Chapter 302: Digging a hole to bury yourself
Before anyone else could ask, Gu Nanxi laid out her plans for several other towns under the scorching gazes of everyone.
“Ruxuan Town vigorously develops the wool and cashmere industry and strives to become the wool products center of the entire Zhou Dynasty within five years.”
“Wuchuan Town is positioned as a military industrial center. After Pu Chang successfully improves After firearms, you are our largest weapons supplier!”
Wuchuan Town is the southernmost town in Yunzhou. It is close to the Central Plains and is convenient for obtaining raw materials. In case of an outbreak with the Tatars, there are several ahead of them! The town is strong enough to ensure the safety of the military industry.
"As for Huaihuang Town and Yuyi Town, I will go there in person in the spring of next year. If the idea can be realized, we in Yunzhou can take another step forward!"
Gu Nanxi was stunned. Talk about plans, look forward to the future, and tell everyone that they are full of expectations for the next five years!
It wasn’t until they walked out and were blown by the cold wind of early winter that the enthusiastic people came to their senses and realized that the governor had just fed everyone a big piece of cake!
“We didn’t get a penny, we didn’t have any personnel, and we were ordered around for the next five years!” Wang Buxi smiled bitterly.
I have always deceived others, but I didn’t expect that one day I would also be fed a big pie!
The lieutenant general said nothing. The one who gets the biggest benefit now is Fuming Town!
The air in the town seemed to be filled with the smell of mutton.
Qin Bohuai was impatient. He planned to send people to guard Pu Chang so that he would not be lazy and successfully develop it as soon as possible.
Yan Tongchu whispered: "It's not like painting a pie. I heard that your Excellency once told the Kyoto inspection team that gold and silver mountains are not as good as these green waters and green mountains. Think about it, these 10,000 acres of saline-alkali land in Woye Town will one day be The rice smells fragrant.”
Wang Buxi didn’t dare to have such a sweet dream, but he still hoped that it was true.
After the anxiety in his heart finally disappeared, Wang Buxi analyzed the five-year plan.
Wang Buxi's steps gradually slowed down, and the bright moonlight shone on him, making him look particularly cold and dusty.
“What bad idea are you having again, so lost in thought?” Qin Bohuai patted Wang Buxi on the shoulder.
Wang Buxi glanced at Qin Bohuai inexplicably, until he was horrified and had goosebumps all over his body, and then he said leisurely.
"Looking at our ten-year friendship, if the following words come out of my mouth and enter your ears, if they reach other people's ears, I will never recognize them."
"Don't worry, that's it. Can I still be such a talker?"
The other five heads also came over.
Wang Buxi: "Do you still remember that Song Lang once said that everyone is a family member, and the family in the eyes of adults is not only Yunzhou?"
Qin Bohuai's expression instantly He became embarrassed, his eyes wandered, and he said nonchalantly: "Ah, let's talk about this What's the matter? Isn't this something that needs to be considered after many years? Sir, how many years did it take?”
Qin Bohuai picked his nails unconsciously: "You can't ask us to make a decision now, right? How long have we known each other?"
"Why not?" Wang Buxi's eyes lit up, "The Governor is organizing this event City, other small tribes on the grassland do not Do you have to go to our Zhou Dynasty? Not only that, as the market becomes more and more attractive, the caravans who go deep into the grassland will no longer trade with the Tatars."
After all, it is easier to make more money. With so much money, who would be willing to risk their lives to go to the grassland?
“Without enough external supplies, the Tatars’ strength will be weakened.”
Yan Tongchu objected: “But this will only further stimulate them to go south!”
Wang Buxi raised the corners of his lips, half-smiling: "Isn't this exactly what the governor wants? If they stay huddled in the grassland, once we go deeper, we will not only have to bear the pressure from the court, but also face lengthy logistics supplies." Yan Tongchu's face turned pale for a moment. He didn't really want to fight.
Wang Buxi consoled him: "What are you afraid of? Hasn't the general already made all the plans? If you are really worried, you might as well urge Qin Bohuai to make firearms as soon as possible and call them All the border soldiers use it."
Yan Tongchu smiled: "It is everyone's responsibility to resist foreign enemies. I am not afraid."< br>
Wang Buxi rolled his eyes and refused to give Yan Tong the chance to pretend to be a coward, and said: "Think about it, when the time comes, Yunzhou will own the entire prairie and have thousands of acres of fertile land to be self-sufficient. There are also firearms and tens of thousands of elite soldiers, as well as countless caravans providing a steady stream of funds... Are we afraid that we will have many more brothers? "
"Stop talking!" Yan Tongchu panicked. Can this be said in public? !
Wang Buxi flicked his sleeves, put his hands behind his back, and said in a calm tone: "If I don't tell you, wouldn't the governor do this? Guess what Song Zhizhou will do when he returns to the capital?"
Wang Buxi suddenly turned around, looked at the deputy general, and said meaningfully: " People don't fall into the same pit twice. I think if that day comes, Gu Jiajun will stand firmly behind you. This is why you built the market outside Fuming Town. The reason! ”
The geographical location and so on, those are all superficial reasons.
The most important thing is that Gu Jiajun is the most loyal supporter of the governor!
So the first person to take the lead in eating meat was Gu Jiajun!
Wang Buxi did not feel angry because he was forced to make a choice. On the contrary, he was very happy.
The general is incompetent and the three armies are exhausted.
A general with ambition, ability, and means is truly someone worth following!
After Yan Tongchu said goodbye to everyone, he was dejected and stayed up all night.
Before dawn, he set out on his way back to Huaishuo Town.
"Master Yan is back?" The townspeople who went out to dig mud from the city greeted Yan Tongchu enthusiastically.
"Why did you get up so early?" Yan Tongchu glanced at the sky and asked in surprise.
Especially Yan Tongchu noticed that these people seemed to be a little different from before. The smiles on their faces were deeper and their eyes were brighter.
The leading young man patted the pole on his shoulder and grinned: "The Panhuokang team is too busy, and the apprentices who followed the Geng family's master have all left. Now in the town, anyone who has a head and face, Everyone wants to sit on the fire bed. There is almost a hole in the yellow mud mountain.”
A wealthy family has a courtyard with at least seven or eight rooms, but they can't have four or five fire-beds?
Especially when hosting a banquet, other people's houses are as warm as spring, but when it's your own house's turn, the guests are shivering with cold.
Is this possible? !
Those who are smart want to take advantage of this opportunity to build a few more hot pots. When there are more and more Hu merchants, renting out these houses will also be an income.
Yan Tongchu suddenly understood something and asked: "Do you think your life is easy now?"
The young man was very honest: "It's still hard, but I have a goal in my heart!"
Yan Tongchu smiled as if he had thought better of it.
Yes, if you follow the governor, you will be successful! She has no control over how big her family wants to be, but she and Huaishuo Town want to be part of her family.
