Afternoon.
When the sun is shining.
In the study room of the side hall of Chengyun Hall of Prince Yan's Mansion, Xu Yi slowly put down the langhao pen in his hand.
He stood up and stretched greatly.
In the past hour and a half, Xu Yi made several revisions to the original plan.
Finally, he completely clarified his origin in Yandi.
'If you want to gain a foothold, you must first lose money. , Xu Yi slowly sat down and murmured in a low voice: "In other words, if you want to establish yourself, you must first establish your reputation."
Nursing homes are the first step, and the targeted target groups are loyal people led by Zuo Shengyuan, as well as veterans of Yandi who have shed blood and been injured for Yandi.
If this step is completed, Xu Yi's position in the hearts of the older generation in Yandi will be completely stabilized.
But Xu Yi was not satisfied with just that.
Xu Yi lowered his head and looked at the rice paper at the top of the bookcase.
The rice paper was still full of neatly arranged houses.
Different from the nursing home, this rice paper has a huge open space.
In the lower right corner of the rice paper, the word "Gongxue" is clearly marked.
If the nursing home targets the elderly in Yandi, then the public school targets the children in Yandi.
In addition, under the rice paper marked with the word "public school", there are several pieces of rice paper of the same size.
As expected, those rice papers were targeted at the young adults, women and children of Yan.
If this set of combined punches is successfully executed, it won't be long before Xu Yi's control over Yan Di will be impregnable.
Of course, all of this is inseparable from money.
Xu Yi composed himself and immediately ordered: "Mr. Yang, come and see me quickly."
"Follow the order." A member of the Qingxin Hundred Guards walked out of the shadows outside the study and saluted respectfully.
After a while, Yang Xianan walked into the side hall study, covered in dust.
"Sixth Master." Yang Xian stopped and bowed his hands in salute.
Xu Yi nodded slightly, and then asked: "When will the renovation of the official office be completed?"
Yang Xian'an thought for a moment and then replied: "Returning to Mr. Liu, with the current number of craftsmen, it is estimated that it will take at least half a month."
Xu Yi frowned slightly and asked, "How much money do you need?"
"At least two thousand taels." Yang Xian'an replied directly without thinking.
Every courtyard in Prince Yan's Mansion was built according to the best standards at that time.
Even if it is later demolished and rebuilt, it will still be built to the highest standards.
It is precisely for this reason that the repairs of more than ten villas alone require two hundred taels of silver.
As the face of the palace was at stake, Xu Yi only hesitated for a moment and completely gave up on lowering his standards.
A man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle. This saying is no exaggeration when applied to houses.
Xu Yi composed himself and then ordered: "Renovate according to your original plan, and be sure to ensure the stability of the other courtyard."
"Yes." Yang Xian'an agreed.
Xu Yi looked at Yang Xian'an and continued to give instructions: "Later, you will hand over this matter to Yu Wenchong."
"Take my token and the land deed and go to Xialuo County, Zhulu County, Pancheng, and Jusu City to take over the salt wells and mines."
With that said, Xu Yi took out a thick stack of land deeds from his sleeve and solemnly handed it to Yang Xian'an.
….
Since the canonization ceremony, the Ministry of Household Affairs has handed over the land deeds for salt, minerals and other items to Xu Yi.
Now all Xu Yi has to do is to collect these salts, minerals and other products from various county governments.
Yang Xian'an took the land deed with both hands and solemnly saluted: "I obey!"
After he finished speaking, Xu Yi continued to give instructions: "After receiving it, all the laborers in the salt well will be sent home, and each person will be given five taels of severance silver."
"After the accounts of the remaining minerals are reconciled, the five old trading houses will take full control."
"Those who are willing to stay and continue working, let them stay, and on the basis of their original wages,
On top of that, the wages will be increased by 10%. "
"Those who don't want to stay will be given three taels of severance silver per person."
The production method of snowflake salt is related to Xu Yi's subsequent financial career, and there is no room for sloppiness.
As for other minerals, such as coal, gold, silver, iron, copper, etc., Xu Yi has no better mining methods.
Therefore, there is no need to go to great lengths to keep such minerals secret.
As for the 10% increase in wages.
It's nothing more than exchanging part of the profits for the loyalty of the mining craftsmen.
Yang Xian'an didn't say much when he heard this. He raised his hands again and saluted, "Follow the order."
Xu Yi nodded slightly and then motioned to Yang Xianan to do it immediately.
After Yang Xianan leaves.
Xu Yi slowly closed his eyes again, repeating the follow-up plan in his mind.
After receiving fixed assets such as minerals and salt, Xu Yi can be provided with a steady stream of financial support.
Among them, the amount of salt is particularly important.
After this was completed, only half a year's supply of food and grass, war horses, ordnance and other items were left.
Such things are delivered by people sent by the court, so it is difficult to guarantee the timeliness.
If Xu Yi's estimate is followed, it will take at least three to five days to arrive.
As for taking over the trapped camp, although the matter is urgent, we need to wait for a good opportunity.
If Xu Yi's original plan was followed, the best time to take over the trapped camp would be after the arrival of ordnance, war horses and other supplies, and when the Yan Palace officially recruits troops.
At that point, it’s just a matter of fishing in troubled waters.
After a while, Xu Yi opened his eyes, stood up and walked towards Xiao Qiang.
...
...
Not even halfway through.
When the sun is shining brightly.
Dozens of horses rushed out from Prince Yan's Mansion and headed straight for the four city gates.
As the horses galloped out of Prince Yan's Mansion, the informants secretly guarding outside the moat instantly became excited.
For a time, countless informants rushed to tell each other.
After the news was passed through many layers, it finally reached the county government office quietly.
In the study room of Juyang City County Government Office.
Sun Daohua waved away the cronies who came to report the news.
Then he made a pot of good tea by himself.
After finishing all this, Sun Daohua leaned on the Taishi chair and closed his eyes to rest.
It was not until two quarters of an hour later that heavy footsteps suddenly came from outside the study door that Sun Daohua opened his eyes.
For some reason, a look of forbearance flashed across Sun Daohua's eyes.
Sun Daohua stood up and walked to the door. He opened the door and stood behind it, with his hands hanging down naturally and his head slightly lowered.
This is to show the deep respect in his heart for the person who comes.
"You don't need to be so polite, Magistrate Sun." A young voice came to Sun Daohua's ears along with the footsteps.
….
Sun Daohua still maintained a respectful posture and slowly replied: "If it weren't for you, Mr. Li, I would have retired and returned home long ago."
The person who came was none other than Li Yu, the captain of Pinglu School.
Li Yu chuckled and walked into the study without saying anything.
After Sun Daohua closed the study door, Li Yu had already taken his seat.
Li Yu picked up the teapot and poured herself a cup of good tea.
After taking a sip, he put the tea cup down and said calmly: "Some time ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked someone to send some tribute tea, and now the Japanese general ordered someone to send some."
Sun Daohua's eyes narrowed slightly, then he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you Mr. Li for your kindness."
Li Yu waved her hand slightly, signaling Sun Daohua to take a seat as if he were the guest.
Then he said casually: "It's just some tribute tea. If Governor Sun thinks the taste is okay, I can write a letter to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince from the Japanese general and ask him to send more."
The country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change.
After many years of military
After five years of training, Li Yu himself is much more mature and steady than before.
But some things seem to be engraved in my bones.
It will not change with time and experience.
Perhaps even Li Yu himself had never felt that there was anything wrong with acting like this.
After all, he was the son of the current general and the prince's cousin.
The reason why Sun Daohua can still stand in front of him now relies on the power behind him.
But he neglected to explain why Sun Daohua came to the point where he needed to rely on the power behind him.
Sun Daohua lowered his eyelids slightly, cupped his hands and saluted, "I would like to thank Mr. Li for your kindness."
Li Yu waved her hand again and said, "Sit."
"Yes." Sun Daohua replied with a low profile as always.
After Sun Daohua took his seat, Li Yu straightened his sitting posture and at the same time put away the carelessness on his face.
"I heard that dozens of riders walked out of Prince Yan's Mansion?" Li Yu asked knowingly.
Sun Daohua nodded slightly and replied, "According to what the old servant said, that's exactly what happened."
"Have you arranged for someone to follow you?" Li Yu asked again.
Sun Daohua nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Li, I have already made arrangements. I think it won't take long to figure out the whereabouts of the Prince Yan's cavalry."
It is different from Sun Daohua who stays in Juyang City all year round.
Li Yu spends most of his time in the military camp outside the city.
Because of this, the burden of keeping track of the movements of Prince Yan's Mansion fell on Sun Daohua.
The reason why Li Yu came so quickly this time was simply because of Xu Yi.
When the prince comes to the vassal state, all civil and military officials in the vassal area where the prince's palace is located must go out of the city to greet him for ten days.
In addition, there are several unwritten rules.
One of them is the welcome banquet which is a common thing for human beings.
Sun Daohua did invite Xu Yi in accordance with the unwritten rules.
But yesterday Xu Yi postponed the reception banquet due to the fatigue of traveling.
Of course, mere postponement is not rejection.
Because of this, Li Yu and others still have to wait for a day or two in Juyang City.
Li Yu nodded slightly when he heard this, and then slowly said: "After I leave the city, if those people from the Flattery Division come looking for me, please ask Commander Sun to spread the news outside the city as soon as possible."
After hearing this, Sun Daohua assured again: "Please rest assured, Mr. Li, after I see those people, I will spread the news outside the city as soon as possible."
….
"Then I won't disturb you too much." Li Yu stood up and said a little bored.
"Best farewell to Mr. Li." Sun Daohua stood up and bowed his hands in salute, then personally saw him off.
Just as the two were about to reach the study door, there was a sudden rush of footsteps outside the study.
"Master." The hurried footsteps stopped outside the study door. After adjusting his breathing for a moment, he quickly reported: "Master, there is news."
Sun Daohua said nothing and looked at Li Yu slightly.
Li Yu frowned slightly and pointed at the bookshelf full of books in the study.
Then he walked slowly behind the bookshelf.
After Li Yu hid, Sun Daohua walked to the main seat and said calmly: "Come in."
"Yes." The man outside the door agreed, then slowly pushed open the study room and walked in.
"Sir." The middle-aged servant bowed his hands and saluted.
Sun Daohua waved his hand slightly, and then asked: "You just said you had news, what news? Tell me in detail."
"Yes." The servant agreed and then said, "Just now the news came from Sun Ming and others."
"The cavalrymen from Prince Yan's Palace went straight to the four city gates after leaving Prince Yan's Palace."
"After posting a notice inside and outside the city gate, I have been guarding the notice there."
Sun Daohua frowned slightly when he heard this and asked: "Notice? What notice? What is the content?"
"Go back to me, sir." The servant replied, "That notice is stamped with the seal of King Yan."
"Notice too
Chang probably means that more than twenty years ago, after the former King of Yan died in battle, Shi Pan Lianghu, the Chief of the Palace of Yan, and hundreds of palace officials and servants left Juyang City and embarked on a journey to welcome the return of the former King of Yan. The journey to my hometown. "
"It is said that Pan Lianghu and others finally found the body of the former King of Yan after all the hardships, but at that time the body of the former King of Yan was hung on the flagpole outside the camp by the Huns."
"Pan Lianghu and others could not bear the humiliation of the Huns after the death of the former King of Yan, so they personally led the 1,500 warriors gathered along the way to attack the Xiongnu camp at night."
"Finally, when the entire army was about to be annihilated, the body of the former King of Yan was recovered."
"..."
"..."
The servant slowly told the story in detail.
After the story of Pan Lianghu and Zuo Shengyuan is finished.
The servant continued: "The second half of the notice says that King Yan cannot bear the suffering of his warriors."
"I can't bear the thought of Zuo Shengyuan and other people who flattered Si Zhongyi before becoming helpless."
"We purchased two hundred acres of land outside Juyang City to build a nursing home."
"The medical officers, cooks, servants, etc. deployed in the nursing home will serve Zuo Shengyuan and other loyal people free of charge."
"In addition, Yan Wangyi promised to build at least 100 such residential homes within two years."
"To support all the veterans who were wounded and bled by Yan."
"As long as the veterans meet the requirements of being widowed, widowed, lonely, alone, old, sick, disabled, poor and unable to survive on their own, etc."
"After the subsequent nursing home is built, you can move in for free."
As soon as he finished speaking, the room was so quiet that you could hear a needle drop.
Sun Daohua frowned slightly and remained silent for more than ten breaths.
After more than ten breaths, Sun Daohua came to his senses and slowly asked, "How did the people who read the notice react?"
The servant paused for a moment and then replied: "Sir, according to what Sun Ming and others said, the people who read the notice all praised it."
….
"What's more, they will tell each other directly and spontaneously."
"Even the merchants who go out to do business in the city have promised that they will pass on this news to all the people in the two counties when doing business."
Hearing this, Sun Daohua's slightly frowning brows couldn't help but frown.
He couldn't help but murmur secretly in his heart: "The control King Yan has over people's hearts is so terrifying."
The notice begins with the experiences of Pan Lianghu and more than 1,500 warriors, which just captures the people of Yandi advocating bravery.
The middle part of the notice begins with the hero crying in the sky and leaving an orphan on his deathbed, and slowly guides the original emotions of the people to Zuo Shengyuan and other loyal people who, although their bodies are mutilated, are still affectionate and righteous.
At the end of the notice, the promise of a nursing home and hundreds of homes completely ignited the hearts of the people of Yandi, and then gained great fame.
Although Sun Daohua has not read the entire notice, he can already guess the overall content of the notice and how the people will react from the servant's narration.
After all, where is the core of the story, and the standard of the notice itself is that all instructions should be clear and concise, and should not be dazzled by the eloquence of the words. The so-called lady Tong Shu can understand this.
In other words, the notice needs to be written concisely and clearly, with simple language, so that people can understand it at a glance.
Because of this, Sun Daohua knew that it would not be long before the contents of this notice spread throughout Shanggu County and Yuyang County.
If there is a good person, change it into a drama.
Then it won't be long before this matter will be completely spread throughout the world.
Unfortunately, the contents of this notice are traceable.
The notice itself was stamped with the seal of King Yan.
This undoubtedly makes Sun Daohua unable to do anything on his own.
And there was nothing he could do to stop Youyou Zhongkou among the people.
Sun Daohua couldn't help but look at the bookshelf full of books.
He thought to himself: "In this first secret confrontation, Li Yu was completely defeated."
Sun Daohua composed himself, then waved his hand towards the servant and said:
"Let Sun Ming and the others continue to keep an eye on it. If there is any slightest disturbance in Prince Yan's mansion, they must inform me as soon as possible."
"Yes." The servant agreed, then slowly exited the study and carefully closed the door.
The emperor who came out of Zongzheng Temple through the ages.
