Chapter 43: Planning


The light and shadow in the secret room were dimly swaying, illuminating Guo Jia's back a little swaying, looking at the content on the bamboo note, Guo Jia thought carefully for a while, and then looked up at Qin Pei.

"Zhang Ren" Guo Jia closed the bamboo note, and said with some puzzlement: "This person is quite capable, but now he is in an important position in Yizhou, and he is an important minister in Yizhou. ” Qin Pei smiled bitterly: "This person was born in poverty, and he can have today's position, all because of his loyalty, courage and fearlessness, which is quite appreciated by Liu Yan, and he is also a trusted minister before Liu Yan's death, his temperament is strong, and he wants to seek it."

In the end, he didn't continue, and it was difficult to say that Zhang Ren secretly defected to the court while helping Liu Zhang.

"It's okay" Guo Jia put the bamboo paper on the table, pinched his eyebrows and said: "Since this person is loyal to Liu Zhang, there is no conflict with us, but it saves a lot of effort." ” "That Zhuo Ying can try to contact him secretly, don't let him know about this matter, this person has a smooth temperament, don't be gullible."

Guo Jia didn't get up, but looked at the surrounding bookshelves and said with a smile: "These are all talents in Shuzhong."

"Not bad."

Qin Pei nodded and said, "Although their backgrounds are different, they are all highly talented. ” Guo Jia's eyes flashed with a gleam, nodded and smiled: "Jia wants to take a look at it here, these days, I'm afraid I'm going to disturb the mansion." ” "It's okay."

Qin Pei nodded hurriedly.

"In addition, there is one more thing that needs Brother Qin's help."

Guo Jia smiled.

"The envoy said it was okay."

Qin Pei bowed and said.

"I see that Brother Qin has already operated cement in Shu, but only for the people's livelihood, this thing is used to build roads, but it is good, if you can build a few cement roads in Shu, not only will my army enter Shu in the future, it will be much smoother, and when he returns to the court in Shu, it will also be convenient for Shuzhong to go with him, why not recommend that Liu Zhang build roads" Guo Jia looked at Qin Pei and wondered.

To get rich, first build roads, Guanzhong has proved this with the actual situation, now Guanzhong with the continuous construction of cement roads, coupled with the passage of rail cars, business has gradually flourished, so many talents in Shu, how can no one see the meaning or Qin Pei smiled bitterly: "That is, the subordinates are willing to sacrifice the method of cement concocting, but the road in Shuzhong is difficult, and it is also a large expense to repair the road. ” Guo Jia nodded, at the beginning, Liu Zhang dared to privately withhold the congratulatory gift that Liu Yan gave to Liu Xie, and later after Liu Yan found out, he made up for it, and wrote to Liu Xie to make amends.

"In the governor's mansion, or in the family, there are people who can speak," Guo Jia asked, tapping his fingers lightly on the table.

"There are some, now my Qin family's industry is all over Shu County, and I have dealings with many families."

Qin Pei said with a smile.

"For the matter of building the road, find someone to join forces to force Liu Zhang to compromise, Liu Zhang will contribute half of this money, and then the Shuzhong family will take the lead and contribute half of the money."

Guo Jia clapped his head.

"I'm afraid it's hard."

Qin Pei said with a wry smile, although everyone knows the benefits of building roads, but the cost of it, I am afraid that no one is willing to bear it, this matter, even if it is proposed, the family wants Liu Zhang to pay, and Liu Zhang also wants the family to contribute, so you push me and I push you, in the end, even if it can really be achieved, it will take a few years.

"Tempting it with salt," Guo Jia said with a smile.

"Salt transport," Qin Pei said in astonishment.

"Not bad."

Guo Jia nodded and said: "You can first pull a batch of refined salt into Shuzhong and sell it, so that people can see the huge profits in it, and then contact the various families, and use the equal salt transportation and trading as bait, asking the family to join forces and force the state pastoral government to compromise." ” "It's just a matter of salt transportation, Your Majesty's side," Qin Pei smiled bitterly.

Since the development of refined salt, Chang'an doesn't know how many merchants are staring at this piece of fat, and now the matter of salt transportation is almost all in the hands of Zhen, Su, and Zhang, the three wealthy businessmen, who want to get a piece of the pie, Qin Pei's own family knows their own affairs, and it is not enough to win it by themselves.

"Before I left, I had asked Your Majesty for the right to transport salt in Shuzhong, and the Zhen family would cooperate, but the source of goods was from the Zhen family, and you were only responsible for reselling."

Guo Jia said with a smile: "With this thing, it may make the Shuzhong family relieved" "Yes" Qin Pei was overjoyed, even if it was just the right to sell in Shuzhong, the profits were also very terrifying, the method of refined salt concoction had not been promoted, the imperial court had an absolute advantage in this regard, if it could be used as bait, Qin Pei was sure enough to persuade several major families in Shuzhong to do it with him, using this as an excuse, in order to make salt transportation more convenient and fast, driven by enough profits, enough for these people to willingly help them build roads.

"Go to transport salt first, this matter should be as soon as possible" Guo Jia said in a deep voice, the matter of cutting down Shu has now been put on the agenda of the imperial court, at most two years, I am afraid that there will be a war, two years, it is impossible to do a good job in Shuzhong, even if it is Guanzhong, now it is also a matter of repairing a few important roads, but as long as some dangerous places are done first, it will be of great help to the imperial army into Shu, Guo Jia has already thought of several important places, once the plan is successful, he will let Qin Pei focus on the development of these places.

Guo Jia stayed in the Qin Mansion until very late before leaving, did not tassel in the Qin Mansion, returned to the post house to find Liu Ye, but did not say much, not many people know about the secret guard mansion, but there are still people in Chang'an who know, but how much energy this secret guard mansion has, I'm afraid no one knows, Guo Jia knows, this is a hole card in Liu Xie's hand, and it must not be easily revealed to people, this time let himself know, one is Liu Xie's trust, on the other hand, how can it not be a binding For His Majesty's more and more proficient imperial mental skills, Guo Jia could only laugh and say nothing.

Early the next morning, Liu Ye took Guo Jia to the state pastor's mansion, and the process naturally did not need to be repeated, and when Liu Zhang received the edict, his panicked expression made Guo Jia's evaluation of this person a little lower.

One of the princes is sitting on the land of Shu, you are unwilling to leave, who can move you away, if you are still taken away in this case, then Liu Zhang, the prince, should be too cowardly.

No matter how incompetent Liu Zhang is, for Shuzhong, if in such a situation, he can be taken away by the people of the imperial court, then it is not Liu Zhang's personal problem, but Shuzhong as a whole was slapped in the face.

Liu Ye did not force each other too much, he just came to pass the edict, as for whether Liu Zhang returned to Chang'an, it is not under his control, Shu Chinese martial arts protection, and Liu Ye and Guo Jia's plan coincides, if really Liu Zhang was moved, although the face of Shu was beaten, but the imperial court wanted to send troops to attack Shu, there was no excuse, and after a few words of simple relief and appeasement, Liu Ye said that he only came to pass the edict this time, and did not necessarily take Liu Zhang away immediately.

In the eyes of Shu Chinese Wu, this is naturally Liu Ye's compromise.

"Ask Uncle Huang to say one or two in front of His Majesty, Ji Yu promises that he will never dare to do this again."

After the civil and military forces dispersed, Liu Ye, as a relative, was welcomed into the mansion by Liu Zhang to speak, and after waving everyone away, Liu Zhang cried and begged Liu Ye with a sad face.

At this time, he had just ascended the throne, and his foundation was unstable, so he really didn't want to hate the court that was gradually flourishing now.

"Ji Yu."

Liu Ye looked at Liu Zhang, sighed, shook his head and said: "There are some things, it is a matter in Shuzhong, I don't want to care, you are a member of the Han family, this world, after all, it is my Liu family, you are sitting in Shuzhong, Your Majesty was ready to rely on you as an arm, but this matter, Zhang Lu has already made trouble in the court, how can you let Your Majesty exonerate you" "Your Majesty has no intention of cutting down Shu" Liu Zhang couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this.

"You" Liu Ye glanced at Liu Zhang in disappointment, shook his head and said: "There is Yuan Shao in the north who is getting stronger and stronger, Yuan Shu in the south has a strong foundation, and in the Central Plains, there are Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Tao Qian, and the heroes rise together, you and I are all people in the Han family, if it weren't for the fact that this matter is full of ups and downs, and they are all descendants of the Han family, how could Your Majesty attack you at this time."

Liu Zhang thought about it, it was indeed the truth, after all, everyone was a descendant of the Han family, and Liu Xie had no reason to let the princes of the Central Plains ignore it and attack Shuzhong first.

Hearing Liu Ye say this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"But" Liu Ye's words changed, making Liu Zhang's heart that had been put down bring up again.

"What I saw in Shu this time, I was quite disappointed with you."

Liu Ye looked at Liu Zhang, shook his head and sighed: "Do you know that you have now become the laughing stock of the people in Shuzhong, you are the lord of Yizhou, even if you have it, how can it be the turn of these small people to discuss in vain?"

"These Diao people, Uncle Huang can rest assured, the little nephew will definitely deal with this matter in the future and severely punish these Diao people."

When Liu Zhang heard this, he couldn't help but say hatefully.

"Confused" Liu Ye snorted angrily: "There is a way to prevent the people more than to prevent Sichuan, do you want to force the people of Shuzhong to rise up and overthrow my big man?"

"This" Liu Zhang was stared at by Liu Ye for a while, and looked at Liu Ye cautiously and said: "My nephew is stupid, and I ask my uncle to teach me." ” Liu Ye sighed and said, "Do you know why this is happening?"

"The little nephew has lost his virtue."

When Liu Zhang heard this, he couldn't help but say bitterly.

"Wrong" Liu Ye snorted coldly: "It's a loss of virtue, how can this matter be known so quickly by all the people This is someone secretly attacking your prestige behind your back, making you lose your majesty, how long have you not been in charge, you can know that now the entire state pastoral mansion has been hollowed out by others" "This" Liu Zhang heard this, he couldn't help but panic, since he inherited his father's business, the number of days he has been in charge can be counted on one hand, and when he heard what Liu Ye said, he hurriedly bowed down and said: "Please uncle teach me" t1706231537:
