There is no point in not nodding. In the current situation, if we don't maintain stability first, if the people and soldiers really explode, everything will be over. The reason why Cao Cao can be followed by others is to put it bluntly, isn't his combat power? Do some people really think that the combat power comes from Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dun, Xu Huang, Zhang Xiu and other generals? Without the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who stick to the mountains and rivers, these generals are useless!
What's more, this is no longer a matter of soldiers blowing up, but soldiers blowing up together with their fellow villagers. This is a true portrayal of rural fund-raising in the 1980s.
It's just that unlike the 1980s when rural people only had militia for combat effectiveness, the combat effectiveness of this group of people these days can really reach the world's top level. Yes, we are talking about the backbone of each ministry.
"Boss, can you ask Boss Cao for the brothers to see what's going on? Liu Ba's beast doesn't seem to want to give us money again, and this time we can't even find a temporary exchange place. The brothers said it's today When they see Liu Ba come back, can they exchange the money?" A veteran from Zhang Ji's era said to Zhang Xiu with an old face.
Although veterans of this age still have the combat effectiveness of the fifth-level Imperial Guard, they are basically no longer on the front line. They mainly help train young people. However, because they have face in front of Zhang Xiu and participated in blackmailing Liu Xie that year, , is considered highly respected among the Xiliang cavalry, so he was recommended to talk to Zhang Xiu about this matter.
As for why the current Centurion and Qianfu are not allowed to explain, this is in the military camp. Doesn't it mean that you are trying to force the palace? It is better to find a detour with the retired old leader.
"Fuck, Liu Ba, that beast, is swindling my money. Wait a minute. Is he back? When he comes back, I will block him. You ask the brothers to organize some who can fight. Today I will lead a team to block him. My The money was also hacked. "Zhang Xiu banged the table on the spot to express his peace of mind to the brothers, and I personally led the team to block it.
As soon as these words came out, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry team felt at ease. They also had a backer, and if Zhang Xiu could work together with them, then it would be fine, let's go.
Soon Zhang Xiu ordered thirty or fifty strong men to go to Liu Ba's house to block Liu Ba. He didn't really want to beat Liu Ba, but he just warned Liu Ba that you have to pay back the money. If you don't pay back, don't blame us for being rude. .
According to the previous situation, after Liu Ba was blocked, he didn't know where to get into, and then he was found by Cao Cao after a while, and then Cao Cao paid to settle the matter.
Zhang Xiu didn't quite understand this, but the civil servants with whom he had a good relationship in private told Zhang Xiu that this was called inviting people to buy people's hearts, and Zhang Xiu didn't care. Anyway, his brothers got the money and could live happily for another year, so that was fine. , you can’t really have no money.
However, there was really no money this time. When Zhang Xiu came over with thirty or fifty people, he found that Xia Houyuan was also bringing a group of rough guys. The two looked at each other and felt that something was wrong. In addition, Liu Ba was not blocked, and he vaguely heard that Liu Ba was back. , and went to Cao Sikong's place again. The two of them felt something was not good.
Zhang Xiu and Xia Houyuan had already led the team, so they dismissed their men, saying that they would solve the matter. As commanders of the army, their credibility was trustworthy, so they dispersed their generals and soldiers, and then Soon the two of them received a notice from Cao Cao.
By the time Zhang Xiu and Xia Houyuan arrived, Cao Cao's civil and military personnel had basically arrived, but the atmosphere on the court was extremely solemn.
Cao Cao had made up his mind at this time, and decided to divide the Helmand River irrigation area first to stabilize people's hearts, and then attack overnight to kill the Zhen family's branches in Central Asia near Herat and Kandahar, and seize the Zhen family's current All assets stored locally, and the Wei family took out all the physical assets currently available to try to solve internal problems first.
This decision was very painful for Cao Cao, because although the money to build the Helmand River Irrigation Area was raised by Liu Ba, a lot of it came from the Cao family, just like Liu Guan, Zhang Zhaohua Just as these people handed over their money to Chen Xi for management, Cao Cao also handed over his money to the people he trusted most and were best at economics.
Liu Ba invested all the money in industry. As the source of all industries, in terms of behavior, he was exactly the same as Chen Xi. All the assets of the Han Dynasty were actually related to Zhang Zhaohuayu's shares, but Chen Xi made certain adjustments. containment.
But in essence, there is not much difference in the behavior of the two people.
The money is kept in the industry for appreciation. The forces represented by Cao Cao have no idea of recycling all the funds into cash. After all, if they continue to be circulated as an industry, the value will continue to increase.
Therefore, even if it is taken, it is only a small part. Realistically speaking, Cao Cao's power can continue to operate despite any crisis as it is now because this group has become a group under Liu Ba's operation. A huge community of interests.
However, now that the economy is in turmoil, and to ensure internal stability, the only option for Cao Cao's forces is to distribute these existing assets directly to his soldiers and people, and make up for their losses first. Only after doing this can there be a solution.
It was extremely painful for Cao Cao to figure out all this, but in the end, Cao Cao endured the almost bursting of his brain nerves and forcibly passed the resolution.
The reason why this resolution was forcibly passed was because what was divided this time was not Cao Cao's assets alone, but most of the assets of the Cao family.
To put it simply, in order to fill the hole for the common people and soldiers, the physical assets, land deeds, etc. in their hands were directly invalidated.
After all, someone has to suffer, either the people and soldiers, or them. It seems that they can choose them and give up the people and soldiers, but without the people and soldiers, they can't run away after being involved in these, not to mention that even if they run away, they will He was caught up and hacked to death.
More directly, without the common people and soldiers, and without the political entity, will the people in Chang'an still view them from the perspective of a force? Not anymore.
At that time, those people in Chang'an must use the law as the benchmark. In Cao Cao's situation, the law is the benchmark. The skinning and cramping are not enough to make the people angry. The three tribes all deserve to be punished. So what to choose? It goes without saying.
Cao Cao gritted his teeth, and with the king's selfless consciousness, issued an order to divide the Helmand River irrigation area and cash in the tickets for the people and soldiers under his rule.
Du Ji, the head of the Du family in Jingzhao, fainted immediately after hearing Cao Cao's order. He was awakened by his son Du Shu, and finally accepted the reality.
These people themselves are smart people. They don't understand economics, but they understand people's hearts. They understand Cao Cao's considerations, so even if they know this order, all the land assets that the Jingzhao Du family transferred from the Central Plains will be replaced. It turned into nothing, and the entire family, except for their family voice, almost turned white in an instant, but they still gritted their teeth and nodded in agreement.
Because he would die if he disagreed, the sword that killed him came not only from the people under his rule, but also from Cao Cao who issued this order.
However, agreeing and accepting the order does not mean that everything has passed. Someone must take the blame for such an outcome. Therefore, in the discussion of rebellion, killing Liu Ba and Qing Junzi has become the mainstream voice, even among Xun Yu, People like Chen Qun must conform to this trend as long as they still need to consider their family.
Their intelligence can see everything clearly, and their wisdom also knows how to keep Liu Ba. Their experience clearly tells them that Liu Ba can perform better in the future if he is alive, but it is useless. Can't Du Ji see it? Don’t Ren Jun understand? We all understand, but Liu Ba must die!
As Chen Xi said, maybe the 500% overpayment is not Liu Ba's fault, but the person in charge is Liu Ba, so Liu Ba must bear the blame.
Just like when Chen Xi was held hostage by Lu Su in the Central Government, Chen Xi admitted his own problems. For some things, in his position, he had to take responsibility. Liu Ba sat calmly without a word of argument. From the moment he realized that the situation had become irreversible, Liu Ba was ready to be killed. "Take Liu Ba into custody." Cao Cao issued the order with difficulty. He knew that the problem was not with Liu Ba, but when things got to this point, there must be someone responsible, and if this person is not Cao Cao, then it can only be Liu Ba. bar.
As for Wei Zi, Zhen Shi, Du Shi, etc., these people are simply not qualified.
The top five wealthy businessmen are indeed world-famous, but that also depends on who they are compared with. In fact, just looking at the sugar output of Liu Bana Plantation, one of the top five wealthy businessmen has been in four to five years.
Therefore, Wei Zi and Zhen are not even qualified to take the blame. Even if they are indeed one of the sources of the overshoot and one of the lever operators, they are really not qualified.
Liu Ba stood up and bowed deeply to Cao Cao, almost lying on the ground. Then with the help of the guards, he left the government office. Xun Yu looked a little unbearable, but when he stood up, he was directly held down by Chen Qun.
Again, Xun Yu's morals are really good, but sometimes, morals will only drag people into the water. Chen Qun didn't want Xun Yu to be attacked by a group of people, even if he wanted to be Cao Cao's number one internal affairs backbone. But the position he wanted was not obtained this way.
It was already five days later when Chen Xi received the news, and at this time, many things were already determined - the industrial park in the Helmand River Irrigation Area was assigned to the people and soldiers under Cao Cao's command, and then Cao Cao personally led his troops to capture it. The Zhen family's branch in Kandahar was destroyed, and Barak led the team to destroy the Herat side. He ruthlessly scraped three feet of the ground to collect all land deeds, factories, mines, plantation documents, etc., and then divided them Gave it to the soldiers.
Of course, the total of these is not enough. Even if the Zhen family invests 70% of the entire parliament in Kandahar and Herat, the total of these is still not enough to fill the hole.
Erwei's local physical assets in Central Asia were also exchanged as the actual carrier of the tickets to Cao Cao's soldiers and people in the past few days.
However, it is still not enough. Of course, if there is a little debt at this time, the soldiers and people under his command will not be in much turmoil. After all, even in later generations, most of them prefer physical assets to money, so even if there is a gap at this time, Cao Cao's rule It's basically stable.
But Cao Cao had already achieved this level, how could he leave any omissions?
"So you, the Wei family, are going to mortgage the tax revenue from the Tongji Canal and the Guangtong Canal of the Grand Canal?" Chen Xi looked at the frustrated Wei Zi and said. "Yes, we will mortgage these two sections of the golden waterway." Make a mortgage." Although Wei Zi did not collapse, Chen Xi could feel the exhaustion from his heart.
After all, this is the elite waterway of the Grand Canal that connects the north and the south, and the two channels, Tongji Canal and Guangtong Canal, one is from the Huai River to the Yellow River, and the other is from the Yellow River to Chang'an. They are both waterways with a lot of traffic, even if they are opened up After shipping, the number of ships on the Grand Canal has decreased a lot, but Guangtong Canal is the only waterway to Chang'an.
As the economic, cultural and political center of the Han Dynasty, half of the materials consumed in Chang'an every year came from water transportation through the Guangtong Canal.
When the Grand Canal was planned, although the Hedong Wei family was annoyed with Chen Xi, they built the Guangtong Canal themselves in order to prevent Chen Xi from going to their side for construction work.
Therefore, the Hedong Wei family still has more than 40 years to share profits and taxes from Guangtong Canal, and this is really the hen that lays golden eggs. It is also the Hedong Wei family that has been doing business for so many years and is still one of the top five wealthy businessmen. The key to not being removed. Every boat that passes through the Guangtong Canal needs to pay a sum of money to the Hedong Wei family. Of course, the Hedong Wei family once had a miraculous workmanship of nature, which was the ferry from one ferry to another in Sanmenxia. The land route is straight.
If this thing can collect money, it can collect a lot of tolls every year. However, this miraculous craftsmanship that was classified as nature was later hacked by Chen Xi, so the only hens that the Wei family in Hedong had that actually laid golden eggs were in Guangzhou. The canal is open.
It can be said that the better Chen Xi builds the Central Plains, the more taxes the Hedong Wei family can receive from Guangtong Canal. Now Erwei has taken out their core capital in the Central Plains, although they still have some other things. , but compared to the ability of these two things to ensure a bumper harvest during droughts and floods, there is no comparison at all.
"After it's nationalized, you won't be able to buy it back." Chen Xi looked at Wei Zi and said calmly.
"With 12.4 billion in supplies, both the Hedong Wei Clan and the Chenliu Wei Clan will completely give up the management rights of these two sections of the Grand Canal from today on." Wei Zi said extremely tiredly.
Wei Zi is very clear. Thanks to Chen Xi, these two waterways can collect 500 million in tolls a year. With the prosperity of the Central Plains economy and the expansion of the north-south supply network, this number will only increase year by year. It will not reduce.
Unlike the north and south sections of the Grand Canal, which can be replaced by shipping, the western section faces Yanzhou and Yongzhou and cannot be replaced at all. Erwei truly occupies the core of the golden waterway, and with Chang'an at the end of the Guangtong Canal, this thing is absolutely The cash cow is a treasure that attracts the attention of countless people.
pity,
In this situation, it is impossible not to sell it.
