Chapter 44 Haimen's New Look

()ps: I sincerely thank Xiaoxiao Luan Hongchen for the reward~~~~~

After hearing this, Yunfeng didn't even have the energy to glare at Yu Wenjun, and his expression became even more bitter. What a damn bastard! When kings are kings, they all indulge in extravagance, but it's not good for him. This king is probably the most coward in history.

The king has not even been on the throne for a year, and he is going bankrupt!

"Hey~~!" Yunfeng put down his chopsticks and sighed heavily! Where can he get money? The taxes collected from farmers can barely pay officials if they don't fight wars, update armaments, and don't engage in development and research.

Blessed, the income tax has not yet been levied. Even if it were levied now, it would be a long way from quenching the thirst, not to mention how much it could be collected is still unknown.

There are only more than three million people in the country, and merchants are less than one percent. Today, the population of Zhao, Qin and Jin, let alone compared with Shanghai in later generations, is probably not as good as Tianjin, and Tianjin is still

There are more than 10 million people! And the Shijian Silver Mine on the silkworm-shaped island can only be started after the Liangzhou Navy is built. It is really difficult to be a leader!

Su Qizhen couldn't bear it and persuaded her: "Your Majesty, you do little corvee and don't give much. All your money is in the people, but you have no money in your hands. Although it sounds unbelievable, in fact, this is the embodiment of your benevolent government and love for the people. I believe that the casualties are

The families of the soldiers will be considerate, and I will see how it goes. How about explaining the situation to them, paying the debt first, and then paying it back when you feel better?"

Yu Wenjun followed: "General, don't you always say that you want to hide wealth from the people? Now, you have really hidden wealth from the people."

"Wenjun, please stop saying a few words!" Zhang Lingyun gave Yu Wenjun a reproachful look, then looked at Yunfeng and said, "Yunlang, what Qizhen said actually makes sense, and the soldiers should understand."

Yunfeng thought for a moment and said helplessly: "Let's take a look first and then talk about it after a while. There will still be some time before the war ends. I will think of a solution when I am a husband."

Liu Yueru suddenly had an idea and couldn't help but said: "Yunlang, we still have many boxes of jewelry at home. If it doesn't work, we will sell them and exchange them for money to give to the soldiers."

Yunfeng spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "Who are you selling to? Jewelry is not a necessity of life, and it cannot be sold just by selling it. Except for the big gentry, a few wealthy businessmen, common landowners, and ordinary people, even if they want to buy it.

buy some bargains,

It’s just a drop in the bucket, and selling it in large quantities will inevitably lead to price drops, and in the end the gains outweigh the losses. What’s more, jewelry is the private property of our family, public is public, private is private. Unless it is absolutely necessary, it is better to separate public and private.”

After hearing this, Liu Yueru also sighed quietly, she had no choice.

For a moment, everyone in the tent had their own thoughts. The meal was extremely depressing, but Geng Wenjun suddenly nodded to himself: "General, Wenjun has a suggestion. You can force Liu Yao to surrender.

Then, start with him."

"Liu Yao?" Zhang Lingyun seemed to have thought of something and asked unconsciously.

"Yes. That's him!" Next, Yu Wenjun held up his fingers as if he were counting treasures from his family: "Sister, you see, when the city of Luoyang was destroyed, the city's wealth was divided between Liu Yao and Wang Mi. Wang Mi later fell into a trap and died in Shi Le

However, Liu Yao was different. After plundering the Luoyang Palace, he attacked Chang'an, forcing Emperor Min to open the city and surrender, and took Chang'an into his hands. The wealth of Chang'an also belonged to him.

Also, during the Pingyang Rebellion, Jin Zhun destroyed the Liu family, and the wealth of the Liu family naturally belonged to Jin Zhun. Another year later, Liu Yao and Shi Le both attacked Pingyang, and Jin Zhun's younger brother Jin Ming

Kill Jin Zhun and hold Man full

The city's ladies surrendered to Liu Yao, so all the wealth of the Han Dynasty fell into Liu Yao's hands. After all, Liu Yao and the dignitaries in Chang'an City had a lot of money! It was probably enough to pay for the expenses of this battle!

"

Yunfeng was puzzled: "I'm afraid this is not a good idea? When Li Xiong surrendered, he allowed the powerful people in Chengdu to take away all their money, leaving behind a good reputation for being kind and not wealthy. Now that he is thinking about Chang'an, will Guanzhong be let go?

Are the people feeling uneasy?"

"Hi!" Yu Wenjun chuckled disdainfully: "At this time, at that time, General, you were not short of money, and you were happy to be a favor to buy your reputation. But now that the treasury is empty, how can you let such a big man do it if you don't use some means?

A Qin country goes to drink from the northwest wind? What's more, the money of Liu Yao and other powerful people was also robbed. If you take it back from him, it will mean nothing."

Yun Feng's heart was moved, and he nodded and said: "Miss Yu is right. The property of Liu Yao and others were plundered from the Jin Dynasty. It is only natural for me to demand it back from them on behalf of the court. Huh! I'm not allowed to go to Hanzhong to open the river."

That’s enough face!”

Yu Wenjun showed an extremely exaggerated and disgusting expression, and asked again: "General, do you want to rob me by force? Aren't you afraid of losing people's hearts?"

Yunfeng ignored it and asked: "So what if I don't snatch it? Will Liu Yao willingly give it to me with both hands?"

"Hey~~" Yu Wenjun sighed heavily, and gave Yunfeng a look that declared this person hopeless. Then he said seriously: "General, Wenjun didn't tell you, and Wenjun doesn't know that you are turning around all day long.

What are you thinking, how could a very smart person act foolishly? Forget it, Wenjun tells you, how much food can Chang'an have if you and Shi Hu have besieged the city for so long? You can think of it.

See, food prices are bound to skyrocket, so you can sell food to the powerful at super high prices. As for ordinary people, you first adopt a rationing system. Each person is rationed five liters or six liters per day, which is just enough to eat. In addition,

Private selling is strictly prohibited. Then when the wealth of those big families has been absorbed by you, you can supply the food normally, so that Chang'an will be able to return to normal before long!"

With Yu Wenjun's suggestion, all the haze in Yunfeng's heart was swept away. He couldn't help but look over with burning eyes. At this moment, Yunfeng really wanted to fly up and give this little pepper a hard reward.

Remember the fragrance

Kiss, but Yu Wenjun was already wary and would pull away at any time, so he had to give up the idea and said with a smile: "Miss Yu is really a vicious tactic! I admire you, I admire you very much!"

"Humph!" Yu Wenjun snorted proudly.

Zhang Lingyun frowned and asked with some worry: "Yunlang, although you got money by doing this, it is just equivalent to changing the term robbery. In fact, it is still robbery. Will it arouse the opposition of the powerful people in Chang'an?"

Hatred?”

Yunfeng waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, I will just move them away for my husband. They will all be moved to Liangzhou. Liangzhou happens to have a sparse population, especially in Bajun and Brazil. Mountains are connected with mountains, and there is often no human habitation for dozens of miles."

, let them go there to settle down, hehe, horseback riding nationality? I want to see how you can ride a horse in the mountainous area?"

All the girls gasped. They just said that Yu Wenjun was poisonous. This person is even more poisonous than Yu Wenjun! This is to break the roots of the Huns! Among them, Liu Yueru's mood was the most complicated, but it's not that she didn't understand that Yunfeng

It was out of consideration for her and Jin Yuehua's feelings that

The Huns were not completely exterminated. Otherwise, the heinous crimes committed by Liu Cong and Liu Yao from the time Liu Yuan raised his army to Liu Cong and Liu Yao would not be much less than those of Shi Le and Shi Hu's uncle and nephew. It was just that they were spread out over time.

It's not that concentrated, so it's not noticeable.

Then again, the fate of the Huns is much better than that of the Jiehu and Xianbei people. Those two tribes are destined to do hard labor! They have been declared untouchables!

"I hope they can stay safe and live a good life in the future." Liu Yueru soon felt relieved, but she heard Yunfeng's vague urging voice: "Okay, let's eat quickly.

, If you don’t eat anymore, the food will be cold!” I couldn’t help but look up and saw this man grabbing a leg of lamb and crunching it. It was delicious.

Liu Yueru smiled slightly, picked up a piece of eggplant and put it into her mouth to taste it carefully, while the other girls also resumed eating.

Just when all the worries here were gone and everyone was having a good time, Xun Guanniang rushed to Haimen with a hundred female Rakshasa after running around all night and all day long.

Today's Haimen, an earthen city with a radius of 20 miles and a height of three feet, has begun to take shape. It was built on the Rugao Highlands. The population has also increased a lot. In addition to the Wujun tribe captured at the beginning and their family members who were forcibly brought here,

Nearly 60,000 people, together with the Jingzhou navy and more than 50,000 family members, and about 20,000 northern refugees who came to seek refuge one after another, gave a total population of 140,000. Judging from the population base at that time, it could be counted anywhere.

A great county!

The salt fields have begun to reap benefits since last autumn, one month before Yunfeng returned to Shanggui. The output can not only support the needs of the land and sea armies, but the salt people who make a living from it have also received extraordinary rewards.

Haimen only produces salt and nothing else. Therefore, businessmen with a keen sense of smell come to invest and buy properties one after another. They will not let go of the stupid Haimen people who have too much money.

At present, there are many shops in Haimen County, selling food, cloth, fruits, vegetables, and department stores. It can be said that everything in Jiankang can be bought in Haimen. At the same time, there are many shops in the city that are busy being renovated and waiting to open. If not

To compare Haimen, its prosperity has exceeded that of Guangling, a military town also located in Jiangbei, and it seems to have the tendency to become the commercial center of Jiangbei region.

Because it is close to the river and the sea, the people of Haimen naturally sit on the mountain to eat the mountain and the water, and the fishing industry has also prospered. Before the Qingming Festival, saury before the Qingming arrived in Jiankang and could be sold for ten pieces of silver cakes! And the bold fishermen went to the sea.

When it comes to fishing, the small hairtail fish caught in the East China Sea is not much cheaper than the swordfish.

They caught them during the day, raised them in seawater and sailed to Jiankang overnight. When had the people of Jiankang seen this kind of fish that was as long and thin as a thin ribbon? As soon as it landed, it was quickly wiped out! There are also

Small squid with eight tentacles, yellow croaker, etc. are all hot commodities, and the price is naturally very expensive.

The yellow croaker of this era is the authentic yellow croaker, unlike the fake yellow croaker that Yunfeng ate in his previous life. They are called yellow croaker, but they are actually yellow croaker or yellow croaker. Although the appearance is not much different, the price is dozens of times or even higher.

Hundreds of times!

Due to the prosperity of commerce and fishing, Haimen now has three wharves. One is dedicated for business travel and is located in the upper reaches of the river. The middle one is the Haimen Water Village. The one close to the sea is naturally the fishing port.

Haimen's rapid development will naturally attract the covetousness of surrounding forces, especially the Sima family. They are beating their chests and regretting it. Who would have thought that a piece of saline-alkali land at the time would actually contain a huge amount of wealth?
