At the newly built city gate of "Bohai City", the leader of Su Wei, the governor Da Zuorong and the leaders of various ethnic groups had already been here to greet Marshal Xu.
When everyone met, Da Zuorong led everyone to bow and salute.
"I'll wait to see the Grand Marshal!"
"No courtesy! Leaders, please lead the way. Let's go into the city now."
After Qin Wenyuan finished speaking, he and Da Zuorong rode together and arrived at the Governor's Mansion in "Bohai City". Everyone followed him and filed into the Yamen.
In the yamen meeting hall, the leader of the Suwei tribe, Da Zuorong, led the leaders of the Wuluohu tribe, the Heishui tribe, the Tieli tribe, and the Yulou tribe were sitting on the left. The Xishi Wei tribe, Nebei branch, and Shan
In the north, the leader of the Lotan tribe, the Khitan Princess Caixia, and the master shaman are sitting on the right side.
Qin Wenyuan sat in the main seat on the steps of the meeting hall. After the maid of the Governor's Mansion served tea and fruits, everyone drank tea and exchanged greetings. Xu Tian spread his hands to express silence.
"Today all the leaders and distinguished guests from all ethnic groups in the Northeast have gathered together. I believe that you all have the intention to jointly fight for the overall development of the Northeast."
"We have this intention, and we hope that Marshal Qin will not hesitate to teach us about the development of the Northeast and how our people should behave."
"Can Marshal Qin teach the farming, water conservancy, handicraft and other technologies currently practiced in western Liaoning to our tribe?"
"Can the Commander-in-Chief allow me and other members of the clan to go to the Liaoxi Church to learn Han culture?"
"..."
Facing the questions from many leaders one after another, Qin Wenyuan waved his hand to signal silence and started talking.
"Now that Bohai City has been built, the Mohe tribes of Suwei and Heishui tribes and the Mohe tribe of Wuluohu tribe, Tieli tribe and Yulou tribe have been integrated into the Liao military and political integration. The development of their military and people's livelihood should adhere to the strategy of unifying the Liao region.
, gradually improving the single livelihood model of the Mohe people such as hunting and gathering ginseng. As a large number of officials who know various livelihood skills enter the government here, the improvement of people's livelihood in Bohai City is just around the corner, and all ethnic groups in the Northeast should stop fighting and devote themselves to the recuperation of the people.
The cooperative situation must not be fought over territory, resources or historical hatred. To put it bluntly, it is a problem for your tribe and other tribes to protect themselves with little fighting power. Why bother hurting each other? Why not let go of each other's prejudices and work together.
To fight against the overall development of Northeast China.”
"That's what I wanted to do when I went to Bohai City this time. I wonder if the Generalissimo has a strategy for developing the Northeast and how to make all ethnic groups in the Northeast live in harmony."
"This matter is easy to handle. Since you are all willing to swear submission to Xu's rule, Qin will naturally spare no effort to ensure that all tribes in the Northeast have the same development opportunities."
Qin Wenyuan's words made the leaders of the Wei tribe of the West Chamber, the Nebei branch, the Shanbei branch, and the Luotan tribe all stood up and spoke respectfully.
"We are all willing to swear to surrender to Marshal Qin and let him drive us. We also hope that the Marshal's clever plan will save our people from the fire and water."
"Everyone, please sit down and listen to what I have to say slowly."
Seeing the leaders taking their seats again, Qin Wenyuan began to speak slowly again.
"Since you are willing to take Qin as the leader, Qin will simply say that I want your tribe to set up the Heishui County Governor's Office in the area on both sides of the Jianhe River. You and other tribes will elect the governor on your own, and the Yamen governor will be rotated.
system, elections are held once every three years. Those who have achieved outstanding political achievements can be re-elected, and the yamen organization can set up a group of elders. Each ministry appoints a highly respected clan member to participate and be responsible for supervising the implementation of the yamen's military affairs. Officials at all levels in the yamen except
Except for the scholars in your clan who are selected to take up posts, the rest will be transferred by this commander. What do you think?"
The leaders of the Wei Department of the West, Nebei Branch, Shanbei District, and Luotan Department felt that Xu Tian's method was fair and feasible, so they resigned and chose another room to discuss the matter of electing the first governor, and waited for the candidates for the elders and the people of the clan to be elected officials.
We will discuss it later.
After the leaders left happily, the leader of the Heishui Mohe tribe, Jia Guda, stood up to report.
"Generalissimo, my tribe found black oil in the uninhabited wilderness of the Funi River Valley. I don't know what the use of the filth is, Generalissimo."
"Haha! Chief Jiaguda doesn't know how useful this thing is, but you have organized some clever people in the tribe, and when I teach you how to use it, you can also increase some money income for the tribe and solve part of the labor force.
"
"Jiagu Dadai clan members thank the commander, and will go back to organize the clan members."
Jia Guda was a generous man. When he heard that his tribe could get such an opportunity, he was so excited that he jumped away.
Then in the meeting hall, he and Da Zuorong and others talked about the development strategy of "Bohai City". Qin Wenyuan signaled Da Zuorong and others to retreat and started talking with Khitan Princess Caixia and the shaman master.
But I saw this guy smiling and talking to the princess and the shaman master.
"Tell me! How does Prince Ku Ge want me to help the Khitan!"
Master Shaman saw Qin Wenyuan's indifferent kingly demeanor, and secretly thought that this son had already become powerful in the northeast of Liaoning. He was afraid that the Tang Dynasty could not control him now. In addition, after hearing and seeing his strategy for dealing with the Northeast, he couldn't help but think.
I am grateful for the wise decision of the Khitan people to submit to this son that day.
"Commander! I think the Khitan people are mainly herding people. The tribesmen spread out in the northwest desert to watch the sky and eat. The prince asked the princess and the old man to pay homage to the commander. The reason is that he wanted to ask the commander to give guidance to the Khitan tribe to improve the tribe's single livelihood model.
, I wonder if the commander-in-chief can help my people."
"This is why the master looked at Jinshan and cried for poverty. He thought that in addition to the vast land, the Khitan people are also rich in cattle and sheep fur. The series of workshops derived from the breeding industry can solve the livelihood of many people besides herding. As long as they master the corresponding technology, the Khitan people are rich in cattle and sheep fur.
Are we still afraid that we won’t have the chance to develop?”
Seeing that Qin Wenyuan spoke so easily, but what he said seemed to make people understand but not understand, Caixia couldn't help frowning.
"What is a workshop derived from the breeding industry, and what does it mean?"
Master Shaman also looked at Qin Wenyuan with a confused look on his face, his eyes filled with anticipation for this evil disciple of the Khitan benefactor, Master Zhiren...
Seeing the expectant expressions on the faces of Princess Caixia and Master Shaman, Qin Wenyuan smiled on his face and came to see them one by one as if they were treasures from his family.
"The so-called breeding industry means that in addition to the original grazing method, livestock are raised in captivity. While increasing the number of livestock and cultivating fine varieties, it develops the feed industry, fur industry, planting industry, trade industry, etc., thereby reducing some of the mobile herdsmen and making them in a fixed position.
Doesn’t this reduce the Khitan people’s ability to work and make a living in other places where they can cope with various disasters?”
Listening to Qin Wenyuan's few words, he was deeply impressed by the fact that the Khitan people's single herding has been broken down into many industrial models. The shaman master couldn't help but pay homage to Qin Wenyuan.
"The great marshal is the savior of the Khitan tribe given to us by the Immortal God. Can you give us and other tribesmen the opportunity to learn various skills?"
"Master Shaman doesn't need to be too polite. Let's do it this way. When I'm done with my work here, I'll order various craftsmen from Licheng, Qizhou, and set up a school in Longcheng to make disciples of Khitan, Mohe, Shiwei and other ethnic groups.
There are opportunities to learn a variety of skills.”
After Qin Wenyuan finished speaking, Princess Caixia started talking from the side.
"Then what should the Khitan people do now? If they wait until the children of the tribe start to develop their industries, wouldn't it mean that our tribe will fall behind other tribes? Marshal Xu must come up with a good idea on how to make the Khitan people prosper in a short period of time."
There can be changes.”
"Are all princesses so impatient? You have to eat one meal at a time and do things step by step. Even if you want me to make an idea, you have to let people think about it, right?"
"Then you think about it now, and I will accompany you to think about it!"
Princess Caixia's unruly and domineering behavior made Qin Wenyuan very interesting. Damn it, you really don't want to talk to me!
When the master shaman saw the princess talking so casually to Qin Wenyuan, he couldn't help wiping his beard, smiling and thinking to himself.
"This time the princess came to see this boy. It seems he has some skills. How wonderful! How wonderful!"
Qin Wenyuan pondered for a while, and then spoke to the unruly princess and the shaman master.
"I think that the Khitan can open a grassland market not far from the king's tent in a place where tribesmen gather, and develop trade with the Central Plains first to obtain various daily necessities. Later, I will come up with the idea of building a wool spinning workshop in this market so that the herdsmen can collect
The large amount of fur is digested nearby. This task will be handed over to the princess. When they return to Dragon City, the shaman master and the princess can take a look at the construction model of the Dragon City Market. At that time, I will ask the officials who participated in the construction of the market to assist you.
how?"
"I will only obey the Marshal's orders."
"Marshal, can you please wait for a while and accompany me to Khitan for a field trip?"
Hearing the princess's rude request, the shaman master felt a little uneasy for a moment, fearing that Qin Wenyuan would be dissatisfied because of this. He secretly took a peek at Qin Wenyuan's face, but saw that this guy was looking at the princess with a half-smile on his face.
Qin Wenyuan looked at the princess with a warm smile, but he couldn't help but think to himself.
"Aren't you this wild girl afraid that I will take you in?"
Now that this guy had such thoughts in his mind, he couldn't help but have some thoughts in his heart. He thought that after everything was settled in "Bohai City", he could go back to "Dragon City" and wait for a while before leaving the "Song Desert" place.
Go outside "Gubeikou" to see the area under the jurisdiction of the Khitan people.
…
Two days later, the leaders of the Xishiwei tribe, the Nebei branch, the northern part of the mountain, and the Luotan tribe, accompanied by Governor Da Zuorong, asked to see Xu Tian again. However, because several leaders reached an agreement after discussion, the leader of the Xishiwei tribe
Mo Hedu was the first governor of "Blackwater County" and established the idea of sending elders from each tribe to form military and political yamen under the direct jurisdiction of the "Generalissimo" government.
Qin Wenyuan thought it was feasible, so he told the leaders of the tribes.
"Since you and others agreed to establish Heishui County in the Jianhe River Basin, I will talk about the benefits of setting up a county and city. I hope that your tribe initially relied on the Turkic forces. After the Turks were destroyed by the Tang Dynasty and weakened, because of you
The tribes are not a single ethnic community, and the ethnic factors from multiple sources make them unwilling to give in to each other. Each of them fights endlessly for the interests of their own tribe, making it difficult for the people to survive, let alone develop."
Qin Wenyuan's words are exactly talking about the pain points of the Wei tribe of the West, the Nebei branch, the northern part of the mountain, and the Luotan tribe. Since they broke away from the Turkic rule, these tribes have been doing their own things and do not agree with each other. They often attack each other because of trivial matters.
, there has been a lot of internal friction in these years, and there is no winner.
Seeing that all the leaders looked ashamed, Qin Wenyuan continued to speak.
"I think your tribe has relied on nomadic herding, hunting, and fishing as the main means of livelihood for the tribe since its inception. How can its low productivity keep the tribesmen fed and clothed? It is a pity that a large area of vast and fertile land has been lost. After the establishment of Heishui County, my commander
In order to enable your tribe to vigorously develop agriculture, winemaking and pig and cattle raising industries, in view of the fact that your tribe has few iron tools and is not good at farming, after I transfer a large number of officials and craftsmen to Heishui County, we will measure
We can use the land to forge agricultural tools and teach you and other tribesmen how to use animal power to cultivate fields and other skills. At that time, each tribe can involve a large number of tribesmen in various livelihoods based on farming, so the prosperity of the Northeast is just around the corner!"
When Qin Wenyuan finished speaking, all the leaders had tears in their eyes, and they all knelt on the ground and shouted loudly.
"We are willing to serve as the marshal as the king of the Northeast and govern the tribes. From now on, we should look up to the prince and follow him to the death!"
Da Zuorong, the governor of "Bohai City", felt his heart tremble when he saw the leaders of the northeastern ministries calling Qin Wenyuan like this. He led the leaders of the governor's office to kneel down and shouted loudly.
The Suwei tribe, the Wuluohu tribe, the Heishui tribe, the Tieli tribe, and the Yulou tribe are willing to accept the commander-in-chief as the king of the Northeast. We will follow him to the death!
Qin Wenyuan said loudly with a smile on his face.
"Come on, leaders, Xu will be crowned king at a later date. At present, we should focus on the development and construction of Bohai City and Heishui County. After the infrastructure between the cities is integrated with Western Liaoning and Eastern Liaoning,
In order to make transportation accessible in all directions and facilitate the smooth development of commerce and trade among all ethnic groups, I will revoke the title of Liao and establish the Northeastern Road of the Tang Dynasty to control the military and administration of the northeastern jurisdiction. The marshal's residence will be reported to the imperial court and the name will be changed to Longcheng Palace."
After Qin Wenyuan said these words, he suddenly felt a warm sun rising in his Dantian, but he didn't know that the "Pangu Heart Sutra" benefited most from the nourishment of the power of faith. At this time, the "Tao tree" in the Dantian was swaying, and silk
Threads infiltrate into the meridians.
But seeing the majestic and dignified nobility of an emperor appearing on this man's face, the leaders of the Dudu Mansion were shocked. They had also seen Li Shimin, Jieli Khan, Zhenzhu Khan, Ku
Prince Ge and many other leaders of emperors, generals, and ministers have never seen such a heroic appearance like Xu Tian, who is like a god and is untainted by dust, and a pious heart to worship Xu Tian suddenly arose in his mind.
"We will pay our respects to the King of Dragon City. The King of Dragon City is a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"
Amidst the devout shouts of respect, golden light seemed to emerge around Qin Wenyuan. The statue of the Taoist ancestor in the main hall of the Taoist temple under construction in Liaocheng Prefecture was already shining with golden light, making Master Zhiren, Xuanji Laodao and other Taoist sects waiting here for the completion of the Taoist temple.
The disciple was greatly surprised, and after counting with his fingers, he knew the cause and effect. He was delighted that the leader had gained the power of faith.
Qin Wenyuan led the group to stay in "Bohai City" for more than ten days. In the uninhabited wilderness of the Funi River Valley, after seeing the bare oil field surrounded by poplar forests, he pointed to a spot covered with wild grass a few hundred meters away.
In the mountains, he said to Jiaguda, the leader of the Blackwater Mohe who was traveling with him, and many other tribesmen.
"This oil field is of great use to me. You and other tribesmen can flatten all the mountainous land. At that time, I will have craftsmen and thousands of soldiers stationed here and build facilities for refining crude oil."
"Jia Guda would like to obey the prince's instructions. I also hope that the prince will allow my people to study with the craftsmen who come here."
