Chapter 665: Where Does the Money and Food Come From?


{Thank you to my friend Luo Xianchao Zi Kuang Ji for the monthly pass} Yang Yan looked up and saw that many people were still looking at him, and Xun Guan even smiled at the corner of his mouth, so he said: "The man has a beard at thirty, and I am only twenty-four, which is still early, not to mention that from the perspective of medicine, beard growth is harmful to the body."

"Oh" Xun Guan became interested and asked: "Why are the men in the world, except for the eunuchs, who don't have beards, why don't they get in the way?"

Yang Yan explained: "It's very simple, the beard will absorb dust, and around the mouth, it is easy to get dirt into the mouth, and the beard is troublesome to take care of, I heard that Guan Yunchang takes half an hour to take care of his beard every day, and he usually has to wrap it in a cloth, with this time, what is not good, half an hour a day, how many books can be read, how many words can be read and then take a step back and say, even if you sleep on the couch, you can sleep for half an hour more and you can be in better spirits, isn't it?"

Before Xun Guan's fallacies were spoken, Li Hui'er nodded her little head: "Actually, the concubine thinks it's good that the king doesn't have a beard, he looks neat and refreshing, and he looks vibrant." ” In the Ming army, there were also those who did not have beards, such as Zhang Jun, who was two or three years younger than Yang Yan, and pinched his smooth chin at this time.

"This is" Xun Guan looked at Li Hui'er.

"I've Seen a Girl" Liu Lanzi gave a salute first, then took Li Hui'er and introduced her.

"Oh" Xun Guan looked at Li Hui'er, just like when she looked at Xiao Qiaoniang, that strange gaze made Li Hui'er's pretty face float with layers of blood, and she was uncomfortable, especially Xun Guan's aura was very strong, so she gave an awkward salute: "Hui'er has seen a girl." ” "Hmm" Xun Guan nodded, pulled Li Hui'er up, and said with a smile: "Don't be so nervous, call me sister in the future."

As he spoke, he looked at Yang Yan, as if he was blaming him for not letting go of such a young girl.

Yang Yan hurriedly snorted: "You female comrades talk slowly, and we male comrades talk about business." ” The people present did not understand the meaning of female comrades and male comrades, and when they were pondering, Yang Yan had already turned his head to Yu Yao and said: "Liu Yao will never be captured, there are 200,000 sharp soldiers in Chang'an City, including 30,000 forbidden troops, these 30,000 people are all Huns who have experienced a hundred battles, loyal to the lord, even if they die, they will die before Liu Yao, we can't take it lightly."

On the surface, the enemy of my Ming Dynasty is more than 400,000 troops of the two Zhao and Xianbei people, but Shi Hu is no better, he does not dare to attack me with all his strength, this battle is by no means a short time to distinguish the winner or loser, the key lies in the competition between national strength and logistics."

Du Hong took over and said: "The king is reasonable, the situation in Guanzhong is unpredictable, it is better to wait for it to become better, but it is protracted, and our army of nearly 200,000 troops is consumed in Guanzhong, and we can only rely on Wuguandao and Longyou to supply, and the road consumption is huge, and the rear may not be able to bear it."

Yang Yanhe smiled: "When it comes to pressure, Shi Hu is far greater than me, he transports grain from Hebei to Guanzhong through Bingzhou, the transportation line is longer than ours, and it is single, and the consumption is greater, and the Yellow River will thaw next year, and the navy can go north to the Yellow River and cut off his grain route, and this battle depends on who can't hold it first." ” Liang Zhi said with a smile: "According to the general, the first person who can't hold on should be Liu Yao, Chang'an City originally had nearly 500,000 soldiers and civilians, and recently there has been an influx of refugees, reaching a million people, and now Zhao Guo is only a lonely city in Chang'an, how can he have so much food" Everyone is unbearable, it is conceivable that in the coming days, Chang'an will be hungry everywhere, and even eat Yizi and eat, the tragic phenomenon of people, but no one can come up with a solution, unless Shi Hu is quickly defeated, but it is obviously impossible, and at the same time, Liu Yao's existence will make this battle even more procrastinated, and no one dares to do their best to prevent Liu Yao from suddenly coming out of the city.

Yang Yan's eyes were sad, and he looked at the head of Chang'an City for a while, and then said to Liang Zhi: "Alone you stab Yongzhou, govern Weicheng, incorporate the west of Chang'an into my Ming territory, organize refugees to produce and farm, and return the existing wheat fields to the owner as much as possible, but I can't find it, first confiscate the tuntian for a year, and then distribute it, if someone comes to ask for it with the title deed, compensate him for the loss, and try his best to appease the Haoqiang clan, at least maintain neutrality, if you can use it for me, you will do a credit alone" Liang Zhi is overjoyed, Yongzhou Thorn History, although Shang Luo is too shou rank than two thousand stones, Thorn History is only two thousand stones, one level higher, but the essence is completely different, and he solemnly gave a salute at the moment: "Please rest assured, the minister will leave tomorrow morning, and he will not teach Yongzhou to cause chaos" Xun Guan interjected from afar: "Where did you get so much money and food, hundreds of thousands of refugees resettled, calculated according to the daily eclipse of seven liters, at least ten thousand stones of grain per day, not to mention that in the future, someone will come to the door with the title deed to claim the field, how much money will you have to pay in full."

As far as I know, one acre of plaster land in Jiankang is about 10,000 yuan, and the medium field is 2 to 3,000 yuan, all of which are priced at a full value of five baht, although the fields in Guanzhong may be barren, even if the price is halved, you have to calculate how much money you have to prepare."

Oh, yes Liang Zhi is embarrassed, and it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.

Yang Yan smiled slightly and asked, "Can the girl tell me about the strength of the Jiankang family?"

"The Jin lord has 30,000 troops, and Tao Kan's troops are about 60,000 to 70,000" Xun Guan groaned slightly and said truthfully.

Yang Yan asked again: "How is the city easy to run?"

City Yixing and Jiang Yuan Entertainment have opened in the autumn, although there is a letter newspaper, but the distance is far away, Yang Yan still wants to hear Xun Guan's opinion.

Xun Guan frowned: "Yang Yanzhi, if you want to fight the idea of the Jiangdong clans, Jiankang is not Tancheng, Tancheng Township Hao was taken by you and was powerless, and the Jiangdong Shi clan is unfathomable, take the Langya Wang clan as an example, you know how many soldiers his family has and Gu Lu Zhu Zhang, all of whom have suffered losses in your hands, but how much do you know their hidden strength, do you want to fight on both sides?"

Yang Yan smiled disapprenously: "A nest of snakes and rats, what qualifications do I have to fight on both sides I don't know if the girl has ever studied the likes of snakes and rats, when a wolverine breaks into the cave and steals a lot of food, do they work together to take back the food from the wolverine's mouth, or kill each other and feed on the weak."

"This" Xun Guan was speechless, thinking about it carefully, isn't Jiangdong now a nest of snakes and rats Yang Yan, an outsider, is a wolverine, plundering a lot of wealth through the city, and the various clans in Jiangdong are the same enemy, taking revenge on Yang Yan, or cannibalism and annexing the weak The difficulty of the two cannot be compared.

What's more, if the Shi clan is weakened, how can Sima Shao miss a golden opportunity "Hmph" Xun Guan already agreed with Yang Yan's judgment in his heart, but he still snorted stiffly: "There is a wrong, there is a debtor, why are you sure that the various clans will not join forces to attack the city?"

Yang Yan smiled slightly: "It's nothing more than a wave, I don't believe that the city will not be able to survive even a wave, and then Sima Shao and Tao Kan will have their own minds and annex the inferior scholar clan on trumped-up charges, and gradually, Gaomen will also join it, and Jiangdong will fall into turmoil."

This is not my groundless speculation, but the nature of people to bully the soft and fear the hard, the way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency with more than loss, and the way of man is not enough to give more than enough. ” Xun Guan said: "The matter of Tancheng was not confidential back then, so at the beginning, each family was wary of the city, but there were always people who hoped to get rich overnight, gradually, someone began to set foot and earn money through trading, one to ten, ten to hundred, more and more people involved, and even Lu Na, Wang Pengzhi, Cai Department, Yang Hui and other high-ranking children, have also become frequent visitors to the city, these people speculate in futures during the day, linger in the gambling stalls at night, so they are not happy.

Although there are people of insight such as Lu Ye and Wang Dao who severely denounce the market for being easy to do, the wealth and goods are charming, not to mention that they get it without work, people sit at home, and the money comes down, and they can finally manage it for a while, but they can't manage it for a lifetime. ” "Good" Yang Yan said hello, then turned his head and said, "Du Jun, please go back to Jiankang and preside over the affairs of the city." ” "No" Du Hong was overjoyed and gave a gift.

Yang Yan originally intended to let Rong E return to Jiankang to preside, but after thinking about it, forget it, after all, Rong E is a woman, and her age is not young, she presides over the treasury in Luoyang, and she is well organized, even the most traditional old masters such as Diao Xie and Xi Jian can't find fault with her, and it is difficult to find someone to replace such a financial master.

And Rong E has some relationship with Yang Yan, and refuses to enter the palace, so Yang Yan plans to have a child with Rong E after returning to Luoyang, give her a pension, and follow Qianlong's illegitimate son Fukangan, who does not have the title of a prince, but keeps a rich life.

Suddenly, Yang Yan looked ahead again, and smiled: "Shihu is coming, the girl is willing to go to the meeting with me."

Xun Guan didn't speak, turned straight on the horse, and squinted at Yang Yan.

The desolate horn sounded in the army, and tens of thousands of horsemen lined up in a neat formation, with Yang Yan and Xun Guan slowly galloping away, and successively injected into the plain ten miles southwest of Yongmen, the northwest corner of Chang'an City. 。
