Wei Lang, Dong Qu and other handsome leaders naturally understood the meaning of Yang Qing's words, and they were suddenly startled in their hearts, and their expressions were also uncertain, for fear that the Han prefect would use this to make trouble.
In fact, Yang Qing really doesn't know what to do with these people. When they are invited to come to the government, they must be sent back in full, otherwise the world will think that the government is not trustworthy. In fact, Wei Lang and the others also understood this, so they dared to come to listen to the training.
"I invite you all to come over today. Firstly, as a prefect, I want to meet you and get close to you. Secondly, I want to discuss with you some things that are beneficial to the Han and Yi people."
Is it beneficial to the Han and Yi tribes? All the heroes looked confused after hearing this. They wondered what kind of medicine this young Han prefect bought in his gourd.
Yang Qing took in everyone's expressions, sighed, and continued: "Gaoding's inciting the old people to cause rebellion, although it is due to his ambition, is not the reason for the long-term estrangement and conflict between the Han and Yi tribes.
After this incident, I felt that if I wanted to ensure the permanent peace of Yuexi and not repeat the same mistakes, I had to eliminate the barriers between the two ethnic groups. Then I invite you all to come together to discuss major issues, hoping to come up with some good ways to make the Han and Yi people feel like one family and enjoy peace forever. What do you think? "
After hearing this, all the powerful and handsome leaders looked at each other, not knowing how to answer. What the eunuch said made sense. The Gaoding rebellion caused heavy casualties among the people of all ethnic groups in Yue. In order to prevent this from happening again, it would be a good idea to come up with some solutions through consultation. of.
This thing sounds like there is nothing wrong with it, but everyone suspected that the government was used to it, and they felt that it might not be that simple behind it, so they remained silent for a while, and the huge hall suddenly became eerily quiet.
Just when Yang Xi wanted to say something to calm down the atmosphere, he suddenly saw Gu Lichi on the left saluting: "I am sincerely touched by your love for the Han and Yi people. I will only give you orders for things that benefit the people." The Guli tribe was the first to agree."
"Yes, the Lord just gives the order, and we will not hesitate until we die." After Gu Lichi said this, several other Qingqiang tribes were not to be left behind and immediately expressed their agreement.
A few days ago, they fought with the government and army, and they all gained a lot. Now they are completely convinced by the government, and they all happily obey Yang Qing's orders.
The Beijiao Zhuma tribe is brave and good at fighting, and its strength is not weak. Its heroic commander Wei Lang has always been arrogant and domineering and has no integrity, so the other tribes are vaguely headed by him.
Hearing these disgusting words from the Qingqiang people, Wei Lang's face was full of anger and he glared at Gulichi and the others. These guys have become the government's lackeys so quickly. They are really shameless.
Yang Qing also knew that among all the heroes, Wei Lang was the most arrogant. He knew that if he wanted to succeed, he had to convince him first, so he looked at him and asked, "What does Commander Wei Lang think of my intentions?"
Wei Lang raised his head and looked at Yang Qing, and saw that although the person in charge was young, his eyes were extremely sharp. It seemed that everything in his mind had been seen through by this person. With this thought, he suddenly felt ashamed and angry. Just now, he had actually thought about his life. It's really inexplicable to have fear.
He cleared these messy thoughts, thought for a moment and said: "The governor's proposal is to benefit the people of the Han and Yi tribes, and I agree with it. However, there are many tribes in the Yuexi area, and they have been entangled for a long time and have a lot of grievances. I am afraid that this matter It’s hard to do it all at once.”
"Yes, this matter is indeed difficult to handle."
"It's better for everyone to stick to their own territory."
...
Wei Lang took the lead in opposing, and Dong Qu and others immediately followed. They did not dare to openly oppose Yang Qing, but they just used excuses.
Yang Qing pretended not to hear what they were saying, and smiled at Wei Lang: "The handsome man is worthy of being the leader of the clan. He hit the nail on the head. I have little knowledge and know that this matter is not easy, so I invite you all." Come and discuss a solution together.”
"Mr. Yang Mansion..."
When Wei Lang saw Yang Qing quietly put aside his objections, he was about to argue, but Yang Qing stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "It's getting late, you all go to have a meal first. I'll let Wang Gong do it this afternoon." Chief Cao and Chief Yang will accompany you all around Qiongdu, and we will discuss it later in the evening." After that, he stood up.
"I'll be waiting to see you off." Wang Yi took the lead and bowed.
Wei Lang looked at Yang Qing's leaving figure, feeling shocked and confused. However, it was already dinner time, and he couldn't argue anymore. He made up his mind, no matter what happened in the afternoon, as long as he and the others met together. When recruiting and demolishing, we are not afraid of any tricks played by the government.
In the evening, the cool autumn wind blew in through the window, making Yang Qingdun's aching body feel light. He put down the letter in his hand, stood up and relaxed his shoulders. He planned to call someone to ask how the preparations for tonight's banquet were going, but suddenly he saw the courtyard. Two people flashed out of the Yimen at the end. Looking carefully, it was Wang Yi and Yang Xi who came hand in hand.
"Mulan, serve tea quickly." Seeing that the two of them were tired from work and looked tired, he knew that they would be very busy in the afternoon.
"No need to be polite, just sit down and have a rest." Yang Qing stopped the two of them from greeting each other and said with concern.
"Master Fu, a humble position..."
Wang Yi was about to report what happened in the afternoon, but Yang Qing interrupted with a smile: "Don't worry, let's drink some tea to quench our thirst first." After hearing this, both of them felt warm in their hearts, so they picked up their teacups and started drinking.
Wang Yi took a few sips and felt a lot more comfortable. He continued to report: "Master Fu, all the commanders have gone back to the post to rest for a while. They will come back to the mansion later for the banquet."
Yang Qing picked up the tea cup and took a sip, nodded and smiled: "Where did they go in the afternoon?"
"The workshop, the market, Dongcheng and the military barracks. Bizhang and Master Yang took them to see these four places mentioned by Mr. Fu."
"Oh, I wonder how they reacted after seeing it?" Yang Qing raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.
Wang Yi smiled and said, "Let Wen Ran talk about this."
Yang Xi glanced at Wang Yi gratefully, knowing that this was an opportunity for him to show off. Although he didn't need to do this due to his relationship with Fu Jun, it was a kindness after all, so he still remembered this favor in his heart. .
"Master Fu." Yang Xi cupped his hands and said, "We first took Wei Lang and the others to the foundry, and then took them to the market in Xicheng. It was fine in these two places. Although they were surprised, but It can’t be said that they were shocked. But after arriving at the East City Gate, their expressions became interesting..."
It turned out that the four workshops were carefully arranged by Yang Qing. As Yueqi returned to peace, manpower was transferred from the ironware, farm tools, and textile workshops in Anshang and moved to Qiongdu to build new workshops.
Firstly, it can resettle the people who are struggling to make a living, and secondly, as a county government, Qiongdu cannot be left behind. Although it is just the initial construction and the output is not much, it is on the right track, but it will gradually grow in the future.
After Wei Lang and others saw it, they also looked envious. Although they felt that the Han people's skills were indeed superb, this was always their advantage. However, the scale was much larger than before, and the rest was normal.
As for the market in Xicheng, it is not a place where people in the city buy and sell daily items, but a specialized place for trading leather, lacquer, silk cloth, salt, iron, and horses with various tribes. This is also one of the ways Yang Qing controls the Yi people.
In order to Chineseize the population from such tribes, it is indispensable to communicate with each other and strengthen the ties between the two tribes.
Normally, the exchange of goods between the Han and Yi tribes in Yue and Yi was only carried out in ordinary markets. It was not that the government had never thought of opening a separate market like this, but there were many Yi people here, and they were used to acting recklessly.
At that time, the power of the government was small, and if they gathered to trade and cause trouble, they would not be able to hold them back. Therefore, the county had let nature take its course.
It's just that now that Yueqi has been decided, the only tribes that come to trade are a few from near Qiongdu, so the whole market is not very lively.
When Wei Lang and others came to see it, although they also felt that setting up a separate market would be beneficial to both parties, the novelty soon wore off as there were only a few people there.
