Chapter 1103
Liu Yu's words are actually a bit bragging.
Although the land in the ancient Northeast region was fertile, if you want to open up land and cultivate, two major problems must be overcome.
However, there are also large areas of black soil in the western region of Hezhong!
The first is a completely wild land, which must be managed in advance before it can be turned into high-yield land.
The second land is vast and sparsely populated, but the land has much better development environment...
Liu Yu's bragging was simply to describe the area of the Western Region River as a peach blossom land.
With the most fertile and richest land, only some backward barbarians who use fish skin and animal bones are simply an excellent place to make achievements.
After hearing this, Wang Ze was immediately moved.
After seeing Wang Ze, Liu Yu was also secretly happy.
His purpose was to make Wang Ze regard these places as excellent territory.
Because Wang Ze has become the biggest backer of the Taiyuan Wang family in the Central Plains.
Wang Chang, Wang Zan and other prefectures and counties are all without the Queen Wang Ze.
With the awareness of adding glory to the family, many Taiyuan Wang children recommended themselves to Wang Chang, Wang Zan and others, hoping to seek official positions.
There were so many people that they were all sent to Wang Ze in the end.
The king was very embarrassed about the uncles and brothers of these clans. He neither dared to value them heavily, nor could he refuse them.
Now after Liu Yu said this, Wang Ze immediately had a new idea.
Since Liu Yu wants to make great efforts to govern the Western Regions Protectorate in the future, he naturally needs more people.
According to Liu Yu's opinion, if you do it well, it would be easy to break the ground and enfeoff the territory. Although it was enfeoffed in the local wilderness, it could be considered a high-ranking official.
Wang Ze immediately had a solution.
Keep those clan children who are knowledgeable, famous and ambitious in Yecheng to develop slowly.
And those clans who had no strengths and only knew how to seek official positions every day were sent to the Western Regions Protectorate to educate the barbarians.

Chang'an.
A tall and brand new gatehouse, like a towering mountain, appeared in front of the Roman Maximilian.
The Roman Maximilian's curly beard turned trembling.
His lips were already trembling with excitement, and he tried hard to swallow his saliva before he could barely calm down.
"Ma An, come here!"
Suddenly, a yell with a Liangzhou accent recovered from the shock of the Roman Maximilian.
The Roman Maximilian immediately changed into a kind smile that was born with a businessman, and walked over with a small step.
"What are the instructions of the Zhang family?" The Roman Maximilian smiled.
A Han man wearing a soft leather robe has long been used to flattering him.
He pointed his hand at the Roman Maximilian and said to a small Han army leader on duty at the city gate.
"June, look, he can still say our words!"
"So what can I do if I can speak Chinese?"
The leader of the Han army stared at Nashi Pantuo seriously, as if he was watching a military medal.
"The Jiehu people back then were all good at saying that they were not the same beast!"
After hearing this, Nashi Pantuo was so scared that he broke out in cold sweat.
Although he was far away in Kangju Kingdom in the Western Regions, he still knew the wars that had taken place on the Central Plains in recent years.
The Huns were almost wiped out in the recent war, and their former lackeys, Jiehu people, were all wiped out by the Han people in the war.
The Jiehu people were actually the same ancestor as the Kangju people. Although they were subdued by the Huns early on, their appearance remained unchanged.
Nashi Pantuo didn't want to be chopped and killed by the Han army as a military success.
"This master, I am not a Jiehu. We are all great good people in Kangju, and we are good people who are eager to educate the Han Dynasty." Nashi Pantuo said in a strange accent.
This time he came to do business under the order of his master, but he was responsible for many tasks and could never be detained by the Han army.
As Nashi Pantuo finished speaking, a pocket filled with silver coins was stuffed into the hands of the Han army leader.
The Han officer slightly measured it with his hands and had an idea in his mind.
In fact, these so-called Hu people in the Western Regions business trips are basically impossible to have any evil spirits from the Jie Hu people.
However, since the reopening of the trade route, many Hu people in the Western Regions were not honest and tried their best to smuggle various prohibited items from the Central Plains, which greatly increased their vigilance among the Han soldiers.
Now seeing that the curly-haired Hu people in the Western Regions are so tactful, this Han officer plans to let him go.
"Then what goods are you bringing?" asked the Han officer.
The Liangzhou official surnamed Zhang was not about to answer, but Nashi Pantuo next to him spoke first.
"June, our Kangguo is rich in gems and horses. This time we bring all gems and horses, as well as a large number of spices and furs, which are legal transactions!"
"A legal transaction? I'm afraid that what you bring is legal, but what you want to take away is illegal!"
Han officers scoffed at this sentence.
"I dare to ask Jun Ye, what is there that cannot be taken away?" Nashi Pantuo asked immediately.
"My man's sericulture, horses, cattle, sheep and Dingkou are not allowed to be sold!"
The officer said in a row that many things that were not allowed to be sold.
Finally, he pointed his hand at the dozen bodies on the city wall and continued.
"Did you see, these Hu people from the Western Regions want to take their silkworm seeds away. After we find out, we will kill them!"
Nashi Pantuo looked at him again, and nodded tremblingly to show obedience when he left.
Since the Silk Trade Road was opened, Liu Yu has not forgotten some of the magic pits in history.
The most important thing is to impose a strict ban on many goods.
The most important item is silkworm seeds, that is, the source control of silk.
The historical outflow of Chinese silk was because Indian merchants and monks stole silkworm seeds and then circulated them in the goods.
From then on, the Western Regions and West Asia produced their own silk, and ancient China suffered a wave of commercial losses in vain.
Therefore, Liu Yu ordered the Han army in Guanzhong to strictly investigate various smuggling, especially for smuggling silkworm seeds, which were initially sentenced to death. If there were any accomplices, whether they were Han or Hu, whether they were civilians or officials, they would be considered as a general crime.
"I dare not, I dare not. We Kang people are all great good people, and we absolutely dare not do these things that violate discipline."
