Just as Zhang Chunhua analyzed, it is not that Yang Song does not have the "deal" of "Hanzhong" in his heart, but the goal of cooperation will only be to assist the forces of Han, especially Yonghou...
The enmity between the Marquis of Shu Liu Zhang and the Tianshi Mansion was too deep. If the Marquis of Shu entered Hanzhong, everyone in the Tianshi Mansion would probably be unlucky, and Yang Song's heart was in turmoil.
The Yang family, who was born in Yang Song, has been in Hanzhong for generations, and he has no intention of coming to Chu State to develop...
People know themselves, and Yang Song knew that he was nothing in the Chu Kingdom these days. The reason why the King of Chu valued him was because of his status in the Tianshi Mansion!
If he surrendered to Yonghou or to the Han Dynasty, the situation would be different.
When Yonghou entered Hanzhong, his status would actually rise. After all, the situation in Hanzhong was also very complicated and had a high cohesion among the people. Therefore, the appointment of officials from the old Tianshi Mansion would still be of great help to the situation in Hanzhong.
As long as he wasn't Liu Zhang, who was brainless and easily fooled, Yang Song didn't worry about his "use value".
As for other colleagues from the Tianshi Mansion...
According to Yang Song's understanding, not only does he not have to worry about retaliation, but they will hug him tightly when the time comes, and he is completely able to have both sides.
This is indeed a reasonable guess...
Under such circumstances, unless they are Zhang Lu's cronies, no one else will bear grudge against Yang Song - the best example is Huang Chengyan. Everyone knows that he instigated Mrs. Cai's rebellion and planned Xianzhou, but now even Nanjun
Aren’t the nobles still close to Huang Chengyan?
For no other reason, because Huang Chengyan was the representative of Jingzhou, or more precisely Nanjun, and half of the Nanyang gentry in the Chu court, the other Nanjun gentry would inevitably reconcile and unite with him.
Giving up fighting for future interests for the sake of past grudges is not something that nobles would do.
Of course, although Yang Song has the consciousness of a nobleman, his own greed is also very inflated, which makes him affected by direct interests.
In the novel, Yang Song was also too greedy, which made Cao Cao unhappy. After taking Hanzhong, he appeased everyone, except Yang Song, who was beheaded to show the public.
Because of Yang Song's direct knowledge, Chu and Hanzhong quickly reached an agreement on the verge of "stepping on Zhang Lu's little heart".
Hanzhong will not only contribute part of the manpower and material resources to Hanshui Weir, but also purchase 500 pairs of plate armor at a high price.
Fortunately, it is relatively easy to transport goods from Hanzhong to Jingzhou. Although some sections of the Han River cannot be carried by large ships, at least they can be transported along the river. When the season is suitable and the water flow is not dry or fast, small boats can always transport goods slowly.
come over.
As for the five hundred plates of plate armor...
There will be Hanzhong's caravans transporting it on their own, so Chu does not have to worry about it - this is also one of the advantages of Tianshi Dao.
Because of the lack of direct trade routes and even limited indirect trade routes, Hanzhong was indeed the area least likely to be "cut" by Chu.
Wei, Youzhou, and Baitu may also trade via sea lanes. Not only official transactions, but Chu's ports also welcome merchant ships. As long as there are roads, low-cost, and high-quality salt and sugar, they can have a steady flow of goods.
The resources of the land flow from the people to the Chu State!
Not to mention the Central Plains, Wancheng and Shouchun are both large and semi-open import and export cities.
As for the northwest and other places... After all, they are all forces supporting the Han Dynasty, and the internal circulation of goods is very easy. But for the Chu State, just letting the wealthy families in the Central Plains act as middlemen is equivalent to indirectly recruiting the entire country outside Yizhou.
The wool of the auxiliary Han forces.
Because of Liu Zhang's ban, transaction costs in Yizhou have been greatly amplified, and it has become particularly difficult to transport goods to Yizhou. However, as long as it is not a "big item" like horses, there is still some transaction volume.
Only Hanzhong is really beyond the reach of Chu State now...
For some private transactions, most of them were merchants from Hanzhong who came to Chu State along the river, then shipped goods, purchased, and then went back around the Central Plains. If you dare to take this route, you must have good connections in Guanzhong and Guanxi!
Tianshi Dao cannot bury too high-end traitors, but it is easy to bury spies among the people. With their cooperation, Tianshi Dao's caravans can move easily among the people, especially outside Chu and Yizhou, those chaotic
place.
Counting this, this is the first time that Chu State has gathered in Hanzhong...
Of course, this is not the intention of the white picture. It is just brought to you, so you can just pick it up.
What Bai Tu is more concerned about is that the Hanshui Weir project can be carried out smoothly.
Because Hanzhong needed "people" to produce goods, Bai Tu also specially called Li Yan and emphasized to him that he should pay attention to the leaders of the laborers coming from Hanzhong, and also sent a note to the Ministry of Rites to increase the input and investment of the Ministry of Rites in the Hanshui Weir project.
Chuxue education.
Originally, due to the gathering of a large number of workers, entertainment such as opera and opera was needed to follow up. At the same time, the Ministry of Rites would also arrange personnel to teach and provide guidance. Now that someone is coming from Hanzhong, it is natural to pay more attention to the latter!
When Hanzhong arrives, there will be five thousand Ji workers and five hundred team leaders - that is, craftsmen with some commanding ability or simple laborers.
After all, Ji Zao workers cannot be fully automated...
And according to Hanzhong, these five hundred people will bring their close relatives and family members to Chu. After the project, it is up to them to decide whether to stay in Chu or return to Hanzhong.
This is a major project that will take several years, and even in Zhang Lu's opinion, it may take more than ten years.
Similarly, the five thousand Ji laborers also need to be "renewed" by the Chu State themselves every year. Anyway, it is a one-time deal!
But this involves a question - among these five hundred people, will there be anyone with the purpose of spreading the Tao of Heavenly Masters?
Bai Tu, Lu Su and others also discussed this situation and concluded that it was unlikely, but they had to take precautions.
Ordinarily, given the social conditions at this time, the conditions for "faith victory" are not met.
What's the use of "Celestial Master's Way" no matter how ferocious it is taught?
In the absence of a close connection between the Chu State and the Hanzhong Celestial Master's Mansion, no matter how widely the spread spreads, Bai Tu can directly appoint a "Chu Celestial Master" to take over, and the Chu State's sect will only fall towards the Chu State's imperial court...
Confucians in Chu State are almost going to have the surname Chu. The only way out is to actively integrate into Chu learning, let alone the Tao of Heavenly Masters?
And in the final analysis, Tianshi Tao is not a sect that tends to preach or expand, especially the Tianshi Tao revised by Zhang Lu, it is just to facilitate local management.
However, considering that since these people are willing to drag their families and leave their hometowns, they may be true believers in Tianshi Tao, so we still have to be careful.
Firstly, it is to avoid the impact of widespread spreading on Chu studies, and secondly... what is even more worrying is that someone will take this opportunity to secretly develop private spies.
As for secretly learning skills, that is secondary. If you want to take away the results of secretly learning, that will only happen in a few years.
Although Bai Tu cares about the confidentiality of technology, he has never been so scrupulous that he dared not use it, especially civilian technology. He cares more about progress rather than blockade.
This will be a "test" for the Ministry of Rites and Chu Xue, but after all, it is the home court of the Chu Kingdom, so Bai Tu is still very confident.
At the same time, it was also a good opportunity to understand Tianshi Dao and cultivate the seeds that would influence Tianshi Dao in the future after entering Hanzhong, so Bai Tu did not refuse this batch of manpower support.
