At the banquet that Lu Xuan held for Yang Biao, only Lu Xuan, Yang Biao and Yang Xiu were present. When the banquet was over, Lu Xuan gave Yang Xiu a holiday and asked Yang Xiu to take Yang Biao to visit Shu County and learn about Shu County. Customs and customs.
The father and son left the palace and wandered around the city. It started drizzling halfway.
The mist is misty and the scene is charming.
Yang Xiu and Yang Biao sat down at a nearby tea shop, ordered a pot of tea, and sat watching the scenery in the city.
Yang Biao quietly looked at the people walking on the street. Although it was raining, the people walking on the street were not in a hurry. They held oil-paper umbrellas and walked slowly. Those who should go shopping still went shopping, and those who should do business still did business, as if A paradise.
The tranquility reveals comfort and ease, making people unconsciously fall in love with such hazy beauty.
Yang Biao took a sip of hot tea and said with emotion: "The beautiful scenery in Jiangnan is well-deserved. However, Jiangnan is a gentle town and can easily become a hero's grave. Lu Xuan is a hero, but it may not be suitable to make the south the capital in the future."
Yang Xiu chuckled and said: "Father, it is expedient for the king to base himself in the south. My son believes that once the king aspires to conquer the world, he will definitely move the capital. Qin united the world in Xianyang, Gaozu settled the world in Chang'an, Emperor Guangwu united the world in Luoyang, It’s always been the north.”
"Only when the north is stable can the world be stable."
"The north is uncertain, and the world is in trouble."
"Although the south is rich, only a few places such as Jiujiang, Lujiang, Danyang and Wu County have developed, not Yuzhang County and Kuaiji County. As for Jiaozhou further south, it is a marginal place with high mountains, ferocious beasts, and too much miasma. The king is too lazy to care about it for the time being."
Yang Xiu said: "Therefore, there is no need to worry about my father. The king will definitely go north to make his capital in the future."
Yang Biao stroked his beard and said: "In establishing the capital in the south, the powerful families in the south benefited, and the officials in the south benefited. When they moved to the north, everything changed, which meant that the powerful families in the south lost their biggest advantage. Therefore, they Wouldn’t agree.”
Yang Xiu looked confident and said, "Father is still too worried about this."
Yang Biao glanced at Yang Xiu in surprise.
Brat!
No objection, it’s uncomfortable, right?
Yang Biao snorted and said, "Tell me, what do you think?"
Yang Xiu replied: "The reason is very simple. Your Majesty is not the king who defends the country, but the founder of the country. Your Majesty's prestige in the army is unprecedented. Your Majesty wants to move the capital, and no one can stop it."
"If the king does not move the capital now, and the new king in the future wants to move the capital, it will be even more difficult and there will be huge resistance. Unless there is a big change, it is possible to move the capital north, otherwise it is absolutely impossible."
Yang Biao glanced at his son.
His son is smart, sometimes a little smart, but doesn't understand the big principles.
Now, there seems to be some changes.
Yang Biao waved his hand and said: "The future is unpredictable, and it is too far to say. For now, Lu Xuan has the upper hand, but the outcome is uncertain. After all, Cao Cao is also a hero, very powerful. Yangzhou is changing, and Guanzhong is also changing. It has been a few months since you left Luoyang, and Luoyang is changing every day."
Yang Xiu smiled softly and said: "Father, my son has stayed in Guanzhong for such a long time, how can he not know about Luoyang? I can't tell what Cao Cao's future will be like. I only know that Yangzhou is changing with each passing day and developing rapidly."
Yang Biao's cheeks twitched when he heard this.
He glanced at Yang Xiu again, "You kid, are you just trying to make a fuss?"
He suppressed the sudden irritability in his heart and said, "Let's talk about it."
Yang Xiu said unhurriedly: "Son, I will briefly mention three points. The first is the ferry terminal in the south of Shu County. If you go south by water, you should have seen it. Countless goods are handled every day, and there is a constant stream of people coming and going. Absolutely, it can be said to be one of the most beautiful scenery in the world."
Yang Biao snorted: "Just so so."
Yang Xiu continued: "Secondly, the Zuobo paper used by scholars all over the world is all in the south. Nowadays, the papermaking industry in the south is becoming more and more prosperous, and there are more papermaking materials. In addition to wheat straw, rice straw, mulberry bark, etc., there are also There is bamboo paper made from bamboo. Such an industry makes the land south of the Yangtze River prosperous and prosperous."
Yang Biao curled his lips and said, "This is not surprising."
Yang Xiu said: "Thirdly, when merchants in the south want to transport money, they no longer need a large number of ships to transport it, nor do they need escort protection. All they need is a ticket number, such as depositing one million yuan in Dantu County, Wu County, and when they arrive, Shu County can extract it with just a piece of paper. Father, do you know this?"
Yang Biao was shocked when he heard this.
Ticket number?
He leaned forward and asked, "What is this?"
Yang Xiu smiled and said: "This is the king's exclusive creation. The establishment of a ticket number will make commerce more circulated and merchants more convenient. The increasing prosperity of southern commerce is inseparable from the ticket number."
Yang Biao frowned and said, "I still don't understand how this happened."
Yang Xiudao: "When you get to the south, you will slowly get used to it, and these are just superficial. Take a look at the Five Classics Museum and the large market controlled by the government. These are the foundations, making the overall national power of the Wu Kingdom far surpass that of Cao Cao and Cao Cao. Yuan Shao."
Yang Biao stared at Yang Xiu's beaten face, turned his eyes, and suddenly said: "You must have a purpose for showing off this. Tell me, what do you want to say?"
Yang Xiu smiled and said, "Father is wise!"
Yang Biao snorted and said, "Put your butt out and I will know what you are going to fart."
Yang Xiu's expression became serious and he said solemnly: "My father plans to stay in Wu, which is good. I hope that my father will return to Luoyang and lobby the old officials of the Han Dynasty in Luoyang, such as Sima Fang and Fu Wan, to go south."
Yang Biao sneered and said: "Dezu, how can your father and I have such great dignity? Sima Fang is upright, just, dignified, and a famous person in Hanoi. As for Fu Wan, he is the head of the country and a prominent person. Some other veterans, It’s not easy to persuade. You kid, you really think highly of your old father."
Yang Xiu chuckled and said: "Father is the backbone of the old minister. If you come forward, what can't be done? What's more, the king gave the descendants of the Han Dynasty a chance to live. They didn't have time to rejoice, so how could they disagree. Father. , can you help a bunch of sons?"
Yang Biao sighed.
He looked at Yang Xiu and said in a deep voice, "Aren't you worried that when these people come, they will hinder Lu Xuan?"
Yang Xiu chuckled, shook his head, and said: "The king controls the world and suppresses everything. Father does not need to worry about this. Without the emperor, it is impossible for these old ministers to make waves."
"Also, even if you can't convince them to go south, you can still win over them."
"I know that my father is unwilling to abandon the Han Dynasty, and your actions have not betrayed him either. Everything is for the continuation of the descendants of the Han Dynasty."
"Otherwise, there will be three pillars in the world, and when the three kings become emperors, the bloodline of the Han Dynasty will really be cut off. So, you have not only helped your son, but also fulfilled your insistence. Please think again, father."
Yang Biao sighed: "You boy, you are really..."
Yang Xiudao: "Father, can you just say it's okay?"
"Okay, why not."
Yang Biao's eyes were full of resentment, and he said helplessly: "I have arranged everything for my great son, how can I still refuse? In order to be loyal to Lu Xuan, your kid even tricked your father."
Yang Xiu said: "You have misunderstood your son."
Yang Biao took a sip of tea and said, "What's the misunderstanding? Don't I understand you yet? That's all. Lu Xuan is also kind and righteous, so I'll do my best. However, I'm afraid it's difficult. I'll try to get closer to you."
"Thank you for your hard work, father."
Yang Xiu suddenly laughed.
There was a lot of anticipation on his handsome face, this was an opportunity to make a contribution.
