Chapter 269 Planning

"Zhao Xianggong has made a fortune," Zhao Kuangyi said enviously. Not to mention Zhao Pu's actual income, just these two bribes are enough to make Zhao Pu have a happy New Year. Thinking about himself, Zhao Kuangyi feels miserable.

If I had no idea that I had a flash of inspiration and could not get some dividends from Hezhou, I would not be able to bear it this year.

Then he murmured, "It's not going to fall."

Song Jiu thought that Song Chu was not a scholar or a literati in the early days, but actually thought it was wrong and killed many officials, some of whom were unjustly killed, some were killed on charges of rebellion or indirect treason, and some were victims of various competitions, such as Yao Shu, but the most killed were corrupt officials.

In the second year of Jianlong, Li Yao, Shanghe County, was stolen and abandoned the market, and his superior Shen Wenwei was dismissed as a civilian. Guo Yan, the chief clerk of Yongji County, took stolen and abandoned the market. In the third year, Xue Xun was in charge of Changying warehouses, and was stolen and was dismissed from the market. Several warehouse officials were abandoned.

In the third year of Gande, Wang Zang, Xi County, was killed by stolen people and abandoned the market. Cheng Dejun sent the pseudo-Shu Military Academy, and accepted bribes on the road and was beheaded. In the fourth year, Guo Yan, the governor of Guanglu Shaoqing, was corrupt and abandoned the market.

In the third year of Kaibao, Shi Yanzuo, the general of the right-leading guard, sat in Guangjicang and his officials as traitors.

The officials who abandoned the market and beheaded were mostly greedy for a few thousand pieces, and the few hundred pieces were few. They were far less than the small half bottle of golden melon seeds in Zhao Pu's family.

However, Zhao Kuangyi then laughed at himself. How can he compare? Lu Yuqing can kill the general who cut off the breasts of a civilian woman, but can he kill Wang Quanbin, who has tens of thousands of surrendered soldiers? Yin Xun killed more than ten captains without permission. Li Tao, Minister of War, impeached him. He was only loyal and brave, and was demoted to Xuzhou coaching envoy, not to mention that precious little uncle.

Thinking of this, Zhao Kuangyi continued to pretend to be cowardly.

But Zhao Kuangyin was very dissatisfied and led to heavy punishment. Meng Chang surrendered to the Song Dynasty and brought hundreds of guards, all of which were given to Chuanban Dianzhi. The reward was even thicker than that of Yumazhi. This time, the Southern Han Dynasty was destroyed, so he performed the winter solstice suburban ceremony. With Yumazhi as his entourage and his personal bodyguard, Zhao Kuangyin gave each of them five thousand coins, not as much as Chuanban Dianzhi. Nearly a hundred palaces were so generous that they didn't know the world was high and the earth was unconvinced. He formed a team to fight and heard the drums and confess their feelings. Your Majesty, you are unfair. Zhao Kuangyin was furious and beheaded his forty of his most riots. The rest of his subordinates were subordinate to Xuzhou and his squad was abolished. He also wanted to ask Li Chengjin, the minister who had worked with Li Cunxu at the palace banquet: "Why did Emperor Zhuangzong of Tang Dynasty defend the Central Plains with his heroic martial arts? Why did he enjoy the country soon?"

Li Chengjin understood and replied: "Zhuang Zong likes to hunt in fields and tolerate soldiers. Whenever he goes out, the guards of the forbidden soldiers will stop their horses and say, "I am cold and I hope Your Majesty will save you." Emperor Zhuang Zong of Tang gave him whatever he wants. If he does not implement his authority and rewards are not in good condition, how can the country not be destroyed!"

This sentence should be recorded and placed next to Xuande Gate. It is for the scholars and officials after the Song Dynasty to see it.

Zhao Kuangyin sighed: "Twenty years of Jiahe War, I have won the world, but I cannot use military laws to restrain these people. Even if I seek in vain, I am here to face the emperor. I am really a joke. Now I raise my soldiers and I am not reluctant to give them a reward. If I violate my law, I will only have a sword."

Just talk about soldiers.

But Zhao Pu brought up this topic after receiving the gift. Even Zhao Kuangyi could not guess whether he was intentional or unintentional.

This will be the most critical year of the Song Dynasty. Zhao Kuangyin repeatedly beat him. If Zhao Pu restrained him a little, maybe the Song Dynasty would have another direction. But it is hard to say that it would be better. Zhao Dezhao was basically out of the way. Zhao Defang grew up in the inner palace and Zhao Kuangyin was not dead. Maybe the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun could accept it, but if you want to occupy and govern it, you can directly create a tight line of defense in the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun. Zhao Kuangyin is also a twilight old man. No one knows whether Zhao Defang can defend this foundation and whether the Song Dynasty can become better...

Zhao Kuangyi continued to pretend to be dead, but he almost disappeared in the past few years.

Song Jiu wrote a memorial before New Year's Day.

The Song Dynasty sent many officials to replace the pseudo-officials of the Southern Han Dynasty for many reasons. Deng Cunzhong's rebellion made Zhao Kuangyin uneasy. Seeing Liu Yu's various things, Zhao Kuangyin also had serious doubts about the virtue of the Southern Han officials, and there was also the eunuch official.

More than 70% of the magistrates of the Southern Han Dynasty were eunuchs, and only after Liu Yu was killed by JJ, and more than 40% of the magistrates were eunuchs. After all, it has been seen that it is better to be a normal person or a eunuch to be an official?

Gong Chengshu said that if he cut off JJ, he would be more loyal than his family's concern. In fact, it was just right. If he had less of this thing, he would be more greedy. Some had an abnormal mentality and tried every means to harm the people. There were also good ones. Although a very small number of eunuchs and officials were less likely to be good officials, they were still good officials, and they were not as good as normal people.

With the crackdown on states and counties, a large number of Song Dynasty officials came to squeeze out the quota, and Song Jiu appointed more than a dozen talents who were proficient in water officials to serve as officials, and they gradually eliminated them. The remaining ones may not be good officials, but they cannot be considered bad officials.

It is normal for the imperial court to send officials over, and it is necessary to strengthen control over this area.

In fact, these officials came over, but they were inconvenient. The officials in the South Han Dynasty took whatever they wanted and used what they wanted. They had a strong deterrent force, forcing them to find ways to do it well. However, the officials of the court were not good. Even if there were bad officials, Pan Mei could only report that they could not easily remove or kill and dismiss him.

This leads to a new comparison. After the elimination of officials from the Southern Han Dynasty and officials of the Song Dynasty, there are some people in Huizhou. In the eastern part of Guangnan, one, two, three, and four, and Shaozhou is not as large as Chaozhou, but its geographical location is very important. Huizhou also has a large population, which is relatively weaker. It has a mountainous area. The population is benefiting from the glory of Guangzhou, with a developed business and can support more people. In the western part of Guangnan, there are one, two, and three, and the west of Guangnan.

After the cut, there were four counties with nearly 30,000 households. Although there were many mountainous areas, they produced aromatic aromas and rattan boxes, as well as tin fields, iron fields and salt fields. This was an advantage. The biggest flaw was that Pan Mei killed many middle-aged people.

The number of officials in the court was strictly followed, from the prefecture to the county to the supervision, there were 35 officials in total. The court sent seven officials, and the rest were all officials in the Southern Han Dynasty. However, after comparison, the Song officials were indeed not as good as the Han officials who were eliminated. This was still in the better situation, otherwise it would be worse.

Fortunately, the overall good official style has gradually formed, and Lingnan has made arrangements for more than half a year. Various plans have been built on a large framework. Pan Mei has a high reputation and sets an example. No official dares to do too much.

If the court dropped a large number of officials to the south at the beginning, it would be awful.

Officials are very important, don’t talk about the entire Lingnan. Even in Huizhou, Song Jiu still handed over the affairs to his subordinates. Otherwise, he would not be able to do it alone.

Lingnan is getting better.

After countless benevolent policies have been implemented over the past year, the people have finally entered a happy period of rest and rest.

Cotton has never been satisfied in the north. Less than 30% of the lint, or even a little more than 20%. The knowledge obtained by Song Jiu with this history, including the knowledge planted before the liberation of the past life, which was promoted from Lingnan, was a coarse lint cotton that was promoted from Lingnan. In the south, cotton seeds were introduced from Hainan. After scientific planting, how many of them were finally answered. The high-yield acre of land reached 69 Song jin. More than 80 jin of lint, with an average of 50 Song jin, and the proportion of lint was nearly 35%. Song Jiu observed carefully that cotton was longer in Guangnan, so the yield of lint increased significantly. Because there was still not much cotton, the price is still very expensive now, and its income is almost equivalent to twenty acres of rice fields.

More people will grow cotton next year.

Next is sugarcane, which is mainly used as sugar, but it is not. This is the crop that Song Jiu values, not cotton.

It will continue to expand next year, and the contracting time will be longer, including tea forests, mulberry and hemp. It will be used to demonstrate and promote it to the people. All contracted farms are handed over to the people and funds will be withdrawn.

Then there are sea ships. The Maritime Bureau uses humanitarian joint sea trip system to encourage people to go to sea in disguise. They are not afraid of their families being destroyed, and the profits at sea are higher than those on land. In addition, the emergence of compass and the emergence of cabins has further reduced the risks at sea. Policies are also encouraging them to go to sea in disguise. Manufacture ships are gradually starting to build ships, but the distance is still not far, and there are not even merchants going to Tianzhu. The main thing is to be in the South China Sea and continue to trade with the countries in the South China Sea. But this is a good omen.

Finally, roads and water conservancy are also important. Yongzhou rebelled and pacified, the leaders killed them, surrendered soldiers were escorted to build roads, and Leizhou Peninsula was also a forbidden area. Taking advantage of this opportunity to build roads, the Song army could easily send them to each village at any time, so the barbarians would not be unruly. At least half of the Leizhou Peninsula could carry out real governance. But it was still difficult. The western and southern parts of Yongzhou were still a headache.

Water conservancy has not been repaired too much due to financial reasons.

This will be next year, and Guangnan will be in better situation next year. With more money and silk in hand, more water conservancy and roads can be built, at least one by one in each state. It will also allow the people in other regions to imitate the model, and successor officials can also draw some money and silk to imitate it and manage it in exchange for political achievements.

Therefore, this memorial was created.

First, the court was allowed to send some minor officials and craftsmen from the steel supervision department. There are many pit mines in Lingnan, including gold, silver, copper, lead and tin, but there are few iron pits. If used, they can barely be self-sufficient. Iron uses many uses, not only weapons, but also agriculture and construction, especially agricultural tools. The livestock situation is relatively good. Many barbarian areas have slash-and-burn farming, and some cattle and horses are raised to eat as food. The price is not as expensive as the Central Plains. If you can get oxen through some exchange forms, you will lack related agricultural tools.

The second is cement.

There are several necessary conditions for these two kinds of workshops. They need convenient water transportation, so that the cost of ore transportation will decrease. There must be water trucks to be used as power in places with turbulent water flow. These two can be realized in many areas of Lingnan. There is no need to implement them all. Guangchao Shuangzhou has three small steel supervisors and four small cement supervisors to meet most of the needs of Guangnan, and the imperial court does not need to spare the cost of transporting them to the south.

Several people in Guangnan thought that the movement was small. If it weren't for the financial pressure, they would have wanted to be bigger so that Lingnan would get rid of its transformation as soon as possible and leave this stuffy place. But compared with other trajectories, the movement was too big. It was a reasonable requirement. The Secretariat dared not make things difficult for it, nor could it make things difficult for it. It was the national government and the memorial must be submitted to Zhao Kuangyin, so it approved.

At this point, there were more than 400 students, old farmers and craftsmen from both public and private aspects transferred to Lingnan, and it was not over yet. After New Year's Day, nearly 100 students and more than 200 farmers who were good at planting and breeding in various aspects were sent to Lingnan one after another.

All are paid and very thick. Although the students delayed their studies, they could also add points. The court will reuse these students in the future. After all, their trip to the south this time is equivalent to a good survey.

After the New Year, Guangnan continues to develop in great strides.

There are many shortcomings, small population, tight money, a lot of births, and backward in all aspects of culture, transportation and farming technology. However, there are many advantages. After the tyranny of Chengnan Han, the people are easily satisfied. Seeing the opportunity coming, they are very hardworking. Just like some areas promote surround fields and dam fields. Without the instructions of officials, the people came spontaneously with tools. Song Jiu has some advanced theories. Pan Mei and other officials were inspired by Song Jiu in Hunan, and they have been in charge of governance for several years, and have developed a set of practical experience.

These advantages make up for their shortcomings.

What it finally became is still unseen this year.

Several people stayed in the south, and also watched the political situation in the court, including the Southern Tang and Nan Han took it down, and then the Southern Tang Dynasty was in the Southern Tang Dynasty. Li Congshan came to pay tribute, and Zhao Kuangyin defeated him, so you don’t have to go back. Sooner or later, your brother will be with you.

Li Yu was shocked. The imperial edict was originally called the Imperial, but now it was changed to the sect. The subordinates of the Secretariat were the left and right inner-shis offices, the Secretariat was changed to the Secretariat, and the other official titles were changed together. The palaces were all removed from royal decorations such as pilos. Then, annual tribute was added, the army was expanded, and weapons and armor were repaired. It was a strategy for war defense.

This was originally a life in a crisis.

No matter how the Southern Tang Dynasty prepared them, they were not the Southern Song Dynasty that later became the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but only had the later parts of Jiangxi, Anhui and southern Jiangsu. The western part of Fujian was limited in area, but there was still vitality, that was the north.

Unlike the Western Jin Dynasty, which had no harm to the north. Or the Sui Dynasty eliminated the harm to the north and then attacked the south, the Song Dynasty also had a huge enemy, Khitan and Tian Qinzuo, who fought bloody and only protected himself. It was not the real defeat of 3,000 or repelled the Khitan army. If Li Yu was diligent and loved the people, valued talents, and was low-key to the Song Dynasty, the entire Southern Tang army would become a mourning soldier. Even if the Song Dynasty won the Southern Tang Dynasty, it would have won a miserable victory. However, the north would not care about it? Maybe he could protect himself by robbing the river.

Moreover, there were many loyal ministers and martyrs in the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Pan Mei attacked the south and the Khitan invaded continuously. Relatively speaking, the Jianghuai was relatively empty. Lin Renzhao, a general of the Southern Tang Dynasty, ran to say, Your Majesty, the Song Dynasty destroyed the Later Shu, and then destroyed the Southern Han Dynasty, and traveled thousands of miles, even if they were tired, they would be exhausted. The Jianghuai was empty, and I would give me tens of thousands of troops, and I would definitely take back the Jianghuai for Your Majesty.

Not necessarily, but if he really did do this, the vitality that Jianghuai finally recovered would be greatly damaged, and it might also delay the demise of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Li Yu did not agree. Lin Renzhao also said, if Your Majesty is worried, when I raise an army, you claim that you are leading troops to rebel. If the matter is successful, it is beneficial to Your Majesty and the country. If you don’t kill my entire clan, you will show that you have no different intentions to the Song Dynasty, and the Song Dynasty will not blame you.

Li Yu still did not agree.

Lin Renzhao left, and Lu Jiang came again. He said, our country cannot forget Wu and Yue. Once the Song Dynasty comes to attack Wu and Yue, we will be an accomplice. It is better for us to start annihilation of them first.

Li Yu replied, Wu and Yue are different from before, and are also vassals of the great northern powers. How can we use troops to fight them?

Lu Jiang replied, "It's not difficult. As long as Your Majesty allows me, I will immediately send false news, saying that the two states of Xuanshe are rebelling, and you announce that you will go to Wuyue for help. Xuanzhou is rich, and Wuyue will definitely be greedy for the sake of advantage and transfer the army. Then Your Majesty sends troops to cut off their retreat. I will send a surprise attack on Hangzhou and destroy Wuyue in one battle.

It may not be successful, but Li Yu did not discuss it for a while and refused directly.

No one took Lu Jiang seriously. The key is Lin Renzhao. He was a brave general who scared Zhang Yongde away with thousands of people. Jiangnan called him the tiger son and was a tiger. The so-called tiger general was insignificant to Zhao Kuangyin. His paper was not as good as that of the Southern Tang Dynasty. However, in terms of military generals, there were not too many military generals of Lin Renzhao. What Zhao Kuangyin hated was that he encouraged Li Yu to send troops to Jianghuai. How much thought did the court have been spent in order to let Jianghuai rest? Moreover, these pro-war factions have the right to speak, which will inevitably have an adverse impact on the future recovery of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, after the scout sent back the news, Zhao Kuangyin sent a secret spy to sneak into Jiangnan, observe Lin Renzhao, and painted a portrait of Lin Renzhao and brought it back to the capital.

Li Congshan came to envoy, and Zhao Kuangyin hung the portrait in another hall in the palace, invited Li Congshan to visit the palace, and accompanied Li Congshan to wander around the palace.

If Li Congshan was smart enough, he would see a terrible truth. Hezhou was so luxurious and prosperous, but the Song Dynasty palace was so simple. Even the construction cost of 120 large stores in Hezhou could cause earth-shaking changes in the palace. What does this mean?

Unfortunately, he didn't see it. Even though he had been to Hezhou for fun, he also came to the palace and asked Zhao Kuangyin to take it to this other hall without any intention. Zhao Kuangyin pointed to the portrait and said, "Who is this?"

Li Congshan said: "It seems to be Lin Renzhao, Jiangnan."

Zhao Kuangyin murmured unintentionally: "This person wants to surrender to our court and send someone to send this portrait as a token."

He pointed to an empty house outside the palace wall and said, "I will give that house to Lin Renzhao."

Li Congshan immediately sent his subordinates to secretly pass the words back to Jinling. Li Yu believed it was true. I didn't agree with this old boy, so he planned to rebel against me, so he poisoned Lin Renzhao to death with poisoned wine.

If it is not changed, more than a hundred years later, Li Yu likes poetry, songs, music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is content with pleasure. His habit of liking Taoism and teaching will be passed on to Zhao Ji, and his habit of killing heroes will be passed on to Zhao Gou...

Pan Mei and his friends were disappointed after hearing this.

It has nothing to do with Lin Renzhao. Can Pan Yin and the other two take Lin Renzhao seriously? What they are worried about is that they don’t know that day they will go back. In the past, the Song Dynasty had to find excuses to attack the country, so the king’s army came to attack. Hunan borrowed troops, and Bashu joined forces with the Northern Han to invade the Song Dynasty first. The Southern Han has always been an enemy of the Song Dynasty and rescued the people in the area. Li Yu has always been polite, including when he attacked Hunan, and he also sent envoys to bring a large amount of supplies to reward the king’s army. Now he has surrendered himself to the national rank and increased the annual tribute. How to fight?

The two have been south for a long time, for more than seven years.

Song Jiu was also anxious. There were no big problems in Hezhou, but many small problems arose. First, the mirror, and the jade apple handed over the acid technology, which does not represent the entire glass technology. For example, strengthened glass, it is still under research. It spends a lot of money, but the progress is not too obvious. This is the inevitable result. With the clumsy R&D method of the present, every bit of progress costs huge money and effort. There are also mirrors that are studying silver-plated mirrors in the laboratory.

It is made of products, and it doesn't matter if it is not made. There can be many additional chemical substances, and cement is also involved in the purification of various ores, chemical production, industrial production and machinery. Song Jiu attaches great importance to this.

The foundation is poor, but under the leadership of Song Jiu, he can avoid many detours.

The technology confidentiality of the glass workshop is mainly to treat researchers well, including craftsmen and students. In addition, the assembly line production is only possible, including mirrors. The same is true for other glass products. The process is getting finer and more complex, including blowing, forging, processing.

Song Jiu got three diamonds from Guangzhou again. The price was very cheap, only dozens of exquisite silk. Jade apple handed over the acid technology, Hebei studied it and asked for a diamond to make a glass knife. That's fine. Hebei can make low-end glass and high-end glass in Henan. However, within half a year after the start of construction, Hebei obtained the mirror technology and poached four masters. He forced them to poach.

Then there is the stock stocks. After several expansions of Hezhou stocks, the shareholders increased, reaching more than 500 Yanei. Some Yanei and Hebei held cross-holdings, but not many. However, since Yuping handed over the acid technology last year, Hebei has now become half of the stocks cross-holdings. Some people even forced the people to sell the stocks they had.

If this continues, at most one or two years, the Hezhou after he returns will definitely not be the Hezhou before.

Therefore, Song Jiu was also anxious.

Yuping said it in the letter in a plain way, but Song Jiu still saw her anxiety and worries from her letter.
