Chapter 148: The Imperial Merchant (I)
There are no hot springs in Shudi, but Wang Hongyi is bathing.
Buckets of hot water are poured into the bathhouse, and there is sake and grilled tripe, lamb loin, and pork in the floating wooden basin, which is really good for relieving fatigue.
Coal is used to boil water, and coal was commonly used as fuel in the Northern Song Dynasty of the Creceous Kingdom on the earth, and in this world, there is also the use of coal, but it does not specifically form minerals.
It's about transportation, and without trains there is no power to transport the whole country.
However, the "Yishan Coal Mine" is a shallow coal seam open-pit coal mine, which really makes Wang Hongyi excited.
After thinking about it, he got up and came out, and Wang Hongyi ordered: "Go to the Secret Pavilion." ”
When I went out, I realized that the snow was falling.
The snow kept falling, and at this moment the temple had been paved with a layer.
In the clear, Wang Hongyi went down, the entrance of the hall was fixed, and then he entered, and when he got inside, he could see everyone saluting, Wang Hongyi at this time, simply waved his hand, didn't pay attention to it at all, sat against the glass window, smoked the documents, and looked thoughtfully at the heavy snow outside.
A moment later, Yu Liangbo came in: "One hundred and seventy-one people are already waiting outside, aren't they?,
"Let's go to the main hall!" Wang Hongyi said.
Not far from the main hall, Wang Hongyi went and saw that the hall had already been cleaned.
One hundred and seventy-one tables were neatly arranged at both ends of the main hall, and he nodded and said, "It's good, let them in!"
"Yes!"
Suddenly, the sound of fine music began, Wang Hongyi sat on the central seat, and after a while, 171 talents from various counties and counties all entered the hall, knelt in front of the hall, and shouted: "Meet the Duke of the Kingdom"
Wang Hongyi nodded with a smile and nodded to Yu Liangbo, who held the yellow book and said loudly: "Everyone is seated according to their rank!"
In the upper left corner of each table, there is a note with their names and places of origin, and these people know at a glance, salute first, and then sit down one after another.
Originally, according to the rules, the candidates were prepared with futons, but Wang Hongyi was exempted and ordered to prepare a small bench, which made Yu Liangbo feel a little "too preferential"!
After a few net whips, the music stopped.
Under the orders of the ceremonial officials, all of them were in place.
Yu Liangbo read: "Seeking the virtuous and listening, choosing the good and making it, the way of governing the government, can be said, two hours!"
This is the policy, and the question is actually how to govern Shu now, which is a great test of vision, knowledge, and learning, of course, writing is also very important.
Everyone didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly thought about it one by one, and some people began to write on scratch paper.
After a moment of silence, Wang Hongyi sat down and walked slowly in Dianfeng, only Yu Liangbo followed behind him.
It had been instructed in advance that there was no need to salute during the chalk test, and these people knew it, so Wang Hongyi was able to walk behind a person, his eyes swept over the papers, and he paced silently.
Yu Liangbo thought that the lord was watching the chalk test, but in fact, Wang Hongyi was watching his natal luck.
It can be recommended among millions of people, in fact, the luck is good, except for a few natal qi is white, most of them are light red.
Wang Hongyi stopped, a young man who was struggling to write in front of him, Wang Hongyi's eyes swept over, first paying attention to the golden natal qi on his top, and then paying attention to his place of origin and name one - Lu Jiao.
Wang Hongyi stayed for only a moment, and then started again.
After a few more steps, another golden natal qi appeared. Jiang Mingxin.
After turning around, Cui Ziya and Zhong Liang fell into their eyes.
After a while, Wang Hongyi focused his gaze on one person, this person was also young, about twenty-five years old, looking at this person, Wang Hongyi stared. Pale cyan!
Among the talents who paid tribute this time, there was actually a talented person who could be a prime minister!
looked at it, and saw life, it was Tan Yue.
This person's eyes were focused on the pen and paper, and his temperament was calm, Wang Hongyi didn't want to disturb the writing, so he just glanced at it, and didn't take much time than before, and left.
This crucian test takes two hours, Wang Hongyi naturally will not wait, and the paper comes out, and the paper will be read by Lisi and Yu Liangbo together, and according to the instructions, it will be divided into three classes.
Ten in the first class, thirty in the second class, and the rest in the third class.
Although it is not a palace test in name, in fact, it is, this row will have a basis for rewarding in the future.
Wang Hongyi went back and met again.
The patriarchs of several major clans, led by Song Han, came in and saluted.
"Get up, this time it's a discussion. Wang Hongyi said directly: "You all know everything, do you have any ideas?"
Shu is rich in mineral deposits, even in this era, has been distributed a considerable scale of mining areas, there are coal, iron, lead, copper, the most important thing is that there is quite a mature and convenient river transportation in Shu.
Of course, the mining areas in these areas are shallow and easy to mine, and the technical content is not high, so it can be easily used, and they are also the hardest hit areas by accidents.
However, accidents have no room for consideration in this era, especially at this time.
And for the modern earth, these minerals are nothing, but in ancient times, the mineral deposits on this surface were more than enough to meet today's needs.
At this time, everyone kowtowed together: "The villain has been favored by the Duke of the country, and it is a great benefit, dare not obey his fate?"
"Well, in this case, each of your families will be granted a ten-year concession for a mineral, and the workers need not worry, they have their own slaves. Wang Hongyi said.
Ding Huchen and the Eight Banners plan went smoothly, "There are five flags now, how can these five flags recognize Wang Hongyi's tricks?"
It is said that there is not much time, these black and thin mountain people eat exquisite fish and meat, sleep in wide beds, live in large houses, and wear exquisite wide robes, all as if in a dream.
Stimulated by this, these five banners are desperately strangling their compatriots in exchange for a large number of rewards and fields, and the speed of encirclement and suppression makes Wang Hongyi stunned, and he understands more and more the power of the eight banners.
Since the Eight Banners were so useful, and considering the use of slave labor, Wang Hongyi changed his policy slightly, no longer requiring all the men above the wheel to be killed, but rewarding them by their numbers.
There have been tens of thousands of Shanxun captives who have been sent to the camp of the exiles, which is said to be the camp of the exiles, but in fact it is a slave camp.
And among the five banners, some wounded warriors were sent to be the leaders, and these leaders of the five banners, who were familiar with the mountain tribes, controlled them effectively, and were sealed as officials who were not in the stream, everyone rejoiced, and waved whips to urge the slaves to work from time to time.
Ore development itself is a chore, now the people of Shuzhong are not even enough to reclaim the land, who has to work, now this group of people immediately fill the gap, and multiple projects can be developed.
It doesn't matter if there are more people, you can send slaves to build roads, bridges, and water conservancy, but in order to stimulate slaves to work better, there is still a reward.
Slaves who work hard can become squad leaders, those who work hard to learn Chinese can also be pardoned in advance, and after five years, slaves who can speak Chinese will become slaves of lighter projects, such as textiles, and are allowed to have a house and a family.
Future generations have the possibility of becoming civilians.
As for those who resist to the end, it's very simple, just work in the coal mine to death!
"You will receive this reward, and you will also do your best for the lonely, and the goods of these workshops will be traded throughout the day, and you must carefully contact the right people to trade, so as to meet the suitability. ,
Huge industry and wealth can naturally influence others, on the earth, the Manchu Qing took advantage of the profits of trade, during the war, developed the ten imperial merchants as the chalk table of the business network.
These business networks not only smuggled weapons and grain and grass, but also developed a large number of downlines and weaved a huge network of relationships.
Although it is only a benefit-sharing partnership, no one will have trouble with money, and most of the time there is no need to risk the danger to rebel, just a proper leak of information.
When these words and phrases are gathered, they can be reported to the Manchus later, and every move can be reported to the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
When the soldiers came to the city, these people would be more courageous to become internal responses.
Wang Hongyi is quite clear about this situation, and Wang Hongyi's principle is to "master the skills of the master to control the country".
I remember that someone in my previous life was surprised: "The chalk himself did this, and you did the same, what is the difference between you and the chalk himself?"
Wang Hongyi once asked very meanly: "When the chalk himself eats, you eat? When the chalk himself dresses, you run naked? The chalk himself can speak, so you should be dumb? The chalk himself is a human being, so you will isolate yourself from mankind? If the chalk himself proposes a common circle in East Asia, you want the chalk country to isolate itself from Southeast Asia? If you can't even distinguish between my hero and his enemy, and the enemy hero and my enemy, there is no need to say it. ”
This is far away, Wang Hongyi ordered to go down" These people are all responding: "No!"
Then it was a detailed explanation, and after an hour, it was almost retreated, and at this time, the original test paper and the list were presented by Yu Liangbo in front of Wang Hongyi.
Wang Hongyi directly found the articles of Lu Jiao, Jiang Mingxin, Cui Ziya, Zhong Liang, and Tan Yue, took a look, and found that most of them were in the second issue.
The other arrangements were not changed, and the command said: "Regardless of the rank, all of them are used by the rank of the officials, and the top ten will enter the Secret Literature Pavilion!
Wang Hongyi said, his eyebrows spread, and his deep eyes were sparkling.
Yu Liangbo glanced at Wang Hongyi carefully, his heart trembled, and responded: "Yes!"
Wang Hongyi paced leisurely for a long time, nodded and said, "That's it!"
With a wave of his hand, Yu Liangbo saluted again and withdrew.
When Wang Hongyi got up to look, the snow became heavier and heavier, and the snow was strolling in the corridor, outside the Hanyu Bridge Fence!
Wang Hongyi walked slowly, very satisfied, "I didn't speak for a while."
The value of the lord is like this, the title of the gold list of the ten-year cold window, the eight houses of the Jianya Kaifu, and the glory of the ancestors of the wife and son, in the face of this, they have become insignificant. (To be continued)
