The convoy's return to Jiangdu was not very fast, and it took a long time before it arrived in Luoyang.
Wang Jian learned about the situation in Luoyang City, rested for two days, and then continued on his way.
When he left, there were several more beauties, all specially prepared for him by Luoyang officials.
This kind of flattery is very good, and he will accept everyone who comes.
The convoy left Luoyang and continued moving forward.
They also passed through several towns along the way. Wang Jian was aware of the current situation and sent troops to clean up the local tycoons who were doing evil.
These rich families occupy most of the resources, whether it is land, wealth, food, or beautiful women.
The army not only eradicated many rich people, but also rescued many beauties.
Dugu Sheng knew Wang Jian's hobbies very well, so he always selected a group of people to replenish Wang Jian's harem.
This group may not all be better than the more than 100 people he left behind, but there will be one or two among them who are stunning and not inferior to Yin Yue.
This is normal. There are beauties everywhere, it just depends on whether you have the eyes to discover beauty.
Of course, Wang Jian could not refuse Dugu Sheng's gift.
If he refuses, wouldn't it be a waste of his subordinates' good intentions?
Naturally, I had to test the technology that day to see if it was worth packing up and taking away.
Those who are worthy will be added to more than a hundred people, and those who are not worthy will be rewarded to the subordinates, or taken away. When they arrive in Jiangdu, they will be given to hundreds of officials, generals, etc. Anyway, it is all done casually.
This is not because he is a bad person. No matter what happens to the people he rewards, his subordinates will definitely have to pay for them.
Even if you don't like it, you will definitely have enough food and clothing for daily use, and it can be regarded as a place to retire.
On the contrary, those who follow him are even more miserable. They share a king slip with so many people, and they may not be able to eat it again in the future. That is a widowhood, which is even more tragic.
After stopping and walking all the way to Jiangdu, a large clean area was cleared.
And the number of women in the harem he brought with him totaled one hundred and fifty. As for the more supplies, that was because some of them were left in the local area.
Some local officials were also cleared, and some young officials were selected or sent from Jiangdu, Chang'an and other places, so that the various places could operate normally.
Even so, there are still big gaps, so we can only make do with them for now.
At worst, there will be a large-scale imperial examination to select talents from poor families.
However, after these people from poor families become officials, it won't be long before powerful landlords from aristocratic families appear again.
This is unstoppable. The plundering of social resources has always been caused by big fish eating small fish, and small fish eating shrimps, which is slowly accumulated.
The powerful people he is cleaning up now are nothing more than the rise of former poor families who plundered resources.
Clean up a circle, then grow a circle, maybe wait for the next purge, or new powerful people to rebel against the elector again.
Wang Jian was helpless. People's hearts are greedy, and no matter what the system is, it will create a gap between the rich and the poor.
Once there is a gap, society will become unbalanced again, and eventually the world will have to change again, and the cycle continues.
He is not a great talent and cannot come up with an appropriate system at all. He can only make do with it first and look at the situation later.
If it doesn't work, clean it again and cultivate another batch.
I just don’t know when that will be, maybe he has already become an immortal.
In boredom, the huge team returned to Jiangdu. The remaining group of sergeants continued to clean up under the leadership of Dugu Sheng.
He couldn't wait that long. This journey took him three months.
Although he was living a leisurely life, someone new would come to check his skills in a few days, and the cost of food and clothing would not be reduced at all.
But he doesn't like this, it's too troublesome, and he spends most of his time in the carriage. Even if he gets out of the carriage, it's still a new environment, which may not necessarily meet his requirements.
So he regretted it without any courtesy and asked Dugu Sheng to continue sending people to deal with it while he left as quickly as possible.
Fortunately, there were not many left, and he planned to send Dugu Sheng to the south to continue cleaning up the rest.
There are also many beauties in the south. Dugu Sheng must understand what he means.
Similarly, sending Dugu Sheng there can also cause the Dugu clan to be ostracized by some noble families in the world.
After all, Dugu Sheng and Dugu Feng were both in Jiangdu and Luoyang, so their power was not small.
If you are ostracized or even isolated in this way, you can only rely on him, which will save you a lot of trouble.
As soon as he returned to Jiangdu Palace, Empress Xiao, Chen Ting, Wu Jiangxian and other women immediately came out to welcome him.
Wang Jian was also happy, there were all super beauties in the palace.
It's been almost half a year since I went out this time, and it's been a very hard time.
He understood, so he carried the girls to the inner hall of Daye Hall without any courtesy and went about his duties as a man.
Fortunately, there were not many women in Jiangdu Palace. Most of them followed him out, so there were less than twenty people.
When he went to court the next day, he was still in high spirits.
After listening to the memorials of Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and others, I knew that Jiangdu was in the south, and I felt satisfied.
The south is developing quite quickly, but the speed of clearing out powerful families is a bit slow.
There's nothing you can do about it. He's not the emperor after all, and he doesn't have that much power. He needs to handle a lot of things.
After Li Zitong was destroyed, Jiangnan, the south and even central Sichuan belonged to his territory.
Local officials have been dispatched to manage these places, and everything is still recovering.
The autumn harvest has passed, and the harvest is not bad, and some farmers can support themselves.
As for the migrant workers who were working for relief, they were okay. Wei Zheng was here. Although corruption among them was endless, and he killed dozens of them, it was still within a certain range.
Some factories have also appeared in the south, all of which are related to handicrafts. Their development is not particularly fast, but there are already signs.
The fastest growing ones are salts.
In reality, very few people actually eat sea salt. Don’t look at the endless sea, or even the nuclear radiation that made salt sales crazy.
Unfortunately, most of what we eat is well salt, which has nothing to do with nuclear radiation.
Because well salt is good and can extract a large amount of chemical materials, making salt is just a side trip, but the quantity is so high that there is no need for sea salt.
But in this world, well salt digging is very troublesome and dangerous.
On the contrary, sea salt is simple, and the sea is not polluted at all.
Using cement technology, more than ten large-scale sea salt manufacturing plants were built on the seaside, and the output of salt exploded.
In ancient times, grain, oil, salt and cloth were the foundation. These were the basis for food and clothing.
Even salt is extremely expensive and many civilians cannot afford it, but it is a necessity and they will be powerless if they cannot eat it.
The presence of sea salt has also brought certain help to peace in the world.
With all the developments in Jiangdu, Wang Jian was able to gain some points. He was so happy that he rewarded some of the women, gold, silver and jewelry he brought back to his subordinates.
In particular, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and others were trying to woo them.
