Chapter 2933 Its rare to have a lover, love money more than life
Li Dian sat on the horse, and after a long time he looked away from the blackened fields.
Zhuang He in these acres is almost mature. It should have ushered in its own glory, but it was artificially destroyed.
It was too late to put out the fire.
In this kind of weather, it is impossible to put out the fire.
Fortunately, these farmlands were surrounded by ridges, which somewhat limited the spread of the fire. In addition, some people discovered that they were fighting with those who set fires and raised a warning, so they were not destroyed in large areas.
"The men who were guarding the fields were all killed..."
Bodies were lined up on the ground.
It's like a burnt Zhuanghe, in dilapidated condition.
As long as a person is alive, he has infinite possibilities.
When a person dies, he is dead, leaving only the possibility of returning to dust and returning to dust.
Some corpses were thrown into the fields and had been turned into charcoal together with Zhuang He. The ones placed in front of Li Dian were relatively complete corpses.
The remaining black smoke filled the surroundings, like the shady curtain of war spreading.
Li Dian looked towards the forest and became angry. In front of the local officials and people who came in a hurry, Li Dian shouted angrily, his voice shocking the whole field. He seemed to be so furious that he could not control himself...
"This is treason!" Li Dian was furious, "If you destroy our food and grass, you will be punished by death!"
The local officials and the country people looked at each other in confusion.
The word "rebellion" should never be used lightly. Once used, it is like some legendary swords. It will not be sheathed until it is stained with enough blood...
Now it is obvious that Tian Mu did not spontaneously combust. At least the corpses who were originally guarding Tian Mu could not have stabbed themselves in the back and then "committed suicide". So there is no doubt that someone is sabotaging it.
"Those who died because of obstruction and rebellion will be compensated according to the number of those killed in battle!" Li Dian was still angry, and the muscles on his face were beating, "Tell their families that I will kill the murderer."
Cut off the head to comfort the nine springs!"
Local officials were obedient.
Soon the scouts who had dispersed came back to report that they had found some traces. They quickly combined the situation at the scene and deduced that it was the barbarians in the mountain, and it was possible that it was the Di and the Taoists who did it...
Li Dian immediately ordered someone to "invite" Pu's Di people.
When Pu came, everyone was confused.
At this time, Li Dian had already asked his soldiers to start building temporary barracks in the nearby area, and began to arrange fixed sentries and patrolling cavalry. Groups of soldiers patrolled the mountains and forests, monitoring all the movements around them, looking murderous.
"General! This matter has nothing to do with me! I was wronged, wronged!" As soon as Pu's Diren King saw Li Dian, he hurriedly rushed forward and fell to the ground, "I swear to the Di God!"
It was definitely not done by me!』
"Di God? Swear?" Li Dian sneered, "Then did your Di God say who did it?"
"This..." Pu's Diren King naturally didn't know. Although he had some guesses, how could he say it so easily, so he pretended to be stupid, "This... how could this possibly know... the people on the mountain?"
So many, coming and going..."
"Don't your Dishen have one more eye than an ordinary person?" Li Dian sneered, "You have one more eye and you can't see, so what do you do with the extra eyeball? Just dig it out! I tell you.
You, the person who came to attack, smell like fish! Who do you think it could be?!』
The Di people's god lives in the water and has three eyes. Therefore, the Di people also like to peel off the skin of fish and stick it on their bodies as decoration to show that they are close to the god. Over time,
Di people have a fishy smell.
Later, it was said that Erlang God was the god of Di people. He had three eyes, raised dogs, and liked to fish with a harpoon. Then the harpoon evolved into a three-pointed two-edged knife...
Although Mr. Pu said that he had mainly settled down and no longer lived after aquatic plants and no longer wore fish skins on his body, he was still aware of this habit. Li Dian said it smelled fishy.
, my heart skipped a beat.
Mr. Pu still doesn't know what Erlang Shen is, but the habit of sticking fish skins on the body is not shared by the Tibetan people and the Yi people, so it is difficult to find an excuse.
"Before, there were Yang Wanwan and Wang Gui, but now..." Li Dian looked at Pu, as if staring at a prey, examining the most suitable place to strike, "Is this what you want to repay Yu?"
My good intentions are thrown away as if they were sand and gravel! The crops that my people have worked so hard to plant are just burned at will!"
Pu fell to his knees with a thud, "General! We are good people too! You know, there are good and bad people in Di. People who can do such things must be bad. If the general puts the blame on us,
,Wouldn’t that make the bad guys happier? The general is aware of this!』
"How can I know that you are good? Others are bad?" Li Dian said with narrowed eyes.
"This... Yang Wanwan and Wang Gui are bad! We are good!" Mrs. Pu subconsciously wanted to throw all the blame on Yang Wanwan and Wang Gui.
Anyway, it is impossible for Yang Wanwan and Wang Gui to come forward to defend themselves now, so what's the problem if they take two or three more blames?
Li Dian sneered. Yang Wanwan and Wang Gui were hiding in the mountains and forests to the south and east of Hanzhong, and had little connection with the Qinling Mountains to the north. However, Li Dian did not want to expose Pu's lies, but
Taking advantage of the situation, he said: "Are you telling the truth?"
"Uh, this, this...of course it's true!" Mrs. Pu swallowed and nodded in response.
Now that things have happened, it is naturally impossible for Pu's Di Renwang to change his words and say, "General, I am joking with you. Do you think this joke is funny..."
"Very good, you send someone to summon the kings of the Di people, the kings of the Yi people, and the kings of the Yi people. In fifteen days, they will gather in Nanzheng to discuss the matter of clearing out the rebels!" Li Dian said with a sneer, "If you don't come,
’s... Haha, don’t say that this general didn’t pay homage first and then send troops!”
Mrs. Pu didn't bother to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead and kept saying yes. She just wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but was stopped by Li Dian, "Where are you going?"
"I...I am, no, General, are you going to inform..." Pu pointed outside the barracks, as if a prisoner about to be paroled was stopped again, with a tangled face, "I'm going to inform..."
…』
"Why are you going to inform? Are you the only one in your tribe? Then why do you call yourself King of Di Ren, forget the King of Errands!" Li Dian waved his hand, "Let your subordinates go to inform! You stay here! We want to
Let’s see how much can be harvested from these unburnt crops!”
Although most of the land opened up in Zhuanghe was burned, some still survived because someone warned them. Li Dian wanted the Pu family to be a witness to understand how productive these barbarians around Hanzhong are now.
They used this as a way to motivate these Hu people to change their production and living habits, so that these Hu people could move from the mountains and forests to farming.
Carrots and sticks, neither one can be missing.
Pu's family may be the earliest donkey.
"It's just a party?" King Pu's Di people were not at ease. What if all the kings came and Li Dian made a mess? The prefects and generals of the Han Dynasty did this often.
They said it was a peace talk, and then they suddenly started to kill all the Hu men who participated in the talks, and then plundered the women and used them as slaves...
Li Dian seemed to understand Pu's worries, so he said: "You can also send representatives...but they must be representatives who can make the decision! What resolutions will be discussed at the meeting must be determined on the spot! Don't say anything else then.
I also want to ask if I can’t make the decision! I’ve said the ugly things before. If such a situation really occurs, it means deliberately making things difficult for everyone! When we meet with swords and guns in the end, don’t blame heaven and earth! 』
Pu wiped the sweat from his head, "That's right, that's right, the general is right, he's right..."
The fact that the king does not need to come in person shows that Li Dian has already taken a step back, and it also proves that Li Dian is not too murderous towards them, the barbarian kings, and really wants to discuss and solve some problems together, so as the notifier
The Diren King of the Pu family also began to think about it in his mind. After all, the power of notification was in his hands. Who to notify and how to notify seemed to be something he could do in a small way, such as asking Liang Diren...
When the Diren King of the Pu family thought of this, he suddenly became excited and patted his chest to express that he could inform Li Dian on behalf of Li Dian, so that Li Dian could rest assured.
Li Dian nodded slightly. He could pretend not to know if Pu made some small moves. After all, now he needed to convey the decree to a farther place, and he had to take the first step. As for whether Pu was in place or in the stomach
, then it’s not too late to prepare it slowly later.
Although the sudden appearance of Wang Kai, a poor lobbyist, and what happened here in Tian Mu made Li Dian feel a little shadowy, his trust in Qiusi Feiqian and his judgment of the general trend of the world still made Li Dian
Dian firmly stood on the side of Chang'an and worked hard to solve the various problems that appeared in front of him.
In the autumn of the eighth year of Taixing, in Nanzheng, Hanzhong, what Li Dian didn't know was that he inadvertently took this opportunity to initiate the first large-scale consultative meeting of Hu representatives. Of course, this was just the beginning.
, and the subsequent changes are what really lead to the subsequent direction of the correct path for government decrees to reach the countryside...
……━((*′д｀)yao(′д｀*))━!!!!……
"What?"
Shen Yi could hardly believe her ears.
"Isn't Li Mancheng telling lies with his eyes open?!" Shen Yi slapped her palm on the table, making a clanging sound, "It was clearly done by people from Qinling, but why did you say it was Yang Wanwan and Wang Gui?"
!This is what Liang Diren did! I don’t believe he doesn’t know!』
To choose Liang Di people, one is that Liang Di people are stupid enough, and the other is that Liang Di people are all in the Qinling Mountains. Once Li Dian really sends troops to wipe out, there will be few soldiers and no one can be captured. If there are more soldiers, the same will happen.
No one can be caught.
The Qinling Mountains are so big that if Liang people really want to hide their cats, they can hide them for ten to eight years!
As long as Li Dian is a little careless and starts the fight easily, Shen will immediately follow, lift Li Dian up high, and lift him to the point where even if he wants to step down, he can't find a ladder.
At that time, Li Dian could only admit defeat or hold on bravely. Regardless of whether he admitted defeat or held on, the final result would be that the troops, money and food in Hanzhong would be wasted needlessly, and it would also cause Li Dian to lose power in other areas.
The weakening of control has caused more people’s livelihood problems...
And all of this has obviously been repaired and paved with stone slabs, but Li Dian doesn't want to take this road!
How can this be done?
"Li Mancheng is full of lies! He lies!" Shen Yi patted the table, "How could he lie?!"
A liar hates when others lie to him.
A person who conspires most hates other people's conspiracies against him.
Shen Yi felt that Li Dian was simply shameless and obscene. How could he lie so openly?
"Expose him!" Shen Yi even lost part of her reason because of her anger, "I want to expose this guy's lies!"
Shen Dan was silent for a while and then said: "No."
"Why?!" Shen Yi was still immersed in anger, but after seeing his brother's serious face, he calmed down a bit and thought for a while, "I understand... I was wrong... But I can't let Li Mancheng be like this."
Give..."
Shen Dan nodded, and then changed the topic to another direction, "I heard... that a person was detained in Nanzheng Prison... It is said that he is a fellow villager of Li Mancheng... who is crying out for injustice and mourning all day long...
…』
"Fellow fellow?" Shen Yi's eyes flickered.
Everyone knows that Li Dian’s hometown is not in Hanzhong or Guanxi, but in Shandong. The synonym of Li Dian’s hometown naturally represents the people of Shandong...
"So..." Shen Yi frowned and said, "This is a lobbyist, and then Li Mancheng took it off to show his loyalty?"
Shen Dan nodded, then smiled, "If this lobbyist is really from Shandong...do you know what this means?"
Shen Yi suddenly raised her eyebrows, "Qiaoqi is in trouble!"
You must know that almost all of the Hussars are generals with foreign surnames, or they are subordinate generals!
And once something goes wrong with one of them, it will inevitably trigger a series of problems!
In other words, there is no need to really have a problem at all. As long as the ideas of the people above and below the Qiusi have wavered and they think there may be a problem, then there will definitely be a problem...
There are sniffers on the hussar, those guys who look like hyenas, wouldn’t they be excited if they smelled it?
"In that case, we just need to spread some rumors... By the way! Not long ago, didn't a Zhang from Dali Temple come to Hanzhong? Do you want... hahaha..." Shen Yi smiled broadly, as if it was because he could do it when he arrived. The key to lying wantonly is to mobilize the nerves in your body that you don’t know and get excited.
Shen Dan shook his head and said with a smile: "Wrong, this time, since Shandong has taken action... we'd better not get involved for the time being... We should be going to Jingxiang now... The land of Shangyong, we We should shrink the overall situation and store grain and grass to prepare for emergencies... Alas, it's a pity that the Zhengxi coins are too difficult to imitate..."
The first generation of Zhengxi coins was already the embodiment of industrial processing and manufacturing technology. Stamping and casting are two completely different concepts. In the coin-making workshop where the process is strictly confidential, how can the coins have neat jagged edges? This is a problem that the Shen brothers cannot solve at the moment.
Of course, it is impossible for Feiqian's current stamping machine tools to have as strong and high-quality alloy steel as those of later generations. However, the diligent and intelligent craftsmen of the Han Dynasty, because of their familiarity with bronze craftsmanship, cleverly took advantage of the fact that bronze softens at a lower temperature than steel. The melting point of alloy-doped bronze is lower than that of pure copper, so when the copper softens, it can be easily stamped.
It just consumes a lot of fuel, but these days only Feiqian is using coal on a large scale in industry, so it is almost equivalent to unlimited fuel...
And people like Shangyong Shen and others can't figure out this aspect of the craftsmanship, so they can't imitate Zhengxi coins on a large scale, let alone the more refined and patterned Hussar coins in the later period. .
This made old-school gentry families like the Shen family hate the Zhengxi money very much because they were unable to dissolve the copperware they had stored on a large scale and quickly realize it.
Thinking of this matter, Shen Yi couldn't help but sigh deeply.
Just like what a pretender in later generations said, he has no interest in money. To a certain extent, this is true. After reaching a certain level of wealth, money will be "useless" to him personally, because he I don’t even calculate how much money I use every day, and how much I spend on food and clothing in a month. Basically, I have lost the concept of using money, and more importantly, I am converting money into assets, including various The means of life and production are used to deprive and appropriate more people’s labor surplus value.
Because of the small-scale peasant economic system of ancient feudal society, the total amount of copper coins circulating in a certain area was actually very small. Therefore, it was very convenient for local wealthy families, big families, etc. to use copper coins, grain, and cloth to exchange each other. , large-scale control of money input and triggering small-scale inflation and deflation, in order to harvest the wealth of ordinary people.
Because ordinary people in the feudal era could only save a small amount of money every day, and the more they saved, the more they were harvested by this method. They saved money for a lifetime, and then were harvested for a lifetime. This is why those who preach every day about how good the small farmer economy is
The guy's ultimate true purpose.
Shen hated Fei Qian, and what he hated was Fei Qian's methods.
I hate the new farmland system, I hate the new production workshops, I hate that the small-scale peasant economic system that Fei Qian has gradually broken down cannot be sustained...
As long as the Shandong gentry can freely exploit small farmers and tenants, then these Shanxi gentry will be full of jealousy and hatred, and they will never care about Shunping in their hearts. The more self-isolated and powerful the gentry are, the more they will feel the consequences brought by Fei Qian.
These changes are uncomfortable. They want to return to the original economic system, want to return to the days when local governments had the final say, and want to become a powerful local force that can transcend black and white, so they work tirelessly and sell everything they can.
Sell everything, including their own souls.
Shen quickly sent people to Jingxiang to contact Cao Jun...
Anyway, Shangyong is right next door to Xiangyang, although this next door is somewhat far away.
