Five years as county magistrate, hundreds of millions of kilograms of grain shocked Li Shimin Chapter 334 Family Meeting, I will provide you with military protection
Chapter 334 Family Meeting, I will provide you with military protection
"Today, I will use Dugu Bo to ascend to the position of the head of the Dugu family, and I will solemnly explain it to everyone present."
"The cost of investing in a road is one-tenth of the cost of building a road, but I guarantee that the money will be recovered in the subsequent tolls, or even make a lot of money, because if a road tolls, it can be collected for fifty years, with a maximum of one hundred
Year, the toll price is determined by the road builder."
"As for the loan to build a community, the loan money needs to be checked on your property to ensure that you can repay the borrowed money. The interest and years need to be discussed on-site at Huaxia Bank, but I can guarantee that as long as the loan is reasonable, the money will be paid.
You can stay out."
Fang Yuan introduced loudly.
Everyone's discussion became even louder.
Thinking about whether we can get our money back in fifty years and one hundred years, etc.
Another family head wanted to ask other questions, but was interrupted by Fang Yuan.
"Today is Dugu Bo's succession to the position of patriarch, so we won't talk more about these topics."
"If you are interested, you can come to me tonight and we will have a meeting to discuss the specific plot."
Fang Yuan chuckled.
Let them think about whether it is worth doing.
Give them some time to save these old foxes from hesitating.
Now with Dugu Bo's cooperation, many aristocratic families will respond after the news spreads.
There are so many aristocratic families in the world, and not all aristocratic families are afraid of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes. When faced with opportunities, there will be people who want to take a chance.
Subsequently, Fang Yuan and Dugu Bo signed a grand contract, reaching an agreement on behalf of the two parties to cooperate with the court in building roads and residential communities.
On this day, the news of the change of patriarch in the Dugu family spread throughout the country.
Not long afterward, it was reported that the original clan leader Dugu Xiongba had died.
For a time, everyone speculated, and many people thought that Dugu Bo killed Dugu Xiongba and became the leader.
Among them, some people said they heard a loud noise coming from Dugushi's house that night.
As a result, some people suspected Fang Yuan who appeared in Luoyang, suspecting that Fang Yuan was bringing the legendary fire gun to support Dugu Bo.
Only the fire gun can intimidate the soldiers of the Dugu family in a short period of time, allowing Dugu Bo to successfully ascend to power.
There are different opinions on this, but there is no accurate answer, almost all are guesses.
This night.
The Dugu Family held a meeting.
The visitors were all from Luoyang’s aristocratic families, there were more than a dozen of them.
Among them, including the Dugu family, there are three first-class families and ten small and medium-sized families.
"You may not know that my promise to Dugu Bo is to make the Dugu family surpass the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes."
Fang Yuan was like a king as soon as he opened his mouth.
Except for Dugu Bo who was calm, everyone else was shocked.
The Five Surnames and Qi Wang are unsurpassable existences in their hearts, and they would rather offend the imperial court than the Five Surnames and Qi Wang.
"You must have heard that the construction of roads and residential communities will not involve the participation of the five surnames and Qiwang."
"Why not let the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes participate? Because they are too powerful. If you let them participate, they will surpass the imperial court."
"And why do I say that participating in building roads and building communities can become an opportunity that transcends five surnames and seven hopes?"
Fang Yuan said slowly.
Looking at the faces of the family heads present, I sighed in my heart.
The five surnames and Qi Wang are the five surnames and Qi Wang, which make the clans all over the world respect and fear them.
"Shilang Fang, how do you say this?"
Many representatives of the family asked why.
Although they are full of fear of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes.
But the desire for family development outweighs the fear.
If you can really make your family develop beyond the five surnames and seven hopes, why can't you try?
"Let Dugu Bo explain this to everyone."
Fang Yuan looked at Dugu Bo and said.
Since Dugu Bo has been promoted to the top, he must be allowed to perform more.
I don’t know what his status is in the hearts of the aristocratic families, but it’s okay to express my feelings.
The eyes of the aristocratic families shifted from Fang Yuan to Dugu Bo.
"This is actually about a very important point, buying land."
Dugu Bo said slowly.
Explain part and all of what Fang Yuan told him before.
After listening to Dugu Bo's words, the eyes of the aristocratic families present all lit up.
Many of their aristocratic families have their own foundations, and the foundations are almost their territory.
In Luoyang City, they are gathered together, but in other places, they are their real main line.
If we go by what Dugu Bo said, then maybe they can or are really likely to surpass the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes.
After all, the land in many places belongs to the imperial court, and it is not a simple matter for them to annex it.
But if there is support from the court and the area is vigorously developed, then the land will be valuable.
They understand both valuable land and barren land, and how important valuable land is.
"Everyone can think about it seriously, but we only have two days to think about it."
"And the number of places is limited. Once the number of people who decide to participate is reached, no more people will be admitted."
Fang Yuan spoke again.
The number limit was deliberately stated to scare them.
The more people support it, the easier things will be. Fang Yuan doesn’t know this.
"Shilang Fang, why do we need to limit the number of people?"
"With more people, wouldn't it be easier to build roads and communities?"
Someone quickly discovered this problem and asked confusedly.
Everyone looked at Fang Yuan with different expressions, wondering if Fang Yuan would deceive them.
"You will know after thinking about it."
"The imperial court wants to cultivate new families to compete with the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes."
"There are too many aristocratic families, and the court will be overwhelmed and unable to support so many families."
Fang Yuan explained.
"That's it."
"Fang Shilang, although we want to participate, what if we are targeted by Five Surnames and Seven Hopes?"
Someone else asked.
They want their family to develop and surpass the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes.
But among them, they will definitely be attacked by the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes. Can they withstand the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes?
These words asked everyone about their thoughts and concerns.
"Here are two solutions."
"First, everyone who cooperates with the imperial court to build roads and communities will form a team. People in the team support each other and support each other. I believe that the five surnames and seven hopes will be afraid."
"Second, I guarantee in my own name that I will provide you with force protection, and I will help you solve any difficulties that involve force."
"Also, to make a digression, what I said in Luoyang only represents myself and does not represent the court."
Fang Yuan said slowly.
When everyone heard Fang Yuan's force protection, they almost wanted to laugh.
After all, they know how powerful Wu Xing Qi Wang is.
But suddenly thinking of the powerful weapon in Fang Yuan's hand, they endured it.
And I feel that Fang Yuan should really have the confidence to protect them with force.
Just think about the change of the patriarch of the Dugu family. It only takes one night to change the dynasty.
However, they obviously overestimated Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan just shocked the clan soldiers last night, and Dugu Bo did the rest.
"Shilang Fang, don't you represent the court, only yourself?"
Someone asked.
Although they are just doing it to make money.
But Fang Yuan himself is still the imperial court, the difference is quite big.
"You can just take care of it yourself."
Fang Yuan chuckled.
No specific explanation.
Everyone looked at each other and finally understood.
The imperial court did not want to offend Qi Wang, the fifth surname, so it asked Fang Yuan to step forward and take charge.
"Okay, let's end the meeting here and disperse."
"I will return to Chang'an City tomorrow. If any of you are willing to cooperate, come to Chang'an City to sign a contract with me."
Fang Yuan smiled.
It has been several days since I left Chang'an City, so I have to go back and check on Du Miaoyan's condition.
And Fang Yuan wants to let the aristocratic families present know that even without them, he can still find a cooperative aristocratic family.
"So urgent?"
"Shilang Fang, can you go back in two days?"
"It's rare for you to come over, so we'll do our best to be landlords."
The aristocratic families are indeed a little anxious.
They want to go back and discuss it before deciding whether to cooperate.
But Fang Yuan will go back tomorrow, and they don't have enough time to discuss.
But if Fang Yuan just goes back like this, is there really a quota limit?
"No, thank you."
"The bitch is pregnant and has to go back."
Fang Yuan shook his head and refused their offer to stay.
This is what Fang Yuan wants to see, so he cannot stay.
Everyone felt sorry, but when they heard Fang Yuan mention Du Miaoyan, they couldn't force her to stay anymore.
After a while, everyone dispersed, and Fang Yuan stayed at Dugu's house, being entertained by Dugu Bo.
"Master Fang, when will we start cooperating?"
Dugu Bo asked.
He wants to cooperate with Fang Yuan immediately.
Buy important land and choose the best road.
Now I have just taken the position of the head of the Dugu family, and it is not yet stable.
At this time, you need to have deeper cooperation with Fang Yuan to get Fang Yuan's support.
As for the stability within the clan, all he needs to do is find his second brother and put him under house arrest.
"If you are in a hurry, just build a road first. Build a road from Luoyang City to Chang'an City."
Fang Yuan thought for a while and said.
It would be good for him to start right away.
Since Dugu Bo is so knowledgeable, then I will satisfy him.
"How much money do I need to invest?"
Dugu Bo's eyes suddenly lit up.
Luoyang City and Chang'an City are two large cities.
If the two cities successfully open a road, there will definitely be no shortage of people.
The more people flow, the more money you will receive from future charges, and the payback time will be faster.
"I'm not sure about this yet. Let me first let you calculate how long it is and how much total cost it will cost."
Fang Yuan shook his head and said.
Fang Yuan is not sure how far it is from Luoyang City to Chang'an City.
Moreover, it is no longer up to him to settle these matters. Hong Xu Qinggao and Xue Jiaoyan are responsible for them.
"How about starting first?"
"Can I add it after you calculate the total cost and investment?"
Dugu Bo thought for a while and said in a deep voice.
Now that we have decided to cooperate, it will be the same no matter what time.
He couldn't let others take advantage of such a good road.
"It's not impossible."
"Since you are in a hurry, then hire someone to start the work here."
"Start from the official road and expand it to the width of four carriages walking side by side."
Fang Yuan glanced at Dugu Bo and smiled.
It can be seen that Dugu Bo is very anxious.
"Okay."
"I'll arrange for someone to do it later."
Dugu Bo has no objection.
Afterwards, Fang Yuan told him some precautions.
Originally, Fang Yuan wanted to leave these projects to his own people.
Of course, our own people certainly cannot do that much, but the imperial court has plenty of troops.
When it comes to the imperial army, the money first enters the treasury from Dugubo and others, and then goes to the hands of the soldiers. The treasury is equivalent to filling part of the money in.
Next, Fang Yuan rested for one night and left Luoyang City after breakfast the next day.
Before leaving, the two mid-sized family patriarchs found Fang Yuan and signed a cooperation agreement with Fang Yuan.
Working hard, Fang Yuan returned to Chang'an City in more than a day and learned about the situation in Chang'an City.
"Haha, are you going to start spreading my comments again?"
Fang Yuan chuckled.
His story in Luoyang City was reported back.
There was a voice in Chang'an City, saying that he had brought a blunderbuss to kill Dugu Xiongba.
"Should we introduce something to sell to divert people's discussion?"
Du Miaoyan suggested.
She saw that the public opinion was not big yet, so she waited for Fang Yuan to come back before handling it.
"No need, there is more shocking news coming out soon."
Fang Yuan smiled and said.
Subsequently, a large number of temporary workers were recruited in the name of Fangyuan Cement Factory.
The price of temporary workers is the same as that of regular workers, and they also include food and accommodation, but they will no longer be recruited after the temporary work is completed.
As the news spread, people knew that Fang Yuan was going to build roads again, and there were many people responding, because the wages at the cement factory were high and the food was very good.
I originally regretted not joining Fangyuan Factory, but now I no longer regretted it. I responded immediately, and people all over the place screamed to apply, showing that they were willing to endure hardship.
One recruitment instantly defeated Fang Yuan's unfavorable news and caused a great shock.
Afternoon.
Fang Yuan returned to the household department to work.
"Hey, Mr. Fang is back."
Cui Zhentang happened to meet Fang Yuan and said in a strange tone.
"Where are you going, Mr. Cui?"
Fang Yuan smiled calmly.
The two of them stood at the door and were polite.
"Go and have a good relationship, so that some people don't take my position!"
Cui Zhentang said with a soft smile.
The eyes staring at Fang Yuan are particularly sharp.
He has received news from the clan that Fang Yuan and Li Shimin have reached some agreement.
Fang Yuan went to Luoyang City and reached an agreement with the Dugu Family in order to compete for his position as Minister of Household Affairs.
Cui Zhentang was very angry about this, so he went to various ministers and ministers to exchange feelings in the past few days.
"The one with the greatest concern is the one above us."
"Servant Cui, go ahead and see who wins in the end."
Fang Yuan smiled slightly and said.
Turn a blind eye to Cui Zhentang’s glare.
"We'll see!"
Cui Zhentang was very angry.
He naturally knew that the emperor was the one who played a key role.
But if Tang Jian recommended it, and if some people of similar status were invited to recommend it, it would be difficult for the emperor to refute the opinions of the ministers.
Fang Yuan smiled slightly, separated from Cui Zhentang, and returned to his office.
As Fang Yuan returned to work again, the atmosphere in the household department changed again.
Now it is no secret that Fang Yuan and the emperor have reached some agreement.
The officials who used to be arrogant towards Fang Yuan now regret it to death, fearing that Fang Yuan will really take that position.
The person who originally worked with Fang Yuan immediately turned to Cui Zhentang after learning that Cui Zhentang was about to be promoted to the Minister of Household Affairs. Now he regrets it to death.
They immediately went to Fang Yuan to report their work and beg for Fang Yuan's forgiveness.
With Fang Yuan's return, Chang'an City is undercurrent.
