Chapter 5053 The Demon King of the World
Guo Guangjing responded: "What he said is that they were raised by his parents. In order to protect the country, they had to stay away from their homes. They could not be filial to their parents, nor could they be filial to their wives and children. It’s okay to be with you for a short time, but after a long time, I’m afraid I’ll have the intention to return home, and the morale of the army is unstable."
But a thought turned in my mind. It’s not a secret that Cheng Yaojin’s eagerness to return to Beijing. Now the situation in Beijing is turbulent, and many people have lost their authority. The ministers of Zhenguan are gradually withering. If they don’t go back, they will be thrown into the corner and eat ashes.
But why did you go to the governor's mansion to inform me specifically?
I and Cheng Yaojin don't have this friendship, so I must have another intention...
"Who isn't it?" Cheng Yaojin sighed, looking embarrassed: "But every sentence that the governor said is reasonable. The land of Hexi seems calm, but in fact there are many hidden dangers. The remnants of An's family are hidden. There will inevitably be opportunities to destroy everywhere. At present, Liangzhou not only has a large number of families invested in the reclaiming wasteland and planting cotton, but also had to bear the important task of supporting the food, fodder and weapons of the Lunqinling. If there is any mistake, the consequences will be unimaginable... On the one hand, soldiers and generals are in charge of the school. My hometown is like an arrow. On the one hand, the safety of Liangzhou is not optimistic and dangerous. I am also undecided and tideful. So today I am taking the liberty to come to the door just to ask the governor to give me some ideas."
Guo Guangjing stroked it Beard, stop talking.
Let me make an idea?
Can I take your idea?
Why should I give you an idea?
A little thoughtful, not sure about Cheng Yaojin's intention, Guo Guangjing tentatively said: "Our soldiers are the backbone of the empire. Filial piety to parents and raising children is naturally important, but more importantly, national interests are supreme. Just as Duke Lu, the State Council, said In other words, the current rivers are surging and hidden dangers are numerous. It is better to have an elite guard like the Left Wu Guard to guard and guard it properly."
No mentioning that another stationed in Fanhe, the previous one was The right guard of the An clan commander.
Cheng Yaojin's intentions were pointed out: "But the soldiers and generals' feelings cannot be ignored."
Guo Guangjing had a little thought: "Lu Guogong believes that what should be done should be done." Take care of the feelings of the soldiers of the Zuo Wuwei general? ”
Cheng Yaojin took a sip of tea and said loudly: "Working in a war is just a reduction of taxes and rewards, but after all, there are very few people who are promoted. There are only a few officers in the tens of thousands of troops? Therefore, for ordinary soldiers , affordability is the most important thing."
After a pause, seeing Guo Guangjing's smile, he continued: "There is the fire of reclaiming wasteland around Liangzhou, and cotton planting is everywhere. I think if the soldiers have that An industry may be able to guard Liangzhou with peace of mind and treat Liangzhou as a hometown. If anyone wants to destroy it, he will fight back in anger! "
Guo Guangjing understood that this guy saw a family member Hexi has invested so much and planted so much cotton, so he felt jealous and wanted to get a share of it.
Thinking about it, he said generously: "Although Liangzhou is rich and has a large population, it is not as good as the Central Plains city. The surrounding mountains are towering and deserts are continuous, and there are still a lot of wasteland. Duke Lu can launch a move The soldiers under my command went to reclaim. As long as they were reclaimed, I would ask the chief clerk of the Liangzhou Governor's Office to record all these lands under the name of the Zuo Wuwei to serve as military reclamation. What does Duke Lu agree with? "
The military reclamation is now viewed For the military industry, the military is self-sufficient and exempts all harsh and miscellaneous taxes. This is already a great policy preferential treatment.
After all, whether it is mountains, deserts, or Gobi, all land is nominally owned by the Liangzhou Governor's Office. Once tens of thousands of troops in the Zuowu Guard are reclaimed, how can it be blocked by thousands of acres? At least tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of acres.
So much land is included in the military reclamation, the Liangzhou Governor's Office has to bear certain political risks...
However, Cheng Yaojin seems to be very loyal and respectful of rules and unwilling to do so. Guo Guangjing took risks for him: "How can this be done? I just want to buy some industries to the heart of the Ministry of Security. I must not let Guo Guo break the rules, otherwise I will not be able to bear it."
Guo Guangjing didn't understand. Yes, you have to buy an industry yourself, so I will give you preferential policies to buy an industry. Why isn’t it okay?
Just go straight to the point: "What exactly does Duke Lu want to do? Please speak out without any worries."
Cheng Yaojin's map was revealed: "Isn't this the hundreds of thousands of acres of wasteland that have been reclaimed? It is all the efforts of the soldiers of our Left Wu Guard and Right Xiao Guard. As I said, I will draw a piece of land for us. Convenient and easy to deal with."
Guo Guangjing: "..."
He stared at Cheng Yaojin with wide eyes, as if he was sure that this guy was not drunk and nonsense.
The manpower for reclaiming wasteland is indeed the soldiers of the left Wu Guard and the right Xiao Guard, but the family members paid the money!
Because of Fang Junzhi's suggestion, aristocratic families flocked to all over the country, whether they were sincere or false, they would put in real money and silver, reclaim wasteland, hire mercenaries, supply food, buy cotton seedlings, and build canals... ...All of them have invested huge amounts of money.
Now, in one word, you should take away a piece of land that has been cultivated and cotton seedlings have grown vigorously?
You are indeed convenient and trouble-free, but how do I say this?
Are you still shameless? !
Niu Jinda lowered his head and kept drinking water without saying a word...
Guo Guangjing's face changed, he pondered for a long time, organized some words, and found that there was really nothing to say, so he asked directly Said: "This...isn't that good?"
Cheng Yaojin put the teacup heavily on the tea table and sighed: "I also know that it is difficult for people to do something, but what can I do? At this time, I will reclaim the land and I will not plant cotton seedlings next spring. The soldiers will have to wait for an extra year. The morale of the army should be more dispersed... The governor was once a soldier. He should understand the saying that the morale of the army is as good as a mountain. Once the morale of the army is dispersed, it will be defeated. How to defend one side and guard a state? In order not to happen, the Xiaoying incident , so he had to set off for Chang'an as soon as possible. "
Guo Guangjing thought for a while and looked at Niu Jinda: "The soldiers of the Left Wu Guard are all from Guanzhong, and they are still away for a long time, so they can't help but miss their homesickness, but the Right Guards are all children of Hexi. Tens of thousands of soldiers must be able to guard one side."
Niu Jinda quickly shook his head: "I dare not take on this important task! Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the Right Guard has been controlled by the An family and the sons. The penetration is like a sieve. Before it is completely cleaned, you must not bear the responsibility of guarding one side, otherwise if there is any change in the army, it will be too late to regret it."
Guo Guangjing completely understood that these two people were not here to discuss ?
It is clearly a warning.
If he followed the other party and persuaded the aristocratic families to "cede land for peace", then Liangzhou would be peaceful. If he did not, Cheng Yaojin would return to Beijing and return to the entire Liangzhou, he would be chaotic by the "remnants of the An family"... >
Looking at Cheng Yaojin and then at Niu Jinda, Guo Guangjing let out a long sigh and said helplessly: "I don't want to help you, but I really can't."
Cheng and Niu were very good He looked reasonable and the former smiled even more silly: "Knowing that this matter made the governor difficult, so it was difficult for me to speak of it, but after thinking about it, I feel that only in this way can the best of both worlds, and the governor does not need to feel guilty."
Guo Guangjing: " …”
Why do I feel guilty?
After careful consideration, Guo Guangjing said, "Since that is the case, Duke Lu can go to discuss with the aristocratic families. If the aristocratic families ask me for my wishes, I will support you."
Cheng Yaojin shook his head repeatedly: "I'm just a matter of He is a man in the countryside of Jeju. He has no knowledge or authority, and has a bad temper. How can he know how to negotiate? I am afraid that he will fight without saying a few words. At that time, he will be in a bad mood and will affect the public security in Liangzhou. It is better for the governor to come forward on his behalf."
No mistakes, one poem, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
Guo Guangjing was extremely speechless. He wanted to ask this person, do you know that you have to fight after saying this?
But Cheng Yaojin threatened Liangzhou's public security as a threat, and he was indeed deeply afraid.
Niu Jinda wore a pair of pants and followed his advice. If he really secretly created some "remnants of An" and caused trouble and destroyed them everywhere, the Liangzhou Governor's Mansion would have no choice.
If I don’t agree to come forward, Liangzhou will never have peace from now on.
In recent years, Fang Jun has been soaring and has no special momentum. The name of "Bangmao" has been heard in the court and the country. His unswerving style makes people complain and helpless, but they all forgot that before Fang Jun, there was another " The Demon King of the World "has been unreasonable and doing evil...
Compared with Fang Jun, this person is even better than that.
Sighing, Guo Guangjing said helplessly: "Then let me come forward and try my best to get the aristocratic families to give you a piece of land...How much does Duke Lu intends to bid?"
Cheng Yaojin pondered and thought, then said, "You may be able to afford the money for buying cotton seeds when you farm in spring."
Guo Guangjing widened his eyes and saw a ghost: "Only give the money for buying cotton seeds? ”
How much money can you have? !
"Even if it is not purchased at the market price, what about the money for reclaiming wasteland? What about the money for building canals? You can't pay any of it?"
Cheng Yaojin seemed more surprised than him: "Reclaiming land" It was the hard work of the soldiers under the tents of the Left Wu Guard and the Right Xiao Guard. Why do I still have to pay? Although the construction of the canal is expensive, not only is the wasteland reclaimed in the canal shared, but even the farmland on both sides of the river. It's also used, why do you want me to pay for it? ”
Niu Jinda, who was standing beside him, lowered his head and covered his face, had a new understanding of Cheng Yaojin's shamelessness and a new understanding of...
Guo Guangjing was dumbfounded, shocked and messy.
So, do you want to use tens of thousands of acres of cotton fields that have been cultivated and grown well without spending a penny?
Oh, it’s not that I can’t afford any money. The money for cotton seeds is still given... But how much money can cotton seeds have?
Is the cotton seeds worth ten yuan per acre of land worth? !
Taking a deep breath, he still had a hint of extravagance: "Duke Lu is serious?"
If you tell me that you are joking at this time, I really think it is a good joke.
Cheng Yaojin nodded solemnly and looked sincere: "Of course, it is serious. For the sake of tens of thousands of soldiers in the two armies and for the long-term stability of Liangzhou, this is the best way." The extravagant hope broke, Guo Guangjing absorbed it deeply. He glared at Cheng Yaojin for a long time. Seeing that the other party was looking at him without any shame, he could only nod: "I will talk about this matter, but I can't guarantee the result."
