Chapter 685(1/2)
In the golden autumn of August, the fruits and melons are fragrant.
Shi Wen, the Marquis of Pingwu, and Xiao Yi, the uncle and nephew, launched an attack on Liu Zhang of the Northern Wei Dynasty in two ways.
For a time, the world attracted attention.
Everyone's eyes were attracted to this war.
How will the Northern Wei emperor Liu Zhang respond?
Liu Zhang appointed his eldest son Liu Baoshun as the commander, restrained all his generals and sent troops to fight.
Wars are flying!
The originally rich land has become scorched earth.
The person who was originally alive became a corpse.
Xiao Yi met Liu Baoping on the battlefield for the first time.
Without a word, everything is indifferent.
Each of them relies on their abilities to lead the troops of both sides to fight on the battlefield for three days and three nights, killing the sky and the earth.
The battle is in stalemate.
The Northern Wei Dynasty had many people, and there was a steady stream of military force to replenish them.
The lengthening of the front line and fighting a protracted war is obviously not good for Yan Yunge, who only has the population of three counties.
Fortunately...
Yan Yunge is ready.
It rained all night long.
The Northern Wei family was suppressed by Liu Zhang by force. Everyone learned to be honest and honest, and they were buried as turtles, and learned to praise their merits.
Unexpectedly, the battle situation was a critical moment, and the families of several coastal counties in the Northern Wei Dynasty suddenly reversed!
They opposed the Northern Wei Dynasty and Liu Zhang, and wanted to surrender to Yan Yunge.
They cooperated inside and outside to kill the Northern Wei officials and generals, and welcomed Xiao Yi's troops.
When the news reached the Northern Wei imperial city, Liu Zhang was furious!
The rebellion of the aristocratic family added a thick and colorful shadow to the originally clear situation.
Next, no one can decide which direction the war will go.
Liu Zhang sent troops to quell the rebellion, and at the same time secretly investigated what benefits Yan Yunge had given those aristocratic families, which made the aristocratic families risk their lives to rebel.
Those who dare to oppose him, Liu Zhang, have always been killed without mercy and killed nine clans.
No exceptions.
What's more, it was a real gun and a sword to kill officials and rebel, and the Northern Wei army even wanted to slaughter all aristocratic families.
A courtier stood up.
The reason why the aristocratic family risked their lives to rebel is clear, so there is no need to investigate.
The Northern Wei Dynasty took one-size-fits-all measures to deal with all opposition voices.
As long as you dare to oppose Liu Zhang's ascension to the throne and become emperor, those who say that Liu Zhang steals the traitor and gets the wrong throne will not care about civilians or aristocratic families, and they will be killed without mercy!
Liu Zhang's principle is to kill someone and be frightened. The living person will naturally control his mouth and mind, be honest and obedient, and recognize his emperor status.
and……
Killing aristocratic families is also a way to reduce the constraints of the court and clean up local tyrants, which is conducive to the government's governance of local governments.
The starting point is actually similar to Yan Yunge's management of two aristocratic families.
The aristocratic family controls the place, and the government becomes a decoration, and the thugs of the aristocratic family, which is definitely not possible.
The difference is...
Liu Zhang used force to suppress and kill, and all opponents were killed.
Yan Yunge did not kill, her method was to combine interests.
There are pros and cons of aristocratic families. You cannot just see the disadvantages and deny all aristocratic families in one breath.
The aristocratic family is about connections, resources, cultural heritage, knowledge, talent reserves...
In other aspects, there are unique advantages.
These advantages, if used properly, are wealth.
If you want to combine interests and take advantage of the advantages of the aristocratic family, you also want to pull out the aristocratic family from the land, so that the aristocratic family will voluntarily give up a large number of slaves and change their slaves to nationality. What should you do?
Yan Yunge's method is a masterpiece.
Use land to invest in a commercial bank.
North-South Commercial Bank, North-South Freight, Salt Field, Sugar Factory, Mining Field... expand and increase stocks.
For the vast majority of families, it opens the door to the convenience of combining interests.
In particular, the first batch of Shijia, who stood up and took the initiative to cooperate with Yan Yunge, successfully exchanged land for Salt Field shares.
Ten thousand hectares of land are exchanged for two cents of shares.
Do you think it's too little?
I don’t know how many people envy them, how many people beat their chests and stamp their feet, and they are too slow to get such good things.
Now, if you want to invest in the salt farm, the condition is to exchange for Wuli shares for 20,000 hectares of land.
After this comparison, did the first batch of aristocratic families who actively chose to cooperate take advantage of it?
Eight times the gap!
Yan Yunge refused to accept any of the Shijia's shares if he wanted to invest with money, or his own commercial bank.
She only accepts land investment.
Is she short of money?
She was so poor that she had only money left, so of course she could not have lost money.
What she lacks is the land and the population.
The aristocratic family handed over the land in exchange for shares.
A family suddenly lost tens of thousands of hectares of land, so there is no need to continue to raise a large number of land slaves.
Even if Tian Nu doesn’t need wages, food and clothing are still money.
Raising people requires money!
Hundreds and eighty people are okay, but they don’t have much food and clothing.
Can thousands of people still work?
I have too much food for my family and can't finish it, so do I keep thousands of slaves for free?
Of course it is impossible.
As the land held by the aristocratic families decreased, a large number of slaves were released to the public.
As parents of two counties, Ji Ping and Han Qizong began to get busy.
Register the population, build shacks, divide the land of tenants in the village...
This is the vigorous struggle of aristocratic families carried out by Yan Yunge in the two counties.
The family is well-informed.
The experiences of the families of the two counties, and the experiences of the families of the Northern Wei, should not be too happy.
The Northern Wei family is envious, jealous, and hateful!
They also wanted to invest in land, but the Northern Wei emperor Liu Zhang did not give them this opportunity.
To be precise, there is no large-scale business under Liu Zhang.
He has no shares to the aristocratic family, he only has land and population, and there is no business territory that has become a scale and an industrial chain.
After several years of operation and vigorously advocating the development of business, Yan Yunge has achieved the result of successfully conquering the hearts of the families of the two counties.
This is why we have taken the initiative to invest in land.
Liu Zhang didn't have this condition, so he couldn't imitate Yan Yunge.
The business controlled by the court is not enough to make enough money for the court to spend. How can we share the shares?
The most ridiculous thing about slipping into the world.
In the simple concept of the world, the industry of the court must not be affected by merchants.
The court wants to do business, and there is a young mansion, so why do businessmen need?
Shaofu is also an official, so naturally not a businessman.
To be continued...
