Chapter 260 Liu Jian wants to put me on the stove to grill?
After discussing about drying salt, Liu Jian, Liu Yu, and Liu Bei discussed another matter.
That is about the development of the textile industry in Qingzhou.
Throughout the Han Dynasty, mulberry trees and silkworms were raised on a large scale, and there were only two states with the potential to develop the textile industry, namely Yizhou and Qingzhou.
Yizhou is undoubtedly the birthplace of Shu Brocade.
With Chengdu as the center, the brocade weaving industry in Sichuan is flourishing, so that "machine and machine are harmonious", Shu brocade weaving skills are becoming more and more proficient, and it is famous for its exquisite workmanship and various patterns.
During the historical period of the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, grain and cloth were "stronger" than traditional metal currencies.
As a high-grade silk fabric during the Three Kingdoms period in history, Shu brocade was not only popular among the bigwigs in Cao Wei and Sun Wu, it could also settle trade, pay "wages", and was suitable for various consumption occasions.
In recent years, with the instability of the current situation, the dominant position of copper coins in the commodity economy has also been severely challenged. A large number of "cut wheel" coins have appeared on the market, that is, the outline of the five-baht coin has been cut off to make it more valuable.
Sub-prime money is a dangerous signal for the overall currency market.
Liu Jian believed that as the separatist situation among the princes became more serious, the situation would only get worse.
As warlords fight each other more and more fiercely, the purchasing power of metal currency will become weaker and weaker.
Therefore, in the coming days, the purchasing power of bulk commodities among states and counties will become particularly important.
Historically, the Shu brocade in Yizhou can be said to be the hard currency between the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu!
However, although Shu brocade was extremely famous in the Han Dynasty, it does not mean that Yizhou's textile industry was the best in the world.
Qingzhou is also a big silkworm state, and its textile industry was among the best in the Han Dynasty.
Especially the Qi embroidery of Qingzhou also has a very high reputation in Han Dynasty.
Before most people had a timely understanding of the purchasing power of money in the future, Liu Jian planned to seize the opportunity and asked Liu Yu to develop the textile industry in Linzi, recruit world-famous brocade craftsmen, and take advantage of Qingzhou's sericulture capital.
Advantages enable the local textile industry to further develop.
Strive to replace the textile industry status of Yizhou and Xiangyi as quickly as possible and lead the world.
Before the purchasing power of currency collapses, use Qingzhou's hard currency to monopolize the national brocade industry.
Of course, the Jizhou Science Agency has been researching new looms. Once the research is successful, it will be put into mass production. At that time, Liu Jian will set up a government-run textile factory in Hebei, while focusing on both high efficiency and high-quality products.
A route to use Hebei’s textiles to harvest wealth within and outside the country!
Of course, new looms cannot be made just by making them.
Not to mention anything else, just the shuttle part alone is enough to make Hebei's senior craftsmen very troubled.
But you are not afraid of being late for a good meal. As long as you can be one step ahead, you will be able to lead the trend of the times. Liu Jian is not in a hurry.
After listening to Liu Jian's description, Liu Yu was deeply moved.
He is also a rare economic master in this era. There are some things that he had never thought of before, but as long as Liu Jian explained them to him, Liu Yu could understand them clearly.
He immediately decided to set an example and vigorously develop the textile industry in addition to salt and papermaking.
He first planted 800 mulberry trees on his own land as an example to show his determination as a pastor in Qingzhou to develop the textile industry and to encourage mulberry planting.
Liu Jian was very happy to see Liu Yu listening to the advice.
"If Great Sima can do this, Qingzhou will definitely prosper in the future! Papermaking, sea salt, and textiles will become the three carriages of Qingzhou's economic prosperity. No one can stop it, and no one can stop it!"
…
…
Liu Jian's envoys arrived in Luoyang in two groups to meet Dong Zhuo.
The first wave was to put forward reform suggestions to Dong Zhuo.
Liu Jian roughly put forward two points in his reform proposals.
One is for the reform of the tax system and the corvee system, and the other is for the reform of the inspection and examination system. The contents are quite detailed, and specific methods and measures are also listed.
Even Dong Zhuo, after seeing these two suggestions, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat and was speechless, not knowing what to do.
The first is the tax system reform. The content is probably to ask Dong Zhuo to try to merge the corvee, field tax, and capitation tax, and collect various taxes together. At the same time, the labor tax borne by the small households in the past will be spread into the acres of land, and the land grain will be used.
apportionment.
In addition, Liu Jian also listed specific steps, including clearing land, expanding the expropriation area, and unifying taxes and levies. In addition, the collection of taxes and levies was no longer handled by the head of the township, but was directly levied by local officials.
As for the second article, Dong Zhuo just glanced at the scroll about the reform of the police and examination, and simply threw it aside.
"Does this kid want to throw me on the fire and roast him?"
Dong Zhuo frowned and complained to Li Ru dissatisfiedly.
Li Ru opened the two slips sent by Liu Jian and read them respectively. He was sweating coldly after reading them and didn't know what to say.
When I was young, I heard him say slowly: "Xiang Guo, although what Liu Jianzhi said was intended to harm the Xiang Guo, I have to admit that what he was thinking was indeed far from ordinary. These two reform methods are all aimed at the key points.
!If it can really be done, then Xiang Guo can be called the first person in the history!"
"That has to be done!" Dong Zhuo looked a little angry: "Wenyou, please take a closer look at my face!"
Li Ru looked Dong Zhuo up and down in confusion: "What did the Prime Minister want me to see?"
"Do you think I look like a stupid ass?"
Li Ru was stunned when he heard this, and then couldn't help laughing.
"It doesn't look like it! Liu Jian wants to take advantage of the Prime Minister, but he is still far behind!"
Dong Zhuo snorted and said: "I want to rule those famous families and the ministers of the court, but I can't completely break up with them. I will beat them when they should be beaten, and they should be used when they should be used.
Use it! You can’t do it all to death!”
"Yes, yes, that's what Xiangguo said!"
"Have all those great Confucian scholars and celebrities who were recruited by me arrived in Beijing?"
Li Ru hesitated slightly when he heard the words and said: "Now, only a few people including Cai Yong, Han Fu, Kong Niao and others have been ordered to arrive in Beijing, and the rest have not yet arrived..."
"If you give me another order to urge me, I will keep urging you. Not only will the Prime Minister's Office issue an order to urge me, but Your Majesty will also issue an edict to urge me. Do you understand?"
"Here!"
In the past few days, Dong Zhuo felt that he had almost done enough to coerce the officials and nobles of the DPRK, and it was time to win over them.
Although Dong Zhuo is currently following the path of "supporting the big man" and "alliance with the emperor and the queen mother", no matter how he unites, he must have capable people to help him... The capable people mentioned here are not those who help him kill people and fight.
Liangzhou people, but nobles who can govern the country and make the country run normally.
Previously, Zhang Jiao's letter was thrown in the court to intimidate the noble ministers, and he successfully established the prime minister, established the Thirteen Cao Cao, took over the local power of the Shi Changshi, and seized all the power in the court. Then he let the Grand Sima Liu
Yu became the Duke, which weakened the influence of Taifu Yuan Wei in the world. Recently, he also made Yang Biao the Sikong, and Yuan Ji himself was arranged to return to the position of Taifu.
As for the Situ position vacated by Yuan Ji, Dong Zhuo arranged for it to be given to Huang Wan.
Dong Zhuo had a great time, but now that he had obtained the power and it was time to govern the country, he found that he had no idea where to start.
This is the huge hidden danger behind his control of the Eastern Han Dynasty and his successful speculation.
Therefore, he now began to select celebrities to come to Beijing to establish a new persona for himself, and at the same time began to recruit high-prestige talents as supplements.
As for this job, he handed it over to Zhou Ao and Zheng Tai and asked them to select for him.
The people selected by Dong Zhuo included Xun Shuang, Cai Yong, He Yong and other famous Confucian scholars, as well as Zhang Miao, Zhang Zi, Liu Dai, Wang Fen, Kong Yi, Han Fu, Jiao He and others.
In addition to recruiting celebrities and capable people, Dong Zhuo also began to give sweet dates to the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty.
He asked the children of Gongqing's family to replace those lost due to the Luoyang Rebellion, showing his sincerity and sincerity.
Dong Zhuo's meaning is obvious. During this period, everyone has been fighting, making trouble, and having fun. It's time to reconcile, right?
But the problem is that Dong Zhuo's move is in vain. Some people in this world simply cannot reconcile with Dong Zhuo.
Never can.
And if these people don't make peace with Dong Zhuo, then everything Dong Zhuo did to the Guandong nobles will be in vain.
Now, those who have not reconciled with Dong Zhuo include Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Qiao Mao, Wang Kuang, Bao Xin and others.
They had been plotting secretly, ready to give Dong Zhuo a heavy blow at any time, making him unable to stand up.
It's just that right now, they haven't found a suitable opportunity and reason.
