and knowledge?

Shun is in the acres, Fu Shuo is lifted between the plates, the rubber is lifted in the fish and salt, Guan Yiwu is raised in the Shi, Sun Shu Ao is raised in the sea, and Baili Xi is held in the city.

Heroes don't ask about birth.

Kings should be meritocracy!

This matter is just dragging on.

As a result, the scale of the examination is getting bigger and bigger every year.

Of course, in fact, compared with the back pot meat, the number of emerging scholars is the majority.

In recent years, Liu Che and his ministers, although they have to shout every once in a while: The merchant is a villain!

However, the body is very honest and takes the initiative to loosen many of the shackles that bind the businessman.

Especially three years ago, after the tax law was enacted.

According to the latest tax law, a businessman who pays a tax of 100,000 yuan will be relaxed.

This means that you are allowed to choose your residence without having to live in an area designated by the government.

In the tax law, there are many similar provisions for merchants.

This makes the world's commercial economy more and more prosperous.

A large number of small merchants, the middle class, began to get rich.

In particular, the gold rush of the Andong Protectorate and the opportunities that came with it led to the rise of tens of thousands of merchants.

These merchants, some with hundreds of employees, drove more than a dozen carts and several ships, from south to north, and some were just one person, one on one shoulder, carrying goods, and trekking thousands of miles.

They shipped Chinese-made iron tools, tools, and luxury goods to various parts of Andong, and then exchanged them for local bear skins, deer antlers, gold, ginseng, and other specialties.

One trip down, the profit is doubled.

Recently, Liu Che heard that there are hundreds of big businessmen, including even his father-in-law, Cheng Zheng and Zhuo in Linqiong, have sent important members of the family to Incheon Port in North Korea.

They are there for a very special marine product.

Chen's whaling career began last summer, and it has been a full year this year.

In this year, Chen Yinggan's wind and water have risen.

Catch Japanese slaves while exploring the landforms of the Neon Islands.

However, his main energy is on the whales of the ocean.

Last fall, Chen's whaling team hunted a strange giant whale for the first time.

This giant whale is six or seven feet long and weighs 50,000 stones!

The fat content is very high, it can refine whale oil for thousands of stones, in addition, the whale baleen it grows are soft and elastic.

Of course, none of the above is the point.

The point is, Chen Huan's whaling team found that this strange giant beast that likes to stick its back out of the water swims very slowly, and even a sampan can catch up with its speed!

Moreover, after hunting and killing several times, Chen Huan found that this giant beast is not only large in size and slow in swimming, but more importantly, this giant beast in the ocean will automatically float on the surface after being killed.

Instead of sinking like the whales we've killed before.

This made Chen Huan overjoyed, and decided to stare at this kind of whale killing!

And what made him even more ecstatic and crazy was that he found that the male of this giant beast had a huge **** growing in his body.

The weight of a **** is almost heavier than a bison on land!

And more importantly, when the news came out, the entire Andong Protectorate was a sensation.

Countless people wielded gold and wanted to buy this ****.

Then, Qi Lu and Wu Chu also knew.

One is a marquis, and one is a big man, and they are coming.

Chen Huan counted the money until her hand tendons hurt.

This made Liu Che a little stunned, but also knew a fact - the life of the merchants was not only good, but also better than before he ascended the throne.

In particular, the development of Anton and the subsequent golden tide and the predictable wave of the whale trade.

It will make more and more people devote themselves to business.

These people made money, and in the past, half of the Thai people would choose to go home and annex the land and become a rich man.

However, after Liu Che came to power, he severely cracked down on land annexation, especially the land annexation of businessmen.

Under the slogan of "going to the peasants and eliminating the last", the state frantically increases the taxes on the merger and acquisition of land by merchants, and once the land controlled by merchants reaches 1,000 mu, the land tax will be ten times that of others, and three times the tax on manuscripts!

The money of the merchants, therefore, could not flow into the land.

However, it is not a solution to keep the money at home and get moldy.

Therefore, there is no way, many businessmen have chosen to expand their business and business scope.

But this leads to another problem - the industry is big, and it is easy to be targeted.

Especially the peddlers and pawns, walking the world, naturally encountered all kinds of difficulties and harsh criticism.

Even, there is no shortage of people who have been knocked out of their homes and bankrupts.

The rabbit dies and the fox is sad, and the thing hurts it.

When others see it, they are of course afraid that this kind of experience will happen to them again.

So, without exception, almost all businessmen chose to send their sons and nephews to local celebrities and famous gardens to study after they became prosperous.

There are even businessmen who do not hesitate to spend a lot of money to buy a school district house in Maoling in Chang'an, so as to send their children to Taixue or Wuyuan to study.

Today's businessmen may not have woken up to the point of a capitalist who claims to be 'as busy as the president every day, but without the power of the president'.

However, the desire to buy an amulet and preserve one's possessions is shared by everyone.

In China, the only thing that can protect their lives and property is power.

So inevitably, businessmen tried every means to send their family children and nephews into officialdom.

Moreover, this wave is not new.

As early as the Taizong period, businessmen had already made a name for themselves in the political arena.

It's just that in recent years, their momentum has begun to grow.

And the reason why their popularity has become bigger is that there are more and more people reading among their children and nephews.

They can even influence the positions of some schools of thought now.

And this year is the fifth year after Liu Che ascended the throne.

According to common sense, five years is enough time for a young person to complete his basic studies and have the ability to participate in the examination.

Liu Che can be sure that breaking 20,000 this year will only be a start.

Next year, at most the year after that, it will break 30,000.

Then, this number will be constantly refreshed.

Moreover, there is no doubt that among these scholars, there will be more and more people who were born into merchants.

This is the inevitable result of the development of the commodity economy.

Of course, the wealth of the merchants exceeded that of the landlords.

They will naturally find a way to get their children and nephews into the official career.

And now, in front of Liu Che, it is a multiple-choice question.

"Do you want to suppress these businessmen?" Liu Che pondered in his heart.

There is no doubt that a temporary pressure can alleviate many problems.

First of all, a large number of merchants and scholars were forbidden to take the examination, which would make the landlords and magnates very satisfied, and they would support and support Liu's rule even more.

Although it was just some worthless cheers and likes.

But, no ruler will not want.

Secondly, Liu Che can not have a headache, how should he create jobs this year.

This is important.

And the most critical point.

Now, according to conservative estimates, the number of Shangjia's children is about four or five thousand.

Normally, at least a thousand people might end up admitting.

That's a thousand fewer jobs.

What's more, the nephews of Shangjia are much stronger than those otaku who read dead books.

People are likely to follow their parents from a young age to the north and south, and they are well-informed, and they must be strong in terms of heart and behavior.

In other words, in reality, their final admission may be closer to two thousand!

It looks wonderful.

However, Liu Che knew that this was just drinking to quench his thirst.

It was only a matter of time before businessmen and their sons and nephews poured into officialdom and politics.

Capital will also try to seek power for itself.

Unless Liu Che goes back to the old and evil path, forcefully suppresses their political status, holds a sword, suppresses their voices, and uses violence to destroy the channels they rely on to speak out.

Then, he united with Confucianism and Huang Lao, stepped on Shang Jia with 10,000 feet, and classified him as a pariah.

Otherwise, this day will come sooner or later.

And, most likely, like a spring.

The harder you exert it, the stronger the reaction of the rebound.

And Liu Che knows that he can't go back to the old way and repeat the tragedy of history.

Businessmen and capital, although there are many disadvantages, the benefits are equally obvious.

More importantly, they were like the turn of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when the landlords eliminated the slave owners.

Liu Che knew that sooner or later, businessmen and capital would eliminate the landlords and become the mainstream of the world and the ruling class of the country.

So, to the merchants, to their sons and nephews.

Liu Che's attitude is actually the same as his treatment of landlords and magnates.

It is necessary not only to support and co-opt, but also to suppress and weaken.

At the same time, it is necessary to do a good job of guidance.

"Raze to raze, business to ......" Liu Che held his cheeks, quietly took a pen and paper, and wrote this sentence.

Then, he instructed to the left and right: "Summons the lord Duwei Gongsun Hong and the lord's father, and enter the palace immediately to see me!" ”

Now, the situation is clear.

If Liu Che put a large number of businessmen's children into the officialdom and went to compete with the local lords and nobles for food.

Liu Che had no doubt that the local sovereigns would definitely make a big news.

And the current power of merchants and capital, let alone to shake the ruling foundation of the sovereign nobles.

It's no exaggeration to say that their strength can't even move a county order!

Therefore, for the time being, these young people born in merchants can only be put into the Yamen of the Lord Duwei.

Moreover, in this way, it is possible to kill N eagles with one stone.
