One is a tribal leader in a remote place with a population of only a few thousand.
Although he is said to be a tribal master, he is actually not one who has been granted the title himself? The tribal masters of Hongze are not even as handsome as the Xiongnu or Xianbei. They face the danger of being annexed and attacked every day, and they will be looked down upon by others after they leave.
The other one is an upright official of the imperial court.
Even if he is a small county magistrate who has not yet been established, he still gets a salary from the court and has face in front of others.
There is almost no need to worry about this multiple-choice question.
After Cao Peng finished speaking, Geng Qing immediately changed his title and called himself Xiaguan.
But Cao Peng also came up with the option to buy... How is this possible!!! Didn't you hear that I called myself a lower official?
Qiu Nu and others looked at Geng Qing with eyes full of envy, jealousy and hatred.
Just now they were secretly laughing, so what if you, Geng Qing, have a good son? Are you going to be taken over by Cao Peng in the end? You can't even keep your own territory... But in the blink of an eye, the situation suddenly changed. This Geng Qing actually wants to
How could Qiu Nu and others feel embarrassed to become an official of the imperial court, and also the head of a county? They were going crazy!
When the Thirty-Six Divisions of Hongze were established, except for a few people, they were from official families.
The most prominent among them is the descendant of Dou Lan's ancestor, the general and champion Dou Xian. Further down, the eldest is Li Qi, who later came by marriage, and was granted the title of school captain. The other tribal leaders also
It was an official position as big as sesame and mung bean. With a little power at the beginning, a group of people gathered together to form an independent tribe.
Even today, people still yearn for the canonization of the imperial court.
Now that Geng Qing has suddenly become the county magistrate of Hubao County, which was just a myth, he will be envied by many people if word spreads.
Cao Peng laughed!
“Since County Magistrate Geng agrees with my plan, let’s let it be settled.
Please ask County Magistrate Geng to submit the roster of troops as soon as possible, and then in the spring, you can go to Hongshagang to supervise the construction of the new city."
"Your Majesty, thank you General for your support."
When he sat down again, Geng Qing still couldn't believe that he had become an official of the imperial court.
His head was dizzy and his feet were a little weak, as if he were stepping on clouds. Even when Qiu Nu and others congratulated him, he just laughed stupidly and couldn't even speak a complete sentence. After all, he was not Dou Lan.
He was a son of a distinguished family, not from a family of officials. He became an official all of a sudden, and even he felt a little dizzy.
Cao Peng coughed and called everyone's attention.
"The imperial court has issued an edict to establish a county in Hexi.
However, if there are less than five counties under the rule, it is not enough to establish a county. Today, Hongshui County in Hexi has begun construction, and Lianbao is closer to completion. After that, Fengmingbao and Hubao will break ground in the next year, and there will be four counties.
, there is still one county missing and needs to be considered. I originally wanted to build a military fort on the basis of Hongshuiji to commemorate the illustrious martial arts of the Hexi Tun Army. Unfortunately, General Dou did not come, I am afraid he would not agree.
I had to put the matter aside for now and talk about it later.
The second thing I invite you to come to today is about the future development of Hexi.
In the spring of next year, I will officially serve as the governor of Hexi County. So I made a simple plan and discussed it with the princes."
Wang Shuang and Cai Di immediately stepped forward and placed the prepared scrolls beside the adults.
Bu Zhi coughed lightly, stood up and said, "I will read out the contents of this plan to everyone."
The entire plan is divided into three parts.
The first is the census.
Regardless of whether they are Han people or Hu people, they must all be registered in a unified register.
This matter must be concluded before the end of the year. If the tribes that have not yet submitted their rosters in the spring of the next year will be regarded as treason, Cao Peng will send troops to conquer. By then, he will not be as polite as he is now.
.
The second is the promotion of the farming order.
In the spring of next year, Hongshui County and Lianbao will be the first to implement the Farming Order.
However, unlike the previous farming, Hexi's farming focused more on military farming, which was the system that Cao Peng had been considering integrating soldiers and farmers, and integrating military and animal husbandry. He also established military offices in Hongshui County and Lianbao to take charge of farming matters.
.This already belongs to the category of the military system. However, many specific rules and regulations are not yet complete and need to be explored during implementation.
When implementing farming orders and livestock roads, Hexi County will propose many preferential policies.
In addition to the policy of fielding in the Central Plains, there were also orders to open up wasteland and plant trees. For every acre of wasteland, ten trees must be planted. The desolate scene of the northwest loess high slopes in later generations was still fresh in Cao Peng's memory. During the land reclamation
At the same time, he must also consider the issue of vegetation. In any case, he does not want the green land in front of him, the south of the Yangtze River, to become a wasteland because of him. When the forest planting order was established, many people were not very cautious
Understand. In fact, historically, the desolation of the Hexi region only occurred hundreds of years or even nearly a thousand years later.
But Cao Peng still stubbornly insisted on setting up the forest planting order.
Hexi people are no strangers to the Tuntian Order.
As early as the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, there had been measures to farm in Hexi. And the ancestors of the great people in Hongze were the villagers at that time.
Although there is a big difference between Cao Peng's military-style farming and the farming that everyone knows.
Everyone can still agree...
The third item was beyond everyone’s expectation.
Cao Peng will establish the Hexi County Chamber of Commerce in Hexi.
This chamber of commerce is under the name of the government and is a branch of the government.
The role of this institution is to coordinate various transactions between the Hu and Han. Since the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the Hu and Han have been hostile and have frequent exchanges. Materials from the Central Plains were transported outside the Great Wall through merchants and merchants, and items such as cattle, sheep, and fur from outside the Great Wall were also transported.
They were continuously sold to the Central Plains. However, due to various reasons, cattle and sheep outside the Great Wall often did not earn enough profits, and silk and other items from the Central Plains were extremely expensive, making it impossible for the Hu people outside the Great Wall to purchase them.
The Chamber of Commerce mediates and balances these contradictions.
On the one hand, it increased the profits of the Hu people, and on the other hand, it attracted more merchants from the Central Plains to come to Hexi to trade with the Hu people.
The leaders of the Hu tribe couldn't help but be very interested after hearing this.
"But I don't know how to set up this chamber of commerce?"
"The chamber of commerce has one chief executive, and according to specific circumstances, six small chief executives are established to handle specific affairs.
However, all merchants in Hexi County must register with the Chamber of Commerce.
Anyone who disrupts the Hexi County Market without registration will be shot and killed. At the same time, the Chamber of Commerce will try its best to protect your interests. If your interests are infringed, you can submit it to the Chamber of Commerce. If it can be resolved through arbitration, we will try to resolve it; if not, we will try our best to resolve it through arbitration.
If a settlement is reached privately, it will be submitted to the government, which will be responsible for resolving the dispute.
In short, the main purpose of establishing this chamber of commerce is to solve problems for the public.
The final decision of the Chamber of Commerce is sacred and inviolable.
If anyone dares to offend the interests of the Chamber of Commerce, he will be treated as official territory and the whole land of Hexi, and he will be expelled at the least, and conscripted at the most serious."
After the words fell, there was a silence in Outuo.
Everyone is calculating the stakes involved.
If you can conduct normal transactions, buy and sell, and obtain the various supplies you need, it wouldn't be a bad thing.
"Then who is the chief executive of the Chamber of Commerce and who is the chief executive of the six minor branches? How are they arranged?"
"General Cao has made arrangements for the selection of the leader of the big group. But don't worry, everyone, this person has quite a lot of connections and prestige with the fortress, and he will definitely not disappoint everyone. In addition, everyone has chosen the leader of the six small groups.
After that, the Chamber of Commerce submits a report. If approved by the government, you can take up the position of head of a small business and receive corresponding salary."
"Selected by us?"
The adults were shocked and overjoyed.
"This selection will be conducted under the supervision of the government and based on the principles of openness, fairness and justice. You can rest assured."
For a time, there was a lot of discussion in Ou Tuo, and everyone was whispering to each other.
Everyone realizes that this small position at the head of the line will bring huge benefits to each of them.
Geng Qing looked relaxed and did not participate in the discussion.
He is already satisfied!
Winning the position of Chief Hu was beyond his expectation. As for the position of Chief of the Small Line, it seemed that there was no need to participate in it.
People should be content!
If he were to participate in the selection of the leader of the small group, he would definitely be hostile to everyone.
He only needs to be a good Hu leader, that's enough... As for those merchant affairs, it's better not to touch them again.
My heart was filled with gratitude to Cao Peng.
At the same time, he was secretly worried that although Cao Peng had said that the matter of Wubao would be discussed later.
But Dou Lan did not attend this meeting, and Cao Peng would never give up. Sooner or later there will be a military disaster in Hongshuiji... And his son Geng Jun is still in Hongshuiji, wouldn't he be in trouble? Geng Jun suddenly regretted it.
, when evacuating from the Li family ranch, Geng Jun should not have been allowed to leave. If he had known this, he would have kidnapped the kid back.
He secretly glanced at Cao Peng, only to see that Cao Peng looked indifferent and was joking with Pang Tong and others.
“My lords, this matter cannot be decided in one day.
This selection issue can be discussed slowly. The top priority is to enter the roster and complete the population calculation of Hexi as soon as possible."
Cao Peng coughed and said, "That's just the way it is, and that's the situation.
Those who agree must sign the agreement in front of you, and those who disagree can leave now, please make your choice."
After saying that, Cao Peng got up and went to Outuo.
The generals also followed and filed out.
In the blink of an eye, in the huge Ou Tuo, apart from the other adults, only Bu Zhao Jia Xing and Pang Lin were left.
This also further demonstrates Cao Peng's attitude: Those who obey me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish.
If you cooperate, everyone will make a fortune together; if you don't cooperate, you are my enemy!
All the adults looked at each other in shock at Cao Peng's resolute move. After a while, Qiu Nu took the initiative to sign the contract.
"In the future, please take care of me, gentlemen."
His move immediately attracted many people.
Several tribal adults from Hongze signed their names one after another and handed them to Pang Lin. Those who were hesitant also made up their minds when they saw Qiu Nu and others making their choice. This is probably Cao Peng's last ultimatum.
Bar……

Outside the Ou, the ice city shines with crystal brilliance in the sun, which is extremely moving.
Cao Peng stretched his body, turned around and said, "Ten days later, we will send troops to Hongshuiji!"
Shi Yuan doesn’t have to go this time, he can stay at home and have a good rest. Yuan Zhi, I need you to pay more attention this time.”
Pang Tong smiled indifferently and nodded in agreement.
Xu Shu, on the other hand, held up his hands and said: "I have my wish, but I dare not ask for your ear!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation at ***(***.***),*
